Chapter 478: Acting
Zhao Guiquan looked at Yun Xiangxiang for a while, then looked at his father, who was trying his best to endure it. It was as if if he dared to dawdle for another minute, he would pick up the ashtray and throw it at him.
In the end, he tactfully chose not to use his life to probe at the edge of death and quietly left the room.
The door was not closed. Yun Xiangxiang sat in the sofa area with Zhao Long, and Zhao Long directly asked. “Miss Yun Xiangxiang, have you seen my daughter?”
“Miss Zhao?” Yun Xiangxiang looked at Zhao Long in surprise. “You don’t suspect that I kidnapped your daughter, do you?”
It was no secret that Zhao Guibi’s disappearance was reported in the newspaper in Hubei Province.
Zhao Long looked at Yun Xiangxiang’s confused look and couldn’t help but be uncertain. “It was my daughter who asked me to buy EI’s bag within two hours. After that, I found out that Miss Yun Xiangxiang happened to have a bet with my son.”
“I see.” Yun Xiangxiang took out her phone. “Two days ago, the day after I made a bet with Mr. Zhao, I received this text message.”
“Chairman Zhao will solve your problem for you.”
“Who are you?”
“You don’t need to know who I am. Don’t worry about the bet between myself and Zhao Guiquan.”
Of course, these text messages were arranged with Zhao Guibi on the second day. Zhao Guibi used her phone to send them to Yun Xiangxiang.
Zhao Long actually didn’t remember his daughter’s phone number. He took out his phone book and checked it. It was indeed Zhao Guibi’s phone number.
Then, yesterday, Yun Xiangxiang sent some content that seemed to be urging him. It wasn’t until eight o’clock last night that the other party gave him the exact time.
“Actually, I’m also very curious about how this person knows. I’m guessing that it was someone arranged by Chairman Zhao. I hope that the big issue will be resolved and the small issue will be resolved. I’m thinking that I have to give Chairman Zhao some face no matter what.”
Yun Xiangxiang thought about how she was magnanimous, and the corner of Zhao Long’s lips could not help but twitch.
It was as if she did not see Zhao Long’s expression, Yun Xiangxiang continued. “However, I’ve also made two preparations. Fortunately, Chairman Zhao managed to resolve my predicament in time. You also know that I’m just a small actor, and my total net worth is not even 100 million. When that time comes, I’ll have no choice but to go and beg someone….”
Beg for help? From whom?
Yun Xiangxiang and Zhao Long were well aware of this. Yun Xiangxiang thought that this could be considered as telling him that she had not told Song Mian about this matter, and that she did not intend to shed all pretense of cordiality with them,
Even though Zhao Long knew that Yun Xiangxiang was putting on an act for him, there was nothing he could do about it, and there was no reason for him to question her.
As for his daughter’s matter, he was thinking too much right now…
Yun Xiangxiang thought that she should not have interacted with Zhao Guibi before this. Zhao Guibi was very guarded, and no one could suddenly gain her trust.
Therefore, Yun Xiangxiang thought that it was unlikely that he would work together with Zhao Guibi.
Then how did Zhao Guibi know about the bet between Zhao Guiquan and Yun Xiangxiang Jing? Even he had bought something last night and had sent people to check after he found that EI’s inventory was abnormal.
He had thought that Zhao Guibi was deliberately tormenting him, but after checking it out, he found out that this idiot Zhao Guiquan had almost caused a big mess.
Based on his understanding of his own children, if this matter with Zhao Guiquan was successful, it would definitely be exaggerated.
But before it was successful, it was impossible for him to spit it out. Then, didn’t Zhao Guibi find out from Yun Xiangxiang? Could it be that he had placed someone he trusted around Zhao Guiquan?
Thinking of this possibility, and thinking of the things that Zhao Guibi had sent him, Zhao Long felt a chill run down his spine.
