Gu San was speechless.
His eyes started to wander around. Even though he knew that no one was paying attention to him, he still wanted to help himself. He said dryly, âAh, I remember that I still have something I havenât bought. Miss Qiao, Master Wang, wait for me. Iâll be back soon.â
Qiao Nian didnât notice him coming over at first. Hearing this, her attention shifted to the side, but Gu San had already fled.
She didnât think too much about it. Just then, her cell phone vibrated again, so she looked down at it.
Yuan Yongqin was calling her.
âIâll take this call.â Qiao Nian got up, retracted her hand, and picked up the phone.
This time, Ye Wangchuan let go of her quickly, completely acting like a sensible boyfriend. âGo on. Take a nap on the plane later. Otherwise, youâll have a lot to do during lunch.â
âMm,â Qiao Nian replied and walked to the side to answer the call.
In the Cheng Feng Corporation building in Beijing, Yuan Yongqin was dressed in a white business suit. Her hair was combed neatly, and she looked stern.
âKnock knock.â
Su Mo knocked on the door and came in with
tea.
She walked to the full-length window and made a call. Her lowered eyebrows were very gentle, and her tone sounded like she was talking to her daughter. She spoke softly as if she was afraid that her loud voice would scare the person on the other end.
âHave lunch at the Imperial Mansion? Which floor? Iâll go over early.â
He put the teacup on Yuan Yongqinâs office table and slowly pushed it to the side. He knew who Yuan Yongqin was talking to without asking
In such a big city like Beijing, only Miss Qiao could make President Yuan speak so accommodatingly. âThird floor? Alright, I understand. Iâll arrange a time later and go over at 11. Nian Nian, are you on the plane?â
He didnât know what the person on the other end of the line said, but she looked worried. âYouâre not staying at home in Beijing? Where are you staying, then? Have you booked the hotel? Do you want me to book it for you? Itâs fine if youâre not staying at the hotel. Come and stay with me, or Iâll get someone to tidy up a house for you. Donât you have dozens of properties in Beijing? Iâll send you the addresses. Look at which district you want to stay in.â
Dozens of properties in Beijing⦠Su Mo looked down. Every time he heard this, he couldnât help but sigh. Who would have thought that an inconspicuous ordinary girl in Rao City had dozens of houses under her name? They were all in Beijingâs prime locations, including high-end two-story apartments and small villas.
Each one was worth more than a seven-figure sum. Some were even nine-figure and exceeded a hundred million yuan.
They were all fixed investments that Yuan Yongqin had bought for Qiao Nian all these years. If Qiao Nian didnât want them, she would put them under Qiao Nianâs name anyway.
After some time, they slowly accumulated into dozens of units.
Anyway, he knew Chairman Yuanâs personality. She gave her a house for the New Year and a house for her birthday. When Miss Qiao called her Aunt Yuan for the first time, she was so happy she gave her another property.
A small courtyard house in the prime area in Beijing.
After all these years, if Miss Qiao wanted to sell it, the price would be sky high!
Not many people in Beijing could afford it.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Yuan Yongqin was still leaning against the window talking into the phone. Her gaze landed on the endless flow of cars downstairs, and her eyes were gentle. âMm⦠alright⦠Weâll see how it goes when you arrive. Send me a message when you arrive. Iâll get Su Mo to pick you up.â
Su Mo raised his head and silently remembered this arrangement.
Unexpectedly, Yuan Yongqin hung up the phone and turned around to tell him, âNian Nian said that she would come over herself. Iâm going to the Imperial Mansion for a meal in the afternoon. Help me postpone todayâs appointments. I want to talk to Old Master Jiang after lunch.â
