Nan Xi opened his eyes, and when he saw the man who was looking at her, he was astonished … His lips moved and he could not help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.
When she looked at the floor, the vase had been smashed into pieces not far away from her. The tall duckpaw tree had revealed its roots, and the soil had been knocked over onto the ground.
Ji Shanglin's expensive leather shoes and trousers had some dirt on them, so he must have kicked the vase away.
When the vase flew over, Nan Xi had been frightened out of her wits. Such a large vase, if it had hit her head, she would have died on the spot.
"You … "Why are you here?"
Ji Shanglin sized her up before saying with a dark expression,
"If I don't come, you'll be bullied to death! What about the barbarity at home? "Why aren't you acting cocky outside?"
These words were clearly reproachful, but the tip of Nan Xi's nose was actually slightly sore. She straightened her neck and roughly wiped away the blood on the corner of her mouth, then stiffly said, "You don't need to care about me!"
With that, he broke free from Ji Shanglin's grip.
Ji Shanglin didn't forcefully restrain her. He released her hand yet didn't forget to coldly reply, "If it wasn't for my son, I wouldn't even bother to care about you!"
He stood in front of Nan Xi, completely covering her small body. She wasn't weak either, but she still acted out with him like she was the strongest person in the entire universe.
Nan Xi unhappily stood to the side, as if he were brushing off the feeling of existence.
Ji Shanglin narrowed his eyes as he looked at the group of people in front of him …
His gaze was cold and fierce, and his demeanor was condescending. He looked down on the crowd with a domineering gaze, as if he was the most arrogant person in the world!
The moment Ji Shanglin appeared, the surroundings suddenly quietened down. Everyone looked at him while trembling in fear. For a moment, no one dared to move.
He could be the center of attention wherever he went, like a light bulb on his head, shining.
The bodyguard that Qiao Wen brought over was here to beat someone up. Now, he would glance at Qiao Qing from time to time, as if waiting for her to give out orders.
However, Qiao Liang didn't have the time to care about this. Her gaze was all attracted by Ji Shanglin, and her little heart was thumping, her face full of shyness.
The manager of the LOVE Jewelry Shop took a long time to walk over and humbly told Ji Shanglin,
"I'm really sorry sir, this matter was originally caused by a set of jewelry from our store, may I ask who this Miss Nan and you are …?"
Ji Shanglin lowered his eyes and glanced at Nan Xi, "My home's nanny."
When he said this, the manager and the people around him all let out a secret sigh of relief.
Anyone could tell that Ji Shanglin was someone not to be trifled with, but it didn't matter if Nan Xi was a nanny.
After all, no one would fight over a nanny.
Qiao Wen took a few deep breaths, then stealthily tidied up his clothes and hair. He took off his sunglasses, twisted his slim waist, and walked towards Ji Shanglin with a bashful expression.
"Wow, isn't this the superstar Qiao Wen?"
"Yeah, I didn't recognize her when she was wearing sunglasses just now. Oh my god! I didn't expect to see her here! "
"I've never heard of it. She's the spokesperson for LOVE Jewelry Shop, but she's really popular. I'll definitely have to get her autograph later."
The young girls who were watching the show saw that Qiao Qing was extremely fond of her. After all, she was an A-list celebrity. Meeting by chance at a shopping mall, she was naturally excited.
After hearing Ji Shanglin's words, Qiao Wen became even more confident. With a fawning smile, he walked up to Ji Shanglin and spoke in a coy voice.
"Hello, mister. I'm Qiao Wen."
Ji Shanglin glanced at her and coldly replied, "I don't know him."
The corner of Qiao Qing's mouth twitched. He was astonished, but soon recovered his smile.
"It doesn't matter if you don't know me, but I also have a relationship with South Stream, so I want to tell you what happened, I …"
"You don't need to say that. Since it's about the jewelry, then let the owner of the LOVE explain it himself."
Qiao Wen really liked Ji Shanglin. She had tried her best to talk a few more words with him, but who knew that he would put a cold butt on his hot face in front of so many people.
Unable to keep his face straight, his face flushed in embarrassment.
