Mrs. Meng's full name is He Hongying. She is the youngest among the ladies present today, and is estimated to be around thirty years old.
Xie Xihe had an impression of her. She was the one who had previously talked about the reputation of the Xie family and Old Man Xie.
Xie Xihe's gaze lingered on her dark forehead, but seeing her nose almost pointing to the sky, he didn't even want to remind her and asked directly, "Anything else?"
He Hongying was wearing 11cm high heels. She was nearly 175cm tall, a bit taller than Xie Xihe. Her chin was raised high. She squinted at Xie Xihe and said, "Miss Xie has fortune-told everyone but me. Are you afraid I can't afford it?"
She took out a bank card from her purse and threw it on the table that had not been moved yet, making a crisp sound.
She raised her chin and said, "Two million for your divination, is that enough?"
Xie Xihe glanced at the bank card and said slowly, "Mrs. Meng misunderstood."
She relaxed her body and leaned against the table, raising her eyes and said, "The Meng family is still one of the most prestigious families in Kyoto. It's only two million. Why would I worry that Madam Meng can't come up with the money?"
He Hongying raised her chin even higher, her eyes almost overflowing with pride: "I'm glad to know. In that case..."
So be it.
He Hongying wanted to speak, but before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by the girl's still casual voice.
Xie Xihe smiled faintly and continued with the previous topic, saying, "Even though Second Master Meng has many mistresses outside, and even though the expenses for each mistress are not small, even though the monthly allowance given by the Meng family to Madam Meng and her husband, as well as Madam Meng's dowry, were all used by Second Master Meng to support his mistresses."
"But Madam Meng's family is no small family. If you go to their house and make trouble, your parents, brothers and sisters-in-law will have to hold their noses and give you the money, even if it's just for the sake of face."
"If all else fails, isn't Mrs. Meng also the financial manager of the Meng Group? Any money she can transfer out will be enough for you and your wife to spend for a while."
"It's just two million, isn't it? It's just a matter of making a scene or cooking the books. Why would I think Madam Meng can't come up with that kind of money?"
Xie Xihe finished speaking slowly, without even much fluctuation in his tone, but when He Hongying heard it, her eyes widened little by little.
Shame, anger, and panic flashed across her eyes. Without a second thought, she denied, "What nonsense are you talking about? Everyone knows that Lin Hui and I have a great relationship and are a famous model couple in Kyoto. How could he possibly have a lover outside?!"
Xie Xihe said "Oh" and seemed to have just realized it. He nodded and said, "I was wrong. They are indeed not lovers, but brothers."
He gave He Hongying a meaningful look and said, "Socialist brotherhood, I understand."
He Hongying: “…”
I wanted to rush up and slap this woman to make her shut up!
But her body seemed to have lost control and she couldn't even move. She could only watch as the other person put away his smile and stared at her with a pair of cold eyes.
Xie Xihe continued, "Mrs. Meng has indeed misunderstood. I didn't tell your fortune not because I was worried that you wouldn't be able to pay, but because I couldn't stand you."
He said coldly, "Any more questions?"
Madam Meng stared intently, her eyes fierce and murderous, as if she wanted to eat someone. She gritted her teeth and said, "Lin Ying is right. Miss Xie has a fairy-like face, but in reality, she is sharp-tongued and vicious!"
Lin Ying?
It took Xie Xihe a while to find the name from his memory, and the puzzlement in his heart finally had the answer.
From the moment these ladies arrived, she noticed the hostility and displeasure in He Hongying's eyes, and wondered if her "trouble-making physique" had reached the point where she would dislike her and pick a fight with any stranger she met.
It turns out he is Lin Ying’s friend, that makes sense.
but……
Xie Xihe looked at the murderous aura that grew stronger and stronger at the woman's forehead after she mentioned Lin Ying, and a slight curve appeared at the corner of his lips.
Xie Xihe was quite happy to see the dog bite the dog, so he naturally would not go through the trouble of reminding the other party.
He just touched the bank card she had thrown on the table and said, "Mrs. Meng asked me to tell your fortune just to know who Mr. Meng's lover is. Now that you know, I won't be polite."
She threw the bank card to Sheng Yunzhou and said, "Salary."
Sheng Yunzhou hadn't expected such a good thing to happen. He was grinning from ear to ear as he held the bank card in his hand. He turned around and said to He Hongying, "Who pays with a bank card? Madam Meng is so insincere."
"But it doesn't matter. I'm right here anyway. Just transfer the money directly."
He Hongying gritted her teeth.
Although she was extremely unwilling, she was the one who started the matter and she was the one who threw the bank card away. She couldn't deny her debt in front of so many people.
Not to mention that the bank card is now in Sheng Yunzhou's hands.
In the end, he could only bear the pain and transfer two million to Sheng Yunzhou's card.
Sheng Yunzhou was quite tactful and transferred one million to Xie Xihe on the spot, and divided the remaining one million equally with Li Jinghua and others.
It is called: filial piety to elders.
Xie, Elder, Xihe: The young man has a bright future.
He Hongying was so angry that her eyelids almost turned white.
Xie Xihe ignored her, said goodbye to Madam Yang and left.
The other ladies watched a good show and walked away while whispering to each other.
He Hongying's eyes were filled with gloom, especially when she thought of Xie Xihe's words, she felt so angry that her teeth were itching.
Suddenly, she gritted her teeth, took out her cell phone and made a call.
"I agreed to the investment you mentioned last time, but I don't have much cash on hand. I can't come up with 100 million. 50 million at most."
Lin Ying on the other end of the phone looked haggard, but his eyes lit up when he heard that.
Although it was much less than expected, it was already the largest share she had obtained in this period of time, so she only thought about it for a moment before agreeing: "Okay."
He Hongying responded, hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "Are you sure you can do it? Xie's Pharmaceuticals is booming right now. Are you sure you can surpass them?"
Lin Ying said confidently, "Don't worry. This is the prescription I finally got by contacting Tianyumen. Tianyumen is one of the four secretive forces of the Hidden Alliance. As long as we spread the word, why worry about the medicine not being sold?"
"Xie's Pharmaceuticals has achieved its current status thanks to Lord Chongli and his panacea. Once we spread the word about these new medicines, and then find a way to recruit Lord Chongli, I don't believe we can't defeat a small company like Xie's Pharmaceuticals!"
The words "Tianyumen" kept echoing in her mind. He Hongying almost saw the scene where the pharmaceutical company she and Lin Ying cooperated with made a fortune and trampled on Xie's Pharmaceuticals.
It was as if he saw Xie Xihe's disgusting face turned gray.
My heart was filled with excitement: "Okay! I trust you!"
