Chapter 709: Warning
At this moment, Shen Xi was also perusing the documents of the Ninghai Project in her hands, for no other reason than that she had seen this project at Shen Corporation yesterday. Added to that, Guan Lei had sent a message in the morning, asking her to pay attention to the Ninghai Project and to be cautious of Gu Chen.
Shen Xi did not want to maliciously speculate about Gu Chen, but when it concerned both the Shen and Lu families, she had to be a little careful.
Shen Xi asked in puzzlement, "Mom, why have both the Shen and Lu families become involved in this Ninghai Project? It doesn’t seem to be our strong suit at Lu Financial Group, does it?"
Lu Shan glanced at the documents in Shen Xi’s hand and said, "Well, it’s not a particularly important project. We owed someone a favor before, so we participated symbolically to repay it. That’s why we’re involved."
Shen Xi pondered for a moment before asking, "Did the Shen family owe that person a favor too?"
"It’s probably not the case. The industries included in this project were originally an important development direction for Shen Corporation, so your father’s side has a significant stake in it," Lu Shan explained.
"Mom, I heard that besides the Shen and Lu families, there are also the Gu family and some small companies involved in this project, and most of those small companies have some kind of connection with the Gu family," Shen Xi said.
Lu Shan furrowed her brows slightly and asked, "Who did you hear that from?"
