Chapter 403 A Major Client
Compared to before, Li Jiajia’s slender figure had noticeably filled out. Adorned with gold and silver, her entire ensemble was branded with luxury goods, with the outfit alone costing at least a hundred thousand. Clearly, Li Jiajia had been living quite comfortably these past few days.
“Miss Li, it’s absolutely true,” a young man said, his expression unsightly.
“Useless! Utterly useless! You can’t even accomplish such a simple task!” Li Jiajia cursed furiously.
She turned to look at Li Hongyan, who was sitting nearby, seemingly lost in thought, and asked anxiously, “Auntie, what should we do?”
Li Hongyan pondered for a moment, then gritted her teeth and said, “Investigate. Investigate who that young man is!”
“Yes, Auntie!”
Li Jiajia nodded, then turned to scold the young man, “You incompetent dog, hurry up and investigate.”
The young man, scared out of his wits, repeatedly agreed and stumbled away.
Li Hongyan stared at the clear blue sky and sniffed disdainfully, “I want to see who can break this situation that even the Lu family couldn’t resolve!”
The next morning, Chen Xuan received a call from the president of Hongqi Bank himself. Thirty billion in cash was ready, and Chen Xuan was invited to inspect it.
He tidied himself up and headed downstairs, preparing to leave.
As Chen Xuan arrived at the living room on the first floor, a servant from the Su family entered with several people. Upon entering, they began working, moving items, seemingly setting up for a banquet.
“Yunxi, is there anything happening today?” Chen Xuan asked, glancing at Su Yunxi, who was sitting on the sofa, in good spirits, and sipping coffee.
Su Yunxi replied with a playful smile, “What else? The relatives in the family, seeing that it’s time for you to produce thirty billion in cash, have prepared a banquet to celebrate your success.”
“Celebrate my success?”
Chen Xuan frowned, then gave a faint smile, “Indeed, indeed.”
Su Yunxi rolled her eyes at Chen Xuan, “Do you really not see it, or are you pretending not to?”
“Regardless of the reason, it’s a celebration banquet prepared for me,” Chen Xuan said with a confident smile.
Chen Xuan could see through the intentions of the Su family relatives. They were probably celebrating his inability to get the money and his imminent departure from the Su family!
However, unfortunately for them, their plan had failed, and they were destined to be slapped in the face.
His aunt Jiang Bixia walked over, her daughter Zhen Xiaoqiong following close behind. Seeing Chen Xuan preparing to leave, she immediately stepped forward and imperiously said, “Chen Xuan, where are you going? Why aren’t you helping? Do you expect to eat and drink for free later?”
This banquet was something Jiang Bixia’s family had put a lot of effort into, with the natural aim of currying favor with Guo Yulong.
“Didn’t you want thirty billion? I’m going to get the money for you.”
Chen Xuan said with a faint smile.
“Hmph! If you can produce the money, I’ll change my surname to yours!” Zhen Xiaoqiong pouted.
“Change your surname to Chen? I’m afraid my father would beat me to death! Our Chen family doesn’t accept people like you,” Chen Xuan said, clearly displeased.
“You dare to insult me?”
It took Zhen Xiaoqiong a moment to realize that Chen Xuan was indeed insulting her. She turned to curse at him, but Chen Xuan had already sidestepped, leaving her stomping her feet in anger.
“Alright Xiaoqiong, he’s just sharp-tongued. At the banquet, we’ll see him lose all face! And be kicked out of the Su family!” Jiang Bixia said.
Zhen Xiaoqiong was Jiang Bixia’s darling. Chen Xuan daring to insult Zhen Xiaoqiong in front of her naturally angered Jiang Bixia. She quickly comforted Zhen Xiaoqiong.
“Mom, hasn’t Young Master Guo arrived yet?”
Zhen Xiaoqiong nodded and looked around.
“Young Master Guo originally planned to arrive early, but there’s a major client at the bank, and important figures from Hongqi Bank have to go and greet them. Young Master Guo can’t be an exception,” Jiang Bixia explained.