Manager Zhu quickly stepped forward, "My apologies sir, but our boss is not in Qingcheng right now. This is our branch and he has been overseas for the past few days."
"Then let's start the video call! Otherwise, this store will just close down! "
The moment Ji Shanglin said those words, the surrounding people immediately let out a wave of sighs.
Even South Stream couldn't help but glance at him. Wasn't this man speaking too arrogantly?!
Manager Zhu was stunned for a long time before saying softly, "Then …" "You, please come to my office. I'll call my boss right away."
She didn't dare to not call her boss when she heard the tone of his voice.
Inside the manager's office, Ji Shanglin sat on the leather sofa with a domineering air. Nanxi sat beside him like a chicken cub, while Qiao Wen sat on the sofa opposite them.
Manager Zhu had already opened the boss's video call and told him the whole story.
Nan Xi's face was gloomy, but she did not say anything. She had already been in the wrong in this matter.
The owner of the LOVE jewelry shop was a bald man with no hair on his head. He was fat and looked to be about fifty years old.
One couldn't help but to be proud when business was done so well. However, he was, after all, an old fox. He smiled and said to Ji Shanglin,
"Teacher Ji, this matter doesn't seem to be our fault, but how do you want to deal with it?"
Ji Shanglin sat on the sofa with his legs crossed and narrowed his eyes at the bald old man.
"I'll buy that set of jewelry!"
"Teacher Ji is truly a straightforward person. Since that's the case, I'll give you a discount. If you don't double the original price, I still have things to do. You guys can handle it yourselves."
Ji Shanglin was slightly displeased.
"I want everything in your store, including the entire company, except this set of jewelry!"
The boss' obedience made him turn dark.
No matter what, it was a large company that was about to go public. As its boss, he was naturally not an ordinary person.
"Teacher Ji, what do you mean by this?" It's clearly your fault. If I don't call the police and capture you, you'll already be giving me face. What else do you want? "
Ji Shanglin ignored him as he picked up his phone and made a call to Dongqing.
"I'll give you three minutes to purchase Qingcheng's LOVE Jewelers."
With that, he hung up the phone, narrowed his eyes, looked at the old man in the video and said haughtily, "I want this company to change bosses!"
Originally, he didn't think much of this small company. Who asked the owner of this store to be blind?
Just as Ji Shanglin hung up, the old man's phone rang in the video. No one knew what the other party said, but his expression suddenly darkened and he collapsed onto the sofa.
A few seconds later, he said, "I'm sorry, Teacher Ji. It was I who had eyes but failed to recognize Mount Tai. I was wrong! "Please let me go, we don't want that set of jewelry, we'll give it to Miss Nan for free, I …"
Before he could finish, Ji Shanglin's phone rang. It was Dong Qing, "Master San, it's done! Now our people are on their way to sign the contract. "
Ji Shanglin first hung up Dong Qing's phone, then placed his white hand on the board in front of him, looking at Manager Zhu with disdain, "Did you hear that?"
Manager Zhu hadn't figured out the situation yet, but he was so scared that he didn't even dare to breathe. This man … Wasn't this too swift and decisive?!
Such a large company was actually acquired by him within three minutes?!
Nan Xi was also very shocked. F * ck, he's really rich!
"Miss Qiao, right?" Ji Shanglin looked at Qiao Qing.
Qiao Wen swallowed his saliva in shock and quickly replied with an obsequious smile, "Yes, Teacher Ji doesn't need to be polite. You can just call me warm."
It was warm, and South Stream almost vomited.
"I'm not familiar with you." Ji Shanglin slapped his face again.
Ha! Nan Xi was overjoyed in his heart. He secretly gave a man millions of praises!
Qiao Wen relied on his wealth. He was used to trickery and it was rare for someone to come out and slap her in the face.
"Miss Qiao, as the saying goes, 'to hit a dog you have to look at the owner'. You hit my people, how do you account for this?"
Nan Xi had been giving him a Like in his heart, but when he heard this he frowned. What did 'hit a dog and you have to look at your master'?!
The heck, you're the dog! Your whole family is dogs!
