Du Ruo smiled and said, "That's great. By the way, Brother Chen, how's the matter you mentioned going?"
Chen Yuan said, "It's almost done. This time we bought quite a lot of land, and the locations are all good. I asked a few of my old friends for help, and we took shortcuts, so the procedures were completed very quickly."
Du Ruo nodded: "I trust Brother Chen to handle things. I have to trouble Brother Chen for the Jade City matter as well. Hurry up."
Chen Yuan waved his hand: "It's all our family's business, Mr. Du, don't worry."
The cell phone next to Du Ruo rang. Chen Yuan smiled and waved his hand, then closed the door and went out to get busy.
Du Ruo pressed the answer button, and Yuan Tingchuan's voice came from the other end of the line, a little ethereal: "Ruoruo, have your rough materials and jade arrived?"
Du Ruo smiled and said, "Thank you Mr. Yuan for your consideration. It has been put into storage."
Yuan Tingchuan chuckled softly. He tapped the tabletop with his pen and asked slowly, "Ruoruo, when did you realize something was wrong?"
Du Ruo sighed and said, "Mr. Yuan, do you think all women in the world are fools? Your bodyguards from the Yuan family were able to have their young master kidnapped in broad daylight. Wouldn't Mr. Yuan's reputation be ruined in an instant?"
Yuan Tingchuan's deep laugh echoed through the receiver. "Ruoruo is right. If they were so useless, they should have gone to the sea to keep company with the sharks. There's no need to waste food."
"They say Mr. Yuan is very strict with his subordinates, and his reputation is well-deserved."
Yuan Tingchuan paused his actions upon hearing this. "Boss Du, this is like Jiang Taigong fishing, and those who are willing take the bait. We're even now. Let's remain friends from now on, right?"
Du Ruo: "Of course."
There is no benefit in being an enemy with someone like Yuan Tingchuan. She was able to succeed only because others looked down on her and were not on guard against her. It is a good thing that they can turn hostility into friendship.
If Du Ruo had not been forced to do so, he would not have played with fire. It was no fun to provoke Yuan Tingchuan. This big guy was no match for Han Ming. If he wasn't careful, he would end up getting burned.
After hanging up the phone, Yuan Tingchuan clutched the jade pendant on his chest in his palm, his eyes gradually reddening. In such a contest, who could tell the difference between true and false feelings? The dense, needle-like pain at the tip of his heart could deceive others, but not himself.
Du Ruo sat in front of the window, staring out in a daze. The encounter was not presentable, and the result was destined. As for the sincerity, there was a little, but not much.
