Top-notch Urban Evil Cultivator
Chapter 129 Someone Intercepted
After a while, Lin Xuan opened his eyes and let out a long breath.
"Cool!"
"What are you doing? I just felt something enter your body."
"You can see that??"
Upon hearing this, Lin Xuan looked at An Lan with some surprise.
He had just used the "Luck Absorption Technique" to routinely absorb Xia Yu's luck.
But to his utter surprise, An Lan was able to sense it.
this...
"It's not that I saw anything, it's just that I had a feeling. Even though I can't see anything, I just... can't put my finger on it."
An Lan thought for a while, then shook her head.
She couldn't describe the magical feeling in words.
"So, what were you doing just now?"
Lin Xuan didn't hide anything: "This is a minor technique, the Luck Absorption Technique. Simply put, it's about absorbing other people's luck."
"what?"
An Lan had never heard of such a thing before and found it very novel.
She sat up straight, not even noticing that the blanket had slipped off her.
"It's true, I was smoking Xia Yu."
"Xia Yu? The one you said was the culprit who kidnapped Rou Rou?"
"Yes, it's him. I was injured before and couldn't beat him. Now I'm going to absorb his luck for a few days before I deal with him."
An Lan nodded without saying much, but she had made up her mind.
Dual cultivation is a must!
no...
I must become stronger.
We can't drag Lin Xuan down any further!
As the two were chatting, Lin Xuan's phone suddenly rang.
He picked it up and saw that it was Su Yurou.
Lin Xuan answered the phone:
"Manager Su, what's wrong? Why are you calling so early in the morning?"
Su Yurou's voice came from the other end of the phone, speaking quickly and urgently:
"Lin Xuan, are you up yet? There's been a problem with that project at Jiangzhou University! Last night, the school suddenly notified me that they're no longer cooperating, without even giving a reason! I have to go there now, do you want to come with me?"
Lin Xuan listened without hesitation:
"Okay, then wait for me. I'll come pick you up in a bit, and we'll go together."
The phone hangs up.
An Lan spoke, her voice regaining its usual coolness.
"Rou Rou? What happened?"
Lin Xuan got out of bed and started dressing as he spoke:
"It's nothing. Yu Rou just took on a job before, a renovation project for a teaching building at Jiangzhou University. She was sure she could get it, but then she suddenly said there was a problem. It's possible someone else snatched it away."
"Do you need me to come along?"
An Lan was about to get up when the blanket slipped off, revealing a beautiful view.
Lin Xuan stopped her, waving his hand:
"It's alright, it's not a big deal. The two of us are enough. You should focus on handling company matters. We can't both be absent."
"Besides, you've been working hard all night... get some rest!"
An Lan glared at him, her eyes full of warning.
But she didn't say much, just nodded: "Okay, call me if you need anything."
Lin Xuan smiled.
Communicating with General Manager An is highly efficient; there's no need for any unnecessary chatter.
Decisive and efficient, without any hesitation or fuss.
Soon, Lin Xuan drove to Su Yurou's house.
He knew the way well and went straight up.
As soon as he went upstairs, he saw that the door was open and Xue Hong and Su Changyuan were packing their things with large and small bags.
The ground was covered with cardboard boxes, more than a dozen of them, of various sizes, containing clothes, books, and daily necessities. They were piled up so full that there was almost no room to stand.
"Mom, please stop making a fuss!"
A helpless voice came from inside, sounding like she had been trying to persuade her for a long time.
"I'll find someone to pack and move later! You guys can rest! You're all so old, why are you still moving things!"
"It's alright, you and Xiaolin can go about your business, we can handle this..."
Xue Hong was speaking when she looked up and saw Lin Xuan walking over. She greeted him happily, her smile brighter than the sunshine.
"Hey! Kobayashi's here! Come quick, come quick!"
"Uncle and Aunt, what are you doing here?"
Lin Xuan looked at the cardboard boxes all over the floor, somewhat bewildered. This was as if they were going to empty the entire house.
"Hi!"
Xue Hong clapped her hands, her voice loud and clear.
"We've been here for so long, and we're getting ready to go home! There's still a lot to do at home. Before we go, let's help Rou Rou move in, so we won't have any worries! You young people are busy, and we can't help much, but we can still do this little thing!"
Lin Xuan then remembered that Su Yurou was going to move to Binjiang Huafu.
He quickly spoke up:
"Auntie, you don't need to bother with this. I'll find someone to come later! A professional moving company is fast and efficient. You don't need to lift a finger; you and Uncle can just relax."
"It's alright, it's alright!"
Xue Hong waved her hand, not giving him a chance to say anything more.
"Weren't you going to do your work? Hurry up! Rou Rou, come out quickly, Xiao Lin is here!"
A few minutes later, Lin Xuan and Su Yurou were pushed into the elevator by Xue Hong.
Xue Hong stood at the elevator entrance, waving with a smile:
"Work hard! Rou Rou, listen to Xiao Lin! Xiao Lin, I'm entrusting Rou Rou to you!"
"No problem, Auntie!"
The elevator doors closed and began to descend.
Inside the elevator, Su Yurou glared at Lin Xuan with unfriendly eyes, as if she wanted to devour him:
"It's all thanks to you! Now things are great, even if I don't move, my parents won't leave! Look at the way they're acting, they practically want me to move in today!"
Lin Xuan smiled, looking completely innocent:
"My fault? Who made me pretend to be your boyfriend in the first place? I'm not taking the blame for this."
"Never mind that!"
Su Yurou snorted.
After a while, her expression became serious:
"By the way, about the school stuff, I think someone's been stealing our work, but I don't know who it is!"
"Everything was going well before, and the contract was almost signed. Suddenly they changed their minds. There must be something wrong."
Lin Xuan nodded:
"It's alright, let's go take a look and see what it's like. Jiangzhou University... Come to think of it, I haven't been back since I graduated."
"You also graduated from Jiangzhou University?"
Su Yurou was somewhat surprised and looked him up and down with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.
Lin Xuan shrugged:
"What, it doesn't look like it?"
"It looks like it, how can it not?"
Su Yurou smiled, a smile with a hint of mischief in it.
"You're obviously the kind of academic failure who skips classes to play games and fails all their courses. Tell me, how many courses did you fail?"
Lin Xuan: ...
In the car, Su Yurou briefly explained the situation to Lin Xuan.
This project is overseen by the Vice President of Jiangzhou University.
The project involves renovating and rebuilding an old teaching building at Jiangzhou University. Although the work is small, the contract is only worth a few million.
However, if it goes well, there may be second and third phases of the project.
This may even include the construction of a new campus.
That's a huge order worth hundreds of millions.
But who knew that last night, Principal Liang suddenly informed us that he would no longer cooperate, without even giving a reason, and he stammered on the phone.
"Normal business competition is fine."
After Su Yurou finished speaking, she sighed and leaned back in her chair.
"What we fear most right now is that someone is deliberately targeting us. Our company has just been established. If we are targeted, it will be difficult in the future. If we don't make a good start, it will be even more difficult to do business later."
"You don't think it's Chen Mo, do you?"
