However, one could recognize Fu Huai’an’s exceptional pride.
It was rare that Lu Jinnan suppressed his fury and sat there smiling in front of Tang Xi instead of flying into a rage!
It wasn’t that Lu Jinnan couldn’t outspeak Tang Xi, but at this moment, there was a strong need for news of Lu Jinnan and Tang Xi “chatting amiably.”
Tang Xi also gave him a face, picking up the teacup and taking a sip. He said, “I have no idea what you guys are planning, but I feel that at least at the current moment, it’s beneficial and has no harm to the Jiahe Corporation. Therefore… this tea, I’ll drink it!”
It was rare for Tang Xi to be used by others willingly.
Who within the country didn’t know of Fu Huai’an’s reputation?
If other people thought that Fu Huai’an wanted to enter the Jiahe Corporation, it would be a good thing for the Jiahe Corporation! At the very least, this seemed like a very good thing for now!
After Tang Xi put down the teacup, he saw that Fu Huai’an was still outside on the phone. He asked Lu Jinnan, “Fu Huai’an is bent on bringing down the Kaide Corporation?”
“Why, President Tang doesn’t wish to see this?” Lu Jinnan smiled and asked Tang Xi.
“Of course, I wish to!” Tang Xi leaned back comfortably in his chair, and that hand on the table that was wearing a branded watch knocked gently on the solid wood. He smiled softly, and his voice was low and alluring. “The Kaide Corporation is gradually but fiercely rising up. I don’t wish to see a corporation that is comparable to the Jiahe Corporation popping up just like that.”
Lu Jinnan nodded. “I also feel that President Tang should think this way…”
Tang Xi was speechless.
Lu Jinnan was really tight-lipped. He was extremely good at diverting the focus, refusing to speak the truth.
After taking a look at his watch, Tang Xi felt that it was about time and said to Lu Jinnan, “I still have to go home and spend time with my wife. If President Lu doesn’t have any other matters, then I’ll be leaving first.”
“President Tang, what’s the hurry?” Seeing that Tang Xi’s cup was empty, Lu Jinnan filled it up again. “Our President Fu still has a great gift for President Tang. We can’t possibly let President Tang go back empty-handed after coming to have tea with us. That wouldn’t look nice!”
Tang Xi narrowed his eyes slightly, seeming as if his interest was piqued.
It didn’t take long before Fu Huai’an hung up the phone and walked in.
Tang Xi looked at Fu Huai’an, who was wearing a dark gray s.h.i.+rt and formal trousers. He felt that Fu Huai’an had been tempered to become even calmer over the years. It might be because he had experienced too much in life, as even his expression appeared to be profound and unfathomable. The pits of his deep-set eyes seemed indifferent, yet they hid countless past events and stories. His disposition was so strong that it made others feel suffocated.
Fu Huai’an seemed as if he only wore gentle smiles when his wife, Lin Nuan, was around.
Watching as Fu Huai’an slowly sat down in front of him, Tang Xi acted in a slovenly and loose manner and sorted out his suit, asking, “What great gift does President Tang wish to give to me? I do have some expectations about this…”
Fu Huai’an smiled and took a look at Lu Jinnan, who then casually handed a set of doc.u.ments to Tang Xi.
Tang Xi’s brows raised, and his peach blossom eyes narrowed slightly. When he opened it up and saw the contents inside, his brows relaxed slightly.
“These are the lowest bids of the other companies, excluding the Kaide Corporation, for the new project that the government has for the new energy city. If the Jiahe Corporation knows the lowest price these companies can offer, your chances of winning will be higher…” Fu Huai’an’s said slowly in his mellow and rich voice.
Tang Xi was stunned. He hadn’t expected that Fu Huai’an would be able to get his hands on something like this.
He didn’t take a look in detail, closing up the doc.u.ment after taking a brief look at it. Although he was smiling, his smile didn’t reach his eyes. “I’ll be accepting this great gift!”
Tang Xi stood up and extended his hand toward Fu Huai’an. “There are paparazzi around. Let’s end this by displaying a cordial mood!”
