Lu Ming was waiting anxiously in his office for the outcome when his phone finally rang. He took a deep breath and picked up the call. “How is it? Did you buy i

“Tlived up to my promise. Dr. Johnson liked you very much and suggested meeting with you. Actually, he didn’t know that Lu Ming was also your company. Otherwise, I think he would have considered it.”

Musk paused for a moment and continued, “This artificial satellite combines meteorology, communication, and navigation functions. Although we have the satellite now, the next steps won’t be easy. To send this star to the sky requires a rocket, and a rocket needs aerospace fuel.”

Aerospace fuel?

He remembered that it was fuel specially built for aircrafts.

In that case, it was really not easy to give a star. What was the point of having money if no one could buy them? Lu Ming rubbed his temples and said, “Do you know anyone who sells rockets? Or is there anyone from Dr. Johnson’s side?”

“There is a rocket, but it has been used two or three times before. The price can be relatively lower. As for the new one, it hasn’t been built yet. If you’re in a hurry, you can only buy a second-hand one.”

Musk suggested, “Actually, second-hand is not bad. The performance is quite good. Every time after a launch, the research institute will carefully perform safety and maintenance checks. If there are any problems, they can help you overhaul it or build a new one. What do you think?”

“As long as they have i

At least he did not have to put in any more effort to find it. It saved him some time.

Lu Ming thought of the last thing and asked, “Is there aerospace fuel there? If there is, I might as well buy it together.”

“The research institute has just run out of aerospace fuel. Moreover, they won’t be continuing to buy recently. After all, there’s a big problem with the oil companies. If you want, you can look around in China. I heard that there’s quite a lot of fossil fuel there. Many rich businessmen bought it from China.”

“Alright, I understand. How much did you spend this time? I’ll transfer the amount to your card.”

“11 billion yuan.”

To ordinary people, this might be an astronomical figure, but to the current Lu Ming, it was just a drop in the ocean. He had used more than this bit of money to develop his car. If he could use this opportunity to make Chu Jinyu happy, the money would not have been wasted.

After hanging up, he dialed a number and said, “I need aerospace fuel. Buy from wherever there is fuel. Can you do that?”

The sudden topic stunned Ji Yu for a few seconds. Why is he buying aerospace fuel? Has the company really built a rocket? No, there was no news at all.

“Can I ask what you’re planning to do?”

“My wife wants a star.”

When he said this, even a deaf person could hear his gentleness and doting. For a moment, Ji Yu did not know if she should be shocked that her junior had a wife or that he wanted to buy stars. For some reason, she suddenly felt suffocated in her heart. Then she forced herself to ask calmly, “Which missy

is it? She must be very outstanding, right?”

“That’s true. You’ve seen her before. She’s Chu Jinyu.”

His response was as expected.

If it was Chu Jinyu, they were quite compatible. Not only was she outstanding in appearance, but her ability and personality were also quite good. Perhaps she was the envy of many people.

Moreover, it was not that she had not seen the two of them interact. Chu Jinyu always tried to be nice to Lu Ming who seemed to have sensed something but did not stop her.

It seemed quite normal for them to get together.

Ji Yu deliberately ignored her complicated thoughts and said, “That’s good. Oh right, when is your wedding? Don’t forget to send me an invitation.”

Lu Ming chuckled and said, “Of course I won’t forget you. Shall I hand this matter to you?”

“Alright, no problem.”

Lu residence.

Tang Wenyi looked at the news on her phone screen in disbelief and could not help raising her voice. “That bastard actually got involved with the Chu family!? And they even got a marriage certificate?”

The Chu family?

Lu Yaohua, who was sitting on the sofa facing her, was stunned for a few seconds. He said, “Lu Ming and Chu Jinyu are married? Why didn’t he tell me about this? I’m his biological father, right? Don’t tell me he doesn’t want to have any elders at the wedding? Wouldn’t that be a joke to outsiders?”

He seemed to have forgotten that the two of them had cut ties with each other.

“Is that the main point? Chu Jinyu was originally my son’s wife!”

Tang Wenyi rolled her eyes in disregard of her image. In any case, her reputation in Shanghai was completely ruined. Without the Tang family as her backer, her friends would not even be bothered with her. But it was good too. She did not have much money now. In order to survive, she had no choice but

to sell her branded bags and clothes!

“I think this is all that bastard’s scheme! He deliberately embarrassed my son in public and then saved the damsel in distress! Ms. Chu lacks good judgment. How did the Iron Lady raise such a daughter? My son is clearly the best!”

Lu Yaohua thought to himself, It would be strange if she took a fancy to Lu Ze.

In comparison, Lu Ming and Lu Ze are like heaven and earth. Ms. Chu is not blind. Of course she knows who is better. Besides, Lu Ming Corporation has countless famous companies under it. He’d likely be on the Forbes Rich List this year.

He clenched his fists at the thought of this.

This was something that he could not do. This was his dream.

But his elder son had achieved it so easily. How could he not be envious and jealous?

“I told you not to pamper Lu Ze like this anymore! Why are you still like this?! Our company is gone. Do you want to make him a good-for-nothing?! He’s almost 30 years old! And he hasn’t done anything! How will he find a job in the future? When we die one day, do you want him to starve to death!”

Tang Wenyi, who had gotten used to this attitude of his, said, “Why are you shouting so loudly?! Didn’t I ask him to learn? He tired himself out going through your work documents and books recently. Can’t you be more tolerant of him? And he could answer all the questions I asked him. Doesn’t this prove

that he’s talented?”

Lu Yaohua was so angry that he sneered. “Three or four minutes of studying? You fell asleep just from reading. How dare you take this seriously and answer all the questions? You ask the first sentence on the first page every time! Even an idiot knows how to memorize it! You’re getting more and more

confused.”
