64: Chapter 64 Tycoon Bro!
When the city gates catch fire, the fish in the moat suffer.
The argument between Lin Wan and Fang Qingya made it impossible for Wu Jie to leave!
His car was blocked by Fang Qingya’s BMW!
The two were arguing fiercely, and it seemed inappropriate for him to ask them to move their car now, so Wu Jie simply watched from a distance.
After all, the luncheon was still some time away.
But…
This argument was a serious one.
It lasted a full twenty minutes, ending with Lin Wan walking away in tears and Fang Qingya driving off angrily.
Vroom!!
The BMW emitted a terrifying roar as it sped away with great speed.
Wu Jie stepped out of the elevator and encountered the tear-streaked Lin Wan.
A beautiful woman with tears glistening on her cheeks, she looked pitiful.
Wu Jie felt a surge of compassion in his heart.
“Lin, actually…”
“Don’t bother consoling me, it’s over!
Completely over!” Lin Wan wiped her tears, then suddenly looked up: “Can you lend me some money?”
“Ah?” Wu Jie was startled: “What do you need so much money for?
And…
do I look like a rich person to you?”
Lin Wan said, “When I first bought this apartment and parking space, she contributed one and a half million.
Now that we’ve broken up, I want to pay her back.
I don’t want to owe her a cent!”
“I heard you were planning to buy a house, and Tianyuan’s properties are a few million each.
Even if you’re paying a 30% down payment for your first house, that should still be over a million, right?”
Wu Jie was secretly astonished.
Breakups between men and women usually involve lingering feelings; rarely do they cut ties in one stroke.
But looking at Lin Wan and Fang Qingya, it seemed they were indeed brutally straightforward!
Is this how relationships between women are?
Either deeply attached or turning into sworn enemies?
And Lin Wan really was meticulous!
“I can come up with one and a half million, but that’s not a small sum!” Wu Jie murmured.
Lin Wan, with tears in her eyes, looked resolute:
“Don’t worry, I’ll write an IOU with my house as collateral!”
Wu Jie nodded slightly, “Your apartment is now worth over seven million on the market.
I’m not worried that you can’t pay back.
Are you sure that’s all you need?
What if she gets greedy and asks for more?”
Lin Wan’s brow furrowed.
“That’s true!
The value of the apartment has increased so much, it would be fair for her to ask for a share of the profits!
Can you lend me two million?”
“With the house as a mortgage, why not?” Wu Jie replied with a smile.
Soon.
Lin Wan took Wu Jie to the property management center where the manager acted as a witness for the loan secured by her apartment.
Upon exiting the bank next to the residential area, Lin Wan saw the deposit confirmation message on her phone and glanced at the tail lights of the departing car when she suddenly paused.
“Eh~Something’s not right!”
Lin Wan suddenly became puzzled.
Previously, judging by his style of dress and bedroom decor, she had always thought of Wu Jie as a typical office worker, an older single male ‘loser’.
Only now did she abruptly realize that he was actually a hidden small tycoon!
Was it because Tanglong Industrial Group paid well, or did Wu Jie’s family own a mine?
Two million, just like that, lent without a second thought!
Even though Lin Wan used her house as collateral, his willingness to lend money so generously was indeed noble.
It’s not as valuable to add icing on the cake as it is to send coal in the snow!
Lin Wan gazed at the receding Jeep, feeling a warm current flowing through her heart.
A phone call went out, Lin Wan’s tone was calm:
“Give me an account number.
I’ll pay you back for the house and parking space, principal plus interest!”
…
Tianyuan Haiyue Hotel.
The restaurant resembled an ancient estate, located in the suburbs, nestled against a mountain by a lake, with picturesque scenery.
Wu Jie found a roadside parking spot, set an alarm, and took a nap.
He didn’t call Tang Xiao until the appointed time of eleven o’clock.
“I’m already outside the restaurant.
Where are you?”
“Just drive straight in.
I’m waiting for you in the parking lot of the front courtyard!”
