Chapter 357: Unexpected

Xu Xiaojing asked directly, “Then why did you have a strange expression when Lu Yaohua mentioned this figure not long ago? Don’t say that it was our imagination. Your surprise was as big as the first time we heard about this! If you can’t give a reasonable explanation, I think we should forget about our cooperation.

We can’t have a partner who doesn’t even want to tell the truth. Who knows what you’re thinking? If you stab us in the back one day, where will we go to reason things out? The Tang family might not even be willing to let us in! And we can only suffer in silence!”

I’m the one who’s suffering in silence, right? Inexplicably, she was forced to raise the value of the transaction to 500 million! If not for the fact that the situation did not allow it, she would have beaten Lu Yaohua half to death and thrown him into the river to sleep forever! Why does he not have a brain?

Perhaps it was heaven’s will, or perhaps it was a coincidence, but Tang Wenyi understood now how the elders of the Tang family felt about her! At this moment, she couldn’t care less. Facing the distrustful gazes of these two people and the invisible pressure, she slowly clenched her fists under the table and thought to herself, Indeed, I’ve been away for too long and have aroused their suspicion!

Lu Yaohua was really too much. He had to argue with me for so long. Now my plans are stuck again! If today’s deal fails, I’d definitely get someone to drown Lu Yaohua! Thinking of this, she took a deep breath and forced a smile. “I actually wanted to give you a surprise. I didn’t expect Lu Yaohua to reveal it to you in advance.”

Although many thoughts appeared in her mind, only a few seconds had passed in reality, so Lei Jiacheng and Xu Xiaojing did not see any flaws in her explanation. Instead, they heard a hint of helplessness in her tone, as if this was really the case.

“I was really surprised.”

As Tang Wenyi explained, word by word, a trace of killing intent flashed across her eyes. However, because it was fleeting, no one present noticed this strange emotion. Instead, Lu Yaohua looked at her thoughtfully, but he didn’t care. After all, he only cared about money now.

Lei Jiacheng noticed the strange atmosphere between the two of them. He thought that after the divorce, Tang Wenyi already looked down on his brother, so he didn’t think too much about it and said, “Hahahaha, we don’t have any intention of suspecting Third Miss. We just don’t quite understand, right, Xiaojing?”

Xu Xiaojing, who was deep in thought, immediately responded and said, “That’s right! I hope Third Miss doesn’t take it to heart. However, I don’t think Wenyi, who comes from a prestigious family in the capital, will take issue with ordinary people like us, right? If word gets out…”

Tang Wenyi’s reputation would become even worse! Since the two of them had already said so much, what else could she do? Tang Wenyi’s face stiffened and she said, “I really won’t take it to heart. It’s normal for you to have doubts. It’s understandable.”

After receiving this affirmative answer, the couple secretly heaved a sigh of relief. Although the other party had a favor to ask of them, wouldn’t they be finished if they really butt heads the Tang family? Therefore, they should not offend Tang Wenyi.

Xu Xiaojing seemed to have thought of something and said, “But it’s good to know in advance. When we first found out, we even thought that there was something wrong with our ears! I didn’t expect that we would see you in a different light after not seeing you for a few days! You’re getting more and more outstanding. You can even get such a big order!”

Ha, she still felt that she was dreaming!

Tang Wenyi was in a difficult position, but she couldn’t tell the truth. In the end, she could only blame her ex-husband! Such a simple matter can become so complicated. Next time, I’d rather ask my Tang family for help than let him have any chance! He’s simply a gold-devouring beast, the kind that can’t handle human affairs!

Lei Jiacheng agreed and said, “I believe Old Master must have valued you a lot recently, right? Even if there’s a rift between you because of what happened previously, you’re still father and daughter after all. How can there be an overnight feud? Moreover, even if he doesn’t support you, the rest of the Tang family will definitely support you if you can get the 500-million-yuan order!”

His flattering words sounded harsh to Tang Wenyi’s ears. Only those who didn’t know anything in the outside world would think that her current resources were earned by her, right? That was her inheritance! Without it, she was really poor!

The corners of her mouth twitched unconsciously. “I guess,” she said.

She had obtained the position of director with the approval of most of the Tang family, so it was not wrong to say that.

“So what’s your plan?”

Lei Jiacheng asked impatiently. He couldn’t wait to hear Third Miss’s ‘marvelous’ plan! That was 500 million yuan! As long as the plan was feasible, the previously unattainable wealth and fame would make everything come true! Perhaps he was so excited that his hands were trembling.

When Xu Xiaojing saw this, she said in a low voice, “Control yourself. Don’t let others see your pathetic appearance.”

He instinctively looked over, but he quickly noticed that his wife’s legs were trembling. He said excitedly, “Are you the same? If we succeed this time, you’ll be a rich lady. No matter where you go, there will be people praising you and you’ll enjoy being the center of attention.”

Their gazes turned fiery at the same time.

Their voices were very soft. Even Lu Yaohua, who was closest to them, did not hear a single syllable. He curled his lips in disdain. They are whispering. Do they think nothing of me? Aren’t I the one who contributed the most to this matter?

As for Tang Wenyi, she was not interested in prying into other people’s secrets. She said, “I’m now the business director of the Tang family’s biomedicine department, so I received some latest news. I think I can make something out of it. If it develops smoothly, not to mention 500 million, even a billion won’t be a problem!”

She deliberately increased the number. As for whether they could see it or not, it was not within her consideration. In any case, she had already bragged about it. All she could do now was to go all out and let Xingwei Medical Group rush to the front without holding back! This way, she could use the resources in her hands to maximize her benefits in this game!

As expected, Lei Jiacheng and Xu Xiaojing revealed obvious surprise.

Lu Yaohua, on the other hand, focused all his attention on the words ‘business director.’ She had just returned to the Tang family, so how did she enter the company?
