"Brother Long?"
Xiang Yanlong took a drag of his cigarette, squinted to regain his senses, and placed his hand on her abdomen to touch it.
"Xiaxia, why are your brother Long's hands shaking? Your brother Long has seen all kinds of things in his life, but he's never seen anything like this before. This is your brother Long's first time having a child, so what's a little shaking? Come on, let's go to the room, I'll take off all my clothes and show you, your brother Long is shaking in many places!"
Mao Xia blushed. "Brother Long, why are you being so indecent?"
Xiang Yanlong hugged her waist and said emotionally, "Xiaxia, this is my first child. If my parents knew I had a child outside, they would be so touched. I will tell my mother that you helped me with the money, and I will ask her to give you the money back, and also give you a luxury car and a diamond ring as compensation... Xiaxia, our Xiang family will not treat you unfairly! I, Xiang Yanlong, will not treat you unfairly either. We will have a happy family and a lovely child."
Xiang Yanlong squinted, but inwardly he chuckled self-deprecatingly.
Having come this far, there's really no other way but to be ruthless.
What do children matter?
This child isn't even as big as a finger!
Even if she hadn't been born while still in Mao Xia's womb, so what?
How could a mere child possibly try to restrain Xiang Yanlong and prevent him from becoming rich through Xiang Yanlong?
"Xiaxia, don't eat anything indiscriminately lately. Tomorrow I'll ask the doctor to buy you some vitamins, and also some bird's nest and shark fin, so you can give birth to a big, healthy boy!"
"Brother Long, you're making fun of him again!" Mao Xia said seriously. "Right now, your matter is more important. We'll go to the bank tomorrow and figure out a way to forge a transaction to transfer the money to you... We can't let your father find out that I'm helping you, can we?"
Xiang Yanlong never imagined there could be such a stupid person in the world.
He was worried about how to bring up the matter of forged transactions.
Mao Xia actually brought it up herself. Someone like her, even if they didn't swindle the 37 million yuan, the money would eventually end up in someone else's pocket.
"Xiaxia, you're so thoughtful. Actually, there's no rush for the money. It's not like I've never seen money before..."
“Brother Long, I know you don’t care about this money, but this is my heartfelt wish. The sooner we settle things, the sooner we can go back to Xiangjia. That’s where you should be. My child and I are waiting for you to take us back to Xiangjia.”
Mao Xia happily touched her belly, and Xiang Yanlong felt that there was a maternal glow on her face, though he wasn't sure if it was just his imagination.
“Then I’ll have a friend’s company do some accounting tomorrow. You sign a few names, and we’ll go through the accounts to make it look like a 37 million transaction. That way, even my old man won’t be able to find any flaws.”
Mao Xia readily agreed.
Mao Xia was completely charmed by Xiang Yanlong. When she got home, her cheeks were flushed. As she stood at the door changing her shoes, she stared blankly at her toes. She was about to become the young mistress of the Xiang family. Marrying Xiang Yanlong meant that she would have her own home, and the master of this home would not be her father or mother, but her and Xiang Yanlong.
She will become the head of the household, deciding the color of the curtains, working tirelessly like a bee for the future of the family.
Mao Xia finally felt a sense of belonging and was overjoyed. Zhou Chufei came out of the house and saw her so infatuated with love that he felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
Although he possessed Zhou Jian'an's cold-bloodedness, he was still young and not as ruthless as Zhou Jian'an.
Zhou Chufei remembered that Mao Xia had once bought him a box of playing cards, and for some reason felt a little reluctant.
What if my brother-in-law is a liar?
Mao Xia assumed Zhou Jian'an had told him about Xiang Yanlong, and his smile remained unchanged. "How could he be a liar? You don't know how good he is. Just now, I went to the hotel and saw a woman throwing herself at him, but he pushed her away without even looking at her for my sake. He's an upright person and trustworthy. Investing in him is investing in my future."
Zhou Chufei hesitated, then said, "But he might be faking it, you know? Men are the best at pretending. Many men are clearly scheming against women, but they keep talking about love. In reality, they are all scheming."
Mao Xia laughed. Zhou Chufei dropped out of school after barely finishing junior high and hadn't had a proper education all these years. Not only was he illiterate, but he also spoke without thinking.
Zhou Chufei was talking about an ordinary man, but Xiang Yanlong is the eldest son of the Xiang family. Is he an ordinary man?
"Didn't your dad investigate the Xiang family's background? He is the eldest son of the Xiang family. He has luxury cars and yachts, often buys me luxury goods, and is willing to spend a fortune to please me. He is the best man in the world to me!"
Zhou Chufei sneered, "Men can only get worse, there's no limit to how bad they can be."
"You brat... It's one thing to be uncultured, but you always spout nonsense! Let me tell you, your brother-in-law has a temper. Don't talk nonsense in front of him. If you ruin my wedding and shatter my dream of marrying into a wealthy family, see how I deal with you!"
Mao Xia snorted and went into the bathroom to take a shower.
The company that Xiang Yanlong mentioned as his friend was actually controlled by Zhou Jian'an. In order to make things seamless and prevent Mao Xia from finding any flaws, Zhou Jian'an specially set up this shell company, intending to use it to transfer funds. Once the money arrived in the company's account, he would immediately withdraw it.
Once Mao Xia signs his name on the blank paper, the matter is settled, and there is no room for maneuver.
Fearing that Xiang Yanlong might arouse Mao Xia's suspicion at a crucial moment, Zhou Jian'an explained a lot about company transfers to him, making him seem more like an experienced young master of the Xiang family.
Xiang Yanlong was also a little nervous. After the deal was done, Zhou Jian'an would give him a share of five million. Although they had an agreement, Xiang Yanlong was still afraid that things would go wrong and the money would not reach his account.
