Chapter 132: Chapter 134: What men think, I aim for!

Xia Ziqi bit her lower lip, clearly pondering.

Finally, Xia Ziqi lifted her head and looked at Fang Yi, saying, "We need to write an IOU."

"Alright, an IOU it is. Even if you hadn’t mentioned it, I was going to suggest writing one," Fang Yi said with a smile, a way to keep Xia Ziqi’s pride intact.

So the IOU was written, and each held a copy. Xia Ziqi solemnly put away her copy.

"But there’s still a lot I don’t understand," Xia Ziqi expressed her concerns.

"Don’t worry. I’m here, aren’t I? I surely can’t let you go bankrupt if I expect you to pay me back," Fang Yi joked.

Xia Ziqi didn’t say much more, feeling that Fang Yi truly wanted to help her.

The two talked a lot more. Since their previous barriers had fallen, their conversation was quite casual. Fang Yi inquired about Xia Ziqi’s thoughts and cheered her on, boosting her confidence.

Later, Xia Ziqi, accompanied by Cai Cai, left for home to rest.

After closing the door, Fang Yi took out the IOU and tore it up without hesitation.

...

Fang Yi rested at home for two days, during which Shen Binnan even called to ensure he was taking a break. Knowing that there wouldn’t be any immediate danger at Shen Binnan’s, Fang Yi "took sick leave" and enjoyed a relaxing two days at home.

Life was truly pleasant. Each meal was cooked by Xia Ziqi, deliciously so, and Fang Yi simply enjoyed the free meals, spending two days with such a charming lady. Although there wasn’t any substantial contact, just looking was satisfying enough.

Sometimes, Fang Yi was easily contented.

On the third day, Fang Yi went to the office.

Upon arrival, he saw everyone in the sales department with joyful smiles on their faces, as if they had seen world peace.

Walking further, Fang Yi saw Huo Xiaoxuan sitting in a chair, looking up at the ceiling.

The girl had her left arm across her chest and her right hand supporting her cheek. When Fang Yi walked by, she even let out a silly laugh, startling him.

"Don’t go over there," came Ding Miaoyan’s voice from behind.

Still dressed as a glamorous OL, her flesh-colored stockings tempting, Fang Yi looked on intently, "Why not?"

"Today’s payday. She’s just thinking about where to go after work. If you disturb her, she might go crazy," Ding Miaoyan explained.

Fang Yi suddenly realized and then thought, staring straight at Ding Miaoyan, "Payday, today?"

Ding Miaoyan nodded.

"Damn, nobody called me for payday," Fang Yi said, preparing to leave.

"You don’t need to go get your salary," Ding Miaoyan said.

"Why not?"

"President Shen has already collected it for you."

Fang Yi paused, then quickly left the sales department and headed for the president’s office, Ding Miaoyan hearing him mutter curses like "what the fuck" under his breath.

Upon reaching the president’s office, Shen Binnan, as if she had been expecting him, had a trace of a smile on her usually icy face, "You’re here."

Fang Yi strode over, extended his hand, and said seriously, "My salary."

Shen Binnan glanced at him, opened a drawer, took out a bank card and gave it to him, along with a small piece of paper with the password.

This actually stunned Fang Yi for a moment. Since when had this woman become so easy to talk to?

"Looking at you, it seems like you think I would skim off your salary?" Shen Binnan said.

"Nothing like that." Fang Yi naturally wouldn’t admit it.

Shen Binnan clearly wouldn’t dwell on that and said, "Ren Tianqing has made his move."

"That fast, huh..." Fang Yi pulled up a chair and sat down.

"He decided to start from the stock market, buying up a large amount of Longtu Group’s stocks, even offering high prices to a few shareholders to buy their shares."

"Really throwing his weight around with his money, what do you plan to do?" Fang Yi asked, admittedly clueless about these matters.

"You’re right, Ren Tianqing indeed thinks that way, he’s tremendously wealthy. And since my father founded Longtu Group, he never restricted the shareholders from trading their shares."

Shen Binnan seemed somewhat helpless.

Ren Tianqing could do this, but Shen Binnan couldn’t.

Longtu Group didn’t have many shareholders, only a few, and most of the shares were with the Shen family. Even if Ren Tianqing bought the shares from the other few shareholders, it wouldn’t cause much turmoil in Longtu Group.

And it wasn’t hard to imagine that Ren Tianqing had another motive – to annoy people. He was eager to reclaim his loss from a few days ago.

Fang Yi frowned slightly and said, "It looks like Ren Tianqing is planning to be aggressive, even if he can’t do much to Longtu Group, but he can still annoy us, why is this old guy so petty."

Shen Binnan said, "I didn’t expect him to actually do this. Although it won’t do much to Longtu Group, it still has some impact."

"That’s true..."

Fang Yi knocked on the desk lightly and said, "If he can do this, who says we can’t do the same?"

"But we don’t have that much money!" Shen Binnan calmly thought for a moment, pointing out the key issue directly.

"Who says?" Fang Yi raised an eyebrow, "Don’t you have me?"

"You?"

Shen Binnan stared at him as if seeing a ghost.

Fang Yi, shamelessly unabashed, said, "Didn’t I tell you? I’m tall, rich, and handsome, I have plenty of money."

Shen Binnan joked, "If that’s the case, why did you ask to borrow money from me at the auction that day?"

Don’t expect Fang Yi to blush, for his skin was thick. He glanced at Shen Binnan and said, "Borrowing money from you doesn’t mean I’m broke. I was just teasing you that day."

Shen Binnan casually said, "Alright, let me tease you too. Lend me ten billion, I guarantee I can take down Ren Group."

Yet Fang Yi was quite serious and asked, "How much interest?"

Shen Binnan replied, "No interest, if you lend me ten billion, and I succeed, I’ll even marry you."

Fang Yi lifted his hand to wipe his mouth, afraid he might drool, and said, "You said it, you won’t go back on your word like last time, right?"

Shen Binnan smiled, "Of course not." It’s all just a joke anyway, good to tease him a bit.

But Fang Yi was unusually earnest, "No way! A verbal agreement isn’t enough, we must put it in writing, or else who will I turn to if you stand me up?" Saying this, he pulled out paper and pen from the desk and started writing.

"You can’t be serious." Shen Binnan felt a headache coming on as he seemed to really take it to heart, where would he get so much money from?

"I’m absolutely serious, this is a grand opportunity to include you in my harem." Fang Yi responded while preparing the written agreement, oblivious to the fact that he had spoken his most sinister thought aloud.

"You want to start a harem?" Shen Binnan’s beautiful face instantly turned cold, covered in frost.

"What men desire, I strive for." Fang Yi pretended to blow on the paper and said, "Here, I’ve written it, take a look."
