Logging 10,000 Years into the Future

Chapter 93

Chapter 93

The taxi driver looked at Lu Sheng through the rearview mirror.

"Student, are you skipping class?"

Lu Sheng was stunned for a moment. Then, he smiled and nodded. "Yes, someone is treating me to a meal. I have to go even if I have to skip class."

"Looks like it's a big restaurant."

"Yes, it's quite high-class."

…

He Ling Su sat in the lobby of this high-class western restaurant. She wore a black one-piece dress and did not wear any jewellery. She only had simple makeup on, but she still looked very beautiful.

He Ling Su did not know how many times she had checked the time on her phone. She was very anxious.

It had only been five minutes since the appointed time, but He Ling Su felt like a long time had passed. She had waited for this day for too long.

She had thought that there was no hope. However, she did not expect that the other party would take the initiative to propose a collaboration with her.

He Ling Su was so happy that it took her less than 15 minutes to get dressed and arrive at the meeting place.

"Before the other party arrives, let's think about how to negotiate …" He Ling Su made a plan in her mind.

After taking over the family business for so long, she had seen many people and experienced many situations. She could be considered experienced.

"When it comes to cooperation, the most important thing is one's aura. As long as you overwhelm the other party with your aura, the direction of the conversation will naturally be controlled by you …"

This was what He Ling Su had learned in a business management class.

The other party was only a high school student. Even if his martial arts talent was a little strong, his aura definitely wouldn't be too strong. As long as I act a little stronger, there shouldn't be a problem.

What she was afraid of was that it wasn't just that high school student that would come.

He Ling Su frowned slightly.

She knew very well that such a prescription could not have been researched by a high school student.

There was probably someone behind the other party.

This time, the person who took the initiative to contact him was probably the mastermind behind the scenes.

"Ding ding-dong dong~"

Her phone rang.

He Ling Su glanced at the caller ID and quickly picked up the phone. Ma Fei's voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Miss He, he's here! He's here!"

"How many people?" He Lingsu asked.

"One, Lu Sheng himself. I don't see anyone else."

"Okay!"

He Ling Su hung up the phone and breathed a sigh of relief. If it was only that high school student Lu Sheng, it would be easy.

She was completely confident that she could take him down.

Thinking of this, He Ling Su regained her usual calmness and wisdom. She checked her makeup and clothes a little and sat quietly in her seat, waiting for the other party to arrive.

Not long after, He Ling Su saw a tall and lean boy walk in from outside the restaurant.

Just like on TV, to be precise, he was more dazzling than what He Ling su saw on TV.

The well-proportioned tall and slender body of martial arts student, coupled with fair skin and handsome facial features, made He Ling Su almost think that some idol star had appeared.

After the boy walked into the restaurant, he didn't make any moves to search for her. He walked straight to He Ling Su as if he already knew that she was sitting there.

The handsome boy walked to He Ling Su and sat down casually. He picked up the menu on the table and said to He Ling Su as if they were old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years, "I heard that the steaks in this restaurant are very good. Do you mind if we talk over lunch?"

"Of course."

He Ling Su faintly felt the opening to be a little different from what she had expected.

She was thinking about how to start when she heard the boy opposite her ask the waiter who had already followed them, "What's the best kind of steak you have?"

"The 1,288 kind, sir."

"Okay, then give me 20 steaks first, medium well."

"O … Okay, sir."

Uh …

He Ling Su choked and deliberately raised her head to look at the other party.

Was he a pig?

He wanted to eat 20 steaks in one sitting!

Yes, he was a martial arts student. It was normal for him to have a big appetite.

1,288 for one steak. Twenty steaks would be 25,600.

He Ling Su quickly did the math in her mind and felt the faint pain in her mind.

But when she thought about how the other party ate so much, he might not have the nerve to ask her to foot the bill, she felt relieved.

"Do you want to eat?"

Lu Sheng held the menu and asked.

He Ling Su shook her head.

She didn't have any appetite before they started talking.

"Okay, that's all for now." Lu Sheng waved the waiter away.

Seeing that Lu Sheng didn't do anything else, He Ling Su sorted out her thoughts and prepared to speak.

"Lu …"

"He Ling Su, 22 years old. ancestral home, Yi County, Guanglin City, Xing'an Province. Your great-great-great grandfather, He Jiming, was originally just an apprentice at Old Ji'an Medicine Shop.

"In the early decades of martial arts, he relied on his decent martial arts talent and outstanding pharmaceutical talent to become a Level 5 Pharmacist. He also founded Xingshan Tang …

"Xingshan Tang was quite prosperous in the early years. Branches spread across more than 20 cities in Dongning Province, totaling 213 branches …

"Unfortunately, due to poor management, it quickly declined in your father generation, He Hezhi …"

Before He Lingsu could say anything, she heard Lu Sheng ramble on.

After the initial shock, He Ling Su quickly calmed down and said with a hint of sarcasm, "Mr. Lu, what are you trying to say by reading such a long paragraph of information that can be easily found on the internet? Do you have an amazing memory?"

"No, not just that."

Lu Sheng smiled and said, "I also know that your mother, Chen Lan, hasn't returned to Dongning Province for 20 years due to family reasons. She hasn't seen you, her daughter, even once.

"The reason why your Xingshan Tang collapsed so quickly in your father's hands, other than the fact that it's really old-fashioned and poor management is your mother. The Chen Family, has been secretly suppressing it for many years …"

"What?!"

He Ling Su was so shocked that she accidentally spilled the lemonade on the table in front of her.

"Mr. Lu, are you telling the truth? You know some things can't be said with caution!"

He Ling Su stared into Lu Sheng's eyes, her expression turning fierce. However, Lu Sheng only needed to slightly lean his body forward to disintegrate her aura.

"Whether I'm telling the truth or not, you'll know when you go home and ask your father, He Hezhi … Thank you!"

Lu Sheng's 20 portions of steak arrived and filled the entire table. After that, Lu Sheng didn't say a word and focused on eating the steak in front of him.

To Lu Sheng, the taste of the steak didn't matter. What he cared about was the quality of the steak. The quality of the meat was high in nutrients and could provide more energy for his martial arts cultivation.

This was also the reason why he had chosen this restaurant.

At this moment, He Ling Su was in a state of deep shock and confusion. What Lu Sheng said about her mother was something that even she didn't know about.

However, her mother did indeed leave when she was two years old. Her father, He Hezhi, said that the two of them didn't have a good relationship and divorced very early on.

When she was young, He Ling Su had complained more than once about how cruel her mother was. She stayed with her father after the divorce. Why didn't she even come visit her for so many years?
