Start inheriting a mercenary group

He held Lu Ting's hand, smiled and said, "Oh, it turns out to be Mr. Lu. I have admired your name for a long time, and I am glad to meet you today."

After exchanging pleasantries, the two began to talk about the current business situation. The middle-aged man agreed with Lu Ting's opinion and mentioned some investment projects he was paying attention to.

Lu Ting took the opportunity to introduce the business scope and strength of the Immortal Armed Mercenary Group, and expressed his willingness to cooperate with them.

After listening to Lu Ting's introduction, the middle-aged man's eyes flashed with interest. He expressed his willingness to consider the possibility of cooperation with the Immortal Armed Mercenary Group and agreed to discuss it in detail in the near future.

Next, Lu Ting successively talked with several business people.

He talked, laughed, and behaved well, and he quickly won the favor of these people. They have expressed their willingness to establish a cooperative relationship with the Immortal Armed Mercenary Group and jointly explore the commercial market.

During the conversation, Lu Ting also did not forget to pay attention to other developments in the scene. He noticed that several guests had been whispering, seeming to be discussing something important. With a thought in his mind, he decided to go and inquire about it.

When he approached the guests, he happened to hear one of them say: "I heard that a big project is about to be launched recently. I wonder if we have a chance to participate in it."

Lu Ting was delighted. This was the information he was interested in.

He smiled slightly and interjected: "Gentlemen, do you mind if I join your conversation? I just heard you talking about a big project. I wonder if you can talk about it in detail?"

When the guests saw it was Lu Ting, they all showed friendly smiles. One of them said: "Oh, it turns out to be Mr. Lu. Since you are interested, let's talk about it in detail. This project is..."

As the conversation progressed, Lu Ting gradually learned about the specifics of this project. He already had a plan in mind and decided to arrange for his subordinates to conduct in-depth research and analysis on this project immediately after returning.

In the reception hall, the lighting was soft and the atmosphere was warm. Lu Ting was wearing a crisp dark suit. His eyes scanned the field, looking for valuable conversation partners. He knew tonight was his chance to get business information.

A middle-aged man wearing a blue suit caught Lu Ting's attention. This man looked quite serious and was discussing something with several colleagues. Lu Ting smiled slightly and decided to go and investigate.

Lu Ting thanked him and sat down and began to listen to their discussion. It turned out that they were talking about a large infrastructure project that was about to be launched. This project involves many fields and involves huge investment, attracting the attention of many business circles.

Lu Ting's heart moved. This project was an excellent opportunity for him. He decided to dig deeper.

He interjected: "Guys, this project sounds very interesting. I wonder if you can tell me more about it?"

The man looked at Lu Ting and seemed hesitant.

But considering Lu Ting's status and influence in the business world, he thought it would be okay to share some information. So, he began to introduce the project in detail.

During the conversation, Lu Ting not only learned about the specific situation and investment details of the project, but also obtained some dynamic information about market trends and competitors. He was secretly pleased that this information was very valuable to him.

At this time, another woman in a red evening dress joined their discussion.

The lady seemed quite enthusiastic. She took the initiative to shake hands with Lu Ting and introduced herself: "Hello, Mr. Lu. I am the marketing manager of a large enterprise. I am very happy to meet you here."

Lu Ting smiled slightly and exchanged a few words with her. The lady continued: "I just heard you talking about that large infrastructure project. Our company is also very interested in this project. I wonder if Mr. Lu is interested in working together?"

Lu Ting was moved. Competitors for this project actually came to his door.

He thought about it and felt that this proposal was worth considering. But he did not express his position immediately, but said euphemistically: "Thank you very much for your proposal. However, I still need time to consider and evaluate it."

The lady was not disappointed after hearing Lu Ting's answer. She knew that Lu Ting was a cautious person and would not make decisions easily. She smiled and said, "No problem, we can wait for your news."

In this way, Lu Ting not only obtained some valuable business information while talking with other guests, but also encountered some unexpected opportunities and challenges.

