Angel rolled her eyes at me. âDonât worry about that! Once you sign this contract, this matter will be settled. I can also give you two boats so that you can move all your belongings.â
The arrangement was quite detailed.
I turned around to look at Jing Tian. I wanted to know if my guess was correct.
Jing Tian raised his hand and gestured five fingers at me.
I suddenly understood. I turned around to look at Angel. âMiss Angel, youâre so greedy. Do your parents know that?â
Angel sneered. âI donât understand what youâre saying!â I looked at her and teased, âIf I sell this island for one billion, youâll earn four billion in profit,
no?â
A trace of panic flashed in Angelâs eyes. She couldnât help but look at Lu Yan.
I also looked toward Lu Yan. âThis was your idea, wasnât it? Did you really think I would sell the island that is worth 5 billion for 1 billion? I see that you havenât improved much over the
years.â
Lu Yanâs face turned red.
âYou⦠how did you know that they had offered 5 billion?â Angel cried out.
I smiled at her. âI didnât. My fiance was the one who hinted that to me. Iâm just like you, ignorant and incompetent. But I have a powerful fiancé who knows everything. Iâll listen to him. Iâm sure heâs right!â
Angel glanced at Jing Tian resentfully and gritted her teeth. âFine! Five billion then! Iâll give it all to you! I want you to leave this island immediately and never come back again!â
I smiled. âDid I say I want to sell the island?â
Angel was stunned for a moment. âWhat do you mean? Iâm already offering you five billion. What more do you want?â
I slowly stopped smiling. I looked at her. âGo back and tell your father that if he leaves now, Iâll give him one billion. If he continues to act like this, I wonât be polite anymore. I have never played my cards according to the rules. I donât even know what Iâd do next.â I glanced at Lu Yan, whose face had turned green. âIsnât that right, Lu Yan?â
âNanxing, five billion is not a small amount!â Lu Yan said. She brushed off my humiliation. Her face had gotten thicker over the years.
After all, she had lived at the bottom of society since she was young. This also made it difficult for her to take on such a big responsibility even though she had climbed up to the top.
I suddenly missed Ye Qian. Sometimes, it was a blessing to be able to meet a worthy opponent.
My interest waned. I said indifferently, âGo back. You two are not cut out for business. I will not make a deal with you either. Tell Tong Zhuo to come to talk to me. Since heâs already here, itâs not right for him to avoid me.â I looked at Angel and smiled. âI have a cousin too, one related by blood. He was quite good-looking in my memory. He should still be quite handsome now. However, I wonât like my cousin. In fact, Iâm afraid of him. In my fragmented memory, he had been trying to claim my life. What do you think of such a cousin?â
Angel looked at me in confusion.
It was a waste of words to talk to such idiots.
I turned to Lu Yan and said, âGo back and tell Master Gu Er to stop playing games. Youâve already exposed them. Is your plan to chase me out of the island? But I donât think that is the intention of your new guest. Please go back and figure out what is happening before you make a fool of yourself.â
Lu Yan gritted her teeth. âNanxing! Donât be too arrogant!â I looked at her. âWhat canât I? I have the backing to do thatâ
