CH 102.2

Because Liang Chao was the challenged, it was up to him to choose the venue. The venue he chose for the challenge was the Capital Planet, and the Stone Gambling Association gave both sides three days of preparation time.

Capital Planet wasn’t too far away from Kipola, and three days was plenty of time for Lin Luo.

“Wow! Xiao Luo, you’re really amazing! You’re going through this method!” He Kun was very excited when he saw Lin Luo’s light brain display. There was nothing more cathartic than slapping someone’s face in public!

“That’s what it’s all about! Ruthlessly grind away at their morale! Let them know our PengCheng isn’t easy to mess with!”

“But that’s not enough.” Lin Luo still had a smile on his face.

“What else do you plan to do?” He Kun immediately became energetic when he heard the words and hurriedly asked.

Lin Luo smiled mysteriously, “Aren’t they underfunded? After all, they’re even resorting to these kinds of dirty tricks now, and we definitely don’t bother spend money to buy anything. Didn’t our company receive an invitation to the gambling stone gathering held by the Fifth Star Domain? The Xing family’s company started business at about the same time as ours, so they should have received an invitation as well. Since they lack raw materials, they definitely won’t let this opportunity pass…so when the time comes…”

“Ha ha ha ha, I understand!” He Kun’s eyes lit up with excitement, “Xiao Luo! You have got to take me with you!”

“Okay, no problem.” Lin Luo chuckled softly.

Lin Luo wasn’t the same as the despicable lowlife Xing Shang. He uses an open and honest approach. That was in part because he wanted to let Xing Shang know that he and Xing Mo weren’t soft persimmons that he could just pinch and knead!

“Vice President Lin, President Xing already knows the news from the Legal Department. The Legal Department asked, do you want to report today’s affairs to President Xing?” An ZiHao asked Lin Luo after seeing the light brain message.

“Well, since he already knows, let him know.” Lin Luo could see how busy Xing Mo was due to company affairs every day. He didn’t want Xing Mo to have to worry about these people, but since he already knew about it, there wasn’t any point in hiding it. He just wanted Xing Mo to be able to breathe a sigh of relief!

“Yes, Vice President Lin.” An ZiHao replied respectfully.

An ZiHao was actually someone who had come into contact with Lin Luo and Xing Mo from the very beginning. He originally thought that Lin Luo was a very good-tempered person with a particularly soft personality, but he hadn’t expected that he also had such a tough side. When Yin Ye transferred him to PengCheng Energy Company as an assistant to Lin Luo and Xing Mo, he was actually a little reluctant. After all, in his opinion, Lin Luo and Xing Mo were no different from everyone else who wanted to be attached to the Yin family. He didn’t even know why Yin Ye would treat the two of them so differently.

However, after the ridiculous “treason incident” before, he finally realized the merits of Xing Mo and Lin Luo.

Xing Mo turned out to be not a down-and-out noble young master, but a man with strength, ambition and responsibility. His business mind and vision weren’t at all inferior to Yin Ye, and he was even an extremely rare triple ability user. During the pirate incident in that dangerous moment, he stepped forward and saved so many people. He was a true hero!

Lin Luo was also not simply a nobody who relied on their lover’s support. He was a real genius, whether it was betting on stones or as an energy engineer.

During this period of time, An ZiHao had the most frequent contact with Lin Luo, and had discovered that Lin Luo had grown into a truly independent man without even knowing it.

After today’s events, An ZiHao was satisfied that that Lin Luo was indeed qualified to become PengCheng’s vice president. An ZiHao could even say with certainty that Lin Luo would definitely be able to stand on top of the Empire given time.

Capital Planet, Xing’s Energy Company, Conference Room

After learning that Liang Chao, the company’s chief stone gambling expert, was suddenly challenged by Lin Luo, all of the top executives of Xing’s Energy Company gathered in the conference room.

Although Xing’s company was controlled by Xing Shang and Xing ZhengYuan, it was founded by the power of the entire family. The Xing family all had some shares, so there were quite a few people in the meeting room that day.

And Liang Chao, as the company’s chief stone gambling consultant, sat at the head of the main seat. At that moment though, his complexion was ashen, and he was obviously very unhappy.

“What do you mean, Lin Luo suddenly challenged Master Liang?” Someone asked suspiciously.

“No matter what he means, Lin Luo is just a little middle class nobody, how can he possibly be compared with our Master Liang!” Those people who were accustomed to being rich and looking down at the poor couldn’t help but look at things this way.

“Winning against him is easier said than done. You don’t Lin Luo’s talent in stone gambling, right? As long as it’s a game, he almost never loses!” There were still some people in the Xing family who knew what they were getting into.

[Skull’s Little Theater]

Xing Family 1: Hmph! Hmph! That little poor person dare come to pick on us rich folk? [nose in air]

Xing Family 2: Hmph! I know! He is absolutely getting ahead of himself, isn’t he? Look at him; it’s like he thinks he’s people now! Hmph! [nose also in air]

Xing Family 3: Ah! Just wait! Good Master Liang Chao will get him for us. Obviously we hired him, so he must be better than some disgusting peasant boy.

Liang Chao: …. [T_T is it too late to run?]