He knew that this information was very important to him and would have a profound impact on his future business decisions.

In the following time, McCarron was like a cunning fox, constantly shuttled among the crowd, looking for opportunities to get close to Miss Joanna Lu. His eyes are sometimes cunning and sometimes gloomy, making it difficult to understand his true thoughts.

Whenever Miss Qiao Anlu turned around or wasn't paying attention, he would quietly approach and try to intervene in the conversation between her and Lu Ting.

However, Lu Ting is like a towering mountain, always standing beside Miss Qiao Anlu.

His eyes were firm and sharp, as if he could see through all conspiracies and tricks. Whenever McCarron tried to get close, he would quietly stand in front of Miss Joanne Lu, forcing her back with an indifferent look.

"Mr. McCarron, you seem to be very interested in me and my female companion?" Lu Ting finally couldn't help but speak, with a hint of displeasure in his voice.

Macallan blinked in surprise and said with a smile: "Oh, Mr. Lu Ting, you misunderstood. I just think Miss Qiao Anlu is very charming and want to know more about her."

Lu Ting glanced at him coldly, with a hint of warning in his tone: "I suggest you keep a certain distance. Miss Qiao Anlu is my female companion, and I don't want to see anything unpleasant happen."

A provocative smile appeared on McCarron's lips. He did not take Lu Ting's warning to heart.

In his opinion, Lu Ting was just the commander of a mercenary group and was not enough to compete with him. He continued to look for opportunities to sow discord.

However, Lu Ting is not that easy to deal with. He guarded Miss Qiao Anlu every step of the way. Whether dining, dancing or chatting, he always followed her closely.

His eyes were always following her every move, as if he was afraid that she would be hurt in the slightest.

McCarron couldn't help but feel a little annoyed when he saw this. He originally thought Lu Ting was just an ordinary mercenary leader, but he didn't expect him to be so difficult to deal with.

He began to change his strategy, no longer approaching Miss Qiao Anlu directly, but passing rumors and sowing discord through other people present.

"I heard that Mr. Lu Ting is just a small mercenary leader. I really don't know how he climbed to such a high position as Miss Qiao Anlu." Someone began to whisper. "Yeah, I've heard that too. It's said that the people under him are just a mob and have no fighting power at all." Another person agreed.

These words pierced Lu Ting's ears like needles, but he did not waver.

He knew that these were just Macallan's tricks to destroy his relationship with Miss Joanne Lu. He held Miss Joanlu's hand tightly and told her with firm eyes that he didn't care about these rumors.

Miss Qiao Anlu felt Lu Ting's firmness and warmth, and felt an inexplicable sense of security in her heart.

In order to completely dispel McCarron's idea, Lu Ting decided to take direct and decisive action. He knew that the battle with Macallan was not just a simple contest, but also related to the future of him and Miss Qiao Anlu.

Therefore, he must let McAllen understand that Miss Joanne Lu is not something he can get involved with.

Lu Ting looked around, looking for McCarron. Finally, in a corner, he saw Macallan tasting wine alone. His expression seemed leisurely, but the sinister look in his eyes revealed his true thoughts.

Lu Ting took firm steps and walked straight towards McAllen.

His figure looked tall and majestic under the light, and every step seemed to contain an invisible power.

People around him looked sideways, curiously guessing what was about to happen.

McCarron noticed Lu Ting's approach, he put down the wine glass in his hand, and a provocative smile appeared on his face. He knew that Lu Ting was finally going to have a showdown with him.

"McAllen, we need to talk." Lu Ting stood in front of McAllen, his voice low and powerful.

McCarron shrugged and pretended to be relaxed and said: "What are we talking about? About how you snatched Miss Qiao Anlu from me? Don't forget, she is a free person and has the right to choose her own partner."

Lu Ting frowned slightly. He didn't like McCarron's frivolous attitude. He took a deep breath, trying to stay calm, and then said.

