Mother Su had left of her own volition, temporarily not wanting to get involved in the matter, which caused Sun Shu a bit of disappointnt, for he knew his aunt's personality well. With her help, breaking up Qin Fang and Su Xiaoxiao would have been much easier.
When Mother Su had inquired about Qin Fang's household registration, Sun Shu just so happened to be away, and naturally, he didn't hear what Qin Fang had said, nor was he aware that Mother Su was quite pleased with Qin Fang.
If he'd known this, he wouldn't have been so optimistic…
With Mother Su gone, Qin Fang and Su Xiaoxiao, naturally paired together, moved closer, while Sun Shu and Li Yao ford another couple, leaving Fang Tong suddenly the odd one out.
Sun Shu naturally couldn't let him be idle and imdiately threw a aningful glance at Fang Tong, signaling him to take the initiative…
"I am Fang Tong, may I know how to address this friend?"
Fang Tong was also a cunning individual; one glance from Sun Shu and he imdiately understood the signal. Moreover, considering Su Xiaoxiao was indeed a remarkable beauty, he was sowhat moved.
Then he assessed his rival, Qin Fang—aside from wearing similar attire, in terms of looks, Qin Fang was far behind, not even on the sa level. With this in mind, he felt he could easily crush Qin Fang.
Not to ntion, with Su Xiaoxiao's cousin, Sun Shu, in his corner, it was like having the ho field advantage. If he couldn't handle this opponent under these circumstances, it would be a blow to Fang Tong's face…
"No need for formalities, my na is Qin Fang, hello…"
Qin Fang politely introduced himself and took the initiative to shake hands with Fang Tong.
"Hello…"
Fang Tong too wore a smile and shook hands with Qin Fang.
As their hands clasped together, for so reason Fang Tong felt impulsive. Seeing Qin Fang's sowhat pale and delicate palm, a mischievous smile crept over his lips, and he all of a sudden increased his grip…
"Hmph! I am the top practitioner of Taekwondo at Yangcheng University, with four years dedicated to the martial art. My strength allows to split five or six planks with a single palm… prepare to cry!"
Fang Tong was born in Shenzhou; his father was one of the pioneers in reforming and opening up China, becoming one of the first to accumulate wealth. Now, his net worth was significant, totaling several hundred million yuan.
Although this fortune was not considered remarkable in Shenzhou, in a second-tier city like Yangcheng, it was a different story.
Fathers earn, sons spend—that's the truest portrayal of the lives of the current generation of rich second-generations. Fang Tong was slightly better; while spending money, he also pondered over how to make money…
Here, he had the good fortune to acquaint himself with Sun Shu, Yangcheng's number one Young Master. Due to their senior-junior relationship at university, they beca close, prompting Fang Tong to harbor so ulterior motives.
Having learned of Su Xiaoxiao's identity—an extraordinary beauty who was also Sun Shu's cousin, and whose father reportedly held a not insignificant estate in Sucheng...
With a girl of such conditions, securing her would indeed have many advantages. It was for this reason that Fang Tong had to resort to so irregular tactics to undermine his opponent.
Feeling the strength transmitted through the handgrip, Qin Fang slightly knitted his brows, looking at the smiling, handso young man across him with a flash of helplessness in his eyes.
Su Xiaoxiao didn't care much for this Fang Tong. Given her identity as an assassin and the lack of security that her profession entailed, most n wouldn't catch her eye. Only n like Qin Fang seed reliable...
As for whether a man's face was handso, that really wasn't important. Su Xiaoxiao had neutered more than a handful of handso n, so why would she care about the one before her?
Yet she watched with interest, seemingly eager to see how these rivals in love would compete... But seeing Fang Tong resort to such a low-level tactic, even she couldn't help but snicker.
Even the Butcher, Explosive Bear Locke—a formidable figure—had been brutally defeated by Qin Fang; Fang Tong, with his slender build, wasn't even in the sa league.
If it ca to a contest of strength with Fang Tong, it's not just Qin Fang who would win easily—Su Xiaoxiao herself could likely secure victory with little effort... Despite Fang Tong practicing Taekwondo for years, that was simply useless!
So...
Su Xiaoxiao smiled, genuinely amused.
The others didn't quite grasp the aning behind her smile. Only Qin Fang, who knew the reason, showed little expression on his face, maintaining his usual deanor.
Qin Fang actually found it quite ridiculous. Although Fang Tong saw him as a rival, Qin Fang never really considered Fang Tong as an opponent on the sa level. Yet, Fang Tong, unfortunately, chose to play such underhanded tricks on him.
Admittedly, Fang Tong did possess a bit of strength and a common person might really suffer from it, but against Qin Fang, it was as if the old man was eating arsenic—simply tired of living.
