Chapter 606 - Proposal, One Favor Down

Lu Jin stared at Linfeng. He was not surprised that this man already had a clear picture of what would happen in the organization.

After all, this man was very nosy.

Linfeng continued. "If we talked about being just and fair, that small favor is not worth risking her surname and title at all."

Lu Jin frowned. He was about to refute him when the man spoke again.

"Of course. I know that it is under the business code of every businessman to hold up their end of deal. We are not backing out from our words in owing you a favor. So I am giving this proposal."

Lu Jin closed his mouth and continued to listen.

Linfeng's obsdian eyes were clear and sharp. No one knew what those eyes were really thinking.

"In the upcoming election for the IAmFashionista's head organizer, my Young Miss will stand neutral and will not vote for anyone's side."

Xiong Zhi: !!

Lu Jin: !!

The room turned silent.

Linfeng gave everyone time to process what he just said.

Xiong Zhi recovered. She inwardly nodded.

That's right. This was the only choice she could have. She could neither help them nor go against them at this time.

However...

Xiong Zhi felt complicated.

Not doing anything was the same as helping the enemy though, albeit subtly. The upcoming election was extremely important to secure the head organizer position. The legendary families' faction would need all the votes they could get. Refraining to vote for them could be critical.

Lu Jin was silent. His finger tapped on the armrest involuntarily. He contemplated and weighted things.

When he realized that he was tapping his finger again like his father did, he stopped.

After thinking for a while, Lu Jin opened his mouth. "Do you really mean what you say?" He looked at Xiong Zhi. "Are you agreeing with his words?"

Xiong Zhi pursed her lips and nodded firmly. "This is the best answer I can give to you as a favor. I can't join your faction as it is the same as losing my heiress title. But I can't go back on my word as a businessman. This is our final decision."

Lu Jin was once again silent.

If Xiong Zhi did not sign, then their faction would be in equal number against the legendary families' faction. It was like he was back to square one.

That man would surely be disappointed.

However, it was reassuring as well that at least one person was less a problem.

Lu Jin sighed.

He and his father prepared a back up plan in case he did not find the anonymous person. Lu Jin did not want to use that last choice and wanted to avoid it as much as possible. But seems like, it had to come to this. Although that plan was risky and immoral, it seemed that it was his only choice.

Lu Jin finally decided. "Alright. I have no choice but to take up on that. Liu Fung, prepare the doc.u.ments."

"No need. I can prepare them for you in a few minutes."

Linfeng took his own laptop and sat across Lu Jin.

The two men's eyes met again.

One was indifferently cold while the other was inquiring.

Xiong Zhi broke the silent confrontation. "Your initial conditions still stand, right? The five percent interest in the project proceedings of Mr. Liu Fung will be invalidated."

Liu Fung was about to disagree. They did not agree to his boss's favor yet they were asking this?

So shameless!

However, Lu Jin stopped him. "You can rest assured. You don't need to give us the five percent anymore. However, the rest of the conditions I listed earlier is no longer negotiable."

"Of course I understand."

Xiong Zhi did not push it. Getting that five percent back made her heart feel a little better. At least, she did not donate some money to their enemy!

Linfeng was really capable. In a few minutes, he made a detailed draft of the doc.u.ment. He printed it out and presented the copies to Xiong Zhi and Lu Jin.

It was a doc.u.ment settling the debt with the said condition. The two sides signed this paper, and thus, the first favor was considered settled.

Xiong Zhi was afraid to ask about the second favor, but she needed to prepare her heart for it.

So she asked. "You have one more favor remaining. I guess it's best to settle it right now."

Xiong Zhi wanted her heart and mind to be at ease. She doesn't want to owe their enemy and be used again to their advantage.

Lu Jin thought for a moment. He then shook his head and purposely said, "Not now. That one favor is supposed to be used for something urgent."

Xiong Zhi's heart skipped a beat. She was precisely dreading for that 'something urgent'.

Lu Jin found the faint change in her expression amusing. So even the ice cold queen could make an expression like they stepped on a piece of crap?

Lu Jin continued with an amused light in his eyes. "Maybe it will be my life-saving straw in the future."

He might be expressionless but the mirth in his eyes told the two that he was making a light joke. Though something within those dark pools held deep secrets.

Xiong Zhi and Linfeng: "..."

They watched the two men leave the room with blank expressions.

Xiong Zhi turned to Linfeng confusedly. "Did he just tell a joke with that cold face of his?"

Linfeng mused, "Since you heard exactly what I just heard, then it seems he really did. And he was bad at it."

"Right. I can't tell at all. That face looks so stiff."

"..."

A person with facial paralysis was calling another person's face with facial paralysis stiff.

Linfeng pressed down a smile that almost broke out.

What they did not know was that this joke they laughed at would come to reality in the far future.

(A/n: Ho. Ho.? If you look closely at Lu Jin's actions, the meaning behind his words, and to every flicker of his eyes, then you might perhaps be able to read him. We are slowly peeling his mask off little by little.

What vibes Lu Jin gives off for you?)
