It was silent for a few seconds.
Ye Qingran froze for a moment before she realized that Chu Yan was replying to her saying that he was too rigid and couldn’t take a joke.
Therefore, he directly teased her. However, wasn’t this a little too blunt?
It made her not know whether to laugh or cry.
Ye Qingran raised her eyebrows slightly. “Since you’re so direct, then I won’t beat around the bush. Compared to you liking my brain, I hope that you like my body more.”
“I’m not interested.”
Chu Yan didn’t hesitate and his voice was indifferent.
This Ye Qingran had a glib tongue and liked to tease him.
There was no need for him to be calculative with a child.
Ye Qingran didn’t know what he was thinking at all. She tilted her head and said, “But I heard that what’s forced is better.”
Chu Yan was speechless and asked her, “… Are you done?”
Ye Qingran chuckled and said, “Alright, let’s get down to business. You agreed to the three conditions that I mentioned just now, right?”
“Yes.”
“Then I’ll talk about the first condition first. You also know that I’ve been kicked out of the house and am temporarily staying at your house. I originally planned to move out when my mother returned home, but now my mother has gone missing, my father deliberately prevented me from contacting her. So before I find a place to stay, I want to stay at your house.”
Chu Yan hesitated for a moment and said, “I’ll arrange a place for you to stay.”
Ye Qingran understood.
He was still afraid that she would harm his sister, so he planned to find a place for her to stay.
That would be even better.
She preferred to live alone.
Ye Qingran smiled and asked again, “Although you said that you suspected that you knew the person behind Long Junyao by letting me monitor the Dragon Palace, I think that you want to buy the Dragon Palace, right?”
Chu Yan looked at Ye Qingran with a profound gaze and said, “Yes.”
Ye Qingran could hear the subtle insinuations in that simple word.
She said, “I’m not interested in the Dragon Palace, but you also know that our Ye family has four sons. Me, the youngest son, is the poorest, and I only have three thousand Yuan in living expenses every month. Money is really tight, so my second condition is that if you buy the Dragon Palace, I want two percent of the shares of the Dragon Palace as a dividend.”
Chu Yan leaned back in his chair. “Don’t you have 100 million?”
Ye Qingran frowned and froze. “I have 100 million? Why didn’t I know that?”
Chu Yan’s voice was still indifferent, but there was a hint of deeper meaning in it. “If you don’t have 100 million, how dare you add a zero on the check?”
Ye Qingran’s back stiffened, and then she laughed awkwardly. “Haha, I already said it. I was just joking.”
Chu Yan’s words were really getting more and more powerful.
She almost couldn’t take it when he suddenly retorted.
She changed the topic and asked, “What? I’m helping you monitor the entire Dragon Palace. You can’t even bear to pay such a small amount of money as my salary?”
Before she could finish her sentence, Ye Qingran’s phone rang.
She didn’t wait for Chu Yan’s reply and quickly took out her phone to check.
It was Liu Renwei calling.
Ye Qingran thought that Liu Renwei was calling because he saw her message saying that she was going back, so he specifically called to ask about it.
She also needed to ease the awkward atmosphere just now, so she directly picked up the phone.
Liu Renwei’s laughter came from the phone.
“Ye Qingran, you asked me to take a video of them dancing and post it on social media. The Dongfang family saw it very quickly. Dongfang Yu’s father just called and scolded Dongfang Yu. He even told him to go home immediately. Dongfang Yu abandoned Mu Qingxue and left dejectedly.”
As Ye Qingran listened, she thought of Mu Qingxue’s plot as the female lead.
She subconsciously asked, “Where’s Mu Qingxue?”
“I don’t know. She drank quite a lot. She might have gone back too.”
“Alright, I got it. Have fun. I have something to do, so I’ll hang up first.”
Ye Qingran took the computer and switched to the monitor screen to look for Mu Qingxue.
But after searching for a long time, she still couldn’t find her.
She moved back a little and saw Mu Qingxue standing alone in the corridor while crying.
She didn’t know what had happened, but she looked sad and woeful.
A man moved forward and pestered her.
Mu Qingxue was shocked.
She pushed the man away and ran forward. She didn’t know where she ran to.
She stumbled and bumped into Long Junyao’s arms again.
Mu Qingxue was shocked and instinctively wanted to escape.
However, Long Junyao grabbed her wrist.
“What are you doing? Let go of me.” Mu Qingxue struggled with all her might, but she couldn’t break free. She flew into a rage out of humiliation and slapped Long Junyao’s face.
This slap was especially crisp.
Long Junyao didn’t expect it at all.
His playful smile disappeared, and there was a hint of anger in his eyes as he looked at Mu Qingxue.
“Woman, you have guts. You actually dared to hit me.”
He forcefully dragged Mu Qingxue into his embrace.
The physical contact and the woman’s subtle fragrance caused Long Junyao’s eyes to darken and his voice to become hoarse.
He raised his hand and grabbed Mu Qingxue’s chin to turn her entire face towards him. “Since you dared to attack me, you must be mentally prepared to face the consequences.”
“What are you going to do…”
Before she could finish her sentence, her lips were blocked by Long Junyao. He even started to move his hands all over her body. After a few moves, Mu Qingxue fell into his embrace…
“Pa.”
The computer was closed.
Why did he turn off the computer at such a critical moment? She wanted to see if the other two male leads would appear?
Ye Qingran frowned and looked up. She met Chu Yan’s cold eyes.
His eyes were clear and ruthless. His tone was also serious. He said in a lecturing tone, “Children shouldn’t look at these.”
Ye Qingran said, “… I’m not young anymore.”
Chu Yan asked, “How are you not young anymore?”
Ye Qingran didn’t know how to answer for a moment.
If she was a woman, she could have puffed out her chest and told everyone that she wasn’t young anymore.
But her chest was flat.
Even if she had puffed out her chest, it would have been pointless.
If it was a man, she could have puffed out her chest and told everyone that she wasn’t young anymore.
But on her abdomen, she didn’t have anything.
If she had puffed out abdomen, it would have been pointless.
Chu Yan said again, “I’ll agree to the second condition. Tell me your third condition.”
Ye Qingran shrugged. “I haven’t thought of the third condition yet. I’ll tell you when I think of it.”
Chu Yan gave Ye Qingran a deep look.
If it was possible, he didn’t want to leave this condition for the future.
He said, “Then you have to think it through. The conditions in the future won’t be like now, where you can casually mention them.”
Of course, Ye Qingran knew that the conditions before the matter was completed were the easiest to mention.
But she had to leave behind one condition for the future, after she found out about Chu Yan’s identity.
“Don’t worry. The conditions I mentioned will definitely be fulfilled by you. I won’t force you too much, and I won’t make you sacrifice yourself.”
Ye Qingran shook her head and teased.
She was already used to it. This time, Chu Yan didn’t even raise his eyebrows.
The car moved forward again and they both returned to the villa.
Chu Ruoruo was very surprised when she saw the two of them return at the same time. She quickly asked them how they bumped into each other.
