The wine glasses clinked together, making a pleasant sound.
The appetizer was soup.
Drinking the long-awaited bamboo fungus and pigeon soup, Tang An was filled with emotion. She never imagined that after the Shi family's downfall, she would still be able to come here to dine on her own.
After finishing the meal.
Tang An elegantly wiped his mouth with a tissue, then looked at Feng Xiwang and said, "Speak."
Feng Xiwang was taken aback. "I don't understand what you mean, Miss Tang."
Tang An smiled slightly, "We're all adults, why pretend to be confused when you know the truth? Mr. Feng, tell me your purpose, why you approached me."
Tang An is not some naive and innocent girl.
She knew that from the moment Feng hoped to get close to her, this person had come with an ulterior motive.
When Tang An directly exposed his thoughts, Feng Xiwang no longer concealed them and said with a smile, "Miss Tang is indeed very intelligent. She saw at a glance that I need your help."
At this point, Feng Xiwang paused, "Actually, this matter is just a trivial matter for Miss Tang."
"Tell me," Tang An said.
Feng Xiwang mentally organized his thoughts before continuing, "Ms. Tang, I run a jewelry business, and our company is currently preparing for an IPO..."
Going public?
Tang An narrowed his eyes, and suddenly realized something. "So, you want me to help you steal my brother's design drawings?"
“Calling it stealing is too harsh,” Feng Xiwang continued. “Mr. Shi is a rare talent in the city’s jewelry industry. We just wanted to learn from his ideas.”
Learn from?
Tang An snorted coldly, stood up abruptly from her chair, and said angrily, "Mr. Feng, what do you take me for! That's my brother! How could I, as his sister, betray my own brother?"
That's absolutely ridiculous!
You have to understand, Shi Mubai is now his only support.
“Ms. Tang, please don’t be angry,” Feng Xiwang took out his phone, pressed a few buttons, and then pushed the phone in front of Tang An. “As long as you can provide us with the original design of CL Jewelry, we are willing to give you this amount.”
Tang An glanced at his phone.
It starts with the number 8 and has 8 digits.
When Feng saw Tang An's expression change upon seeing these figures, he knew there was definitely a chance. "Ms. Tang, the original design drafts for CL Jewelry are actually only worth 60 million on the market, but our president is willing to give you that amount."
"Please think it over carefully."
"Oh, right." Feng Xiwang smiled and added, "Our president is willing to pay you a deposit of 2 million yuan first."
Tang An narrowed his eyes, his expression unreadable, and after a long while, he finally spoke, "I will never betray my brother!"
Feng Xiwang took out another business card and placed it on the table. "Let's be friends, Miss Tang. Whether this matter comes to fruition or not is another matter."
After saying this, Feng Xiwang turned and left.
Tang An watched Feng Xiwang's retreating figure with a solemn expression.
An hour later.
Tang An returned to the villa.
When she returned, the lights in the villa were still on.
The aunt opened the door for her. "Miss Tang is back."
Tang An nodded. "Aunt Liu, where's my brother?"
"The gentleman is still working overtime in his study," the aunt replied.
Tang An nodded and walked to the shoe cabinet to change into slippers.
Just as she changed her shoes, Shi Mubai arrived. He stood at the top of the stairs and said with a smile, "An'an."
"Brother Mu Bai." Tang An looked up at Shi Mu Bai.
Shi Mubai continued, "An'an, I've introduced you to someone, my good brother Qi Chengze. He should have added you on WeChat by now. You two can chat. Chengze is a pretty good catch, a real catch. Even if you don't click, you can still be friends."
Should I introduce her to someone?
Qi Chengze?
If Tang An remembers correctly, Qi Chengze's family background was very ordinary. He was able to study abroad only through scholarships and worked hard for many years to achieve his current success.
How could someone like that be worthy of me?
Tang An's expression changed, becoming subtle.
So what if Shi Mubai treats her like a younger sister?
She knew it.
Living under someone else's roof means you're always living under someone else's roof.
Tang An smiled sweetly, "Thank you, Brother Mu Bai."
Back in his room, Tang An took out a business card from his bag and sent a message: "I agree."
That's 80 million.
With this money, she can live the life she wants and never have to depend on others again!
From now on, she will never live a life of dependence on others again!
