Chapter 366 - Chapter 366 Chapter 355 Abs

Chapter 366: Chapter 355: Abs Chapter 366: Chapter 355: Abs The night before leaving for the Maldives, Nie Zhan called her to say that a friend of his had a villa there, and he had already arranged to borrow it for a month.

Nie Zhan said, “I’ve already arranged for a chef. Whatever you want to eat, just let the chef cook it, or if you feel like Chinese food, you can cook it yourself.”

Mainly because he knew Lu Jiaxin didn’t like Western food, and staying in a hotel wouldn’t be so convenient. Whereas in a villa, she could cook whatever she wanted with the right ingredients.

Lu Jiaxin felt he was very considerate, “Okay, I’ll listen to you.”

Nie Zhan then asked, “If you like it there, we can also buy a villa and go on vacation often.”

Lu Jiaxin declined, saying, “I don’t know when I’ll come next time. By the way, do you have time to come over?”

Nie Zhan replied with a laugh, “Don’t worry, I’ll definitely come to celebrate the New Year with you.”

He would have time off for the New Year, and since he wasn’t a work machine, he needed to relax properly too. But the holiday wouldn’t be very long, probably about a week or so.

Once in the Maldives, she took a day to rest before starting to have fun. By the time Nie Zhan arrived, Lu Jiaxin had already learned how to ride a jet ski.

On the white sandy beach, Nie Zhan looked at Lu Jiaxin in her swimsuit and a smile appeared in his eyes.

“What are you laughing at?”

“I think your swimsuit looks quite nice.”

Lu Jiaxin pouted, as if she didn’t know what he was thinking. Her swimsuit was somewhat more conservative compared to the bikinis worn by beauties around her. It wasn’t that she was conservative in a dated sense, but because her figure wasn’t the curvy type, bikinis wouldn’t look good on her, so why not wear something more conservative?

When Nie Zhan changed into his swimwear, Lu Jiaxin looked at him in surprise and asked, “How is it that you, who sits in the office every day, have abs?”

Although he only had a four-pack, it was still quite impressive. This indicated that he maintained a good routine and worked out regularly.

Seeing her staring at his abs, Nie Zhan said with a full-faced smile, “You are my girlfriend, if you want to touch them, go ahead.”

“Ah, how can you tell I want to touch them?”

Gu Wenfeng, standing nearby, really wanted to say that anyone with eyes could tell. But then again, it’s normal for boyfriends and girlfriends to want to touch. Hmm, he seemed to be corrupted.

Nie Zhan stayed in the Maldives for a week. The couple went swimming and boating in the sea, diving, frolicking on the beach, and even went shopping in Male City.

Lu Jiaxin, who usually didn’t buy jewelry, spent over two million this time, simply because she liked it too much. She had no regrets about the purchase; after all, money can’t buy happiness, and it’s not as if she couldn’t afford it.

Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, Nie Zhan’s vacation was over and he had to return. To Nie Zhan’s surprise, Lu Jiaxin wanted to go back with him.

Nie Zhan disagreed, saying, “Didn’t you say you would return before school starts? Jiaxin, don’t accommodate me. Stick to your own plan.”

Lu Jiaxin said, “I’m not accommodating you, but I’ve played for more than half a month, and staying here alone isn’t fun. It’s just right to go back, as I also have things to deal with.”

“What’s that? I can help you deal with it.”

“It’s about acquiring a real estate company, haven’t I mentioned it to you?” said Lu Jiaxin.

Nie Zhan certainly knew this and had even offered to help her find a suitable one, but she had refused, “Why, do you have a company in mind?”

Lu Jiaxin had already asked He Bin and others to inquire, and had also told Su Heyuan, “I’ll do some research when I get back, and if I come across a suitable one, I’ll buy it.”

Nie Zhan knew she did not want to depend on him and wanted to make a name for herself, “If you have a company in mind, let me know, and I’ll give you some advice.”

Lu Jiaxin agreed.

The two returned to Hong Kong, and Lu Jiaxin went to visit Guh Xiuxiu and Guh Haifan at the Guh Residence. Not having seen them for over half a month, she felt they both had gained quite a bit of weight.

Aunt Mei said with a smile, “We’ve had a new chef recently, and the meals he cooks are to the old lady’s and Young Master Cousin’s taste. They’ve been eating more and haven’t controlled their weight. But that’s alright, they look better with a bit more weight.”

Guh Xiuxiu was displeased, “Being fat is not good-looking, I can’t even wear a cheongsam.”

Lu Jiaxin chimed in to support Aunt Mei, “Aunt, to look good in a cheongsam, one needs to have a fuller figure. It’s not attractive at all with a scrawny body, I think you look just perfect the way you are now.”

Guh Xiuxiu replied cheerfully, “You young lady sure have a way with words. Aunt Mei, go, bring me that diamond orchid necklace to give her.”

Aunt Mei said she’d go and get it in a while, and Lu Jiaxin thanked her with a beaming smile.

After lunch, Lu Jiaxin had to go back, and Guh Haifan held her hand, reluctant to let her go, “Cousin, you will come and have dinner with us for Lantern Festival, won’t you?”

Lu Jiaxin assured that she always kept her word and would fulfill any promises she had made.

He Bin was already waiting at the villa for her, and Lu Jiaxin handed over the collected information as soon as she sat down. During this period, he had identified six companies that met Lu Jiaxin’s criteria through connections, and after further screening, four were left.

Lu Jiaxin flipped through the information and saw that these four real estate companies were not very profitable. This was normal, as if they were quality assets, they would not likely be sold.

She casually browsed through and then put the information on the table, saying with a smile, “Mr. He, you have worked hard these days. I’ll let you know when I’ve decided which company to go with.”

Acquiring a company is not that easy. You first have to make contact, and once both parties have reached an intention, lawyers and auditors need to be sent to audit the other company.

He Bin said respectfully, “Boss, if there’s anything else you need, just instruct me.”

Seeing the work Lu Jiaxin was giving him, it was clear she intended to acquire one of them. Being so young and about to own her real estate company, her future prospects were immeasurable, so it was essential to hold on tightly to this “big thigh.”

He Bin was glad that he hadn’t looked down on Lu Jiaxin like the others around him had. He had always been polite to her, which was why he had this opportunity. Like Aunt Hong, who almost got fired for looking down on Miss Lu, now whenever Miss Cousin came over, she would retreat to her room to avoid her.

Lu Jiaxin said, “I now want to buy a burial plot, and after I purchase it, I need to have my mom’s and my grandmother’s graves relocated. It’s not an issue for my mom, but on my grandmother’s side… Aunt visited my grandmother’s grave the year before last, and you went with her. You know the situation with the Ding Family, and they will surely try to stop us.”

He Bin thought this was not a difficult issue and that it could be resolved by giving the Ding Family some money. The Mainland is quite poor now, and the Ding Family is even worse off, barely affording meat, so offering them a few thousand Hua currency would surely keep them from causing trouble.

Lu Jiaxin certainly knew that giving them money would solve the problem, but she was unwilling to give money to such a shameless family, “I have heard from Aunt that the roads over there are in terrible condition. My grandmother and my mom didn’t have a single good day in the Ding Family, I’d rather donate one million Hong Kong Dollars to the local government for road construction than give the Ding Family a single cent.”

He Bin understood her intentions, “Rest assured, boss, I will arrange everything properly.”

Lu Jiaxin had such confidence in him to handle the matter properly, which was why she was prepared to entrust such an important task to him.
