While Zi Yi and Dou Xiangling were making their way to the front yard, Dou Xiangling told her about the transfer of the property.
“The transfer of the property requires a few days to be finalized. I have only pa.s.sed your household registration book to them to make a copy and the remaining procedures will be left up to the person Mr. Chen had sent over to handle.”
Zi Yi nodded her head.
Dou Xiangling suddenly thought of how Zi Yi mentioned that Lu Jingye had suffered a loss and asked, “The information that Little Lu told Mr. Chen, about heading over to Country J to purchase land… it would allow Mr. Chen to earn quite a huge sum of profit, right?”
“That’s right.” Zi Yi nodded her head, but she did not really care. “In any case, Ah Jing won’t be going to Country J to develop the real estate industry and it’s considered pretty good to have gained a favor and obtained a free property.”
Dou Xiangling could not help but smile.
After the two of them arrived, everyone headed to the dining room to have dinner.
After dinner, everyone sat together and at the thought of how Patriarch Lu did not allow them to hold their wedding banquet in the Lu Family’s residence, everyone’s expression was not very good.
Dou Zerui was the first to speak up. “Does he honestly think we have no other locations to hold the wedding banquet? Even if we don’t hold it at the Lu’s, it’s the same thing if we hold it at our place.”
The students of the Dou Family were spread all around the world and with a single word from the Dou Family, there would be many who would rush over to attend the wedding.
Dou Zerui felt stifled deep down. If they do not make their cousin’s wedding grander, he would not be able to get rid of that feeling.
In fact, the other Dou Family members had the same thought.
Zi Yi said, “Ah Jing has a villa near the place I’m staying at and it’s currently under my name. We can hold the wedding there.”
“The leaders and higher-ups of M.Uni will be there and from the First Hospital, there are over twenty higher-ups and professors who will be attending. Coupled with your close friends and extended family members, I don’t think this place can accommodate so many people.”
Elder Dou’s influence was extremely widespread. If he really got everyone to attend the wedding, Zi Yi felt that even if she found a few more villas, they would not be able to accommodate so many people.
Dou Jingning thought for a moment. Lu Jingye had mentioned this issue to him earlier. “It’s fine to hold it at your villa too. During the banquet, we shall be responsible for welcoming the guests and it can still be considered as us holding the wedding banquet.”
The others thought for a moment and felt that this was a feasible idea and so, all of them agreed.
The Third Madam said with a smile, “It seems like Little Lu and Little Zi have already made plans.”
Zi Yi smiled and said, “Of course. A wedding is a huge event and Ah Jing would never let me suffer.”
The First Madam was relieved at that and she had also joined them in the conversation and said, “Then we’ll contact the chef and the manpower that is needed.”
Lu Jingye spoke up just then. “Let me do this instead.”
The First Madam thought about it and felt that Lu Jingye had a wide network and ended up agreeing.
Everyone continued to discuss the wedding arrangements for some time. Zi Yi still had to go home and make her robots and so, Lu Jingye and her left first.
On the way back, the manager robot of the bar reported to Zi Yi. “Master, a group of people have come to the bar and they insist on meeting you.”
Zi Yi asked, “Who are they?”
The manager robot replied, “A group of young masters and young ladies of high-society.”
Zi Yi coldly snorted. “I won’t meet them.”
Having said that, she turned off the communication device.
After the manager robot saw she had turned off the communication device, he said to the group of young masters and young ladies in a robotic tone, “My Master has said that she won’t be meeting you.”
“How dare Zi Yi not meet us?!” One of the women raised her voice out of discontentment and said, “Contact her again. Tell her that if she doesn’t meet us, we’ll make it so that her bar can no longer operate!”
The manager robot’s voice suddenly changed into a male, stern-sounding voice. “Attention. Attention. Someone is causing trouble in the bar. Security, get ready to throw all those causing trouble outside.”
Before the group of young masters and young ladies could react, several powerful-looking security robots surrounded them from all directions and they threw the whole group out.
It made them so angry that they nearly stomped their feet outside and shouted abuse loudly.
However, there were many people milling around on the street and they could not possibly embarra.s.s themselves by swearing in public. There was already a rather large crowd who were pointing fingers at them. In the end, they headed to the bar beside [Futuristic] and asked for a room as they started to
discuss.
“How dare that Zi Yi let her robot chase us out?! Just you wait, I’ll make it so that her bar can no longer operate!”
“There’s no one backing her right now and so why don’t we get people to disguise themselves as those sent from the higher-ups to come and close the bar?”
“That’s a good idea. I’ve already long wanted to make her bar close down. After all, now that Second Brother no longer has the ident.i.ty of the Lu Family’s Second Young Master, it’s impossible for him to know that we found people to disguise as those higher-ups.”
“Yes, we’ll do that!”
Zi Yi’s bar was too profitable and in the past, everyone dared not do anything to her with Lu Jingye supporting her from behind. However, right now, they felt that it was an opportune moment.
Zi Yi relied on the fact that she was about to get married and acted openly and aboveboard and did not attend lessons.
She stayed in the bas.e.m.e.nt for an entire day.
Lu Jingye came down to call for her when it was time to eat and only then did she leave the bas.e.m.e.nt.
The two of them were walking side by side in the courtyard, when Zi Yi took a look at the weather and found it to be hazy. “It seems like it’s going to snow tonight.”
Lu Jingye responded with a ‘yes’ and said, “Tl be going out tonight.”
Zi Yi tumed to look at him.
“Tll be going out under Yunxiao’s name. The task a.s.signed by my father must be completed.”
Zi Yi asked, “Where are you going?”
“To A City.”
A City was in fact, rather far from the capital. However, it was only a three hour long journey if one took a private plane.
“Tll try my best to rush back before tomorrow afternoon.”
Zi Yi thought about it for a moment and said, “Then bring the robots I made today along with you. It just so happens that I can test out their functions.”
“Okay.”
After they finished the meal, Lu Jingye returned to his villa, took his helicopter, and secretly left the capital, while Zi Yi directly made her way down to the bas.e.m.e.nt.
She stayed underground until the next morning.
By the time she came out from the bas.e.m.e.nt, what welcomed her was the ground covered in snow, the heavy snow that was still falling down, and the housekeeper’s anxious expression.
As soon as the housekeeper saw her coming out, he said with a helpless expression, “Miss Zi, Second Young Master Lu informed me to remind you to go to bed at 11:30 p.mat the very latest last night. I gave you a call but you didn’t answer.”
Zi Yi smiled at him. “It’s fine! Anyway, Ah Jing won’t be back in the morning, so you can just think of it that I slept in.”
The housekeeper gave her a wooden expression.
Zi Yi purposely pointed at the snow in the yard and said, “Please help me collect some snow later. I have a use for it.”
‘What else could the housekeeper say? He could only nod and said in response, “Miss Zi, breakfast has been prepared.”
“Oh, I just so happen to be somewhat hungry.” Zi Yi headed to the living room immediately.
The housekeeper looked at her back view and thought of how he was to explain to the Second Young Master later.
As soon as Zi Yi entered the living room, she received Zhou s.h.i.+yu’s phone call.
The tone of his voice did not sound good and if one listened closely, his voice clearly contained resentment. “I’ve never seen such an irresponsible boss like you. Do you even remember today is the day where I am taking part in the racing compet.i.tion?”
Zi Yi had really forgotten about this, but she was not guilty about it in the slightest. Instead, she asked, “I have confidence in you. Aren’t you confident in yourself?”
Zhou s.h.i.+yu took a deep breath and in the end, he snorted and said in a proud tone, “I will definitely take the champion place..”
