Dashing Student

Chapter 252 - 252, Need to Increase the Price

Wang Li was just an ordinary person.

She was very satisfied with her current life.

She had an easy job, and her salary was not low either.

And there was Chen Nan, her boyfriend.

She felt that her life had already reached its peak.

But what she would never have dared to dream was that one day, someone would actually hand her a check worth five million!

Five million!

This was a fortune that countless people could not earn in their entire lives.

Yet today,

she had just spent an hour with Chen Nan doing something she loved, and this huge sum of money had fallen on her head. How could she not be shocked?

"If it’s given to you, just take it. It’s what you deserve," Chen Nan said with a smile, his eyes also showing a hint of appreciation as he looked at Yu Xiaomin.

It was clear that this woman knew how to deal with people and the world.

Wang Li struggled to contain her excitement and cautiously put away the check.

She had also completed the transformation from an ordinary person to a wealthy woman!

Yu Xiaomin spoke with a trace of nervousness, "Mr. Chen, my husband called earlier. He has found the descendant of the tomb’s owner and has obtained their forgiveness."

"Whenever you have time, could you help our Zhao Family find a feng shui treasure spot?"

Chen Nan frowned slightly, his tone slightly displeased, "I don’t recall ever promising to help your Zhao Family find a feng shui treasury."

Although he had turned misfortune into fortune on Yu Xiaomin’s account, completing the Purification,

that did not mean he had to help the Zhao Family find a burial site with good feng shui.

After all,

it was Yu Xiaomin who brought him that misfortune.

The fact that he was able to survive was partly due to his own willpower and partly because Wang Li appeared in time. It could not be confused.

Yu Xiaomin: "We’ll increase the payment!"

Chen Nan pondered for a moment and said, "Add another five million, not a penny less!"

Chen Nan loved beauties, and he loved money.

For a cultivator to rise, one cannot do without the four resources of ’wealth,’ ’companion,’ ’method,’ and ’land.’

Wealth comes first.

But still,

Chen Nan had always believed that a gentleman loves money and obtains it in a proper way.

The reason he agreed to the price of five million to save Yu Xiaomin and her son was because he knew how dangerous it was to save her.

And indeed,

he almost lost his life.

Although selecting a feng shui burial site seems simple,

Chen Nan was well aware that the difficulty of this task was by no means less than that of removing the sinister energy from Yu Xiaomin’s body.

The reason is simple.

The sinister energy in Yu Xiaomin’s body was exceptionally dense, which clearly showed how intense the resentment of the tomb’s owner was, and also indicated that the tomb was a rare feng shui treasure.

To have the Zhao Family’s ancestors enter a new burial site, one must choose a feng shui treasure that is better than the previous tomb, and this is where the difficulty skyrockets.

This was why Chen Nan had demanded five million.

"Okay," Yu Xiaomin agreed to Chen Nan’s price.

Chen Nan: "It’s too late today, let’s go to your husband’s ancestral home first thing tomorrow morning to promptly find a feng shui burial site for the Zhao Family."

Yu Xiaomin couldn’t help asking, "Do I have to go too?"

Chen Nan asked curiously, "Isn’t the fetus in your belly supposed to have the Zhao family name?"

Yu Xiaomin’s face turned red as she said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Do I seem like the kind of person who messes around with men and women..."

Before she could finish, her voice suddenly stopped, and her eyes revealed an embarrassed look.

She indeed was not the kind of person who messed around with relationships.

But.

Her words had no persuasive power in front of Chen Nan.

Because she had shown him her most wanton side.

At that moment.

The nanny’s voice came from the dining room: "Madam, it’s time for dinner."

Yu Xiaomin hummed in response, looking at Chen Nan and Wang Li, and said softly, "Let’s have dinner first. We will set off for Qingcheng Town first thing in the morning." Saying this, she helped Wang Li towards the dining room.

Wang Li had been tormented by Chen Nan for an hour, with severe swelling in her lower body, completely unable to walk normally, and for that reason had stayed at the Zhao family’s home.

Chen Nan cleared his throat: "I’ll help her!" he said, supporting Wang Li as they made their way to the dining room.

It might have been because there was an extra person.

Or perhaps it was in celebration of the yin evil qi within her being expelled, saving the lives of both mother and child, Yu Xiaomin had asked the nanny to prepare a lavish dinner.

There was an array of delicious mountain and sea delicacies.

Especially the emperor crab weighing more than ten pounds, and the palm-sized black gold abalone, which Wang Li had never even seen before.

Just as the three of them had just seated themselves at the dining table.

Chen Nan’s phone started ringing, displaying Jiang Li’s number.

He answered the call, and before he had a chance to speak, Jiang Li’s irritated voice came through: "You’re not sleeping at this hour, are you?"

Chen Nan looked at the delicacies in front of him and laughed: "I haven’t even had dinner, how could I possibly be sleeping?"

Jiang Li: "Then come out and drink with this young lady."

Chen Nan covered the mouthpiece of his phone and then looked at Yu Xiaomin: "Would you mind if I invited a friend over for dinner?"

Yu Xiaomin smiled brightly: "Why would I mind that?"

After getting Yu Xiaomin’s consent, Chen Nan spoke into the phone: "You might as well come here, I’ll send you the address now."

Jiang Li snorted coldly, speaking arrogantly: "Without mountain and sea delicacies, you can’t invite this young lady out."

Chen Nan snapped the phone shut, took a photo of the dinner table with his phone, and sent it directly to Jiang Li, along with the address.

Jiang Li replied instantly: "Are Taoists living so luxuriously now?"

"Wait for me, this young lady will be there in about half an hour."

Chen Nan laughed and put down his phone: "Let’s start eating!"

Yu Xiaomin forced a smile and said: "Let’s wait a while, starting without your friend would make it seem like the Zhao family doesn’t have good manners."

Chen Nan showed an awkward smile: "Then we’ll wait a while!"

In truth, he wouldn’t have minded starting early, and he believed that Jiang Li, with her straightforward personality, wouldn’t have minded either—after all, she was a very frank woman.

But Yu Xiaomin, as the lady of the Zhao family, had spoken such words, so he had no choice but to wait.

Although Jiang Li said it would take about half an hour to arrive, she only took twenty minutes. She didn’t come empty-handed either, carrying two bags of fruit, clearly showing she knew some social etiquette.

However.

When she saw there were two other beauties beside Chen Nan, Jiang Li’s eyes immediately showed a look of disdain, and though her lips parted slightly, she made no sound. But Chen Nan could tell she was cursing him for being a scumbag!

Chen Nan felt a bit awkward, thinking: I haven’t wronged you, so why are you caring about what I do?

Jiang Li was a straightforward woman. Although she wasn’t at Chen Nan’s home, she quickly mingled well with Yu Xiaomin and Wang Li. If it weren’t for Yu Xiaomin’s pregnancy, she would have definitely drunk a few more glasses with her.

After a hearty meal, by ten in the evening, Jiang Li stood up, her eyes bleary from drink, said goodbye to Yu Xiaomin, and also refused the offer of a lift home from Yu Xiaomin’s driver.

Jiang Li looked at Chen Nan, her beautiful eyes conveying a hint of anticipation: "Mr. Chen, would you take a walk with me?"
