To Love You Again

Chapter 149 - IHZHIs Money Tree

Chapter 149 - IHZHI's Money Tree

Monday came quickly.

Xiong Zhi saw Song Xuantin as soon as she entered the room.

It becomes a habit of Xiong Zhi to look at Song Xuantin as soon as she entered. Maybe because Song Xuantin would call her first. But not now.

"What happened to you?" Xiong Zhi asked as she seated.

If it was a normal day, Song Xuantin would have teased Xiong Zhi for opening her mouth first before her. But Song Xuantin was so tired.

"I want to sleep." She just muttered and slept on her desk.

Xiong Zi could see that Song Xuantin had dark circles. She then looked at Gu Zhen. The second person she always looked at in her room was this person. Probably because Song Xuantin would always talk about him that she unconsciously took this habit.

Gu Zhen was unusual as well. He was sleeping.

'What these two have been doing?'

They had been busy for quite some time. Because she was busy, she forgot to ask them.

Then Xiong Zhi's eyes traveled to the empty seat beside her.

'When he will come?'

But speaking of a devil, a shadow loomed over her. She looked up and saw it was Lu Yin Zhe.

He was not looking at her or to any one of them. He sat beside her. He took out his book and read it.

It was the first time that Lu Yin Ze did not greet them.

Xiong Zhi tried to greet him first.

"Glad you're back."

Lu Yin Ze nodded and burrowed his face in the notebook.

Xiong Zhi knew he was shy. So she just stayed and silent and wait for the teacher to come.

During the class, she heard Lu Yin Ze muttered: "I'm sorry to trouble you guys." Xiong Zhi pretends that she did not hear it.

It was only at lunch when Song Xuantin finally noticed Lu Yin Ze.

"You're here! I know you will come!" Song Xuantin's vigor was recovered after a short nap. She smacked Lu Yin Ze's back.

Lu Yin Ze finally got used to their presence as well and bowed to them.

"I'm sorry for worrying you guys. Thank you for visiting me last time." He sincerely said.

"Anytime." It was Xiong Zhi who answered.

Gu Zhen went to them and stare at Lu Yin Ze. They were not close but they could call each other as an acquaintance. Gu Zhen nodded to him. It was a gesture to welcome him back.

"Now, our LuXiong group is complete! It's time to celebrate! Did you bring us lunch, Yin Ze?" Song Xuantin asked as they were walking towards the cafeteria.

"Are you serious with the name? I brought food." Lu Yin Ze acted as usual.

Looking at the two bickerings at each other, Xiong Zhi was feeling strangely good. A heaviness in her heart was slowly uplifted. She thought it was nice to have Lu Yin Ze back. She was alone most of the time in her past life. It was only with Linfeng that she discovered feelings and felt alive.

Now having additional people such as 'friends' was also nice. Even though most of the time they gave her a headache. But if one of her friends was missing, it strangely gave her discomfort and a heavy feeling. Now they are complete, she could have peace.

As she looked at the two she began to wonder when she would give the box.

The four people began to have a peaceful and blissful lunch sponsored by the Lu family chef.

"I'm already finished." Gu Zhen suddenly spoke.

The three people in the table all looked at him. Specifically on his plate.

There was still food on his plate.

Seeing their gazes, Gu Zhen knew that they misunderstand him so he then looked at Xiong Zhi.

"I'm talking about the project you wanted to sponsor."

"Oh." Xiong Zhi's eyes sparkled. Was it the game that rocks the world or the security system that every company wanted to buy? Either way, both were a money tree.

"So have you decided?" Xiong Zhi asked. She told him before that she would sponsor his project to make it known to the whole world by taking it under IHZHI.

Gu Zhen glanced at Song Xuantin.

"I'll add some condition. Xuantin helped me with my project. She would have her share."

Xiong Zhen nodded. No wonder, the project was finished earlier than the previous lifetime. It might be because she provides a haven and tools for Gu Zhen, and Song Xuantin helped was also included.

"Let's go to my office after class."

Gu Zhen nodded. Song Xuantin wanted to ask more questions about the things they were talking about. But because of the delicious food she was eating, her mouth won't stop chewing. She couldn't find a chance to ask them. She then decided to ask later after class.

Lu Yin Ze looked at Xiong Zhi. He seemed determined. So after lunch, on the way back to their room he approached Xiong Zhi.