After hanging up, Wu Jie drove into the estate and, following the signs, turned right to see Tang Xiao waving at him.
Today, Tang Xiao was dressed in casual clothes, clean and fresh.
Even without makeup, she was a breath of fresh air.
A natural oxygen beauty, that’s probably what she was!
As soon as Wu Jie parked, Tang Xiao opened the door and got into the car.
“My grandfather, Tang Pingde, is quite particular even after retiring.
Hence, today’s birthday banquet has an air of grandeur even though we only invited close relatives and friends, so there aren’t many people.
But it’s still very stylish, so don’t be nervous at all!”
Tang Xiao reminded him with a serious face.
Wu Jie laughed, “Don’t worry about me.
I have thick skin.
The word ‘nervous’ isn’t even in my vocabulary!”
Tang Xiao hmphed, “Don’t brag in front of me.
If you end up all jittery and incoherent later, you’ll just be slapping your own face.
Moreover, our identity today is straightforward: we are a couple!”
Wu Jie was startled.
“What the heck!
That abrupt?”
Tang Xiao said loud and clear, “Can’t help it!
Think about it, for such an important family dinner, would it be appropriate for me to bring just a ‘good friend’?
It would be like blatantly hiding something!
Better to say we’re a couple, considering everyone has seen it on social media already.”
“True, there’s no need for pointless actions like taking off our pants to fart,” Wu Jie casually replied.
“Who’s taking off their pants to fart?” Tang Xiao snorted, then asked impatiently, “Besides, where’s the gift you were supposed to buy?
I gave you a budget of 500,000.
Don’t try to pass off something cheap as good and cheat me!”
Wu Jie pointed behind him.
The war atlas wasn’t small.
Wu Jie had to fold down the rear seats to expand the trunk space to fit the oversized atlas.
Tang Xiao turned to take a glance:
“500,000, and you got me just a painting?”
“A collection of books, encompassing tens of thousands of pictures.
Isn’t gift-giving all about the thought?
What, is grandpa going to publicly chide me for not being generous as his grandson-in-law?”
Grandson-in-law?
Tang Xiao’s lips twitched.
“You really are shameless!”
Opening the car door, Tang Xiao got out and said, “What are you dawdling for?
Move your album inside.
Quite a few relatives have already arrived!”
“No need for you to carry it—I have my own way!”
Wu Jie got out of the car and took a long strap, bundled up the atlas, and carried it on his back.
Tang Xiao, filled with curiosity, came closer for a look, “What’s this atlas you’ve wrapped in kraft paper all about?”
“Don’t worry, it won’t embarrass you!”
Without saying more, Tang Xiao led Wu Jie toward the back yard.
Beep beep!
A Porsche Cayenne honked its horn, and Wu Jie immediately stepped aside.
No choice!
With the atlas on his back, it was too wide, blocking part of the narrow lane leading to the backyard, making it impossible for cars to pass.
The Cayenne slowly approached, the window rolled down, revealing a handsome, fair face.
“Xiao, good morning!
What’s with the laborer carrying something?
Is it a gift for grandfather?”
“Hey!
This guy looks familiar.
Haven’t I seen him somewhere before?”
Tang Xiao’s expression darkened.
“Tang Kun, are you blind?
He is your older brother, my boyfriend Wu Jie!”
Ah?
With a gasp, Tang Kun stuck his head out of the window and examined Wu Jie from head to toe.
That piercing gaze was like a scanner, seemingly attempting to see right through Wu Jie.
“What the hell!”
Tang Kun’s face was full of shock, “Sis, if you couldn’t find a boyfriend, you didn’t have to settle for him to fool everyone, right?
Even if you were to choose, at least find someone handsome or dressed in something more upscale, no?”
“Him?
Ha, I thought he was some transporter when I first saw him!
Seriously, saying he’s your boyfriend, I wouldn’t believe it if you beat me to death.
Don’t think the whole family has gone blind!”
