Chapter 1538: I think I am arrogant, but I am actually stupid

People are usually reluctant to bring up this topic, for fear that it may be too sensitive and annoy others.

But this woman could say it so bluntly, she was indeed very straightforward.

Chen Quan didn't hate it, but he didn't want to answer this question.

He was silent for a moment, then calmly replied, "Little girl, isn't your question a little too profound? It's not appropriate to ask it in this kind of situation."

Jiang Wan shook her head and said, "We want more than just funds."

"If you have made a decision to return to the motherland and develop in the mainland, then that's fine."

"But if you want to develop abroad, when you return, you have already immigrated abroad, which will also have an impact on your investment."

"By that time, our company might fall from the top to the dust, and we would be courting our own demise."

"If that's the case, it's better not to invest. It's better to let it develop little by little, so that it can be more stable."

"Your personal choice is of no consequence to me."

"No matter where you go, we have no control over it."

"But since you want to invest, we want to know what risks we will face in the future."

"Before fully estimating how the risks will develop, I do not agree to accept your investment and let you hold so many shares in the company. This is too dangerous for us."

Chen Quan understood what she meant, pursed his lips and said nothing more.

Qiao Liancheng listened quietly beside him, looking around from time to time.

At this moment he considered himself a guard.

Because he knew that he couldn't talk or control business matters. Jiang Wan was the one who led the charge.

All she had to do was make sure there was no disturbance around and that they wouldn't be in danger.

Only then did he realize that there were actually people around the box they were in.

He was able to detect some breathing sounds acutely.

He only realized this after his internal strength had improved significantly over time.

Of course, he couldn't be as magical as described in the novels. He was just able to keenly sense some shallow breathing within five meters around.

He guessed that there were many people hiding behind this wall, probably to protect Chen Quan.

Therefore, Qiao Liancheng became more alert and his expression became more focused.

The meal was very peaceful.

He started talking about these dangerous things, and after Jiang Wan verbally refused, Chen Quan stopped mentioning the matter.

After the waiter brought the food, the two of them just had a pure chat.

They talked about everything under the sun.

It didn't matter that they started chatting. Chen Quan found that this girl was simply amazing.

Apart from politics, she has something to say about business, military and various other fields.

Even what is said is meaningful and insightful.

Even the old man was deeply touched.

We had a pleasant conversation during the meal.

When the conversation was almost over, the old man took out his business card, handed it to Jiang Wan and said, "We haven't finished talking about this topic today, and I haven't given up on the investment either."

"The request you made is what I am hesitating about now, so I can't give you a clear and satisfactory answer. It's not that I am shirking my responsibility."

Jiang Wan nodded, understanding what the old man was thinking.

Chen Quan continued: "But I hope to be your friend."

"Although you are younger, it is still good to be friends with people of different ages."

"This is my phone."

"If it's convenient, I hope you can leave your phone number."

"This way we can communicate more when we call. Even if the business is not going on, the human connection is still there."

"If there's anything you need in Hong Kong, you can still come to me. I'll do my best to help if I can."

Jiang Wan curled her lips and smiled.

She gladly accepted the business card, hesitated for a moment, asked the old man for another business card, and wrote her home phone number on the back.

He handed the business card to the old gentleman and said, "I don't have a business card, so I'll write my name on this."

"If you need anything, you can call me."

Chen Quan took it and looked at it, a hint of joy appeared on the corner of his lips, and he carefully put the business card away.

Afterwards, the two said goodbye to each other and left.

On the way back, Jiang Wan and Qiao Liancheng were very silent, and it was still the young assistant who escorted them.

This time, the assistant's attitude was more humble and respectful than before.

Neither side spoke on the way.

The car stopped in front of the guesthouse and Jiang Wan and Qiao Liancheng got out.

The assistant said "goodbye" to the two of them respectfully.

Then he drove away.

Jiang Wan and Qiao Liancheng looked at each other.

Qiao Liancheng asked, "Do you want to go back? Or walk around?"

Jiang Wan said, "Let's go back. I'm a little tired today."

The dinner with Mr. Chen looked relaxing, but it was actually very stressful.

Jiang Wan would think over every word the old man said and then come up with a corresponding response.

It can be said to be very brain-tiring.

So at this moment she felt a little dizzy and wanted to have a good rest.

Qiao Liancheng didn't say anything else and helped her walk back.

But after walking a few steps, a call came from behind again.

The two stopped and turned back to see that it was Annie.

Jiang Wan muttered in a low voice: "The person I least want to see right now is her."

"When I saw her, I wanted to punch her in the face and smash it into pieces."

Qiao Liancheng said: "Just treat her as a clown, and you won't be so angry."

"If you really want to beat her, tell me and I'll do it."

Jiang Wan looked at him in surprise.

Qiao Liancheng said: "I was afraid that you might hurt your back when you hit her."

Jiang Wan burst out laughing. Of course she knew Qiao Liancheng was joking.

There's no way he could go up and fight.

Even if she rushed forward to fight, Qiao Liancheng couldn't do it. Otherwise, his military career would end early.

While the two were whispering, Annie had already walked up to them.

She raised her chin slightly, looked at Jiang Wan proudly and said, "Why? You don't even invite an old friend in?"

"Just prepare to talk here."

Jiang Wan sneered and replied, "I don't know what I can talk to you about. This is the third time we've met, so we can't be called friends!"

"You sent me a diamond and cheated me badly. Do you want to cheat me again?"

Annie said nonchalantly, "You knew it was a trap, but you still jumped into it. Can you blame me?"

"You should say you're greedy."

"If you don't want to make that 10 yuan, how could you agree to it?"

Jiang Wan snorted coldly and said, "Everyone can say nice things, but few can really hit the point."

"If I don't accept this commission, you might come up with some way to cheat me."
