Cheng Yinuo was half lying on the sofa, exposing his white calves like lotus roots, holding a bowl of bright red cherries in his hand, chatting with Zhu Changan while eating.
"Do you want to hear the truth or lies?"
Cheng Yinuo flashed a pair of beautiful big eyes and showed an eccentric smile.
"The truth."
Zhu Changan flicked the cigarette ashes on his fingertips and said with a serious face: "Have you two become very close? You said yesterday that your first kiss was still there."
"What are you thinking about!"
Cheng Yinuo rolled his eyes at Zhu Changan in the video, "The truth I want to say is that compared to you, he is more like Prince Charming."
"Well……"
Zhu Changan was speechless at once, "The truth you want to tell me is that I am more like a toad, right?"
Cheng Yinuo held the cherry in his mouth and chuckled: "I didn't say, it's just that you are not as handsome or tall as him."
Zhu Changan made a face at Cheng Yinuo in the video: "Well, it seems that I am indeed a little behind Yushu Linfeng and Pan An."
Cheng Yinuo said: "To be honest, this Tang Aobai is one of the best men I have ever seen. Not only is he tall and handsome, with a star-like face and a model-like height, he is also good at chess, music, calligraphy and painting. He’s quite versatile.”
"Oh...your words put me under great pressure!"
Zhu Changan took a few puffs of cigarette, "Since Tang Aobai's appearance is so good, why didn't you fall in love with him? Is it because the family is poor? Isn't it right that he doesn't belong to the same family?"
When he said this, Zhu Changan's heart suddenly tightened.
To say that they are a good match, she and Cheng Yinuo seem to be even more incompatible. Will her parents agree to this marriage?
But don't end up trying to get nothing...
"Although Tang Aobai's family is not as rich as ours, his father is also a leading figure in the antiques industry, with a fortune of tens of billions."
"Tens of billions..."
Zhu Changan felt deeply hit, "My Miss Cheng, are you making this call to undermine my confidence? My passion and fighting spirit have been extinguished by your basin of water."
"That's too lacking in perseverance and confidence, isn't it?"
Cheng Yinuo spat the cherry seeds on the coffee table in front of him and said with a smile: "Although Tang Aobai is excellent, I have no feelings for him, so I refused his gift and bought the grape picture from you."
Zhu Changan suddenly turned from worry to joy: "Haha... It seems that I am more attractive. Since you don't like Tang Aobai, then tell him that the famous girl has an owner."
Cheng Yinuo said: "So, the reason I am calling you is to ask you to accompany me to this auction next Wednesday, and at the same time, see if there is an extra picture of grapes in the world, will it cause a butterfly effect?"
"Butterfly effect?" Zhu Changan looked puzzled, "What butterfly effect?"
Cheng Yinuo chuckled: "You are still an online writer, but you don't even know about the butterfly effect? To be honest, are you a street writer with only single-digit readers?"
"Tch...are you kidding? Your man has been writing online articles for three years and has written more than eight million words. How come you only have single-digit readers?"
Zhu Changan immediately sneered, "Of course I know about the butterfly effect. What I mean is to ask you what kind of butterfly effect will happen?"
Cheng Yinuo had already finished the bowl of cherries, wiped his mouth with a wet wipe and said:
"In my opinion, there are three possible outcomes: first, both of the two grape pictures are real. Second, ours is real, and Tang Aobai's becomes fake. Third, Tang Aobai's is real, Ours becomes fake.”
"Um……"
Zhu Changan held his chin and thought for a moment, then nodded and said: "An extra painting in the world for no reason may indeed trigger a butterfly effect, so let's wait and see."
"I will arrive in Lanling next Tuesday. Be prepared to accompany me to the auction." Cheng Yinuo said.
"Okay princess."
Zhu Changan nodded and immediately asked, "Isn't the auction held on Wednesday? Why did you arrive on Tuesday?"
"Go stay at your place."
