Chapter 209 The President's Daughter Falls in Love with Him 8
Under the gaze that seemed innocent but actually contained coercion, Chen Min had to tell the truth.
"Zhiyi, this matter... seems like uncle misunderstood. The investment promotion was only halfway done, and the Ouyang family said they wanted to take over the rest. This is actually a bit against the rules..."
"But Ouyang Ye came to me personally and mentioned you. I thought it wasn't a big deal, and the Ouyang family's qualifications were indeed sufficient, so I agreed. This... that kid said you knew."
The fingers gripping the handbag exerted force, and the soft leather rubbed against the delicately trimmed nails, making an unpleasant sound on behalf of its owner.
Xie Anqi sighed in a fake manner: "It's a bit regrettable. I can't compare with the Ouyang family. This trip has been in vain. How about I treat you to a meal to make up for it?"
Lin Zhiyi could naturally hear Xie Anqi's tone. She was indeed unhappy at the moment and didn't need this guy to add fuel to the fire.
His face turned cold and he said, "Can we sign the contract?"
Chen Min quickly shook his head: "Not yet."
"Then I'll trouble Uncle Chen to help. Although the Xie family is not in the capital, they still have capital and enough funds to support half of the development."
Chen Min was surprised and asked, "Zhiyi means that half of this is... the Ouyang family?"
"Of course, Uncle Chen won't be left with no explanation. The Ouyang family won't give too much profit to the government, but Xie Anqi is different. What he needs is not money, but connections."
"He can make concessions on the profit front. Since this is for official business, there's no room for sympathy. Whoever benefits the country will be promoted. If the Ouyang family doesn't understand such a simple matter, they can ask my father."
Chen Min immediately looked at Xie Anqi.
Xie Anqi smiled and said, "We'll all follow Zhiyi's opinion. Director Chen can decide on the profit."
What is a pie in the sky? This is it!
The development of the West District is extremely costly, and bearing half of the development costs is already a sky-high price. Anyone who can come to invest would say that the risk is too great, and they are petty and want to fleece the government of all the wool.
Right now, Xie Anqi is his savior. If this really succeeds, he will have made a great contribution.
Chen Min's attitude towards Xie An changed 180 degrees. He shook hands with Xie An and patted his shoulders so warmly that I almost thought he had seen the God of Wealth...
He knew what kind of family the Xie family was, but he didn't need to think too much about it because he was already on the side of the president.
It's normal for people over there to dislike him, and he doesn't need to be shy about anything. If someone comes to his door and gives him money, he'd be a fool not to accept it.
They even took out their meeting cards and felt like they were old friends. They drafted a simple contract and settled it on a tentative basis, but the details would still need to be discussed slowly.
Even though it was just a preliminary agreement, they still discussed it for the whole morning. Lin Zhiyi didn't want to listen, so she just drank tea in the living room. Naturally, no one dared to neglect her.
She had noticed Xie Anqi's strategy of retreating in order to advance. Compared to Ouyang Ye, this man was more scheming, but he was more frank and stated clearly what he wanted from the beginning.
Obviously, they are both ambitious, but their perspectives are different, so her attitude is naturally different.
However, Ouyang Ye actually used her name to gain so many benefits while keeping her hanging, which really made her sick.
This is what she discovered, how many more have she not discovered?
The office door opened, and Chen Min and Xie Anqi walked out with a smile on their faces.
As clear as when they first met, her jade-like eyes had undergone a noticeable change in just this morning, like a sharp blade that had been gathering strength for a long time, about to reveal its blade...
Lin Zhiyi didn't mind. She liked everything that was sharp and aggressive, which would make the people around her feel powerful.
My hands, unable to draw anything, were itching to pick up the paintbrush and paint the changes in the man's eyes.
He took a few steps forward, took Xie Anqi's hand and walked out, not forgetting to be polite and said: "Goodbye, Uncle Chen, I brought a gift for Sister Chen Xiao and have sent it to the Chen family. I hope she likes it."
"She's just a little girl. What gift are you going to give her? Walk slowly. Her heels are so high!" Chen Min reminded her with a smile behind her.
Xie Anqi looked at the girl beside him meaningfully. Her thoughtful mind was completely different from her arrogant and ostentatious appearance.
Bringing gifts to a place like this wouldn't be a good idea, but for children... it's just right.
At the beginning, Lin Zhiyi gave him the impression of being innocent, straightforward, and a typical spoiled girl. He didn't dislike her at all. He thought it was normal for her to be spoiled given her background.
But as they got to know each other better, the impression she left on him gradually became more and more distinct. Her loneliness, hesitation, intelligence, and even her ease in getting along with the old fox all stirred him...
I drove out to pack some sushi and bought a simple set of art supplies.
Lin Zhiyi took Xie Anqi to the bank of the Yang River in Beijing, asked someone to sit next to her, set up the drawing board, and closed her eyes.
Xie Anqi didn't ask her what she wanted to paint, as she was so anxious. He just stayed with her quietly, feeling the same breeze...
After about five minutes of silence, Lin Zhiyi picked up the paintbrush and placed it on the cardboard, but was unable to move for a long time.
Her awakened will could take the lead, but the experiences of this body could not be erased, and she really could not draw anything.
After all, creation requires inspiration and passion, but as the president's daughter, the suffocation behind her flamboyant and unrestrained behavior is also real...
Xie Anqi asked, "What do you want to draw?"
"your eyes."
Xie Anqi was surprised by the answer. He smiled, took out his cell phone and hugged her. The two of them took a selfie facing the river breeze.
Then he placed the phone under the drawing board, held her hand holding the paintbrush, dipped it in paint and painted on the white paper.
With just two strokes, Lin Zhiyi asked in surprise, "You can also draw?"
"I learned a little bit when I was a kid, and even after all these years, I still remember some of it."
Looking at the two pairs of eyes gradually taking shape under her pen, although they are far from being masterpieces, it is indeed her hand waving, provided that one ignores the large hand in her hand.
Because they were painting together, Xie Anqi almost completely held her in his arms, the distance between boyfriend and girlfriend was just like that, they even kissed...
Lin Zhiyi laughed out loud: "Xie Anqi, you are really a scheming man. If I really like you, will I be schemed against badly?"
Xie Anqi calmly tightened his grip around her waist: "If you want to know the answer, then try it. How can you know the answer if you don't try it?"
Lin Zhiyi slapped his hand away: "Forget it, I'm scared. What you said is very dangerous. You feel like a scumbag."
Xie Anqi was helpless: "What can I do? I don't want to lie to you, but I don't want to pretend to be a good man. I also have to make Zhizhi like me. It's so difficult for me."
This statement itself made her feel amused, and Lin Zhiyi pretended to be annoyed.
"Did you calculate which bite I would take and deliberately act in front of me?"
Xie Anqi hugged her slender waist again, closing the distance between them, staring at those red lips: "You can eat it even if you don't like it. I don't need Zhizhi to be responsible now."
Want to kiss her again?
If I don't take responsibility, she's also a little...
Before Xiao Xiao's thoughts could change, someone in the distance said with displeasure: "Zhi Yi."
Xie Anqi's eyes darkened and he kissed her directly.