“Major client? What kind of major client is it? To warrant so many important people welcoming them?” Zhen Xiaoqiong’s beautiful eyes sparkled.
“I don’t know. I suspect it must be a top-tier figure from the provincial capital’s elite. Only such a person would be qualified to be greeted by Hongqi Bank, this god of wealth!” Jiang Bixia also said with envy in her eyes.
Hongqi Bank was known as the god of wealth in the provincial capital. Being greeted by Hongqi Bank, they must be a major client, a big shot.
“If I could meet such a big shot, I would definitely try my best to get into his bed,” Zhen Xiaoqiong said shamelessly.
Chen Xuan smiled.
I wouldn’t be interested in a snob like you.
“What are you laughing at? Useless!” Zhen Xiaoqiong glanced at the smile on Chen Xuan’s face and snapped.
“Who told you to speak to your brother-in-law like that?” Su Yunxi stood up, her expression stern, carrying a certain authority.
“Cousin, he doesn’t deserve you…” Zhen Xiaoqiong restrained herself slightly.
“Shut up!”
Su Yunxi’s expression turned cold, and Zhen Xiaoqiong dared not say another word.
Afterward, Su Yunxi pulled Chen Xuan aside and said softly with a smile, “Chen Xuan, don’t worry, it’s fine. I’ve already leveraged Grandpa’s connections and arranged to secure a thirty billion loan from Jinghang.”
“Ah?”
Chen Xuan was taken aback. He hadn’t expected Su Yunxi to actually secure the loan.
However, a loan was still a loan, with interest. How could it be as comfortable as using his own money?
“Yunxi, you haven’t signed the contract yet, have you?”
Chen Xuan asked urgently.
“No.”
Su Yunxi’s beautiful eyes narrowed, and she said firmly, “When the banquet begins, I’ll have someone bring back the contract, and I’ll sign the loan agreement in front of everyone. At that time, we’ll say it was your connection, and you’ll sign it.”
Chen Xuan knew Su Yunxi’s good intentions and felt a warmth in his heart. He couldn’t bear to refuse, but he could prepare the cash in advance, so there would be no need to sign.
“Yunxi, thank you. I have something to attend to, so I’m heading out.”
With that, Chen Xuan drove towards Hongqi Bank.
At this moment, in Hongqi Bank, Guo Yulong was leaning back in his office chair, his feet resting on the desk, a phone to his ear.
“Hello, the Su family applied for a loan from your Jinghang, right? How about we cancel this loan agreement? Brother, I know you have a good relationship with the Su family, but you should also realize that siding with the Su family now will not be beneficial to your bank.”
“What if many enterprise groups withdraw all their funds from your bank? Your bank might suffer.”
“You refuse?”
“Alright, alright, thank you, brother!”
After speaking, Guo Yulong hung up the phone, his eyes filled with greed, and he murmured with a cold smile, “Su Yunxi, Su Yunxi, your Su family has angered everyone. Only I can save you! You can only borrow from me for this loan!”
“Hahahaha!”
His laughter echoed in the office.
Just then, Guo Yulong’s assistant stumbled in.
“Who allowed you to enter without knocking?” Guo Yulong’s expression instantly turned cold.
The assistant quickly explained, “President Guo, the branch manager couldn’t see you and asked me to inform you to hurry down and greet that distinguished guest. That distinguished guest has arrived!”
Upon hearing this, Guo Yulong jumped up from his seat with a jolt!
“Why didn’t you remind me earlier? You damned dog!” Guo Yulong cursed.
They had a meeting yesterday, and all the leaders of Hongqi Bank were to welcome that important client today.
The branch manager had even assigned him a task: to accompany that important client throughout.
That important client was no trivial matter. If he could take this opportunity to curry favor, he would be delighted.
Guo Yulong’s assistant cursed internally.
Damn it, I informed you an hour ago, and you forgot? Now you blame me?
I’m here to work, not to be a lapdog!
But, for the sake of his job, Guo Yulong’s assistant didn’t dare to say anything.
Guo Yulong rushed out to welcome the big client…
