Chapter 299
Sui Yi and Zhang Wei: "...."
Through a distance of five ters..
Eventually, Sui Yi made a decision, "Eastern, you co!"
Nas like Dongfang Bubai, or The Invincible East were appellations Sui Yi had never considered, so she simply referred to her as Eastern.
Then.. Eastern began training Zhang Wei with pleasure in the villa’s backyard.
Sui Yi watched once and didn’t look again.
Her conscience felt guilty.
However, she hadn’t anticipated soone would visit that day.
As soon as the doorbell rang, because Eastern and Zhang Wei were in the backyard, Sui Yi happened to be sitting on the sofa reading a book. Hearing the sound, she walked over to open the door, and as the door opened.
"It seems my arrival has taken Miss Sui by surprise," he said in a deep and magnetic voice, like a cello, yet filled with an icy aggressiveness.
Sui Yi glanced at the other party and opened the door wider, "It’s alright, please co in, Mr. Xiao."
Xiao Xianting nodded his head, entered, and Sui Yi noticed he hadn’t brought an assistant or retinue.
After entering, he took off his coat and changed shoes, all done slowly and deliberately, as if this place were his own ho—or perhaps it was because Sui Yi didn’t act like the host, failing to offer attentive service.
Was she expected to personally take the coat he shed or fetch slippers for him?
Sui Yi rely poured him a glass of water.
Seemingly aware that he preferred water over other beverages.
Xiao Xianting, already seated, surveyed the living room. He naturally knew early on that this place was an impulse buy Sui Yi had barely lived in for half a month. Although it was originally a deluxe version, everything seed unchanged, yet Xiao Xianting always felt it was different.
The warm and bright sunlight streaming through the floor-to-ceiling windows cast upon the person who poured a cup of tea and walked over..
It must be because of the person.
"Mr. Xiao visiting , it couldn’t be just to confirm whether or not I’ll return to Provincial City," Sui Yi sat down and sipped her tea, looking at her guest.
This person was sharper than most, like a wolf, or perhaps an eagle.
Sui Yi didn’t enjoy interactions with such people, but that didn’t hinder her admiration for intelligent individuals.
"What if I say it is?" countered Xiao Xianting.
"Then I should be seeing you off," Sui Yi said indifferently.
You’ve seen it already, haven’t you?
I’m still here.
Xiao Xianting took just a second to judge whether she truly ant to send him away, but confird in the next second that such a composed and serene person wouldn’t do sothing so impolite.
Both remained silent and fell into silence.
A mont passed.
"I thought Miss Sui would inquire about my purpose," he said.
"I also thought Mr. Xiao would get straight to the point."
"You’re preparing to mine," Xiao Xianting indeed got straight to the point, but it was akin to Mount Tai.
Most people would either panic and show a change of expression or be crushed outright.
Sui Yi simply lowered her eyes to drink tea, "And then?"
Xiao Xianting noticed a ray of light resting on her long eyelashes, unmoving.
"How much for a share?"
A share ant ten percent, right? This person clearly wouldn’t be content with just one percent.
Yet the information was so swift; her connections in Xinjiang made her sowhat worried.
Sui Yi looked at him and answered straightforwardly, "Not possible."
"None at all?"
"Yes."
"Why?"
"I don’t like others intervening."
Others...
"Don’t Flower Demon and the others count?"
"They don’t."
"In business, Miss Sui, you are not a qualified businessman."
"Yes."
And that was it.
Then Mr. Xiao seamlessly threw out another sentence.
"So when will you return to Provincial City?"
"...."
The subject change was sowhat abrupt, causing Sui Yi to frown slightly as she looked at him.
She wouldn’t think about how the business negotiation techniques, for which Xiao Xianting was known as a cheetah and a wolf, had all gone up in smoke after her simple affirmative response, or had been stillborn.
And Mr. Xiao’s swift reflexes allowed him a divine pivot and a clever response...
Then silence fell again.
Sui Yi didn’t answer him, seemingly telling him... you’ve crossed the line.
Then Xiao Xianting lowered his head to drink water, softening the sharp edge in his eyes, and his words beca gentler.
"It’s getting late, I shall take my leave," he said.
As he rose, Sui Yi also stood up to see him to the entryway, watching him don his coat and shoes with rehearsed motions..
After a few steps, the door behind softly closed with a click.
Xiao Xianting turned, clenched his fist, his brows knotted.
He had been rejected... twice.
What’s more... how could he have blurted out that statent, such a blunder!
Mr. Xiao left with a darkened face, and as he walked past the side of the villa, he overheard voices from the backyard. As if possessed by a ghost, he walked over to have a look...
What he saw was a stunningly handso man who could make all South Korean Oppas pale in comparison, along with a robust and austere man oozing masculinity.
Turn around, get in the car, close the door, drive off, and leave— all in one fluid motion!

Five days later, once Yang Gaodan had confird that all the preparations were in place, Sui Yi boarded the flight back to Provincial City. She contacted Elder Tang and asked him to join forces with Yu Quan and Elder Han to invest one hundred million for a two percent stake, while Gong Jiu and Flower Demon would each invest two hundred million for a five percent stake each.
Hey, you might say, Sui Yi’s enterprise isn’t even worth two billion in total, and a one hundred million investnt is only for a two percent share— isn’t that scamming people?
