Chapter 136: Yacht Party

~7 min read 1,385 words

He acted as soon as he decided; in truth, Lu Chen didn't have much to pack, nothing more than some suits and documents.

As for truly valuable items, they were in his portable space, so there was no need to pack them at all.

Lu Chen called for Steward Wang and gave a few instructions in a low voice.

It wasn't until Shen Wanyu returned that Lu Chen and Professor Li got up to have dinner.

He left the Zhuangyuan one after the other with Professor Li.

"BOSS, this is the itemized list of recent company operating expenses. Would you like to take a look?"

Shen Wanyu sat beside Lu Chen and asked in a low voice.

"No need. As long as you keep track of how much is spent, you don't need to report every little thing to me."

Lu Chen closed his eyes, feeling a bit of a headache, and tapped his fingers lightly on the seat.

"Then starting tomorrow, according to the professor's arrangements, I will serve as your law tutor. If you have any questions about any law book, you can ask me. If there is anything I don't know, we can consult the professor at any time."

Shen Wanyu said this softly, then stopped speaking, just sitting quietly across from Lu Chen, watching him silently.

Lu Chen nodded slightly.

"Chen Mo, bring your daughter here tomorrow too. Steward Wang, is everything arranged over there?"

"Master, it has already been arranged. We just finished tidying up this afternoon. There is still a small portion left, but it will all be arranged by tomorrow."

Steward Wang, who was driving, reported in a low voice.

"Security is already in place. We have conducted anti-eavesdropping operations on key locations and found no suspicious items. You can move in with peace of mind."

Chen Mo's voice was a bit hoarse, and he coughed twice.

Lu Chen nodded slightly and sighed.

After returning to the Zhuangyuan, he looked at the somewhat unfamiliar decor and sighed slightly.

Shen Wanyu, Steward Wang, and even Chen Mo all went to get busy.

Lu Chen sat in the main seat, flipping through the newspaper out of boredom, silently smoking a Cigar.

"Master, your room is ready. Secretary Shen's room is right next to yours, and my room and Manager Chen's are on the first floor."

After a while, Steward Wang hurried over, bowed slightly, and spoke in a low voice.

Lu Chen nodded slightly and went straight back to his room.

This place was indeed decorated more luxuriously than the one on the hillside, but it was also much quieter.

It did make Lu Chen feel a bit unaccustomed; to be precise, this subtle sensation made him feel a bit uneasy.

In the end, Lu Chen returned to his portable space.

He silently toyed with the Small Box, his eyes hollow as he looked at the two wooden boxes placed on the table.

After a long time, he finally went to bed.

Early morning.

The Zhuangyuan lacked its usual bustle.

Seeing Lu Chen come down, Shen Wanyu handed him a pre-warmed Cigar.

The coffee was warm, just right for drinking, and the newspaper had already been placed within Lu Chen's reach.

After taking a puff of the Cigar, Lu Chen began to flip through the newspaper, but there was nothing that particularly interested him.

After finishing the Cigar, Lu Chen got up and went to the dining room.

It was still the familiar taste; it could be said that the entire staff from the original Zhuangyuan had moved over, and that place must have hired new people.

After a simple meal, Lu Chen returned to the reception hall, where Shen Wanyu had already put away the newspaper and replaced it with civil law.

Lu Chen looked at Shen Wanyu with some helplessness, opened the civil law book, and began to read.

Dull and tasteless.

Hmm, mechanical legal clauses, not interesting at all; they weren't even as fun as those boring newspapers.

However, Lu Chen still flipped through them quickly.

Throughout the entire morning, several groups of people came to the reception hall: those installing telephones, checking circuits, and even painting the exterior walls.

But none of this required Lu Chen to step in; Steward Wang had already arranged everything in an orderly fashion.

Lu Chen tried to walk around a few times, but was forced back by Shen Wanyu's stern gaze.

"BOSS, how was your self-study this morning? Are there any questions you don't understand? I can answer them for you."

Shen Wanyu glanced at her watch and said softly.

"You have a yacht party to attend this afternoon."

Lu Chen recited the content he had flipped through in the morning directly, even though he hadn't understood it yet.

But it made the expression on Shen Wanyu's face increasingly surprised.

After a long while, she spoke softly.

"BOSS, you have a photographic memory? That is really too much."

Then she stood up and walked straight toward the dining room.

Lu Chen smiled helplessly, stood up, and also walked to the dining room.

Although this thing was usually useless, in reality, it was actually a bit painful.

After a simple meal, Lu Chen returned to his bedroom to take another shower and changed into a suit.

"Master, we should set off in one hour."

Steward Wang bowed slightly and said in a low voice.

"We are heading to Victoria Harbour today for the Elizabeth yacht; the trip is for three days and two nights. I will board the ship with you."

Lu Chen nodded slightly, lit a 555, and after a few seconds, spoke in a low voice.

"This yacht party is the one Director Wei Er invited me to last time, right?"

"Yes."

Steward Wang followed by Lu Chen's side and spoke softly.

Getting into the car, Lu Chen did not speak again, but sat quietly, watching the bustling appearance of the streets, feeling somewhat moved in his heart; when passing by Huangguan Yinhang, Lu Chen took a deep look at it.

Only now did he board Victoria Harbour for the first time.

Having been in Xianggang for so long, Lu Chen had truly never been to the most prosperous harbour in Xianggang.

The car drove directly to a spot not far from the yacht at the pier.

Lu Chen straightened his suit before getting out of the car with Steward Wang.

Following Steward Wang's guidance, he arrived at the pier.

Lu Chen did not recognize the vast majority of the people in various suits and leather shoes.

But a flash of a red dress in the crowd, a tall figure, made Lu Chen

feel a sense of peace in his heart.

"Welcome, Chairman Lu."

Wei Er stood in front of the yacht and shook hands with Lu Chen.

"This is your first time attending a yacht party, right?"

"Yes, do you have any advice?"

Lu Chen wore a smile on his face and glanced at Luosha, who had already walked to the second floor.

Only then did he speak softly in response.

"I heard that Professor Li is going to retire and will likely designate you to hold his shares on his behalf; now you will be holding shares for two shareholders, so your opinions will be too important for our Huangguan in the future."

Wei Er spoke softly with a beaming smile.

"You are one of my Huangguan people, so naturally you will strive for the interests of my Huangguan."

"That is only natural."

Lu Chen nodded with a smile on his face.

"The matter of Professor Li's retirement hasn't been finalized yet; your information is quite well-informed?"

"It'll be a year or two at most; please come this way, that is the sign-in location where you will receive the agenda and room card; the third floor and above are for accommodation, the restaurant is on the second floor, and the first floor and the underground cabin are recreation rooms—you can go play if you have nothing to do."

Wei Er wore a smile on his face, gently patted Lu Chen's shoulder, and went to greet another stranger.

Lu Chen took a deep look at Wei Er and boarded the ship.

Although this vessel was called a yacht, its scale was about the same as a passenger ship.
