Chapter 607 - R--- A Clue

Linfeng pinched lightly Xiong Zhi\'s smooth cheeks. "You have made such a big mistake. I have to clean up after you. How are you going to compensate me, hmm?"

The tensed atmosphere was broken.

The man\'s light tone and joking remarks made Xiong Zhi\'s heavy heart ease a bit.

She turned to him and pointed her dainty finger at the door leading to the office bedroom. "We can settle it there."

Linfeng\'s ears turned red and he coughed. He poked her cheeks again.

"You naughty temptress!" he helplessly exclaimed. "We have a lot to do and investigate about on this latest issue. It seems like nothing can faze you anymore, huh?"

Saying that, Linfeng\'s tensed heart finally relaxed.

Lu Jin\'s sudden appearance made them feel as if they were standing in a narrow, enclosed room. Knowing his girlfriend\'s personality, she must be blaming herself at being reckless and giving the enemy an upper hand through her mistake. Linfeng worried that Xiong Zhi would be depressed and mulling over this. Fortunately, the blow was not too hard on her.

After teasing his girlfriend, the two finally settled down to talk.

"I am shocked that Liu Fung turned out to be Lu Jin\'s man. The Liu family stood neutral over the years and did not show obvious favor to any of the legendary families. They didn\'t have much influence but their long family history made them at least a second class family in the high society. Their company is doing decently but it never rose up on the ranks for the past five years now. They are pretty invisible, to be honest. Why would they suddenly side with Lu Jin? Do you think they are supporting Lu Jin for the Lu\'s successor position?" Xiong Zhi slowly expressed her thoughts.

"Perhaps. However, I have never heard of rumors about the Liu family getting close to Lu Jin, nor are there any business cooperations or friendsh.i.p.s between two parties in the high society. It must be that Liu Fung\'s connection to Lu Jin... is not revealed in public."

Xiong Zhi paused after hearing Linfeng\'s meaningful words.

"Not revealed in public... You mean to say that Liu Fung and Lu Jin\'s connection may be formed underground?"

"Likely. I believe you also know clearly that the Liu family business is only maintaining their position in the ranks but it never rose up further in the recent years. However, Liu Fung\'s investment company invested in ArtWorld four years ago. They dared to take on such a highly precarious investment risk for only two verbal favors. Where did they get such a large sum of money? Where did the confidence to invest come from, when their own family company is struggling? Besides, with the way on how Lu Jin spoke earlier, it appeared clearly that he has the final say on how the money will flow from Liu Fung\'s investment company. Liu Fung\'s behavior also matches this conjecture."

Xiong Zhi\'s eyes flickered. "Are you saying that Liu Fung\'s investment company is more likely owned by Lu Jin?"

"Perhaps. It is probably one of the hidden stashes of Lu Jin. And the money probably came from underground. But this all are just mere conjectures."

Xiong Zhi nodded. "But this makes a lot of sense. However, if Liu Fung and Lu Jin\'s connection is supposed to be a secret, why did Lu Jin reveal it to us?"

Linfeng shrugged. "Because we will know of it sooner or later. He needs your signature. Even if it is only Liu Fung who comes here and asks for the favor, we will still come to know that it is Lu Jin\'s faction."

"I know that. However..." Xiong Zhi stopped midway. She could not explain it with words.

Lu Jin deliberately helped her in ArtWorld in exchange of two favors. Why did he choose to gain two favors?

It was an intelligent move to ask for priceless favors. But at that time, Xiong Zhi was just a little girl who is not favored yet. What impressing favor could one expect from a little girl like her who would probably be married off like a pawn in the future?

The more Xiong Zhi thought about it, the more she could not understand this Lu Jin.

Seeing that his girlfriend still wore a frown on her face, Linfeng smoothed her forehead while sighing.

"I will investigate this matter. Lu Jin revealed one from his secret stash to us. For sure, there are still many out there. Since we are going to fight them in the future, we should not let them have any more leeway as much as possible, right?"

Xiong Zhi nodded. "That\'s right. Also, I need to talk about this with my grandfather. There will be a chaotic situation in IAmFashionista in the near future."

Linfeng nodded.

The couple had no choice but to separate from each other again. Linfeng went to meet his men and arranged some in-depth investigation while Xiong Zhi went to the Xiong Mansion.

The loud music on the first two floors of LG Club was deafening.

Lu Jin stepped out from the private elevator. Behind him was Liu Fung who did not dare to breathe loudly in the presence of this indifferent and ruthless man.

By the front door of Lu Jin\'s private lounge, Butler Hao was waiting for him.

The middle-aged butler bowed.

"Young Master Guan is waiting for you."

Lu Jin nodded. After the talk with Xiong Zhi, he directly called Guan Gao Huan.

Liu Fung was about to step in when Butler Hao blocked him. "Please wait downstairs, Mr. Liu. Young Master Guan Gao Huan and Young Master Lu Jin have confidential matters to discuss."

Liu Fung had no choice but to go to the lower floor and wait for his boss for his next command. He did not dare to ask if he had done a good job or not. The desired outcome was not met. So he did not dare to brandish his face in front of the boss.

The usually dim lounge was bright. Lu Jin could hear the sharp sound of flipping pages in the spacious room.
