Chapter 187: Chapter 187: Determined to Meet

Back home.

“How did the interview go?” Liu Yujuan asked.

Zhao Yulu shook her head, didn’t speak, and sat down on the sofa, her expression complex.

She seemed somewhat distracted.

“Yulu, what’s really going on?” Liu Yujuan sensed something was wrong and asked again.

“Mom, do you know who the boss of Pioneer Culture is?” Zhao Yulu asked.

“How would I know?” Liu Yujuan rolled her eyes.

“It’s Xu Yang,” Zhao Yulu said.

“What!” Liu Yujuan exclaimed, “How could it be him? Didn’t you say that the copyright value of those cultural works from Pioneer Culture is worth tens of billions?”

“Yes,” Zhao Yulu nodded.

“My goodness, that’s not even accounting for Fengcai Guild and Jiangdilao. Just this one company alone, Xu Yang’s net worth is tens of billions.” Liu Yujuan was beside herself.

“Yes, just with this one company, his net worth is tens of billions,” Zhao Yulu nodded woodenly.

“That’s great, Yulu, you must get back with him; we’re talking about billions! Even if I were given a billion, I wouldn’t know how long it would take to spend it all.” Liu Yujuan trembled with excitement.

Previously, it had only been said that the valuation of Xu Yang’s Jiangdilao was in the tens of billions.

Now, just Pioneer Culture alone was worth tens of billions.

Moreover, these rights owned by Pioneer Culture were meant to be sold; they could be converted into cash directly.

Unlike Jiangdilao, which was just a valuation and couldn’t be sold for ten billion in cash.

The amount of money on the books wouldn’t be too much, at most a few billion or tens of billions.

Tens of billions, and just getting one percent for oneself would amount to hundreds of millions.

With that kind of money, one could splurge on luxury cars, mansions, all sorts of luxury goods, and global travel with absolute ease.

This time, Zhao Yulu didn’t argue, instead she fell silent.

Perhaps, getting back with Xu Yang was the best option.

Perhaps, her mother was right.

Perhaps, she really should give it a try.

If it’s as her mother said, she could get back with Xu Yang.

If it’s not as her mother said, at least it could put her mother’s mind at rest, as well as her own.

Her mother kept saying it every day.

Deep down, she also held some expectations.

Seeing Zhao Yulu seem swayed, Liu Yujuan quickly said, “Yulu, get back with Xu Yang. Trust me, just by reaching out to see him, wealth and glory would be within easy reach. You could also get back at Chen Guanglei for hitting you last time. With Xu Yang’s influence now, a single word from him would probably make Chen Guanglei penniless!”

Zhao Yulu didn’t say a word.

Liu Yujuan continued, “Yulu, no matter the outcome, you should see him. Just do as I say.”

Zhao Yulu gritted her teeth and said, “Alright, I’ll find the right time to see him.”

Liu Yujuan was overjoyed, “That’s wonderful! If you see him, the two of you can get back together.”

Thinking of becoming Xu Yang’s mother-in-law, Liu Yujuan shook with excitement.

Zhao Yulu said, “Mom, you’re so happy because if I got back with Xu Yang, you could start spending his money, right?”

Liu Yujuan didn’t deny it, “That’s one of the reasons. More importantly, you would be reclaiming the happiness that belongs to you. Now, you better think properly about what to say and do when you see Xu Yang. However, no matter what you say or do, it probably won’t matter. Just showing up in front of him already demonstrates your attitude. I have some things to take care of, so I’m heading out.”

Having finished speaking, she returned to her room, grabbed her purse, and left the house.

First, she picked up a Porsche Panamera.

Then, she went on a shopping spree on Luxury Brands Street, buying a heap of high-end clothes and handbags, as well as a precious necklace.

She even splurged on a Patek Philippe watch costing 4.8 million.

After such splurging, the money she had received from the divorce settlement dwindled down to only fifty thousand.

Previously, she had helped Zhao Yulu repay a debt of one million.

She had not intended to help Zhao Yulu with the repayment, but Zhao Yulu was so hounded by online lending agencies and friends that she had no choice but to use the money to cover Zhao Yulu’s debts.

As for the two million Zhao Yulu owed Zhao Yuxin, Liu Yujuan did not help repay it.

In her view, there was no need to repay that at all.

Zhao Yuxin’s money was essentially Xu Yang’s money.

Once Zhao Yulu reconciled with Xu Yang, that debt would naturally be gone.

…

When Liu Yujuan arrived home, she was carrying bags big and small, and on her wrist was a new watch.

“Mom, why did you buy so much stuff? And all from top brands—LV, Chanel, Dior…” Zhao Yulu looked on in shock, her eyes wide, “This all must have cost millions, right?”

“And this watch on your hand, is it new too? This looks like a limited-edition Patek Philippe watch, the kind that only top socialites buy. I remember it’s priced at 4.8 million!”

She had a discerning eye and had always wanted to break into the circle of socialites, especially after doing her homework for Wang Xiaocong’s birthday party.

She recognized at a glance that the watch Liu Yujuan was wearing was a limited-edition Patek Philippe.

At Wang Xiaocong’s birthday party, there was a rich beauty wearing that exact watch.

Sadly, despite her preparation, she failed miserably and couldn’t squeeze into the circle of socialites.

On the other hand, her sister managed to make contacts with the socialites proactively, thanks to Xu Yang.

What she hadn’t expected, though, was that Liu Yujuan would also be wearing that watch.

“You know about it, huh? Does it look good on my wrist?” Liu Yujuan flaunted, somewhat proudly shaking her wrist.

“Are you crazy? Why would you buy such an expensive watch?” Zhao Yulu said.

“Of course it looks good. What’s 4.8 million? You’re about to get back together with Xu Yang. What’s wrong with me spending in advance? Besides, it’s my money. Why do you care so much?”

“I’ll tell you—I also bought a Porsche Panamera, the top-end model. Almost all the money from the divorce is gone now, just tens of thousands left.”

“If you’re willing to go meet Xu Yang in a Porsche, I can give you the keys. But I don’t recommend you do that. It’s better if you just take a taxi to meet him. If he knows you’re living poorly, he will be even more eager for you to return to his side and provide you with the best life possible.”

Liu Yujuan didn’t see any issue with it; after all, once her daughter returned to Xu Yang’s side, she would soon have more money.

“You’ve lost your mind, spending all the money! Sure, I agreed to meet Xu Yang, but who knows what he’s really thinking? What if Xu Yang isn’t as you imagine?” Zhao Yulu said.

“Don’t worry, I’m sure it’s as I imagine. It can’t be wrong,” Liu Yujuan stated with conviction.

“I can’t understand you anymore. If it’s not like that, you’ll be left out in the cold,” Zhao Yulu said exasperatedly.

“Impossible,” Liu Yujuan said, shaking her head with a smile. “You don’t have to worry about me. When are you meeting Xu Yang?”

Zhao Yulu replied, “I haven’t decided yet.”

Liu Yujuan immediately became anxious, “What’s there to think about? Just call him, agree on a place, and go meet him.”

Zhao Yulu replied, “I’ll choose the most appropriate time to go.”

“You…” Liu Yujuan said impatiently, feeling like she’s trying to operate a hand pump. “You’re stalling over such a simple matter. You couldn’t make up your mind before, pondered over it for so long, finally made up your mind, and now you’re hesitating again? What’s this ‘most appropriate time’ nonsense? As far as I’m concerned, tomorrow is the deadline.”

Zhao Yulu said, “When to go is my decision to make. If you keep pushing, I won’t go at all.”
