"Gift for Chen Jie!"
Tang Hai said.
"Dad, didn't you already give him twenty million? And now you want to give a gift? Aren't we losing out big time?" Tang Wenwu complained.
"What do you know? That twenty million was for my medical expenses, it has nothing to do with a gift!"
Tang Hai continued, "This kid has so many masters fawning over him. If we want to curry favor with him, we'll have to bleed some money."
Tang Ruotong couldn't help but say, "But, as you saw, Chen Jie doesn't seem to be short of money. We already doubted him before, and he was displeased. If it's just a gift, will Chen Jie accept it?"
"Therefore, our gift must be unique!" Tang Hai said.
Speaking of which, Tang Hai waved his hand, "Let's go, let's go home and get those ancient jade pieces I collected!"
"Hiss, Dad, do we really have to do this?" Tang Wenwu gasped.
Tang Hai nodded, "Chen Jie's abilities are too strong. It's best to maintain a good relationship with someone like him. If our Tang family faces a catastrophe in the future, we can ask Chen Jie for protection at a critical moment. You all have too short-sighted a view!"
Tang Ruotong couldn't help but recall the scene at the club earlier, when Chen Jie pulled her onto his lap.
As a martial arts girl, she greatly admired men stronger than herself.
So, even though she was annoyed with Chen Jie, she had some other thoughts about him.
The three returned home and retrieved several ancient jade pieces.
"Have you found out where Chen Jie lives?" Tang Hai asked Tang Ruotong.
Tang Ruotong nodded. She had already directly asked Chen Jie via text message and knew where he lived.
Tang Hai paced back and forth, hesitating, "No, these things are not enough!"
He grabbed Tang Ruotong's wrist, "Daughter, Chen Jie is so young, he probably doesn't have a girlfriend yet. Why don't you try to get close to him?"
"Ah? I..." Tang Ruotong's pretty face flushed, but she didn't object.
Tang Wenwu, on the other hand, cried out, "Dad, this scumbag has caused us so much trouble, and you want my sister to give him..."
"If your sister doesn't find a boyfriend in Chen Jie, will she not date anyone in the future?" Tang Hai said.
Tang Wenwu thought about it and agreed, so he didn't argue further.
"But, if I go to pursue Chen Jie, he might not agree, right?" Tang Ruotong hesitated.
"I didn't ask you to pursue Chen Jie. That would be too slow. I have another idea."
The two looked at Tang Hai strangely.
...
More than ten minutes later, Tang Ruotong pointed at a giant gift box in front of her and exclaimed in disbelief, "What? Dad, you actually want me to get inside and send me out as a gift? This..."
It turned out that Tang Hai's idea was not only to have her get along with Chen Jie, but also to put her in a gift box and send her to Chen Jie.
She shook her head repeatedly, "No, this is treating me like an animal! It's not like I can't find a man. That eldest young master of the Ye family wants to pursue me! There's no need for me to do this."
"Daughter, Dad is doing this for your own good, you know?"
Tang Hai grabbed Tang Ruotong's wrist and said, "If you pursue Chen Jie, it might not succeed, and it would make our Tang family lose face."
"But if I directly send you as a gift, Chen Jie will only treat you as a gift. This way, the probability of him refusing will be very small."
"And he will even feel that we are very sincere."
"More importantly, you are a person, not really a gift. When you interact with Chen Jie, won't you be called his girlfriend anyway?"
"Listen to me, it'll be fine!"
Tang Ruotong struggled for a moment, then finally agreed, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
Saying that, she was about to get into the gift box.
"Wait." Tang Hai called out.
Tang Ruotong thought Tang Hai had changed his mind, but Tang Hai said, "Take off your clothes."
Whoosh!
A blush immediately appeared on Tang Ruotong's pretty face.
However, she had already decided to obey Tang Hai completely, so she did not refuse, but took off her skirt.
"I'll go find someone to help carry the gift, and we'll set off now!"
...
At West Mountain Villa, Wang Xiaoyan stretched and woke up from her slumber.
She couldn't help but nudge Jiang Xue beside her.
"Ah! I actually fell asleep just now!" Jiang Xue was startled and quickly sprang out of bed.
Her body was elastic.
Wang Xiaoyan teased with a smile, "Jiang Xue, this is Chen Jie's bed, you know!"
"What?"
Jiang Xue became extremely embarrassed and said, "Xiaoyan, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have slept here..."
"It's okay, maybe when Chen Jie becomes powerful in the future, you and I will both be Chen Jie's girlfriend!" Wang Xiaoyan winked.
"Don't talk nonsense, Chen, Chen Jie hasn't come back yet, let's go quickly."
Jiang Xue just wanted to escape now. She absolutely did not want Chen Jie, that bumpkin, to know that she had slept in Chen Jie's bed.
Otherwise, it would be bad if this bumpkin thought too much.
"Yes, it's also time for us to get busy with company matters."
Wang Xiaoyan suddenly had an urge to stay here, because the air here in Chen Jie's place was too fresh, and she had slept very soundly.
She took the initiative to tidy up Chen Jie's bed, removing any traces of their sleep, and then walked outside.
"Mengjiao, we're leaving. Tell Chen Jie when he gets back."
Wang Xiaoyan met Lin Mengjiao downstairs.
Lin Mengjiao hummed in response.
Then the two walked towards the door.
Buzz...
A car engine roared.
Immediately after, Chen Jie's sports car drove towards the villa.
Seeing this, Wang Xiaoyan said excitedly, "What a coincidence, Chen Jie is back."
"Xiaoyan, there are other people behind Chen Jie." Jiang Xue reminded.
Wang Xiaoyan looked back and saw that behind Chen Jie, there were more than a dozen luxury cars following.
"Xiaoyan, why are you leaving so soon?" Chen Jie got out of the car and asked Wang Xiaoyan, confused.
Wang Xiaoyan pointed behind Chen Jie, "Chen Jie, these are..."
"Oh, these are some friends I just made. I called them over to help me with some things," Chen Jie said.
Jiang Xue immediately sneered, "Didn't you go to see Tang Hai's illness? How did you make so many friends so quickly and bring them home?"
Chen Jie said lightly, "I made some friends while treating Tang Hai. Is that not allowed?"
"Heh, you just made two million, are you getting a bit too full of yourself?" Jiang Xue sneered.
Wang Xiaoyan also frowned.
The cars these people were driving were not ordinary. With two million, what kind of friends could Chen Jie make?
If he made friends so quickly, it was either because they were after Chen Jie's money, or they were some good-for-nothing young masters.
"Chen Jie, oh Chen Jie, you are truly surprising. Do you think that after earning two million, you can be reckless?"
"How am I being reckless?" Chen Jie frowned.
Jiang Xue said impolitely, "Let me tell you, ordinary friends are not friends. Don't think that just because you met someone recently, they can become your connections! True friends are people who can provide sincere help without any reward."
"Who told you they are all ordinary friends?"
Chen Jie asked confusedly.
The next second, after the more than a dozen cars had parked, Zhou Shu and the others also got out of their cars.
