Chapter 177: I Have a Girlfriend Now
If Wu Mengting finds out about this, it would be a miracle if she doesn’t break up with him immediately.
Thinking of this, Chen Tianlong felt a headache and just collapsed to the ground, holding his head with a feeling of wanting to cry but having no tears.
Seeing Chen Tianlong suddenly sitting on the ground looking very distressed, Liu Xiaoqing’s heart softened instantly: "Chen Tianlong, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Xiaoqing, whose side are you on? Get up, don’t let him fool you."
Li Bingshuang clearly thought Chen Tianlong was pretending. Marrying two beauties like them was a dream for many, yet this guy just didn’t appreciate it.
"Xiaoqing, Bingshuang, I have a girlfriend. She’s a very good girl, and I don’t want to hurt her." Chen Tianlong suddenly raised his head, looking serious.
"You mean... you don’t want us?" Li Bingshuang said with a blank expression, "Xiaoqing slept with you, and I was also... seen by you last night, what do you suggest we do now?"
"..." Chen Tianlong was at a loss for words. Those things didn’t matter much, but what he said at the company entrance today might already be big news in Capital City.
To be precise, these two girls were already harmed by him, and it would be truly wrong not to be with them.
"Can you give me a year?" Chen Tianlong thought for a moment and said.
His task was to help Lin Wushuang recover, and within this year, no matter what happened, he had to complete the task.
"Fine, but remember, if you don’t come to us after a year, even if I have to flatten South Sea City, I’ll drag you out."
Saying this, Li Bingshuang turned her face away, obviously upset.
"Chen Tianlong... remember... to miss us."
Liu Xiaoqing, clearly more shy, said this and then left the office.
Watching Li Bingshuang’s back, Chen Tianlong felt a bit guilty. Thinking for a moment, he walked over lightly and hugged Li Bingshuang from behind without saying a word.
Li Bingshuang held back her tears, didn’t turn around, and just quietly let Chen Tianlong hold her.
They stood like this for ten minutes, and then Chen Tianlong gradually loosened his hold and walked out without looking back. This time, he gained a lot but also owed a lot.
Money can be repaid, but emotional debts cannot.
That afternoon, he boarded a 5 PM flight, and Li Bingshuang didn’t go to see him off, instead letting Liu Xiaoqing go.
At the time of parting, Chen Tianlong gave a gentle kiss on Liu Xiaoqing’s cheek. She was innocent, with no beautiful memories left with her, only a gentle kiss at their farewell.
The plane arrived at South Sea City airport by 8 PM, and Lin Batian personally came to pick them up, leaving Chen Tianlong a bit flattered.
"Congratulations to both of you, for securing a huge project for the company. I plan to give the project shares to Brother Chen Tianlong, since it’s his effort that made this happen."
Once the car drove smoothly, since Mr. Hu was driving, Lin Batian and Chen Tianlong sat in the back and Lin Batian spoke.
"Mr. Lin, this..."
"Chen Tianlong, you don’t have to worry. Your name will hold the honor, but the management will be arranged with Mr. Hu. If you trust him, there’s no problem." Lin Batian valued this big project highly, but he wasn’t stingy about giving it to Chen Tianlong.
Because he saw a bright future for Chen Tianlong, and with him joining the company, peace could be maintained indefinitely.
"Of course, I absolutely trust Mr. Hu." Chen Tianlong hurriedly said.
"Haha, that’s good then. Your life will remain the same, but secretly, you’ll be a major shareholder of the Lin Group. When the crucial shareholder meeting occurs, you can appear, and other times, Mr. Hu will handle everything on your behalf."
Lin Batian explained, afraid that Chen Tianlong might refuse.
"Alright."
Chen Tianlong initially didn’t want to get involved, and a year later, he would leave. By then, any shareholder meetings would be irrelevant: "However, Mr. Lin, let me make it clear first, I might leave South Sea City in a year, and by then Mr. Hu must take over."
"Hiss... Is that so?"
Lin Batian hadn’t expected it, but then thought, everything is uncertain and a year is a long time, plans can’t keep up with changes, "Alright, I promise you."
"Then there’s no problem." Chen Tianlong nodded in satisfaction.
The Mo Family courtyard.
"What’s going on? How did the Lin Family secure a big project, does this mean the Lin Group will soar in the future?" Mo Shangshan was somewhat angry. Such a sure-win project was snatched away, making his heart ache.
If it continues like this, three years later, the Mo Family’s position among the four major families in South Sea will be at risk.
"Master, I also didn’t expect this. This time we made full preparations, and with the strength of our Peak Group, this project should have been easily won, but unexpectedly the Lin Family became a roadblock and snatched it away." Zhou Run said.
"What do you mean? Who could the Lin Family possibly have with such ability, connected even to Capital City?" Mo Shangshan was taken aback and asked curiously.
"Yes, his name is Chen Tianlong, he’s actually the new Sect Leader of the Hidden Weapons Sect, and the head of Baiyun Group is his wife... truly frustrating."
"What? It turns out that kid Chen Tianlong has become the Sect Leader of the Hidden Weapons Sect."
Hearing this, Mo Shangshan’s eyes widened. The sect had vanished five years ago and although he didn’t know the reason, its re-emergence surprised him.
After a slight adjustment, Mo Shangshan sipped his tea, then put down the cup, his face turning a bit sinister: "Zhou Run, what do you think of that kid’s strength?"
"Oh? Do you mean, master, that you want to get rid of this kid?" Zhou Run wasn’t stupid and immediately understood.
Mo Shangshan smiled coldly and nodded.
"Replying to the master, I would feel some pressure dealing with him alone, but... this time I went to Capital City and met a master whose strength equals mine. If I cooperate with him, there should be no problem." Zhou Run changed his tone and said.
"Oh? And who might this be?"
"The eldest son of the Hao Family, Hao Shuai."
"Hiss... he’s a character, but the Hao Family has always been our Mo Family’s competitor. Would he help us?"
Mo Shangshan asked with some doubt.
"Haha, perhaps not before, but now we face a common enemy. Frankly, during my trip to Capital City, Hao Shuai also fell into Chen Tianlong’s trap and suffered losses. With his character, he will surely find ways to get rid of him fast."
Zhou Run spoke facts, analyzing.
"Haha, that’s indeed great, pass my order to temporarily cooperate with the Hao Family to eliminate that boy Chen Tianlong." Mo Shangshan was delighted.
"Yes, master, I will do it right away."
With the order, Zhou Run headed straight to the Hao Family. Their Hao Family was indeed the number one family in South Sea City, visiting them was their honor.
As expected, Old Master Hao Dahai was pleasantly surprised to hear of Zhou Run from the Mo Family visiting, and went out quickly to welcome and invited him to the living room immediately.
However, after a brief conversation, Zhou Run quickly left. This was not due to a failed cooperation but because he was heading to the Flying Eagle Gang to find Hao Shuai.
