Chapter 53: Fifty-three billion "Beware of fire, theft, and brothers." ...
"Ms. Xin." Xi Jiyu called Xin Jingli just as she reached the door.
Zou Yue was seeing off a guest when he saw this scene and nudged Xu Ya's shoulder. "Wasn't she with Mr. Zhang just now? Why is she with Mr. Xi now?"
The Xi family and the Zhang family are business competitors. They may appear friendly on the surface, but they are not friends behind the scenes.
"Could it be that she discovered Zhang Shidao's cruel methods and got scared, so she wanted to use her beauty to beg Xi Jiyu for protection?"
Xu Ya doesn't like discussing other people's private affairs, and she doesn't like gossip, especially putting accusations on others. For some unknown reason, Zou Yue has already convicted Miss Xin of being superficial.
She nudged Zou Yue with her elbow. "Don't talk nonsense! Maybe she's capable, and Boss Zhang didn't dare to offend her, so he let her in. Besides, it was Boss Xi who called her first. How did it become like she was trying to seduce Boss Xi?"
"Let's make a bet. Two hundred dollars. If she's really capable, I'll transfer the money to you right away. If I guess right, you get a date with me."
Xu Ya could certainly feel that Zou Yue liked her. Being able to be a receptionist, Zou Yue's appearance was acceptable. However, Zou Yue hated the rich in his heart, but his behavior of flattering the rich on the surface was too cheap. Xu Ya curled her lips in disgust and moved aside.
"See, deep down you also think she got to the top by relying on her beauty, right?"
Seeing that Zou Yue was inexplicably successful, Xu Ya was too lazy to talk to him. She always felt that this man's emotional intelligence was hopeless. She had hinted to him to talk less several times before, just thinking that she was doing charity.
She firmly believed that Xin Jingli was not as she had guessed, and she was very good at judging people.
During this time, Xi Jiyu walked up to Xin Jingli and said, "You just raised the rose, so I can't raise the price anymore. Let's discuss it privately. I'm willing to pay double the price for DH's necklace, or any amount you like."
Zou Yue and Xu Ya's jaws dropped in shock.
They heard that DH's necklace was sold for 500 million, the highest price in the venue, and were curious about who was so generous. They didn't expect it to be Xin Jingli!
Zou Yue rubbed his eyes, thinking he'd misheard. That girl who didn't even have a ticket actually spent 500 million on a necklace? Impossible! She'd clearly gotten in by relying on her beauty and Zhang Shidao's favor! How could she possibly have so much money?
It's bad. He just didn't treat her well and treated her like a bad person. Then he will be...finished...
Seeing Zou Yue's expression out of control, sometimes surprised, sometimes frowning, and sometimes terrified, Xu Ya felt secretly happy.
Is this a slap in the face?
He was mean-spirited and thought that no one was following the right path. He looked down on and belittled others without verifying the facts. He didn't expect that others were so powerful. Zou Yue must be feeling very angry now!
Xu Ya straightened her shoulders inexplicably. She admired Xin Jingli in her heart. He was obviously capable, but when Zou Yue was deliberately sarcastic just now, she was unmoved and didn't take him seriously.
If it were someone else, they would have lost their temper long ago.
Is this what calmness means? No wonder she is so rich and has such an extraordinary style and bearing.
Xu Ya suddenly connected this person with [Li Pu De Mei Bian]. Before, [Li Pu De Mei Bian] was slandered but he didn't take it seriously.
She thought that [Li Pu De Mei Bian] should also have such appearance, exquisite, beautiful and elegant, standing out from the crowd.
"Two hundred yuan, transfer it, as a way to improve your moral character." Xu Ya curled her lips.
Zou Yue's expression was uglier than crying.
On this side, Xin Jingli was originally replying to Jingyun's message. They had agreed to have dinner at the Yunhui restaurant at 7 o'clock in the evening. It was already 6 o'clock, and considering the time spent on the road, she would definitely be late.
At this moment, Xi Jiyu came out to chat again and was even later.
