Chapter 129 Umbrella

Chapter 129 Umbrella (Additional update for the leader PureRedApple) (Fourth update)

Soon the dry ground was spread out as if by ink, and the glass of the surrounding buildings made pleasant sounds.

A hazy mist and rain was floating on the wide streets.

The pedestrians around were running towards the advertising platform in the distance in panic.

Su Ming didn't expect it to rain, so he quickly put the cigarette in his arms to avoid getting wet.

Cold raindrops kept falling, and Su Ming's hair was wet. Just as he was about to follow the pedestrians and run to the advertising platform in front, an umbrella suddenly stretched out from behind to block the falling rain.

Su Ming was slightly startled and turned his head to look over.

I saw a white-haired girl in a blue lace dress standing behind him holding an umbrella.

Su Ming was also stunned when he looked at the face of the girl in front of him.

The girl in front of him asked with a bit of uncertainty.

"Student Su Ming?"

"Lin Chuyu?"

Su Ming was startled and spoke in astonishment.

"It's really you. How did you become so thin? I didn't even dare to say hello to you on the train."

Lin Chuyu said with a sweet smile.

"Of course I exercised, but why did your hair turn white? I didn't recognize you."

Su Ming replied happily.

Lin Chuyu heard Su Ming's question and explained with a smile.

“Maybe it’s because of the high pressure.”

Su Ming naturally didn't believe the reason given by Lin Chuyu. How could her hair turn completely white just because of too much stress? It was obvious that there must be some hidden story.

But since Lin Chuyu didn't want to say it, Su Ming didn't have such low EQ that he kept asking questions. He just smiled and replied.

"I see."

"Su Ming, I have something to do right now. I need to rush to the Thunder Star Heavy Industry Group. I'll take you to a nearby shelter from the rain first."

After Lin Chuyu exchanged greetings, she said to Su Ming.

"What a coincidence? You are also going to Thunder Star Heavy Industry Group?"

Su Ming asked with a little surprise.

"Are you going too?"

Lin Chuyu was also a little surprised.

"Yes, I have to visit a friend, why don't we go together."

"Okay!"

"Then let's go. By the way, what are you doing at Thunder Star Heavy Industry Group?"

Su Ming and Lin Chuyu held an umbrella together and walked forward along the edge of the street.

"It's like this. I'm going to Thunder Interstellar Heavy Industry Group to order a third-generation mecha, the Wind Chaser."

"Customized third-generation mecha? Those mechas are very expensive, right?"

"Yes, but I met a classmate when I was in the special training class. He was an agent with a good reputation and was very knowledgeable about this area. Moreover, he was a relative of the executives of Thunder Star Heavy Industry Group. He said he could help me get a very low price and priority in the order."

Lin Chuyu said to Su Ming with a smile.

"How low?"

Su Ming asked curiously.

"We haven't discussed it yet. This time I'm going there to discuss it. However, my target price is 2.5 million federal coins. This is the limit I can afford."

Lin Chuyu trusted Su Ming very much and told him frankly.

"2.5 million? Where do you get so much money?"

Su Ming was even more surprised. This was not a small amount of money. Even if the old man paid for it, it would be very painful.

"Part of this money is my reward for entering the inner school, and part of it is funding from General Arms."

Lin Chuyu explained to Su Ming.

"Uh, you entered the inner school? No wonder I couldn't see you in the outer school."

Su Ming was surprised, then he reacted and said.

Lin Chuyu was also stunned and asked in disbelief.

"Student Su Ming, have you been admitted to the Imperial Court Academy?"

"Yes!"

"Do you have enough points on the comprehensive test?"

"218 points. I was lucky enough to get that score thanks to my residence permit in Starlight City." Su Ming explained to Lin Chuyu with a dumb smile.

"That's great. We'll be in the same school again. We can get together when we have time."

Lin Chuyu replied happily.

"We are from the same school, yes, but I cannot enter the inner school."

"It's okay, I can come out and find you. Which class are you in?"

"Mecha Squad 23."

Su Ming told Lin Chuyu with a smile.

Not long after, Su Ming and his companion walked to the outskirts of Thunder Interstellar Heavy Industries Group, talking and laughing.

The two looked up and saw a 100-meter-high, imposing skyscraper.

This skyscraper is the main building of Thunder Interstellar Heavy Industries Group. In addition, the group has also enclosed a piece of land as a surface parking lot.

At this time, at the gate of the group, there stood a young man wearing the Royal Court Academy uniform, with a mole on his face and looking very shrewd.

At this moment, the young man looked into the distance anxiously.

When he saw Lin Chuyu and Su Ming coming over, his brows furrowed for a moment, but he quickly returned to normal.

"Chu Yu, why are you so late?"

"Sorry, Wei Han, I was delayed by something."

Lin Chuyu replied apologetically.

"Okay, but who is this? Didn't I tell you not to bring strangers here?"

Wei Han looked at Su Ming very warily.

Su Ming looked at Wei Han and immediately felt that this guy seemed to be on guard against him.

"Let me introduce you to classmate Su Ming. We used to go to the same school together and he is also studying at Royal Court Academy now. He also came to Thunder Star Heavy Industry to look for someone. We met by chance."

Lin Chuyu gave a brief explanation.

"Okay, let's go! My uncle has been waiting for a long time."

Wei Han didn't know what to say, so he urged.

"Okay, thank you for leading the way."

Lin Chuyu nodded and replied.

Wei Han led the two of them through the gatekeeper unhindered and headed towards the main building of Thunder Interstellar Heavy Industry Group.

It wasn't long before they entered the main building and came to the lobby on the first floor.

The entire first floor lobby of the Thunder Group is decorated magnificently. The bricks on the floor are all striped with gold, and the overhead lights are all golden, giving people a very luxurious feeling.

Su Ming looked at the decoration style and shook his head slightly.

At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a black suit, with a big belly and a greasy look came over.

Wei Han quickly introduced him to Lin Chuyu.

"Chu Yu, this is my uncle Wei Cheng. He is the head of the sales department of Lei Ting Group."

"Hello."

After hearing this, Lin Chuyu hurriedly greeted him.

"You want to buy a third-generation mecha? Let me tell you, the third-generation mecha of the Thunder Group is a hot commodity! The orders are so numerous that they can't be kept up. Only because my nephew begged me so hard, I was willing to negotiate with you."

Wei Cheng said with his nose in the air.

"I understand."

Lin Chuyu replied politely.

"Okay, let's go to the meeting and discuss it."

Wei Cheng was about to take Lin Chuyu to the conference room for discussion.

Su Ming was also very interested when he heard this, so he followed.

But Wei Han reached out to stop him.

"what happened?"

Lin Chuyu looked at Wei Han in confusion.

Wei Han said very seriously.

"Chu Yu, what we are going to discuss next is a business secret and cannot be heard by outsiders, otherwise it will cause great trouble to my uncle."

As Wei Han spoke, he used his eyes to remind Wei Cheng to follow his words and keep Su Ming out.
