43 Preparing To Please Everyone (1/2)

Who was Tang Jianjun again?

He was a high-ranking official!

Countless people had requested help from him but he never paid any attention to them. He held onto this belief of his very strongly and would never soften his heart to help others. Tang Jianjun's relatives found it difficult to ask him for help as well.

Yang Dingguo recalled his company's financial crisis ten years ago. He wanted to apply for a loan with a bank to make it through the financial crisis but to no avail after multiple negotiation attempts with the person in charge. He then heard that his brother-in-law, Tang Jianjun was friends with the deputy manager of Jiannan Bank, so Yang Dingguo asked him for help multiple times but was rejected. He ultimately succeeded when his sister begged Tang Jianjun. It was then he knew that his brother-in-law held onto his belief very strongly and would not dare to seek help from him.

Never in his dreams would he expect that Ye Xiong had gotten a promise from Yang Dingguo with just a bottle of Maotai.

”Thank you, uncle. Xinyi and I will visit you in the capital when we're free.”

Ye Xiong took out a second package and passed it to Yang Yueru.

”Lil Xiong, you've given your uncle an incredibly expensive gift. Your gift to me must be of equal value, right?”

Yang Yueru took the gift and opened it up. Disappointment could be seen in her eyes as she had a look at it.

”Ye Xiong, the gift you've given to your uncle cost a few hundred thousand bucks and my gift costs only a few thousand bucks. You're way too biased!” Yang Yueru acted displeased.

”A few hundred thousand bucks?” Yang Xinyi was shocked when she heard it.

She thought that the liquor fetched a high price since it was able to make her uncle happy. Who would have thought that it would be so expensive? How did Ye Xiong find the money to buy such a thing?

”This liquor is meant for collectors and one might not be able to get it even with a few hundred thousand! It's often sold out in the market.” Yang Yueru explained.

Yang Xinyi gave Ye Xiong a complicated look as she finally understood why he kept asking about her uncle and aunt's hobby on the way home. He was preparing to please everyone.

This guy had put quite some effort into it. If she guessed correctly, he must have gifted her aunt a cosmetic product.

Yang Xinyi was right. Yang Yueru took an imported branded cosmetic product out of the package. It was the type that would cost thousands of dollars.

”Lil Aunt, take a closer look and see if it's different from the one you know.” Ye Xiong smiled.

Yang Yueru screamed in shock afterward. ”Is this the one that's personally signed by the infamous singer, Qiao Ni?”

This cosmetic product was endorsed by Qiao Ni. Rumor had it that Qiao Ni had signed only a few dozens of them when she was promoting it. She did not expect Ye Xiong to be able to get his hands on such a rare item.

Yang Xinyi had no choice but to be impressed with this man.

Ye Xiong then handed over gifts to Tang Ning and Yang Xinyi's mother Zhao Lizhen. It was all the items they loved and they were incredibly delighted.

Yang Dingguo's face became darker and darker. Everyone else had gotten their gifts except for him. Ye Xiong must have taken it to heart and was trying to embarrass him on purpose. This made Yang Dingguo incredibly unhappy.

Who would have thought this would happen when he tried to embarrass Ye Xiong earlier?

”Father, this is your gift.” Ye Xiong handed over the last gift just as Yang Dingguo believed that Ye Xiong would try and embarrass him.

He opened up the box and was incredibly delighted. It was an ivory Chinese chess set. However, he coughed and acted nothing happened as he put away the gift.

”Father, I'm sorry about earlier. I was rude to you. I'll definitely change this behavior of mine in the future.” Ye Xiong laughed as he spoke kindly.

”Look at your son-in-law and compare yourself to him. You're so old already and yet you're not as forgiving as he is. I really don't understand how you've managed to stay afloat in society for the past two decades.” Tang Jianjun who had been quiet all these while opened his mouth.

Yang Dingguo would never accept it if the others scolded him. However, he never dared to refute when it came to his sister and his brother-in-law.

They enjoyed the delightful dinner together.

”Dear, here, have a piece of meat.” Ye Xiong placed a piece of chicken into Yang Xinyi's bowl.

Yang Xinyi look disgusted all of a sudden. This b*stard knew that she hated consuming other people's saliva the most and yet he still used his own chopsticks to pass the food to her. Was this not an obvious ploy to embarrass her?