However, Xi Jiyu's expression was not good, with the corners of his eyes drooping, as if he felt guilty about losing the necklace. Xin Jingli couldn't help but feel curious.
"Why did you have to buy it?"
This necklace is suitable for young women. Xi Jiyu is a man in his twenties, so he is definitely giving it as a gift. If he gives it to her, she doesn't need to buy it back, she can just pay directly.
Thinking of this, Xin Jingli's eyes widened. Could he... have other girls he liked? What a scumbag!
The system had said before that only by becoming a bootlicker can one be completely loyal. So, by this calculation, it is really possible that he has a hidden lover.
"To be honest, Mr. DH's first love was my grandmother. My grandmother's 80th birthday is coming soon, and I want to buy this necklace and give it to her."
What? Mr. DH's first love was Xi Jiyu's grandmother?
Then... if I buy this necklace back to Xi Jiyu's grandfather... does he have any objection?
Xin Jingli asked this.
Xi Jiyu just smiled: "Grandpa doesn't care, as long as grandma is happy, he is happy. Mr. DH had always been in contact with grandma during his lifetime, and our family knows it."
Xin Jingli:!!!
Good job.
Grandma is really good at this. This is the real way to tame a dog. The two men get along so well.
However, if she knew about the affair between Xi Jiyu's grandmother and Mr. DH, she would not argue with Xi Jiyu.
Now that the matter was clear, Xin Jingli waved his hand and said, "In that case, I'll give it to you."
"Send?" Xi Jiyu was surprised.
Five hundred million, for free?
Xin Jingli nodded and said, "I've already paid. I'll deliver it to my house when the time comes. You can just come and pick it up."
"But……"
Xin Jingli glanced at his watch and interrupted him, "I'm too late. I really have to go. I have an appointment. See you next time, Mr. Xi!"
The girl waved and hurried out, which made Xi Jiyu curl his lips.
He raised his hand and covered his heart.
Five hundred million. The Xi family is rich, but it is still difficult for them to give five hundred million away casually. She actually gave it away without any hesitation.
Plus, she had previously praised his beautiful smile to the so-called "Special Assistant Zhao," so she must be interested in him? At least have some affection for him, right?
Thinking of this, Xi Jiyu couldn't help but chuckle.
Xu Ya and Zou Yue saw Xi Jiyu's smile clearly, which gave them goosebumps.
Xi Jiyu, the cold-faced iceberg who never smiled at the negotiation table, was now smiling and looking lovingly at the direction where Bugatti left. Yingjun's face was filled with sharp eyes, looking eagerly.
It's over, he fell in love.
bite-
Not long after getting in the car, Xin Jingli heard a system notification in his head: [Detected that Xi Jiyu's favorability towards the host has changed from 85 to 91, converting 6 enhancement points. Currently, the host has a total of 31 enhancement points available.]
System: [Congratulations to the host for obtaining another skill card and a Midas Touch card!]
Another skill card, making two in total. I don’t know what to use it for at this stage.
Xin Jingli didn't care too much. After all, she was so focused on keeping the appointment that she stepped on the accelerator until it was smoking. It would be inappropriate to be late for the appointment.
At the same time, [Yunhui] restaurant.
[Yunhui] is a standard Chinese restaurant that serves all major cuisines. The retro wooden partitions are hung with room names corresponding to various cuisines.
In the compartment serving local cuisine, two handsome men sat facing each other. On the wooden table, white mist slowly rose from the tea bowls, and the fragrance of tea filled the air.
Tan Jingfan came to chat with Jingyun and was about to leave, but when he heard that Jingyun had a date with a girl later, he guessed that it was someone Jingyun liked, so he said he would stay and see.
"It's ten minutes past seven, Boss Jing, were you stood up?" Tan Jingfan picked up the teacup and clinked it with Jingyun.
Jingyun just smiled. She didn't expect that Tan Jingfan, who usually didn't fight or compete, would gossip so much about his feelings. It seemed that the [Chasing Her Alliance] group had indeed inspired his fighting spirit.
