My minimum living allowance is credited to my account every day with 1000 million yuan

Huang Zhang and the others were puzzled as to why the usually composed President Lu suddenly transformed into a jet fighter.

But they dared not slack off. They ignored the shops on the second and third floors and went straight to the first floor, heading directly to the flagship store of Jiexun Sports AD.

Lu Tao was already complaining that the escalator was going too slowly. He walked down the escalator at a brisk pace and soon arrived on the first floor. From a distance, he saw Luffy standing at the shop entrance with someone who looked like an employee, pointing and talking about something.

Huang Zhang pointed over there: "President Lu, he's still here. Shall I call him over?"

"Let's go over there—." Lu Tao took three steps at a time and strode towards Lu Fei.

When Luffy was about 50 meters away, he turned his head and saw Lu Tao and the others walking quickly towards him.

He whispered to the person beside him, "Alright, you can go back to your work—"

Huang Zhang and the two vice presidents also noticed that Luffy had seen them, but what annoyed them was that when Luffy saw President Lu, he didn't run over like a lapdog to fawn over him as they had expected! Instead, he stood still, acting like a big shot.

This guy is way too arrogant. Since Huang Zhang joined Junxiao Business Management, he has never seen any other business owner who is as unmoved as Luffy when facing President Lu.

No, it's not just indifference, it's downright disregard—

A subject is disgraced when his lord is in distress; a subject dies when his lord is disgraced!
Several of them were already feeling that if you don't take my boss seriously, then you certainly don't take us seriously either.
While Luffy's previous behavior certainly showed he didn't take them seriously, now that a powerful backer has arrived, it's a bit hard to accept that he's still the same!
Next, the little old man Luffy that Huang Zhang had imagined running over excitedly did not appear.

On the contrary, Lu Tao's actions confused him even more. Lu Tao strode quickly towards Lu Fei, extending both hands and calling out loudly, "Mr. Lu, it's been such a long time since I've seen you—"

A simp—?
The word suddenly popped into Huang Zhang's mind.
The "Lu simp" I had imagined didn't appear. Instead, the usually arrogant Lu Tao became the "Lu simp"!
He exchanged glances with the two vice presidents, both seeing the horror in each other's eyes. It seemed Luffy's background was unfathomable, far more terrifying than they had previously imagined.

Lu Tao's politeness towards him clearly indicated that he knew his background.
They followed a few steps closer, and Luffy said somewhat arrogantly, "Old Luffy, I heard you were coming to inspect the store. But when you said you were coming at noon, I thought the timing was inconvenient."

Old Lu?

This is so pretentious! So many important people, who wouldn't call him President Lu? Even Chairman Xu Jun respectfully addresses him as President Lu.

They looked at Lu Tao, who, far from being displeased, was all smiles.

"Mr. Lu, it's been a long time since we last met in Ningxi. I've been quite busy with things in the region lately, otherwise I would definitely have arranged to meet you sometime to have a couple of drinks and catch up!"

Huang Zhang and his team were completely dumbfounded. They had never seen a client act so arrogantly in front of President Lu before. This was absolutely outrageous. It seemed that from now on, they would have to treat Jiexun Sports' projects with the highest level of care.

Luffy replied casually, "If there's a chance, there's a chance! Next time we go to Jiangzhou, I'll treat you."

Seeing Huang Zhang and the others standing to the side, Luffy smiled and nodded. "President Lu, President Huang, Qinzhou is a wonderful place, a land of outstanding people and beautiful scenery!"

Huang Zhang laughed heartily: "Then let President Lu stay in Qin Prefecture for a few more days so we can better extend our hospitality."

Mr. Liu smiled mysteriously: "Our area has beautiful mountains and rivers, and the people are beautiful too. I just met a few stunning beauties..."

Lu Tao raised an eyebrow but remained silent. He had heard before that this President Liu was somewhat "flirtatious," and seeing him today, it was indeed true. Making such jokes on their first meeting with Luffy?

However, Luffy obviously didn't care! He's been a pervert all along! He met Ma Jian in a fight at a karaoke bar, and they became friends after that fight.

"Haha, it turns out Mr. Liu is one of us."

Upon hearing this, Lu Tao laughed! He was no longer bothered by President Liu's rudeness earlier. It turns out that when dealing with someone like Luffy, talking about women is a way to appeal to his tastes!
Seizing the opportunity, President Liu immediately laughed and said, "If we run into those beauties again later, President Lu, we can ask them out. Hahaha! With President Lu's status, that would be an honor for them!"

Luffy knew he was being flattered; lately, many people had been doing it, so he was used to it. He immediately replied, "Great! I'm shameless when it comes to picking up girls!"

