Chi Yue and Dai Qiu both showed expressions of shock.
Before they could figure out what was happening, they saw the old man take out a sample. "Have this tested, and when the results are out, contact ," he said.
As he spoke, he placed his business card on top of it.
Chi Yue glanced at the business card and was utterly astonished.
It was the Qi Family in Beijing!
She composed herself and declined, "I’m sorry, sir, but we are not currently accepting such tests. If possible, I suggest you contact the person in question and seek their consent before we can proceed."
The old man did not seem surprised by her words. "Is one million enough?"
Dai Qiu took a sharp intake of breath, standing next to Chi Yue, not daring to say a word.
Chi Yue remained relatively calm. "Sorry, this involves legal issues, and we can’t accept it."
The old man’s eyes glinted shrewdly. "Na your price, then."
"It’s not about the money, it’s about our principles. We can’t break our own rules for money; it’s also the ethos of our studio."
The old man looked at her for a while before standing up, "Don’t refuse just yet, think it over, I’ll co back in a few days."
After sending the man away, Dai Qiu pushed Chi Yue into the office.
"Mr. Chi, why didn’t you na a price just now? That was a million dollars, and he even let you set your own price."
Chi Yue’s face was composed, "I know what you’re thinking, but I’m not doing this because I need money. I simply want to do sothing aningful."
Dai Qiu knew she wasn’t short of money, so she asked again, "Aren’t you at all curious about the relationship between Fu Rongyin and him?"
Chi Yue shook her head, "If people want to find out about my relationship with Fu Rongyin, they only need to ask around, so this could be soone else’s attempt to test ."
Her current relationship with Fu Rongyin was very sensitive, and the slightest carelessness might give opportunists an opening.
Dai Qiu was sowhat perplexed but seeing her insistence, she did not speak further.
When Chi Yue was leaving work in the evening, she was intercepted by Fan Xuesong. Considering the relationship between Xi Yihang and Nan Bingyu, Chi Yue decided to see what she intended to do.
In the spacious tea room, the two sat opposite each other.
Fan Xuesong got straight to the point, "You know about Lu Nanxi’s situation, right? I was wrong before, and it’s reasonable for you to bla , but I hope you don’t hate . After all, we are mother and son by blood, and even if he doesn’t acknowledge in his life, I’m still your mother-in-law."
Chi Yue chuckled lightly, "How could I acknowledge a mother-in-law whom my husband doesn’t recognize?"
Fan Xuesong unexpectedly kept her temper in check, "I understand how you feel right now, and I don’t bla you. I asked you to co here today to offer an apology and also to make a suggestion."
Chi Yue waited calmly for what ca next.
"I know Ah Yin is devoted to you right now, and my offer of half the shares did not sway him, but Chi Yue, if your company added half of the Gu Family’s shares, you could do so much more. You’ve been in business, you know that this can only benefit you, and who knows, with his abilities, he might even rge both companies."
Chi Yue understood then.
So this was her true reason for trying to make ands today.
She feigned difficulty, "I can’t make this decision. You can talk to Fu Rongyin about it."
Of course, she knew that Fan Xuesong must have approached Fu Rongyin in advance, and having gotten nowhere with him, she turned her attention to Chi Yue.
What surprised her was that Fan Xuesong didn’t lose her temper, but instead said amiably, "Do you not trust ? I know I’ve done many unforgivable things in the past, and it’s hard for you to trust in a short ti. But Chi Yue, even with black and white contracts, I can’t do anything underhanded."
Chi Yue remained silent.
She caught a glimpse of Xi Yihang coming in from the outside, approaching them, and Chi Yue suddenly said, "You’re not only Furongyin’s mother."
