Chapter 252: Chapter 252: Ignore Him for a Few Days_1
Shen Yaxuan is a big shot in A City, who’s got the guts to hit him?
“Jingyan!” Shen Yaxuan revealed without hesitation.
Chen Momo was a bit shocked to hear this. “Why would Jingyan hit you? Aren’t you guys best friends?”
A bitter expression crept onto Shen Yaxuan’s face, his voice filled with despair, “From now on, we’re no longer brothers.”
“Ah?” Chen Momo’s full of confusion, “Why?”
Shen Yaxuan walked to the wine cabinet, opened a bottle, took a heavy drink before saying, “Because Jingyan discovered my betrayal.”
“Your visit from the villa to the old mansion to see Jingyan’s father raised his suspicion. He investigated and suspected it was . He confronted
a few days ago. I didn’t want to deceive my best friend, so I confessed. There’s a big break between us now.”
Chen Momo’s face turned pale then red.
“What…” She licked her lips, looking slightly uneasy, “Apart from that, Jingyan hasn’t figured out anything else, has he?”
For example, the person at the Imperial Hotel that night wasn’t her.
And the child in her belly wasn’t his.
“Not for the mont.” Shen Yaxuan poured himself another drink.
Chen Momo, worrying even more, asked, “What does ‘not for the mont’ an?”
Shen Yaxuan pondered for a while then told her, “The matter at the Imperial Hotel that night, he left to
to investigate. Now, knowing I’ve betrayed him, with his personality, he’ll definitely investigate everything thoroughly again.”
“So, what should we do?” Chen Momo bit her lip nervously, “Jingyan is currently only thinking about Xia Qingtian. I can’t let him know I’ve deceived him.”
“I’ve already made arrangents, but Jingyan’s not easy to deal with. He’s bound to find out about this eventually. I can only delay the inevitable.” Shen Yaxuan admitted candidly.
“So, I must seize Jingyan’s heart as soon as possible. Otherwise, once he finds out, everything will be too late.” Chen Momo quickly ca to a conclusion.
“Hmm!” Shen Yaxuan didn’t object.
Then, as if he rembered sothing, he asked, “By the way, did you co to see
for sothing?”
Chen Momo initially wanted him to deal with that damned gigolo, but since he’s now at odds with Jingyan,
If she continues having so many interactions and entanglents with Shen Yaxuan, let alone Jingyan suspecting her, she would certainly get so of his anger.
So, she has to maintain so distance from Shen Yaxuan.
With these thoughts, Chen Momo quickly made up her mind.
“Shen, now that Jingyan is suspicious of you, I think we should et and communicate less to avoid revealing more flaws. If he gets wind of our entire plan, then I’m finished.”
Shen Yaxuan was noncommittal, just asking, “What do you propose?”
Chen Momo’s eyes darted around as she plotted.
“How about you give
so contacts and teach
how to build my own power? So, if I encounter any ergencies in the future, I can deal with them myself. I won’t have to bother you with everything, and you won’t have to be so exhausted.”
After finishing, she asked with hopeful eyes, “Shen, what do you think of my proposal?”
Shen Yaxuan chuckled. The woman in front of him wasn’t very scheming – he could see through her intentions instantly.
However, he didn’t expose her, instead just agreed saying, “You have a point.”
If she didn’t have at least this level of cleverness, she would probably have been eliminated by Jingyan long ago.
As long as Chen Momo doesn’t cross the line by doing anything to harm Xia Qingtian, he doesn’t mind indulging her cunning tricks.
“That’s great.” Chen Momo was overjoyed at his non-rejection.
Once she has her own power and circle, she doesn’t have to rely on Shen Yaxuan for everything, kowtowing to his whims and restrictions.
Both of them had their own thoughts.
Shen Yaxuan gave Chen Momo a few useful contacts for her to command in future.
Then, he taught her how to build her own network.
Chen Momo listened attentively and felt enlightened after the session.
After she felt she had learned enough, she left and didn’t ntion Qian Wenbin’s matter.
Now that Shen Yaxuan had been targeted by Jingyan, she decided to handle the matter herself.
Just as she was racking her brain for a solution, she received a call from Qian Wenbin. Chen Momo felt irritated.
“50 million is not a small sum. You must give
ti to raise the money, right?” Her voice was filled with irritation and impatience.
Qian Wenbin retorted, “Who said I want 50 million?”
“What do you an?” Chen Momo was taken aback.
Could it be he decided to lower his demand because he realized how huge 50 million is?
She subconsciously felt it was unlikely. How could such a greedy person find the money to be excessive?
As expected, she guessed correctly.
She only heard Qian Wenbin shalessly say, “I changed my mind. I think 50 million won’t last long. I want 100 million!”
“100 million?” Chen Momo exclaid, her anger causing her hand holding the phone to tremble.
“Do you even know how much a hundred million is? You must be mad. If so, you better get treatnt early.”
With that, she hung up the call in anger, not even willing to continue the conversation.
Not to ntion that she couldn’t get a hundred million in a short ti, if she really managed to co up with the money yet didn’t acquire any assets, wouldn’t the sharp-witted Jingyan suspect her?
By then, if he did a search, he would eventually unearth Qian Wenbin, then everything would be over!
The more Chen Momo thought about it, the angrier she beca. To show her position and let that jerk know that she wasn’t easy to push around, she blocked his phone number.
She decided to ignore Qian Wenbin for a few days. When he started to fret, she would negotiate with him. This way, she’d have so leverage.
With that thought, Chen Momo put the matter at the back of her mind.
For the next two days, she started exploring what Shen Yaxuan taught her about building networks and influence, planning to try it out with a few people.
Just as she was about to leave the house, she heard the mansion’s landline ringing.
Jingyan’s father was conveniently reading a book on the couch. Hearing the phone ringing, he answered and then told the housekeeper, “Go call Momo down to pick up the phone.”
Chen Momo had heard his remark and didn’t wait for the housekeeper, she quickly ca downstairs.
“Grandpa, I’m here.” She reached Jingyan’s father’s side and casually asked, “Grandpa, who’s calling?”
“It’s a man, he didn’t say who he was, only that he couldn’t reach your phone, so he called the mansion.” Jingyan’s father handed the phone to her.
A man?
Chen Momo suddenly had a bad feeling.
