Chapter 350: The Old Fox Who Doesn't Eat Oil and Salt
"Why don't you answer, do you have an opinion on my proposal?" Charles didn't seem to notice Lu Ling's mood at the moment, and still asked.
He stepped over the table and chairs in front of him, trying to walk up to Lu Ling to see how she looked at the moment.
Charles believed that with his ability to reason, as long as he could see Lu Ling's eyes, he would be able to guess what she was thinking at the moment.
Lu Ling naturally wouldn't go as he wished, so she immediately lowered her head and made a contemplative gesture.
"Jingle Bell ......"
The rapid ringtone of the mobile phone suddenly rang at this time, interrupting the thinking of the two people on the field.
Charles picked up the phone a little impatiently, and roared angrily without asking: "Tell me if you have something!" β
Obviously, the person on the other end of the line was very flattering, but Charles's face became more and more ugly.
"Lu Ling...... You are a good boy, and now our Will family needs your help, so your new weapon is very important to us, I have absolutely no other ideas, I hope you can understand me......" Perhaps the situation was pressing, Charles finally lowered his arrogant head and lowered his tone to narrate the matter with Lu Ling.
"Naturally, I'm happy to take out my weapon to the Will family, but it's still in the testing stage, and there will be many unknown dangers if I take it out rashly, and it won't be good if I accidentally injure someone from the Will family at that time." Lu Ling raised her head at this time and spoke to Charles very sincerely.
Hearing Lu Ling say this, Charles understood that she was just prevaricating.
But no matter what, Lu Ling's newly developed weapon was a must-win for him, and then he spoke: "Everyone knows that you are inferior to your father in weapon research, and because your previous mercenary career has also given you a deeper understanding of weapons than ordinary people, there should be no big problem with the weapons you developed!" β
Charles's words made Lu Ling's heart jump instantly.
Damn it! This old fox can't get in at all!
In that case, let him be perfected! Thinking like this, Lu Ling smiled: "What Uncle said is that everyone will be a family in the future anyway, and mine is naturally from the Will family, and everything in the Will family will not be mine and Eli in the future?" In this way, I would like to thank my uncle for thinking so well! β
Lu Ling's words made Charles squint his eyes full of calculation, and said in his heart that this little girl was not simple, and he actually hit the idea on the entire Will family.
But now, in order to achieve his goal, he immediately spoke very boldly: "You are right, our two families are mutually beneficial and win-win, in this way, both of them will develop in the long run." β
The so-called mutual benefit, Lu Ling only knows that it is just a cover, and for now, Lu Ran's business has never been touched by the Will family.
"Then it's decided!" The exchange between the two ended with the last words of Lu Ling.
Because Chinese people generally pay attention to choosing good days and auspicious days in major events such as engagement and marriage, in order to comply with Lu Ran's wishes, Charles specially sent someone to Chinatown to invite a feng shui gentleman.
I saw that Mr. Feng Shui was wearing a Taoist robe, with a bun on his head and a handful of dust on his hand, which looked quite fairy.
"The two characters are very compatible, Poor Dao looked at it, three days later it will be a good day and an auspicious day, and the engagement is very suitable."
"Haha, since the Dao Leader has said so, then it will be set in three days!" As soon as the long words fell, Charles spoke.
Lu Ling didn't believe what the chief said, she always felt that this chief was a little strange, but since Charles had already decided all this, Lu Ling didn't say much, just smiled and watched them talk lively.
It wasn't until after the Taoist left that Lu Ling followed him.
"Miss Lu Ling, where are you going?" Lu Ling was about to walk out of the door of the Will family when she ran into Eli's assistant and happened to be walking towards the Will family.
The assistant looked in a hurry, obviously just asking casually, so Lu Ling replied casually: "I just want to go out for a walk!" β
Sure enough, the assistant only smiled slightly when he heard this, and then continued to walk towards the Will family.
This was exactly what Lu Ling wanted, and she walked briskly in the direction that the Taoist priest had left, and stopped him just as he was about to get into the taxi.
"Miss Deer? I didn't expect to meet you when I went out of the poor road, it seems that you and I are quite fateful! The feng shui gentleman touched his beard, shook his head and opened his mouth, and his reaction was quite calm.
Looking like this, he should be a veteran of swaggering and deception, but he can't escape Lu Ling's eyes no matter how good he is.
Lu Ling directly ripped off his beard, and said with a smile: "Yo...... The Taoist is quite tender......"
Seeing that the matter was revealed, Mr. Feng Shui hurriedly took a step and prepared to run away, but he didn't want to be stuffed into the car by Lu Ling again, and at the same time, Lu Ling closed the car door tightly.
"Little girl, look at your young age, why are you so strong?" Mr. Feng Shui looked at Lu Ling with a smiling face.
