Chapter 148: Crazy and Stable 

The next day.

In the morning, Jiang Shihan brought some clothes for Hua Xueqing to choose from.

Hua Xueqing refused this one and that one, not daring to wear any of them.

Lu Chengwen was annoyed: "Damn it! I'm going to talk about a project worth hundreds of billions, and you're dawdling over a piece of clothing! Just this one! Jiang Shihan, put it on her, also the high heels, and stockings, if you don't wear them I'll beat you up!"

Hua Xueqing shouted: "Young Master never asked me to wear these clothes!"

Lu Chengwen grabbed her collar: "That's because it wasn't time yet when you become his concubine, he'll make you wear things a hundred times more shameful than this! You're the senior disciple given to me by my big brother, what did he say? Didn't he tell you to listen to me? Didn't he?"

Hua Xueqing dared not resist, so she had to put on a professional suit. Not only Lu Chengwen, but even Jiang Shihan was stunned.

This girl wasn't lacking in the goods!

Jiang Shihan was quite tall, but Hua Xueqing was even taller with high heels.

Besides, she had a very slender waist, and the waist-cinching effect of the suit was perfectly displayed. Lu Chengwen felt like he could wrap his two hands around her tiny waist.

[Little vixen. Such a thin waist, I can snap it with a little bit of force.]

Hua Xueqing blushed and glared at Lu Chengwen.

She was wearing a wrap-around skirt underneath, paired with light black stockings, straight and long legs, flesh-colored skin faintly visible, plus a pair of high heels, it was simply tempting.

A beautiful decorative handkerchief was tucked in her chest pocket, and her hairstyle was slightly adjusted, making it less conservative.

Jiang Shihan also put on makeup for her.

Lu Chengwen cursed in his heart.

[That bastard Long Aotian is so good at picking women, how come they're all beauties?]

But there was a problem. Hua Xueqing was shy and refused to go out.

Lu Chengwen felt incredulous:

"Big sister, what are you pretending for? Weren't you very calm when you were listening in on my bedroom last night? I told you to wear a professional outfit! A professional outfit, big sister, what are you so shy about?"

"Lu Chengwen..."

"Call me Lu Zong!"

"Lu Zong, please, I've never worn clothes like this, please give my clothes back to me. I'll protect you secretly, I've always been..."

"Shut up! You talk too much!"

Lu Chengwen thought for a moment: "Jiang Shihan! Come here, stick your butt out!"

Jiang Shihan lowered her head and obediently did as she was told. Lu Chengwen slapped her: "Are you still listening?"

Jiang Shihan turned back with a grievance: "Listening."

Lu Chengwen glared fiercely at Hua Xueqing: "See? Am I fierce or not?"

Hua Xueqing was about to cry: "Fierce."

"Am I bad?"

"Good and bad!"

"Then do you want to get spanked too?"

Hua Xueqing wanted to cry: "I don't want to!"

"Then obediently go out with me!"

Seeing Hua Xueqing wearing high heels, she couldn't even walk properly. Lu Chengwen chuckled in his heart.

[You talk too much, who else should I scare if not you?]

[In my company, anyone who doesn't wear a short skirt and stockings will be fired.]

Sitting in the spacious and comfortable business car, Lu Chengwen was hugging Jiang Shihan, being so intimate that it made Hua Xueqing blush and her heart race.

Don't think that Hua Xueqing was calm as water sitting on the windowsill yesterday, it's because her inner sadness and grief were enormous.

She was incomplete in terms of spiritual awareness, so her senses and perception of the outside world were different from normal people. She was immersed in that deep sadness of being abandoned, and she had no interest in the amorous play of Lu Chengwen and Jiang Shihan at all.

But today was different.

She didn't know it, but after last night's incident, the defenses in her heart had quietly retreated, and she had begun to be able to accept the fact that she was by Lu Chengwen's side.

In this situation, her sadness subsided, and a woman's shyness arose.

Plus, she had never worn such sexy clothes before, making her feel like meat on a chopping board, uncomfortable all over. Her mind was filled with thoughts of men's and women's business.

Now Lu Chengwen was groping Jiang Shihan, openly flirting, making Hua Xueqing feel very uncomfortable.

"You're a hooligan!"

"Bingo!" Lu Chengwen admitted frankly: "I am a hooligan, in Xuecheng, nine out of ten people know I'm a hooligan!"

"Beast!"

"Hey, hey, hey, you're my bodyguard! What did my big brother tell you? Didn't he tell you to be my bodyguard? To be my maid? Are there any maids who constantly scold their masters?"

Hua Xueqing was furious but she couldn't do anything about this guy.

She couldn't help it, he was right!

"Say 'master' and let me hear it."

Hua Xueqing pouted, blushing: "Mas...ter."

"Louder! Who can hear you with such a small voice?"

"Master! Is that okay?"

"Wow, you're so loud, do you want to deafen your master?"

Hua Xueqing was about to cry. She felt like she was being humiliated, and she wanted to rush over and beat up Lu Chengwen.

Lu Chengwen saw that she was about to reach her limit, so he didn't dare to push her too hard.

"I've lifted the skirts of almost all the female employees in our group, I've slapped the butts of all of them, I've touched the legs of all of them. Jiang Shihan, is that right?"

Jiang Shihan blushed and whined: "Lu Zong, you're annoying."

"You'll be..."

At that moment, the phone rang.

Lu Chengwen glanced at it and picked it up: "Chen Fatty, something wrong?"

