Inheritance of Two Trillion Chapter 2797 - 1976: Bai Xiaosheng’s Arrangement
Previously on Inheritance of Two Trillion...
In front of "Mr. Guoba," Bai Xiaosheng didn’t say much to Elder Zate, only mentioning that Mr. Auston would contact them later for further negotiation and exchange on "collaboration" matters.
Elder Zate nodded repeatedly; after all, he didn’t have time to sit down and chat about this matter slowly.
A group of big shots was still sitting in the VIP room, and he needed to hurry back to entertain them.
"May I know how to address you, sir?" Elder Zate specifically inquired about Bai Xiaosheng’s name.
This Chinese advisor of Auston had quite impressed him.
"You can call me Lin Sheng," Bai Xiaosheng said calmly, "or just ’Lin’. "
This was a pseudonym Bai Xiaosheng had used before.
"Mr. Guoba" couldn’t help but glance at Bai Xiaosheng, knowing his real name.
Why did he change his name in front of Elder Zate?
"Lin." Elder Zate nodded, awkwardly repeating the word.
Huaxia names are somewhat difficult to remember for people like them, largely due to pronunciation issues.
But remembering just this one character wasn’t too hard.
"Alright then, Lin, I can verbally agree to Mr. Auston’s proposal for collaboration now. However, your primary task is to maintain confidentiality, not a word of it should be leaked! That is the precondition for everything!" Elder Zate emphasized seriously, "If there’s any leak of information, it will cause enormous trouble for us. For the entire Auston Family... it would be deadly!"
The last three words he spoke with a grave, meaningful tone.
This was almost an implicit threat.
"Mr. Guoba" suddenly felt a bit nervous, looking at Bai Xiaosheng.
Bai Xiaosheng smiled faintly, "There’s no need for Mr. Zate to worry about that. We are also in it for long-term benefits and will not be shortsighted. Everything will be handled properly."
Seeing Bai Xiaosheng speak with such confidence, it’s likely that Auston, being a deeply scheming person, would also have considered everything thoroughly.
Elder Zate nodded immediately, "That’s good then!"
Then, Elder Zate patted his thigh and stood up, "I’m quite busy here now, so I won’t keep you any longer. After you get back, please have Mr. Auston contact us as soon as possible!"
Bai Xiaosheng and "Mr. Guoba" stood up accordingly.
"Then, we’ll take our leave first, Mr. Zate," Bai Xiaosheng said.
Elder Zate nodded approvingly.
The two sides left the room, parting ways at the door of the lounge.
Bai Xiaosheng left directly with "Mr. Guoba."
Elder Zate watched the backs of the two, his eyes flickering with uncertainty.
For better or worse, this matter at least saw some resolution.
Only when he couldn’t see their backs anymore did Elder Zate turn and head towards the VIP room.
Halfway there, Abbot caught up, saying that the other people’s issues had been properly handled.
With Abbot handling matters, Elder Zate felt assured, exhaling heavily before leading him to the VIP room together.
...
Bai Xiaosheng and "Mr. Guoba" walked towards the exit.
Upon reaching the lobby, "Mr. Guoba" suddenly recalled Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying and hurriedly said, "We haven’t called for your two companions yet..."
"No need, they’ve already left early. I gave them tasks to attend to," Bai Xiaosheng replied casually.
"Mr. Guoba" hesitated, then nodded.
Afterward, he felt something was off; those two didn’t need calling, but his own companions were still in the lounge.
Anticipating what "Mr. Guoba" would say next, Bai Xiaosheng continued, "I’ve notified your driver and assistant too; they’re already waiting for us in the car."
Only then did "Mr. Guoba" exclaim, "Oh," and repeatedly said, "You thought that through! When did you arrange all this, when I went to the restroom?"
Bai Xiaosheng nodded, glanced at him, and asked with a smile, "Does your stomach still hurt?"
"Mr. Guoba" touched his abdomen, mumbling, "When I came out, I felt both exhausted and pained; the incident rattled me so much I forgot everything else. Only now that you mentioned it did I remember. Yet now that you bring it up, I seem to feel, a bit of sensation..."
Bai Xiaosheng was amused and slightly irritated, thinking it could be forgotten out of fright.
"Then hold it in," he said.
While speaking, the two exited the building’s hall, following the signs directly towards the parking lot.
Although they could have called to have the car brought over, Bai Xiaosheng didn’t do so, and "Mr. Guoba" seemed disinclined as well.
Once there was no one around, "Mr. Guoba" leaned in and started bombarding Bai Xiaosheng with questions.
"By the way, aren’t you named Bai? Why tell Mr. Zate you’re called ’Lin’? What’s the reasoning behind that?"
"Did my uncle really plan today’s arrangement long ago, is that why you came?"
"Are you really just my uncle’s friend, that simple?"
...
This guy was truly curious, with questions coming nonstop.
"If you have doubts, why not ask your uncle?" Bai Xiaosheng summed it up in one sentence, then earnestly asked, "Do you think knowing so much will make you happy?"
"Mr. Guoba" paused slightly, blinking and thinking seriously before answering thoughtfully, "Indeed, knowing... seems to have no real benefit for me."
Bai Xiaosheng, not waiting for him, had already walked away by himself.
"Mr. Guoba" came to his senses, quickening his step to catch up, suddenly enlightened, "I think you’re right; those things have nothing to do with me."
Bai Xiaosheng smiled in silence.
This chubby guy was actually quite smart.
Finally, the two found "Mr. Guoba’s" business car and left together.
For the subsequent accommodation and meal arrangements, Bai Xiaosheng left it to "Mr. Guoba," who had a villa available in the area.
In the car, Bai Xiaosheng closed his eyes, reflecting on everything that had happened in his mind.
At the time in the Lan GO Company’s meeting room, he used his connections, including Auston, Lin Weiwei, Lei Ying...
