Xiao Zhi quickly said, âOh, our Angel is starting how to do business. Miss Lu, thank you very much. Please guide Angel. She has a childish temper, but sheâs very smart.â
Xiao Zhiâs smile was like that of a loving mother.
I couldnât help but sigh in my heart. Back then, my aunt and cousinâs methods were really too low-end.
There were thousands of ways to play the role of stepmother, and Xiao Zhi was undoubtedly a clever one.
The abuse was the most unseemly, but flattery was different.
Angel didnât rebuke Xiao Zhi this time, and she looked a little pleased with herself.
She was really stupid.
âSo, how did the business talk go?â Mr. President asked with a smile.
I was a little speechless. When I saw the look in Jing Tianâs and Gu Nianâs eyes, I felt a little more at ease. If it werenât for the two normal people, I would have thought that I was a lunatic.
I suddenly understood Xiao Zhiâs methods and her âdifficulties.â.
I didnât say anything.
Angel pouted. She pointed at me and said, âShe is being so greedy. She is asking for five billion! Daddy, youâre just in time! Nanxing, didnât you say that you didnât believe I had so much money? I might not, but my dad does. Here is the contract. Sign it!â
She gestured for Lu Yan to pass the contract to me.
Lu Yan didnât even dare to look at Gu Nian. She braced herself and passed the contract to me. I didnât accept it, so she placed it on the coffee table.
I smiled at Angel. âMiss Angel, are you mistaken? When did I say that I would sell this island to you for five billion? Just because youâre stupid doesnât mean that Iâm stupid. Are you used to forcing people to submit to you, so youâre being so brazen?â
âWhat do you mean? Are you going back on your words?â Angel was furious.
I glared at her. âDo you not understand human language? When did I say that I would sell this island to you for five billion? Lu Yan can be my witness!â
Lu Yan was stunned. She opened her mouth but did not say a word.
I knew that she would not dare to speak nonsense in front of Gu Nian.
The president frowned. âMiss Nanxing, whatâs
going on?â
I used my fingers to knock on the contract on the table. âMiss Angel invited me over. I thought she wanted to apologize for what she did to me, so I came. But she actually wanted to buy this island for one billion and gave me two boats so that I would move.â
Mr. President looked a little embarrassed, but he didnât dare to glare at his daughter.
I couldnât help but sneer. âI guessed that she was ordered by someone to make this deal with me. I exposed her, but she turned mad instead. She stomped her feet and raised the offer to five billion. Mr. President, donât tell me you also think my island is only worth five billion? If thatâs the case, why donât I offer you five billion to give up the position of the president?â
The president was stunned for a moment before he laughed dryly. âMiss Nanxing, you sure like to joke.â
I chuckled. âIf your beloved daughter is joking, then Iâm joking. If sheâs serious, then Iâm serious!â
The presidentâs family of three was stunned. Angel looked at her father but didnât say anything this time. It was rare that she didnât explode. I looked at him. âMr. President, Iâm very sorry. Iâm a useless person. I have nothing but money. However, your daughter wants to compete with me in terms of financial resources. Thatâs unfortunate because I wonât sell this island. As for your presidency⦠Iâm thinking about supporting one of your vice presidents. I donât know much about politics, but I have a good eye for investment. There are a lot of vice presidents on this island, and a lot of people are interested in your position. We both know that.â
