Deep love is also heartless

Chapter 423 Billion

After what happened with Luan Keji, her nerves became disordered, so when Qiao Lieque threatened her, the fear caused her nerves to automatically go into a dormant state.

But everything has its limits. After a period of automatic repair, her nerves began to recover slowly, and soon she was able to think normally, which led to her escape.

However, the memory of that time was engraved in her heart. Although she later learned that it was due to the effects of drugs, the fear of men still makes Juzi feel scared. This is also the reason why she can be friends with men but cannot develop into love.

Orange suppressed the throbbing in her heart and forced herself to join in their conversation.

During the dinner, Juzi, Hong Yuyan and Shi Xiuping calculated how much money was raised in this auction. After a big data analysis, they felt that Juzi would get at least 80 billion based on a 30% share.

Juzi shuddered when he heard this, and Meng Lieque brainwashed Juzi in time: "Don't even think about 80 billion, I guess I can only give you 800 million for labor."

Juzi's eyes widened. "No way. We agreed to split the profits 70% to 30%. 80 billion is a conservative estimate. For the final 200 billion, if I split it 30%, I still have to pay 60 billion."

Wu Nuanyang shook his head and said, "I think Lieque is right. Didn't you hear the press conference say that everything on the land belongs to the state? You yourself said on Weibo that you agree that it should be owned by the state."

Ju Zi said sharply, "I was afraid that someone might want my money and my life would be in danger. But I have a 70%-30% split contract with Song Chao, signed and sealed by both parties."

"Eight billion can buy a small country, how can I give it to you as an individual?" Meng Lieque glared at Juzi and said.

Huo Lingze disagreed with Meng Lieque's statement: "You can't be so shameless, right?"

Qiao Fuguang also agreed with Huo Lingze's statement: "If you don't give me money directly, you should at least give me a piece of land, right? You can't be a scoundrel, right? If you do that, how can you have any credibility in the future?"

Qiao Hongxi chuckled and said, "My dad has already said that I lost the game when I agreed to the auction, but my life is saved. I can only choose between money or life."

Orange was silent, and so were the others.

When it was so quiet that only the sound of breathing could be heard, Orange said, "Then I'm going to die. Never mind. It's free anyway. It's just a labor fee. You have to pay me for it, right?"

Although Orange prepared herself mentally, she still felt uncomfortable. Everyone was originally very interested, but because of Qiao Hongxi's words, everyone lost interest.

Because everyone understood that what Qiao Jingteng said was almost true. Qiao Jingteng was not only a business genius, but also extremely sensitive to the situation, so he had been able to stand firm all these years.

Orange lay on the bed depressed. She suddenly felt that money was not necessarily a good thing, but it could test a person's heart. Anyway, she was not short of money. Having so much money might still be a burden. Forget it, just treat it as a dream and wake up.

The next day, Orange stayed with the old lady for the whole day. Mrs. Qiao was not as enthusiastic towards Orange as Old Man Qiao, but she was still courteous to her. Now Mrs. Qiao only had eyes for her daughter.

Juzi knew that the old lady's brain was severely atrophied and she no longer had any extra thoughts about anything else. It was not that she didn't like her, because she felt the same way about Qiao Fuguang. Only Qiao Hongxi was a little special, but that was because she had watched him grow up and he had been ingrained in her.

Orange could see that Mrs. Qiao’s days were beginning to count down, and she felt a little sad.
