Chapter 424: Chapter 454, Then in the Life After Next

Pop!

Huo Xiaoxuan’s forehead was struck with a loud flick.

"Ow, you big pervert, how could you hit me on the head!" Huo Xiaoxuan exclaimed indignantly.

"If I don’t hit you on the head, should I hit you on the chest?" Fang Yi joked.

"You... you all gang up to bully me... Sister Yan!" Huo Xiaoxuan looked hopefully towards Ding Miaoyan.

Ding Miaoyan said, "We’re here to talk about serious matters, don’t make a fuss. Don’t you like drinking Coke? Peilan, do we have any here?"

Zhou Peilan replied with a smile, "Of course we do."

After a brief interlude, Fang Yi and the other two sat down as Zhou Peilan turned off the lights in the meeting room.

There was a projector in front of the meeting room, which was now on, projecting photos that seemed to be of a banquet with all sorts of people in attendance.

Fang Yi focused his eyes and suddenly spotted Li Xuan. He raised his eyebrows but remained silent, waiting for Zhou Peilan to speak.

The image of Li Xuan on the screen froze, and Zhou Peilan used a ruler to point at Li Xuan, "Childe Group’s General Manager, Li Xuan, 28 years old, returned from abroad last week and opened the ’Childe’ branch in Moon City, that is, the Childe Company."

"This company has strong financial backing and a solid official background. Right now, they’re looking for external cooperation, mainly through funding."

"This company can be considered a venture capital firm, as it operates on funds. Just yesterday, the company had a banquet and invited a variety of people to discuss cooperation. If you invest a sum of money, in half a year’s time, it will yield a significant return. I’ve called you here today to hear your opinions and to see if it’s feasible."

Huo Xiaoxuan flipped through the documents under the table lamp, then put them down and said, "This has to be a scam, right? An interest of 0.5, that’s even higher than the banks. It’s clearly fundraising fraud."

"Peilan, what’s your take on this?" Zhou Peilan turned to Ding Miaoyan.

Sitting in her chair, Ding Miaoyan crossed her legs and wrapped her arms around her well-endowed chest, which heaved noticeably. She said indifferently, "I agree with Xiaoxuan. Childe Company is obviously engaging in fundraising fraud. Once you invest, there’s no good ending, and you might even lose your shirt. Peilan, are you interested?"

Zhou Peilan gave a wry smile and said, "It’s not that I’m interested, but I received a call from this company. They sent over a lot of materials, and the person in charge even took the initiative to approach me, wanting to cooperate with our company."

Huo Xiaoxuan said, "This isn’t just fundraising fraud; they’re also targeting our fresh, new company."

Zhou Peilan nodded and said, "I’ve made inquiries too. Childe Company didn’t only approach us but many newly established companies as well. They’ve visited all of them, so I don’t plan to cooperate with this company."

Ding Miaoyan and Huo Xiaoxuan nodded in agreement.

However, at that moment, the silent Fang Yi suddenly spoke up, "Agree to it."

Gasp!

Suddenly, silence fell in the meeting room.

Three women turned their gazes to Fang Yi simultaneously.

"Hey, big pervert, are you sick? If there’s a pit, are you going to jump in it?" Huo Xiaoxuan clenched her fist and waved it, "See this? Fist-sized punching bag, I really feel like rushing over and giving you a beating right now."

Ding Miaoyan looked at Fang Yi, her beautiful eyes filled with confusion, "What are you thinking, doing the opposite of what’s expected to surprise them?"

But Fang Yi just smiled slightly and said, "It’s a secret."

This response left the three women utterly baffled, even the cleverest Ding Miaoyan couldn’t figure out what Fang Yi was thinking or what he was up to.

Fang Yi spent half of the day at the new company, and in the afternoon, he went to Longtu Group to meet with Shen Binan.

Shen Binan was not surprised by Fang Yi’s arrival; when Fang Yi arrived, Shen Binnan looked up and saw him, "You’re here, what would you like to drink?"

"Milk," Fang Yi blurted out without thinking.

Shen Binnan was taken aback, and then said, "No!"

Fang Yi pointed at the box of milk on the table and said, "Isn’t that it?"

Shen Binnan’s cheeks flushed slightly. The milk was for her to drink, not prepared for this guy.

Ever since the last time at the hospital, when Shen Binnan took Huo Xiaoxuan’s ’breast enhancement advice’, she had been practically inseparable from milk, occasionally eating things like papaya.

As for whether her chest had grown or not, she hadn’t measured, but she felt it probably had increased in size. Drinking milk had become a habit for Shen Binnan; every day she’d either have a carton of milk or warm up some fresh milk to drink.

Of course, Fang Yi was naturally unaware of Shen Binnan’s little thoughts.

Ignoring Fang Yi’s nonsense, Shen Binnan poured a cup of mineral water for him and said, "There’s no milk, but there is plain water. Drinking it can help to improve intelligence."

Pretending not to catch on, Fang Yi said with a grin, "Thanks for the concern. I’ve finally figured out that one plus one equals two."

Shen Binnan said, "You’re such a fool."

Fang Yi said, "If I’m the fool, then you’re the bigger one."

Shen Binnan was puzzled, "What do you mean?"

Fang Yi revealed a mischievous smile, "Putting a stroke across two makes it three, you know what I mean."

Shen Binnan was speechless; this guy’s mind was filled with all sorts of nonsense.

However, Shen Binnan didn’t know that teasing her had become a habit for Fang Yi.

"What are you here for?" Shen Binnan decided to change the subject.

"Of course, it’s to... well, do nothing much, just wanted to ask about your ex-boyfriend," Fang Yi said.

Shen Binnan looked at Fang Yi in surprise and then said coldly, "My ex-boyfriend is just that, an ex. We have no ties anymore. You’re asking the wrong person."

Hearing Shen Binnan’s words, Fang Yi was secretly pleased and said, "So, if I take that guy down, you won’t have any complaints, right?"

Shen Binnan said, "Why would you take down someone who’s minding their own business?"

Fang Yi gave an irrefutable reason, "Because I can’t stand him."

Shen Binnan parted her seductive red lips and said, "... Fine." She really couldn’t argue with that.

Fang Yi sighed and decided to tell Shen Binnan the truth, as keeping her in the dark wasn’t ideal and could create unnecessary distance between them.

Listening to him, Shen Binnan’s usually cold face showed a hint of disgust, "I had no idea he was that kind of person."

Fang Yi said, "Illegal fundraising, that’s fraud, and he even tried to scam me. If I don’t do anything about it, wouldn’t that be unmanly?"

Shen Binnan said, "I won’t stop you, but I won’t support you either."

Fang Yi smiled faintly and said, "I didn’t come here to ask for your support, just to let you know. I want to take him on, and it’s not just for you."

Suddenly, Shen Binnan felt like laughing, and couldn’t help but let a smile spread across her lips, "Fine by me. I can tell you clearly, I have no feelings for him anymore. What’s past is like smoke in the air. I, Shen Binnan, can pick things up and let them go. I’ve made a mistake once, and I won’t make it a second time."

Fang Yi said, "I’m relieved to hear you say that. When will you marry me?"

"Um, maybe in the next life."

"The next life?! That’s too far away!"

"One more word, and it will be the life after the next one."
