Chapter 840: 620 He’s Miss (Requesting Monthly Pass!)
Mandarin Oriental.
Vera had just finished an overseas call.
She fiddled with her phone, her amber eyes showing contemplation, and after a while, she said to her female bodyguard, "Bring in Number Six."
The female bodyguard took the order and left the room.
Soon after, a man entered who did not fit the moniker "Number Six" – a tall and fierce-looking Westerner.
Of course.
Such a concept probably didn’t exist in the West.
He stood with his hands behind his back and respectfully called out, "Miss."
"What is that guy up to?"
"I’m not sure, he’s been staying in his room all the time."
"He hasn’t gone out?"
Vera slightly frowned.
"No, since moving in, he hasn’t left once."
Vera fell silent, no longer speaking, and walked out on her shapely legs.
"Am I not trustworthy enough for you? Don’t listen to Luo Peng’s nonsense; I’m not like Luo Peng at all..."
Inside the room.
Jiang Chen held his phone and spoke with a smile; obviously, it was Li Shuru on the other end.
Li Shuru was not a narrow-minded girl; even though she hadn’t graduated yet, her breadth of mind was much larger than that of an average woman. Otherwise, she wouldn’t let him run around freely.
But at times, Li Shuru would still deliberately make something out of nothing; this was a little playful banter between couples.
"I saw a souvenir shop in Haojiang, should I send a postcard back to you?"
Jewelry and luxury goods are indeed great tools to woo women, but now, Jiang Chen felt they held little significance for Li Shuru.
What’s unattainable is always in turmoil.
The high value of luxury goods is their greatest charm, precisely because they are unaffordable – that’s why people long for them.
And now, for Li Shuru, browsing luxury stores was no different from browsing ordinary supermarkets.
Buying a luxury item makes your heart swell with joy, but what if you buy a cabbage?
Perhaps it’s an exaggeration, but Li Shuru now seemed to have reached a certain level of returning to simplicity.
"Click."
While Jiang Chen was on the phone, there was a sudden noise at the door.
He turned his head and was astonished to find the securely closed door being effortlessly pushed open,
as Vera walked in with regal composure.
"I’m a bit busy now, I’ll talk to you later."
Jiang Chen first ended the call, then regarded the nonchalant Vera and rightfully demanded, "How did you get in?"
"I came in through the door."
His question was so reasonable, yet she responded even more confidently.
"..."
Jiang Chen was momentarily at a loss for words.
It seemed he truly had asked a pointless question.
The floor he was staying on had been booked entirely by them; having a key card for any room was not surprising at all.
Vera sat down on the sofa and then asked, "Why don’t you go out?"
"Why should I go out?"
Jiang Chen was baffled.
Vera looked at him. "Others are busy working, and you just stay in the hotel all day. How are you going to compete with them?"
"..."
Jiang Chen suddenly understood and wanted to explain, but he could not help laughing first. "Aren’t you doing the same?"
Vera frowned; although she was unconventional, when it came to serious matters, she was quite earnest, "Don’t forget, you said you wanted to cooperate with me."
Jiang Chen knew what she meant.
Vera wanted to partner with him... no, to cooperate. She probably saw the advantage of his being a person from Shenzhou, which her foreign power lacked, and wanted to use it.
So, seeing him staying in the hotel all the time, "neglecting his duties," she was anxious.
Pocketing his phone, Jiang Chen came over and sat down.
"Some things don’t require personal attention; do you understand what I mean?"
He truly played the part well.
Vera seemed to have understood his meaning and therefore inquired, "Do you have a clear idea of the He’s family’s bottom line?"
Jiang Chen, keeping a straight face, nodded, "It’s clear, no more than fifty billion."
Fifty billion.
Vera pondered.
Jiang Chen noticed that the force behind Vera sending her here was not joking around; the girl was not as unreliable as she appeared to be on the surface.
"Can you be more specific?"
Jiang Chen unflinchingly shook his head, "I’m no ’immortal,’ nor am I a core member of the He family. Such confidential information would not be leaked so easily by them."
"Then where did you get your information about the fifty billion?"
Vera asked immediately, not so much in doubt of Jiang Chen, but to confirm the reliability of the source of the news.
"I have my channels."
Although Vera might still be underage, she was not a simple child and didn’t naively keep digging. She asked half in inquiry and half as a reminder, "Aren’t you afraid it’s a smokescreen released by the He family?"
To know your enemy and know yourself ensures victory without danger.
Only by fully understanding the opponent’s cards can one better prepare.
After all, not everyone is as "flush with cash" as he is.
"You don’t need to worry about that; the funds that the He family can gather are around fifty billion, the margin of error won’t be large." Jiang Chen stated decisively, full of confidence.
His understanding of the He family came only from news and gossip, but Lan Peizhi’s judgment required no questioning.
"How much money are you prepared with?"
Vera followed up with a question.
If someone were not careful, they might blurt out the answer, but Jiang Chen did not fall for it.
Not because he was cautious, but because.
— He had no "bottom line."
"... How much are you prepared with?"
Facing those amber eyes, Jiang Chen quickly retorted with a question of his own.
This guy was quite wary.
Seeing that she did not succeed, Vera was not disappointed; as if nothing had happened, she immediately diverged from the topic.
"The He family is the biggest casino family in Shenzhou, and they can only come up with fifty billion?"
