A widow who killed her husband on her wedding day, what right did she have to act noble in front of him? Since Deputy President Chen of the Magnificent Island Group had taken a fancy to you, why didn't he quickly strip naked and climb onto his bed, did he want more things?
In Lu Min's eyes, Bai Mei being able to introduce an investment in Jiangnan City and using her body to help her husband, Secretary-general Lai, was already her greatest value. As a widow, Bai Mei must have the consciousness of a widow.
She was even more nervous than Lin Xiaoling. Earlier, she was the one who didn't let Yang Fann enter the house, and now that Yang Fann had left, Bai Mei was flustered and felt that Yang Fann was definitely angry. Now that she offended Yang Fann, he would probably never believe her again.
The reason why Bai Mei called Yang Fann was to prevent Lu Min from forcing her to date Deputy President Chen, but the most important part was still to be jealous of Lin Xiaoling. When Bai Mei thought of Yang Fann and Lin Xiaoling at the riverside, who were eating barbeque together, she became restless, as if she would lose the most precious thing in her life if she didn't call Yang Fann over right away.
But, calling Yang Fann over angrily, he didn't let him in. If it were those pretty boys who were raised by rich women, it would be normal, but who was Yang Fann? How could he be made fun of by Bai Mei?
Seeing that Bai Mei's expression wasn't so good, Lu Min was overjoyed. Calling you a widow and a grandma to pretend to be good was really embarrassing. Let's see how you will continue acting in front of me in the future.
He had long heard about Bai Mei's basic situation from Secretary-general Lai's underlings. He had no idea how many times he, Chen Xiong, had played a small widow for a long time, but this time, the reason he fell for Bai Mei's beauty was only one of the reasons he was interested in her property. Bai Mei's beauty was the most important reason.
Bai Mei came from a commoner background. She had no roots, no backers, and just had a billion-dollar fortune. She was like a child walking in a busy city with gold in her arms. All the greedy people wanted to share a piece with her.
He knew that Secretary-general Lai had already sent his underlings to deal with him. As long as he was willing to facilitate the investment in Jiangnan City, Secretary-general Lai would definitely think of a way to get Bai Mei to agree to be with him.
In Secretary-general Lai's eyes, merchants like Bai Mei were their pigs. They could kill whenever they wanted, and they could kill whenever they disobeyed. Even if these merchants were worth billions, they could still squash them whenever they wanted to!
"Forget it, Mei Zi. I know you are suffering. Didn't I introduce you to Deputy President Chen? As long as you agree to be Deputy President Chen's girlfriend and live a happy life in the future, perhaps even sister will be envious of you."
Lu Min didn't want to completely get into a deadlock with Bai Mei right now. She still needed to rely on Bai Mei to promote her husband to the throne. Lu Min didn't want to get into a deadlock with Bai Mei.
Lu Min had done a lot of things like this in the past. Her two goddaughters had been persuaded by her using all sorts of methods. Bai Mei was just a little widow and had such a large estate in the hands of her husband.
Lin Xiaoling knew that Bai Mei was in a bad mood, so she couldn't let her do whatever she wanted. After all, the Crystal Palace was still a place with thirty percent of the Jiangnan City; if they still wanted to continue doing business in the future, they couldn't afford to offend Lu Min to death.
Lu Min felt that she was almost done with her work. She knew how to take proper care of herself, and that she had to stop when the time was right. It would not do her any good to do it herself.
"Mei Zi, let's go inside the house to chat. I'm a bit thirsty right now, let's have a cup of tea."
Lu Min was truly worthy of being a good example of Madam's diplomacy. She used the method of beating a stick to give a sweet jujube and was extremely proficient. She pulled Bai Mei back into the house and beckoned everyone to go to the teahouse for tea.
The several people in the tea shop had already left when Lu Min was receiving Deputy President Chen. Now, only Yang Fann was left in the restaurant. When Lu Min led the crowd in, she immediately saw a young man wolfing down his food.
In front of Yang Fann, there was a table full of refreshments. There were all kinds of snacks, dried fruits and several kinds of beverages. Yang Fann was stuffing food into his mouth.
Yang Fann clearly heard what Lu Min said to the rest of them in the living room, including what they said outside. Of course, he knew that Bai Mei was being mocked by Lu Min.
However, Yang Fann didn't have the intention to go out and help Bai Mei. He wasn't one of those little bumpkins in movies or television dramas, he would only follow behind a woman's butt all day to curry favor. Since Bai Mei dared to let him play at night, Yang Fann wouldn't just run over and ask for trouble.
He wanted to teach Bai Mei a lesson. If Bai Mei was really bullied, Yang Fann wouldn't just stand by and watch. Even if a stranger was in trouble, he would stand up for her, let alone a beauty like Bai Mei who was on good terms with him.
"You are …"
Lu Min was stupefied when she saw Yang Fann gorging himself. She didn't remember calling this young man to soak in the hot spring tonight, nor did she see him when she received Deputy President Chen. She also didn't know what kind of god this young man who ate in such a disrespectful manner was.
There were only two possibilities for such an occasion, in front of so many reputable people, to continue feasting freely. Either the young man was a fool, or he was fearless.
It was impossible for a fool to enter a wooden house that was under the command of the Secretary-General's wife, so there was only one answer. This young man who seemed to be devoid of food must have a great background.
"Oh, hello everyone. Take a seat. You're welcome. I just came in to eat something. I'm full, so I'm leaving."
Yang Fann waved nonchalantly at everyone, just like how the leader would when he saw his subordinates. He had a carefree expression on his face, which shocked Lu Min.
Lu Min was stunned. She was too familiar with the temperament that Yang Fann displayed. Last time, she participated in a party organized by the upper class young masters with Secretary-general Lai.
