My Silly, Sweet Wife

”Mr. Chen, can you still not reach Mr. Ye? That’s someone from the Tianjing Qin Family, you know. If we don’t agree, forget about the Chen Family, even our Azure Dragon Commerce can’t withstand it.”

In the office, Wang Tianxing was already at his wit’s end.

Since becoming the president of Azure Dragon Commerce, knowing Ye Guichen had skills, Wang tried to curry favor with him and practically handed the Dragon Tomb Peak project to Chen Ziran.

But now, the appearance of the Tianjing Qin Family, also wanting a piece of the Dragon Tomb Peak project, put him in a hot spot.

The Azure Dragon Commerce might still have some standing in the three provinces of Jiangnan, but in front of the Qin Family from Tianjing, they were nothing.

The Qin Family, the top of the four prestigious families in the Capital City, is said to have the support of hidden aristocrats. Offending them could mean the end of the Azure Dragon Commerce.

Chen Ziran also furrowed her brows, her face full of worry, ”President Wang, I’ve been trying to reach out for a long time too, but the phone just won’t connect. I’m afraid he might have gone out for something. In this situation, if we have no other choice, we’ll have to transfer the Dragon Tomb Peak project to the Qin Family.”

”Yes, at least transferring it now can still reduce some losses.” In fact, Wang Tianxing had long harbored this thought.

Between the Tianjing Qin Family and Ye Guichen, Wang Tianxing’s inner balance naturally tilted toward the Qin Family.

After all, it’s the Qin Family. No matter how capable Ye Guichen is, how could he possibly be a match for them?

Now hearing Chen Ziran relent, Wang Tianxing immediately took out his phone, ”I’ll contact Young Master Qin right now, and have him come to talk.”

Chen Ziran had no other options and was just about to nod when the office door was pushed open.

A young man in a suit, with a wicked smile at the corner of his mouth, walked in.

He didn’t stand on ceremony after entering; he plopped himself down on the sofa, crossed his legs, and looked at Chen Ziran with interest, ”Mr. Chen, have you made up your mind?”

”Yes, of course, I’ve thought it through.” Before Chen Ziran could speak, Wang Tianxing hurriedly said with a smile, ”Young Master Qin, Mr. Chen has agreed to transfer the Dragon Tomb Peak project, but now it comes down to the price, what do you think...”

”Oh, I originally intended to offer a billion, but now...” Qin Liu sneered, ”I’ve changed my mind. If I had come to negotiate initially, I indeed wanted to spend a billion to buy the project. But now, my money is spent, I’ve hired some experts, so I have no money left.”

Wang Tianxing was startled, ”Young Master Qin, what, what do you mean?”

”No meaning, just that I don’t want to spend money, but the Dragon Tomb Peak project still has to be transferred to my name. Is there a problem?” Qin Liu shrugged as if it were a matter of course.

The smile on Chen Ziran’s face also froze, ”Young Master Qin, are you trying to get something for nothing?”

”Haha, Mr. Chen, what you say sounds so unpleasant!” Qin Liu laughed, ”But if you insist on interpreting it that way, I don’t mind. Yes, let’s call it getting something for nothing.”

With that, Qin Liu stood up, walked to the opposite of Chen Ziran’s desk, and leaned forward, ”Mr. Chen, I heard your fiancé seems to have some skills, isn’t he the Sect Leader of Shennong Hall? Haha, but I’ve been in Jinling for quite some time, and I haven’t seen him. Is he dead?”

”You, you stop talking nonsense!” Chen Ziran was instantly infuriated, ”Ye Guichen is just busy and hasn’t shown himself temporarily.”

”Oh...” Qin Liu sneered, ”Is it that he doesn’t dare to show up or hasn’t shown up? Haha, but I don’t care anymore. Regarding the upcoming Dragon Tomb Peak project, Mr. Chen should know what to do, right? I’m not unreasonable, although I have the Qin Family backing me up, the benefits that should be given to you, I’ll still give you. So, even though I won’t give you money, our Qin Family can provide your Chen Group with some resource allocations, allowing your Chen Group to gain profits not less than a billion, of course...”

At this point, Qin Liu pushed a room card in front of Chen Ziran, ”We’ll need to discuss the specifics in detail because I’m not too familiar with the projects your Chen Group operates. So, you come to this room tonight, and we’ll discuss it thoroughly.”

Qin Liu glanced at Chen Ziran’s collar, stood up, and swaggered out. When he reached the door, he stopped and laughed loudly, ”By the way, Mr. Chen, before eight tonight. If you miss this time, don’t blame me for being impolite. Haha, haha...”

Until Qin Liu left, Chen Ziran’s face had turned livid.

From the first time meeting Qin Liu, he had been grope-y with her.

If it weren’t for Ma Xiaoling being there at the time, Qin Liu might have done something outrageous.

Unexpectedly, Qin Liu was so bold, blatantly presenting a room card today.

The implication was obvious: he wanted her to serve him.

”Rrrip-rrip!”

Chen Ziran glanced at the room card, immediately tearing it into pieces and throwing it into the trash can.

Ma Xiaoling, who had been by Chen Ziran’s side to protect her, witnessed everything.

She furrowed her brows tightly, ”Sister Chen, Qin Liu may be from the Qin Family, but if Ye Guichen returns, he definitely won’t let him off.”

Chen Ziran smiled bitterly, ”It’s been over half a month without any news from him. Who knows what he’s up to?”

Ma Xiaoling also bit her lip.

Ye Guichen being missing for so long indeed wasn’t normal.

Even after asking the guys from Dragon Teeth, all they said was that Ye Guichen was on a mission, but they wouldn’t say what it was.

Chen Ziran even worried if something really happened to Ye Guichen.

”Mr. Chen, what do we do now?” Deep in Wang Tianxing’s eyes, a barely noticeable look of triumph flickered.

At times like this, Wang Tianxing couldn’t dare offend Qin Liu. Meanwhile, without Ye Guichen, he could naturally remain neutral. Even if Ye Guichen returned, he could still say he did his best.

Knowing that Qin Liu had produced a room card, Wang Tianxing understood that Chen Ziran likely had no choice.

Clearly, if Chen Ziran dared not go tonight, forget the Dragon Tomb Peak project, the entire Chen Group might face catastrophe.

Ma Xiaoling couldn’t stand it, shooting Wang Tianxing a glare, she muttered darkly, ”Sister Chen, what’s there to worry about? Tonight we’ll go, I’ll go with you. If he dares to act up, I’ll show him! Hmph, Mr. Ye has been very kind to me, and you are Mr. Ye’s fiancée. If I can’t even protect you, then I, Ma Xiaoling, also shouldn’t exist in this world!”

Tears welled in Chen Ziran’s eyes, as she held Ma Xiaoling’s hand, ”Xiaoling, I don’t even know what to say. I used to think I was capable, but now I realize, without him, I can’t even make a proper decision.”

Ma Xiaoling comforted her, ”No worries, Sister Chen. Be assured! This is Jinling. No matter how long the Qin Family’s reach is, they can’t do much here. Aren’t there also many of our people at the martial arts hall? Plus, with support from the Jinling Prince Mansion and Dragon Teeth, if Qin Liu really dares make a move, he won’t profit in any way.”
