Chapter 68 – First understanding of the current economic situation of the Bai family, overturning cognition


He Ju didn’t know the situation at the Su family. At this moment, he had already cooked clear soup, eggs, and noodles.

He felt that Si Hua would definitely like it.

Just as He Ju had just brought out two steaming bowls of noodles, he hadn’t even had time to take off his apron when someone hugged him from behind.

He Ju looked at the fair little hand around his waist and couldn’t help but curve his lips slightly, “Awake?”

Si Hua nodded, her voice sweet, “I smell the fragrance of the noodles, it’s so fragrant. He Ju, you’re amazing!”

He Ju smiled and pulled Si Hua over, “Only you would say such nice things to coax me. Alright, you’ve been hungry all day, hurry up and eat something.”

Si Hua obediently sat down across from He Ju, her natural face, though without makeup, still made He Ju’s heart flutter.

If it weren’t for considering Si Hua’s delicate health, he wouldn’t easily let go of such a delicious meal like Si Hua.

Si Hua grumbled, “I don’t know who was like a pack of wolves and almost wore me out…”

He Ju: “What? Does Sister Si Hua think it’s not enough?”

Si Hua’s face instantly turned red, “Don’t talk nonsense, I didn’t say that.”

He Ju couldn’t help but laugh, “Alright, I won’t tease you anymore, hurry up and eat, finish eating and we’ll take care of business.”

What business? Si Hua couldn’t help but think crookedly.

He Ju didn’t want to explain either, teasing Si Hua like this really made him feel very comfortable.

The two were eating quietly when He Ju received a message from Elder Jiang: He Ju, the response to this work has been very good, and the domestic market has been very hot. I plan to expand to the international market next month. Here is your payment, including the price for both domestic and international markets. I look forward to your next masterpiece.

Immediately after, He Ju’s phone vibrated again, and he looked at it carefully, the amount received: 10,000 yuan.

He Ju just glanced at it and put it down. If it’s been so hot in the domestic market, it’s definitely worth more than this price, and entering the international market and going to the Paris Fashion Show, it’s definitely worth more than this price.

However, he currently didn’t have the qualifications to negotiate terms with Elder Jiang, so he could only turn a blind eye for the time being.

He Ju believed that in the near future, this money would return to his hands intact.

Besides, this was only his first work.

After finishing her noodles, Si Hua didn’t wait for He Ju’s reaction before standing up and running to the door, “I have to go to the company tomorrow, so I’ll go back to sleep tonight!”

He Ju hadn’t even stood up before Si Hua had already run out and slammed the door shut.

He Ju couldn’t help but laugh and cry. He didn’t not have the key to Si Hua’s house, so running back like this was just changing locations.

Men, it’s fine if they don’t indulge, but once they do, they can’t hold back.

He Ju cleaned up the bowls and chopsticks, and just as he was about to go find Si Hua, he received a call from Bai Yan: “The auction will start in a week. We can go and scout the location now. I plan to take a few so-called jadeite gambling masters to the antique market. Do you want to come with me?”

With his charming wife at home, He Ju really didn’t want to go out, but after thinking about it…

He Ju agreed: “Send me the location, little brother-in-law.”

Bai Yan keenly noticed He Ju’s address and immediately stood up excitedly, “Have you won over my sister?”

He Ju: “I’ve won her over halfway!”

Bai Yan immediately became excited and changed his address without hesitation: “Brother-in-law, you really are my true brother-in-law! Will my sister be willing for you to go out so late?”

Thinking of how he had worn Si Hua out last night, He Ju guessed that her legs were probably still sore, so she should be happy for He Ju to go out tonight, right?

Thinking about it, He Ju smiled, “It’s fine, I’ll tell her in a bit.”

Bai Yan: “Great! Hurry up and come over!”

After that, Bai Yan hung up the phone.

He Ju sent a message to Si Hua explaining his whereabouts, then quickly put on a windbreaker and went out.

Five black Rolls-Royces were parked in the underground parking lot of the antique market.

He Ju and Bai Yan got out of the first car, and behind them came men and women, old and young.

He Ju really hadn’t thought of being so high-profile, but Bai Yan said, “Our family has never won at the antique market. These five cars are for compensation.”

For compensation?

He Ju was shocked: “Even if your luck is bad, you can’t compensate with five Rolls-Royces, right?”

These were Rolls-Royces, not Volkswagens!

Speaking of this, Bai Yan’s heart was breaking: “Every time my sister comes, she can compensate all the big and small companies in the country!”

What?

He Ju suddenly asked, “What about you?”

Bai Yan coolly patted the back of his head, “Compensate luxury cars!”

He Ju was instantly speechless, “Let’s not gamble, let’s go back!”

Bai Yan grabbed He Ju, “That won’t do, once this compensation enters the antique market, not gambling is not allowed, it’s the rule.”

The rule?

He Ju had never heard of such a rule, but soon a man in a suit came over and skillfully put prices and labels on these cars, obviously…

Bai Yan often came, and every time he compensated with cars.

He Ju: “How many good cars does your family have?”Bai Yan chuckled twice, pulling He Ju along as they walked inside: “My family has a private parking lot, even bigger than the First Middle School of City A. All our cars are parked there. My sister, in order to avoid drawing attention, usually drives some cheaper cars.”

He Ju suddenly fell silent, realizing that Si Hua was the true… wealthy young lady, the princess in the castle.

He, He Ju… what merits or abilities did he have?

Bai Yan continued to chat enthusiastically with He Ju: “In the future, once you marry my sister, you can visit the Bai family. We have estates and islands in the country too, it’s just that there are many family rules, and under normal circumstances, outsiders are not allowed in.”

“Also, my parents are both busy with their businesses abroad. If they knew my sister was in love, they might just fly back…”

He Ju was suddenly feeling overwhelmed!

“But don’t feel pressured, my parents will be very pleased with you.”

He Ju was puzzled: “How do you know?”

Bai Yan chuckled again: “Secret.”

Bai Yan wouldn’t say that the whole family knew Si Hua had someone she liked; they just didn’t expose it.

The group quickly arrived at the elevator, where two men wearing black masks and black suits stood. Each held a box containing masks identical to the ones they were wearing.

Bai Yan handed one to He Ju: “It’s the rule here. Apart from the staff, everyone who comes here must wear a mask to avoid conflicts.”

After He Ju put on the mask, the two staff members pressed the elevator button.

Bai Yan and He Ju, accompanied by more than a dozen so-called jade stone gambling masters, arrived at the tenth floor.

He Ju: “Isn’t the highest floor the seventeenth?”

Bai Yan: “Yes, the top seven floors will only be opened on the day of the auction.”