Huang Zhang and the others exchanged glances, having been polite to him before, only to be met with his indifference.

Now, whenever the topic turns to beautiful women, Mr. Lu's face lights up with a smile. Indeed, catering to someone's interests is the quickest way to bridge the gap between people.

Even Lu Tao was silent now, listening with a smile to the conversation between President Liu and Lu Fei, those two old lechers:
"Mr. Lu, among those beautiful women, two are well-known models."

A model? Luffy suddenly thought of Xiao Yuting. His heart skipped a beat, then he remembered that Xiao Yuting wasn't with President Chen this time!

He didn't care about the other models. He hadn't seen Chen Xiao for a while and didn't know that Xie Xiaoxiao and Qin Ning had been with Chen Xiao recently.

Yesterday, Xie Xiaoxiao and Qin Ning didn't go to Junxiao City, so Luffy didn't know.

At this moment, President Liu added, "Of the three, the most outstanding is another one. She has a pure and gentle appearance, an extraordinary temperament, and an air of scholarly refinement."

Upon hearing President Liu's description, Luffy sensed something was amiss, and alarm bells rang in his mind!

Mr. Liu continued, "By the way, the most amazing thing is that the beautiful woman looks exactly like the wife of a business tycoon. Hehe!"

Holy crap, Luffy's hair stood on end. Could it be...? Just as he was about to ask who he resembled?
President Liu looked up and glanced in the direction behind Luffy, his eyes lighting up: "Speak of the devil, and he appears! Look, they're here! What a coincidence! President Luffy, let's go flirt with them!"

Just as Luffy was about to turn his head, Lu Tao, who was standing diagonally opposite him, looked in the direction that President Liu was pointing and was immediately horrified.

He reached out and slapped President Liu on the back of the head: "Shut the hell up!" President Liu was immediately knocked unconscious, while President Huang and the investment manager were completely dumbfounded. What was going on?
Luffy turned around and saw several beautiful women walking towards them in the distance. Almost simultaneously, he and Lu Tao jogged forward to greet them. To General Manager Huang and the others, the scene was exactly the same as when a building manager would anxiously greet them during their store inspections!
what's the situation?
Mr. Liu was completely bewildered. He looked at Huang Zhang and said, "So, Mr. Lu is one of us."

Clearly, he assumed Lu Tao and Luffy were vying to strike up a conversation. This was completely different from the Lu Tao he knew before; the way they were jogging around was simply "eye-watering."

Huang Zhang and his companions were initially confused about the situation. They couldn't possibly think of it in terms of social status or position.

Those young beauties, while not lacking in social standing, are no match for President Lu. This was their assessment from the perspective of the two models.

Because they guessed that Lu Tao and Luffy had gone over to chat, the group was unsure whether they should go up to them.

Mr. Liu, on the other hand, was eager to try: "Let's go, let's go!" He didn't expect to find common ground with the two big shots in this regard.

At his urging, the group followed. When they were about ten meters apart, Lu Tao and Lu Fei arrived beside the beautiful women. They both greeted them respectfully at the same time, "Hello, President Zhang!"

what's the situation?
Just as President Liu was about to approach her to strike up a conversation, he suddenly slammed on the brakes.
Mr. Zhang? It seems we know each other?

Why do President Lu and Luffy both look so afraid of her?
How could he not be afraid? Lu Tao rarely had the chance to see Zhang Ziqian. Sometimes when he was in a meeting with Chairman Xu Jun, Xu Jun would receive a message from Zhang Ziqian needing some data, and he would treat it like an imperial edict.

In the eyes of these bigwigs, Zhang Ziqian is probably the second most important female lead in Junxiao Group, after Xu Wu.

Zhang Ziqian smiled and nodded at the two of them. Then she said to Luffy, "Is the flagship store almost finished with renovations?"

The reason she came first was because Chen Xiao, after watching the opening of [Xingque], planned to come here to check out several brands of Jiexun Sports and Yinuo Group, and also to take a look at Junxiao Commercial Management's project in Qinzhou.

He didn't know Lu Tao was coming, nor did he inform him.
Even if they knew Lu Tao was coming, they probably wouldn't have informed him. Although Lu Tao holds a high position, there are still many levels between him and Chen Xiao; they usually don't even have a chance to talk.

The last time Lu Tao saw Chen Xiao was when Lu Tao was still the regional manager of Wansheng Group. He ran into Chen Xiao, who was with Zhao Hui at the time, on a project in Ningxi. At that time, Lu Tao thought Chen Xiao was a client or friend of Zhao Hui and didn't take it seriously at all.

