Chapter 362: Ten Billion 2
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
One hundred billion was not just an extravagant demand; it was an astronomical figure. Not to mention him, even his father would have some difficulty taking out ten billion all of a sudden. Of course, this didn’t mean that his father didn’t have ten billion, but to suddenly produce that amount of money would be really difficult.
“l know!” Ye Leng’an nodded and looked at Huangfu Ruixiang with a smile. “Didn’t you tell me to name my price just now? I think ten billion is a very suitable price.”
Seeing Ye Leng’an’s nonchalant expression, Huangfu Ruixiangs eyebrows twitched. He gritted his teeth and said, “Ten billion. Miss Ye, even robbing a bank you can’t get ten billion. Don’t you think the price you offered is too preposterous?”
He didn’t expect Ye Lengan to be so bold as to ask for ten billion. Now, it appeared that her appetite was much larger than he had anticipated, and it took him by surprise.
“Robbing a bank is illegal. I’m a law-abiding citizen and will never do such a thing,” Ye Lengan said with a smile. “Besides, I think my price is very reasonable! I’m even making a disadvantageous deal by asking for this ten billion. Don’t you know that Huangfu Ruilings net worth is far more than ten billion?”
Huangfu Ruixiang felt the veins on his forehead were about to pop out. He rubbed his temples, his eyes threatening. “Miss Ye, do you think you’re worth ten billion? Did you even consider your own worth before making such a demand? Ten billion, it’s quite a stretch for you to ask for that kind of sum.”
“Why not? Weren’t you the one who told me to name my price?” Ye Lengan raised her head and looked at Huangfu Ruixiang with a faint smile. “That’s why I say sometimes it’s better not to make rash promises. Otherwise, when you can’t fulfill what you’ve said, you’ll have to blame others.”
Her expression seemed to mock Huangfu Ruixiang, implying that he was all talk and no action, and her gaze was filled with disdain and a hint of doubt.
Meeting Ye Leng’an’s gaze, Huangfu Ruixiang felt his patience was nearing its limit. “Miss Ye, it seems you have no sincerity in negotiating with me. Otherwise, you wouldn’t have said an amount like ten billion. You’re just toying with me, right?”
He didn’t think Ye Leng’an was sincere at all. If she were truly sincere, she wouldn’t have named such a ridiculous price. It seemed he had been played by Ye Lengan this whole time.
“Am I playing you, or are you playing me?” Ye Lengan looked at Huangfu Ruixiang contemptuously. “Weren’t you the one who told me to name the price? And just now you solemnly swore no matter what price I offered you could afford it. Now that I’ve told you the price already, yet you’re making excuses. I don’t think you have any sincerity at all.”
“You…” Huangfu Ruixiang was so angry he could barely speak. “1 did tell you to name your price, but I didn’t ask you to throw out an exorbitant demand! Ten billion, you really have the audacity to ask for that much! Ye Lengan, who do you think you are?”
“It’s precisely because I know who 1 am that 1 1 m asking for so much,” Ye Lengan said with a smile. “Besides, I think the price I mentioned is already low. After all, Huangfu Ruilings net worth speaks for itself. Just ten billion, and I already feel like I’m shortchanging myself.”
“Do you think you can get ten billion just by being at my brother’s side?” Huangfu Ruixiangs face was full of sarcasm. “Don’t tell me just because my brother calls you his girlfriend, you actually think you can enter our Huangfu family? Ye Lengan, it’s important to know your own status. You should know who you are. Right now, you still hold some novelty for my brother, so he’s willing to grant you the title of girlfriend in public. When he grows tired of you, you’ll be nothing. It’s an honor that we’re willing to give you a chance now. If you don’t cherish it, don’t blame us for being impolite to you..”
