Zhou Shiyan took the call and went to the study without looking back all the way.
Jiang Huai followed him into the gate of the mansion. When she thought of his threats from time to time and the person on the other end of the phone, she stamped her feet angrily.
Seeing her like this, Uncle Qi secretly smiled while handing her slippers.
"Uncle Qi, what are you laughing at?"
Uncle Qi smiled kindly and said, "Miss, you don't know the young master yet. If you tell him well and act like a baby, what else can he refuse to agree to?"
In the past, this might have been true, but now she was unwilling to act coquettishly at him.
When she walked to the study door, Zhou Shiyan had already hung up the phone.
He put down his phone and looked up, and saw someone standing at the door, looking at him with a sad and angry look.
Zhou Shiyan wanted to laugh, but held it back.
"Come in and tell me if you have anything to do, and go to bed if you have nothing else to do."
Jiang Huai hesitated for a while and then walked in.
"You can set a price. At worst, I can buy Hexi Manor. As a businessman, there should be no more direct benefit than real money."
When Zhou Shiyan heard this, he raised his eyebrows, nodded in a perfunctory manner, and then turned on the computer and started to handle official business.
That way, it seemed like he didn't take her words seriously.
"Zhou Shiyan, I'm talking to you, do you hear me?"
He raised his eyes to look at her, and after a while, he said, "Call me brother, no matter how big or small you are."
Jiang Huai didn't expect that Zhou Shiyan would just say this after holding it in for a long time.
"There is no family affection in business, that's what you said. Come on, make a price." She suppressed her anger.
Jiang Huai was clearly urging him to offer a price, but the end of his words sounded like he was being coquettish.
There is no family affection in business. This is indeed what he said.
On the eve of the transfer of the candy factory that year, Jiang Huai begged him with tears in his arms to keep the candy factory. While wiping her tears, he said: "There is no family affection in business, and consumers will not let it happen because of this." If it’s dad’s sugar factory, just buy one more pack, and your opponent won’t be a bit soft just because it’s dad’s sugar factory. Brother knows you can’t bear to part with it, so brother will do his best to keep it, okay?”
But the next day, he transferred the candy factory.
Probably from that time on, Jiang Huai became more and more distant from him.
He came back to his senses and said expressionlessly: "One hundred million."
When Jiang Huai heard this, his eyes suddenly widened, and his beautiful peach blossom eyes were full of surprise and complaint.
He lowered his eyes, fearing that she would notice the success in his eyes.
He did it on purpose, otherwise how could he keep her?
"Are you serious? If I spend 100 million, you will sell Hexi Manor to me?"
Zhou Shiyan raised his eyes to look at her, surprised by the indifference in her tone.
"You have?"
"I do." Jiang Huai was a little anxious and revealed his secret without much thought.
"Okay, then two hundred million."
What, then two hundred million! What does he think this is? Just talk and money will be born on its own!
"Zhou Shiyan, you are shameless! How can you sit down and raise prices like this!"
Zhou Shiyan raised his eyebrows: "Forget it if you don't like it, I don't really want to sell it."
After saying that, he added: "From now on, if you call Zhou Shiyan, the base price will be increased by 10 million. You can weigh it yourself."
After all, the little white rabbit was no match for the old fox. Jiang Huai finally returned to the room angrily.
Early the next morning, the two met at the restaurant.
In the mere moment their eyes met, Zhou Shiyan could feel the resentment in her eyes that she was unhappy with him but couldn't get rid of him.
He curled up the corners of his lips calmly, discovering the joy of teasing her for the first time.
In the past, Jiang Huai was like a little jellyfish, shedding tears at every turn. Although 60% of the human body is water, he once thought that the water content in Jiang Huai's body should reach 99%. Otherwise, how could she withstand her crying?
Despite this, every time Jiang Huai cried, he was still in a hurry and could only pamper her.
But something is different about her coming back this time. She doesn't like to cry anymore, but she likes to get angry.
