Chapter 1703 - 1698: An Unbelievable Proposal
Chapter 1703 - 1698: An Unbelievable Proposal
After speaking with a sense of frustration, Lv Xinxin heard a playful teasing laugh coming from the earpiece, "Haha, you’re just a heartbreaker! No, you’re even more infuriating than a heartbreaker, you just vanished. Don’t you know I really like you?"
"Of course, I know, but we’re both girls after all!"
Hearing her confess again, Lv Xinxin sighed with a slight headache!
At this moment, the girl on the phone with Lv Xinxin was Shangguan Xue, a particularly capable and very beautiful girl.
The only issue with this girl was that she was especially bold!
Previously, when Lv Xinxin and she were drinking together, Shangguan Xue got drunk and directly confessed to her.
Lv Xinxin was stunned at the time!
But she didn’t take it too seriously. She thought Shangguan Xue acted that way because she was drunk, but later she realized it wasn’t because of the alcohol.
She had just used the courage from drinking to express a deeply hidden secret.
"What’s there to worry about us both being girls! What era do you think we’re in?"
Knowing she still hadn’t given up, Lv Xinxin sighed helplessly and changed the subject, "Alright, let’s not talk about this anymore. I called you to discuss some business! Besides, I have something very important to tell you, which is that I have a boyfriend now, I’m no longer single!"
"What? You have a boyfriend? Are you joking? Who could possibly be good enough for you? You better not randomly settle because of me."
"What are you saying? There’s no way I’d settle. Honestly, I used to think no guy could match me, but now I realize there actually is one."
While responding, she again thought of the previous flirtation with Xiaobei in the cave...
As soon as she thought of it, she couldn’t help but blush...
"Where are you? Where are you now?"
Knowing she was preparing to come find her, Lv Xinxin chuckled and mentioned her location, "I’m at the Sun Family’s place!"
"Sun’s place? Okay! I know where that is, wait for me, I’ll be there soon. I want to have a good talk with you, by the way, is that boyfriend of yours there?"
"He’s here too!"
"Great, tell him not to leave, I want to meet him and see if he really has three-headed and six-armed courage to dare snatch my person."
"I..."
Lv Xinxin wanted to say more, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she sighed.
Because at that moment, the ’beep beep’ busy tone was already coming from the earpiece.
Lv Xinxin knew she had obviously already hung up the phone.
"If I guessed right, she’s likely already on her way here in a hurry!"
Muttering lightly, Lv Xinxin tossed her phone aside...
After that, she quickly looked at herself in the mirror.
Seeing her flushed cheeks, she gently reached out and touched them...
...
"She must be lying to me, she must be lying to me, who else could have the right to be with her besides me!"
After getting in the car, Shangguan Xue quickly mumbled in frustration...
Shangguan Xue had known Lv Xinxin for a long time, at first, she merely admired her, but later, as they spent more time together, she felt that Lv Xinxin was really quite wonderful, so her heart gradually moved.
After her heart was moved, she didn’t suppress her thoughts, she directly confessed...
But the confession failed!
She wasn’t discouraged, she thought she had been too hasty, that over time, Lv Xinxin would accept her...
But now, Cheng Yaojin appeared out of nowhere...
This made her furious...
So she decided to dash straight to Lv Xinxin, ready to ask her clearly and also ready to see this so-called boyfriend of Lv Xinxin, to see if he really deserved her.
...
"Why do I feel a sliver of killing intent?"
Outside in the courtyard, Xiaobei shivered all over, not knowing why, he felt a hint of subtle killing intent.
"Have I offended someone lately?"
Xiaobei thought quickly but had no clue whatsoever.
"When the enemy arrives, I’ll defend; when the water comes, I’ll use earth to cover it up. I should find out soon."
Muttering this to himself, Xiaobei didn’t think too much about it, he was just about to pour himself a glass of water when he heard Lv Xinxin’s slightly shy voice.
"Xiaobei, are you outside? I’ve rested enough; could you come over?"
"Okay!"
Agreeing, Xiaobei began to approach her room once more.
When he opened the door, Xiaobei caught the elegant fragrance again.
At the same time, he saw her sitting slightly shy on the bed, like a little wife waiting for her husband to return.
"Xinxin, what’s up?"
Asking as he sat down quickly beside her.
This startled Lv Xinxin, causing her to jump up.
Earlier, she had taken off her shoes, so when she jumped up, she was barefoot on the floor.
Which Xiaobei found particularly amusing.
"Xinxin, is it necessary to be like this? Am I a tiger?"
He looked at Lv Xinxin and spoke softly.
"You’re scarier than a tiger."
Hearing such a response, Xiaobei’s eye twitched, not sure what to say.
"Haha, Xiaobei, I’m just teasing you!"
"I know!"
With a gentle smile, Xiaobei looked her over again, then spoke softly, "So can you tell me now, why you wanted me here? Want to chat?"
"Yes! About business!"
She deliberately emphasized the business part.
This left Xiaobei speechless.
Seeing Xiaobei’s speechless expression, she giggled and said, "It’s like this, Xiaobei, the jade mine needs to be developed soon!"
"Hmm, earlier, I already discussed it with Sun Gangmeng. He’s started preparing now and should start mining in the afternoon."
"That’s good! Regarding follow-up matters, I’ve already made contacts. My good friend will come over later, and we can have a proper talk about cooperation!"
"Your good friend? You plan to work with her? Is it reliable?"
"Yes! Although she’s my good friend, she’s an especially powerful businesswoman, with a number of high-end jade stores under her management. So whatever amount we produce here, she can take it all."
Hearing her detailed explanation, Xiaobei’s eyes lit up, "That’s really good news!"
"Hmm, there’s more good news, do you want to hear it?"
Her words piqued his curiosity, so Xiaobei looked at her warmly, "More good news? What is it?"
Seeing Xiaobei’s keen interest in her, she smiled lazily and whispered mysteriously, "My good friend is still single! You could think of a way to win her over, then we wouldn’t have to give her any sales commission, and we could own those jade outlets."
Freezing slightly, Xiaobei murmured, "Win her over? Are you... are you serious or just joking?"
Xiaobei was really speechless because he didn’t know what to say about such a proposal.
Seeing Xiaobei speechless, Lv Xinxin smiled faintly.
In fact, she had carefully thought this proposal through.
She knew Shangguan Xue had a peculiar attachment to her, and she found this attachment very troublesome, so she wanted Xiaobei to pursue her.
In her view, as long as Xiaobei succeeded, Shangguan Xue would certainly not continue her attachment to her in the future.
Seeing Xiaobei’s frustrated look, she chuckled, "Of course it’s for real! Do you not have confidence in your own charm? My good friend is really beautiful!"
"I..."
Xiaobei was about to say something when suddenly noises came from outside...
