Chapter 8: Chapter 8 Picking Up Bargains
Han Min’s words startled Li Yuechan.
Thereafter, Li Yuechan said sowhat angrily, “Mom, I don’t want to hear words like that again.”
“Mom knows what I said might have been a bit this and that, but it was all for your sake. Do you really want to spend your whole life with Long Chen?”
Han Min spoke earnestly.
“I don’t know.”
Li Yuechan felt a headache coming on.
In fact, Li Yuechan didn’t dislike Long Chen, but she resented his lack of ambition and his diocrity, especially since he was never able to help her when she faced difficulties.
“Yuechan, is Long Chen back? Did he handle the matters today?”
Li Shiqi ca ho from work and casually tossed his bag onto the sofa, asking indifferently.
“He said he went and had already settled it, but I don’t think we can trust him,” Li Yuechan said with a bitter smile.
“Everyone knows we can’t trust him. Sister, I think that project is going to be tough to secure. Let
try,” said Li Yuexin, who was applying a facial mask and gently patting her face.
“Yuexin, what can you do?” Li Yuechan frowned.
“Just give
a try. My boyfriend works at Jiuyu Real Estate Company, he holds a high position and has business interactions with Wanxing Group. Maybe he can put in a good word for us,” Li Yuexin suggested.
Smack.
Li Shiqi slapped his knee, stood up excitedly, “Right, I forgot about that. Yuexin, quickly, give your boyfriend a call and ask for his help.”
“I want to call the Wang Family directly first and hint that my boyfriend is an executive at Jiuyu Real Estate, just to test the waters,” said Li Yuexin.
“Okay, I’ll give you Wang Wanli’s number, go ahead and call.”
Li Shiqi wasted no ti and imdiately handed the phone to Li Yuexin.
Li Yuexin dialed the number, and after a long ring, it was finally answered.
“Who is this?”
On the other end, Wang Wanli’s indifferent voice ca through.
“Hello Uncle Wang, I’m Li Yuexin, from the Li Family,” Li Yuexin said with a smile.
“Li Family?” Wang Wanli was initially taken aback but quickly ward up, “Oh, from the Li Family! Hello, hello.”
Wang Wanli’s change in tone made Li Yuexin pause, then she nervously whispered, “Uncle Wang, my boyfriend is a senior executive at Jiuyu Real Estate, his na is Ning Haoran. He often deals with your side, so I thought I should give you a call to get acquainted, I hope Uncle Wang doesn’t mind.”
“Yuexin, you’re too polite. You’re calling about the Wanxing Mall project we’re building in Seven Star City, aren’t you? Send soone over tomorrow to sign the contract, we’ll let the Li Family handle that project,” Wang Wanli said with a laugh.
Those few brief sentences left Li Yuechan and everyone else completely stunned.
None of them had expected Li Yuexin to secure the project from Wang Wanli so easily.
“Th-thank you, Uncle Wang,” Li Yuexin stamred.
“It’s nothing, I’m going to rest now, goodbye.”
Wang Wanli hung up the phone.
“Yuexin, well done! It seems your boyfriend really has significant influence. Just hearing his na got Wang Wanli to agree to hand over the project to the Li Family right away. Impressive! One of these days, you should invite him over for dinner, so we can all discuss your wedding,” Han Min was imnsely excited.
“Thanks, Mom. But really, my boyfriend is quite remarkable, I hadn’t expected it,” Li Yuexin’s cheeks flushed with excitent.
“Yuexin, since you secured this project, you’ll get a share of the profit. Just follow , and we’ll manage this project together,” Li Shiqi said, beaming.
“Dad, what about… about Sister?” Li Yuexin looked nervously at Li Yuechan, whose expression was less than pleased.
“She chose a useless boyfriend who couldn’t secure this project. Who else is there to bla? Yuechan, you really should reflect on this.”
Li Shiqi spoke to Li Yuechan with utmost seriousness.
Li Yuechan bowed her head, biting her lips lightly, without uttering a word.
Unbeknownst to them, all of this was overheard by Long Chen on the second floor.
“Thinking of signing a contract is not so easy.”
Long Chen sneered.
Two hours passed, Li Yuechan finished her al, went upstairs, and entered the bedroom.
Seeing Long Chen lying on the floor mat, Li Yuechan couldn’t hide her anger.
“Long Chen, get up; I have sothing to tell you. Didn’t you say you had settled it? Just now, Li Yuexin called Wang Wanli and ntioned her boyfriend’s na, and Wang Wanli agreed to sign the contract. What’s going on?” Li Yuechan glared at Long Chen.
Long Chen sat up, speaking seriously, “I know your family doesn’t think highly of , but it was indeed
who negotiated it. The call Li Yuexin made just happened to coincide. As soon as Wang Wanli heard it was soone from the Li Family, he didn’t even think before agreeing to sign the contract. She just picked up a bargain.”
“At this point, you’re still lying.” Li Yuechan’s eyes reddened with anger, “If you couldn’t handle it, you could have just been upfront with ; I wouldn’t bla you. But your lying really disappoints .”
“Yuechan, rest assured, Li Yuexin absolutely cannot sign that contract. In the whole world, only you can sign that contract, no one else; believe .”
While speaking, Long Chen swiftly sent a text to Wang Wanli.
“Spouting nonsense, I don’t want to deal with you, you jerk.”
Li Yuechan huffed into the bathroom to take a shower.
Long Chen lay on the bed, listening to the sound of water from the bathroom. His gaze involuntarily fell on the bathroom glass.
Following that, Long Chen’s sight penetrated the glass.
He saw Li Yuechan’s stunning figure, noticing her proud features…
Long Chen’s heart skipped a beat, and he quickly closed his eyes.
After awakening the Dragon Bloodline, he possessed many abilities he himself found hard to believe.
X-ray vision was among them!
At that mont, Long Chen didn’t want to use this ability to spy on his wife.
About twenty minutes later, Li Yuechan erged from the bathroom.
Her hair wet, wrapped in a towel, she exuded a strong, enthralling charm all over.
“My wife, you look so beautiful.”
Long Chen stood and moved towards Li Yuechan.
“What… what are you doing?” Li Yuechan was sowhat nervous.
“Let
help you dry your hair, okay?”
“Do you know how?”
“I think so.”
“Then go ahead.” Li Yuechan surprisingly did not refuse.
Long Chen picked up a hairdryer and began drying Li Yuechan’s hair.
“My wife, does your stomach still hurt?” Long Chen asked softly.
Listening to Long Chen’s gentle words, Li Yuechan felt her resentnt towards him dissipate quite a bit, “It hurts a little, but it’s bearable now.”
“I’ll give you a rub later.”
Li Yuechan frowned, “A rub will do? I suspect you just want to take advantage.”
“No, you’ll see.”
Long Chen quickly dried Li Yuechan’s hair, then asked her to lie down on the bed.
Li Yuechan looked skeptical but eventually lay down on the soft, large bed.
Long Chen took a deep breath, then extended his hand, placing it on Li Yuechan’s flat stomach.
Even through the towel, Long Chen couldn’t help but feel a thrill; this was his first ti touching Li Yuechan’s body.
