Inheritance of Two Trillion-Chapter 86 Chen Ming_1

The security guard led Bai Xiaosheng and Zhengdong Province to an elevator and coldly gave them a card, instructed them briefly, and then turned and left.

The card was a temporary access permit from the security department; with it, they could reach the top floor by operating the elevator.

On his way back to the entrance, the security guard suddenly furrowed his eyebrows, one hand on his earpiece as if he had heard something unbelievable, his face showing a flicker of shock.

Then, he saw the middle-aged man with a head of "granny grey" hair coming toward him, his expression stern and somewhat impatient.

The guard’s face turned pale, and he quickly ran to meet him.

"Where are they!" the middle-aged man demanded without waiting for the guard to speak.

"Over there!" the guard quickly pointed.

Far away, Bai Xiaosheng and Zhengdong Province were still waiting.

The middle-aged man ignored the guard and strode quickly toward them.

The guard swallowed his saliva nervously and glanced around a couple of times with a look of unsettled alarm before quickly fleeing the scene.

In the Tiannan Pearl Tower, there are over a dozen elevator lobbies, and the one Bai Xiaosheng and Zhengdong Province were waiting at was exclusively for senior-level personnel.

Due to the Mingzhu Tower’s policy, everyone waiting for the elevator here was dressed formally, so his attire stood out starkly.

Zhengdong Province was boasting to Bai Xiaosheng about his network in Tiannan, full of pride. Bai Xiaosheng smiled and played the role of a good listener. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓

"Excuse me, are you Mr. Bai Xiaosheng?" Suddenly, a voice came from behind him.

Bai Xiaosheng turned around.

He saw a middle-aged man with a head full of grey hair but skin fair like that of a man in his thirties or forties, wearing a warm smile. He appeared very cultured, but the aura emanating from the corners of his eyes and brows was even stronger than that of Shang Wenshu.

"Who are you?" Bai Xiaosheng asked curiously.

He was certain he had never seen such a person before.

"I’m here on behalf of Master Song Kai. I apologize for being a step late!" The middle-aged man said with a smile, full of affability, introducing himself, "My name is Chen Ming."

Chen Ming?

At the same time Bai Xiaosheng heard the name, his mind spun, and Red Lotus swiftly searched for all the information on "Mingzhu Tower, Chen Ming."

When he found the information, Bai Xiaosheng took a sharp breath.

Chen Ming, the overall person in charge of Tiannan Pearl Tower, vice president of the development company, and, given that the development company was state-owned, he was even more powerful than Shang Wenshu!

What astonished Bai Xiaosheng was—

From Chen Ming’s tone, he even called Master Song Kai his teacher!

Were the disciples of Master Song Kai really this formidable?

Bai Xiaosheng now had a renewed recognition of the master.

No wonder Shang Wenshu and Wang Ye were so respectful, even more cautious than when dealing with the mayor.

"May I have a word with you in private?" Chen Ming made a gesture inviting him aside.

Bai Xiaosheng followed him to a quieter area.

Zhengdong Province stayed back, knowing to give them space.

To be honest, Chen Ming was also surprised by Bai Xiaosheng’s youth. The person his own teacher admired turned out to be such a young man.

However, beyond the surprise, there was not a hint of condescension on Chen Ming’s face.

After a few words of conversation, Bai Xiaosheng’s natural speech and polite demeanor greatly impressed Chen Ming.

"In our teacher’s eyes, you’re really someone special! He repeatedly emphasized to me that you must not be neglected!"

Chen Ming’s smile was warm, and he conversed with Bai Xiaosheng as if they were friends, treating him as an equal.

"Your gathering is at Qingyun Pavilion? That’s a small private room. I’ll change it to a larger private room for you right now and prepare another banquet. All expenses will be on me, don’t argue with me about this. You should give this face to your elder brother!"

Chen Ming’s tone was nearly indisputable.

"Then I’ll climb on the shoulders of a giant and call you Elder Brother," Bai Xiaosheng replied with a genuine smile, not wanting to be artificial, "Elder Brother Chen, I appreciate your generosity, but this classmates meeting is not hosted by me. Besides, the person who invited me... we have quite a significant conflict!"