“This phone number is Miss Zhao’s? Why would miss Zhao do that?” Yun Xiangxiang frowned and pondered.
Since the matter was related to her, she naturally had a reason to get to the bottom of it.
On the contrary, Zhao Long was questioned by Yun Xiangxiang, but he couldn’t give a perfunctory answer to Yun Xiangxiang. He felt extremely stifled.
However, he definitely could not tell Yun Xiangxiang about his family matters, he could only say vaguely. “The brother and sister are not on good terms. I didn’t expect to involve Miss Yun Xiangxiang in this. It’s our Zhao family’s fault. Miss Yun Xiangxiang, please forgive me. I will definitely teach them a good lesson.”
Zhao Long was still very powerful. Zhao Guiquan’s intentions towards her had clearly been exposed, but he just had to put this matter aside.
It meant that Zhao Guiquan was looking for trouble with her, and that it was the reason why the two siblings were fighting. As long as Zhao Guiquan did not have any designs on her, Song Mian could not interfere in this matter.
As for Zhao Guiquan and Zhao Guibi implicating her, she did not have much to lose. After all, those who did not know were innocent, right?
People who had been in the business world for a long time spoke differently. Yun Xiangxiang could not hold on to it.
She could only exclaim in a neutral tone. “So that’s how it is. As expected, the G.o.ds fight and the mortals suffer. It seems that my luck isn’t good.”
“These two juniors don’t know what’s good for them. Miss Yun Xiangxiang is magnanimous and will forgive them this once.” Zhao Long smiled politely. “I will definitely remember Miss Yun Xiangxiang’s kindness.”
“I’m not a person who won’t forgive others for being petty.” Yun Xiangxiang nodded to indicate that she wouldn’t pursue the matter.
However, she changed the topic and asked. “Chairman Zhao, you bought so many bags. I wonder what you plan to do with them?”
Zhao Long knew what she meant and immediately said. “I was worried about how to deal with them. If Miss Yun Xiangxiang likes them, I’ll give them all to her.”
Since he had already bought them, he could only use the channels that Yun Xiangxiang had in mind. He could either use them for charity or give them away.
As the chairman of the Hengsheng Group, if he suddenly sold the bags, those who did not know would think that there was a problem with his money chain and that he had to rely on selling his son’s wife’s luxury goods to make money.
If he dared to sell the bags, then the stock price of Hengsheng would definitely fall. Coincidentally, Zhao Guibi was not around at this time, so no one knew what the outside world would think of the Zhao family.
The losses caused would definitely not be covered by these bags.
He did not know how long he would have to keep them for. It would not be appropriate to give them away after the season was over. He did not have the time and energy to attend charity events now.
Yun Xiangxiang about it. Since she wanted them, he would give them to her. It would also help to smooth things over.
He did not need to worry about Song Mian’s troubles anymore. He just needed to focus on dealing with the troubles at home.
However, even Zhao Long, who was worth tens of billions, felt his heart ache. More than 100 million was thrown away by the combined efforts of two prodigal sons.
“Then thank you for your generosity, Chairman Zhao. It would be impolite of me to decline.” Yun Xiangxiang accepted it gladly.
Zhao Long heaved a sigh of relief instead. This could be considered as pacifying the Buddha, so he did not have much time to exchange pleasantries with Yun Xiangxiang.
Although Yun Xiangxiang was as beautiful as a fairy and Zhao Long was also l.u.s.tful, he did not dare to have any ill intentions,
To Zhao Long, there were only three words carved on Yun Xiangxiang’s forehead: Song Mian’s woman.
He wished that he could draw a clear line between these kinds of women. “Miss Yun Xiangxiang, there are still a lot of trivial matters at home. You are also busy with your personal matters. I have already sent someone to discuss the rights to the shopping mall with the production team’s director. I won’t hold you back from starting your filming.”
“Thank you for your convenience, Chairman Zhao. I won’t disturb you.” Yun Xiangxiang left with satisfaction.
