"Ten thousand yuan?"
"I'll offer a hundred thousand!" A wealthy boss, adorned with gold and silver, held up a hand and shouted, "No one compete with me."
"Are you kidding? This is a life-saving item. Who are you trying to scare with such a small sum? Young Master Li, I'll offer five hundred thousand."
"Six hundred thousand!"
Ultimately, this pot of strong tea was purchased for one million yuan by a rather plump boss.
Seeing him actually pay, Li Yang's cheeks and temples began to sweat. What kind of people were these? "Sir, I'll say it again, this pot of strong tea does not have the effect of reviving the dead. It's just an ordinary pot of strong tea."
"Young Master Li speaks the truth. Thank you for the reminder, I understand." The man said with a chuckle, but as he held the pot of strong tea, he immediately bought a jade flowerpot and a jade disc to serve as a lid, carefully changing its presentation.
What's more, seeing this, the crowd not only found nothing amiss but even gave him a thumbs-up, "Classy!"
"Heh," Li Yang couldn't help but chuckle twice, unsure of what to say.
Shaking his head, he and Shui Xiang went to the office.
Shui Xiang's eyes sparkled as she looked at him and said, "Li Yang, I really didn't expect you to know medicine. You never mentioned it before."
"I know quite a bit. Would you like me to demonstrate a thing or two right now?" Li Yang looked at her bright, pretty face under the light, his heart involuntarily burning. He leaned in to kiss her.
Shui Xiang's heart skipped a beat. "Weren't you going to talk to me about the jade processing business? Let's discuss that first."
"Alright, let's talk about jade." Li Yang smiled, not in a hurry.
At first, the two chatted quite seriously, but as their breaths intertwined, the ambiguity between them grew. Then, somehow, they ended up sitting on the same office chair.
Shui Xiang shifted her hips, and a seductive sound escaped her red lips, stimulating Li Yang until he was as hard as a rock. He immediately stood up and pressed her against the desk.
He thrust forward.
"Ah!" Shui Xiang exclaimed.
Even through the fabric of her casual pants, she could feel the immense pressure.
How could it be so large?
Li Yang reached out a hand, squeezed her fragrant shoulder, then moved to her fair neck, and then slowly to her smooth, tender back.
Under the brilliant lights, her shoulders were as delicate as the finest silk satin, incredibly smooth and tender.
"Sister Shui, you are truly beautiful."
"Mmmhmm." Shui Xiang's cheeks flushed, and a spring-like moisture appeared in her eyes, clearly showing she was aroused.
Li Yang met her gaze and, without further hesitation, reached to unbutton his pants.
But at this moment, with a click, the office lights went out!
Shui Xiang was startled and moved in a panic, pushing Li Yang back onto the office chair. "Ah, I'm sorry, Li Yang. I'll call someone to check the power room right away."
As she spoke, she picked up her phone.
Li Yang, unwilling to give up, immediately embraced her, wanting to rekindle the passion. But some things are like that; once an opportunity is missed, it cannot be forced again.
Facing Li Yang's advances, Shui Xiang's body went soft, but she still pushed him away. "I'm sorry, Li Yang, I'm still not ready. Can we stop here for now? I'll satisfy you next time."
"Alright." Li Yang gave a wry smile, knowing he couldn't force it, so he didn't continue to hold her.
Although he knew that if he used force, Shui Xiang would eventually comply, it wouldn't be as beautiful that way.
They had known each other for so many years, so a few more days wouldn't make a difference.
Shui Xiang said gratefully, "Thank you, Li Yang."
"What's there to thank? This kind of thing should be consensual, shouldn't it?" Li Yang kissed her cheek and said with a smile, "I'm leaving. Don't stay up too late working."
"Mhm, be careful on your way." Shui Xiang nodded, turned on her phone's flashlight to illuminate his path.
Li Yang waved goodbye and opened the door to leave. Seeing the lights on outside, he was a bit puzzled. "Sister Shui, the lights outside are fine. Did the lights in your office blow out?"
"Huh? Maybe. I'll have someone check it later." Shui Xiang looked at the bright lights outside and was also a bit puzzled, but she didn't think much of it.
After Li Yang left, she sat down and felt the residual warmth from Li Yang on the chair. She couldn't help but press her slender legs together.
"What's going on? He's leaving already?" In the shadows, Shui Xiang's father looked astonished.
Beside him, Manager Fang was also a bit surprised. "Yes, by rights, with the lights out, he shouldn't be leaving so soon."
"Didn't you lock the door?" Shui Xiang's father asked.
Manager Fang chuckled sheepishly. "Uncle Shui, the boss just had someone check the office door this morning. If there's another problem so soon, the boss will definitely notice."
"Why don't we think of other ways? We shouldn't always be scheming in the office, don't you think?"
"That's a valid point, but if not in the office, then where?" Shui Xiang's father stroked his chin, staring at Li Yang, who was walking into the elevator, and a glint appeared in his eyes. "What about the elevator?"
"Huh?"
"Brother Li?" Just as Li Yang was about to get into his car and drive away, a young man ran over and called out to him. "Is that you, Brother Li?"
"Hmm?" Li Yang turned his head and saw a stout young man. As he ran, his belly jiggled, like a large, waterlogged ball, looking somewhat comical.
Li Yang found him somewhat familiar. After thinking for a moment, he asked in surprise, "Zhao Chen?"
"Oh my, it really is you, Brother Li!" Zhao Chen was overjoyed and said with a smile, "It's been several years since we last met. I'm surprised you still remember me."
"To be honest, if it weren't for your voice and appearance not changing much, I might not have recognized you. You've become even more comical-looking than before." Li Yang said with a smile.
Zhao Chen chuckled sheepishly. "What can I do? I'm a comedian. Looking comical helps me in this profession."
"Oh, you became an actor?" Li Yang was a little surprised.
He had known this Zhao Chen since they were very young. His family had owned several restaurants. A few years ago, he heard that a relative in the capital was doing well, so he sold his restaurants in Jiangcheng and moved his entire family to the capital to develop.
"Your family isn't in business anymore?"
"We are still in business. Acting is just for fun, just playing around."
Zhao Chen nodded and smiled. "Speaking of which, I have another hobby. You'll be shocked when I tell you, and that's collecting antiques."
"Oh?" Li Yang raised his eyebrows slightly.
Rich people in the past were almost all cultured, but rich people now are not necessarily so. He hadn't expected that this Fatty Zhao, who was uneducated in his youth, had actually improved so much in just a few years.
"What have you collected? Let me have a look?"
