Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 1154: Chapter 1142: Visiting the Song Family

Lu Yun wanted to use his promise to Bai Xiaosheng—the ”ten-year pact”—to help him fulfill his ”three-year agreement” with Wei Xuelian.

But Bai Xiaosheng refused.

Lu Yun sighed, thinking Bai Xiaosheng didn’t want to waste the pact he had with the Lu Family.

In fact, on this matter, Lu Yun wasn’t taking advantage of someone in trouble, nor did he intend to deceive Bai Xiaosheng and settle their pact prematurely.

Lu Yun was serious.

If Bai Xiaosheng had agreed, Lu Yun would have gone to great lengths, even at great cost, to win him an opportunity, a chance to be accepted by the Wei Family.

Of course, the final outcome would depend on Bai Xiaosheng, and even whether fate looked kindly upon this couple who felt destined for each other from their first meeting.

In this affair, the Lu Family would certainly honor their ”ten-year pact.”

”Give it more thought; using our pact on this matter wouldn’t put you at a disadvantage,” Lu Yun earnestly advised.

Because he valued Bai Xiaosheng, Lu Yun didn’t mind the refusal and wanted to explain patiently instead.

”No, Uncle Lu, you misunderstand,” Bai Xiaosheng began with a smile, ”My turning down your help doesn’t mean I’m reluctant to use the pact I have with you and the Lu Family.”

”I just feel that a man’s pursuit of a woman is entirely his own business. It would be wrong to have a friend’s high status or wealth prompt her to agree; what would that count for? Friends can only add to the splendor, not be the main force. I don’t want to develop the habit of depending on others!”

”All I want to know is the standing of the Wei Family and where they are. After that, I’ll pursue it myself.”

”I know that with my current identity and status, the Wei Family may look down on me, but what I seek is an opportunity!”

”After getting that opportunity, I will prove myself in the shortest possible time and show I’m worthy of their daughter!”

Bai Xiaosheng’s words weren’t impassioned but were delivered with utmost seriousness.

His eyes, bright when he spoke of this matter, were filled with belief and determination.

Lu Yun sighed lightly and smiled.

In truth, Lu Yun still had his doubts about Bai Xiaosheng’s chances of success with the Wei Family.

Yet Bai Xiaosheng’s courage and authenticity deeply moved him.

”Later on, I’ll give you some information about the Wei Family. Take a look,” Lu Yun said, ”Sheng, I’ll do my best to help you!”

The support from Lu Yun and the Lu Family shifted from ”all-out effort” to ”do my best,” yet Bai Xiaosheng showed no hint of disappointment.

”Actually, it’s not that there is no hope at all. After all, you, Bai Xiaosheng, have changed with the times and have many friends in the country!”

”With me, Lu Yun, Master Song Kai, and Mr. Xiahou Qi, although our influence is mostly in the Greater China Region, if we all come together to provide you with a stepping stone, entering the Wei Family’s door won’t be a problem,” Lu Yun said with a smile.

The Wei Family’s threshold was high and deep. Without an adequate stepping stone, Bai Xiaosheng, with his current status, might not even gain entry.

Bai Xiaosheng smiled gratefully; he naturally understood this.

”But from then on, it truly depends on you, Sheng! The opportunity given by the Wei Family sounds simple, but it’s quite challenging—I know how hard it can be! Everything must be fought for by yourself!”

”If you change your mind and want the help of the Lu Family, my ten-year pact stands—I’ll dedicate all my efforts!” Lu Yun said, still feeling compelled to emphasize this point at the end.

Zhenbei Group, a world-class consortium.

The Wei Family was on the same level.

The stratum these represented was a peak higher than the Himalayas, which would be extremely tough for Bai Xiaosheng to surmount on his own.

However, Lu Yun faintly hoped.

Bai Xiaosheng’s words might just create a miracle!

”Uncle Lu, don’t worry. A stepping stone is enough!” Bai Xiaosheng said with a laugh.

Lu Yun nodded and spoke at length about the Wei Family, which Bai Xiaosheng listened to intently and memorized.

Half an hour later, Master Song Kai returned gleefully, personally carrying a bottle of wine.

Accompanied by the overly talkative Wei Feng, it turned out the old master had just had a few key medical checks before running to the wine cellar to select this wine.

Despite being Song Family’s own brew, in terms of raw materials, brewing techniques, and even the winemakers, it was on par with some of the major European wineries!

Manpower, equipment, cellaring—the cumulative cost was quite steep!

Master Song Kai had Wei Feng bring cups and then asked him to leave, leaving the three to taste the wine.

In between, Master Song Kai mentioned that Bai Xiaosheng’s two assistants, Lin Yatou and the big fellow Lei Ying, had gone to rest in the restaurant. He had also sent them a fine wine to enjoy, assuring Bai Xiaosheng not to worry.

Bai Xiaosheng thanked him with a laugh.

Lu Yun was quite touched by this.

Just because they were Bai Xiaosheng’s assistants, Master Song Kai still took personal care of them—this alone showed how much Song Kai valued Bai Xiaosheng!

”Then I can rest easy, Master Song Kai will surely agree to join me in procuring a ’stepping stone’ for Bai Xiaosheng!” Lu Yun felt confident.

The more support, the better for Bai Xiaosheng!

While sampling the wine, Lu Yun, with Bai Xiaosheng’s consent, shared with Master Song Kai Bai Xiaosheng’s wish to visit the Wei Family and Wei Xuelian’s request for a formal relationship.

”This matter isn’t like any other. Relying solely on my face value as a stepping stone might not be convincing enough. Thus, I hope Elder Song, and even Elder Xia, will lend a hand to amass a strong stepping stone for Bai Xiaosheng!” Lu Yun stated.