Later, Lu Tao continued to pay attention to the internet, during which time there was a fan war between Junxing Auto and Ruishi Auto. For a while, a lighthearted drama called "He Who Came From the Sun" circulated on the forum.

Many people said that the extra was President Chen. Lu Tao looked closely for a long time and was shocked. He never expected that the young man who looked like a brother with Zhao Hui was actually President Chen, who was in charge of a trillion-dollar asset empire!
It was then that he realized how unfathomable Zhao Hui's background was. This reminded him of the female lead Chen Xiao valued most—Zhao Xiangjun.

Zhao Hui's identity was almost self-evident, and Lu Tao couldn't help but feel fortunate that he hadn't made things too awkward with Zhao Hui back then!

Thinking about all of this happened in the blink of an eye.
Zhang Ziqian greeted the two men and casually said, "President Lu, you go ahead with your work. I'd like to ask President Lu Fei to show me around some of Jiexun Sports' stores."

Lu Tao was startled. Even this person was personally paying attention to Luffy's Jiexun Sports. It seemed the rumors were true; Luffy had received the full support of President Chen.
Lu Tao was somewhat disappointed that Zhang Ziqian wouldn't let him accompany her. Who wouldn't want to further cultivate a relationship with such a key figure within the group?

Moreover, Lu Tao reasoned that since Zhang Ziqian had appeared, President Chen was probably also in Qinzhou. Because Zhang Ziqian was almost always by President Chen's side, the possibility that they weren't in the same city was less than one percent.

If I could accompany Zhang Ziqian on her store visit, I might have a chance to meet President Chen today. That would be a tremendous opportunity!
At this moment, Huang Zhang and his group approached. Lu Tao introduced them: "President Zhang, these are the general manager and two vice presidents of the Qinzhou region!"

Zhang Ziqian nodded to the group again: "Hello, thank you for your hard work!"

"You've worked hard?" This sounded like a polite remark from a high-ranking leader! To the group of men, it sounded strange, considering Zhang Ziqian was young and beautiful, looking no more than twenty years old. They were all middle-aged men.

Lu Tao then introduced Zhang Ziqian to the group: "This is the group's leader—President Zhang!"

Group leaders? The group exchanged glances; it turned out to be company leaders, and such young leaders at that.
However, what puzzled them was that Lu Tao was always neither servile nor arrogant when facing Chairman Xu Jun. Respect was due, but he was never as humble as he was now towards President Zhang.

They were confused. What's wrong with President Lu? So, he's afraid of female leaders? Not the chairman, but a female leader?

At this moment, Zhang Ziqian calmly said again, "Alright, Mr. Luffy, take me to the scene."

Luffy quickly complied, perfectly mimicking the obsequious manner that General Manager Huang had previously imagined. However, he wasn't facing General Manager Lu, but rather this young female leader!

Lu Tao led the group, watching Zhang Ziqian eagerly follow Luffy into the AD flagship store, which was still under renovation. He then breathed a sigh of relief: "Let's go, continue our store tour—"

After saying that, he headed towards the second floor, which he hadn't finished looking at earlier. Huang Zhang and the others who were accompanying him keenly noticed that although Lu Tao was patrolling the area, his attention was no longer on the stores. His gaze kept drifting towards the store that Luffy had just entered.

After inspecting the entire third floor, the group moved on to the next store according to their itinerary.

"Mr. Lu, shall we go to the second store next, or go to the cities below to check out the newly opened projects?"

Lu Tao hesitated for a moment, then subconsciously glanced down to the first floor. He then pointed to a water bar on the third floor: "Let's go sit over there for a while—"

Huang Zhang was taken aback. Really? Milk tea? That's something little girls like!
"Boss, I have some good tea in my office, want some?"

Lu Tao waved his hand: "No need, right there!!!"

Huang Zhang suddenly realized that from that location, the view towards Luffy's shop on the first floor was completely unobstructed and unobstructed!
He immediately understood that Lu Tao was still somewhat regretful that President Zhang hadn't allowed him to accompany him. So what was he waiting for? Did he still want to go to President Zhang and offer himself up?
After the group sat down, Huang Zhang asked General Manager Liu to order a few fruit drinks at the bar. He then asked in a low voice, "Boss, which area of ​​the group are you in charge of, General Manager Zhang?"

It wasn't that he was confused. As the regional general manager, he had personally inquired about all the top leaders of the commercial management company, especially the leaders of key departments. He had never heard of a female leader surnamed Zhang!
As Lu Tao accepted the fruit drink from President Liu, he solemnly said, "Which area will she be in charge of? She can oversee all matters. And when she speaks, it's as if the emperor himself is there!" (End of Chapter)
