Middle-aged tycoon: Twins come knocking on his door when he goes home for Chinese New Year
Chapter 83 Xu Shiyou of Versailles
The boy with dyed yellow hair walked to the table, and the arrogant expression on his face instantly disappeared.
At this moment, his face was full of friendly smiles, and he even looked somewhat polite.
He nodded to Li Menghan and Liu Dazhuang and asked politely:
"Excuse me, everyone. I see the cafeteria is quite crowded, and there aren't many seats available. Could we share a table with you? We can also get to know each other and become friends."
Although Li Menghan found the person's hair color quite eye-catching, he was in a good mood at the moment, and the other party's attitude was quite nice, so he didn't think much of it.
He moved his plate aside and said casually:
"Sure, have a seat. This table is spacious anyway."
Upon hearing this, Huang Mao immediately gestured for his companion behind him to sit down.
As soon as he settled down, the blond-haired man began to introduce himself in a very familiar manner:
"Thanks, bro. Let me introduce myself. My name is Xu Shiyou, and this is my buddy, Zhou Jiawang. We're both sophomores in the School of Economics and Management."
The boy named Zhou Jiawang nodded in greeting.
Sitting opposite her, Huo Qian merely glanced at the two of them indifferently, without showing much enthusiasm.
In fact, Huo Qian knew exactly what was going on with these two uninvited guests.
She came to Han City University not to play, but to carry out a family mission.
Just a few days ago, her usually arrogant father suddenly called her into his study in a mysterious manner and told her very seriously:
A guy with incredible connections came to Han City University, and he just happened to be in the same year as her.
Her father's instructions were simple and direct: approach this boy, and if she could turn him into her boyfriend, she would have done a great service to the family.
Huo Qian was initially very averse to this kind of purposeful contact.
But today at the school gate, when she saw Li Menghan get out of the Ferrari and take off her sunglasses, her initial aversion dissipated considerably.
This guy is indeed quite handsome, with an indescribable air of heroism in his eyes, which fits her aesthetic perfectly.
Since the target of the mission is a handsome guy, this task is not a difficult one.
That's why she took the initiative to add him on WeChat and even asked him to have lunch with her.
As for Xu Shiyou in front of her, Huo Qian glanced at his flamboyant trendy clothes and couldn't help but shake her head.
She'd seen plenty of guys like that; they were just rich and used their good looks to flirt with girls everywhere.
He's coming closer now because he's lusting after my body.
I don't even need to think about it; they'll definitely start that clumsy show of wealth again in a moment.
It's a pity that this blond guy's looks are really not to her liking.
What happened next unfolded exactly as Huo Qian had predicted.
After listening to Li Menghan, Liu Dazhuang, and Huo Qian's brief self-introductions, Xu Shiyou didn't pay much attention to Li Menghan and Liu Dazhuang, his gaze constantly drifting towards Huo Qian.
He feigned a sigh, revealing the large gold piece on his wrist, and began his Versailles performance:
"Sigh, to be honest, these days have been really tough."
Li Menghan casually asked, "What's wrong, senior?"
Xu Shiyou shook his head and said with a worried expression:
"It's all because of the family business. My family is in real estate, and the market has been terrible these past two years. A few days ago, I heard from my dad that the family has lost another two or three hundred million yuan in the past few months. It's making me too embarrassed to ask my family for money to buy a new car."
At this point, he pointed outside, his tone full of disdain:
"I originally planned to get a new Rolls-Royce Shining this year, but because of this loss, I still have to drive that beat-up Lamborghini when I go out. Although I spent more than five million yuan to buy that car, I've been driving it for almost a year now, and I'm really tired of it. The suspension is so stiff, it's a real pain to drive."
Upon hearing these words, Liu Dazhuang almost spat out the food in his mouth.
Lost two or three hundred million? A five million car is a piece of junk?
That's an incredibly smooth and convincing display of arrogance.
Li Menghan remained calm, nodding in agreement:
"That's right, the real estate market is indeed difficult right now, that's just the way things are."
When Xu Shiyou saw that Li Menghan had responded, he assumed that the young man was impressed by his wealth, and he became even more smug.
But seeing that Huo Qian and Liu Dazhuang were eating with their heads down and not saying much, he felt that it wasn't ready yet.
He completely ignored Li Menghan, turned to look at Huo Qian, and with what he thought was a very charming smile on his face, asked:
"By the way, Junior Huo, I see you have such a great temperament and always dress with such good taste. Your family must be in business, right? How's business lately? If you're having any problems, we can talk about it."
Huo Qian put down her chopsticks and elegantly wiped her mouth with a tissue.
She found Xu Shiyou's peacock-like display of power amusing.
She smiled slightly and said in a calm tone:
"It's alright. My family business has been doing quite well lately. My dad told me the other day that we made a net profit of several billion this quarter, and we're just wondering where to invest that money."
"Cough cough cough!"
Liu Dazhuang, who was standing next to him, was really choked this time and started coughing violently.
Xu Shiyou's smile froze for a moment. Billions? This guy's boasting is even bigger than his own?
But he reacted quickly, immediately changing to a flattering expression and leaning forward:
"Wow, that's a big deal! Looks like your family is quite wealthy. We should definitely get to know each other; maybe our families can even collaborate in the future. Come on, junior, let's add each other on WeChat?"
As he spoke, he took out his phone and displayed a QR code.
Huo Qian didn't even glance at his phone, shook her head, and refused.
"No need, senior. My family is in the photovoltaic industry, which has absolutely nothing to do with real estate, so there's not much opportunity for cooperation. Besides, my family recently acquired a lot of land and buildings to use as employee dormitories and industrial parks, so we don't have much need for real estate."
These words were so well-chosen, they completely blocked the way.
Xu Shiyou's hand froze in mid-air, unsure whether to add more or stop, his expression one of utter embarrassment.
By this time, Li Menghan and Liu Dazhuang had almost finished eating.
Seeing this, Huo Qian stood up and gave Li Menghan a sweet smile:
"Li, I had a great chat with you today. I have class this afternoon, so I'll be going now. Let's keep in touch on WeChat, and see you again this afternoon if you're free."
After saying that, she nodded to Liu Dazhuang, then without even glancing at Xu Shiyou, she picked up her bag, turned around, and gracefully left the cafeteria.
"We've finished eating, seniors, please continue eating."
Li Menghan also stood up and walked away with Liu Dazhuang, carrying their trays.
Only Xu Shiyou and Zhou Jiawang remained at the table, facing the leftovers.
Xu Shiyou watched Huo Qian's departing figure, then looked at Li Menghan's tall and straight posture, and slammed his chopsticks hard on the table in anger.
"Damn it, they're so ungrateful!"
Xu Shiyou cursed through gritted teeth.
Zhou Jiawang, standing nearby, said cautiously:
"Hey buddy, this woman seems to have high standards. She doesn't even like you, but she's taken a liking to that guy who drives a used car."
"A used car? He doesn't even deserve it!"
Xu Shiyou snorted coldly, a sinister glint flashing in his eyes:
"So what if he drives a beat-up Ferrari that's been through so many hands? A poor guy pretending to be rich. Just wait, I'll prove that only someone with my abilities deserves a woman like that! Who does he think he is!"
