My Life Or Your Memory - Chapter 80

“Xie Jingyu, it is so rare for you to invite me out,” he said with a grin on his face as if the two of them were old friends.

While the expressions of the men and Bai Lian turned ugly, Xie Jingyu just looked at him casually and nodded his head, gesturing for him to take a seat.

The young man was surprised by the calmness that Xie Jingyu was showing, and he narrowed his eyes slightly, but the smile on his face was unchanged.

“You know, I heard some strange rumor about you being married,” the man continued as if the silence in the room was comfortable and not awkward at all.

“I’m married,” Xie Jingyu admitted generously. He would never hide Yu Huiyin’s identity, but his words shocked the man, and the smile on his face faltered for a moment before it grew even more splendid.

“Now, this is interesting. You have never been interested in women, but suddenly the world knows that you are married. Your old man has done everything in his power to make you marry, don’t tell me that this woman was picked by him?”

“She wasn’t. I picked her.” Xie Jingyu did not feel that there was any reason to hide these things, so he admitted it generously.

Bai Lian and the men were all puzzled. These two men were not friends. They were not even on cooperation terms, but it seemed that they got along well now.

Bai Lian had her hands clenched tightly because the subject of their conversation was Yu Huiyin. How could that bitch possibly deserve Xie Jingyu?

“Well, she was picked by you, that means she is quite outstanding. Why don’t you bring her next time so that I can see her?” the young man could not help but ask, but Xie Jingyu just snorted.

“She is too pretty. I do not want you to see her in case you fall in love with her too.”

The lips of the young man twitched. He was indeed a playboy, but he was not going for married women, not to mention he only saw women as accessories, there was no chance that he would ever fall in love with her, he thought.

Silence descended on the room while Xie Jingyu waved his hand. One of the men stepped forward and brought with him a briefcase. Inside were a number of doc.u.ments that Xie Jingyu handed the young man.

“Mo Jinyao, this is my sincerity,” he said, and the young man, Mo Jinyao, looked at the doc.u.ments with a grim expression on his face.

The more he read, the more surprised he became. “You did not have to go all out, what do you want for this?”

“I have a shipment of goods that are coming in soon. Help me with that shipment, and make sure that no one causes troubles around the next year’s lunar new year.”

“Lunar new year? Are you going to celebrate something?”

“I am.”

Mo Jinyao contemplated. He understood that although the monetary value of what Xie Jingyu offered wasn’t a lot, the changes it brought with it was amazing.

There was an island that focused on casinos in the country. This island was different from others as the laws there was made by the owner of the casinos, and a third of them belonged to Xie Jingyu.

It was impossible to get in on the market there unless one owed a casino themselves, and while only a third belonged to Xie Jingyu, he was the one with the most say on the entire island.

What he offered was one of his casinos, alongside several restaurants and one hotel.

This was an immensely alluring offer, and Mo Jinyao could not help but squint his eyes.

This was almost too good to be true, but then again, the shipment of goods contained some danger, and he understood why this hot potato was thrown to him.

But for some weird reason, what he felt was the most important to Xie Jingyu was not the goods, but the deal about peace around the Lunar New Year. What could be happening around Lunar New Year that required their gangs to become peaceful?

“I have my wedding just after the Lunar New Year,” Xie Jingyu said again. He would not be able to hide it, so he might as well be forthcoming about it.

“I see,” Mo Jinyao finally understood that Xie Jingyu was a hopeless romantic. For the sake of romance, he was not against giving away such a mighty hand.

“Well then, I will be discourteous if I pretend that I don’t want it,” Mo Jinyao smiled, but under his smile was a bit of heaviness. He felt that he had to see this woman that Xie Jingyu had fallen for. How could she possibly warrant Xie Jingyu to throw a money-making business away like this?

Although he wanted to see Yu Huiyin, he was not stupid enough to tell Xie Jingyu. He had already realized that this man was hopelessly in love with his wife. Hence he was never going to allow any other man near her sight if he could avoid it.

It seemed that he had to tread carefully not to alert Xie Jingyu, but still have a good talk with the woman who was said to be his wife.

The two continued talking, and during their conversations, Xie Jingyu bragged about Yu Huiyin more than once, making Bai Lian by the side so furious that her face went pale and her nails dug deep into her palms.

When Mo Jinyao finally left, Bai Lian could not hold back any longer. “CEO Xie, why would you give up one of our casinos just for the sake of peace? It is not worth it!”