"She just sent me a message saying there was a traffic jam and it might take a while," Jingyun said.
Jingyun was actually glad that Xin Jingli came late, so he had time to send Tan Jingfan away.
Who knew that Tan Jingfan said that he had nothing to do tonight and could leave later, which clearly meant that he wanted to meet Xin Jingli.
Xin Jingli is beautiful and kind, what if her brother also falls in love with her? As the old saying goes, beware of fire, theft and brothers, so be careful.
"You're not going live tonight?" Jingyun asked.
Tan Jingfan could tell what Jingyun was worried about, but he had a special liking for [Li Pu De Mei Bian] and it was impossible for him to be moved by Jingyun's sweetheart. He just wanted to tease Jingyun.
"How can a live broadcast be as important as a brother's personal affairs?"
Jingyun: ...
While the two were chatting, Xi Jiyu sent a message in the [Chasing Her Alliance] group: [She just gave me a big gift, and she also praised my beautiful smile before. Everyone, it seems I can't treat you to this meal.]
Xi Jiyu's excitement was evident between the lines.
Xi Jiyu is not the kind of person who shows off. He didn't expect that a gift and just a few words would be mentioned in the group, which made others feel uncomfortable.
Xi Jiyu's progress is so fast, what should they do?
[It's just a gift, Mr. Xi wouldn't do that, right?] Qin Qing asked this question.
After all, he was the slowest in progress. He didn't even have a WeChat account and didn't know where to find her. Today was the agreed time to pick up the car. He had been in the store all day and hadn't seen her for a long time. He was very angry at the moment, and when he saw Xi Jiyu showing off, he felt even more sad.
Xi Jiyu wasn't surprised they'd ask this. He had already prepared a line and immediately sent it over: [A gift worth 500 million.]
Jingyun: [? ]
His first VIP only invested more than 10 million in the store.
Tan Jingfan: [? ? ]
His [Li Pu De Mi Bian] only gave him a reward of more than 50 million!
Qin Qing: [!!!]
That Aquaman only spent 300 million on a Bugatti! He bought it for himself, but Xi Jiyu's sweetheart gave him a gift worth 500 million!
Comparing yourself to others will make you feel nauseous.
Everyone in the group was like, "Wow, so arrogant!", their eyes filling the screen with jealousy.
Xi Jiyu was so excited after watching it.
It feels good to be envied by others!
Coincidentally, Tan Jingfan looked up and saw a limited edition Bugatti with consecutive numbers parked outside the window.
He had heard that Qin Qing had sold it before, so he took a picture and posted it in the group.
Qin Qing's eyes lit up: [Where is this?]
I actually saw her!
Jingyun: [My restaurant, what? I want to take back the car I sold?]
They didn’t know that the person Qin Qing liked was the buyer of the Bugatti.
Qin Qing was also reluctant to say it. After all, he had no idea about his fate and it would be bad to let others laugh at him.
Qin Qing: [No, I'm just curious.]
While typing, he hurriedly walked out of the 4S store, intending to ask her in person why she didn't pick up the car today.
Jingyun turned his head to look at the Bugatti outside the glass window. The owner was nowhere to be seen. He laughed and joked in the group that Qin Qing really liked the car and still cared about it after it was sold.
Coincidentally, I received a message from Xin Jingli on WeChat saying that he had arrived at the door.
Oh no, Tan Jingfan hasn’t left yet.
Just as Jingyun was about to think of a solution, Tan Jingfan stood up and said he was going to the bathroom.
Jingyun breathed a sigh of relief. There was still time to send Tan Jingfan away, so there was no need to rush.
He sent a message to Xin Jingli asking her to wait for him in another box.
On this side, after receiving Jingyun's message, Xin Jingli walked along the corridor to find the corresponding private room. After turning a corner, he bumped into the chest of a man dressed in a new Chinese style, and the pleasant smell of sandalwood filled his nostrils.
The man's voice was deep and familiar, with a hint of disbelief: "Miss Xin? What a coincidence."
