Chapter 61 A Class

Yao Fanghua couldn't help but ask curiously, "What do you do?"

"You wouldn't understand even if I told you." Only the wealthy could understand his predicament.

"How do you know I don't understand if you don't tell me?" What a joke, insulting her intelligence. Is he another misogynist? Yao Fanghua made no attempt to hide her disdain for the short man.

"What I'm saying is only understood by rich people."

"How do you know I'm not rich?" Yao Fanghua crossed her legs. She was dressed plainly, but that didn't stop her from exuding confidence.

Heh heh, what a show-off. How rich can someone who steals money from under their feet be? He likes this act. "It'll be alright to tell you. Do you know what a cordless phone is? Do you know what a mobile phone is?"

Yao Fanghua nodded, then shook her head, saying she could understand the literal meaning to some extent.

"It's the kind of phone call that you can make and receive calls without a wire."

Yao Fanghua nodded.

"It's good stuff, isn't it? It's a pity these rich people have no taste; no one is willing to invest their money."

Yao Fanghua: "How much do you need?"

Jiang Wei held up one finger. He didn't say it directly, he just held up one finger, and he knew it was intentional.

"Ten thousand?"

Yao Fanghua perked up a bit. "I'm sorry to say," she thought, "I really do have some; it's in the savings account under my feet." In this extravagant place, her confidence soared. "Ten thousand yuan a month is still a rare thing," she thought.

Jiang shook his head. A thought flashed through his mind: he'd misjudged her; this girl was worth ten thousand!

"One hundred thousand?" Yao Fanghua frowned. Who would be stupid enough to invest one hundred thousand in you?

Jiang continued to shake his head.

Yao Fanghua was puzzled. "Not yet? What's '100,000 and above' again? It can't be 1,000, right? If it's 1,000, she'll get really cocky and invest right now."

Jiang Wei casually uttered three words: "One million." That'll scare you to death, you country bumpkin. This time, Jiang Wei crossed his legs, leisurely watching the silly girl's bulging eyes and gaping mouth.

Yao Fanghua was dumbfounded. She wouldn't even dare to listen to what you said. You're a complete fraud, even more shady than this shop! You're utterly shady! Do you even know how to write a million? Can you even count the zeros at the end? Yet you dare to say that.

Yao Fanghua lowered her legs and sat up obediently. She decided to slowly drink her juice and listen to music, and not talk to the scammer.

Jiang teased the silly girl, saying, "I told you only rich people could understand that. Poor people would just think I'm a liar."

Oh dear, God is so unfair! How could He have been born looking like this? How come that silly girl over there is so beautiful? Her face is so expressive; the more you look at it, the more beautiful she becomes.

Yao Fanghua rolled her eyes at him and nodded. "I'm poor." What a liar. One million? That's an astronomical figure! She was definitely not poor.

"Hehe, we're the same, I'm poor too." Faced with a million dollars, whether you have ten dollars or ten thousand, you're both poor. "Since we're in the same class, how about you buy me a drink?"

Yao Fanghua was shocked; this person's skin was unusually thick!

Jiang Wei touched her stomach and looked at Yao Fanghua with a pleading expression. "I haven't had dinner yet. The landlord is urging me to pay the rent. Soon I might be homeless and begging for food. Please have pity on me."

Please, kind person.

Yao Fanghua: ...So shameless, does being ugly mean you don't have to care about your reputation?

Yao Fanghua picked up her juice, wanting to change seats.

Then she looked at Wang Huaizhi and Director Geng from afar.

Wang Huaizhi and Geng Youliang quickly withdrew their hands from their female companions' waists and shoulders as if they were burning their hands.

Wang Huaizhi and Geng Youliang both worked in purchasing and hit it off immediately, sharing similar interests and having many common topics. Even their shared love of nightclubs led them to visit each other.

Wang Huaizhi found out about the Grand World shopping mall and, wearing sunglasses, entered. He saw Geng Youliang sitting in a corner, drinking with a scantily clad girl in a short skirt. Their eyes met, and the awkwardness was brief; being men, they quickly sat down together, embracing the girl and drinking together.

But things were different when they faced Yao Fanghua. Their hearts were pounding, and then the next moment, they saw the man next to Yao Fanghua.

They can order men? Wow, Director Yao really impressed them! It's just that his taste isn't very good; the ones he ordered were rather ugly.

Yao Fanghua's gaze swept over the two women beside Wang Huaizhi and Geng Youliang, and then she saw that their eyes kept sweeping over Jiang Wei. She felt like she was about to choke on her own blood.

After exchanging glances, the three pretended not to know each other and looked away.

Yao Fanghua curled up back into her seat.

