Mr. Xiao, can I borrow your wedding invitation?

Chapter 36 Consider coming with me
Xiao Jiayang glanced at the shirt he had thrown back and quickly understood what was going on. He went over and hugged Jiang Rourou from behind. "Rourou, how could you suspect me like that? Let me tell you the truth. The female assistant who just joined the company recently has taken a liking to me. She's always trying to throw herself at me. Just today at the dinner party, she deliberately got drunk and fell into my arms, leaving me covered in her perfume and lipstick. It was disgusting. With so many people watching, as a junior manager, I couldn't just stand by and do nothing, could I?"

"Is everything you said true?" Jiang Rourou asked, tears still clinging to her eyelashes, half-believing and half-doubting.

Xiao Jiayang looked completely innocent. "Of course, when have I ever lied to you? This woman can't stay. I'll fire her before I leave work!"

Before she could even investigate, Xiao Jiayang had already explained everything in detail. His proactive and sincere attitude made it hard for anyone to doubt him.

Perhaps she was overthinking things and had misunderstood him. Jiang Rourou felt very guilty about this.

“Brother Jiayang, actually I wasn’t being temperamental just now, I just…”

Xiao Jiayang turned her around, held up three fingers, and put his acting skills to the fullest. "My dear Rou Rou, I know you're doing this because you care about me. I swear to you, I will only love you for the rest of my life. If I'm lying, may God punish me..."

Jiang Rourou pressed her hand against his lips, "Don't say such things, Brother Jiayang, I believe you!"

Overwhelmed with emotion, she subconsciously tilted her head back, closed her eyes, and clearly waited to kiss Xiao Jiayang.

Xiao Jiayang dared not kiss her, afraid he would lose control. Don't let Jiang Rourou's petite stature fool you, she has an extremely strong libido. If he didn't rely on medication, he wouldn't be able to satisfy her at all.

He only pretended to be brave in order to maintain his masculine dignity.

Besides, he had just fired a few bullets, so how could he possibly hand them over again?

It will kill people!
"Rou Rou, I can't give it to you today. I have a bit of a cold and I'm afraid of infecting you. I'll make it up to you another day, okay?"

Xiao Jiayang gently touched her forehead, which was enough to calm her down.

Jiang Rourou was quite unhappy, after all, they hadn't done it for several days and had already broken the record.

Suddenly remembering something else, Jiang Rourou's eyes reddened in just a few seconds.

"Rou Rou, what's wrong with you again?" Xiao Jiayang asked, his heart aching.

Jiang Rourou looked sad. "You know Jia Yang, right? In the Nan family, I've always been suppressed by my sister. She's always targeting me. I've thought about it for a long time and want to prove myself with my abilities. I'm no worse than her, so I found a beauty salon project. I want to have my own business, but it requires tens of millions of investment, and I'm still short of money. I... where would I get that much money? Oh well, I still can't compare to my sister!"

As Jiang Rourou spoke, she cried even more aggrievedly.

Xiao Jiayang comforted her, "It's nothing, I'll give you the money first, don't cry, okay?"

"Fifty million!"

"Five..." Xiao Jiayang almost bit his tongue. He should have known better than to agree so readily.

But words spoken are like water spilled; if he, the eldest grandson of the Xiao family, doesn't keep his word, wouldn't he become a laughingstock?
"I don't have that much, but I'll give you four thousand first!"

He could simply transfer some money from the company account for her to use. After all, he was in charge of that project, and as long as no one checked the accounts, no one would know. Jiang Rourou could just make up the difference when she earned the money.

Jiang Rourou felt guilty for being able to spend so much money on her without hesitation; how could she doubt such a good brother as Jiayang?

She wrapped her arms around Xiao Jiayang's neck and said, "Brother Jiayang, you're so good to me. I'll do anything you need in the future!"

Forty million, and with some additional scraps I managed to scrape together, that should be about right.

Why did Xiao Jiayang fall for Jiang Rourou in the first place? Besides her obedient and docile nature, the most important reason was her skill in bed. "Mmm...ah...Rourou, I can't take it anymore!"

Jiang Rourou lifted her head from between his legs and smiled sweetly, "Don't worry, Brother Jiayang, I'll be out soon!"

No sooner had Jiang Rourou received the money from Xiao Jiayang than she received a call from Du Lin.

He has already signed a purchase contract with Nan Wu. Now, if she intervenes and signs another contract with Du Lin, they can get the villa.

All is ready except for the opportunity.

Jiang Rourou went to find Du Lin with great joy, only to be told the truth.

"I'm so sorry, Miss Jiang, but I'm not selling this villa!"

Jiang Rourou almost jumped off the sofa. "What did you say? You're not going to turn it on? We agreed on this before, and now you're saying you won't? Are you kidding me?"

Du Lin handed her a real estate magazine, tapped it twice, and said, "Look, there are new development plans around this villa. In two years, the price will rise sharply. Who would let someone else have the opportunity to make money?"

Jiang Rourou grew impatient. "Who can say for sure what will happen two years from now? Why don't we raise the price now? Here's the deal: I'll list this house for 40 million, and I'll give you an extra 2 million. Add to that the service fee we agreed on before, and it'll be 43 million. If I weren't waiting to use it as my wedding home, I really wouldn't be interested in this house. Don't come back to me later if I regret it. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"

Du Lin shrugged regretfully, "Then we're destined to be apart!"

"You..." Jiang Rourou thought that her provocation would work, but who knew that the other party would not buy it at all, and she couldn't help but choke up.

He patiently negotiated again, saying, "Mr. Du, I'm buying this house in good faith. You've already agreed to it, so you can't go back on your word. Or you can name a price!"

Let her pay more; as long as she can kick Nan Wu out of the Nan family, it's worth it for her to bleed a little.

Du Lin stroked his chin and thought about it seriously for a moment. "How about this, I'll compromise, and you can just give me 60 million!"

Jiang Rourou's eyes widened. "What? Sixty million? Mr. Du, I think you're deliberately making things difficult for me. You just ask for more than ten million. Why don't you just rob me!"

Du Lin shrugged. "Then there's nothing to discuss!"

After saying that, Jiang Rourou was about to leave when she gritted her teeth and stamped her foot. "Fine, sixty million it is. I'll get the money in three days, and you can hand over the house. I hope you keep your word!"

Du Lin smiled broadly, "Of course there's money to be made!"

As soon as Jiang Rourou left, he called Nan Wu and said, "Miss Nan is incredibly resourceful! Jiang Rourou has already gone back to raise the money!"

Nan Wu turned the steering wheel with one hand, executed a beautiful drift, and the car slammed into the parking space with perfect accuracy. "That's all thanks to Mr. Du's excellent teamwork!"

"Of course! I work so hard, don't you really want to consider being with me?"

"Uh! Well, let's keep in touch later!" Then he hung up.

Du Lin looked at the blacked-out phone and shook his head regretfully.

Isn't he gentler than Brother Shen? Honestly, she'll regret it sooner or later.
