Inheritance of Two Trillion Chapter 2723 - 1942: We’re All Among Friends (Part 2)
Previously on Inheritance of Two Trillion...
"Why does this subway style look so... similar to the ones back home?" Lin Weiwei muttered.
Bai Xiaosheng had a quick thought and asked Red Lotus to check the information, then he laughed.
"Of course it’s similar—it’s constructed by companies from our country. And you know what, Zhengdong is involved too."
What Bai Xiaosheng referred to as Zhengdong was, of course, Zhengdong Province.
"Is that true?" Lin Weiwei heard this and chuckled, "So we actually helped build it too, no wonder it feels so familiar."
This conversation was conducted in Huaxia language among the three of them, and the surrounding people were unresponsive.
Only a female subordinate beside the blonde beauty couldn’t help but glance at Bai Xiaosheng and the others; she seemed to understand Huaxia language.
The blonde beauty, who was focused on her tablet, did not look up, only furrowed her brows in displeasure.
It seemed Bai Xiaosheng and company were too loud, disturbing her.
Actually, there were also whispers among the white and black passengers in the carriage.
Bai Xiaosheng didn’t notice it intentionally but pretended not to see it. He didn’t want any trouble during this journey.
Twenty minutes later, the subway arrived at the city center station.
The blonde beauty and her group got off first, followed by Bai Xiaosheng and his companions.
They all disembarked at the same station but headed to different exits.
Once away from Bai Xiaosheng and the others, the blonde beauty couldn’t help but express her annoyance, "So irritating!"
The female subordinate beside her knew that her boss was under great pressure from a recent business deal with Huaxia partners and had heard that an important figure from the Huaxia collaborator was in town. That’s why she rushed to arrange a meeting, feeling frustrated with those Huaxia people.
"Miss Mollya, those people..."
The female subordinate hesitated before deciding to bravely remind her of a piece of information.
After all, she is a secretary and also acts as a translator, understanding Huaxia language.
The blonde beauty looked at her subordinate, frowning, "What is it?"
"They said their company was involved in constructing the subway we just took. So I thought, maybe they are related to our Huaxia partners—or maybe not," the subordinate murmured.
Blonde beauty Mollya froze and glanced back.
The bustling crowd left no sign of those three figures.
"Such coincidences don’t happen." Mollya said, "Look at how young they are—to think they are some high-level management from that Huaxia company? Maybe it’s a misunderstanding."
The female subordinate nodded repeatedly, but internally thought: Speaking of age, you’re not old either, yet you hold a high position...
Of course, Miss Mollya’s status is owed more to her mother and her distinguished background...
Meanwhile, Bai Xiaosheng and company exited the subway station.
Looking at the clean and refreshing city, the three felt cheerful.
With high skies and light clouds, the surrounding buildings all have at least several decades or even centuries of history, perfectly preserving their original architectural style—looking like a scene from a painting.
Lin Weiwei immediately marveled, "I’ve got to take some street photos first. Who knew this Luoen City had such beautiful scenery."
At the moment, Bai Xiaosheng and Lei Ying didn’t feel particularly hungry, since Lin Weiwei was in high spirits, they decided to accompany her for a little exploration.
And so, the three walked through three streets.
In the end, Lin Weiwei was satisfied.
"Let’s go, I’ll treat you to a nice meal." Bai Xiaosheng suggested with a smile.
It’s mealtime—let’s enjoy a feast as a reward for the day and see what’s different about South American delicacies.
Lin Weiwei, Lei Ying naturally nodded at this.
Currently, the three were walking in the bustling city center of Luoen, a location considered prime and valuable in any city, where restaurants are expected to be excellent.
Soon, the three found their target—a magnificently decorated restaurant bearing the Michelin three-star label.
A waiter at the door, upon seeing Bai Xiaosheng and company approaching, lit up with excitement and came forward proactively.
"Excuse me, gentlemen, how many of you are there?" the waiter politely asked Bai Xiaosheng, with special attentiveness, looking at Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying.
"Just the three of us." Bai Xiaosheng replied.
Wasn’t that obvious?
"Two gentlemen and one lady, that’s perfect. Please follow me." The waiter said, overflowing with smiles.
Bai Xiaosheng was taken aback.
What’s "that’s perfect" supposed to mean?
But it might just be a casual greeting or a slip of the tongue.
Bai Xiaosheng didn’t give it much thought, as he led Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying to follow the waiter inside.
After entering, the restaurant manager greeted them, also wearing a smile. He whispered something to the waiter, then personally led Bai Xiaosheng and his group toward a private room.
Do everyone in this restaurant know how to conduct business so well? They even anticipate their desire for a quiet dining environment?
Even the restaurant manager is guiding them?
Bai Xiaosheng was a bit surprised.
When the manager led the three to a private room door, Bai Xiaosheng sensed something was off.
There were two bodyguards in black suits standing at the door; there were already people here.
The manager nodded at the bodyguards and gestured at Bai Xiaosheng and the others before leaving.
"Manager, what’s this about?" Bai Xiaosheng quickly grabbed the restaurant manager to ask.
"Your friends are inside and have been waiting for a long time." The manager smiled.
These words left Bai Xiaosheng and the others puzzled.
Friends?
Who?
As they were perplexed, the manager left directly.
"We do have many friends in South America, but who could it be?" Lei Ying muttered.
"We’ll find out once we look." Lin Weiwei said, glancing at Bai Xiaosheng.
Bai Xiaosheng slightly nodded.
Since they’re here, they might as well take a look.
The three walked straight in.
The two bodyguards exchanged a look, hesitating a bit before opening the door.
Inside, Bai Xiaosheng and his friends had many guesses.
Remembering how they spent quite a long time in South America, they made many friends. But as for who was behind the door, there were many possibilities.
Once inside, the three were stunned.
The large table had one person sitting with several others standing behind them.
Seated was a woman, with a beautiful face, a nice figure, and an air of elegance. She looked familiar, especially with that blonde hair.
Isn’t that the woman they ran into on the subway an hour ago?
The woman originally wore a smile but froze seeing Bai Xiaosheng and company enter.
Red Lotus, Lei Ying, Bai Xiaosheng, and Mollya stared at each other silently.
Just as Bai Xiaosheng wanted to apologize with a "mistake" and leave with Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying, the blonde beauty Mollya regained her composure, smiled, stood up, and said, "Turns out the three of you are high-ranking members of Shengsheng International, my apologies!"
Originally, Bai Xiaosheng intended to leave.
But upon hearing "Shengsheng International," he stopped.
Shengsheng International, the company founded by Bai Xiaosheng and Zhengdong Province, is currently growing rapidly. The subway they took earlier was constructed with equipment and technology from Shengsheng International.
Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying exchanged a glance.
"So this lady was supposed to meet with someone from our company." Bai Xiaosheng murmured.
Seeing him admit it, Mollya felt reassured, smiling, "I am Mollya, Vice President of the MMD Group. Judging by your age, you must be Vice President Guo Yun."
Although you look much younger than stated in the documents, you must be well-maintained.
Bai Xiaosheng couldn’t help but nod slightly; his intention wasn’t to confirm he was Guo Yun, but simply to express he was familiar with the name as it belongs to his company.
Mollya mistook this unconscious nod as an acknowledgment.
"Mr. Guo, please have a seat, let’s eat and talk!" Mollya smiled.
Bai Xiaosheng exchanged a glance with Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying.
The two were tired of walking and wanted to rest, and they were hungry and wanted to eat.
Lin Weiwei muttered, "I think... why not just eat here, after all, we are not outsiders."