"McAllen, you should know that Miss Joanne Lu is not an object, nor is she a bargaining chip for you to show off or compete for. She is a thoughtful and emotional person, and her choice should be respected."

"Oh? Respect?" McCarron sneered, "In this world of the jungle, how much is respect worth? Lu Ting, don't forget, you are just the commander of a mercenary group, and you have nothing to do with me. Difference. Why do you think you are worthy of Miss Qiao Anlu? "

Lu Ting's eyes suddenly became sharp. He stared into McCarron's eyes and spoke word by word.

"McAllen, you are wrong. The difference between you and me is that I know how to respect others and respect myself. I know my identity and status, but I know the value of Miss Joanlu even more. She is not someone who can use money or money. A woman measured by power, she is a unique being.”

McCarron was so shocked by Lu Ting's words that he was speechless for a moment.

He never thought that Lu Ting would have such deep feelings and high regard for Miss Qiao Anlu. This made him start to doubt his original intentions and motives.

Lu Ting saw that McAllen was silent and continued: "McAllen, I know you are interested in Miss Qiao Anlu, but you should understand that she is not my accessory, nor is it your trophy. She is an independent individual. , she has the right to choose her own lifestyle and partner. If you really like her, you should respect her choice instead of pestering and provoking her."

After hearing Lu Ting's words, McCarron's anger gradually calmed down.

He began to realize that his previous behavior was indeed a bit excessive and childish. He looked up at Lu Ting, with a hint of complicated emotions in his eyes.

"Lu Ting, I admit that my previous behavior was a bit extreme and inappropriate. But I also really like Miss Qiao Anlu, and I don't want to give up on her." McCarron said.

Lu Ting looked at McCarron and took a deep breath. He knew that it would not be easy to make McCarron give up completely, but he had to make him understand a truth.

"McAllen, you should know that relationships are not a game or a battle. It requires sincerity, respect and understanding. If you really like Miss Joanne Lu, you should use your heart to feel her thoughts and feelings. "

"Instead of using your power and status to oppress her or change her. You should give her the right to choose freely instead of blindly entangled and forced."

Facing Lu Ting's warning, McCarron's face instantly turned ugly. His eyes flashed with anger and unwillingness, as if they were about to devour Lu Ting.

However, he also knew clearly that it would not be good for him to continue to be entangled. After all, Lu Ting is the commander of the Immortal Armed Mercenary Group, and his strength and influence are far beyond what he can match.

Lu Ting stood in front of McCarron, his eyes firm and calm. His figure looked particularly tall and mighty against the light, like an insurmountable mountain.

He took a deep breath and said slowly: "McAllen, I hope you can respect yourself. Miss Qiao Anlu is my woman, and I don't want to see you having any entanglement with her anymore."

McCarron clenched his fists, cracking his knuckles. He gritted his teeth and said, "Lu Ting, who do you think you are? You are just the commander of a mercenary group, why should you fight with me?"

Lu Ting smiled slightly and said: "McAllen, I'm not arguing with you. Miss Qiao Anlu is a thoughtful and emotional person, and she has her own choice. I just hope you can respect her choice and don't Cause her no more trouble."

McCarron froze. He didn't expect Lu Ting to respond to his provocation so calmly. He looked up at Lu Ting, and suddenly found a kind of confidence and calmness in the other person's eyes, as if everything was under his control.

As the charity event officially began, everyone's attention gradually shifted from the competition between Lu Ting and McCarron to the event itself.

The venue was elegantly and solemnly decorated. When the lanterns were turned on, the soft light shone on the carefully arranged exhibits, making each one look so dazzling.

The guests were dressed in costumes, and the sounds of conversation and music were intertwined, creating an atmosphere that was both solemn and relaxed.

However, despite the attraction of the event, the tension between Lu Ting and McCarron still surged like an undercurrent at the venue.

Their eyes met in the air from time to time, causing invisible sparks to collide. (End of chapter)
