Ye Fan was furious: "Are you crazy? Do you think I run a money printing factory?"
He glared at Dao Lei in exasperation, wondering if he had encountered a lunatic.
Dao Lei glanced at him guiltily, then said righteously, "Let's not beat around the bush, my Tianxing Group's formula is worth at least several billion, right?"
"Compared to that, what is a mere 100 million pounds?"
Ye Fan, enraged, said, "But the huge price I paid wasn't for a legitimate formula; it was just a safe key."
Dao Lei smiled faintly: "It is said that Mr. Ye is extremely fond of your group's president, An Muyue? And is also my boss Wei Tianci's love rival?"
“Mr. Ye, you should imagine the wonderful things that will happen after you get the key: winning An Muyue’s heart, affirming your abilities, and also taking a hit on my boss, Wei Tianci.”
"Isn't this a win-win situation worth a hundred million?"
Ye Fan said in a deep voice, "But one hundred million pounds is too expensive, it's simply outrageous!"
Dao Lei sighed, "Haven't you considered how much of a reward you'd get if you used this to win the heart of the beauty and eventually become the man of the female president of Ankang Group?"
"You can't catch a wolf without risking your cub, brother."
Ye Fan was taken aback.
Dao Lei shook his head, then stood up and made to leave: "Alright, you're too indecisive. I have something to do, so I'm leaving first."
Ye Fan suddenly stood up and blocked his way, squinting at him.
Dao Lei said calmly, "I advise you not to force the issue. Whether something happens to the key I have or to me, Tianxing Group will immediately transfer the formula and cancel tomorrow's press conference."
Ye Fan's pupils contracted, and then he said, word by word, "One hundred million pounds, I'll pay!"
Dao Lei breathed a sigh of relief; he was genuinely worried that Ye Fan might lash out and hurt someone if provoked.
The rest of the process is quite simple.
One person takes out the key.
One person pays the money.
Just half an hour later, 100 million pounds sterling was deposited into Ning Xingruo's Swiss bank account.
Ning Xingruo's face lit up; she had finally earned some interest for Tianci.
She turned around and cupped Tianci's cheeks in her slender hands: "Darling, you are my lucky star. I will have a billion dollars in my account in no time, hahahahaha."
The people in the conference room showered him with flattery once again.
Wei Tianci looked at her with a toothache in his eyes: "What business is it of mine if you earn money through your own abilities?"
[It's all over! Xingruo intervened in the conflict between the two sides prematurely, and now the ending of the plot is unpredictable.]
Ning Xingruo glanced at him with a smile but said nothing, and then told everyone to leave work and go home.
Finally, she drove Wei Tianci to the Global Shopping Center, claiming that she had just made a windfall and needed to spend it.
They also bought some clothes for the press conference the following day.
When Wei Tianci arrived at the Global Center with a worried look on his face, he discovered that his mother, Fang Rong, had also been invited out by Ning Xingruo.
The still-charming Wei Mu and the stunningly beautiful Ning Xingruo walked hand in hand through the shopping mall as night fell, attracting quite a few admiring glances.
As a result, Wei Tianci, the only man, also became the focus of attention.
Inside the Hermès store.
Ning Xingruo tried on a sky-blue cheongsam with blue and white porcelain design.
Because of her tall figure and elegant demeanor, the cheongsam she wore exuded a sense of nobility.
"Darling, is it pretty?" Ning Xingruo looked at Wei Tianci expectantly.
Do I even need to ask you? Don't you know how beautiful you are and how hot your figure is?
[After searching through this entire shopping mall, can you find a woman more radiant than you?]
However, Wei Tianci always kept his persona in mind, and he said insincerely, "Hmph, it's just so-so, far inferior to An Muyue in a cheongsam."
Fang Rong's doting smile froze instantly.
The son still has his eye on the An family's daughter?
The Wei and Ning families joined forces to create Tianxing Group with the aim of replacing An Muyue in their son's heart with the more outstanding Ning Xingruo.
Tonight, even Mrs. Wei thought the plan had succeeded.
Because she could sense the joy and happiness of the Ning family girl, who even took the initiative to invite her, her future mother-in-law, shopping, and she would pay the bill!
Unexpectedly, the son remained incorrigible.
Fang Rong's face fell.
“Auntie, Tianci is just joking,” Ning Xingruo quickly explained for Tianci.
Seeing this, Fang Rong felt even more ashamed. She looked at Wei Tianci angrily and said, "What's so good about An Muyue? Can she compare to Xing Ruo? Don't take your good fortune for granted!"
Wei Tianci said sullenly, "An Muyue is good in every way. At least she is not from an arranged marriage. She is the one I pursued through free love."
[Any man who had a fiancée like Xing Ruo, whose marriage was arranged by her, would be overjoyed. It's like a windfall!]
[If someone can't even be attracted to such a stunning woman, then they must be asking for trouble!]
Fang Rong was furious when she heard this. How could she have given birth to such an insensitive and stupid son? She was now beyond saving.
She held Ning Xingruo's small hand tightly as if to comfort her, her expression extremely complicated.
The Ning family's daughter is a well-known heiress in Shanghai.
She is of marriageable age and possesses both beauty and talent. Countless wealthy and powerful families are eyeing her with longing, dreaming of having her as their daughter-in-law.
As a result, the girl's heart was completely devoted to her son.
Fang Rong felt proud of her son, but also felt sorry for the little girl.
Because of her own bad son, she really doesn't deserve such a good girl!
Perhaps sensing the change in Wei's mother's emotions, Ning Xingruo glared at Wei Tianci reproachfully.
Then she said to her future mother-in-law, "Auntie, don't worry, Tianci and I will be fine. I love him, and I will take good care of him."
"I also need to carry on the Wei family line and continue the excellent genes bestowed upon me by heaven."
This strong woman spoke as if making a promise, as if talking to herself.
Wei Tianci stared at her dumbfounded.
[My God, Ning Xingruo, do you even know what you're saying?]
You are a business tycoon with unparalleled wisdom!
[You'll become the all-powerful Queen of Shanghai someday!]
【Being vindictive and ruthless are your true labels, okay?】
How can you be so sentimental and act like a little girl?
Upon hearing this, Mother Wei trembled, her eyes fixed on Ning Xingruo, who was smiling radiantly beside her.
Fang Rong then looked at Wei Tianci with a serious expression: "Son, if you still can't forget An Muyue, I'll have the butler take away your airplanes, airships, and other such frivolous things."
“If you dare to betray Xingruo, I will also suspend your bank black card and limit your monthly cash withdrawal limit to only 300,000.”
"In the end, all I'll leave you is a villa and a few sports cars. Let's see how you live on that."
Ning Xingruo's understanding and willingness to compromise deeply moved Fang Rong.
She felt she couldn't stand idly by.