Qin Fang had already reached Level 5 by now, and his 25 strength was truly terrifying. Not to ntion, he had absorbed the Spiritual Energy from the Golden Dragon Saliva last night, further enhancing his body... Although not quite to the exaggerated extent of tenfold, a twofold increase was the very least.
His defense was now at 8 points, this being a uniform defense throughout his body, with so areas slightly higher and others slightly lower, but it generally averaged to this defense. Doubled, it was a 16 defense, making him truly tough and resilient...
His strength had also seen so increase, not in terms of data, but in the force unleashed by his True Qi.
But regardless of strength or defense, Fang Tong's bit of force could only amount to a re tickle to Qin Fang...
"What goes around cos around!"
Since the other party had been so 'courteous', naturally, Qin Fang couldn't be too impolite either. With just a tiny bit of effort in his hand, he saw Fang Tong's sowhat smiling face suddenly turn pale, his hand looking as though it was about to twist...
It was only because Qin Fang didn't continue for too long, pinching briefly before imdiately releasing, for with his strength, crushing Fang Tong's hand would have been a trivial matter.
Fang Tong was also too quick to feel smug. As soon as Qin Fang exerted his force, Fang Tong imdiately felt as if his hand were being crushed by a weight of a thousand pounds, as if all the bones in that hand had been completely shattered. Almost involuntarily, he wanted to withdraw his hand, but he couldn't muster any strength to resist.
It was only because Qin Fang quickly let go that he finally got relief. His other hand quickly grasped the injured one, rubbing it anxiously for fear of any issues arising, his complexion indescribably awful.
"Young Master Fang is really too enthusiastic, making feel quite overwheld…"
Qin Fang said with a chuckle, seemingly truly overwheld, yet glancing at Fang Tong's incredibly sour expression, it seed not quite the case.
Fang Tong had no choice but to bite his tongue because, after all, it was he who had initiated trouble with Qin Fang. Had he not played foul first, he wouldn't have suffered this way. With Qin Fang saying this, he could only force a smile, his expression on his face indescribably odd.
Sun Shu, however, was unaware of the little drama that had unfolded between Qin Fang and Fang Tong, only sensing that Fang Tong didn't seem able to muster any authority when facing Qin Fang.
"This isn't good…"
With Sun Shu's background and experience, he had seen a fair bit of the world. Seeing the situation, he knew he had to intervene.
"This Fang Tong usually seems so competent, right? Why's he beco such a weakling at this critical mont?"
He inwardly complained non-stop, becoming sowhat dissatisfied with Fang Tong. It was definitely not practical to substitute soone else at the last minute. Although he knew quite a few impressive young n, he was introducing a boyfriend to Su Xiaoxiao, and naturally wanted to recomnd soone reliable, of whom there were few.
"Fang Tong, how's that matter you ntioned to last ti progressing? To what extent have things developed…"
Sun Shu, making his move, couldn't be too obvious about it. Su Xiaoxiao was his cousin, and their relationship was really good. He didn't want to ruin it, so he approached the matter with considerable caution.
Upon hearing this, Fang Tong was first stunned, then his eyes brightened, imdiately understanding what Sun Shu ant. Confidence returned to his face with his smile.
"Young Master Sun, the project's progressing very smoothly. We are currently discussing the specifics with the other party, and I believe we'll be able to reach a cooperation agreent soon…"
The two appeared to be discussing serious business, their tone quite formal, even though they were just chatting.
"That's good. So, by your estimate, how much profit do you think we can make from this project?"
Sun Shu didn't look over at Qin Fang at all, chatting with Fang Tong with a cheerful smile...
This was for real. Fang Tong had curried favor with Sun Shu, and had specifically contacted a project from Shenzhou for them to collaborate on, with the profits to be split fairly between them in the end.
The project wasn't particularly large; the expected investnt was about forty million plus, and after deducting specific costs and expenditures, the final profit was estimated to be around five or six million. Split between the two, it would be about three million each.
In truth, the two were acting as middlen, and the actual capital invested was not much, estimated to be around one or two million. Having such an inco was indeed considerable.
When Sun Shu said this, he gave Fang Tong a aningful glance, obviously with an implication… Su Xiaoxiao's mother was not far away, just happening to hear this conversation, her ears pricked up eavesdropping!
"The profit is just average, about ten million or so. Splitting it between us, we'd only have a bit more than five million in our pockets at the end..."
Fang Tong naturally caught on quickly, his face showing no change, even putting on an unsatisfied deanor as he spoke. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welco to co to Qidian (qidian) to vote for the recomndation ticket, monthly ticket. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
