Fourth Uncle

Chapter 242 You Are Acting Like a Fool

"What's your attitude?" Chen Nan asked.

Jian Ning chuckled, "I'm not a very ambitious person. If I had a few billion in this life, that would be enough for me to splurge and spend."

"Sister Wanting and I feel pretty much the same."

"We should sell some shares while Long Yin is still hot!"

"After all, Long Yin's initial capital was only two hundred million, and now the net profit has reached over four hundred million."

"Coupled with the other party's sincerity, we can definitely sell some shares."

"Thirty billion, who in Jizhou has that much asset?"

"Even Jiang Jiancheng doesn't have that much money, right?"

Chen Nan's mind raced, "There must be quite a few people who want to invest in Long Yin, right?"

Jian Ning replied, "Yes, our two drinks have caused an astonishing reaction in the market. Many companies are optimistic about us. That listed company offering three million is just one of them!"

"Oh, right!"

"An appraisal company has valued our company. If we can go public in five years, we'll definitely be the number one stock in the beverage industry, with a market value exceeding Nongfu Spring."

Chen Nan nodded slightly, "In that case, let's sell the entire company!"

Jian Ning was shocked, "What did you say? Sell the entire company? The company has huge potential, why sell it?"

Chen Nan said, "Five years is too long. Who knows what it will be like in five years?"

Jian Ning was speechless.

Chen Nan smiled, "Listen to me, selling the company is definitely not a bad thing!"

If Jia Xiu hadn't come yesterday.

And hadn't told him about the predicament this world was about to face.

He definitely wouldn't have sold the company.

But now, selling the company was not a bad thing.

After all.

He understood the principle that a tall tree catches the wind.

Chen Nan said, "You and Sister Wanting discuss it, hold an auction. The highest bidder gets the Long Yin brand, as well as the formulas for the Cooling Soup and Warming Soup!"

"Alright, I'll go to the company and talk to her later." Jian Ning didn't say much more. Selling the company while Long Yin was on the rise was a good choice.

Not to mention, wouldn't a hundred billion be easy to achieve?

After the meal.

Jian Ning left villa number 95.

Chen Nan sat cross-legged alone, cultivating, washing away the fatigue from the previous night.

Ding dong!

The doorbell rang outside.

He walked to the balcony and saw Xie Churan standing outside, smiling and waving at him.

A black trench coat paired with a turtleneck sweater and knee-high boots made her look stunningly beautiful.

Chen Nan gently landed on the balcony and then opened the main door.

"Are you home alone?" Xie Churan had a light, elegant makeup on, especially her bright red lips that looked exceptionally alluring.

"My dad and them are out of town. I'm here alone now!" After Xie Churan entered the house, Chen Nan casually locked the main door.

The two chatted like ordinary friends as they entered the villa.

However.

Once inside the villa, Xie Churan revealed her fierce side.

Like a tigress, she pushed Chen Nan onto the sofa.

Expressing her longing for the past period through action.

For some reason though.

Xie Churan was clearly not in the right state.

Chen Nan even had to suggest changing positions.

In the past, a single glance would have been enough for her to understand...

------

"Chen Nan, there's something I need to tell you."

After their intimacy.

Xie Churan, with a flushed face, lit a cigarette, a complex glint flashing in her eyes. "Ling'er seems to have fallen for you!"

Chen Nan shivered, "No way? How could she fall for me? We haven't had much contact privately!"

Chen Nan was genuinely a little panicked.

After all, he and Xie Churan were close friends. If Xie Ling'er really fell for him, it would definitely become an invisible obstacle between them.

At the same time, he understood why Xie Churan wasn't in the right state.

Xie Churan sighed, "I know you two don't have much private contact, but during the time you were away, she almost mentioned you every day."

"Moreover, I can see from her eyes that she might have fallen for you."

As someone who had experienced it before, she could understand her daughter's feelings.

Although she had always hoped her daughter would find a boyfriend, she wasn't happy at all now.

After all, she had already regarded Chen Nan as the other half of her life!

How could she allow her daughter to fall for him?

Even though there were absurd situations in ancient times where a mother and daughter served the same husband, as a relatively traditional woman, she couldn't accept such a thing.

Chen Nan also had a headache.

He did know why Xie Ling'er might have fallen for him.

Many things happened when he entered her dream to save her. She even took advantage of him in the dream.

Even if she believed it was a dream,

That dream would still subtly make her like him.

Xie Churan said, "Chen Nan, from what I know of Ling'er, she will definitely confess to you. If she really comes, I hope you won't reject her."

"What the hell do you mean?" Chen Nan looked at her in disbelief, never expecting her to say such a thing.

Xie Churan sighed, "That girl is spoiled by me. I fulfill her every request, so she can't handle any setbacks."

"Besides, you are the first boy she has liked and confessed to. If you directly reject her, she definitely won't be able to handle the blow."

Chen Nan quickly waved his hands, "Don't joke, don't joke. Although Ling'er is very outstanding, I never thought about anything with her."

"Let's go a million steps back, if I really accepted her, and she wanted... wanted... to do that with me, what should I do?"

"Accept or refuse?"

"If I accept, am I still a man?"

Xie Churan nestled tightly in his arms, her eyes filled with pain, "If it really comes to that, then forget me. I can't fight her for you."

"You're being ridiculous!" Chen Nan said angrily, "I'm a person, not a toy, how can I be passed around by you and your mother like this? No, I absolutely will not accept her."

"Just as if your sister is begging you, okay?" Xie Churan's eyes were filled with tears, looking pitiful.

"This..."

Chen Nan was defeated by her gaze.

Just as he was about to speak, Xie Churan's phone rang, displaying Xie Ling'er's nickname.

She made a shushing gesture, then answered the phone, "I'm at the company, what's up?"

"Nothing, just asking where you are. Then you go ahead and be busy! I want to eat hot pot for lunch, buy some back. That's all for now, muah!" Xie Ling'er said with a smile and hung up.

Xie Churan breathed a sigh of relief. Her daughter was still asleep when she left, so she hadn't informed her.

As soon as she hung up the phone.

The villa's doorbell rang.

"You quickly tidy up your clothes, I'll go open the door!" Chen Nan said, getting up and walking out.

But as soon as he opened the entrance door and saw the figure standing outside the villa gate.

His entire body froze as if struck by lightning!

Who else was standing outside the door but Xie Ling'er?
