I Treat You as My Sister, But You Want to be My Wife?!

Chapter 244: Chapter 244 No Next Time_1

He still needed to find more investors; anyhow, he had set the quota for Qianda, but none of the others were determined yet. When the time came, he would make a proper allocation to satisfy all parties involved.

It wouldn’t be good if the quota distribution caused resentment among others.

After the meal, the two left the restaurant.

No sooner had they stepped out of the restaurant than a girl came over and called out to Wang Xiaocong, "Mr. Wang."

"This is Mr. Shen," Wang Xiaocong introduced.

"Mr. Shen, hello," the girl immediately greeted Shen Dong.

"This is...?" Shen Dong looked at Wang Xiaocong with a puzzled gaze.

"Zhao Xinxin, my girlfriend," Wang Xiaocong said, grinning broadly.

He had asked his girlfriend to wait for him at the entrance while they were dining.

"Hello," Shen Dong responded, suddenly realizing, and returned a smile.

This Wang Xiaocong sure changed girlfriends with remarkable frequency.

The last time they went together to Sha City to invest in Dacheng Group, Wang Xiaocong had even shown off a photo of his girlfriend to everyone.

Shen Dong remembered that it was not the same woman.

It hadn’t been long, and Wang Xiaocong had already moved on to someone else.

In the past, he had seen people on the Internet say that the joys of wealthy men are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Changing women constantly was one of them.

It seemed that Wang Xiaocong was a prime example of this.

Wang Xiaocong’s girlfriend was quite attractive.

However, compared to Shen Dong’s wife, Chen Yuyan, she was still quite lacking.

There was no helping it; even across the entire entertainment industry, there were very few who could compare to Shen Dong’s wife, Chen Yuyan.

"Shen Dong, I’m going to take off," said Wang Xiaocong, waving his hand and leaving with his girlfriend in a flashy sports car.

The sports car was driven by his girlfriend.

Shen Dong, meanwhile, drove back to the company in his own Bentley King.

Upon arriving at Chen Yuyan’s office, Chen Yuyan asked, "Husband, what did Wang Xiaocong want with you?"

Shen Dong explained the situation.

"You’re the second-largest shareholder of Qianda Film and Television now!" Chen Yuyan exclaimed in surprise.

...

People’s Park.

Feng Lijuan arrived at the usual place and met the girl from yesterday who had rented the watch.

"Where’s the watch?" asked Feng Lijuan.

She hadn’t slept well the previous night because renting out the watch for a day was too worrying.

There was no choice; the watch was too expensive.

"Sister, here it is back for you. Please take a look," the girl took out a box from her bag and handed it to Feng Lijuan.

Feng Lijuan took it, hurriedly opened it, and checked for any damage to the watch.

Finally, she found no damage; it still looked as new.

It was similar to when she had rented it out.

While she inspected, the girl was somewhat nervous.

This watch was a high-quality counterfeit her boyfriend had bought for eighteen thousand yuan.

The seller had said that unless one was a professional, it would be impossible to distinguish between the genuine and the fake.

Despite this, the girl couldn’t help feeling nervous.

After all, it’s not the thousand things one anticipates that they fear, but the unexpected ’just in case.’ What if Feng Lijuan had left some unnoticed mark on the real watch?

Indeed, after taking the watch back, she and her boyfriend had examined it carefully, but found no obvious marks.

As nervous as she was, the girl kept her anxiety hidden inside and did not show it outwardly.

"No problem, here’s your ID back." After checking and finding nothing wrong, Feng Lijuan took out the girl’s ID card and returned it to her.

"Sister, next time I need it, I’ll rent your watch again, okay?" the girl said with a smile.

"I was in urgent need of money, that’s why I rented out the watch, there won’t be a next time," Feng Lijuan left those words behind and turned to leave.

Watching Feng Lijuan’s retreating figure, the girl relaxed entirely, a smile spreading across her face.

The genuine watch, she and her boyfriend had already found a buyer for it, someone willing to purchase it for 1.2 million.

1.2 million, she and her boyfriend could each take a share of 600,000.

...

After work in the evening.

Chen Yuyan went to the kitchen to cook, while Shen Dong rested on the balcony, admiring the view of the Pu River and contemplating how to allocate the remaining financing quota of Yikang Pharmaceutical.

Soon, the phone rang with an unfamiliar number.

"Hello," Shen Dong answered the call.

"Hello, Mr. Shen, I’m Sheng Pengnan from Green Mountain Capital," the caller said.

Two minutes later, Shen Dong hung up the phone.

Today, he had received quite a few calls from capital firms.

They all wanted investment quotas.

He agreed to some and declined others.

Shen Dong chose the investors that were the most advantageous.

After hanging up the phone, the doorbell rang.

Shen Dong went to open the door and found Zhang Xuansong on the threshold, which somewhat surprised him.

Still, he warmly invited him inside.

He didn’t ask why the other person had come, such a question wasn’t necessary.

"Mr. Shen, a friend brought me two bottles of wine today, and I brought one over for you to try," Zhang Xuansong said, placing a bottle of wine on the living room table.

"Mr. Zhang, you’re too polite. Such an expensive bottle of wine, I really can’t accept it," Shen Dong was also familiar with domestic and international fine wines.

This was the renowned Romanée-Conti.

You couldn’t buy it off the shelf; it belonged to the collections of the very wealthy, with each bottle priced at a million.

"Mr. Shen, it’s just a bottle of wine, don’t take it too seriously. If you turn it down, I won’t feel comfortable staying to chat," Zhang Xuansong said with a laugh.

"Alright then," Shen Dong had no choice but to accept.

When someone had put it that way, if he declined any further, it would seem too pretentious.

"Mr. Shen, I also checked out this large flat at the time, and felt it was meant for young people, not someone my age, so I bought a more modest style." Zhang Xuansong looked around the living room and remarked.

"I was fortunate it worked out for me," Shen Dong said with a smile.

At that moment, Chen Yuyan, who had been busy in the kitchen, also realized there was a visitor and came out to greet Zhang Xuansong with a fruit platter, "Mr. Zhang, I’m cooking at the moment. Stay and have dinner with us later."

"Mrs. Shen, there’s no need for dinner. My wife was already cooking when I left home; I’ve got to return soon," Zhang Xuansong politely declined.

His visit today was just to deliver a bottle of wine and deepen his relationship with Shen Dong.

He wasn’t there for dinner. By bringing the wine, it just made sense for the couple to enjoy it during their meal. Being a third wheel in such a situation didn’t make sense.

Having chatted briefly with Shen Dong, Zhang Xuansong soon took his leave.

...

Feng Lijuan returned home.

"Got your watch back?" Chen Yuting, who had been scrolling through her phone on the living room sofa, asked immediately upon seeing Feng Lijuan return.

She knew that Feng Lijuan had rented out her watch to pay off the restaurant’s debt.

Knowing this, she didn’t know quite what to say.

A 1.5 million watch, just rented out like that.

And to someone she didn’t even know, no fear of being deceived.

"Got it back," Feng Lijuan was already wearing the watch again, lifting her wrist to show it off.

"That’s good," Chen Yuting glanced at it and felt relieved.

If it hadn’t been returned, Feng Lijuan would have suffered a big loss.

Even though it was Feng Lijuan’s money, Chen Yuting wouldn’t feel good if Feng Lijuan were scammed.
