Chapter 326 - Langfei Brother's Expression!

This man, who was over seventy and had a full head of white hair, was none other than Su Manni’s adoptive father, Su Shiwei.

The person next to him was one of his personal bodyguards.

It turned out, he had been staying in the next room, which was connected to the washroom via a hidden door behind a closet.

“I really didn’t expect that Ye Haochuan, for the sake of the Xiao Family, would not be willing to join our Su Group.” Su Shiwei snorted, glancing at his adoptive daughter, “Manni, your efforts to coax him to our side seem to be futile!”

A hint of disappointment showed on Su Manni’s face as she said, “However, adoptive father, even though our coaxing plan just failed, it also exactly proves that this person is not the kind of ungrateful person we imagined.”

Su Shiwei nodded and said, “But this young man, skilled in both medicine and martial arts, will sooner or later soar to great heights with his talents.

Unfortunately, it’s possible that Xiao Jian, that old guy whose Dantian was destroyed, might have a chance to restore it.

Then, dealing with him might become difficult.

Sigh, adoptive father is growing old, getting weaker by the day.

If I can’t restore my Dantian soon, I’ll never have the chance again.”

“That’s why we can’t give up on coaxing Ye Haochuan, at the very least, we need to show him kindness,” Su Manni responded.

“Exactly,” Su Shiwei thought for a moment, “Manni, there’s a saying about playing the long game when fishing for big fish.

We certainly must take revenge on the Xiao family, but that vendetta compared to my lifespan is insignificant.

I want to cultivate again, and only then will extending my life be possible.

Let’s first take over the stock rights of Xiao family as a gift for Ye Haochuan.

You handle this.”

“Okay, adoptive father,” Su Manni nodded in agreement.

At this moment, Ye Haochuan had just taken the elevator to the 22nd floor.

As soon as he exited the elevator, he was pulled aside by Xiao Haimei and Fan Qingyin, who were waiting at the elevator.

Xiao Haimei immediately bombarded him with questions, “How was it?

Did you meet that CEO of the Su Family?”

“I did,” Ye Haochuan cleared his throat.

“So, did she agree?” Xiao Haimei asked urgently.

“Agree my ass?” Ye Haochuan responded irritably, “She was plotting against me; of course, I couldn’t agree.”

“Plotting against you?” Xiao Haimei’s face showed a hint of suspicion.

“Speaking of which, you probably won’t believe it, but that beautiful CEO of the Su family, who is extremely gorgeous and very voluptuous, actually harbored ulterior motives for me.

As soon as I walked in, she was bathing completely naked in a large circular bathtub, claimed she liked me, and was willing to be my woman, with just one condition: leave the Xiao family, switch branches, and serve the Su family.

I obviously…”

Ye Haochuan was going on and on when Fan Qingyin suddenly interrupted with a chuckle, “You must be bluffing.”

“Bluffing?” Ye Haochuan was somewhat speechless, “Please, I’m telling the absolute truth, okay?”

Xiao Haimei also seemed dubious, chiding, “Can you be serious for once?”

Hell, it seems no one believes the truth but swallows lies.

Ye Haochuan felt a bit frustrated and said, “Sister Mei, where am I not being serious?

I’m telling the truth.”

Fan Qingyin laughed softly again, “Alright, even if you’re telling the truth, considering your notoriously lecherous nature, facing a beautiful woman with a hot body, naked in a bathtub waiting for you, wouldn’t you be tempted at all?”

“Tempted?

Of course, I’m tempted.

But what can I do about that?

Am I supposed to just jump on her and take advantage of her?” Ye Haochuan truly felt frustrated as if no amount of explanation would suffice, “Please, don’t think of me as so vulgar.

Am I the type who can’t walk the straight path upon seeing a beautiful woman tempting me?”

“It’s hard to say, I’ve dealt with men like you who can’t stay faithful,” Fan Qingyin said, her tone laced with faint sarcasm.

Ye Haochuan knew she was still retaliating because of the major advantage he had taken of her in the past, and he couldn’t help feeling a tooth-itching hatred, “Damn, itching for a spanking again, are you?

Just wait and see how I deal with you.”

“Whether you believe me or not, whatever, what a waste of expressions!” Ye Haochuan couldn’t be bothered to explain any further, instead, he took Xiao Haimei’s hand, saying, “Sister Mei, if no one else believes me, you should, right?”

Being pulled by the hand softened Xiao Haimei’s heart, she hesitated for a moment before firmly saying, “I believe you.”

That’s my good fiancée!

Ye Haochuan visibly relaxed.

“Haimie, don’t let him fool you; he’s someone whose words and heart don’t match, you never know which words are true and which are false…”

Fan Qingyin was about to throw a few more barbs his way when, at that moment, the elevator door opened again.

Ye Haochuan turned his head and saw Su Manni, dressed in stylish and eye-catching clothes, step out of the elevator.

Following her, besides a female secretary Gu Li whom Ye Haochuan knew, were four men in suits and leather shoes.

Seeing Ye Haochuan alongside Xiao Haimei and Fan Qingyin, a smile formed on Su Manni’s face, then she walked up to them, her beautiful eyes sizing up Xiao Haimei.

“So you are the Miss Xiao of the Xiao Family, Xiao Haimei, right?”

Smiling ambiguously, Su Manni didn’t wait for Xiao Haimei to respond and continued, “Truly charming and beautiful, no wonder some people remain steadfastly loyal to you, not even tempted by the generous offers from the Su Family.”

With these words, Xiao Haimei and Fan Qingyin suddenly realized they had indeed misunderstood Ye Haochuan.

And Ye Haochuan felt relieved.

Just then, Su Manni suddenly spoke again, “Miss Xiao, originally, our Su Family wasn’t planning to take over the Xiao Family’s shares.

However, in light of Mr.

Ye’s principled stand against personal gain just now, I, Su Manni, admire him greatly.

Therefore, I’ve decided to acquire all the shares of the Xiao Family.

As for the price, you can discuss it with my secretary, Gu Li.”

Xiao Haimei was completely stunned; she clearly hadn’t expected such a sudden turn of events, the happiness coming too quickly.

At that moment, however, Ye Haochuan harbored other thoughts.

What exactly was Su Manni up to with this maneuver?

Wasn’t she giving up on roping him in?

Suddenly, a fragrance wafted through the air, and Ye Haochuan was jolted awake.

Looking up, he saw Su Manni leaning close to his ear, whispering, “Ye Haochuan, I hope you remember, you won’t escape from the palm of my hand.”

After speaking, Su Manni let out a coquettish laugh, and, escorted by her four bodyguards, turned back and re-entered the elevator.

Watching the elevator doors close, Ye Haochuan’s gaze sharpened; this beautiful CEO really had a relentless streak!

At that moment, the remaining secretary, Gu Li, gestured with an inviting hand to Xiao Haimei, “Miss Xiao, please.”

Knowing Xiao Haimei was about to continue negotiating with Gu Li about the price of the Xiao Family shares, Ye Haochuan naturally didn’t want Xiao Haimei to be at a disadvantage.

Just as he was about to get involved, his phone rang.

He picked it up only to see it was a call from Director Liu of Huaxia Minsheng Bank.
