"Is she interested in me?" Xue Chen was stunned and looked at Xiong Linlin suspiciously.
"Yeah, it's just that she's too shy to say it, so I'll say it for her." Xiong Linlin looked at Xue Chen with a smile, "Jiayi is so beautiful, I think you must have been attracted to her a long time ago."
Xue Chen laughed and glanced at Xiong Linlin, wondering how she could tell that he was attracted to Li Jiayi.
Xiong Linlin's idea is very simple, that is, to bring Xue Chen and Li Jiayi together. If the two really get together, then as a quasi-matchmaker and Li Jiayi's best friend, she will beg Xue Chen to speak for her father's company.
Will you still refuse?
Moreover, although she was reluctant, she had to admit that Xue Chen was indeed very good, and she was also happy to see Li Jiayi find a good home.
Doing this, if successful, will kill two birds with one stone.
"Stop pretending, I guess you must have been fascinated by Jiayi a long time ago." Xiong Linlin said with certainty.
Xue Chen glanced at Xiong Linlin, who was self-righteous and smart, with a strange look in his eyes. Just as he was about to speak, the cell phone in his pocket rang. When he took it out and saw that it was Sister Xuan, he picked it up.
"Xue Chen, you are still out of town. It has been many days. When will you return to Haicheng?" Ning Xuan asked in a faint tone.
Xue Chen thought for a while. After the capital was settled, he had to go to Urumqi to deal with the Hotan jade mine. He didn't know how long it would take to deal with it. He paused and replied: "Well, it may take a while.
Time, what's the matter? Sister Xuan."
"It's nothing important. It's just that without you, the perfume factory has no raw materials and has stopped working." Ning Xuanxuan said helplessly.
"Oh, that's it." Xue Chen suddenly realized.
Since the establishment of Tianxin Perfume Factory, the essential oils used are extracted from flowers that have been watered by his rejuvenation ability. Almost every half a month or so, someone from the flower base will find him and go to collect them.
Water infused with the breath of rejuvenation irrigates the flower base.
Now that he is no longer in Haicheng, and without the source of raw materials, the perfume base will naturally stop working.
"Oh, let's stop work first. Anyway, it won't last for a few days." Xue Chen said in an indifferent tone.
"That's easy to say. How many sellers are queuing up to buy goods now." Ning Xuanxuan muttered, "You have to come back quickly after finishing your work."
"Okay, I understand, I will do it as soon as possible." Xue Chen promised repeatedly.
At this time, Li Jiayi, who had gone to the bathroom, came back. After opening the door, she said to Xiong Linlin: "Linlin, are you mistaken? Where did the money go?"
Xiong Linlin said perfunctorily: "Maybe I saw it wrong."
"Huh? Xue Chen, who is talking?" Ning Xuanxuan on the other side of the phone very keenly caught the voice of a woman, and she could feel from the voice that she must be a very young girl.
Xue Chen calmed down and said, "It's two friends having dinner."
Ning Xuanxuan said suspiciously: "Eating? Two friends, two girls? They are eating, not other places, such as nightclubs, KTV..."
"It's really about eating." Xue Chen said firmly with an emphasis on his tone.
Xiong Linlin and Li Jiayi also faintly heard what Ning Xuanxuan said to Xue Chen on the other side of the phone. Li Jiayi didn't pay much attention to it, but Xiong Linlin was a little unhappy again, thinking that the woman on the other side regarded them as immoral women.
?
Also, who is this woman? Xiong Linlin noticed that Xue Chen was very tolerant and humble towards her, which made her secretly wonder, could she be Xue Chen's girlfriend?
"Oh, let me see if you are really eating." Ning Xuanxuan hummed.
Xue Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I'm really eating, what's so interesting about this."
Just as he shook his head with a wry smile, the call was hung up, but then a video invitation pop-up window popped up on the screen, and he had no choice but to pick it up.
After a few seconds of delay, the screen on the opposite side came over.
Xue Chen took a look and saw that Ning Xuanxuan should be at home. She seemed to have just taken a shower. Her hair was still a little wet. She was wearing purple pajamas and leaning against the bed. Her heart-shaped neckline revealed a piece of tender white, which was faintly visible.
The ridge at the top of the towering chest exudes an unparalleled mature and charming charm.
When Ning Xuanxuan saw that Xue Chen was indeed in a private room of a hotel, she raised her lips and snorted delicately: "You are quite honest."
"Do you believe me this time?" Xue Chen murmured, "Besides, even if I am in a nightclub, what will happen? Sister Xuan, are you being too lenient?"
"Tch, you think I am willing to take care of you. You are worried that if you mess around outside, you will be raided by the police, arrested, and detained. The other things are not important. Wouldn't it delay the production of the perfume factory?" Ning
Xuanxuan said with a reasonable look.
"Okay, I guess what you said makes sense, I'm going to eat, so hang up." Xue Chen shook his head.