Tang Xi knew that Fu Huai’an and Lu Jinnan must have wanted to let others see them seated together, which was why they made the trip personally to give him such a set of doc.u.ments. Tang Xi wasn’t an ingrate who didn’t know how to repay the kindness of others.
This project was a big piece of meat that everyone wished to get their hands on! With this data, Tang Xi would have a higher chance of winning after calculating the costs.
Fu Huai’an readily accepted the good advice, standing up and shaking Tang Xi’s hands. Lu Jinnan also shook hands with Tang Xi.
The two of them personally sent Tang Xi downstairs, and after Tang Xi got into his car and left, Lu Jinnan lit up a cigarette and hung it at the corner of his mouth. He put both hands into his pockets and asked, biting the cigarette, “Are we returning to Haicheng now?”
“I’ll be going to a place to collect the wedding rings for Lin Nuan and myself!” Fu Huai’an smiled at Lu Jinnan, opened the door to the front pa.s.senger’s seat, and got in.
Lu Jinnan then went to the driver’s seat and got in.
“Has the wedding date for you and Lin Nuan been decided?” Lu Jinnan put on his seatbelt and asked.
“Not yet, but we’ll need to do so soon!” Fu Huai’an took out a cigarette, bit it in the corner of his lips, and lowered his head to light it with one hand protecting the flames. He then smiled and said, “Wearing a wedding dress while pregnant with a big stomach doesn’t look good. Lin Nuan likes to keep up a beautiful appearance…”
Lu Jinnan rolled down the car window and flicked his cigarette ashes outside, feeling a little surprised. “You’re ready to have children?”
“En, Lin Nuan is still young and will be able to recuperate better after giving birth!” Fu Huai’an said very casually.
“You’re no longer young either!” Lu Jinnan started the car and turned the steering wheel while biting onto the cigarette. “It’s time to have children!”
“En, you aren’t young either…” Fu Huai’an said.
Lu Jinnan was speechless.
His old pal’s words were really heart-wrenching! Lu Jinnan did want to have children, but he would need Bai Xiaonian to agree!
It was another matter on whether Bai Xiaonian was willing to marry him…
Lu Jinnan had brought up wanting to get married to Bai Xiaonian previously. After all, he was the one who had taken Bai Xiaonian’s first time, and he wanted to be responsible. However, Bai Xiaonian said that in this era, no one got married after having s.e.x once. It’d be too irresponsible to their lives. Moreover, this wasn’t the feudal era!
Lu Jinnan’s temper was blown away.
Putting aside the fact that Fu Huai’an had Tuan Tuan, Tang Zheng also suddenly had Little Candy, who was already so old. Lu Jinnan was truly envious.
He felt that it’d be good to have a daughter like Little Candy as well. She’d be so lively and adorable!
…
Because there had been arrangements for Fu Huai’an to come over and collect the rings, the jewelry shop’s manager had been waiting at the VIP elevator in the underground parking lot with his employees. Even the parking lot had been reserved for Fu Huai’an.
Seeing that Lu Jinnan had parked the car at the entrance, the manager immediately went up to open the door for Fu Huai’an. “Mr. Fu!”
Fu Huai’an nodded.
Lu Jinnan rolled down the car window and said to Fu Huai’an, “I’ll make a call and will be waiting for you in the car!”
Fu Huai’an followed the manager upstairs and sat on a comfortable sofa.
A female staff member wearing a uniform and black gloves brought out the two matching rings with great seriousness, placing them in front of Fu Huai’an.
Fu Huai’an picked up the women’s ring and looked at the interior that had a ring of embedded diamonds, stroking it gently with his hand. The embedded diamonds weren’t easily detectable.
The staff member got on her knees next to Fu Huai’an and said in a soft voice while wearing a smile, “This pair of matching rings is called ‘Congenial’. Our Italian chief designer personally made them for Mr. and Mrs. Fu. The diamonds are all embedded inside, and there is one less diamond in the women’s ring. That diamond is embedded in the men’s ring!”
