Chapter 353: 353: I feel like a bastard
“Young Master, the Zhan family interfered with the piece of land that we wanted in J City. Their participation messed up the bidding price, and since we weren’t prepared for this, they just notified us that the auction would be delayed.”
Di Yunxi had just passed the card that contained 60 million USD to his little sister, which was why he was in an extremely good mood as he returned to his hotel room. He also received the news that Zhan Lichuan had decided to challenge him.
A slight smile appeared on his face, but he maintained an indifferent expression. “Let them know that there’s no need for the delay. Just do it as planned.”
“But….. the auction will be opened in two days. We wouldn’t be able to come up with a new proposal by that time.”
“There’s no need for a new one. Just use the one from before.”
The assistant was shocked. “If we use the same proposal as before, the price offered by the Zhan family is at least 20% lesser than ours. They are not only well prepared for the bid, but they are also purposely targeting us.”
“It’s alright. I’ll get him to return these lands the same way he took them.” Di Yunxi’s smile was still the same. No one knew what he was thinking.
The assistant wants to continue speaking, but the First Young Master is the Director of the corporations. The Chairman doesn’t even care about what happens in the corporations. If the Director has already made a decision, who is he to say anything else?
The Zhan family may not be one of those families in the Imperial City, but they may be even stronger than the Di family financially. Did you really think that it would be that easy for him to give back the land that he have bid for?
The assistant had no idea what his boss was thinking.
However, Di Yunxi might be smiling, but the warm, gentle smile was not sincere.
There was a cold look in his eyes.
Previously, he still thought that Zhan Lichuan was quite a talented man and wanted to further collaborate with him. They might not be friends, but their relationship was considered cordial.
But this shameless man took away his little sister!
As he thought of his little sister, who got taken away from them, she wasn’t even properly treated since young, and they were using her for money! When she turned into an adult without even enjoying her teenage years, she got sold to the Zhan family to help change their luck.
Di Yunxi was heartbroken, and he could feel the pain that came from his heart.
As he was surprised by the miracle of how ‘blood is thicker than water’, he was also thinking of how to completely destroy the Zhan family.
At that moment, an unknown number called him, and as Di Yunxi answered, the other party immediately spoke up. “Young Master Di, I am Du Yanzheng.”
The gentle smile once again appeared on Di Yunxi’s face.
“Perhaps Young Master Du suddenly thought of going back on your words and wanted me to pay for the damages of the Silber?”
“That won’t be necessary, Young Master Di. It’s just a car after all.”
“But it belonged to your late wife.” Di Yunxi was purposely putting salt onto Du Yanzheng’s wounds, where it hurt the most.
Du Yanzheng turned quiet. Just when Di Yunxi thought that he would hang up on him, Du Yanzheng spoke up.
“You’re right. It was my late wife’s favorite car. She always loved that car. When she died, I thought of keeping it with me just to remember her, but I never expected it to be gone so suddenly, just like my late wife.”
Di Yunxi then replied with humor, “Well, you make me feel like a bastard.”
“That won’t be necessary.”
Hearing how the other party was replying to him in a serious tone, Di Yunxi almost spitted out blood.
Can’t you tell that I’m actually insulting you?
“From what I’m hearing, it seems like you had a really close relationship with your late wife.”
“That’s right. She was the girl that I raised. I was like a father and a brother to her.”
‘That’s just gross. Instead of treating her like your daughter, you took the girl that you raised as your wife,’ Di Yunxi thought. Nevertheless, his reply to Du Yanzheng was “Your love for her is definitely thicker than blood.”