Bai Xiaosheng didn’t elaborate, but his eyes turned cold.

Chen Ming, being who he was, understood immediately and said with an unchanged smile, "Alright, we’ll forget about it this time."

Chen Ming paused, then continued, "Here, my words still hold weight. It’s not bad for young people to seek pleasure in friendship and grudge!"

Chen Ming said no more.

Bai Xiaosheng laughed.

"Then I thank Elder Chen!"

"No need, just bring your teacher to visit me more often when you have time," Chen Ming said with a smile.

By the time Bai Xiaosheng returned, Zhengdong Province had become a bit impatient.

"We’ve missed several elevators already. Hey, was that your friend just now?" Zhengdong Province asked.

Bai Xiaosheng nodded and directly motioned for him to follow in another direction.

"Not waiting for the elevator? It will be here in a few more minutes," Zhengdong Province called out.

Bai Xiaosheng made a silencing gesture, glanced at the people nearby, and whispered to Zhengdong Province, "My friend just told me there’s a seldom-used one over there, and it’s available right now, let’s hurry."

Such a good deal?

Zhengdong Province hurriedly followed behind Bai Xiaosheng. They turned a corner and pushed open a door, and indeed, inside was an elevator.

The operator wasn’t the middle-aged woman from outside but a very young and beautiful woman, like a movie star, dressed in a white blouse, a skirt that didn’t go past the knees, black stockings, and high heels, her smile sweet and her appearance sexy.

"Are all elevator operators this good-looking now?" Zhengdong Province said, amazed.

The two entered the elevator, and Bai Xiaosheng, pretending to act normally, handed over the slip of paper given by the security guard. The secretary-like beauty took it with a continous smile, and pressed the button for the top floor.

The elevator was fast and stable. Zhengdong Province was even lingering in the scent of the beautiful woman’s high-end perfume when suddenly they had arrived.

"Walk straight down this corridor to the end, and on your left hand side, you’ll find Qingyun Pavilion," said the beauty with a sweet voice and a cheerful smile.

Zhengdong Province was somewhat reluctant to leave, but Bai Xiaosheng dragged him away forcefully.

The corridor on the top floor was extremely spacious, several meters in height, offering a grand and open view, comparable to the lobby of a five-star hotel.

Doors sat spaced far apart on either side.

"Chongshan Pavilion," "Fengyue Building," "Chunshui Crossing"...

All were names with individual character or poetic charm.

There were some people coming and going, entering and exiting the various private rooms, and Zhengdong Province wanted to take a peek inside but didn’t want to appear uncouth, so he refrained.

Finally, they arrived in front of Qingyun Pavilion.

Before they could push the door open, it was opened from the inside by a frail, tall man.

Upon seeing Bai Xiaosheng and his companion, both sides were stunned.

"Bai, Zheng!" the man said, overjoyed.

"Lu Nan!" Bai Xiaosheng and Zhengdong Province were also surprised and delighted.

In their last year of college, not everyone shunned Bai Xiaosheng and his brother like a plague, fearing to avoid them.

Some always believed in their character and even went to great lengths to help them.

Lu Nan was one of them!

As the three reunited, they were surprised and delighted, feeling as if there were so many things to say.

"Look at you, kid, you’re doing pretty well, must be making a fortune," laughed Zhengdong Province.

"So-so," Lu Nan said with a smile, shaking his head, his face seemingly shaded with slight worries, which he then concealed, "Who doesn’t have ups and downs in life, if there are no ravines and potholes, can it still be called living?"

Lu Nan looked at Bai Xiaosheng.

Dressed casually, no brand could be seen, yet his demeanor was relaxed and carefree.

The most outstanding of his peers had actually come to this!

Lu Nan couldn’t help feeling a bit melancholic.

"Come on, let’s go inside and talk!"

Lu Nan held the door open for Bai Xiaosheng, who gave a slight smile and stepped inside.

I’m here!
