Although obtaining this territory would bring great benefits to Leng Minhang, but sometimes trees grow so tall that they attract the wind.
The greater the benefits, the higher the risks.
Not to mention, the Yun family was eyeing this with great interest behind the scenes.
It had been a tense and thrilling night.
Glancing at the time, it was already around ten o’clock. Luo Xi was so tired that her eyelids could barely stay open. Leng Youran didn’t see any items she was interested in, so she left with her daughter in disappointment.
Luo Xi yawned, her eyes brimming with tears as she softly asked Leng Minhang, “I’m so tired, can we go home and sleep now?”
Leng Minhang reached out and wiped the tears from the corner of her eye, a trace of gentleness flashing in his eyes as he nodded slightly.
Luo Xi reached out and hugged his arm, nuzzling against it. In her hazy state, she thought she saw someone come over and speak to Leng Minhang.
She forced her eyes open wide to see who it was, only to be startled.
Oh no!
“Young Master Leng, you really know how to catch us off guard. As expected of a big CEO, you’ve learned the shrewdness of the previous generation!” Feng Lingye narrowed his eyes as he looked at the two of them. His eyes paused briefly on Luo Xi.
“Likewise.” Leng Minhang gave him a cold glance and then pulled Luo Xi closer to him.
“So this is Young Master Leng’s little wife. Hearing about her beauty doesn’t do her justice. She is truly a beauty of the century. No wonder she can get special treatment from a man like Young Master Leng who has never shown much interest in women.” Feng Lingye said meaningfully after noticing Leng Minhang’s action.
Coldness flashed in Leng Minhang’s eyes. “Mr. Feng seems quite free. Is the large piece of land not enough to keep you busy? Do you still want to find more things to do?”
Feng Lingye smiled slightly. “Even if the land is larger, it’s still not as important as running into you, my long-lost brother, right?”
“Heh, I don’t recall having a brother like you.” Leng Minhang sneered.
Luo Xi listened to their exchange of words and was greatly surprised.
So these two already knew each other? Why had she never seen this man in her previous life?
“Mr. Leng has indeed become more and more ruthless. But the parting gift you sent me this time is really too big, so big that I can’t quite bear it. So whenever you have time, I must return the favor, otherwise I won’t be able to rest easy.”
The last sentence was said through gritted teeth.
Leng Minhang’s mouth curled up slightly. He said, “If you like it, then it’s fine. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving first. Mr. Feng, feel free.”
With that, he unhesitatingly turned and left with Luo Xi in his arms.
A cold glint flashed in Feng Lingye’s eyes.
Luo Xi curiously asked Leng Minhang, “Who was that man? He seems quite familiar with you.”
“An irrelevant person.” Leng Minhang replied vaguely.
“Oh…” Luo Xi nodded. Although she knew that it was definitely not as simple as he said, but since Leng Minhang didn’t want to make it clear, she didn’t need to ask further.
Back at the hotel, she collapsed onto the bed like a pile of mud, unwilling to move at all.
Leng Minhang loosened his tie, his voice slightly hoarse. “Go take a shower first.”
“I’ll rest for a bit, you go first.” Luo Xi murmured with half-closed eyes.
Leng Minhang paused for a moment, then went into the bathroom.
When he came out, the little woman who had said she would rest a bit was already fast asleep.
One should not have believed her.
He shook his head helplessly, reached out to move her dangling feet onto the bed, and pulled the blanket over her. That’s when he noticed she was still clutching the blood jade in her hand.
Does she like it that much?
