Chapter 200: Chapter 200 Qiao Yun was Stunned
“I…”
“Ding-dong! Ding-dong!!!”
Just as Qiao Yun had opened her mouth, the doorbell rang urgently.
Lu Zhanxing asked Qiao Yun to wait and then got up to open the door.
The visitor was Xie Ying, and the smile on his face didn’t stop once he entered.
“Zhanxing, you’re finally turning things around!”
Lu Zhanxing: ???
“Do you know how many calls I’ve received since yesterday from people wanting to collaborate with us? Even the V family, who previously reneged on their deal, called to apologize.”
Ever since Xun Minzhi had spread those words in the circle, the collaborations seeking out Lu Zhanxing had decreased, with some even intentionally undermining them.
That was until yesterday when Lu Zhanxing, wearing an unpredictable cosmic watch, attended the charity gala and was personally greeted by the young master Qi, getting a seat among a group of national academicians.
People in the circle were guessing if Lu Zhanxing had some powerful background?
The speculations were wild.
Lu Zhanxing was the son of some foreign tycoon, and if he couldn’t make it in the entertainment industry, he could go back home any minute to inherit a fortune worth billions.
Some guessed that Lu Zhanxing was a second-generation official or military child, which was why he could sit at the same table as the national academicians.
Otherwise, why would he receive such good treatment?
Lu Zhanxing: “…”
It was as if absurdity had opened the door to more absurdity, reaching home.
Influenced by those people, Xie Ying started to doubt himself and secretly asked Lu Zhanxing.
“If there’s anything, don’t hide it from me.”
Lu Zhanxing couldn’t help but laugh, “Where would I get such an impressive background from? If you don’t believe me, ask my sister.”
Qiao Yun, holding a cup of milk, nodded seriously.
Xie Ying sighed in disappointment, “Well, it would have been great if it were true.”
He knew the charity gala would impact Lu Zhanxing.
He just didn’t expect the impact to be this significant.
If you say Lu Zhanxing was lucky, he wouldn’t have crossed paths with the nutcase Xun Minzhi.
Unlucky as he was, he was now bizarrely clinging to Aladdin’s coattails.
“Didn’t you forget there’s a schedule today? Hurry up, we’re going to be late.”
Xie Ying glanced at the time, realizing they were running late, worried that Lu Zhanxing being late might lead to claims of him acting like a big shot.
Lu Zhanxing felt a bit troubled, “Wait a moment, I have something to discuss with my sister.”
It was then that Qiao Yun spoke, “It’s okay, you go ahead.”
She had been impulsive earlier but had calmed down now.
She was always decisive in her actions, yet now she hesitated.
She didn’t want to see her second brother treating her distantly and formally, she still needed to think about how to approach this.
“Since your sister said so, let’s go ahead,” Xie Ying urged.
Lu Zhanxing did not insist, asking her, “Do you want me to take you downstairs?”
“No need.” Qiao Yun rebutted in a resigned tone, “I’m not a kid, I know the way.”
“To your brother, you are a kid.”
Qiao Yun’s rebuttal was ineffective, her cheeks puffed up slightly.
In Lu Zhanxing’s eyes, this was especially adorable.
Not long after Lu Zhanxing left, Qiao Yun also went downstairs.
Li Hanzhou had already arrived.
Dressed in a white shirt and black trousers, his physique was lean and impeccable, his demeanor lazy yet dignified.
After getting in the car.
Li Hanzhou, tilting his head, his peach blossom eyes slightly curved, smiled lightly as he sized up Qiao Yun.
Unable to resist, Qiao Yun asked, “What are you looking at?”
“Wondering if inside your small body lives the soul of an old granny. How else could you be so formidable?” Li Hanzhou teased.
This tiny kid, yet she’s a professor.
It’s hard to see how her brain could be so brilliant.
“Certainly not an old granny.”
Qiao Yun’s voice was tiny, slightly guilty.
Robots have no lifespan, she had lived two hundred years from creation to destruction.
Um…
So was she over a hundred years older than Li Hanzhou?
Qiao Yun was stunned.