It's quite interesting to see her dancing.
Zhou Shiyan sat aside and ate breakfast elegantly, looking sanctimonious.
Uncle Qi brought breakfast to Jiang Huai and reported: "Miss, Miss Xie Yao called early in the morning and said she would pick you up later."
Jiang Huai had just returned to China and was not yet ready to live in China. He didn't even have a domestic mobile phone number, so Xie Yao could only call home.
She came to pick up Jiang Huai today to handle various daily necessities and take a look at the house.
When Zhou Shiyan heard this, his voice dropped slightly: "Xie Yao and Chen Yu have only been married for a few days, and you have the nerve to disturb others all the time."
Just when Jiang Huai wanted to leave him alone, Zhou Shiyan continued, "If you need anything, tell me. It's easier than asking Xie Yao."
"Okay, then you return the manor to me first."
These three sentences about never leaving the manor gave Zhou Shiyan a headache.
But the more this happened, the less he dared to hand over the manor to her.
Zhou Shiyan glanced at her, "You didn't say you wanted to buy it yesterday, so you're giving up now?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the doorbell of the mansion rang. It was Xie Yao who came.
She came after breakfast, and seeing that Jiang Huai was still having breakfast, she sat aside and waited for her in a familiar manner.
There are three people in the restaurant who are very different from each other.
Xie Yao was sitting aside and waiting while browsing entertainment news, when an interview video of Ren Mengdi suddenly popped up.
The host asked her: "Mengdi, I heard that on the day you came back from Milan, Mr. Zhou personally went to the airport to pick you up?"
"Yes, I couldn't tell you before. He is just a tough talker. Oh, but don't get me wrong. Mr. Zhou and I are just good friends. Don't think too much about it~"
The scandal between the two of them has been going on for more than a day or two. The more she said this, the more she meant that there was no three hundred taels of silver in this place.
The host asked again: "I heard that Mr. Chen got married two days ago, and Mr. Zhou gave you a necklace worth 12 million as a congratulatory gift. At that time, Mr. Zhou also said that he would give you Hexi Manor as a congratulatory gift for winning the Best Actress Award. is this real?"
Ren Mengdi smiled happily and nodded, but said: "He did mention it to me, but... let me guess."
If you don't deny it, it's acquiescence.
Zhou Shiyan had already mentioned it to her, what was the difference between this and promising to give it to her?
Anyone who hears this will think so, including Jiang Huai.
Xie Yao exited the video at the right time and saw Jiang Huai sitting aside with an ugly face, his head slightly lowered, his eyes were red, and he looked like he was about to cry.
Jiang Huai stood up to leave, and Zhou Shiyan hurriedly caught up with her.
His touch quickly caused Jiang Huai to struggle, but he never let go.
"where to?"
"Let go, I don't care." She shed tears, "Zhou Shiyan, I hate you, I never want to see you again."
The voice was not loud, but it made Zhou Shiyan's heart skip a beat.
Jiang Huai is never the type to yell when she loses her temper. The calmer she is, the more serious she is.
He couldn't afford to gamble.
Finally, he finally said: "I did not give Hexi Manor to anyone else."
When Jiang Huai heard this, he immediately stopped struggling and raised his wet eyes to look at him.
Zhou Shiyan's Adam's apple rolled up and down, and he said: "You are right, there is nothing more beneficial to a businessman than real money and silver. I am waiting for you to buy it. Are you relieved now?"
"real?"
Zhou Shiyan sighed inwardly. After all, there was nothing he could do about her. He didn't expect to let go so quickly.
"Well, didn't you say you want to go out with Xie Yao? Go change clothes."
Embarrassed to keep Xie Yao waiting, Jiang Huai went upstairs to change clothes dubiously.
When Zhou Shiyan turned around, he saw Xie Yao holding her head with one hand and watching as if watching a show.
"Are you satisfied?"
"Mr. Zhou is joking, shouldn't you thank me?"
