Liang Han collected his thoughts and asked, ‘You said you needed my help with something over the phone. What is it?”
Xi Cheng gestured for him to sit down, and Gu Man quickly poured him a cup of tea. Liang Han looked at her strangely but didn’t say anything. Xi Cheng answered, “Help me talk to Shi Xiu. Tell her to stop her acquisition of ‘Vision of Eternity.’ I’m interested in this place; I want to purchase it.” freewe bnovel.com
Liang Han was surprised. “Shi Xiu wants to buy out ‘Vision ofEternity?”
Xi Cheng nodded. “Yes, the person previously in charge of this place was Shi Gao. She offended Shi Xiu, so Shi Xiu started a forceful acquisition of the place.
I’d like to ask you to be the middleman and have Shi Xiu give this place to me. I’ll treat her fairly in terms of the price. Shi Xiu doesn’t lack such businesses, anyway. She only wants this place out of childish anger.”
Liang Han picked up his cup of tea and took a sip. “Can’t you just talk to her yourself? Why do you need me to be the middleman for this?”
Xi Cheng frowned and replied, “You know the girls don’t like me.”
Liang Han put down his teacup and thought, ‘So he does know.’ He leaned back against the sofa and huffed, “Alright, I’ll give it a go.”
Xi Cheng’s expression eased, and he personally poured Liang Han a cup of tea. “I’ll treat you to a meal later.”
“You still haven’t told me what you plan to do with this place. You have better places to use as an office, and Lin Yu doesn’t like the bar scene, either,” Liang Han stated without even sparing Gu Man a glance.
Gu Man looked at Xi Cheng nervously. Xi Cheng slowly drank his tea, put down the cup, and lifted his head to stare at Liang Han. “I’m buying this place for Gu Man,” he said calmly.
Liang Han looked at him, and the two buddies stared at each other, wordlessly speaking with their eyes alone. After a long while, Xi Cheng remarked, “Gu Man hasn’t had it easy. There’s not much I can do for her other than this.”
Liang Han looked at Xi Cheng. “Bro, I think you haven’t had it easy, either.” He impassively picked up his phone and made a call. The moment the call went through, his face immediately lit up. “Shi Xiu, darling, where are you? Hey, I’ve got a proposition for you: how about I help you sell off ‘ Vision of Eternity?”
There was a loud noise at Shi Xiu’s end of the call. “Liang Han, I had an accident on the road…
Liang Han stood up in shock. “What?! Are you alright?”
Shi Xiu replied, “I’m fine, but I rear-ended someone’s car. *Sigh* What did you say just now? Someone wants to buy ‘ Vision ofEternity? You should call Chen Nian; he’s the one helping me run that operation. I can’t talk now, Liang Han; I have to rush off to work, or I’ll be late.”
Shi Xiu hung up her phone and apologized to the person who got out of the car in front of her—the car she rear-ended. “I’m sorry. Please wait here for a bit. Someone from my family is coming to deal with this. I’m in a hurry, so I’ll be leaving now. ”
Shi Xiu flagged down a taxi, opened the car door, and got in. Just as she was about to close the door, the person she rear-ended grabbed the car door, stopping her. With an insouciant smile on his good-looking face, the man stated, “Miss, you look like you’re doing a hit-and-run.”
Shi Xiu hung her phone on her wrist and pressed her palms together. Her face scrunched into a pout as she pleaded, “Don’t take this the wrong way, handsome. I really have something urgent to attend to, so I have to leave now. Don’t worry, someone from my family will be here soon. I admit I was the one at fault; I take full responsibility for this. I’ll pay for all the damage expenses! I promise! I won’t go back on my word!”
The handsome man chuckled before opening the taxi’s front passenger door with one hand and closing the door on Shi Xiu’s side with the other. He swiftly got in the car and said, “No can do, miss. I’m worried you’ll run off, so how about I follow you? Sir, please drive us to this lady’s destination.”
Shi Xiu was stunned at the man’s audacity. “You!”
The handsome man turned around and smiled gently. “My name’s Lan Long.”
The taxi driver started the car, and Shi Xiu turned to look back toward the two cars that had collided. Lan Long smiled cheerily. “Don’t worry, my driver is there. He’ll wait for your family to come over and settle things. Now, may I ask for your name?”
Seeing as what’s done is done, Shi Xiu graciously introduced herself. “My name is Shi Xiu. I’m very sorry about what happened today.”
Lan Long smiled. “It’s fine. These things happen when you’re on the road. I’m just curious. You look quite young, so what kind of emergency have you in a rush like that? Are you late for an exam?”
Shi Xiu’s phone rang before she could say anything. Shi Xiu quickly answered the call and cried, “Yun Nan, help! I’m going to be late!”
Yun Nan’s gentle voice could be heard saying, “Chang Yuan said you had a traffic accident. Are you alright?” freew ebnovel.com
“I’m fine. I’m taking a taxi over right now. If I don’t make it in time, you have to help me deal with things for a while!” Shi Xiu uttered anxiously.
“Don’t worry, Fang Xi has everything arranged,” Yun Nan replied. “You should be careful and stay safe. I think it’s best to let the chauffeur pick you up in the future. You driving really delays things.” Yun Nan couldn’t bear to be harsh with Shi Xiu even though she was reprimanding her.
Shi Xiu pouted. “I want to say no, but since I don’t have a leg to stand on, alright!”
“Yan Tang asked us out for a meal. She said she has something to discuss with us. Do you know what it is?” Yun Nan asked..
