Chapter 665 Not Alone

Luo Yuxiang was speechless. This was indeed something that they could not figure out. He even arranged for someone to follow Malu to see where he would go after leaving school.

But no matter how many followers were arranged, they would eventually be shaken off by Ma Lu. Someone even saw Principal Ma standing behind a tree and no one came out after five minutes.

The tracker felt something was not right, so he went around to take a look, only to find that the millipede was gone.

This kind of thing happening in broad daylight is like a ghost.

However, after more than a month, the famous hero still found out a lot of things. At least he confirmed that none of the many forces in Xindu had anything to do with millipedes.

Luo Yuxiang privately speculated that millipedes might have some connection with those Westerners, but he found no evidence.

Moreover, even if there is a famous hero involved between the two, there is nothing to be afraid of. The influence of those Westerners is mainly concentrated in the coastal areas, and they hardly go deep inland. Their hands cannot reach Pingcheng.

"Tsk, Principal Ma is really as majestic and domineering as the rumors say. But after tonight, I'm curious whether you can still maintain this arrogant attitude."

As Luo Yuxiang spoke, he took out a cigarette box, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. He first greeted Cao Youyi.

"Teacher Cao, it's a waste of talent for an excellent educator like you to stay in Houde. Xiayin just happens to be short of a director of the Academic Affairs Office. I'm just taking over temporarily. The person I really want for this position is you.

"As long as you are willing to come, Xiayin will always open its doors to welcome you."

Cao Youyi shook her head and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Mr. Luo, but I will not leave Houde."

Luo Yuxiang didn't mind. He turned to look at Lu Yingying and blew a puff of cigarette at her. This action was somewhat frivolous.

"Whose family are you from? I feel like we've met somewhere before."

"Oh, this is Lu Yingying, the daughter of President Lu of Longchang Chamber of Commerce."

The deputy editor-in-chief of Pingcheng Daily also came tonight, but compared with the real big shots in the banquet hall, his status was a little insignificant, so he was arranged to sit near the gate.

He finally got a chance to show off, and upon hearing the words, he hurriedly introduced Luo Yuxiang.

"Longchang Chamber of Commerce? Oh, I remember. The secretary-general's youngest daughter held her coming-of-age ceremony last March. Did reporter Lu also go there?"

Lu Yingying smiled sweetly, "I was still abroad last March. Mr. Luo must have recognized the wrong person."

Luo Yuxiang wanted to say a few more words, but he saw Malu also took out a cigarette from his arms. The cigarette was several times larger than the one in his hand, and there was gold foil at the end. It was obviously a high-end product.

This is a limited edition cigar given by the Hamand Cigarette Factory to celebrate the previous cooperation between the two parties.

Compared with this cigar, the cigarette in Luo Yuxiang's mouth suddenly lost its fragrance.

And later he saw Lu Yingying personally come over to cut off the foot of the cigar for Malu and light it.

Malu took a puff and spat on Luo Yuxiang's face, impatiently saying, "Have you finished your nonsense? I was invited to the banquet by your father, not to listen to your childhood memories."

Luo Yuxiang was choked by the cigarette and couldn't speak. He glared at Malu, but at this time, Luo Xiangshi's voice came from the banquet hall.

"Yuxiang, please ask Principal Ma and the others to come in."

Luo Yuxiang snorted coldly, took a step back reluctantly and made a gesture of invitation.

When Malu walked into the banquet hall, he threw away the half-smoked cigarette in his hand as quickly as possible.

Malu is a well-known figure in Pingcheng recently, but few people come to greet him in the banquet hall. Apparently, the guests tonight have received some news in advance.

Malu exchanged a few brief pleasantries with a few business partners, and then he saw a middle-aged man with half-gray hair and an elegant appearance walking towards him surrounded by a group of people.

While the millipede was looking at Luo Xiangshi, Luo Xiangshi was also observing the millipede.

Although this was the first time the two met, they had actually dealt with each other many times before.

The Mingxia Group has never gained any advantage over Houde, but Luo Xiangshi has also gained something. At least he has become more and more familiar with millipedes.

This young man is different from ordinary school principals. He has a tough, overbearing and arbitrary style. Rather than a cultured person, he is more like a warlord.

Meeting the real owner today also deepened his impression.

However, Luo Xiangshi had lived for half his life and had seen a lot of people. No matter what kind of opponent he was, he had a way to deal with him. He remained calm and spoke again.

"My son told me before that there was some misunderstanding between Principal Ma and us, and he might not come tonight. But I know that a hero like Principal Ma would definitely come if he received an invitation."

"Boss Luo, thank you for your compliment. I was actually quite worried that you might have ambushed dozens of swordsmen in the banquet hall and would rush over and kill me when I came in.

"So I asked my students to come here early and wait at the Plum Blossom Theater across the street. I don't think Boss Luo will be angry."

Malu and Luo Xiangshi said as they shook hands.

"Principal Ma is joking."

"I'm not joking." Ma Lu said seriously, "The Mingxia Group has come to harass my school again and again, and it is closely related to the death of Cao Jinhua, the former principal of Houde. Naturally, I, as the current principal, have to be careful."

None of the guests present expected Malu to be so direct. He started the attack before they even sat down.

Luo Xiangshi looked calm, "The death of Principal Cao is a loss to the entire education sector. I was also very sad when I first heard the bad news, but he died in the disaster zone.

"Principal Ma is also a talisman master. He should know the dangers of clearing the disaster zone. This is why people of my generation are respected by the world."

"One thing for another," Malu shook his head. "It's true that Master Fu would be in danger, but Principal Cao's death was obviously unusual. He entered a disaster zone that was not suitable for him to clean up because he received wrong information."

"The information from Kowloon Instrument is not always accurate. It is normal to have occasional errors. This only shows that Principal Cao is not very lucky."

"It is not up to you to decide whether Principal Cao is lucky or not. I have asked a friend to investigate this matter, and I believe there will be a result soon. Let me be frank, I, Ma, will definitely not let the murderer go."

The tit-for-tat confrontation between Malu and Luo Xiangshi made the guests around them feel a strong smell of gunpowder.

And Cao Youyi clenched her fists in the dark.

The fact that she didn't mention revenge for Cao Jinhua to Malu doesn't mean she has forgotten this blood feud.

It was just because she always put the school first, and she knew that Houde was no match for Mingxia at that time. She didn't want to make things difficult for Malu, the principal, nor did she want to put all the teachers and students in the school in danger.

Cao Youyi even considered going south alone to Xindu for revenge after the school got back on track.

But now, she suddenly realized that she was not alone.
