"Pfft, no matter how handsome, he's still not as handsome as my Prince Charming..."

Li Jie couldn't help but make a face as she said this.

Somehow,

she also admitted to herself that Qin Feng, once he put on a suit, really looked like a different person, incredibly handsome—despite her not wanting to admit it.

"Alright, after buying clothes, let's go buy a present for grandma! She likes antique decoration, so let's go to the antique city!"

Xu Yunxiao suggested.

"You really don't need to ingratiate yourself with her..."

Qin Feng muttered.

Hearing this, Xu Yunxiao got annoyed and said, "Without ingratiating myself, what will become of my company, just gift it to someone else? We should hurry up then."

The three of them headed off to the antique city.

...

At the Xu Mansion,

the elite of the family were all gathered in the living room, waiting for news of success from Xu Changjian.

Grandma was grinning from ear to ear,

and even brewed some top-grade puerh tea she usually was reluctant to drink.

Finally,

Xu Changjian returned home, travel-weary.

"Jian'er, how did it go?"

Grandma eagerly went up to him, her eyes sparkling with joy.

"Don't worry, I've settled it!"

Xu Changjian lifted his head and took a big gulp of water, saying excitedly.

His "settled it" let grandma, as well as the other family members, finally drop the stone that had been hanging in their hearts.

"Great, my Xu family is going to flourish and prosper!"

Grandma wiped away tears of excitement.

"Brother Jian, hurry up and tell us, how did you negotiate? I want to learn from you, gain some experience!"

Xu Yaxin and others said excitedly.

Xu Changjian continued with enthusiasm: "Do you know if Wanfu Building has any events going on? Haha, on the night of Qixi, Wanfu Building has a 'Qixi Love' themed outdoor restaurant, only inviting one couple from Lake City, and even has celebrity performances!"

"Just think, besides Young Master Zhou and Young Master Liu, who else could have this privilege? That means, on that night, there'll be quite a few Big Shots attending! You can imagine how difficult it would be to book Wanfu Building for a birthday banquet, right?"

On hearing this, everyone's eyes widened with astonishment.

Originally, Wanfu Building doesn't accept birthday banquet reservations and it was extremely difficult to book. And given it was grandma's birthday on the night of Qixi, coupled with the star performance, it's easy to see that for the Xu family's status in Lake City, it would be impossible to book!

"I got a reservation, haha!"

Xu Changjian laughed proudly, "And what's more, we got the best banquet hall on the sixth floor—for a 50% discount!!"

"A 50% discount?!"

People gasped at the implication.

To hold a banquet there was very expensive.

To save half of the funds was a huge deal!

"Jian'er is truly the most capable child of our Xu family, grandma has not pampered you for nothing!"

Grandma said excitedly.

"Right, how about the matter with Haohan Company?"

Xu Yaxin asked at this moment.

Everyone turned their excited glances towards him again.

"Err, there was a bit of a mishap..." Xu Changjian's expression became a bit embarrassed.

The hearts that were originally excited suddenly sank!

Xu Changjian reluctantly recounted his experience at Haohan Company, indignantly said, "Those snobbish guys, they actually told me to get lost, outrageous! —— Fortunately, I booked Wanfu Building..."

The room fell silent.

People's faces turned dim, not knowing what to say.

Haohan Company was the most important.

Without reaching a cooperation with Haohan, going to Wanfu Building for a birthday banquet was a sheer waste.

"Why do they only want Xu Yunxiao to go?"

Someone began to question at this point.

"Could it be that someone at Haohan Company has taken a liking to Xu Yunxiao? Our family is not lacking in beauties, why not let someone else try?"

Xu Changjian said.

As long as it wasn't Xu Yunxiao, he could accept anyone who succeeded in the negotiations.

"Grandma, let me give it a try!"

Xu Yaxin spoke up.

Although she was not as beautiful as Xu Yunxiao, she could still be considered a complete beauty.

Love this story? Show your support on *.

"Alright, the burden of the family now rests on your shoulders."

Grandma said.

Soon.

Xu Yaxin changed into a more revealing outfit, even deliberately unbuttoning the top a little, and drove straight to Haohan Company...

An hour later.

She came back dejected, equally indignant: "Those bastards who look down on people!"

Clearly.

She was also kicked out.

"Ah..."

Grandma sighed heavily and said to Xu Changjian, "Call Yunxiao!"

There was no other way.

Haohan Company was just too important for the Xu family!

Even if they disliked her so much, at this time, they had to endure.

Xu Changjian was also very distressed but had no choice but to obey grandma and call Xu Yunxiao...

...

Antique City, Yuxuan Hall shop.

Xu Yunxiao looked at a jade hairpin in her hand, feeling extremely troubled, knowing that Grandma liked jade hairpins, but this hairpin cost sixty thousand yuan.

She had just solved the company's cash flow problem, but her personal account was still empty.

At this moment.

Xu Changjian called her.

Seeing this, Qin Feng, who was nearby, first stopped Xu Yunxiao from answering the phone, saying, "Do you remember what I told you last night?"

"What did you say?" Xu Yunxiao didn't understand.

"If they ask you to negotiate a partnership with Haohan Company, don't agree!" Qin Feng said.

"Stop joking, as if they would talk to me about that!"

Xu Yunxiao rolled her eyes at him and then answered the phone.

After hearing what Xu Changjian said.

She was completely stunned.

Turns out, Xu Changjian was actually talking to her about negotiating a partnership with Haohan Company!

For a moment, she felt dazed, looked at Qin Feng, recalled what he had said, and on a whim, said to Xu Changjian: "No, I won't go!"

After saying that, she hung up the phone, still unable to calm her emotions.

Li Jie, seeing this, anxiously said, "Are you crazy! How can you not go? That's wasting an opportunity!"

Xu Yunxiao glanced at Qin Feng.

Li Jie got angry, "Was it you who told her not to go? Really the kind that is more trouble than help! Do you know how important Shuimu Company is to Yunxiao!"

"I'm well aware."

Qin Feng shrugged his shoulders.

Xu Mansion.

Xu Changjian, after being hung up on, became furious and exclaimed, "Grandma, isn't she being rebellious? She even hung up on me! I'm so mad..."

Grandma was also very angry.

But after hesitating for a long time, she finally said gravely, "I'll call her!"

Antique City.

Xu Yunxiao's phone rang again, and when she looked, it was grandma calling personally!

"Yunxiao, heh, I'm really sorry about last night, don't take it to heart, you are so capable, the family still relies on you to shine brightly, how about taking a trip to Haohan Company?"

Grandma said gently, laughing on the phone.

Xu Yunxiao felt at a loss, looked at Qin Feng, and Qin Feng shook his head at her, with a firm look in his eyes.

"Sorry, Grandma, I'm just Brother Chang Jian's assistant now, I no longer have the qualifications to negotiate with Haohan on behalf of Shuimu Company, please contact Brother Chang Jian!" Xu Yunxiao said, extremely nervous, and immediately hung up the phone.

"You, you actually listened to Qin Feng, are you insane!"

Li Jie said anxiously.

Xu Yunxiao was unclear why she trusted Qin Feng at this moment.

But for the first time, after daring to refuse Grandma's request, she suddenly felt very refreshed.

Like she had been suffocating under water for too long and finally surfaced, her mood suddenly cleared.

...

At this moment.

Xu Mansion.

Grandma, hearing the "doo doo" sound as the call was disconnected, her face looked as ugly as if she had eaten shit…
