But then he changed the subject: "However, if you want it, I can go back and see if I can find it, but the price might have to be raised a bit..."
She has to search one place at a time, which is quite troublesome.
But you can always make some money. If you really can't find a man, then sell things to men. You're still making money off men, so it's pretty much the same thing.
Even if it's 10 billion, I don't know if all the herbs on the mountain would be enough.
Seeing how easily she spoke of it, Chu Juan felt a little uneasy. This thing was too rare; if someone really had it, it was impossible for it not to have appeared on the market for so many years.
But he wanted to take a gamble.
"A lot of money or a little money is not a problem, as long as you can afford it, any amount is fine."
They have plenty of money; anything they can buy with money is no problem.
"Okay, it's a deal." Su Yuxi slapped her thigh and confirmed it for him.
"Transfer some deposit to me first." She handed the phone back to him, her heart leaping with joy. When doing things, you have to pay a deposit. What if she finds out and he says he doesn't want it? Who can she complain to then? Asking for a deposit should at least prevent her from losing too much.
Without the slightest hesitation, Chu Juan generously transferred five million to her as a deposit.
Su Yuxi was astonished to see so much money come into her account so easily.
Qianqian said her cousin was stingy, but isn't he actually quite generous?
Five million can be easily obtained.
Next time, she'll have to prove to him that he's not stingy.
"It's a pleasure to cooperate." Su Yuxi smiled and shook his hand. A deal was reached so pleasantly, thanks to her own strength, not her charm.
For some reason, she felt a sense of pride.
A wealthy young man who was closest to him listened to the whole thing from the side.
He had been wondering why the two big shots next to Su Yuxi weren't angry or trying to get rid of her while she was sitting there; it turned out they knew each other all along.
And it seems they just closed a deal worth tens of millions.
This woman is nothing like the one Lu Yunzhou described, the one who can't live without him.
And now, they've already gotten in touch with Chu Juan.
On the other hand, Lu Yunzhou and Jiang Shiqian sat alone in a corner, talking and laughing softly because they had to accommodate Jiang Shiqian. Everyone was also unable to smoke because of Jiang Shiqian, making the whole party feel rather dull.
Boring.
Jiang Shiqian was once incredibly beautiful, but now her methods are no different from those of other women.
He shook his head speechlessly; he had never seen such a clueless man.
The woman he had pampered and cherished was put in an awkward situation by the return of an ex-girlfriend.
Now that she's hooked up with Chu Juan, she might not be able to tolerate his decadent private life.
Let's see what happens to the two of them in the end.
Chu Juan squeezed her hand back briefly before letting go, then glanced back at Fu Huaijin and suddenly asked out of the blue, "Miss Su, are you looking for a job?"
A row of question marks appeared on the back of Su Yuxi's head.
Chu Juan, hiding the mischievous glint in his eyes, said, "Didn't you cook a meal for Huai Jin the other day? He thought your cooking was pretty good and wanted you to come over and cook for him every afternoon at five o'clock. You can name your price."
The price is up to you; what an attractive offer!
Su Yuxi subconsciously tilted her head back slightly and secretly glanced at Fu Huaijin on the other side. Unexpectedly, he looked over as well. Their eyes met, and sparks flew between them. Startled, she quickly looked away and gave an awkward smile.
Although she believed her cooking skills were quite good, she was definitely not as good as those chefs who worked in the kitchen year-round.
Moreover, this man is not easy to get along with at all. Being in the same space as him always makes me feel like my life is in danger.
She shook her head resolutely.
"No, thank you."
She doesn't know how much money she can make from cooking a meal; she just wants to live comfortably every day.
Chu Juan looked disappointed. He had thought that she liked money and would definitely accept any price as long as it was offered. He also thought that Huai Jin's time at six o'clock was more dangerous, and that if she was there, his suffering would be much less.
“Okay.” She didn’t want to accept, and they didn’t force her.
"What are you talking about?" Lu Yunzhou, who had been watching from the corner, finally couldn't hold back and came over.
Originally, he wanted to teach Su Yuxi a lesson, to make her understand her place, and to stop acting childishly.
Everyone present gave her face, but these two brothers didn't respond, so he had to come over by himself.
He had just sat down when he reached out to put his arm around Su Yuxi's shoulder.
Unlike before, Su Yuxi didn't swallow her anger and instead moved her buttocks away in disgust, not wanting to have anything to do with him.
Lu Yunzhou's face darkened for a moment. He hadn't expected Su Yuxi to dodge, which was a blatant embarrassment to him in front of his brother.
He suppressed his anger, leaned closer, grabbed her arm, and lowered his voice: "Xixi, don't be angry. Qianqian has already let it go. Go apologize to her later and don't let her go back feeling resentful."
Su Yuxi smelled a faint blue fragrance on him that belonged to another woman. Her delicate eyebrows furrowed, and she couldn't help but move further away from him. Her actions revealed an unprecedented sense of estrangement and self-protection. She also deliberately lowered her voice: "Let go."
Seeing that she was still resisting him, Lu Yunzhou felt annoyed and his temper flared up. He grabbed her slender waist with his large hand, wanting to control her.
His palms were warm and hot, but they made her feel nauseous.
Su Yuxi pursed her lips, resisting his touch, and secretly tried to pry his hand away, a hint of ruthlessness flashing in her eyes.
But Lu Yunzhou was determined to stand up to her tonight, refusing to let go and even increasing the pressure on her, giving her no chance to escape.
In this delicate atmosphere, the two pretended to be nonchalant on the surface, but under the circumstances, undercurrents were surging and the situation was escalating.
In the end, Su Yuxi prevailed slightly. After breaking free of her restraints, she stood up abruptly, instantly attracting everyone's attention.
Lu Yunzhou looked up at her, clenched his fists, and gritted his teeth to give up his desire to continue competing with her. He angrily slammed himself back onto the sofa.
Su Yuxi gently rubbed her waist, which he had pinched so hard, and looked around. To get rid of Lu Yunzhou's entanglement, she had to change her position.
Wherever her gaze fell, everyone silently filled their seats and looked away, clearly not wanting her to come to their side.
It seems their actions did not escape the notice of these people.
They naturally know how to choose between business associates and insignificant pretty women.
She was starting to think about Qianqian, the woman who always stood before her without hesitation.
Jiang Shiqian sat quietly in the corner, having witnessed their flirtatious behavior the whole time. Her face was extremely ugly, her eyes were sinister and terrifying, and the leather sofa below her was almost torn apart by her fingernails.
