Chapter 665 Not Alone


    Luo Yuxiang was dumbfounded. This was indeed something they couldn''t understand. He even arranged for someone to follow Malu specifically to see where Malu would go after leaving school.


    But in the end, no matter how many followers were arranged, they would eventually be thrown away by Ma Lu. Someone even saw Principal Ma standing behind a tree, and no one came out after five minutes.


    The stalker felt something was wrong and went around to take a look, only to find that Malu had disappeared.


    When something like this happened in broad daylight, it was almost like a ghost.


    However, after more than a month, Ming Xia still found out a lot of things. At least he confirmed that none of the many forces in Xindu were related to Malu.


    Luo Yuxiang secretly speculated that Malu might have some connection with those Westerners, but he could not find any evidence.


    And even if the two are really related, celebrities are not afraid. The sphere of influence of those Westerners is mainly concentrated in the coastal area, and they hardly go deep into the inland. Their hands cannot reach Pingcheng.


    "Tch, Principal Ma is really as powerful and domineering as the rumors say, but after tonight, I''m curious whether you can still maintain this arrogant attitude."


    As Luo Yuxiang spoke, he took out his cigarette case, took a cigarette from it and put it in his mouth. He first said hello to Cao Youyi.


    "Teacher Cao, it is too unfair for an outstanding educational talent like you to stay in Houde. Xiayin happens to be short of a director of the Academic Affairs Office. I am just a temporary replacement. The person I really prefer for this position is you.


    "As long as you are willing to come, Xiayin will always open the door to welcome you."


    Cao Youyi shook her head, "Thank you Mr. Luo for your kindness, but I will not leave Houde."


    Luo Yuxiang didn''t mind. He turned to look at Lu Yingying and blew out a puff of cigarette at her. This action was somewhat frivolous.


    "Which family are you from? I feel like we have met somewhere?"


    "Oh, this is Lu Yingying, the daughter of President Lu of the Longchang Chamber of Commerce."


    The deputy editor-in-chief of Pingcheng Daily is also here tonight, but compared to the real big shots in the banquet hall, his status is a little less impressive, so he was placed near the door.


    After finally catching a chance to show off, he quickly introduced Luo Yuxiang after hearing this.


    "Longchang Chamber of Commerce? Oh, I remembered. Last March, the secretary-general''s youngest daughter held a coming-of-age ceremony. Did Reporter Lu also go..."


    Lu Yingying smiled sweetly, "I was abroad in March last year. Mr. Luo must have admitted the wrong person."


    Luo Yuxiang wanted to say a few more words, but he saw Ma Lu also taking out a cigarette from his arms. It was several times larger than the one in his hand. It was also mixed with gold foil at the end. It looked like a high-end product.


    This is a limited edition cigar sent by Hamand Cigarette Factory to celebrate the previous cooperation between the two parties.


    Compared with this cigar, the cigarette in Luo Yuxiang''s mouth suddenly didn''t smell good.


    And later he saw Lu Yingying personally cutting off the foot of Ma Lu''s cigar and lighting it.


    Malu took a sip, spit it on Luo Yuxiang''s face, and said impatiently, "Are you done with your nonsense? I was invited to the banquet by your father, not to listen to you recall your childhood."


    Luo Yuxiang was choked by the cigarette and was speechless, glaring at Ma Lu angrily, but at this time Luo Xiangshi''s voice came from the banquet hall.


    "Yuxiang, please invite Principal Ma and others to come in."


    Luo Yuxiang snorted coldly, and reluctantly stepped back and made a gesture of invitation.


    When Malu walked into the banquet hall, he threw away the half-finished cigarette in his hand as quickly as possible.


    Malu can be regarded as a famous figure in Pingcheng recently, but only a few people came into the banquet hall to greet him. Obviously tonight''s guests have already received some news in advance.


    Malu briefly exchanged greetings with several business partners, then saw a middle-aged man with half-white hair and elegant appearance walking toward him surrounded by a group of people.


    When Malu was looking at Luo Xiangshi, Luo Xiangshi was also looking at Malu.


    Although this was the first time the two met, they had actually interacted with each other many times before.


    The Mingxia Group has never taken advantage of Houde, but Luo Xiangshi has gained a lot. At least he is getting to know Ma Lu better and better.


    This young man is different from the principals of ordinary schools. His style is tough and domineering, and he is more like a warlord than a cultural person.


    Meeting the real owner today also deepened his impression.


    However, Luo Xiangshi has lived for half his life and has met many people. No matter what kind of opponent he has, he has a way to deal with it. With a calm expression on his face, he spoke again.


    "Xiao''er told me before that there was some misunderstanding between Principal Ma and us. I''m afraid I won''t be able to come tonight, but I know that a hero like Principal Ma will definitely come if he receives an invitation."


    "Boss Luo, thank you very much. I''m actually quite worried about you, Boss Luo, ambushing dozens of swordsmen in the banquet hall, waiting for me to come in and swarm them to kill me.

    "So I asked my students to come over in advance and wait at the Plum Blossom Theater opposite. Boss Luo won''t be angry."


    Malu and Luo Xiangshi said while shaking hands.


    "Principal Ma was joking."


    "I''m not joking." Ma Lu said sternly, "The Mingxia Group has come to harass my school again and again, and it is also inseparable from the death of Houde''s former principal Cao Jinhua. Naturally, I, the current principal, will also Be careful."


    None of the guests present expected that Ma Lu was so direct, taking the lead before even sitting down.


    Luo Xiangshi looked calm, "Principal Cao''s death is a loss for the entire educational community. I was heartbroken when I first heard the bad news, but he died in a disaster zone.


    "Principal Ma is also a talisman master. He should know the dangers of clearing the disaster zone. This is why people of my generation are respected by the world."


    "One code equals another," Ma Lu shook his head. "It is true that Talisman masters will encounter danger, but the death of Principal Cao is obviously unusual. He entered a disaster zone that was not suitable for him to clean up because he received wrong information. "


    "Jiulongyi''s information is not always accurate, and it is normal to have occasional errors. This only shows that Principal Cao is not very lucky."


    "Principal Cao''s luck is not up to you. I have asked my friends to investigate this matter. I believe there will be results soon. The ugly words are ahead. I, Ma, will definitely not let the murderer go. "


    The tit-for-tat confrontation between Malu and Luo Xiangshi made the surrounding guests feel a strong smell of gunpowder.


    And Cao Youyi clenched her fists in the dark.


    She didn''t mention the matter of revenge for Cao Jinhua to Malu, but it didn''t mean that she had forgotten this blood feud.


    It was just because she had always put the school first and knew that the Houde at that time was no match for Ming Xia. She did not want to make it difficult for Malu as the principal, nor did she want to put all the teachers and students in the school at risk.


    Cao Youyi even considered waiting for the school to get back on track before going south alone to seek revenge in Xindu.


    But now, she suddenly realized that she was not alone.
