Looking at Chen Lu's delicate and bright face, Li Chuan smiled and said, "No rush, let's go somewhere first."
Saying this, he flagged down a car, took Chen Lu in it, and said to the driver, "To the Jingwu Association headquarters."
Chen Lu was shocked, her face filled with fear, "Li Chuan, what are you going there for?"
She was attending university in the provincial capital, so naturally knew of the Jingwu Association, words often on the lips of many boys.
One of the three major forces in Jianghu of the provincial capital.
She didn't understand why Li Chuan wanted to go there; in her knowledge, it's simply another world.
Li Chuan laughed and said, "Going to see a friend, it's nothing, don't worry. Just going for a sit, not for conflicts."
After hearing Li Chuan's words, Chen Lu was slightly relieved, but she didn't expect that having just chatted with two secretaries, Li Chuan was now going to the underworld?
This guy, so young, mixing in both black and white worlds?
Soon, the driver stopped with Li Chuan and Chen Lu in front of a tea house.
This was a very high-end tea house, operating on a membership system; non-members cannot enter.
A single membership card costs a hundred thousand.
And that's just the most basic membership card.
Rumor has it the most expensive card costs thirty million each!
Li Chuan took Chen Lu out of the car, then directly walked into the tea house.
"Hello, please show your membership card to enter the tea house!"
Two staff in black suits stopped Li Chuan and Chen Lu, their eyes carrying a touch of oddity and disdain.
Young couple dating, not accounting for the occasion, is this really a place for you?
The guests they received, which one wasn't arriving in luxury cars for tea? Rolls Royce, Bentley, Lamborghini?
This was the first time seeing someone arriving in a taxi!
Still too young to understand, treating a place where big shots gather as your dating spot?
But this chick is quite attractive.
Li Chuan didn't mind their gaze and said calmly, "Call your President Xu, tell him a friend from Jiangzhou City is visiting."
"What friend from Jiangzhou, little punk, not just anyone can cling to our President Xu, hurry up and get lost!" The expressions on the two black suits were full of disdain.
Li Chuan didn't pay attention to the two in black suits, he was too lazy to deal with these small fry now.
"I suggest you use the walkie-talkie in your hands to call your boss, or things will escalate, and you will be the first to suffer!"
Seeing Li Chuan's composed and calm demeanor, the two in black suits were uncertain.
Although Li Chuan was very young, the aura on him seemed even more impressive than their own boss.
Just like a young master from some super wealthy family!
They got scared.
"Alright, wait here, I'll go make a call." One of the black suits took out a walkie-talkie to report.
Soon, a middle-aged man in a suit quickly walked out from inside, hurried to Li Chuan: "Are you Mr. Li from Jiangzhou?"
Li Chuan: "Yes."
"Mr. Li, please come inside, our President Xu will be here in five minutes!"
The two black suits at the entrance: "..."
They never expected Li Chuan to be this impressive!
Looking at Li Chuan again, their eyes were filled with dread and seriousness.
What kind of person can make their boss say he would arrive within minutes?
President Xu Wenbin, as the head of Jingwu Association, is virtually an underground emperor, besides dealing with the major figures above, ordinary patriarchs or bosses barely catch his eye.
So, this young man in front must have an extraordinary identity!
"Li Chuan, you said you're meeting a friend here, is it Xu Wenbin?" As they walked into the tea house, Chen Lu couldn't help but ask quietly.
Li Chuan reached out to hold Chen Lu's slightly cold hand and smiled, "Actually, I don't know Xu Wenbin, haven't even seen what he looks like."
These words made several Jingwu Association members around feel their heads buzzing.
Without even meeting, he can make their boss rush over like this?
Just who is this person!
Soon, Li Chuan and Chen Lu were led into an ancient-style tea room, where two delicate tea artisans, dressed in cheongsam, were making tea for them.
Time ticked by.
As the five-minute mark approached, footsteps sounded outside the tea room.
Sweaty-headed Xu Wenbin strode in, saw Li Chuan, and smiled: "Mr. Li, your honored presence really surprises me! Sorry for the wait, don't blame me!"
"Previously heard Mr. Li is a rare prodigy, yet never had the chance to meet. Able to see your true face today is truly satisfying!"
Xu Wenbing greeted enthusiastically while extending his hand to shake Li Chuan's firmly.
Li Chuan smiled slightly: "Mr. Xu, we'll all be friends from now on, no need for so much formality."
Xu Wenbin smiled playfully: "Mr. Li, do you mean we can be friends?"
Xu Wenbin previously went to Jiangzhou City with the intent of market takeover.
After all, the place Jiangzhou City is extraordinary.
For Nine-Headed Mountain, he was even willing to abandon his base in the provincial capital!
That's why he values Li Chuan so much.
Li Chuan sat back in his seat, picked up a cup of tea, and sipped gently, "Provincial Jianghu, Wild Wolf Gang, Black Dragon Sect, and Jingwu Association."
"Wild Wolf Gang is now scattered, not worth considering."
"As for Black Dragon Sect, they're still scheming against my Jiangzhou City."
"However, the leader of Black Dragon Sect has already been crippled by me, and one purpose of my visit to the provincial capital is to completely eliminate Black Dragon Sect."
"President Xu, we can cooperate, swallow Black Dragon Association, and seize the opportunity to unify the provincial underground world."
"What Mr. Li said, I had indeed considered." Xu Wenbin looked at Li Chuan with some surprise, "However, Black Dragon Sect is not simple, even with Fang Daochang crippled, he's not dead, and even if he was, the forces behind Black Dragon Sect would immediately support a new leader. That force is too strong, we can't compete."
Actually, when Fang Daochang just fled Jiangzhou, Xu Wenbin thought about annexing Black Dragon Sect.
But then something happened that made him stop!
This event was the sudden deployment of numerous experts by the forces behind Black Dragon Sect!
Including the top expert of the Black List!
Even overseas assassins were involved!
Upon receiving this news, Xu Wenbin immediately backed down.
Li Chuan: "I'll help you handle Black Dragon Sect, then you manage the provincial capital market, as for profits, we'll split fifty-fifty."
Xu Wenbin felt somewhat disappointed, thinking Li Chuan's visit was to jointly develop Jiangzhou, but unexpectedly, he had targeted the provincial Jianghu?
This kid's appetite is huge!
Such a vast Jiangzhou can't satisfy him?
