In fact, more than half of the elders in the Elders Council were already dissatisfied with Huo Jingfeng's decision because of this.
After all, everyone cared about benefits.
Huo Qing took a deep breath. How could he not be tempted now that the Earl's residence had brought a development contract with them?
If he could participate, his family's contribution points would increase by another level.
At this thought, Huo Qing's heart began to boil. However, he did not show it on his face and only asked about his doubts. "I don't understand why the Earl's residence wants to cooperate with me."
"Because you have the ability." Murray raised his brow. "I do have some unhappiness with your family head, but it doesn't affect my friendship with Mr. Huo Qing."
Huo Qing understood what Murray meant, but he knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch. "What's your condition?"
The premise of a friendly relationship was to get what they needed.
Murray smiled and did not beat around the bush. "It's my birthday party in two days. I hope you can bring someone over."
"Who?"
"Huo Yao."
Huo Qing was clearly surprised. "What do you want her for?"
"It's not that I want her." Murray put down his coffee cup and looked interested. "I'm curious about what's so special about this girl that the people from the first base are interested in her."
"The first base?" Huo Qing was stunned.
He did not know Lord Feng's niece in detail, so how could he know why the first base wanted her?
"It seems like you don't know either." Murray immediately got the answer from Huo Qing's reaction.
Huo Qing composed himself and said, "To be honest, our Eldest Miss has only been back for less than two days. She hasn't officially appeared in the family yet."
"I see... But what do you call her Eldest Miss?" Although Murray did not understand the rules of these aristocratic families, he could tell the other party's status from the way they addressed each other.
Huo Qing pursed his lips. "That's just an undeserved reputation."
Murray was relieved to hear this.
This girl had a close relationship with the person from the Weapons Bureau. If she had a high status in the Huo family, then he would have to reconsider his cooperation with Fan Shun.
"So, our cooperation is settled?" Murray pulled the topic back.
Huo Qing lowered his eyes to look at the cooperation contract in his hands. Huo Jingfeng was currently heavily injured and his life was uncertain. This was a rare opportunity for him. After thinking about it, he nodded and said, "Alright."
"Mr. Huo is indeed a straightforward person." Murray paused. To make sure nothing happened, he asked again, "Your Master Feng doesn't think much of this girl, does he?"
Huo Qing's lips twitched. "You don't have to worry about that. Even if he does, I'm afraid he doesn't have the energy to protect it."
Murray heard the hidden meaning in his words. "What do you mean?"
Huo Qing just shook his head and stood up. "I'll bring him to you the day after tomorrow."
After all, she was just a young lady who had not been acknowledged by everyone. She was not Master Feng's biological daughter. Even if Master Feng was still alive, he would not make Murray his enemy for a young lady.
Soon, Huo Qing and his trusted aide left the room.
"This Huo Qing can be of use to us." Murray's secretary slowly said.
"Yes." Murray stretched his neck and said, "It's the easiest to take the bait from someone who is disloyal."
"That's true." The secretary smiled.
