Chapter 462 - Towards
"Anyway, I hope you find that person soon. If father comes to know that someone is digging up that thing from ten years ago, he will, without a doubt, seek the rat out himself. Who knows what he will find at that time?" Guan Gao Huan remarked with a smirk.
His golden brown eyes flashed. "I just hope that father will not hurt that person too much, or else someone might cry, eh?"
Lu Jin icily put down the wine cup.
His friend seemed to be convinced that it was Lu Yin Ze who got the list.
"I have been watching him for a long time. I am sure the person is not him."
What he did not say was that he was no longer so sure anymore in the recent years.
His brother's changes had not been small.
Guan Gao Huan shrugged and drank wine again.
Since you're not listening, then so be it.
This was a matter between the two brothers. If their father ended up knowing this, then that would be the time when he would step in. When that time comes, he would no longer be so considerate of Lu Jin's feelings.
Lu Jin was annoyed by Guan Gao Huan's lackl.u.s.ter response.
"Aren't you too unoccupied lately?" He pointed out Guan Gao Huan's laziness.
"No, I am not. I only got this free time ever since that time when father beat me up. I am busy with the upcoming project."
"???"
Guan Gao Huan saw Lu Jin's questioning glance.
Of course, this guy was surprised. He did not mention to Lu Jin this big project after all. It was the biggest project he had to handle so far to make an impression on Old Guan, hoping to possibly consider him as the heir.
But since things had changed, he had to hasten the project development and reveal it to the public.
He planned to use this project to gain more fame and influence. At the same time, he would use this channel as a means to conquer the C City's underground market. It would be his way to become the King.
"It's a multinational project. A really big one," Guan Gao Huan said proudly.
Lu Jin ignored his boasting. "When do you plan to make a public announcement?"
"The project completion is nearing its end. Probably around three to four months."
Lu Jin paused, inwardly surprised.
This was too soon for an international project. Unless…
Did it mean that Guan Gao Huan had been preparing this project since a long time ago?
It looked like both of them had secrets of their own.
"Then I wish you good luck," Lu Jin only said these words to him.

Xiong Zhi had been busy lately.
ArtWorld was a huge success. As predicted, it got the attention of many people with good eyes for business and agencies around the globe. At least hundreds to thousands of tourist group packages were being booked every day. The feedback from international tourists were also perfect.
The trademark souvenirs were also high in sales.
It was still a bit too early, but many foreign companies were beginning to check the feasibility of opening a branch of ArtWorld in specific countries.
Of course, various surveys and observations were still underway before decisions were finalized.
The trend of ArtWorld was showing an extremely high potential, but it was only just a few months after all. Further data was still needed.
The greatest success though was that IZHI had jumped up in the ranking and fully entered the level of the biggest domestic companies.
Currently, in the domestic scope, many golden companies and investors wanted to cooperate with IZHI for future projects.
When these big corporations investigated IHZHI to check how good of a business partner they could be, they were shocked to find out that IHZHI's success rate in their projects was 100%!
There was not a single failure in any of their projects. All of them were striving and their profits were heading to even higher folds. The return rate of profits was so high that they were blinded.
It was very rare to see a company like this before. Not to mention, the owner of the company was even Xiong Zhi, the Xiong Heiress! Huge opportunities kept flowing in for IHZHI since ArtWorld. Not only that, IHZHI's development in the entertainment industry was also going well.
Their artists might not be as abundant in number as the other agencies, but each of their artists' development was well-planned and successful.
Song Xuantin's upcoming film gained nationwide attention, although the main reason was because of Xiong Wuyue, but the ending result was still positive after the PR's all-out efforts.
They were able to increase Song Xuantin's followers by two to three-fold after the whole farce, and affirmed her true talents in the national population.
Now, Song Xuantin became known for her good acting skills.
The subject, Song Xuantin, was currently with Xiong Zhi on the phone.
"I deserve a leave! Just one month!" She yelled over the phone.
Xiong Zhi frowned, pulling the phone away from her ears.
"Are you getting married that you need such a long leave? Many people are asking for you. This is a great chance to accept more projects and expand your influence. You better grab it."
Song Xuantin paled at the mention of 'more projects'.
"Xiong Zhi! This is too much! You are overworking your artist! At this point, I will really die from exhaustion!"
Xiong Zhi blankly put her phone further away from her again.
She ignored Song Xuantin's rambling and asked instead.
"Why are you answering Xiao Mei's phone? Where is she?"
"Because you won't answer your phone every time I call you! You traitor! You used and tainted my name as you wished, yet you... you did not give me any compensation! You're so heartless..." Song Xuantin started to cry.
She had not dated her Gu Zhen for a long time!
Xiong Zhi sighed.
Although she knew Song Xuantin was just acting like a baby, still, she indeed owed her friend.
"Fine. You can take your leave."
!!!
Song Xuantin's eyes lightened up, brighter than any stars.
"For three days."
Song Xuantin's eyes dimmed as if the fire was blown out.
What could three days do?!
She could only have lunch, then walk, dinner, lunch, then walk, and dinner again with Gu Zhen!
She needed to get one month of vacation to drag that internet addict away from his computer and lock him in an isolated island with just the two of them! Of course with white beach, candlelight, roses, and a large bed.
So three days was not enough at all!
"Xiong Zhi!!!! If you are going to give me three days, then just kill me! You! Just because you got your man's first time—"
"I haven't yet."
"—so you're acting all…eh?"
A long silence.
