After Ange was invited inside, he straightforwardly said, “Lu, let’s work together.”

Lu Jingye did not answer Ange immediately.
Instead, he sat there and made tea.

Lu Jingye was alone in the living room right now.
Ever since they returned, Lu Jingye had forced Zi Yi into the bedroom to rest.

He was preparing a pot of fruit tea to send to the room.

Ange looked at the fruit floating in the teapot and wanted to say that he did not like drinking this type of tea.

Lu Jingye did not bother looking at him and continued preparing the tea.

Until he finished making the tea he didn’t speak again, finally he called out, “Little Loli.”

Little Loli came out from the corridor.
“Brother-in-law.”

Lu Jingye placed the teapot and teacup on the tea tray and said, “Send this up to Zi Yi, and tell her to stop playing on her phone and instead have a rest.

Little Loli carried the tea tray and went upstairs under Ange’s stare.

Lu Jingye poured a cup of boiling water that was leftover from making Zi Yi’s tea and his tone of voice sounded apologetic.
“Mr.
Ange, I don’t have coffee at my villa nor did I prepare any tea leaves.
Do you mind drinking water?”

Ange replied, “…I don’t mind.” What else could he possibly say?

Lu Jingye sat there with a straight posture and motioned to him with his eyes so that he could start talking.

Ange did not pick up the cup of boiling water and cut to the chase.
“Today, Long Aotian invited you and several other bosses over for dinner but only you came out.
Everyone clearly knows how they died.
Since Mr.
Lu has done so much, why don’t you work together with me?”

Lu Jingye asked instead of answering, “What does Mr.
Ange intend to work with me together on?”

“Mr.
Lu, you’re a smart man.
Several big bosses of the Bermuda Triangle died in the Tian Long Stockade and right now, the leaders of the stockades are absent.
It’s the best time for all forces to compete with each other.
I wish to take over all the stockades in the Bermuda Triangle.”

Lu Jingye looked at Ange.

Ange was mixed race, but his appearance was more similar to the westerners because his facial features were rather prominent.
In particular, those eyes of his were a mixture of purplish black.

His identity had always been a mystery no one knew about.
However, he was about to be successful in the Bermuda Triangle, where bosses dealt with illegal activities.
Not to mention, he even opened such a large clubhouse and this alone proves that he was not an average Joe.

It was normal for someone like this to be ambitious.

Lu Jingye made eye contact with Ange for a few seconds before he picked up the cup of boiled water in front of him.
He took a sip and asked, “Does Mr.
Ange think I still have the ability to work together with you?”

Ange smiled.
“The Lu Group’s President had never relied on his status as the Second Young Master Lu or the Lu Group behind him.
Instead of asking to work together with you, I’ll be frank.
What I’m looking for is you and your brother.
I hope that the three of us can work together.

“I need your brain and Lu Yunxiao’s power.”

Ange also raised his cup and took a sip of water.

After drinking, he acted as if he was currying a favor as he said, “The boiled water Second Young Master prepares is indeed sweeter than normal water.”

Lu Jingye looked at him with a calm gaze and restrained demeanor, and no one could discern what his thoughts were.

Ange put down the cup, crossed his legs, and added.
“I’ll manage this area and we’ll each get a share of the profit.
How does that sound?”

Lu Jingye rubbed his fingers against the side of the cup, while his eyes were still looking down and he did not express his position right away.

Ange continued to speak.
“If Second Young Master Lu is worried, I can mortgage my precious younger sister to you and let her follow you back to the capital.”

Lu Jingye finally looked up at him with slightly narrowed eyes.

Ange leaned slightly towards Lu Jingye and started reciting the good aspects of his sister.
“It’s not a loss for you at all.
She’s a divine doctor and is also a fortune teller.
Most importantly, she’s the adopted daughter of Country E’s Queen.”

Lu Jingye looked at him with a gaze as if he had never seen a brother who would sell out his sister like that.
“If Anya has such a noble status, there’s no need for you to work with me.”

“There is,” Ange suddenly said straightforwardly.
He did not feel the slightest guilt even after selling out his sister.
“Someone had made a fortune telling on Anya’s life when she was young.
She must get married into one of the eight aristocratic families of the capital before she turns twenty.
By mortgaging her with you, I’m also hoping that you can help her find a family to marry into.
After all..
You are the most familiar with the families there.”

Ange smiled.
“How is it? I’m sure it’s not a loss for you to work together with me?”

Lu Jingye nodded his head and his expression was still as calm as before, making it hard for anyone to discern his thoughts.
“It’s true that there won’t be any losses, but money does not drop from the skies for no reason.
Mr.
Ange, why don’t you tell me what you really want from this?”

Ange propped his head up with one of his hands and tapped his finger against his head as if he were thinking about what he really wanted.

Sometime later, he said, “I wish to work together with you on a project.”

Speaking of this, he stared at Lu Jingye closely.
“It can also be said that I wish to work together with your wife on a project.”

Lu Jingye looked at him with a cold glint in his eyes.

“Second Young Master Lu, don’t be in a rush to get angry.” Ange sensed the cold air Lu Jingye emitted and said, “I wish to work together with Mrs.
Lu in regards to racing car acceleration technology.”

Lu Jingye stared into Ange’s eyes, as if thinking about his intention for wanting to cooperate.

Ange shrugged and said with a smile, “I like racing very much and I’ve had this idea ever since I watched the clips of Mrs.
Lu’s racing competition.
Her skills in modifying racing cars are really unmatched.”

“Thank you.” Lu Jingye retracted his cold gaze and said, “I will talk to my wife about this.”

What he meant was that he would not make the decision on her behalf.

Ange did not have an opinion on that.
“Sure.”

He then stood up.
“In that case, I’ll wait for the good news.
I hope that Mrs.
Lu’s answer won’t disappoint me.”

During dinner, Lu Jingye told Zi Yi about what Ange came to talk to him about in the afternoon.

Zi Yi did not have much reaction to the cooperation and she only asked, “You’re not going to start a racing company?”

Lu Jingye picked up a dish for her and said, “If you wish to cooperate with him, I won’t open one.”

Zi Yi tilted her head and thought about it.
“If you open one less company, you’ll be less tired.
In that case, let’s cooperate with him.”

“Ok, I’ll discuss with him the specifics of cooperation then.”

In fact, Zi Yi was more concerned about something else.
“Ange really plans to mortgage his sister to us?”

Having said that, Zi Yi subconsciously looked at Lu Yunxiao who was sitting opposite her and eating quietly.

Lu Yunxiao only slightly looked up at her before he continued eating as if it had nothing to do with him.

Zi Yi said with a smile, “Why do I feel that these two siblings are trying to aim for our family?”

Lu Jingye also glanced at Lu Yunxiao and said, “Ange said, someone from the eight great aristocratic families.
If Yunxiao doesn’t like the other party, no one can force him.”

Zi Yi nodded her head.
“You’re right.
If cooperating with Ange is beneficial for you, go ahead and do so.”
