Chapter 391: Chapter 224 – The Taking Off Peach Beguile!_3
“This is my first time dining at the Shi Xi Hotel, I’m unfamiliar with the chef’s skills and the taste of his exquisite dishes.”
“So, I’ve let the head chef prepare the house special!”
As he greeted Fang Mu, Feng Chenhao also politely acknowledged She Wan and Yin Nanzhen with a nod.
A common focus gathered on Fang Mu from the surrounding gazes.
But soon, their attention was diverted by She Wan standing next to him.
In Lu City, everyone is clamouring to attend the Lu Du Five Families’ gathering.
At these meetings, She Wan, the Noble Lady of the Lu Dushe clan, is always present.
But now, seeing her stand behind a young man in a servile manner made the members of the native clans in Lu City feel as if they were in some kind of fantastic spell.
All the diners at the Shi Xi Hotel are far from ordinary, many of them are from side branches of the Lu Du Five Families.
Gao Wenyuan, who belongs to the Lu Du Gao Clan, is one of the favorites among the side branches; he was uplifted to the main line this year.
This promotion elevated his in-family status above the side branch members.
However, Gao Wenyuan’s thoughts were completely different; he observed She Wan with a wary look.
No wonder She Wan had been absent from recent social gatherings, it seemed as if she’d vanished from Lu City.
As a Noble Lady, representing her family in social dealings was part of her duty.
Turns out, the She Family has made a connection with a Grandmaster Creator, even offering their Noble Girl as a serving maid to the Grandmaster’s disciple!
If this Grandmaster Creator really backs the She Family, the balance of power among the Lu Du Five Families might change sooner than later.
The She Family is bound to rise above the other four clans.
Upon hearing this, Gao Wenyuan apologized to his male companion and then promptly left the Shi Xi Hotel.
He intended to share the information with his family.
Feng Chenhao’s purpose to meet Fang Mu this time was twofold; the first was to discuss the future development of Peach Beguile.
Feng Chenhao was planning to relocate Peach Beguile’s headquarters to Lu City.
To highlight Peach Beguile’s branding, it needed an excellent location and a reputable craftsman to build it.
Feng Chenhao couldn’t handle these matters alone; he would need Fang Mu’s approval and help.
Additionally, he wanted to consult with Fang Mu concerning Peach Beguile’s future development strategies.
This time, Feng Chenhao intended to understand the matter clearly through his conversation with Fang Mu; he didn’t plan to bother Fang Mu with similar matters in the future.
Otherwise, it would seem as if he were incapable of managing Peach Beguile.
As if he couldn’t truly handle Peach Beguile’s affairs.
The second purpose was to ask Fang Mu how he might spend the money he earned.
In reality, there was no need for Feng Chenhao to seek Fang Mu’s opinion on this issue, he was entirely free to make his own decisions.
After all, the money was his share of the profits based on his ownership stake.
However, the dividend was so enormous that it left Feng Chenhao feeling somewhat frightened and unsure.
It was like suddenly becoming fabulously wealthy, almost too incredible to believe.
Furthermore, Peach Beguile was rapidly expanding, and Fang Mu was continually investing more money into it.
As a shareholder, he should also be investing proportionately.
But his grandfather had personally requested him to lend two million Dragon Rising Coins to Langya Biology.
If he lent the money to his family, he wouldn’t be able to follow Fang Mu’s pacing for investing in Peach Beguile.
Feng Chenhao wanted to discuss with Fang Mu about possibly covering this deficit with his future dividends.
Whether he should lend the money to his family would directly impact whether his father could be established as the family’s executor.
The power struggle within his family had been deeply imprinted in Feng Chenhao’s mind from an early age; naturally, he would strive for this winning opportunity.
After just a few brief exchanges with Feng Chenhao, Fang Mu could tell that Feng had something more to say.
Fang Mu directly said,
“I would choose the location for Peach Beguile’s flagship store myself, and you don’t have to worry about the decoration.”
“You only need to carefully manage the brand, which you have done very well so far!”
“And I believe you will do even better in the future!”
“I suppose there’s something else you want to say to me.”
“We are in a partnership, so feel free to say whatever is on your mind!”
Upon hearing this, Feng Chenhao laid bare his dilemma.
Since it involved using funds in advance, Feng Chenhao was extremely reluctant.
“Mr. Fang, my family wants to borrow two million Dragon Rising Coins from me to open a new industry in another province.”
“If I use this money now, I probably won’t be able to keep up with your investments in the future.”
“Would you mind if I use the money I made from Peach Beguile to support my family?”
Fang Mu didn’t expect the problem Feng Chenhao was so concerned about to be just this!
Feng Chenhao’s question left Fang Mu somewhat bemused for a moment.
“Given Peach Beguile’s current development, you could make two million Dragon Rising Coins in a month or so.”
“You don’t need to tell me about money that you can earn back within three months.”
“Moreover, this money is what you’ve earned yourself. When we first created Peach Beguile, I never intended to tie you up financially.”
“Your money is yours to spend as you please. You should yourself weigh the pros and cons of lending it to your family, instead of asking me.”
“After all, I am not familiar with Langya Biology’s situation and I can’t gauge how deep your attachment is to your family.”
Upon hearing Fang Mu’s words, Feng Chenhao felt as if a weight had been lifted.
He suddenly felt light-hearted.
At this moment, She Wan timely addressed Feng Chenhao.
“In Lu City, if you encounter any issues with managing Peach Beguile, you can directly call this number.”
“Take down this number, once you call it, someone will be there to help you!”

In She Wan’s view, Feng Chenhao seemed rather naive and would need some time and experience to mature.
Given Feng Chenhao’s mindset, many matters were likely beyond his control. It would be better if She introduced him to her family help.
The She Family could likely handle nine out of ten matters in Lu City.
If she recommended Feng Chenhao to the She Family, he wouldn’t have to contact Fang Mu every time there is a problem, saving Fang Mu a lot of trouble.
Being there when someone needs help can win favor, both Feng Chenhao and Fang Mu would likely appreciate her assistance!
