Chapter 717: Chapter 787: Just Like This
Ying Zheng patted his chest, then took two more sips of alcohol to steady his nerves. After a while, he looked steadily at Fang Yi and said, “Bro Fang, that’s not a joke you can make. The Fang Family, what are they? And what are we? You this…”
“Are you about to say that I’m being delusional?” Fang Yi said with a smile.
Ying Zheng didn’t reply, his face a picture of embarrassnt, silently agreeing.
Fang Yi laughed it off, not bothering to explain any further, “Alright, let’s not talk about that. I’m not necessarily out to destroy the Fang Family, there are too many reasons, too complicated to explain to you. The reason I brought you two here is just to have you two pay up.”
“ATMs?”
“If you want to see it that way, Old Ying, that’s not entirely wrong,” Fang Yi responded with a grin.
“But most of this money is from the Desire Sect.”
“It’s fine if you don’t have money, you can help by being an adviser. After all, you’ve got a knack for business.” Fang Yi decided for Ying Zheng without allowing for objections and then he turned to Rong Quan.
Rong Quan said, “Boss, don’t worry. Even if you asked for the whole Rong Group, it wouldn’t make bat an eyelid.”
Could his eyelid even twitch? His life was in the other man’s hands.
In the following ti, while en route to Tianjing Airport on the plane, Fang Yi discussed with them the issue of selecting a location for their stores. Fang Yi made a startling proposal, instructing Ying Zheng to take over ten storefronts in Tianjing upon arrival. Hearing this number, Ying Zheng almost jumped out of his seat.
“Holy shit!” Ying Zheng exclaid, “Bro Fang, you’re not ssing with , are you? Ten storefronts, that’s Tianjing we’re talking about. If we actually take them over, that would cost at least a couple of hundred million.”
“Money is not an issue. Just handle it, and once you’re done, I’ll treat you to a trip to Jade Pearl,” Fang Yi replied.
Ying Zheng looked sullen. He could entertain himself if he wanted, but this was pushing it too far. It wasn’t like climbing to heaven, but it was enough to make one scratch their head raw.
However, what Ying Zheng didn’t know was that Fang Yi suggested ten storefronts because he was confident that Ying Zheng could reach that target; his estimation was very accurate.
Aside from setting that goal for Ying Zheng, Fang Yi didn’t elaborate, only telling Ying Zheng that this was just the first step, and there was more to co.
In the evening, when the plane arrived in Tianjing, Fang Yi went separate ways with the two. Ying Zheng and Rong Quan took a taxi to leave, while Fang Yi waited outside the airport.
About half an hour later, a pure white Maserati slowly pulled up in front of Fang Yi, attracting many glances. Even though this was the capital, luxury cars were not a common sight on the streets.
Fang Yi opened the car door and sat down in the passenger seat. As soon as he sat down, a fragrant scent wafted into his nose.
In the driver’s seat, a beautiful woman was looking over at him, a hint of displeasure in her beautiful eyes, but Fang Yi pretended not to notice and instead took a few extra glances at her.
She had changed her hairstyle, cutting her black hair into a bob, and there were two round earrings on her shiny earlobes.
Fang Yi couldn’t help but smile, “Miss Lin Xueru, it hasn’t been long since I last saw you, and you’ve beco even more beautiful.”
Lin Xueru snorted coldly, “None of your business.”
Fang Yi replied, “But you are the slave I’ve set my sights on; how could it not concern ?”
Hearing the word ‘slave,’ a surge of humiliation flooded Lin Xueru’s heart. She wanted to resist, but she felt a deep sense of powerlessness. This man seed as insurmountable as a mountain, as unreachable as the sky.
In several encounters with him, Lin Xueru had always been defeated.
“Where to!” Lin Xueru said icily. She planned to drop Fang Yi at his destination and then leave as quickly as possible.
“To your house,” Fang Yi said with a smile.
“What?” Lin Xueru, who was about to drive off, suddenly turned her head to look at Fang Yi with wide eyes.
Fang Yi, with an unchanged smile, said, “You might not have heard clearly because your hair was covering your ears. Let repeat, to your house.”
Lin Xueru exclaid angrily, “You must be joking.”
“I’m not joking,” Fang Yi replied.
Indeed, Fang Yi wasn’t joking; he didn’t have a residence in Tianjing, no place to stay, so it wasn’t feasible to keep staying at hotels. When Fang Yi had called Lin Xueru earlier to pick him up, he already had this idea in mind.
Moreover, Fang Yi really had his eye on Lin Xueru, not for any other reason but because Lin Xueru was a fad beauty—Jade Pearl! Just for that reason, Fang Yi had set his sights on Lin Xueru.
Such a famous beauty, now that he had encountered her, how could Fang Yi not pluck her? His previous pressing of Lin Xueru was not only to obtain her body, but also to win her heart.
To just covet the body, that act was of a petty thief; to win both body and heart, that was the way of a dandy. Besides, capturing her heart would unlock even more positions, why not go for it?
Frustrated and annoyed, Lin Xueru clearly saw that Fang Yi wasn’t joking. As they locked eyes, Lin Xueru eventually conceded defeat. Against the shaless Fang Yi, she couldn’t be even more shaless.
Reluctantly starting the car, Lin Xueru drove away from the airport. On the road, she contemplated crashing the car into the side barriers or a big truck, but after considering her options, Lin Xueru valued her life too much to go through with it.
Lin Xueru drove to a villa area in the city, parked the car, and led the way. As they reached the front door, she suddenly rembered sothing and turned to go back.
However, she moved too quickly and ended up bumping right into Fang Yi’s arms. Fortunately, Fang Yi had a stable lower body and didn’t fall over from the collision. Seizing the opportunity, he hugged Lin Xueru and said in an exaggerated strange tone, “Whoa, Miss Lin, you don’t have to get cozy with right now. It wouldn’t look good if soone saw us.”
