Chapter 14 Shocking News

The branches and leaves of the white sandalwood tree swayed slightly in the dark night. Since practicing the meridian technique, Lu Chong's vision has been particularly good, which has also made his perception more sensitive.

Lu Chong's bright eyes searched the graceful shadow hidden under the tree. Lu Chong did not have the intention to taste the fragrance in the breeze at this time, and quickly approached the shadow.

Miss Zhong's expression was still calm. She looked at Lu Chong, and said with a little resentment: "Are you busy today?"

Lu Chong scratched his head embarrassedly, without explanation, and handed the seven-layered calendula chrysanthemum forward.

The flower gives people a flowing beauty even in the darkness. Miss Zhong sincerely praised: "I didn't expect you to really surprise me. I reached the level of master so quickly. It is also a rare talent in the entire Lu family."

Seeing that Miss Zhong did not speak as actively as usual, she seemed a little absent-minded, so she asked, "Do you think there is something important to me?"

Miss Zhong then looked at Lu Chong seriously. After a while, she said, "Lu Chong, Lu Shisan, can you make me trust you all the time?"

Lu Chong was stunned by her jumping thoughts. Nuonuo didn't know how to speak. Miss Zhong sighed: "Actually, you are really a strange person. You have been incredibly calm since the first time you met. OK! I don't think you know my name yet! My name is Zhong Baihua. My family runs a wooden material business. Although my father is a clan, he lacks ability. He can only do some family business in Qinghe City with the family's hiding. I am the eldest daughter of the family, and my father has always hoped to use me for marriage."

Although Lu Chong was willing to talk to Miss Zhong, he was very afraid that she would tell him these things and said, "Why should I tell me these?"

"I feel very depressed. My father understands my stubbornness, but he can't stand my aunt's repeated entanglements. He finally agreed to choose one of the Lu family's children."

Lu Chong felt a little bitter in his mouth. He was very clear about his current identity. Although he had heard something long ago, he was unwilling to continue and said again: "Actually, I have a mother who likes the skills of wood carving."

Zhong Baihua said slightly surprised: "So that's the case. No wonder you are the only person who has no prejudice against me. With a son like you, your mother is really happy."

"It's a pity that she passed away when I was very young." Lu Chong seemed a little sad.

"I'm sorry, I made you sad." Zhong Baihua said apologetically.

"Nothing? I just know that my mother is very talented and strong."

"Thank you, I understand. I'm fourteen this year and will reach Ji Yan's age next year. I won't compromise easily. I want to manage my family's business. When I do another thing well, I won't have to worry anymore." Zhong Baihua seemed to have a change in her mood.

Lu Chong thought of something? Hesitated for a moment, but finally didn't say anything. He took out the bird he had worked hard to make during the day. Zhong Baihua's eyes lit up and immediately grabbed it in his hand, saying, "The things you carved are very distinctive, and they always feel like they can fly."

“It does fly.”

"Really? How do you fly?" Zhong Baihua flipped it over and quickly found the adjustment mechanism piece at the bottom. When he pressed it with his hand, he could only hear the sound of the "tower tower", and the birds hovered over their heads.

"Ah! It's so amazing!" Zhong Baihua shouted.

"You can fly multiple times." Lu Chong waited for the bird to stop, pressed it on the bottom of the bird, and the bird flew again.

"It's so magical!" Zhong Baihua couldn't control her excitement and kept playing with her.

The bird finally hit the white sandalwood tree with a "bang". Lu Chong picked it up and saw that the object had been deformed. There were several ripples on the wooden bird's body. Zhong Baihua said, "I haven't had enough fun yet? However, you are such an amazing genius. I have never seen an object that can fly automatically."

Lu Chong put away the bird and sighed: "I originally planned to give it to you, but I didn't expect it to break. If it was made of ebony, it would not be easy to break."

Zhong Baihua's eyes turned and said, "I'll give you ebony, you can do more for me! But you can't tell anyone that this is the secret between us."

When Lu Chong saw Zhong Baihua's handsome appearance, he couldn't help but say, "Okay."

"And you can only do it for me alone." Zhong Baihua said with a sly look.

"Why?" Lu Chong didn't understand.

Zhong Baihua smiled and said, "Made it with the ebony I provide. Through your magical skills, it will become a precious product. It cannot be managed by the Lu family. It belongs to me, Miss Zhong. Haha, you make three for me every month, no, five! I will give you fifty black iron coins each, right?"

Lu Chongran and Zhong Baihua were born in a wood material business family since childhood, and indeed had the talent for business.

At this moment, Zhong Baihua whispered: "Someone is coming, you go first."

Lu Chong was a little confused, and then heard the sound of footsteps in the distance, so he left in the other direction, but he did not go far and climbed up a big tree and lurked.

The man walked over quickly, looked at the direction where Lu Chong disappeared, and shouted at Zhong Baihua: "Okay, Zhong Baihua, who said that someone was uncomfortable? It turned out that he wanted to avoid me and come here to meet his lover. Damn it."

Zhong Baihua said coldly: "Lu Yong, what are you? Do you think my aunt can do whatever you want if you help you."

Lu Yong said hatefully: "Zhong Baihua, if our Lu family hadn't taken care of your wood material business, your family would have been finished long ago. If you, a woman, showed up in public to discuss business, would you be ashamed?"

Zhong Baihua was furious and said, "Sir Lu, you have the nerve to say it out. Your Lu family bought our wood materials openly and secretly picked and suppressed the price. I know your tricks and want to redeem my family. No way, your Lu family is making black money."

Lu Yong gritted his teeth and shouted: "Okay, Zhong Baihua, don't regret it, you can wait and see."

Zhong Baihua was not showing any weakness: "I'll wait, let's see what big waves you, a stinky man who is incompetent, can make."

Lu Yong shook his sleeves and left hurriedly. Although Zhong Baihua was tough, she knew the current situation at home. Her eyes couldn't help but become wet. Then she shook her head and left.

Lu Chong could hear it clearly on the tree and sighed in his heart. No wonder Zhong Baihua looked down on the Lu family's clan children, and there were too many dirty transactions intertwined here.

Lu Chong thought of the cooperation with Lu Zhi, which also had many transactional components, but in his current low status, it was an unbalanced and helpless mutual benefit.

When you come to this world, for a person with a very low starting point, you can only constantly accumulate your own strength. By relying on yourself alone, you are afraid that even the most basic requirements will be easily deprived of. You must use various support. Only when you have strong power can you easily face everything and get everything you want.
