"Ten million? Haha, that’s a lot of money."
Jiang Chen gave a faint smile and glanced up at Hua Feng’er.
Hua Feng’er imdiately held her head high, revealing her fair and slender neck, like a proud white swan looking disdainfully at Jiang Chen.
She didn’t believe that Jiang Chen could remain unmoved by the ten million.
But the next second, her expression froze.
Jiang Chen picked up the check and with a slight force of his right hand—
"Rip..."
The ten-million check in Jiang Chen’s hand was, once again, torn to shreds.
"You..."
Hua Feng’er glared at Jiang Chen, her chest heaving with anger as she roared, "Jiang Chen, don’t think you can threaten us with this.
I’m telling you, I know about your Yi Chen Company. Although your company is sowhat sizeable, it’s nothing in our eyes.
Especially that Sky Venerate City of yours. Our Xincheng is already in the planning stages, and if we withdraw our investnt, the value of your Sky Venerate City will plumt.
And if we withdraw because of you, the old masters of Dingjing won’t let you off the hook. When the ti cos, your Yi Chen will go bankrupt!"
Hua Feng’er threatened loudly.
"Are you done?" Jiang Chen asked indifferently, looking up.
"..."
Hua Feng’er was taken aback, as she could not see any fear on Jiang Chen’s face.
Jiang Chen sneered and pointed towards the door, "If you’re done, then get lost."
"You..."
Hua Feng’er’s face changed, and just as she was about to scold, Xuan Long stepped forward and picked up Hua Feng’er and Secretary Sun, just like before, only this ti he was carrying two chickens, and threw them directly out of the villa.
"Miss, what should we do?"
Secretary Sun’s face looked ready to cry. A grown man being thrown out twice like this was a first in his life.
Hua Feng’er was also gnashing her teeth in rage, when had she ever been subjected to such treatnt?
"Bastard!"
Hua Feng’er stomped her foot in fury, glowering at the villa for a while before she roared, "Let’s go. I’ll make sure that Jiang Chen cos to beg on his knees to treat my father’s illness!"
After saying that, she dragged Secretary Sun away from there.
...
Early the next morning, Yè Yùwǎn hurried to the villa.
"Jiang Chen, Uncle is pressuring to go on a blind date again, co with !" As soon as she entered, Yè Yùwǎn stated her purpose and then grabbed Jiang Chen’s hand, intending to head to the door. In her eyes, Jiang Chen would surely agree.
But when she tugged at him, Jiang Chen remained unmoved.
Yè Yùwǎn was taken aback and turned her head in surprise to look at Jiang Chen, while Gong Lin was also puzzled as she looked his way.
"Yu Wan." In Jiang Chen’s eyes, a struggling expression flashed by, before turning resolute.
He gently pushed her hand away from his and said with a light laugh, "You’re not getting any younger, it’s ti to find a proper boyfriend. Since the Ye Family wants you to go on a blind date, they’re your family, and they surely won’t harm you. Just go on the date, and it’s a good chance to see if you like the person. If you do, maybe we’ll be drinking to your wedding soon enough!"
"Jiang Chen, you..." Yè Yùwǎn was stunned, staring dumbfounded at Jiang Chen, her face a mask of shock.
Gong Lin was also taken aback, completely bewildered.
"Go ahead, make yourself look pretty!" Jiang Chen urged again.
Ye Yuwan felt a surge of extre grievance in her heart, and tears instantly filled her eyes, "You, you want to go on a blind date? You’re advising to go on a blind date?"
"Yu Wan..."
Slap!
Jiang Chen wanted to persuade her further, but Ye Yuwan slapped him across the face, crying out, "Jiang Chen, I hate you!"
No sooner had she spoken than Ye Yuwan ran out of the villa, crying.
"Yu..."
Jiang Chen opened his mouth, but in the end, he did not call out.
"Jiang Chen, do you understand what you’re saying?" Gong Lin frowned at Jiang Chen, speaking with utmost seriousness, "Do you know how Yu Wan feels about you?"
Jiang Chen sighed, "I know, and it’s precisely because I know that I said that."
Gong Lin was taken aback and looked at Jiang Chen with confusion, "Why is that?"
"I don’t want to hold Yu Wan back because of myself. I’ve already delayed you, delayed Jing Yi, and if I delay Yu Wan too, I..." Jiang Chen’s face darkened as he shook his head.
Gong Lin’s expression changed, suddenly becoming agitated, "What do you an by ’can’t delay’? You’ve already delayed! Do you think by keeping your distance from Yu Wan now, she will stay away from you? Do you think that’s possible? Her heart has already been filled by you; she can’t make room for anyone else! We’ve already agreed that once Jing Yi wakes up, we would seek her consent for us all to be with you together!"
"What?"
Jiang Chen was dumbfounded, staring at Gong Lin in astonishnt.
"Jiang Chen, you’re a bastard. If you can’t bring Yu Wan back, you, you, you’re just a bastard!" Gong Lin couldn’t bear to say harsher words, so she repeated herself, only able to call Jiang Chen a bastard!
As soon as she finished speaking, Gong Lin turned and went upstairs.
Jiang Chen dumbly watched Gong Lin’s retreating back, montarily at a loss for how to react.
"You idiot! Really, so stupid, don’t say you’re my son when you’re out. Hurry, go bring Yu Wan back." Shen Xiaoqin now ca out from the kitchen, poked Jiang Chen’s forehead with her finger, and then turned and headed upstairs into Gong Lin’s room.
"I..." Jiang Chen was stunned, unsure of what to do.
Suddenly, the crisp sound of a cell phone ringing startled Jiang Chen awake. He shook his head and took out his phone to answer, "Hello, President Lin."
"Mr. Jiang, your Knight XV has been found. It’s currently parked outside the Le Char Club. Do we need to arrest the person who stole it?" Lin Bingrui’s voice ca through the headset.
Yesterday, after Ye Jianying and his mother drove away his Knight XV, he had asked Lin Bingrui to help find it, and now it was finally located.
"No need, I’ll go there myself!"
Jiang Chen knew that Ye Jianying and his mother were here for Yu Wan’s arranged date, and just now Yu Wan was trying to take him to the place of the date. Now that the car was at the club, Ye Jianying and his mother and Yu Wan must surely be there too.
Now, he needed to go there himself.
After hanging up the phone and taking a glance at the staircase, Jiang Chen turned and walked out of the villa.
He hailed a taxi and headed straight for Le Char Club.
"Mr. Jiang." Just as he got out of the taxi, a man approached Jiang Chen.
Jiang Chen knew this was the person Lin Bingrui sent to watch his car, and he nodded slightly, "Where is she?"
"In private room number three," the man said quietly. "Need to bring so brothers with you for backup?"
Jiang Chen shook his head slightly, "No need, I can manage on my own!"
After giving instructions, Jiang Chen walked into Le Char Club.
Arriving at the door of private room number three, Jiang Chen glanced at the room’s number plate and kicked the door.
A dull thud sounded as he kicked the room’s door open.
"Who is it?"
A low shout ca from inside the room. Jiang Chen stepped into the room, glanced around, and then paused.
