When Chu Ningyi’s eyes landed on the person who had arrived, his brows furrowed unconsciously.
‘Luo Xuan!’
He was not well acquainted with Luo Xuan, one could say that Luo Xuan has never visited ‘A’ City before. His activities were mainly based in European and American cities so Chu Ningyi never expected to see him here today.
Apparently, Luo Xuan’s mother was French and had violet eyes so Luo Xuan had inherited his violet eyes from her.
His mother was a freelance writer and her work was highly recommended by Europeans and Americans. Luo Xuan had followed his mother’s footsteps and was a freelance writer too.
However, what was he doing here?
Shui Anluo looked back and stared at Chu Ningyi, noticing his tight frown.
“The Chu Group will make a public statement in regards to this matter. Soaring Distance Technologies will become a supplementary branch under the Chu Group and families of the deceased will receive material assistance and aid from the Chu Group for the next twenty years,” Chu Ningyi declared in a serious voice.
With the Chu Group’s guarantee, the crowd finally calmed down.
“Since we have a guarantee from the prince of ‘A’ City, I believe that there’s nothing more to discuss here.” Luo Xuan smiled again as he spoke. His gaze had been fixed on Shui Anluo the entire time.
She was such a little girl and not like her mother at all. Her mother was so beautiful that it was almost insolent. Shui Anluo’s beauty, on the other hand, was more implicit instead of obvious.
Shui Anluo felt uncomfortable from his stare and instinctively tried to hide behind Chu Ningyi. However, she still stuck her neck out to look at him and angrily retorted, “What’re you looking at?”
The reason behind her anger was likely not due to his stare but the way he had seemed to measure her up. It caused Shui Anluo to feel absolutely horrified.
“What a small pepper,” Luo Xuan chuckled. He then looked at Chu Ningyi. “As Director Chu had made the statement, I believe that you won’t go back on your word. If some people hadn’t caused trouble on purpose, this farce would have ended long ago.”
Luo Xuan did not speak loudly but his voice was clear enough for some to hear, especially the words ’caused trouble on purpose’. He had enunciated those words very clearly and it sent whispers throughout the crowd.
The security guards soon dispersed the crowd and Shui Anluo heaved a sigh of relief.
Once the crowd had left, the chauffeur handed his phone over to Chu Ningyi. On the screen was a picture he had just taken, it was the person who had caused a ruckus on purpose.
Chu Ningyi looked down. The photo was of a stalwart man with a fierce-looking face. He was dressed in cheap clothes. The dirt on his clothes showed that he had not washed them for a very long time.
“Find this person and see who he’s been in contact with,” Chu Ningyi ordered and handed the phone back to his chauffeur.
The chauffeur lowered his head and left. The scene has pretty much quietened down by now.
When Chu Ningyi turned again to look, Luo Xuan had already disappeared.
Chu Ningyi frowned but did not overanalyze Luo Xuan’s objective for being here. Instead, he lowered his head and stared at Shui Anluo who was leaning against the car as she panting loudly. He chuckled softly.
“What’s so funny?” Shui Anluo looked up and sent him a vicious glare though her voice sounded a little pitiful. She had been terrified this entire time and yet this guy was actually laughing at her.
“Weren’t you the one who insisted on getting out of the car?” Chu Ningyi leaned against the car as well and crossed his arms as he stared at her. She had not asked for his help and had insisted on doing things on her own. He really believes that this girl has a lot of guts.
Shui Anluo rolled her eyes up into the heavens and finally turned to Chu Ningyi. “What did you mean by ‘supplementary branch’?” All she knew was that a branch would have to be bought out.
