Chapter 108 - Preparation

"If anyone one of you would not attend this Sunday, then don\'t work on Monday! And the days after that!" Old Lu threatened the old people on the screen.

The shareholders and directors just smiled at Old Lu. How could they not attend this event when this lion Old Lu was so agitated about it? Moreover, they also want to meet this mysterious grandson of the lion Lu. With how Old Lu gave importance to this grandson of his, they somehow guessed that the second young master would be the successor of the Lu Empire. In other words, that boy would be their future boss.

So they all promise that they would attend the event.

In the different locations of the directors and holders, they also let their successor be prepared to attend the party with them. They all reminded their young one\'s that,

\'You have to meet your future boss this Sunday!\'

After the short meeting, Old Lu\'s personal assistant, butler Ding, came to him and bowed.

"Sir, we already distributed all the invitation cards. This is butler Zhou from Xiong Family. " Butler Ding handed the phone.

Old Lu glanced at it.

"Tell him I wish to speak with Old Xiong."

Butler Ding did what Old Lu asked.

He then put the phone on the table. It was on the loudspeaker mode.

"On what pleasure I have that you wish to speak with me, Lion Lu?" An old voice echoed in the room.

"You\'re still dramatic tiger Xiong. Is it bad to ask you how are you doing this time?" Old Lu said while he leaned on his soft cushion.

"It took you thirty years to ask me that? Just cut the chase." Old Xiong said. It was clear he was impatient.

Old Lu furrowed his brow. This tiger Xiong never failed to get on his nerves.

If it wasn\'t because of his precious grandson, he would not reach out to invite this stingy old man.

"My youngest grandson will be celebrating his 17th birthday. This is a big day. You should come."

The line was silent for a moment. Clearly,

Old Xiong was taken aback.

\'He called me just for this grandson of his?\'

"...is that how you invite people? Why would I care if it\'s your grandson\'s birthday? I don\'t even attend my own grandchildren\'s birthday." Old Xiong said languidly.

Old Lu stared darkly at the phone on the table. He reached out for it.

This old man! Really want to get on his nerves!!!

"Then don\'t come! Priscilla really made the right choice that he chose me over you!" Old Lu bring up the old times to annoy Old Xiong. He did not wait for Old Xiong\'s infuriated comment and hang up. He threw the phone on the wall.

What a despicable old man! He never changed!

Butler Ding was just silent. He looked at his phone that got broken. It\'s a good thing that when Old Lu said he would call Old Xiong he got this premonition that his phone would end up a fate worse than death. So he saved all the important files on his email and took out his memory card as well. He stopped bringing extra phone since thirty years ago. These two both did not change. They still at each other\'s throat.

Butler Ding steps forward and asked Old Lu.

"Should I sent the invitations to Mr. Xiong?"

Old Lu was silent. After a while, he answered.

"Send it."

\'No matter what, if he comes or not, depends on him.\'

But Old Lu believed that that stingy old man would come for whatever reason that old man came up with.

In the dark smoky room, a man in his thirties was holding his pipe. His long legs were stretched out. His well-built back was relaxed. His eyes were closed like he was taking a nap.

A young man slowly approached the man on the chair. The young man did not speak and just wait for the man in the chair to call him.

"What is it?" A deep detached voice sounded after a long while.

"S-sir, there \'s movement from Lu Mansion."

The man in the chair opened his eyes. His eyes were solid black. He turned his chair around to face the young man.

The young man bowed lower and was sweating inside. It was clear he feared the man in the chair. The young man could not tell what his boss was thinking. He could not see the man\'s expression behind the smoke. But he felt the cold stare from the man.

"Then?" The deep voice sounded again.

"W-we followed them and investigate them. I-its an invitation card."

Silence.

"The sample?" The man in the chair asked once more.

The young man quickly steps forward to hand an envelope.

The man in the chair accepted it. He opened the envelope.

When he saw the card, a glint flashed in those dark orbs.

Finally, he smiled. No, to be precise, he was laughing silently.

He laughed without a sound. This is how he laughed when he found something funny.

After laughing a good long while. He put back the card into the envelope.

He handed it to the young man.

The man in the chair laid back once more, quite relaxed.

"Call Jin. Tell him to prepare himself to attend a birthday party." Then he laughed silently once more.

The young man bowed and stepped back. When he was out of the room, he breathed out heavily.

\'That was really scary.\' He could die at any moment in that room. He really wants to quit his job.

He took out his phone and dialed the number of their First Young Master\'s personal assistant.

****

The Lu family was one of the legendary families. Their reputation has been long deep-rooted to the ground since ancient times. Like the Xiong family, they acc.u.mulated their wealth through hundred of years. Now in the 20th century, they are a humongous empire that made all the business figures bowed to them in reverence and would want to curry favor from them.

And this said empire was actually silently brewing a big event. However, no matter how discreet they are on preparing this event, a lot of big figures still heard of it. So in the most upper circle of the business industry, this information becomes the most in-demand.

A lot of people are buying information on who will attend the party, how could they got an invitation, and mostly is about the celebrant, the youngest master in the Lu family.

They could not be blamed. As they never heard of this second young master before.

Then news came out that the second young master studied privately in New York and just recently came to China.

So it would be the first time that the second young master would celebrate his birthday in China.

A lot of business figures really want to attend the party. They want to have connections to this second young master. And a first impression is a first step to establish connection and \'friendship\'.

Old Lu become aware of this, so he gives out more invitations to the big figures only.

However, he forbid the media to cover it, as he still wants to celebrate this event more privately. Since it was Lu Yin Ze\'s first birthday party after decades.

Old Lu wants Lu Yin Ze to be exposed to the world slowly. So Lu Yin Ze would not be overwhelmed and slowly adjust to the business world.

It was Friday, and tomorrow will be the start of the weekend.

Lu Yin Ze planned to talk to Xiong Zhi or to Song Xuantin in lunch or after class. But the two seemed to be so busy that during lunch they are talking to their phones (Xiong Zhi) or talking to someone else ( Gu Zhen) and when the bell rang the two will bid him goodbye and left.

He always loses his chance to talked to them. He was not even sure if they would come.

So would he just leave it to fate to decide?

Lu Yin Ze with low spirits left school and went home.

Meanwhile, Xiong Zhi was on her way to IHZHI.

She was not wasting time even in her car. She was still reviewing the reports from SHM. She kept resending and responding to emails after emails.

A ting sounded.

It was from Ms. Bivia Chang.

Xiong Zhi opened it and was happy that it was fruitful.

Xiong Zhi was now almost done with her preparation. Next week, would be another round of battle. This time, she would handle it personally.

She arrived at IHZHI.

Mr. Bang, Mr. Co, Xiao Mei, and Fang Dien were on the table waiting for her.

As she arrived, she did not waste time but start the meeting immediately.

On that busy and normal day, without the knowledge of the legendaries figures such as the Xiong, the Lu, the Guan or the Tang,

the creation of IHZHI\'s ArtWorld that would soon rock the world was born.
