Chapter 5 The So-Called Transaction

I hung up the phone and turned it off.

I went back to the room and put a tub of bath water in it. After a comfortable bath, I dried my hair and changed into the only piece of clothing I brought back.My suitcase is small, 18 inches, but it is enough.I only brought a short dress and a set of underwear.

I was terrified of burdens, to the point of nervousness. Left 7 years ago empty handed.When I come back now, I don't want to bring too many things with me.

It is enough to carry money--

This is my philosophy of life.

Dressed up, I went to the restaurant to meet Lucy's appointment.

When I first entered the restaurant, I was a little uncomfortable with the deliberately dimmed atmosphere here.What is not mysterious becomes weird.

Looking in, I saw the little head looking towards the door at a glance.

I waved to Lucy.

I walked over, turned a corner, and my sight was no longer blocked by the wooden partition, and suddenly opened up.Another person jumped into view.

Lucy Yao didn't come alone, there was another sitting next to her.

The man was looking at me, with a slight smile.

Yao Qianmo.

"Long time no see." Yao Qianmo stood up and leaned over.

What followed was nothing more than a hug and a kiss on the cheek.

We have all lived in foreign countries for many years, and we have long been familiar with the etiquette of foreigners.But I subconsciously moved away uncontrollably, and stretched out my hand, "Long time no see."

Yao Qianmo stared at my outstretched hand, stunned for a few seconds, his face darkened imperceptibly, but recovered quickly, stretched out his hand, and held mine.

It was much easier to face Lucy Yao instead.

"46 minutes," Lucy Yao looked at her watch, frowned but smiled at me, "Miss Lin, it's really hard to wait!"

I took the menu and handed it to Lucy, beckoning the waiter to come over.

I said to Lucy, "You can do whatever you want. Take it as my apology."

She immediately raised her eyebrows, took the menu and clicked randomly.

Looking at Lucy like this, I secretly felt funny.

This woman, like a child, is easy to coax and deceive.

It is my honor to be friends with such a woman who has no scheming.

Yao Qianmo, Yao Lucy, brother and sister, half mother.

Their father is Yao Yichen, the chairman of Yao's, the second largest family business in Singapore.

Lucy is the shady daughter of the Yao family.Mixed race, mother is French.

Back then, the Yao family was the only conglomerate in Singapore that could keep pace with Hengsheng. It is not an exaggeration for a man like Yao Yichen, who has a successful career, to have a beautiful French lover in the romantic city of Paris.

I remember meeting Yao Yichen at my father's private reception when I was young. He was handsome and handsome when he was young, and he should be a very lucky man.

Yao Qianmo's good looks should be inherited from his father.It's just that compared with his father, Yao Qianmo is handsome and evil, and it's disturbing to laugh.

But now, the Yao family has long lost the glory of the past. Although Yao Qianmo is the only heir of the Yao family, he is not interested in doing business, but went to study law.

Lucy Yao's arrival was obviously an accident.

An unpleasant surprise.

Mrs. Yao refused to recognize her no matter what.

The siblings knew each other existed but had never met before college.

They were admitted to Stanford in the same year, Lucy and I studied business, and Yao Qianmo studied law.

The world's highest institution of higher learning, where I also met Lucy Yao.

Lucy is very special. At that time, she could not speak a word of Chinese and loved to make friends with Chinese.

I am her Chinese teacher.

At that time, I had just arrived in the United States and was living on a poor scholarship.

I don't want the money Hu Xin gave me.

And she, Lucy Yao, lacked everything, except money.

When I became friends with her, I only wanted to get what we needed.Unexpectedly, she was difficult to deal with, she was too kind to me, I couldn't stand it, and finally had to give her sincerity.

We are each other's only friends.
