"You’ve posted so many videos, I’ve forgotten so as soon as I scroll past them," Yueqing began to speak with growing confidence. "Besides, every ti I see those videos, I want to send them to you. Doesn’t that just show how in sync we are as best friends?"
Lin Qiming gave a thumbs up: "You’ve really got a knack for this PUA stuff!"
"So, should I not send them anymore?"
"No way! You have to send them!" Lin Qiming huffed, looking like a little dog that had just been kicked, baring his teeth and grimacing, "My best friend has to be on the sa page with ."
"Alright, alright." Yueqing placated him, then handed her son the phone, "Baby, is there anything you want to say to your godmother?"
Yan Wang could see right through it—he knew his mother was trying to change the subject. So he said indifferently, "Godmother, take care of your health."
"Oh~ my sweet little Wangwang, you’re even sweeter than freshly squeezed sugarcane juice," Lin Qiming held his heart, "Once godmother is done with this busy week, I’ll co to City C and take you out for fun!"
"Okay, godmother."
Smitten by Wangwang’s sweetness, Lin Qiming finally rembered the reason for his call today: "Yue Bao, Yue Bao, I’ve heard from grandpa that you’re going to Old Kang’s auction tonight?"
Aside from addressing Old Master Yan as "grandpa" together with Yueqing, he referred to all other older individuals uniformly as "old man."
"Yeah," Yueqing nodded, "I’m going to see if there are any good finds, maybe bid on a few things for fun."
Lin Qiming said, "Yue Bao, aren’t you looking to buy a building? I’ve asked Old Kang about it, and he said there are five buildings for sale from the East Suburb area at the auction tonight."
"East Suburb?"
"Yes. Originally, those were Boss Cai’s projects, his family is in real estate. They poured a huge sum of money into this East Suburb project a couple of years ago, but then they ran out of funds, and now the buildings are almost turning into unfinished structures."
Unfinished structures? Yueqing frowned: "Why would I buy an unfinished building?"
"Well, you obviously wouldn’t buy just any unfinished building, but these were built by Old Cai," Lin Qiming said, sounding a bit rueful, "He’s known for his integrity in the industry. The design and the materials used on-site are all top-notch! The buildings his family has developed before, not one has had any quality issue even after ten years! This season’s East Suburb buildings are the culmination of his life’s work... It’s just unfortunate that he ran into trouble and was squeezed by several big capitals, causing the funds to dry up."
"Capital squeeze?" Yueqing understood, "So, they banded together to cut off Old Cai’s funding. Without new investnt, he’s bound to go bankrupt, and his buildings would be auctioned off. And if he gives up on the project and tries to liquidate it, they would surely drive the price way down?"
"You’re so smart, Yue Bao. I barely explained and you got it!" Lin Qiming praised, "But Old Cai has so tricks up his sleeve. He managed to get in touch with Old Kang to sell these buildings. The starting bid is said to be five billion, and I was thinking, an average family wouldn’t be able to finish the project; even if those capitals took over, they’d skimp on construction later on... If you’re thinking of buying a building, it’s better to go for this one instead of those with high risks!"
He analyzed, "Old Cai has laid a solid foundation, you buy it, and you can not only provide Old Cai with the funds he needs, but you can also continue to collaborate with him, turning the East Suburb project into a future base. Even if you don’t buy it, at least bump up the price to ss with those capitals! We can’t let them get their hands on it so easily!"
Yueqing said, "Alright, send the details of the property."
"OKK~" Lin Qiming said, "By the way, if you really intend to bid on the building, rember to bring a lawyer. It’s better to clarify the issues with the agreent and contract in person."
Yueqing nodded, "Sure, Lawyer Qian is also here, I’ll take him with tonight."
"Wait a second!" Lin Qiming suddenly widened his eyes, "Lawyer Qian? It’s not Qian Yezhou, is it?"
Qian Yezhou in the room heard this part, his eyebrows knitting together more and more.
Indeed, it was him...
"Damn!" Lin Qiming finally rembered what he’d forgotten last ti he was here!
He had seen online that Qian Yezhou had made a statent for Yueqing and specifically ca to City C to see them both.
The result?
The Lamborghini was so enchanting to the eyes!
He drove back happily, completely forgetting about Qian Yezhou!
Feeling extrely guilty, he cleared his throat lightly, "Uh, Yue Bao, he has so misunderstandings about ... He’s with you now... Please take good care of him for , and I’ll explain in person the next ti I co over."
Only then did Yan Yueqing rember—Qian Yezhou had ntioned it himself—that he had offended Lin Qiming and almost couldn’t make his way in the legal industry.
Just about to answer, a clear and firm voice rejected the offer, "No need for explanations."
Yan Yueqing looked up just in ti to see Qian Yezhou walking towards her with a stern face: "I apologize, Miss Yan, I didn’t an to eavesdrop, it’s just that Lin Qiming’s voice was a bit too loud."
Lin Qiming heard that familiar and yearning voice.
Damn it!
Still so charming.
A mont later, he gathered his thoughts, "Yue Bao, hand him the phone."
Yan Yueqing sensed there was a juicy situation and politely offered the phone: "Lawyer Qian, Qiming wants to have a word with you. There was so misunderstanding before, maybe—"
"There was no misunderstanding," Qian Yezhou refused coldly, but seeing the arm holding the phone frozen in mid-air, he still took it, "Young Master Lin, please stop harassing my forr clients. I have already collected quite a bit of evidence. This is the first warning I’m giving you. If Young Master Lin insists on continuing, then our next eting will be in court."
Lin Qiming suddenly laughed, "How can you be sure it’s people sent by ? Am I the only young master left in the Lin Family?"
Qian Yezhou replied, filled with anger, "I’m not interested in Young Master Lin’s family affairs! Originally, I rely declined the Lin Family’s invitation, and you resorted to such petty asures to tornt , which frankly is despicable! You treat as a plaything and wish to control , but Young Master Lin, even a rabbit will bite when cornered!"
The words were full of gunpowder.
They were all a candid expression of Qian Yezhou’s feelings.
Yan Yueqing did not expect such a juicy revelation: "Lawyer Qian, you might really have misunderstood sothing, Qiming, he—"
"Miss Yan, I’m very sorry, I didn’t know you were so close to Young Master Lin." Lawyer Qian’s eyelashes drooped, and a hint of turbulence flickered in his eyes, "I will devote myself fully to this defamation case, but after that, there’s no need to discuss any further collaboration."
Was she also being hated by association?
Actually, it wasn’t strange for Qian Yezhou to jump to conclusions; initially, he just didn’t want to join the Lin Family’s legal team and ended up being cornered by Lin Qiming to the extent that he couldn’t even stay in the capital!
Escaping to a small city to start his own law firm, he was still relentlessly pursued by the Lin Family, nearly forcing him out of the industry.
When Yan Yueqing extended a helping hand, Qian Yezhou was fairly happy, thinking he had finally made a breakthrough.
But to his surprise, the two of them knew each other all along!
And possibly, everything had been arranged by Lin Qiming...
However, upon hearing this, Yan Yueqing didn’t get angry but instead laughed, "Lawyer Qian, if you want to terminate our collaboration because of this incident, I must disagree."
