After Jiang Yue finished making breakfast for Dongdong and had the kitchen helper take it away, Madam Lu came over to Jiang Yue and said, "Yueyue, don't forget that we are going to the hospital for a check-up this afternoon."
As Jiang Yue's pregnancy progressed, the time between each prenatal checkup gradually shortened.
Today just happened to be the day for my checkup.
"Okay, Mom. The bidding should be over by noon. I'll come back for lunch and then we'll go to the hospital."
Jiang Yue nodded, had breakfast with Madam Lu, tidied up briefly, and then went out.
Now, milk tea shops have opened chains in cities around Kyoto, and workshops have started to select sites to build factories. Everything is developing in a positive direction.
However, the money she earned was still far from enough for Jiang Yue to do charity.
Just as Kyoto was beginning to develop, Jiang Yue, Shen Huaiyuan, and Lu Yan decided to buy land in Kyoto.
This morning, the municipal government held a bidding auction for a prime piece of land. Jiang Yue had done her homework thoroughly for this bidding process and was determined to secure it today.
The land auction was held in the lobby of an office building not far from the municipal government.
When Jiang Yue arrived, Lu Yan was already waiting for her at the door.
Standing at the door with Lu Yan was Pei Huai.
Lu Yan, who was talking to Pei Huai, saw Jiang Yue's car approaching, immediately waved to Jiang Yue, then ran to her car and opened the door for her.
Pei Huai saw that Jiang Yue had also followed.
Jiang Yue greeted Lu Yan and then looked at Pei Huai, "Why is President Pei here too?"
Are you here for today's auction as well?
Pei Huai smiled and nodded, "Yes, I didn't expect to meet President Jiang and Lu Yan here. This is my first time in a place like this."
He had no experience in the real estate business, but many people had made a fortune in it in the past two years. Pei Huai was now a businessman with profitable businesses, so he naturally wanted to get a piece of the pie.
However, he hadn't expected Jiang Yue to come.
Jiang Yue didn't expect to run into Pei Huai here, but she quickly came to terms with it. The Pei family was wealthy, and buying a few plots of land was nothing to them.
However, this made Jiang Yue unsure whether she could win the bid for the land today.
Because Pei Huai is richer than her.
As they walked towards the venue together, Pei Huai asked Jiang Yue softly, "President Jiang, do you really want this land?"
Jiang Yue nodded, "Of course." If she didn't want this land, why did she and Lu Yan come here today?
Is it for entertainment?
Seeing Jiang Yue nod, Pei Huai smiled and asked, "Does President Jiang know who else is bidding for this land today?"
“I know.” Jiang Yue had done her homework before coming. “I talked to Lu Yan before I came, and we know almost everyone who came today.”
But we hadn't heard that President Pei would be coming today.
Pei Huai explained with a smile, "I decided to come at the last minute. Our Pei family has never done this kind of business before, so many people didn't expect me to come."
It's normal that Jiang Yue didn't know he was coming.
"Sigh!" Jiang Yue sighed helplessly. With President Pei here today, Lu Yan and I have no confidence in this land.
Who can blame her when someone else is richer than her?
"Hahaha!"
Jiang Yue's words immediately made Pei Huai laugh.
“If Mr. Jiang really likes this land, I can give it to you. If you’re willing, I can bid for it and give it to you as a thank you gift for cooking for our Dongdong.”
After all, he wasn't short of money, but Jiang Yue seemed to be. Pei Huai knew that Jiang Yue had been doing charity work, and he heard that she donated almost all of her earnings to charity.
Upon hearing this, Jiang Yue shook her head, "Your gift is far too generous. I can't accept it. I don't want to receive something for nothing. I'd rather use my own abilities to get this land. Mr. Pei, please don't be shy about it later."
The business world is like a battlefield. If she wins, Jiang Yue will definitely be happy. If she loses, it only means that she hasn't worked hard enough. She can continue to work hard, but she will never accept gifts from others.
Pei Huai wasn't surprised by the rejection. If Jiang Yue were the kind of person who liked to take advantage of others, she wouldn't have been pampered like a treasure by the Lu family.
"Since President Jiang doesn't want my gift, how about we cooperate?"
As Pei Huai spoke, he moved slightly closer to Jiang Yue and whispered in her ear, "To be honest, buying this land was a spur-of-the-moment decision for me. I really have no idea what to do with it after I buy it."
"Since President Jiang wants this land so much, he must have a plan for what to do after buying it."
"How about this: I'll buy the land, and Mr. Jiang will decide how to use it afterward. We'll split the profits 50/50, how does that sound?"
Actually, Pei Huai had his own selfish reasons for saying that. If he could work with Jiang Yue, their relationship would definitely be closer than it is now. That way, whenever she makes something delicious in the future, she would definitely think of Dongdong and give him a share.
It's a pity Jiang Yue got married. If Jiang Yue hadn't gotten married, he would definitely have done everything he could to win her over.
Jiang Yue raised an eyebrow at Pei Huai's suggestion but did not immediately agree.
"Then let's wait until President Pei wins the bid for this land."
Ten minutes later, the auction began.
After three rounds of bidding, Jiang Yue and Lu Yan, despite having done their best, ultimately lost to Pei Huai's superpowers.
Pei Huai really did win the bid for this piece of land.
As they left the venue, Lu Yan glared at Pei Huai with displeasure. "President Pei, my sister-in-law is heavily pregnant and has to cook for your son every day. And you still dare to try and steal the land we wanted to bid on. You're so unfair."
He's so angry!
However, Lu Yan only made a few sarcastic remarks. Since they were not as wealthy as others, they lost, and that was that.
"Lu Yan, don't be so angry."
Pei Huai smiled and patted Lu Yan on the shoulder, "Although this land is now really in my hands, I still hope to cooperate with you."
As he spoke, Pei Huai looked at Jiang Yue and said, "I hope President Jiang can give me this opportunity."
Jiang Yue said, "I can't decide this matter on my own. I need to discuss it with my partner when I get back."
"Of course, I await President Jiang's good news."
Pei Huai didn't care how many partners Jiang Yue had behind her.
He only wanted to cooperate with Jiang Yue; he had a feeling that he would definitely not suffer losses by cooperating with Jiang Yue.
Jiang Yue nodded, deciding not to continue chatting with Pei Huai. "Mr. Pei, it's getting late. I need to cook lunch for your child, so I'll head back now."
"good."
Pei Huai nodded and watched Jiang Yue leave.
Actually, he really wanted to go back with Jiang Yue to help her cook, but he thought it wouldn't be appropriate for a man like him to go back with her, so he held back.
After watching Jiang Yue and Lu Yan leave, Pei Huai walked towards his car.
The assistant, sitting in the car, saw Pei Huai return and quickly handed him the land purchase contract.
"President Pei, the contract is all finalized. Are you really planning to cooperate with that President Jiang on this land?"
