Xu Jinfei was so angry that his face twitched.
With his sonâs good-looking face and career achievement, many women had come knocking on his door. Even the daughter of a rich family like Zhuang Tianya had tried to curry favor with them, but this woman didnât give them any face.
He knew he wasnât wrong.
This woman was too powerful. If Xu Baohan marries her, it would be terrible.
âUncle, we are both businessmen,â An Lan observed his expression, âThatâs right, I am dating your son, but to put it bluntly, if it werenât because of him, we wouldnât have had any interaction at all. If I were to curry favor with you, it would definitely be to gain your support, but it is clear that you have come with ill intentions. You donât like me, and you donât even have basic respect for me. Since you donât have a good impression of me, then it would be useless even if I were to please you well, so I am not going to waste my time and energy on you.â
Xu Jinfeiâs lips curled into a cold smile. âYou are indeed very shrewd. However, as long as you prove your worth to me, there is still a chance to turn things around.â
He bumped into the two shareholders earlier, he knew that she had connections with wealthy people. He believed that as long as she was willing to help, his company might have a chance...
An Lan raised her eyebrows. âDidnât you come here to ask me to leave your son?â
Xu Jinfei was slightly embarrassed. He didnât want to say things loud. And he believed that she knew what he was trying to say, as she was such a smart woman.
âMy worth? Your son knows it the best.â She suddenly smiled playfully. âI guess you donât need to know. After all... youâre not my boyfriend.â
Xu Jinfei flew into a rage out of humiliation. âBe careful with your words. Donât be indiscreet and weird. Iâm not one of your clients.â
âWell, my clients make me money. What can you make me?â She spread her hands and said openly, âTo put it bluntly, the worth you are talking about is to bring you money, right? Do you want me to find someone to invest or lend you money? To be honest, I do have money, but I will not invest in your company. Why? Because you have never respected me from the start. Even if I help you, you will take that for granted. For a person like you, who would use your son as a tool, who would dare to cooperate with you? Besides, I have all kinds of projects to invest in around me, why would I invest in your half-dead company? From the moment I walked in until now, have you ever shown me any respect? There is a line written on your face, if you want to marry my son, you have to please me with money, otherwise, I will never allow that.â
Xu Jinfei stood up angrily, the corners of his mouth twitching, his eyes burning with rage, âVery well, since youâre so self-aware, Iâll be frank with you. Donât even think about marrying my son, young lady, youâre too young and too impulsive. Weâll see.â
An Lan turned back, her gaze unwavering, âThen let me remind you. We, lawyers, can stand firm in the city, there is a reason for that. The people that I have come into contact with are richer, better, and more powerful than you. If you want to teach me a lesson, go ahead, I donât think the connections you have are any better than those on my hands.. However, please be careful as you might need to leave Xia City anytime if someone found out the dirty tricks that you played to save your company.â
