Chapter 272: Chapter 271 He Family He Honghai [11,000 recommendation tickets bonus, third update]

Lu Xiaobu and Chen Kun, along with their companions, chatted and enjoyed their food and drinks, quite merrily.

Meanwhile, Lu Xiaobu was also subtly inquiring about news regarding the He Family.

After all, Lin Feng only gave him a clue about the Xiangjiang He Family, and he couldn’t even distinguish friend from foe, let alone how to find her traces.

Through Chen Kun’s description,

Lu Xiaobu gradually got a certain understanding of this Xiangjiang He Family.

He Family in Xiangjiang, Family Head He Deyue, with a net asset of eighty-nine billion, ranked fifteenth on the Third Level Rich List, a full ten places ahead of Lu Xiaobu.

Merely in terms of assets, whether the other party is an enemy or a friend, Lu Xiaobu wasn’t concerned at all.

However, what Lu Xiaobu cared about more was another identity of the He Family mentioned by Chen Kun—a Fengshui Family.

You must know, how much Xiangjiang people value Feng Shui, it’s almost ingrained in their bones.

No matter the level of wealth, class, or position, from the office environment, daily living, interior decoration to setting up companies, celebrating business openings, buying and decorating buildings, Xiangjiang people all pay attention to Feng Shui, favoring to invite Feng Shui Masters to ”check the Feng Shui”.

Therefore, the status of Feng Shui Masters in Xiangjiang is very high.

As a Fengshui Family, the He Family naturally has an extraordinary status in Xiangjiang.

The previous Ge Wen was also pursued so forcefully by Chen Kun and company precisely because he was favored by the He Family.

However, when Lu Xiaobu asked about whether the He Family had any contacts with people from the Mainland, or even if any women had married into the Mainland,

Chen Kun and the others all shook their heads resolutely, affirming, ”Absolutely not!”

”Why?” Lu Xiaobu asked, puzzled.

”People of the He Family, being a Fengshui Family, place extreme importance on Feng Shui. They carefully select husbands for every woman in the family. Since ancient times, there has not been a single He Family woman who has left Xiangjiang to marry afar. It is said they fear it would disrupt the Feng Shui and drain their luck.”

Chen Kun put down his wine glass, smiled, and explained: ”If Brother Lu is also interested in Feng Shui, then I could make an introduction. I think the He Family would be pleased to make your acquaintance.”

He also wanted to use this opportunity to defuse the potential conflict between Lu Xiaobu and the He Family.

After all, Lu Xiaobu might be powerful, but to confront the He Family, he’s somewhat overestimating himself.

”Oh? Sure.”

Lu Xiaobu readily agreed.

If he could make contact with the He Family, it would make his investigation more convenient.

As they were chatting,

The door to their private room was suddenly flung open.

This made all the celebrities startle, as it shouldn’t have happened!

They absolutely trusted the confidentiality measures of this club.

Logically, outsiders shouldn’t have been able to get in.

However, when they saw who had come, they immediately understood.

So, one after another, they all stood up and politely greeted: ”Young Master He.”

Even Chen Kun was no exception, standing up and respectfully saying: ”Good to see you, Young Master He.”

Lu Xiaobu raised an eyebrow.

This person had the freedom to come and go in this highly secure club.

And even Chen Kun couldn’t avoid paying his respects.

Furthermore, the person’s surname was He.

Without a doubt, this must be someone from that extraordinary Fengshui Family—the He Family—that they were just discussing.

It seems that luck is on his side, to be able to come into contact with someone from the He Family so soon!

Thus, Lu Xiaobu’s gaze shifted to the newcomer.

With clear eyes and noble features, a unique aura emanated from him.

This was Lu Xiaobu’s first impression.

However, upon a closer look, there was an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

This made Lu Xiaobu somewhat astonished.

It was clearly his first encounter!

While Lu Xiaobu sized up the newcomer,

He Honghai was also observing Lu Xiaobu.

Unrestrained, at ease, and lazy.

And beneath it all, a hidden hint of domineering presence.

This was He Honghai’s impression of Lu Xiaobu.

Similarly, he felt a hint of an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

”You’re the one who just made sarcastic remarks at Ge Wen, right?”

He Honghai broke the silence, inquiring in a not-so-friendly tone.