Jiang Wei: "You two know each other?"

"I don't recognize you!" Yao Fanghua was caught in the awkward situation of both of them having mistaken her for someone else. She should have put on makeup and changed her clothes before coming out; that way, even if they were face-to-face, she could still stubbornly say, "You've mistaken me for someone else." These are all life lessons; you learn from experience. Looking back after going through this, she realized how wise she was now, and how foolish she had been before.

“Men are normal,” Jiang Wei said dismissively. He brushed his sleeves. “Not everyone is as virtuous as me. I only come here for serious business, and I never ask for anything else.”

Seeing Yao Fanghua's pale face, she asked in surprise, "It's not your man, is it?"

Yao Fanghua glanced at him sideways: "My man doesn't come to places like this."

Jiang Wei let out a "ha".

Yao Fanghua stubbornly replied, "Even if I came, it definitely wouldn't be like that."

"laugh!"

Yao Fanghua remained silent. She recalled Wu Peng's past mention of investing in cordless phones.

“Come on, tell me what your man looks like. Let me see if I’ve ever seen him before. I’m a regular here. I remember how many grievances, men and women, come here every day. I…” Jiang Wei pointed to his head, “I remember them all.”

Heaven gave him a way out. Don't let his appearance fool you; he's smart. He's intelligent and talented.

Yao Fanghua was somewhat intrigued. "Do you have paper and a pen?"

Yes, there really is. Question: Who brings paper and pen to a place like this? Answer: He brings them.

Jiang Wei rummaged through his briefcase, which contained several detailed investment plans and a few scraps of paper. He pulled out a relatively intact scrap of paper.

Taking the paper and pen, Yao Fanghua bent down and began to draw on the table.

Jiang Wei's gaze flickered slightly, and his heart fluttered uncontrollably. Heaven is unfair; this person is both beautiful and talented.

Soon, Wu Peng's face appeared on the paper.

Is this... Mr. Wu?! What a coincidence, we do know each other, we really did meet at the Great World.

Have you seen it before?

"Cough, my throat is a little dry."

Yao Fanghua waved to call a waiter.

Jiang Wei didn't stand on ceremony and ordered a glass of foreign liquor.

Yao Fanghua: "Go ahead and speak."

When the imported liquor arrived, Jiang Wei took a sip before saying, "I've met you before. This must be Boss Wu, your husband?"

Instead of answering, Yao Fanghua asked, "Here?"

"Mmm."

Have you ordered yet?

Jiang Wei: "Hmm?"

"Have you ordered any hostesses?"

That's hard to say. The few times he'd met them, they'd never actually asked for anything; they seemed like perfectly respectable people, just like him, there for legitimate business. But Jiang Wei didn't believe it. As a man, he didn't trust men in this regard. His self-discipline was largely due to his lack of money, oh, and also because he wasn't good-looking enough to attract unwanted attention.

Jiang Wei: "Is he really your boyfriend?"

Yao Fanghua: "Did you order it or not?"

"I haven't seen it on the few occasions I've encountered it. I don't know about other times."

Yao Fanghua breathed a sigh of relief, "I knew it, he must have come for something important."

Jiang Wei couldn't help but pour cold water on the idea, saying, "You know, some people just like to put on an act in front of acquaintances." Who knows what they're like in private?

"Are you familiar with each other?"

"We've had a few drinks together. Do you want to invest? We'll be partners from now on, and I'll keep an eye on him for you. I'll let you know if anything happens."

Yao Fanghua: Haha. Does she look like she has a million?

"You really don't plan to invest a million?"

"Get out!" Upon hearing this number, Yao Fanghua finally couldn't hold back.

Jiang Wei: "If you don't have a million, investing 100,000 is fine too. I wouldn't mind if it were 10,000, even if it's just a smaller share."

"Would you like to take a look at my business plan? You can invest your money in me, and I guarantee you won't lose money." Ten thousand is still money. If you save ten thousand at a time, you'll eventually save up a million.

Jiang showed her the business plan, saying, "This requires a lot of upfront investment: production equipment, the entire production line, and a research and development lab. Once it's on track, we'll just be counting our money."

Yao Fanghua glanced at him, unmoved, and waved him away, telling him to get lost. A million-dollar project, ha, she could only wish him success verbally.

Jiang Wei shoved the business plan into Yao Fanghua's arms, saying, "Woman, you need to know how to secure your future. Men can't be relied on. You've invested the family's money; if something unexpected happens, I'll be your safety net!"

Yao Fanghua ignored him. Seeing that no one ordered Wanqiu, she simply paid for it herself.

Jiang was heartbroken and felt utterly wronged!
