Chapter 378: Richest Family
Chapter 378: Richest Family
Cleo continued, "Lyca once told me. If the one that you like doesn't like you, then just find someone else to like." She shrugged and started jogging so she could catch up to Rue and Lyca. "Hey! Wait for me!"
The twins stared at each other before shrugging. Then Chu Nan started asking questions about his brother's treatment. "I am surprised that the old man actually allowed you to come here."
"Why wouldn't he allow me to come here?"
"Isn't he afraid that someone would target you?" Chu Nan's eyebrow raised. Actually, he was really worried when he received the news of Chu Munan coming to see Lyca. Chu Munan is obviously weaker than Chu Nan, both in the physical and mental aspects. He was scared that Chu Munan wouldn't be able to adjust easily.
"I am around Lyca and a security company. Who would dare target me in a place like that? Plus, grandfather wanted me to observe and learn from them."
Chu Nan's face turned dark. "What would you want to learn from them?" Was he trying to learn how to kill? If he was, then being with Lyca is the best way to learn those stuff. However, Chu Munan is the next patriarch, his task is to manage the family business and not involve himself in dirty things.
"Everything. Grandfather gave me market research about Shen Security and the things that they are planning to create. It was awesome. I am planning to involve myself in this business."
"You just wanted to get close to Lyca." Chu Nan rolled his eyes. "This will be your room. It's complete, this is a mini-suite. There is a living room, a small kitchen, a balcony, and room. This is connected to my room so just holler if you need something."
"You know" Chu Munan sat on the couch and spread his arms. He smiled at his brother. "I never dared to like someone since I got sick." When he was diagnosed with Cancer, he stopped doing everything that he wanted to do. He stopped liking people and even stopped seeing his friends. Of course, this was partly because his grandfather had become overprotective of him.
Actually, his grandfather never approved of him going to Kong City with Chu Nan before. He was scared that someone would kidnap his grown-up grandson. However, Chu Munan threw a tantrum and forced his grandfather to agree.
At that time, he felt that there is something special about Kong City. It was just an intuition. And then he met Lyca. The woman was so different and unique. Liking her was actually really easy. It was easier than breathing.
"You heard Cleo she won't like you."
"Liking someone is a process. How would you know that she won't like me?"
"Clearly you are not as handsome as her husband." Chu Nan said, unimpressed. "You aren't some delicious food either. And clearly, you don't look like a bed."
"" Why does it seem that Chu Nan's words echoed the words that Rue told him? "I know how to cook."
"Stupid." Chu Nan said. He sat next to his brother. "How are you?"
"The treatment is successful. However, I still need them to check my body weekly in-case, the cancer cells will appear again." Chu Munan smiled. He never expected that one day, he would say something like this. He was actually a little hopeless before the treatment started. However, now it seems that he found some new sun in his dark dark world. "How about you tell me about this competition? I heard the armors were awesome? Even grandfather is ecstatic about this armor!"
"You have to see for yourself." Chu Nan said. He didn't miss the tinge of pride inside him. What was that? Clearly, he wasn't one of them, yet talking about their accomplishment made him proud?
He led his brother to his room. This time, he didn't lead him to Lyca and Shen Qui's living room as he knew it would only cause more problems. He turned his TV on. "They "
"They are sleeping?" Chu Munan frowned. "I thought there will be lots of fighting?"
"They are saving their energy." Chu Nan sighed. Then he started explaining the past events. He even included the poisoning and how Lyca solved it. He also included the fact that the Xu Family was now eyeing the armor.
"Tsk, now that I think about it Lyca is really smart." Chu Munan chuckled.
"Why is that?"
"She found a way not to deal with the investors. At first, I am a little confused about why would she want to work with us. She could work with other families and maybe even worked with international companies that focused on advanced weaponry. It was because she was too lazy with investors."
"Huh?" Chu Nan couldn't seem to understand his brother's words. Was it because he lacked some business genes inside him?
Chu Munan continued, "The Chu Family is considered the richest family In the country. Basically, our net worth is even bigger than the Xu Family. With us acting as Lyca and Shen Qui's backer, many people would hesitate to even set up a meeting to work with them. If they really wanted to work with Shen Security, they might even end up talking to the Chu Family first. Lyca just saved herself a lot of meetings and dinners from investors. Hah I am sure that grandfather is already having a headache right now. His secretary must be receiving a lot of calls from various companies because of the armor!"
Chu Nan turned silent. "Do you think that was her intention all along?"
"Of course!" Chu Munan said. Rue said that Lyca hated social interactions. Clearly, she worked with the Chu Family because she thought that the Chu Family is enough to intimidate a lot of investors. And she was right!
Not many people would approach the richest family in the country.