"Tell me, how much did Charles pay you to make you talk so nonsense?" Lu Ling put her hand on Mr. Feng Shui's neck, and secretly exerted force on her hand.
The feeling of suffocation coming from his neck made Mr. Feng Shui a little frightened, and he immediately replied with a smile: "Young people don't be really angry, isn't it good for me to say good things about you and your fiancΓ©?" β
"Hehe, what are you doing?" Lu Ling did not answer Mr. Feng Shui's question, but asked aloud.
"I'm just a Chinese guy who eats and drinks in Chinatown, and I happened to be seen by Mr. Charles, which brought me to the Will family." The feng shui gentleman knew that he couldn't fool himself, so he had to answer honestly.
"If I'm not mistaken, you should be proficient in disguise, right?" Lu Ling raised her eyebrows and looked at the man in front of her.
"My appearance was given to me by someone else, where can I have that ability?" The man smiled and quickly denied it.
"I said that I naturally have my reasons, I need you to use your disguise technique to help me do something, and you must also participate in it, but after the thing is done, I will give you a large commission, do you dare to do it?" Lu Ling was reluctant to go around in circles with this man at all, and directly stated her purpose.
Originally, the man thought that Lu Ling was looking for trouble with him, but he didn't expect that there was business delivered to his door now, which surprised him, but for the sake of insurance, he still asked tentatively: "How much commission do you want to give?" And how can I trust you? β
"What do you think of this number?" Lu Ling stretched out ten fingers, and the corners of her eyebrows had a deep meaning.
"One hundred thousand? What's the matter? The man still behaved not salty, and immediately asked aloud.
"The price will be increased tenfold, but the thing is that you want to disguise yourself as a person from country A to deliver a letter, but this is not the main thing, the most important thing is that you still have to do this......" Lu Ling smiled sinisterly and whispered in the man's ear.
"It's a bit risky, shouldn't you give me some deposit first?" The man squinted and smiled at Lu Ling.
No matter what she thought, Lu Ling didn't feel that there was any risk in this matter, and secretly scolded the man for being shrewd, and then spoke directly: "You give me your card number, I will give you a deposit of 100,000 yuan, and you will do something for me immediately when the deposit arrives!" β
"Deal!" Seeing this, the man immediately agreed.
And the taxi driver's heart was even more turbulent when he heard the conversation between the two, and even the hand holding the steering wheel trembled slightly.
Lu Ling noticed his abnormality, but she didn't say anything, in her opinion, a taxi driver can't hurt her.
Since the matter was settled like this, Lu Ling naturally did not stay in the car for a long time, and after letting the taxi driver park the car on the side of the road, Lu Ling quickly jumped out of the car and returned directly to the Will family.
Because Charles said that he wanted to prepare a grand engagement banquet for Lu Ling and Eli, he had only done some foreshadowing before, and he would enter an intense preparation process in the next few days.
At noon, Lu Ling walked aimlessly in the Will family's garden, looking at the scene in the garden, with a faint smile on her face.
Eli suddenly stopped her from behind Lu Ling, and asked softly, "How does it feel to see that we are about to get engaged?" β
Lu Ling stood still, raised her eyebrows to look at Eli, and asked, "I'm curious about how you feel?" Don't you think it's ironic for us to be together because of the interests of the two families? β
"I know you have Byron in your heart, if we really get married, I won't interfere with your relationship with him, and aren't we not yet at the last step? Who knows if anything will happen along the way. β
As for the matter of marriage, Eli is relatively light-hearted, and when he speaks, a large part of the reason may be that he does not have a sweetheart, so everything does not matter to him.
"I don't see it's quite open!" Lu Ling was successfully amused by Eli's attitude.
After saying this, Lu Ling suddenly remembered something, and asked with some doubts: "Did Taylor make any moves during this time?" β
"I'm busy dealing with major families during this time, and I don't have time to take care of my eldest brother, so I'll take the time to take a look." After Lu Ling's reminder, Eli remembered and hurriedly responded.
"Actually, I want to tell you that you can't let your guard down against him at any time, after all, he is the one who once wanted to hurt you." Lu Ling spoke in a very light tone, but she spoke clearly, wanting to imprint these words into Eli's heart.
"Don't worry, I'll pay attention, I came to talk to you this time and want to tell you, because our engagement day is coming soon, so my father specially asked you not to interfere in the affairs of the Will family in these few days, saying that it is for you to have a good rest, so that you can attend our engagement ceremony in the best condition."
Eli didn't want to talk too much about Taylor's matter, so he changed the subject.
"It's just a cutscene, why bother so much? But when I finally had the opportunity to be lazy, I naturally wouldn't let it go. As she spoke, Lu Ling winked at Eli.
