Chapter 190: Chapter 190: Generous Reward
The Mu family were magnates, and it was not unreasonable for Ye Xian to ask for a hefty sum as a reward for saving their only precious daughter; they would have readily agreed.
But she refused.
Mu Xisong and Tang Nan were extrely surprised, just as they had not anticipated that an internet celebrity would risk her own safety to rescue Xiao Ya from the fierce jaws of a Tibetan Mastiff.
Although her bravery and indifference to wealth deeply moved them, their guilt and gratitude only intensified.
She could refuse, but they had to make so gesture.
After Ye Xian declined, she silently bit into a crab at roll, her gaze surreptitiously flitting to Bo Tingshen on the sofa.
...
In front of the boss, how could she show any sign of greed for money? She had to craft a good image for herself, act like soone who put others before herself and regarded money as re dirt, to highlight her own good virtues while earning the CEO face in front of his friends.
If the CEO was happy, perhaps he would reward her with so good opportunities. Long-term developnt was the true path; she knew the difference between a single satisfying al and a lifeti of satisfaction!
Mu Xisong pondered for a mont, as if he had made up his mind about sothing, and turned to Bo Tingshen, “Tingshen, since Ye Xian has declined our gratitude, we would like to present this gift to you instead.”
Ye Xian: “?” What gift?
Mu Xisong: “That plot of land in New City Developnt Zone, I’m willing to offer it to BHS at half price.”
At those words, Ye Xian almost spat out her milk tea.
Bo Tingshen looked up, his deep eyes also flashing with astonishnt.
That plot of land in Southern City Developnt Zone, that was worth billions, and even the CEO himself hadn’t managed to negotiate it, and now… Pang Kai was stunned. Ye Xian had inadvertently made a monuntal contribution to BHS!
Half-price for the land?
Was Mr. Mu talking about that plot in the center, the costly patch of 300,000 square ters?
Ahhh!
She never imagined their offer could be a number reaching the stars. Indeed, she, a poor person, could not understand the world of the wealthy.
Ye Xian felt imnse regret. If only she had accepted their offer, what was a al’s satisfaction compared to billions? She could have fed herself for the rest of her life, and then so.
And she had let the CEO snatch up a bargain.
Bo Tingshen: “Why?”
Ye Xian looked at him eagerly. Why was he even asking why at this point? He should just accept it quickly. What else could it be if not a mont of fervent rashness due to his deep love for his daughter?
Mu Xisong took Tang Nan’s hand, speaking with heavy emotion, “To tell you the truth, my wife and I have always been unwilling to let go of that piece of land in New City due to a deep-seated trauma.”
“Four years ago, Nan Nan and I were discussing business there and neglected our eldest daughter who was with us. A car accident cruelly took her from us. We sunk into depression for a long ti until we had Xiao Ya, feeling as if our daughter had co back to us.
We didn’t expect that today, tragedy almost struck again. We nearly lost our younger daughter as well, but thanks to Mr. Ye’s courage and kindness, we were able to save Xiao Ya’s life. We’re truly fortunate. If anything had happened to Xiao Ya, my wife and I wouldn’t have been able to go on. Now, I’ve decided to let go of this trauma and offer this land to you as a token of our gratitude. Please, you must accept it!”
So there was such a story behind it all…
Ye Xian silently sipped her milk tea, suddenly feeling quite sorry for Mr. and Mrs. Mu. Despite their imnse wealth, they had suffered the loss of a loved one, and today, had she and Pang Kai not passed by Xiao Feng Forest, Xiao Ya might have indeed followed in her sister’s footsteps.
