Chapter 91 Cooperation
Zhong Nianyao shook her head and said, "You don't need to return the talisman paper to me, and you don't need to pay me now."
"What do you mean?" Ou Xuanhan became even more alert. "Are you going to give this talisman paper to me? Didn't you say it was worth 100,000? How could you just give it to me like that?"
This made him even more suspicious of the girl who was reading his fortune. She had just mentioned the value of the talisman paper, and now she was telling him that he didn't need to pay. This sounded amiss. Was she playing the long game?
Zhong Nianyao looked at Ou Xuanhan as if he was a fool. "When did I say I don't want money? Do you think my money came from the wind? I just said that you don't need to pay now."
"So what you mean is..." Ou Xuanhan was still confused, "Should I pay you or not?"
"Not for now." Zhong Nianyao raised the corner of her mouth with a mysterious arc, "As for when to pay, you will know."
Looking at Zhong Nianyao's mysterious expression, Ou Xuanhan was half-believing and half-doubting, and he really couldn't guess what she was thinking. However, he finally put the talisman paper in his pocket.
Just before Ou Xuanhan left, Zhong Nianyao reminded him again, "Remember not to go to places with heavy yin energy like cemeteries, and don't pick up random things."
Ou Xuanhan didn't understand, but nodded anyway.
Next, Zhong Nianyao named two more people who were destined to be with her.
Her reputation in this area was already very loud, and those who were chosen were flattered and sat down quickly.
After all, such good luck doesn't come around often. They came here to ask Zhong Nianyao for a fortune-teller. Now that they were chosen, they were naturally ecstatic.
After the fortune was told, Zhong Nianyao returned to the Zhong family.
As soon as she entered the room, she had expected to feel a very oppressive atmosphere. After all, something like that had just happened, and no one was in a good mood.
However, she did not expect that after entering the room, she did not feel any oppressive atmosphere, but instead the living room was full of harmony.
In the living room, both Mr. and Mrs. Zhong were present, as were everyone from the first wife's household, except for Zhong Mengfan. As for the second wife's household, Zhong Mingyu and Zhong Mengxuan were both at the hospital, so they were not present.
Zhong Mengfan's matter had just concluded, and Zhong Minghao had just signed the share transfer agreement. Logically speaking, even if he wasn't completely gloomy at the moment, he shouldn't be in a good mood.
However, now he had a warm smile on his face and was in the living room, chatting and laughing with the old man and others, without a trace of gloom at all.
Not only Zhong Minghao, but Zheng Siling and Zhong Jinghao also had joy on their faces.
It seems that something good has happened to the eldest wife, and it can even dispel the gloom of having its shares taken away.
"Nian Yao is back!" Zheng Siling looked at Zhong Nian Yao with a smile, her expression calm and without any sign of resentment at all.
"Yaoyao, come here quickly." Old Madam Zhong also saw Zhong Nianyao. She waved and said with a smile, "Come and sit down quickly."
Zhong Nianyao walked over and sat down next to Old Madam Zhong, then asked casually, "Is there any happy event?"
"Hahaha, it's indeed a happy occasion." Old Master Zhong seemed to be in a particularly good mood. He didn't keep anyone in suspense and revealed the answer directly, "It's your eldest cousin. He has secured another cooperation with the Lu family. Moreover, unlike the previous small fight, this time we are going to develop a mine together with the Fourth Master of the Lu family."
After hearing what Mr. Zhong said, Zhong Nianyao's eyes flashed with understanding.
So that's how it is. No wonder even after losing 2% of the shares, the eldest wife's side was not overshadowed by the haze.
Finalizing the partnership with the Lu family was a truly joyous occasion for Zhong's Jewelry. Not to mention the enormous profits to be gained from this collaboration, simply relying on the Lu family's partnership would undoubtedly propel the company to new heights. As soon as word of this massive collaboration with the Lu family got out, the company's stock price would undoubtedly surge.
It seems that losing shares this time not only did not make Dafang fall behind, but because of this cooperation, Dafang's status will be even higher.
Now, in Mr. Zhong's heart, he must be extremely satisfied with his eldest grandson, Zhong Jinghao.
Zhong Nianyao sat aside, listening quietly from beginning to end without expressing any opinions. She could see that as time went on, the open and covert struggles between the first and second houses had become public.
However, she could see that the first wife's advantage was definitely much greater than the second wife's, not for any other reason, but because of Zhong Jinghao.
Compared with Zhong Minghao and Zhong Mingyu, Zhong Jinghao is definitely more suitable to be the heir of the Zhong family.
If even she could see through it, how could Mr. Zhong not see it? However, Mr. Zhong probably hasn't made up his mind yet, and probably wants to continue investigating!
"What are you thinking about, Nian Yao?" Zheng Siling suddenly asked, "Are you feeling a little bored by what we're talking about? Why are you talking all the time?"
Although there was a loving smile on her face, Zheng Siling could not hide the pride in her eyes.
Zhong Nianyao smiled slightly, "No, I just wanted to congratulate my cousin. Of course, there's one more thing I want to tell my grandparents, and I'm thinking about how to start!"
She could see that Zheng Siling was demonstrating to her. This was a warning to her that even if something happened to Zhong Mengfan, their eldest house would not be greatly affected.
"What's the matter?" Old Master Zhong was in a good mood at the moment. After hearing what Zhong Nianyao said, he was still smiling. "Could it be that you want something new and want grandpa to give it to you?"
"No!" Zhong Nianyao looked at Mr. Zhong and said with a smile, "Actually, I'm planning to go on a trip next month, and I just wanted to tell you about it."
"Travel!" Madam Zhong nodded. "That's a good thing. A lot has happened recently, so it's good for you to go out and relax."
Especially after experiencing the incident of jumping into the river before, she was still a little scared when she thought about it now. So she had no objection to Zhong Nianyao's decision.
Mr. Zhong naturally did not object, but simply asked, "When do you plan to go?"
"The tenth of next month." Zhong Nianyao blurted out.
This was also the day she and Lu Yichen agreed to visit the tomb.
