Chapter 87: Chapter 87 - The Big Boss Is Actually Beside Me

The chauffeur clearly did not believe it. No matter how hard low-class people like them worked, it was impossible for them to afford a toilet in Upper Forest Park, let alone a house.

“You mean… he started from scratch? In terms of age, he should be several times older than you, right? He can be your dad now. Could it be that you two are friends despite your age difference?”

Zhou Feng laughed as if he had heard a joke. “Uncle, you’re really interesting. This friend of mine looks like he just graduated from university. He’s very young.”

Lu Ming is forced to grow older…?Zhou Feng chuckled.

He does not even have a wife, but he now has a grownup son for no reason.

“Young man, are you lying to me? At such a young age, how could he live in Upper Forest Park without the support of his family?”

The driver began to suspect that Zhou Feng was joking.

“Uncle, I’m telling the truth. When I met him, his parents had died. He’s the boss of several big companies. He’s busy all day.”

Zhou Feng felt that based on what Lu Yaohua had done, he was not fit to be Lu Ming’s father. He might as well be dead. Therefore, he simply said that Lu Yaohua was no longer alive.

He paused for a moment before continuing. “I only found out a few days ago that he bought Upper Forest Park Sky-Level’s No. 1 Residence. It cost about a billion yuan.”

At that time, he was stunned. Although he knew that Lu Ming was rich, he did not expect him to be so rich. The people who owned homes in Upper Forest Park’s Sky-level zone were those who appeared on television or in financial newspapers. He did not expect his friend to be so capable that he bought a home there just like that!

A billion yuan!

It was enough for ordinary people like them to live for the rest of their lives!

Zhou Feng sighed inwardly.?If only I can find such a rich woman.

Compared to Lu Ming, the client just now was not good enough.

When the driver heard this, he said stiffly, “Are you joking with me? I thought that your friend bought an Earth-level home, but it turned out to be Sky-level?! And it’s No. 1 Residence? How is that possible?!”

He thought that he was lucky to have picked up a random customer who was a friend of the owner of the No. 1 Residence—someone that countless celebrities would like to meet.

Just being friends is enough!?thought the driver.

“No, it’s impossible, right? How could someone who could afford to buy No. 1 Residence be so young? And he has no background. Could he be from an elite family in Beijing?”

He seemed to be posing the question to Zhou Feng and also to himself.

Zhou Feng propped his chin and said, “I think he is a self-made man. It’s good enough if his father doesn’t cheat him, let alone help him. He probably can’t wait for my friend to disappear from this world.”

“… To be honest, I don’t believe you.”

One moment Zhou Feng was saying that his friend’s parents had passed on; the next moment he was talking about his father being alive. The driver was confused but out of curiosity, he asked, “You said that your friend has many businesses. Can you tell me the specifics?”

If he could not say the specifics or if he hesitated, what he said must have been fabricated.

So the driver stared intently at the rearview mirror, wanting to ascertain if this person was lying!

“Of course I can.”

Zhou Feng blurted out, “What’s so difficult about that?” He was telling the truth and had seen it with his own eyes. However, he could understand the driver’s shock and disbelief. After all, if someone had told him the same thing in the past, he would definitely think that the person was crazy.

He pointed to the most outlandish building on the left. “Any idea what that might be?” he asked.

“Who doesn’t know about This Place?”

The driver had been thinking of going there for rehabilitation if he became rich overnight. However, he could only dream about it because as an ordinary person, he could not afford to go there. “I heard that it has undergone structural reform. Why? Have you been there?”

Zhou Feng said confidently, “Not only have I been there, I’ve also been in the office.”

“What do you mean?”

For a moment, he couldn’t figure it out.

Not long after, the driver said in astonishment, “That friend of yours is the CEO of This Place Hospital?!”

“Of course. Not long ago, the hospital offered 8 million yuan to treat ordinary people for free. It was that friend of mine who gave the order. Initially, I wanted to interview him, but he turned down the invitation. He said that it was his duty and not worthy of praise.

Although he holds a high position, he could still empathize with the people at the bottom. How rare is this?”

Zhou Feng sounded proud.

The driver was deep in thought.

From what he said, it seemed like… everything he said was true.

It felt like he had really witnessed the entire incident. He shook his head, his curiosity completely aroused. He asked quickly, “Didn’t you say that he has other businesses? Could it be another hospital?”

“He’s involved in a lot of businesses and they’re all familiar names. You can make random guesses and chances are, you’ll hit upon the right answers.”

Zhou Feng did not want to disclose more. Since Lu Ming wanted to be mysterious, he naturally had to cooperate. What if it was really leaked? Fortunately, his identity in This Place Hospital was not disclosed. He had said it casually. The driver would never know who his friend was.

As soon as he finished speaking, they arrived at their destination.

The driver was a little regretful that there was not enough time. When Zhou Feng gave him the fare, he included some tips. He said, “Please keep what I said a secret. Just take it that I never showed up. Is that alright?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

“… Alright.”

The driver looked at the money and then at his departing figure.?Could he be telling the truth??he wondered.

He felt like he had unwittingly stumbled on a big secret.

However, since he had accepted the money, he had to shut up and try his best to forget about this matter.

…

Lu Ming had been waiting in the hall for a long time. He heard footsteps approaching. He smiled and said, “How is my place?”

“As expected of a house worth a billion yuan! How luxurious!”

Zhou Feng walked over and found a place to sit down. Just as he was about to take a sip of tea, he said in surprise, “This is Ming Dynasty porcelain?!”

“I don’t know much about this. I only know that it’s quite valuable.”

Lu Ming noticed the wound on Zhou Feng’s face and asked, “Your face… Was it scratched by a mistress?”

“No, that mistress doesn’t have any combat power at all!”

Zhou Feng carefully picked up the teacup, afraid that he would accidentally smash it. Then he said, “I don’t know why that man was so agitated when he saw me, but that was what I got from him. Fortunately, it wasn’t particularly deep. Otherwise, I won’t be able to rely on my face to make a living in the future!”

“That was really unlucky. I’ll get you some bandages later.”

Lu Ming said seriously, “Next, we will begin to discuss the details of this mission!”
