Volume 1, Chapter 238: Xie Qingyi was fooled
"Aunt, who are you trying to catch?"
Xie Chaoxiang walked in with a scoundrel look on his face, leaving the floor in a mess, and said in disgust, "Hey, why did you break this bowl?"
Looking up at Yan Lan who was standing by her side, she said with a smile, "My cousin's wife is becoming less and less efficient at work. Is it because my cousin has a relationship with a woman outside?"
Yan Lan looked unhappy and wondered in her heart, what was this prodigal son Xie Chaoxiang doing here?
Xie Qingyi said to Yan Lan in a bad mood: "Why don't you clean up this place quickly? It will make people feel embarrassed when they see you."
"Yes, Mom, I'll get it right away."
Yan Lan quickly cleaned up the mess on the ground and then retreated.
"Chao Xiang, what are you doing here?"
Xie Qingyi's attitude towards Xie Chaoxiang is obviously different.
Xie Chaoxiang sat down next to Xie Qingyi and said flatteringly, "Aunt, I came here today to tell you something great."
Xie Qingyi frowned and said with disdain, "What good things can you have? You have done something wrong to me again, haven't you?"
"Aunt, look at what you said. You even sent someone to watch over me and not let me go to the casino. I have been very well behaved recently."
"What are you doing here today? Don't tell me, I just came to see my aunt."
"Of course I came to see my aunt. In this world, my aunt is my only relative. I have been closest to my aunt since I was a child. I miss you the most."
Yan Lan looked at Xie Chaoxiang with contempt. This prodigal son was only good at talking, but Xie Qingyi doted on him so much that she couldn't help but think that he was her only nephew from her mother's side.
Xie Qingyi pretended to be stern and said, "Don't come on, tell me what's going on."
"Aunt, I came here today to bring you good news. When I went to discuss business today, I happened to meet Gu Xunjing trying to please a foreigner. I heard that the foreigner had a big project in his hands. With an investment of 1 billion, he could make a profit of 10 billion. He had negotiated with Gu Xuanwu. Gu Xuanwu asked Gu Xunjing to entertain him. It seemed that he attached great importance to it. I also went to learn about it. This project is indeed feasible, and the other party is very capable."
"What does this have to do with you?"
"Aunt, that person just fainted due to hypoglycemia, and I saved him. To express his gratitude, he was willing to let me participate in this project, but I don't have that much money on hand."
"What do you mean? You want me to give you 1 billion? Impossible."
When talking about money, the smile on Xie Qingyi's face disappeared.
Even if her two sons wanted the 1 billion, she would not give it to them, let alone her prodigal nephew. Of course, it is safest to keep the money in her own pocket.
Xie Chaoxiang was unwilling to be rejected and continued to pester her.
"Aunt, if we invest 1 billion and make a profit of 10 billion, you take 60% and I take 40%, okay? Or how about you take 70% and I take 30%, that's fine, right?"
Xie Chaoxiang pestered his aunt as hard as he could, insisting that she give him the money.
"Aunt, you always said I was incompetent, but I won't let you down now. When we make a profit of 10 billion, our Xie family will be able to regain its former glory."
The profit of 10 billion made Xie Qingyi eager to make a move, but he still remained skeptical.
“Is the news reliable?”
"It's very reliable. I overheard Gu Xunjing's conversation with that person and found out that he was working on a project with Gu Xuanwu. It was a big project with a 10-fold return rate.
And it was because I saved that person that he gave me this opportunity. If I had gotten there first, Gu Xuanwu would have been furious that I had snatched away the person he had tried so hard to contact. As long as this project is completed, you, aunt, will get 7 billion, and I will have 3 billion. You don’t have to ask anyone to watch over me in the future. Even if it’s gambling, I can’t spend all the 3 billion, and I won’t bother you anymore in the future.”
Ten billion is indeed very tempting, and Xie Qingyi is very tempted. In addition, her nephew is persistent, so Xie Qingyi is somewhat tempted, but she is still worried.
"One billion is still too much investment. What if we lose money?"
"Auntie won't lose money. This is a project that Gu Xuanwu is optimistic about. Are you still worried? We are now intercepting Gu Xuanwu's project."
Gu Xuanwu's investment vision is recognized by everyone. If he likes a project, there will generally be no problem.
"Aunt, this is a business that can grow tenfold. If you miss it, you'll lose it."
"One billion is still too much."
Xie Qingyi was very tempted, but still very cautious.
"Aunt. If you think his ability is too great, why don't we invest 500 million? After all, I am his savior."
Xie Qingyi was still very conflicted when she thought about investing 500 million yuan.
Xie Chaoxiang did not continue to fight, but took a step back and said.
"If auntie thinks 500 million is too much, why not try investing 100 million? Then you can make a profit of 1 billion. That's not bad either. You can't miss such a good opportunity."
Thinking that this was a project that Gu Xuanwu had taken a fancy to, Xie Qingyi gritted her teeth and said.
"Okay, let's give it a try with 100 million."
Xie Qingyi transferred 100 million to Xie Chaoxiang, and Xie Chaoxiang saw clearly the password Xie Qingyi entered.
"Okay, thank you, Auntie. We'll share 1 billion. I'll bring 700 million back to honor you."
…
The next day, Jiang's
"Hui Rong, Sui Sui, can we set off now?"
The Jiang family is going to attend a charity dinner. Jiang Zhengguo asks Yang Huirong and Jiang Qiansui if they are ready?
Yang Huirong adjusted Jiang Qiansui's skirt and said proudly, "My daughter is so beautiful. She looks even more radiant in this evening dress."
Yang Huirong looked at Jiang Qiansui with eyes full of love. Her daughter was so beautiful.
The noble temperament she possesses is different from the pretended nobility displayed by those female stars on TV.
That is an innate, natural nobility.
Her daughter is a dazzling pearl wherever she goes.
Just when the family was about to leave, a group of uninvited guests suddenly walked in with great momentum. The one walking in the front was an old lady.
"Where are you going, dressed so ostentatiously?"
The old lady's face was full of contempt and disgust. She was Jiang Qiansui's grandmother and Yang Huirong's mother-in-law.
When Yang Huirong saw the old lady, her face changed color. Jiang Zhengguo quickly went up to her and said, "Mom, sister-in-law, why are you here?"
The old lady said coldly, "The scandals in your family have long been spread back home. I have to come and take a look."
The old lady was leaning on a cane and stomped the cane hard on the ground. The whole atmosphere instantly became solemn.
The old lady and Yang Huirong had a fight in the early years because of Jiang Che and Jiang Zhengguo's ex-girlfriend. The old lady went back to her hometown angrily and wanted to threaten Jiang Zhengguo.
But Jiang Zhengguo was firm in his stance and refused to listen to the old lady. The old lady went back to the old house and was angry and refused to come back. In recent years, he only went back to see the old lady during the New Year and other festivals. Today, the old lady came.
"Scandal? Mom, I don't understand what you mean."
