Ye Xingguang leaned against his own malignant tumor and asked, âWhy wouldnât it be the case? Iâm sure itâs because I possess the amazing luck of the Carp Girl. Donât you think so, Master Qing?â
Even though Ye Junqing, whoâs always calm and composed, knew there was more to this than he understood, he gripped his poker face at this moment. His stern face broke into a deep and inscrutable smile, âThe state has given me this little lucky star, everything naturally goes smoothly for me. Harry Perry, my thanks to you.â
âPfftt⦠Harry Perry, hahahaâ¦â Lin Hanfeng almost rolled on the floor laughing.
Harry Perryâs face was indescribable. He glanced at Yenâan, murderous intent flaring in his eyes. He abruptly stood up and left.
But Lin Hanfeng was relentless, shouting at his retreating figure: âHarry Perry, I am your witness. The next time you meet the Carp Girl, remember to kneel down and call me daddy.â
The Carp Girl in person thought: damn, even after my face-change surgery I canât command Harry Perry to kneel before me and call me daddy. This sucks!
The other big shots were originally invited by Harry Perry to see Ye Junqing cede all the rights to the mermaid-themed parks. But things didnât go as they expected, their expressions fluctuated, not knowing how to react.
But, out of respect for Ye Junqing, everyone raised their glasses in congratulations to him.
Ye Junqing accepted their congratulations, one by one, and waited until the small bar was empty before he turned to his wife, the lucky charm, and asked in a meaningful tone, âWhatâs going on?â
âWhat do you mean âWhatâs going on?â?â Ye Xingguang pretended not to understand and sat there, eating the fruit salad the waiter served.
Ye Junqing raised his hand and lovingly rubbed her head twice.
He had already called Fu Zhuo to prepare the contract. At that moment, Fu Zhuo, with an unfamiliar face, came over with two printed contracts.
Ye Junqing quickly signed both documents and then pushed them over to Yenâan, who looked annoyed as if she had lost something: âMiss Yenâan, have you made up your mind?â
Now that there was no one else around, Yenâan dropped her act. Clenching her teeth, she picked up the pen and scribbled her name on the contract. After signing, she added: âIâll give you the formula later. Iâll supply the raw materials for the eye mask. As for production, sales, and promotion, I wonât get involved. Your side will be solely responsible.â
âNo problem.â
âHumph, Iâm leaving.â Yenâan glanced at her companion sitting on the other side. She held back the urge to give a large hug to Ye Xingguang, who disregarded her own friend for a guy. After signing the contract, she strutted away.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Ye Xingguang took out her phone: âLove you, my dear Yenâan! Weâre splitting it 50-50, you wonât get short-changed. I donât want a penny. Free authorship for you.â
Yenâan glanced at her WeChat message and grinned, ignoring it. In her mind, she felt swindled, believing the terms offered by the CEO of the Lu family were much more lucrative. Despite Ye Xingguangâs fickleness, Yenâan cherished her friendship and was willing to give up the potential profits for their friendship.
After Yenâan left, Ye Junqing held Ye Xingguangâs hands in his own and asked playfully, âKnow her?â
âHuh?â
âThat Yenâan?â His eyes were sharp and piercing.
Ye Xingguang continued to feign ignorance, acting innocent: âNot really. Oh my, youâre so amazing! So many people were competing against you, offering lower prices than you, yet you still emerged as the winner. Having a lucky charm like me, I canât help but envy you.â
Ye Junqing: ââ¦â
Fu Zhuo stood aside, intrigued by Ye Xingguangâs words. Could Miss Ye really be a luck-bringer?
