Chapter 130 - Bao Family

Yu Yan looked around and clicked her tongue. "It seems that you've gotten used to waste money now."

"What are you talking about, ah?"

Looking at Feng Mian's red face, Yu Yan resisted the urge to laugh. Her best friend came from an ordinary family, which was quite a simple family that couldn't even allow her to spend money recklessly. Now that she had gotten married, her lifestyle had started to change.

However, it was clear that Feng Mian also rarely came to a place like this. 

"I'm just saying that Mrs. Zhang now can book VIP place."

Feng Mian's face turned even redder. "This is to celebrate your marriage and also uh… what do you say this morning about your cousins?"

"My cousins are devious." Yu Yan grinned. "They just cheated a scum out of his money, so I'm feeling happy right now."

"Come here." Feng Mian patted the seat so that the two of them could chat more comfortably. "Are you not worried that the man will sell it back again for steeper price?"

"No one will want to buy it." Yu Yan shook her head. Other businessmen would think twice before giving such a high price to buy the mine. Besides, Bao Tu would require a lot of diamonds to expand his business and if he sold the profit rights, he would have to fork a large sum of money just to buy the material.

Why would he want to do something so inefficient?

"I see." Feng Mian pursed her lips. She pointed to the menu. "Let's order some food first before talking about the detail. I heard that you take a few days' off from work?"

"Yeah, I have been overworked by that demon for a long time, so I need some break." Yu Yan smiled. "Oh, sorry, I mean, your husband."

Feng Mian rolled her eyes. "I know you've been calling him demon in private… Well, I do too."

The two ladies looked at each other then laughed once more.

"By the way, how's your husband doing? I asked Liang about him but he only want to tell me that he's part of Dragon Clan and didn't divulge the rest." Feng Mian wanted to rebuke Zhang Liang whenever she thought about it. Why did he have to be so secretive?

Yu Yan nodded. "He's quite busy. Oh right, you don't know him that good, right? He's a good man and lately, he's been helping me with my matter."

"Oh right, the scamming one."

"Do you have to call it that way?"

Feng Mian smiled. "I'm glad that you're happy now, Yan'er."

Happy?

Thinking about it, Yu Yan still could remember that when she met with Feng Mian again, she was still quite adamant in talking about her revenge. But after spending days with Long Ying, she no longer thought that much about her revenge that it was even pushed to the back of her mind.

The change was quite big and she herself felt that it was quite absurd. But thinking about it again, aside from the little things that she liked to do, her life was constantly bothered by her family members. Again and again, she felt that they were challenging her bottom limit until she couldn't stand it anymore.

Just because she had low capabilities and all, they simply didn't want to accept her. All they could see was her talented sister who could do everything.

But when she met with Long Ying, all she wanted was to spend more time with him to know him better and to be always together with him. It was to the point that she no longer even cared that much about her revenge that she had been thinking so much.

"Yan'er?"

Yu Yan raised her head and smiled sweetly. "Yeah, I'm happy to be able to meet with him."

"Hmm, now I'm wondering whether you'll be able to stay alive or not if he left you first."

"HEY! DON'T JINX MY HUSBAND!"

"I'm not!" Feng Mian rolled her eyes. "I'm just saying since your position is filled with danger and it's not that strange for one of you to get hurt."

Yu Yan was silent. Would she be able to stay alive if there was no Long Ying? It was not something she wanted to think, ever, but now that Feng Mian uttered the question, she had to think about it.

Slowly, Yu Yan replied, "I can live, but I won't be able to fall in love again."

He's the first and will be the last person I ever loved.

She didn't want to be a crazy woman who killed herself just to be with her husband right away. However, she knew that it would be impossible for her to open up her heart anymore. The only person who could fill her heart would be Long Ying and him alone. 

Feng Mian smiled faintly. "That's good."

"What?"

"I'm worried that I'll lose my best friend soon."

"Hey! Don't you dare jinx it! Now, talk more about your new project. I heard that you hit it off greatly with that troublemaker Tian Quan."

...

Long Ying headed to the base and stayed there. However, he purposely didn't take any mission that required him to get out today. There would be someone who come to the headquarter and he had to entertain the guest. 

The other members of Dragon Clan knew that their Boss would only direct them from the base today, so they were being very diligent. No one wanted to make Long Ying angry or they would be sent to Island A directly for additional training.

"Boss, someone from Bao Family comes."

"Let him in." Long Ying directly gave permission for the person to come.

The door opened and Bao Wang, Bao Tu's uncle, came in. He was the one who held control over Bao Family and right now, he had a grave expression on his face. Looking at how calm Long Ying was, he felt even more uncertain to step forward.

Long Ying raised his head. His silver eyes directly looked at the middle aged man in front of him. "Don't you want to come in?"

"Clan Head..." Bao Wang took a deep breath then he bowed down. "I beg of you to let Bao Family off."

"Why don't I understand what you're talking about, Mr. Bao?" Long Ying asked in a calm tone. He really didn't do anything to Bao Family, but Bao Wang must have heard about his sudden visit to Bao Gold Family Company. Bao Gold Family Company belonged to Bao Tu but some of the shareholders were part of Bao Family.

They would panic if they knew Long Ying's real identity.

Bao Wang was the only one within Bao Family who knew Long Ying's real identity because he had once made a deal with Dragon Clan. Besides, Bao Family was one of the few influential family in City A, which was where Long Family resided. It would be impossible for the family head to not know the real power of Long Family.

They had been staying in City A for decades and naturally knew that Long Family was connected to Dragon Clan. They also could only get stronger if they managed to gain understanding of Dragon Clan, which was something all big families in City A did.

"Master Long must be joking. I heard that Master Long paid a visit to my nephew's company yesterday." Bao Wang's expression was not good when he talked about this. He raised his head and he could only see Long Ying looking back at him calmly.

The other family members were only laughing when Bao Tu told them that Long Ying came to sell his shares. They regarded him as a stupid beggar who didn't even know what was worth a lot. 

However, Bao Wang knew very well that if Long Ying was willing to let go of something, it must mean something else. There was no way Long Ying would want Bao Tu to stay away from Yu Yan since Bao Tu didn't even bother to care about that woman again.

He had investigated his son and knew very well that while Bao Tu was head over heels over Yu Yan in the past, that dumb brat was not dedicated enough. He easily fell for other scheming woman and ended up forgetting about Yu Yan so fast. It was to the point that even he wanted to knock that brat's head.

Though, it also meant that Bao Tu would not try to bother Yu Yan too much anymore.

He was still a principled man that the Bao Family educated ever since he was young.

The story didn't match up.

Long Ying smiled. "I'm sure your nephew had told you the story. I come only to sell the shares of the worthless mine, which your nephew treated as treasure."

Worthless?

Bao Wang had heard that the amount of diamonds produced each year was quite substantial. It would be an exaggeration to say that the mine was worthless, right? Besides, the sale of the diamonds at that quality also earned millions per year even after deducting the expenditure.

He looked at Long Ying and felt that it was really his nephew bad luck to encounter someone like this. 

"Would Dragon Clan hinder Bao Family?"

"Do I have a reason to?" Long Ying asked back. So far, Bao Family was simply doing things in accordance to the rules. 

Bao Wang opened his mouth. "Your previous trip?"

"I only have some misgiving with your nephew and not the entire Bao Family.. Is that clear enough, Mr. Bao?"