"Can I go with you later?" Lu Yin Ze suddenly asked Xiong Zhi. Xiong Zhi looked at him. Her eyes were asking why and for what reason.

"You will discuss the business matters to Gu Zhen, right? You asked me about the land before. Do you perhaps have a company on your own?"

Xiong Zhi just kept looking at him. Wondering if she would tell the truth or not. She then arrived at the conclusion that Lu Yin Ze was a friend. An ally. There would be a time that she would have to discuss business matters and make connections to the Lu family. So for this reason, she nodded.

"Yes. But may I know the reason why you wanted to see my company?"

"It's not about the company. I wanted to see how you handle things. I'm curious. I also want to build my own company or maybe handle the Lu Empire in the future. I just wanted to see..."?'What a minor child could do'. He wanted to add the last words but halted because he thought it might sound offending. He really wanted to see, how they, a teenager, could handle things such as a business that only a.d.u.l.ts could handle. He doesn't have any idea.

The Lu empire was big. It was managed by a lot of people. It would be hard for him to just observe the Lu Empire. So he wanted to start with a small company. And Xiong Zhi's company would be a good one to observe.

Xiong Zhi understands him.

"Alright." She did not ask further questions and agreed.

****

Fang Dien received a message that Xiong Zhi would visit IHZHI with three guests. She told him that he needs his assistance and later tour the three people. She even said that these guests were important and the future money tree. So he needed to prepare well.

Fang Dien then have an emergency meeting with all the heads in each department.

"This is our first time to receive guests. Remember, they are VIPs. Don't make IHZHI lose face."

The meeting ended and all the staff was busy. Either cleaning or preparing for them to showcase their work when the guest visits their station.

It was afternoon when Xiong Zhi and the three people in tow arrived in IHZHI. Song Xuantin has been here before. But she only stays on one floor. Since they had their own VIP elevator and straight to go to the VIP's offices, mainly the office of Gu Zhen, Xiong Zhi, Fang Dien and Xiao Mei, she did not have a chance to tour and meet people aside from Xiong Zhi and the janitor. It would be her first time to go through the lobby.

She had heard before from Gu Zhen that this building was owned by Xiong Zhi. And that Xiong Zhi has her own business. It was only normal for the upper society to have their business at a young age. They would have more company under their name once they reach a.d.u.l.thood. So it was not really surprising that Xiong Zhi, a descendant of the Xiong family, has her own business. However, Song Xuantin was still curious.

"Welcome to IHZHI, young miss Zhi and dear guests."

As they entered the lobby, the pretty employees were all lined up in two lines and were bowing to them. Fang Dien was the center bowing as well. But when he looked up, he was stunned.

'What's this? A bunch of kids?' However, thinking that his boss was a part of 'this bunch of kids' he did not take them lightly. They might be all genius who also owned a successful company like IHZHI. Or maybe they have great background comparable to his boss.

"I am Fang Dien. The CEO-in charge of IHZHI. It's my pleasure to escort you, young misses, and young masters."

The three people and Xiong Zhi were a bit stunned by this grand welcome. Xiong Zhi did not expect this too. She was just expecting that they would be organized and silent once they visited IHZHI. But to be this showy, was it okay?

Fang Dien secretly winked at her. A gesture that he got this and he prepared well.

Having no choice, she just accepted it.

"Thank you for your hard work. This is my classmate and my future business partners. "

The three people introduced themselves. When it was Lu Yin Ze's turn Fang Dien noticed the Lu surname. Since Fang Dien was trying to merge in the upper society, he learned of the people in the high society. Now that he was aware of Xiong Zhi's background, he knew of Lu Yin Ze as well. He got the information when Lu Yin Ze debuted in the society on his birthday. It was a talk between the highest society.

So Lu Yin Ze's name was known now.

Even though there's no picture of Lu Yin Ze, from the rumor it was said that his looks could rival the angels with his silver hair and silver-blue eyes. And the rumors seemed to be true.

Fang Dien looked at him as he was the biggest money tree along with these three guests. But he did not let go of his guard. The young student with eyeglasses was also the one he looked out for. He noticed him a while ago when IHZHI was just starting. Fang Dien knew Xiong Zhi gave him importance. He was really curious and interested in what these people would contribute to IHZHI.

"My dear guests, do you want a cup of tea first?" Fang Dien asked with a polite smile on his face.
