CHAPTER 944: CHAPTER 942: LOST HIS LIFEBLOOD

"Xue Kun, how dare you hit me!" Lu Hao was furious once again!

"What the hell if I hit you?! If you have the guts, tell your dad, and tell mine while you’re at it! You don’t even know my sister! If they don’t beat you up, I’ll take your surname!" Xue Kun shouted angrily.

"Uh... What?" Lu Hao was dumbfounded. He looked around, then stared at Liang Lan, "Isn’t she Xue Lin?"

"Xue Kun, hit him!" Xue Lin’s face turned steel blue.

Claiming there’s a marriage engagement, yet not knowing what she looks like—what an insult to a girl!

And calling Liang Lan her, what’s up with that? What, she isn’t as pretty as Liang Lan!

"Alright, big sis!"

Xue Kun accepted his order and started kicking fiercely at Lu Hao!

Lu Hao now understood who Xue Lin really was!

Simultaneously, he realized this beating was for nothing!

Just as Xue Kun said, if his dad found out, he’d be the one getting a beating!

Still, at the same time, he was immensely puzzled!

When did this exceedingly rebellious woman, Xue Lin, become so docile?!

Actually serving others?!

Am I dreaming?!

He remembered that when he was at home, his father told him that marrying into the Xue Family, he should learn how to serve Xue Lin, as she was clueless about everyday life—a complete spoiled young miss!

But today, looking at her, it’s not like that at all!

Is this a young miss?! Isn’t this a maid?!

Xue Kun saw through Lu Hao’s thoughts, and rolled his eyes saying, "Alright, don’t be shocked! I’m more shocked than you! My elder sister only acts this way in front of Lu Xiaobu!"

"You talk too much!" Xue Lin grabbed Xue Kun’s ear fiercely, blushing as she reprimanded.

The way it sounded was like she was being trained by Lu Xiaobu!

Even though that’s true, you can’t just say it!

Witnessing this scene, the anger within Lu Hao flared up once more!

What?!

His fiancée changed for someone else?!

And from a young miss to a maid?!

He worked hard to learn how to serve Xue Lin, only for his fiancée to be learning how to serve someone else!

Is there anything more humiliating than this?!

Isn’t this essentially saying he’s useless?!

If this gets out, he’d essentially be wearing a "green hat" permanently!

No way, this isn’t over!

"Xue Lin, Xue Kun, I’m saying this one last time, come home with me! I’ll let this matter slide!" Lu Hao gritted his teeth and said, "Otherwise, forget about your herbal business!"

The herbs they produce have always been of the highest quality and constitute a significant part of the Xue Family’s income!

All those Hundred-year-old ginseng and Centennial Ganoderma are provided by them!

Without these, even the Xue Family can’t afford to bear the loss!

"You’re threatening me?!" Xue Lin looked coldly at Lu Hao, "Fine! My Xue Family won’t do business with you anymore; let’s see who in the Heavenly Dynasty will!"

Might as well go for mutual destruction, who fears whom?!

"No need to rush." Lu Xiaobu waved his hand, "Mutual destruction with someone like him isn’t worth it! Isn’t it just mountains? Just wrap them up!"

"Hahaha!" Lu Hao suddenly burst into laughter, "Did I hear wrong? What did you say? Wrap them up?! Do you think it’s a dirt mound in your front yard? Saying you’ll wrap it up and it’s done?!"

He was about to die laughing!

He never expected this Lu Xiaobu was an idiot!

If it could be wrapped up, their Lu Family would’ve done it long ago!

Why wait till now?!

"Ignorant." Lu Xiaobu inquired about the location from Xue Lin, then made a phone call.

After a five-minute conversation, both parties were satisfied, and the deal was made.

"Director Fu! Just right, Lu Hao from Lu Family is here, why don’t you inform him?" Lu Xiaobu asked.

"Sure, although a statement will be issued, there’s no harm in notifying in advance!" Director Fu didn’t refuse.

Lu Xiaobu handed the phone to Li Jin, who placed it at Lu Hao’s ear.

"Hello, Lu Hao, right? I’m officially notifying you that everything around Yuling Peak and the surrounding mountains has been contracted by Lu Xiaobu, so in the future, don’t go up the mountains to collect herbs, unless you have Lu Xiaobu’s permission!" Director Fu simply explained.

Lu Xiaobu took back the phone smilingly and said, "Thank you, Director Fu, I’ll arrange for someone to sign the contract shortly!"

"Alright, I’ll wait." Director Fu nodded and said.

The call ended.

Looking at Lu Hao’s face, it was now completely pale!

His heart was filled with disbelief!

How could this be?!

Yuling Peak has been contracted?!

Contracted by Lu Xiaobu?!

Just like that with a simple phone call?!

Clearly, their Lu Family has been applying for it for decades but has never succeeded!

Why did Lu Xiaobu make it happen with just one phone call, even without appearing in person?!

This is impossible! Impossible!

Though he tried hard to deny it, he recognized Director Fu’s voice distinctly!

So, deep down he knew, this was real!

Yuling Peak was indeed contracted by this Lu Xiaobu!

Their essential herbs source was completely cut off!

He began to lose it!

Originally coming to find his fiancée, he unexpectedly lost their lifeline?!

Why?! Why is it like this?!

He won’t accept it! Unacceptable!

Why could Lu Xiaobu do it!!!

"Said you’re ignorant, and you didn’t believe it." Lu Xiaobu snorted.

Did he really think he’s the same as that Lu Family?!

Who is he?!

Lu Xiaobu!

Fifth on the Second Level Rich List, and just returned from Japan after sparking a fire, Lu Xiaobu!

His rank as fifth on the Second Level Rich List already signifies he has immense social credibility!

Plus, the recent trip to Japan heightened his social credibility to match, if not surpass, the top ranks of the First Level Rich List!

The Lu Family failed to contract Yuling Peak for decades, yet he did it with just one call!

This is what Lu Xiaobu’s name currently represents in terms of social credibility!

Some might ask, does the Lu Family lack social credibility?!

The answer is, yes, or very little!

Because their kind of Martial Artist Families don’t make it to the Rich List!

Martial artists frequently violating the law; these Martial Artist Families often don’t differ much from the Underworld!

How could the Rich List permit them to be listed, thereby granting them social credibility!

Others might ask, why don’t others, such as those at the top of the First Level Rich List, contract this treasure mountain?!

It’s simple, the Xue Family!

The Lu Family is protected by the Xue Family; they don’t dare provoke the Xue Family!

But, would Lu Xiaobu be scared?!

Hell no!

Thus, this treasure mountain effortlessly changed ownership!

Of course, the cost was significant!

The vast land cost Lu Xiaobu three billion!

This accounts for about one-third of Lu Xiaobu’s current assets!

But no matter!

Blew three billion, why so happy?!

Wakaka!