But what you might not know is that Elder Tang and the others actually felt like Sui Yi was looking out for them with this allocation.
After all, it was Sui Yi who had laid out the groundwork. The control was in her hands, and the original shares were all hers to begin with. These days, while capital is most important, if you don’t find the right spot, where can you even invest your money? What if it all just drifts away?
To find a business like Sui Yi’s, with a vein that was guaranteed to turn a profit, was sothing Elder Tang and the others couldn’t find even if they searched with lanterns. That’s why they were secretly thrilled. If Sui Yi hadn’t been insistent, they would have thought even the two percent stake was too hot to handle.
Of course, this was under the premise that the surface survey of the mine indicated its contents were worth close to twenty billion... US Dollars.
Considering this, their investnt could yield returns of six to seven tis in the future!
What kind of concept is an investnt return of six to seven tis on hundreds of millions of capital?
If they hadn’t been tight on funds to pull out of their current investnts and didn’t want to take too much advantage of Sui Yi, they would have truly liked to invest several billion...
After the deal was agreed upon, contracts still needed to be signed. Gong Jiu, Elder Tang, and the others had to send people to Xinjiang to handle it.
Since Yang Gaodan had established an investnt company in Sui Yi’s na, which was affiliated with Sui Tang Company, and had been operating for a month, they now had the legal leverage to sign the contracts with confidence.
But what really troubled Yang Gaodan about Sui Yi was that she was soone who ant exactly what she said.
When she said she’d let go, she really let go...
For instance, at this mont, she was casually flipping through a magazine in her airplane seat...
Zhang Wei was sitting behind her, with Eastern Lady by his side.
Once the two of them had taken their seats, the atmosphere in the entire airplane had started to fluctuate unusually... The flight attendants were bustling around more actively.
Because...
That handso man really was... a national calamity.
And the one sitting next to him was as well...
To sum up, they were absolutely a sight for sore eyes, and nurous pot-bellied bosses cradled their business cards, itching to strike up a conversation with Sui Yi, who was sitting by the aisle... Then, a glance from Eastern Lady ca their way.
Hiss hiss hiss~~
The business cards were crushed, and the bosses turned their heads away in disappointnt, yet their eyes kept wandering back...
A tall and handso young man directly took the seat next to the aisle by Sui Yi, extending his hand to her.
"Hi, beauty... eting is fate," he said.
Since he had reached out his hand, Sui Yi closed her magazine and looked up at the person in front of her.
The young man’s smile deepened when he saw Sui Yi’s face, and he was about to continue speaking...
When suddenly, an oppressive shadow lood over from the side.
Towering above.
"You’re in the wrong seat," the chilling voice said.
Um... Mr. Xiao Xianting’s presence was not sothing ordinary people could withstand. The young man’s face changed, and he awkwardly stood up, clapping his hands, he continued to smile at Sui Yi, "Beauty, I’ll head over there for now, but give a way to contact you..."
"The plane is about to take off," Xiao Xianting’s words completely silenced the young man’s voice.
With no choice, he had to leave.
Then Mr. Xiao took the seat.
Sui Yi glanced at him and continued reading her magazine.
Silent...
Until an hour after the plane had taken off and the movie was coming to an end...
"Aren’t you afraid I’ll trip you up?"
"Mr. Xiao is a qualified businessman," Sui Yi responded.
"But I am also a man," he added.
That statent held so intrigue... Several nearby passengers perked up their ears.
Sui Yi’s hand paused mid-page turn and before she could speak, a chilly voice ca from the side.
"Those who set traps... just get rid of them," said the voice.
Instantly, a chill perated the air, and the entire space fell silent.
From then on, there was no more talking.
——————
At the airport, Xiao Xianting watched the three people leave and his assistant ventured, "Boss, I think that person was definitely a woman."
"How can you tell?"
"With Miss Sui’s personality... she wouldn’t let a man get that close to her."
"Close?" Xiao Xianting glanced coldly.
Which eye of yours saw that?
The assistant shivered and followed Xiao Xianting’s long strides away...
It’s troubleso having a boss with a fierce temper and long legs... Short-legged folks like myself can’t handle it.
As they left, a group of people also erged from an exit not too far away. Suddenly, the airport was abuzz with excitent as a large crowd surged towards one spot, waving their sticks in the air...
"Qinghan, Qinghan, what are you looking at? Hurry up, or we’ll get surrounded..."
An assistant called to Pu Qinghan, who finally snapped back to reality, smiled, and replied, "Okay."
A mont later, she boarded the company nanny van that ca to pick her up. While buckling her seatbelt, the assistant asked, "What were you staring at just now? You seed completely engrossed."
Pu Qinghan ran a hand through the hair falling over her cheek, "I saw soone... sort of familiar."
That wasn’t sothing you’d expect to hear from a star at the height of her fa.
"Co on, you’re already a big star, yet you were so distracted by soone else? Was it so handso guy? I did see a very attractive man earlier, that presence... Jie Jie~~ truly a classic, domineering CEO vibe~~"
"Is that so... I saw a woman," Pu Qinghan said.
"A woman?"
"Yes, a woman... one very beautiful... and very mysterious woman" (To be continued. If you like this work, please head over to Qidian (qidian) to cast your recomndation votes and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile readers, please go to m.qidian to continue reading.)
