After Qiao Chen listened to Xu Wan’s sorrowful words, he merely raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, “Alright, it’s good that you understand.”
Following that, Qiao Chen called Ah De over. Ah De handed a briefcase to Xu Wan and said, “Miss Xu, the transfer contract for the shop is inside.”
Xu Wan reached out her hands to receive the briefcase, but Second Master Qiao suddenly grabbed Xu Wan’s hand and said earnestly, “Sister Wan, these shops are not worth much. Why did you forsake the tens of billions and insist on these shabby shops? Even if you marry Qiao Chen and end up divorcing him, that’s fine too…”
At that moment, Second Master Qiao felt like knocking Xu Wan’s head open to see if it was still functioning. She didn’t even want tens of billions worth of assets? Does she have any idea what it is?”
The amount of liquid cash that he and Eldest Master Qiao had added up to only a few billion yuan. Even if they split a small portion of these tens of billions of yuan among themselves, they would still become world-class tycoons overnight!
Xu Wan broke away from Second Master Qiao’s grasp and said indifferently, “Second Master Qiao, I’ve thought it through. Please don’t find me in the future. Those houses don’t belong to me anyway. If you have any queries, please look for Qiao Chen. Goodbye.”
Xu Wan did not even glance at anyone as she turned and left the scene. Her forlorn silhouette looked stubborn and bleak in the chilly wind.
After walking out of the Qiao family’s house, Xu Wan felt like all her energy had been drained in an instant and she collapsed on the ground. Her eyes felt sore and her tears almost fell uncontrollably.
Don’t cry, don’t cry…
Xu Wan looked up and held back her tears.
She held onto a wall for support and slowly stood up. She walked to the roadside as she prepared to hail a taxi home.
Suddenly, the sound of tires rubbing against the ground became louder. Then, a black Maybach stopped right in front of Xu Wan.
Xu Wan took a few steps back as she thought that someone was going to alight from the car.
The car door opened. A man wearing a long, casual coat and a pair of Martin boots got out of the car. He walked two steps and stood in front of Xu Wan. Then, he grabbed Xu Wan’s hand. “Where are you going? Shall I give you a lift?”
Xu Wan looked up in shock. She saw a familiar face.
She froze for a few seconds, then struggled to break away from the man’s grasp. “It’s okay. I can walk on my own.”
“How is your hand so cold?” The man disregarded her rejection. He gripped Xu Wan’s wrist and held her hand in his palm.
“Han Bing, don’t you know of the prudent reservations between men and women?!” Xu Wan blushed. She felt the man’s warm palm and was so embarrassed that she wished she could find a hole to hide in.
“What kind of feudal thinking do you have? We didn’t even kiss. What’s there to be embarrassed about? I’m just taking care of you as a friend, don’t overthink it.” Han Bing smiled at her, his smile harmless yet astute.
Xu Wan knew she was definitely not as strong as Han Bing, so she could only resign herself to her fate and give up struggling. She said in an unnatural tone, “My hand isn’t cold anymore. Let go of me.”
“No way. It’s clearly still freezing. Let me rub it for you.” Han Bing looked like he was in glee from taking advantage of her.
Five years ago, Han Bing first met Xu Wan when he came to Lang Yue Residence to discuss business with Old Master Qiao. After that, Han Bing would always find excuses to come to Lang Yue Residence to look for Xu Wan. He would either give her gifts like flowers, perfume, jewelry, or even confess his feelings to Xu Wan, telling her how he liked her.
Xu Wan was terrified after hearing those and immediately told Old Master Qiao. Old Master Qiao would not allow anyone to snatch her daughter-in-law away. He immediately scolded Han Bing sternly and forbade him from coming to the Lan Yue Residence again.
However, Han Bing still had Xu Wan’s contact number. After being barred from entering the Lan Yue Residence, he had been spam calling Xu Wan’s phone for a couple of months. Every time Xu Wan received his call, she would hang up and blacklist the number.
After some time, Han Bing also realized that it was meaningless, so he did not look for Xu Wan.
Neither did Xu Wan ask about Han Bing. However, she did not expect them to meet today.
“Have you had enough! If you continue doing this, others will see us!” Xu Wan saw that her petite hands were being pinched and fondled by Han Bing. She was both embarrassed and angry while she shouted anxiously.
“So what if others see us? You’re not Qiao Chen’s fiancée anymore. What are you afraid of?” Han Bing said indifferently.
Xu Wan froze. “How did you know?”
“Please, I have some money after all. It’s easy to find out about this.” After saying that, Han Bing pulled Xu Wan’s hand again to get her into the car. “Let’s not talk about this anymore. I’ll send you back first!”
“There’s no need…” Just as Xu Wan was about to reject him, Han Bing approached her gloomily. He held her struggling hand and said in a low voice,” If you continue to tug against me like this, others will see you…”
Xu Wan thought, “Didn’t you just claim that you aren’t afraid of being seen just now?”
Han Bing pushed Xu Wan into the front passenger seat. He turned on the air conditioner in the car, and it warmed her body up in a moment. As she was looking at the brand new Maybach, Xu Wan recalled how Han Bing was still driving a silver convertible sports car the first time he visited the Qiao family.
The Han family was very rich. Although Xu Wan did not know how rich they were, they were rich enough to let Han Bing drive a different luxury car every week..
After Qiao Chen listened to Xu Wan’s sorrowful words, he merely raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, “Alright, it’s good that you understand.”
Following that, Qiao Chen called Ah De over. Ah De handed a briefcase to Xu Wan and said, “Miss Xu, the transfer contract for the shop is inside.”