"Really?"
Zhu Changan was overjoyed, but before he could be happy, he was poured cold water on his head.
Cheng Yinuo stood up, stretched his muscles, and said: "What I said about 'your place' is Tianxiapin Community, not your No. 66. I will live in my own No. 99."
"That's too foreign."
Zhu Changan hurriedly made a suggestion, "You finally come to Lanling. I must take care of your food and living, otherwise people will laugh at me for being stingy."
Cheng Yinuo smiled and said, "I may bring four or five bodyguards there. Do you have enough beds at your house?"
Zhu Changan scratched his head: "Then can we let them live in No. 99, and you live in my No. 66?"
"Smelly man!"
Cheng Yinuo snorted coldly, "Don't think about good things. Yesterday I asked you to take Fang Rou with you, and you pretended to be a gentleman with me. Now your true colors have been revealed, right? If you want to take advantage of your aunt, don't even think about it, just give up... …”
Just as Cheng Yinuo hung up the video call, Li Xiaobai called again.
"I would like to report to Mr. Zhu that our company's office building has been rented. Welcome to visit us for inspection."
"Send me the address. I have nothing to do today anyway."
After receiving the address from Li Xiaobai, Zhu Changan immediately got into his Maybach and drove out.
About 25 minutes later, he arrived at the office building called "Excellence Plaza".
"This place is not bad. It's not too far from my villa, only five or six kilometers away. If there's no traffic jam, I can get there in 15 minutes."
Zhu Changan muttered, parked the car and went straight to the 16th floor.
At this moment, Li Xiaobai and Yan Hao were negotiating a decoration project with the decoration company. When they saw Zhu Changan entering the door, they immediately introduced to the manager of the decoration company: "This is our boss."
The decoration manager immediately complained to Zhu Changan: "Hello boss, Mr. Li is bargaining too hard. We quoted 600,000 yuan for the decoration project, but he cut it to 400,000 yuan and he is still wrangling..."
"Li Xiaobai, what did you do? You made the decoration company no longer profitable, so you won't find another one?"
Zhu Changan glared and scolded Li Xiaobai.
It’s true that I, Zhu Changan, am rich now, but being rich doesn’t mean I’m stupid!
It is said that the profit of your decoration companies exceeds 50%. I only quoted 350,000 yuan for the sealing of my backyard. You can quote 600,000 yuan now. If it doesn't work, just replace it!
"Yes, yes, yes... what Mr. Zhu said is, if it doesn't work, let's find another one."
Li Xiaobai nodded and listened to the instructions. After Zhu Changan followed Yan Hao and left, he showed his hands to the decoration manager.
"You have to understand my difficulties. The capitalists are very worried now! The maximum price of this project is 400,000. If you can do it well, we will sign the contract. If you can't do it, I will have to replace it. I don't want to be fired because of this."
"Oh... what a wicked capitalist!"
The decoration manager regretted it so much that he complained to his boss for nothing. Isn't this trying to steal the skin of a tiger?
"Sign the contract, sign the contract, fixed price, 400,000."
After the contract was signed, Li Xiaobai whistled and swaggered to the next door, where Yan Hao was reporting to Zhu Changan on the division of accounts for "The Domineering Prince".
After ten days of release, this short drama has become a hit on major platforms, with current sales exceeding 50 million.
After deducting half of the platform's share, the investor still has an income of 25 million. According to the ratio of 49%, Zhu Changan should receive 12.25 million, before tax.
"I have reached an agreement with Gao Zhuoyue. She will transfer the money to your name, Mr. Zhu, before the weekend."
"Tsk tsk... This short drama has become so popular?"
Logically speaking, it should be a happy thing for the video to go viral, but it is not so pleasant for Gao Yuan to get a share of the money.
Li Xiaobai was filled with envy: "It seems that you are destined to be here. Even without the family fortune passed down to you by your ancestors, you are now a multi-millionaire."