"Chengwen! Save me!"

Lu Chengwen said: "You're fighting with people again?!"

"No! My older sister knows about my affair with Sanli! My older sister disagrees because her brother is a gangster. Sanli's career development hasn't been smooth after graduation, my older sister thinks their family has a bad reputation. She said that I'm the eldest son of the Chen family, and I can't marry a woman like that! Big brother, you have to help me!"

Lu Chengwen was extremely depressed: "Big brother, you're twenty-something years old, didn't you used to be able to flirt with girls without anyone, even the King of Hell, being able to control you? Why are you afraid of her? Why don't you just fight with her?"

"Stop messing around! Before it was...playing, now I've met true love! We're going to get married! Will you help or not? If you don't help, I'll have Sanli give birth to a child and send him directly to your family! Let your old Lu family raise my child!"

"I'm going to a meeting now, we'll talk later. That's all."

"Hey, you have to hurry, my sister is ruthless, Erlong might be in trouble!"

"I know!"

...

In the conference room.

Thirty or so people were fiercely debating.

When Lu Chengwen walked in, everyone looked over and greeted him.

Because Hua Xueqing's spiritual awareness was sealed, she was strangely more sensitive to certain human emotions, which are usually the most subtle and difficult to capture.

She was surprised to find that everyone had been arguing heatedly, their faces flushed.

But when they saw Lu Chengwen, everyone's expressions changed.

Their faces unconsciously showed a look of joy and respect, as if Lu Chengwen was a benevolent ruler, and they all needed Lu Chengwen to plead their cases for them.

This guy, is he that trustworthy?

Lu Chengwen twisted Jiang Shihan's butt, everyone pretended not to see it.

He strode to the boss's chair and sat down: "What are you all arguing about?"

The chief engineer pushed up his glasses: "Lu Zong, are you going to start construction on all fronts?"

"Is there any doubt about that? Sit down, everyone sit down asitsndand talk, don't be like Water Margin, we are civilized people, let's talk slowly."

Well, after a few words, the group of people started arguing again.

The interest group led by Li Meiqin insisted that Saint Group was already saving lives by taking on this project, and they had already done everything they could for the people of Xuecheng.

Therefore, the project should be carried out at a slow pace, minimizing expenses, especially explosive expenses.

This is the most stable way, and the risks in the later stage are controllable.

However, the ambitious group led by the chief engineer fully supported Lu Chengwen's crazy idea.

They knew that once hundreds of thousands of people rushed into the slums, the progress of the project would be rapid.

But correspondingly, the increase in costs is also terrifying!

According to preliminary calculations, hundreds of thousands of workers entered the slums, and construction started everywhere.

The daily investment would be billions, and that's still a conservative estimate!

Besides, the coordination, collision, and conflicts between various construction teams and project blocks... all need more precise, accurate, and timely coordination.

The demand for high-level technology, management, planning, accounting... talent for the entire slum area will also increase explosively.

And!

Starting construction on all fronts will require a huge number of building materials, construction machinery, engineering fleets, construction technology support...

For example, in the past, only one person was, he could take his time. We feed him, house him, pay him, provide him with theworkin necessary tools and materials... so he can work slowly.

Saint Group was making money while subsidizing him, and winning the project by a long-term war.

But now, suddenly, one hundred people are working. Saint Group needs to provide one hundred people with food, clothing, supplies, housing, money, materials, tools, technology, management...

It used to be a small river flowing, but now it's a vast ocean surging.

Saint Group's financial resources can't handle it.

It's like a group with several families, building a city in a very crazy way.

The chief engineer said excitedly: "Lu Zong, I know your pressure will be great, but you can rest assured, I will coordinate everything well and try my best to keep the costs down! And once this project is completed, we, Saint Group, will have accomplished a feat. This scale is extremely rare, even nationwide and worldwide! Saint Group will be recorded in history, the feat of building a high-tech, modern city in three months will become a benchmark and leader in the national construction and development industry!"

Li Meiqin slammed her hand on the table, she was really angry.

"What about the risks?! What about the money?! Chief Engineer! My dear Chief Engineer! Taking on this project is a gamble in itself! If we start construction on all fronts, our money will flow like water, no, like a dam breaking! Saint Group alone can't handle it! We might run out of money in a month and a half! Not only will the project have to be put on hold, but what will happen to the hundreds of thousands of people? What will happen to the collapsed Saint Group? What will happen to the people in the slums?!"

The two of them argued more and more fiercely, and the two camps also put forward their reasons.

The chief engineer finally lost his temper: "This is a feat! It's about the people's livelihood, benefiting millions of residents in Xuecheng! There will be pressure, but I will do my best to control it!"

Li Meiqin finally shouted angrily: "Eat the Emperor's salary, be loyal to the Emperor! I don't care about the people of Xuecheng, I want Saint Group to survive! To survive well! If this continues, Saint Group will collapse!"

At this moment, Jiang Shihan poked Lu Chengwen: "Lu Zong, Zhao."

Lu Chengwen snapped out of his thoughts, looking at Jiang Shihan: "Ah, ah, I know, I'll return your bra, it looks good on you without it."

"No!" Jiang Shihan winked.

Lu Chengwen turned his head and quickly stood up: "Mayor Zhao!?"

Everyone in the room was stunned, they all looked at Mayor Zhao and Secretary Wu standing at the door.

It seemed like they had been listening for a long time.
