Chapter 65: Witnessing My Husband's True Strength
Chapter 65: Witnessing My Husband's True Strength
In the underground parking garage of Zhenlongtai, Luo Jiuyu only had the car he gave to Hua Meimei. His Cullinans were all kept in the company's underground parking garage.
To fit his status as the least favored child in the Luo family, he casually bought a car a few years ago for daily use, simply because he didn't want to flaunt his wealth.
This time, he drove her to his villa in the northern suburbs of Tiancheng.
She huddled in the passenger seat, not wanting to say a word. She wanted to see where he would take her.
"Why aren't you saying anything?" His tone carried a hint of pleasure.
He had already opened his heart to her, and his mood was surprisingly good; he was no longer as conflicted as before.
It's like someone who has been tied up for a long time, and one day the ropes are untied, giving them freedom to stretch and move around as they please.
It's as pleasant as it gets.
"What's there to say?" She was both hungry and tired.
"Just bear with it a little longer. I'll make it up to you when we get home." His voice was so gentle it was almost cloying.
She looked at him like a stranger; Luo Jiuyu was a multifaceted person today.
"What compensation will you give me?" she asked.
"Compensation in all aspects, from material to spiritual."
"I can't be bothered with you." She didn't want to pay attention to his nonsense anymore, so she took out her phone and idly browsed the news.
Today's trending topics are again related to Huanyu Group.
The first three are all examples.
However, it's no longer about it developing some kind of simulation robot or flying car.
Instead, it went public.
"The US company of Huanyu Group has gone public with a market value of 500 billion, and the market value of its Chinese headquarters is over 300 billion? My goodness, this company is worth so much."
I knew it was valuable, but I didn't know it was this valuable. The whole internet is buzzing about it!
Hua Meimei suddenly perked up. Her company was only a few kilometers away from such a prestigious company, and she actually felt a little proud.
News reports predict that the net profit of its domestic companies alone will be over 200 billion yuan in the new year, with unlimited growth potential in the future.
The news report also included a picture of the president of the Chinese headquarters giving a speech on stage.
Hua Meimei recognized him as Amo, "Amo is Mo Jia, no wonder he looked familiar when I first saw him..."
Suddenly, something popped into his head: the first time he saw Amo at Xinghai Square was when he was with Luo Jiuyu.
Amo looked a few years older than her and Luo Jiuyu, yet he called her sister-in-law. At the time, she found it strange.
"You and Amo are good friends. He's the president of Huanyu Group. You're not working for him, are you?" She suspected he was a vice president.
Otherwise, why would the principal be so respectful to him?
Luo Jiuyu smiled and said, "You really look down on your husband that much?"
She pursed her lips. "I was just teasing you about being a husband yesterday, and you're 'getting back' at me?"
"I am your husband."
"Nonsense, if you weren't my husband, I wouldn't be teasing you."
"Now that you've acknowledged me as your husband, keep your distance from Fei Chenfeng from now on."
“He’s my friend, my old classmate, and my neighbor. How can I keep my distance? Should I cut ties with him?” She was annoyed by his sudden controlling nature.
"Cutting off the friendship is definitely the safest option."
"Luo Jiuyu, how come I never noticed how petty you were before?"
"I hadn't noticed that before. I have to thank you for it."
They actually tried to pin the blame on her. Haha.
"I can't be bothered with you." She rolled her eyes and continued reading the news.
The news article then details the founding story of Huanyu Group, introduces Mo Jia, the president of the China division, and finally solemnly introduces the most important founder... named Luo Jiuyu.
"How come your name is on this news? Is it someone with the same name?" she asked casually.
Luo Jiuyu smiled lightly and did not answer her.
The more she looked, the more something seemed off.
The news report stated that Luo Jiuyu was born in Tiancheng, studied at the School of Computer Science of Tiancheng University for his undergraduate degree, and went to the United States for his master's degree.
He also claimed that he was the son of the Luo family, the richest family in Tiancheng.
"We're home. Get off the bus."
While Hua Meimei was staring at her phone in shock, he drove the car into the villa's courtyard.
He specially built a row of garages in the yard to store his car collection.
"Get off the bus. Aren't you hungry? Go eat."
She remained seated, and he opened the car door for her, gently urging her to get out.
She then came to her senses and looked up to find herself inside a large courtyard.
He led her out of the car and onto the main road in the middle of the yard. Then a security guard drove his car into a garage.
In addition, security guards came in a patrol car to pick them up and took them to a large villa a hundred meters away.
The courtyard was so big that she wondered if she had walked into an airport.
No kidding, she seemed to actually see a helipad in the yard.
However, it was dark, and with the light from the streetlights, she couldn't see clearly from a distance.
"Where is this place? It looks like there's a helipad, and the yard is so big!" She was a little scared, still recovering from the shock the news had brought her.
He held her hand tightly, smiling as he looked at her. "This is our home, our real home. Zhenlongtai is just a small place where we can conveniently live and work."
"Luo Jiuyu, are you really the chairman of Huanyu Group?" she asked in a trembling voice.
"Yes. Your husband is the chairman of Huanyu Group."
"Your entire company is worth nearly 900 billion?"
“It will be worth trillions next year,” he replied casually, as if it were not a difficult goal to achieve.
Who would believe that a company that has only been established for five years can have such a large market value?
Our business spans the globe. Orders are pouring in. Sales are growing at an astonishing rate.
Even the platform she works hard to sell goods via live streaming every day, LeBuy app, is a small subsidiary of his company, and LeBuy's net profit last year reached more than 30 billion yuan.
Even a Lemai is something she can only dream of.
She suddenly realized that she couldn't hold his hands; they were golden hands that could create immense wealth.
She quickly pulled her hand out of his.
Her mind was in complete disarray; she couldn't accept this fact.
"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?" He noticed that she didn't look well and leaned closer to her face to ask.
She looked up and stared at his handsome face. Being so good-looking was already enviable enough, but he was also so talented, having created a super company.
The little bit of inferiority that was already hidden deep in my heart swelled up in that instant like a crystal baby absorbing water.
"Are you starving?" he asked again, reassuring her, "We're here."
The car stopped in front of the villa's gate steps.
She looked up at the magnificent villa, its golden light dazzling her eyes.
Thinking of the Luo family's manor, which was already the best house she had ever seen, the one in front of her was even more beautiful and luxurious, and it also exuded a new sense of style.
He led her out of the car and into the villa.
A butler and a group of servants stood guard at the door, forming two lines to welcome them.
Hearing that he was bringing his wife back, the people in the villa had been talking about it since the afternoon, eagerly anticipating meeting the lady of the house.
Hua Meimei followed Luo Jiuyu inside, her legs feeling as heavy as lead. With each step, she felt dizzy.
The servants' faces beamed with joy as they called out in unison, "Good morning, sir! Good morning, madam! Welcome home, madam!"
Hua Meimei wanted to laugh but couldn't, and finally just let out a helpless "Thank you."
She was used to being Luo Jiuyu's fake wife, so being addressed as "wife" so formally was an honor she couldn't possibly bear.
The butler, Bai Ning, was a middle-aged man in his forties, dressed in a tuxedo and exuding elegance. Bai Ning stepped forward and spoke to them.
"Sir, Madam, dinner is ready."
Luo Jiuyu nodded and introduced her: "This is the housekeeper, Bai Ning. You can ask him for anything if you need anything while staying here."