At this time, Xiong Linlin, who was sitting opposite her eyes moved, stood up and walked around, glanced at Xue Chen's mobile phone screen from behind, and saw Ning Xuanxuan opposite her a few seconds before the video call was hung up.
Xue Chen turned around and looked at Xiong Linlin, who was peeking from behind, and asked, "What are you looking at?"
Xiong Linlin said with a slightly complicated expression: "Oh, I didn't see anything."
Xue Chen did not continue to pursue Xiong Linlin's peek just now. It was not a confidential matter, so she just watched it.
But Xiong Linlin had a different feeling in her heart. The reason why she peeked was because she felt that the relationship between the woman opposite and Xue Chen must not be simple. She was probably Xue Chen's girlfriend, even though she called her Sister Xuan.
, but the tone of speaking was not a normal sister-sister relationship at all.
As the saying goes, only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle. Since she wanted to match Xue Chen and Li Jiayi, she naturally wanted Xue Chen to be single. If he was not single, it didn't matter, she could just grab him.
She believed that with Li Jiayi's external conditions, she was definitely at the level of a goddess and could be called a killer of the first wife. As long as Jiayi was willing and stepped in, few men could resist her.
However, after taking a sneak peek just now, her idea was shaken. Although it was just a glimpse and the video call was not very clear, she could also see that the young woman opposite was very beautiful.
She still feels very elegant. Although she looks young, she has a charming mature charm!
Although she was reluctant to admit it, she felt discouraged that that woman was not only inferior to her, but also to Jiayi.
In addition, he also saw the woman's bedroom. Oh my god, it was so big, much bigger than her living room. It looked like a very high-end mansion, which showed that her family background was also very good.
The external conditions were flawless, and they were from a wealthy family. Xiong Linlin realized that her plan might be ruined. Li Jiayi had no obvious advantages in all aspects...
"Xue Chen, she...is your girlfriend?" Xiong Linlin couldn't help but ask, wanting to confirm.
Xue Chen paused and asked with a smile: "What do you think?"
Xiong Linlin said angrily: "I guess not, you don't think you are worthy of her."
Although Li Jiayi was silent, she was also listening carefully.
Xiong Linlin made jokes about her and Xue Chen many times, and she kept smiling and refusing, but she would inevitably think about that, and Xue Chen. When she thought of the limited experiences she had with Xue Chen, it seemed that she would find Xue Chen every time.
A side that is different from ordinary people.
He had miraculous medical skills that she couldn't understand. He could cure diseases and save people. He also had very sharp eyesight and ability in the antique industry. He was also worth a fortune. She didn't even think of Xue Chen's shortcomings for a while.
If I have to talk about a shortcoming, it is that he is always too calm and rigid when doing things, as if nothing is a problem in his eyes and he can do things with ease.
When Xiong Linlin asked if the woman on the video call just now was Xue Chen's girlfriend, she subconsciously felt an inexplicable nervousness in her heart.
"If you say you're not worthy, then you're not worthy," Xue Chen said nonchalantly.
Hearing Xue Chen's answer, Xiong Linlin felt a little depressed and took a big breath.
Now she also understands one thing. There must be no shortage of beauties around Xue Chen. I am afraid that Jiayi is not very attractive at all. She thinks that Xue Chen has been interested in Li Jiayi for a long time and it is wishful thinking. Then her plan will definitely not work.
It worked.
Since the first plan failed, Xiong Linlin prepared a second plan, which was... to make it clear!
"Xue Chen, I have something to tell you." Xiong Linlin put down her chopsticks.
"Oh? What's the matter?" Xue Chen didn't even raise his head, casually picking some vegetables and putting them into his mouth. He had long noticed that something was wrong with Xiong Linlin, and now that he saw her saying that she wanted to talk to him sometimes, he finally understood why.
That’s it.
Li Jiayi was also kept in the dark. She didn't know what Xiong Linlin was thinking, let alone that she was almost 'sold', so she turned around and looked over.
"I have something to ask you for help, can you agree?" Xiong Linlin took a deep breath and pursed her lips.
"Let's talk about it in advance." Xue Chen finally put down his chopsticks, leaned back on the chair, and looked at Xiong Linlin.
"The thing is like this. Century Longteng is going to open a high-end restaurant and is currently preparing for interior decoration. My father runs a decoration company and is also fighting for this project, so I hope you can have a word with Gao Dewei or Gao Dechao to let
My father’s company can take on this project.”
Xiong Linlin's tone became much softer and she looked at Xue Chen coquettishly.
"Xue Chen, are you okay? Please help me with this. I know that both Gao Dewei and Gao Dechao have a good relationship with you. As long as you ask, this matter will definitely be done. Moreover, I
I also promise you that if things happen, I will never forget you."
Xue Chen held his hands in front of his chest and calmly said two words: "No." (To be continued)
