Chapter 106: Exercising Boyfriend Rights in Advance

Wang Chuan withdrew his hand, changed direction, and wrapped it around Xin Chanxi's slender waist; his arm suddenly tightened, and the girl, caught off guard, collided into his embrace.

The moment their chests pressed together, Xin Chanxi's soft curves, through the cotton T-shirt, lightly pressed against Wang Chuan's heart, like freshly bloomed gardenia petals touching a scorching stone slab.

Wang Chuan was utterly shocked inside: Not wearing anything?!

His palm also clearly perceived the girl's waist, its astonishing elasticity and slender curve.

And Xin Chanxi's breath suddenly stalled, her heart stopped beating; all perception remained only the scorching warmth transmitted from the point of contact.

The summer's sweltering river wind was silent; Wang Chuan's warm lips had already gently descended, sealing her slightly parted softness.

That instant touch was a numbness like summer-night lightning; Xin Chanxi's mind buzzed with a roar.

Wang Chuan's lips were like petals simmered over slow fire, sometimes light, sometimes heavy, making Xin Chanxi's slender waist tremble slightly, emitting a trembling sigh, while a scorching tide surged from deeper within.

Her rigid back was slowly smoothed by Wang Chuan's palm; his five fingers sank deep into her messy ponytail, forcing her to tilt her head back to accept a deeper taking.

The lingering echo of the distant church evening bell mixed with the low whistle of a barge...

Until Xin Chanxi, as if oxygen-deprived, clutched his clothes tightly, did Wang Chuan retreat a mere fraction, yet still pressed against her red lips.

"I am exercising my boyfriend's rights in advance."

Xin Chanxi, her cheeks flushed, murmured: "Is it enough?" and pulled Wang Chuan's hand to place it on her own chest.

'Got the first kiss; this time it should be enough, right?' Wang Chuan thought.

The Mercedes S600 drove out of the hotel.

"Recently, our daughter is very normal." Xin Yuansheng received a call from his wife. "Let her go to your place? Let her apply to the Law School there?"

He coughed lightly. "Our daughter is eighteen; she has her own thoughts. We should respect her thoughts."

Xin Yuansheng had not high demands for his daughter Xin Chanxi; a portion of the family assets would be divided to her, ensuring she would not worry about money for the rest of her life.

The Yuansheng Group's business must still be handed over to his sons who will grow up in the future.

Otherwise, would he spend his whole life working for his son-in-law?

He did not agree; Xin Chanxi investing in Wang Chuan's new company was purely out of concern, because the new company's shareholder matters had caused unnecessary trouble for the tourism city investment.

His wife's voice came again: "Has she started dating? I know she didn't in high school."

Xin Yuansheng considered for a moment. "Probably not?"

"Is there or isn't there? What do you mean 'probably'? How are you being a father?" came a questioning voice.

"She is not dating." Xin Yuansheng thought for a moment.

That day, when he saw Wang Chuan and Xin Chanxi together, there were no intimate actions; he saw no signs of a romantic relationship. They had simply met while learning to drive.

However, that boy Wang Chuan, with his lively mind, as an outstanding medical student at the Medical School, did not have his whole heart set on becoming a famous doctor; before graduating, he went to open a company.

A bit interesting, like himself back then.

He had some good feelings toward Wang Chuan, and also because Wang Chuan was nominally his nephew, Xu Yuntao.

"You keep a close eye on her! You Mingzhou people are ultimately country folk. There are many excellent young men here; when she comes to study at university, I will introduce her to one."

Xin Yuansheng dismissed it, smiling lightly: "Yes, we Mingzhou people are all country folk. However, your husband is from the Northeast!"

"Besides, who Xin Chanxi dates depends on her own will, except for yellow-haired boys and those involved in gang life."

Xin Yuansheng chatted for a while longer, then hung up the mobile phone.

The driver in the driver's seat spoke softly: "Deputy General Manager, it's the eldest young lady!"

The Mercedes S600 drove to Old Bund Sanjiangkou; Xin Yuansheng saw Wang Chuan and Xin Chanxi waving to hail a taxi.

He quickly checked the time: 9:10 in the evening. 'Two people; where are they going?'

A thought flashed through his mind: 'They aren't running off to get a hotel room, are they?!'

His heart galloped with ten thousand horses, then fell silent!

Xin Yuansheng signaled the driver to drive over immediately.

He rolled down the window: "Good daughter, you and Wang Chuan, where are you two taking a taxi to?"

Xin Chanxi saw her father, and because of her recent intimate actions with Wang Chuan, she immediately froze, motionless.

It was Wang Chuan beside her who said: "Deputy General Manager, Xin Chanxi is helping me print some materials for the new company's registration; we are also having dinner. I was planning to take a taxi to send her home."

Xin Chanxi finally reacted and nodded vigorously.

Xin Yuansheng did not quite believe the two of them; to be safe, he said:

"You both get in the car. Wang Chuan, you live at Mingzhou First Hospital, right? Then go there first."

Xin Yuansheng opened the car door and gave the order, leaving Wang Chuan no time to refuse.

Wang Chuan sat in the front passenger seat; Xin Chanxi and her father sat in the back row.

A mobile phone ringtone sounded; Xin Yuansheng spoke loudly: "Your several Deputy General Managers, hurry up and get the money. I want to get the money legally and compliantly; don't you dare tell me about anything illegal!"

Wang Chuan, sitting in the front passenger seat, hearing the real estate developer wanted to get money, memories from his past life surfaced.

In his past life, Li Wei's father was arrested; he had once studied the domestic real estate policies of 2003 and 2004.

In March 2004, the Ministry of Land and Resources issued the "Notice on Continuing Law Enforcement Supervision and Inspection of the Tendering, Auctioning, and Listing of Operating Land Use Rights," abbreviated as the 831 Deadline.

All operating land, including commercial, tourism, entertainment, and commodity residential, must be publicly transferred via tender, auction, or listing; land plots previously transferred by agreement but with incomplete procedures must complete the land transfer payment and obtain legal vouchers before August 31, 2004, otherwise the land will be reclaimed and re-tendered, re-auctioned, or re-listed.

In 2003, the People's Bank of Country issued Document No. 121 to prevent real estate credit risks and curb investment overheating and bubbles. In April 2004, national policy stipulated that real estate development projects, excluding affordable housing, must raise their capital ratio from 20% to 35% or higher.

These policies had a significant impact on the cash flow of local real estate companies.

The Yuansheng Group is in Mingzhou, very large in Jiang Province, but not large on a national scale; it is estimated to be affected.

Suddenly, Wang Chuan remembered again: back then, at the Investment Bank, helping Xiao's Group list its core assets required divesting non-core businesses; one of those businesses was Xiao Real Estate, one of the top ten real estate companies in Jiang Province.

At that time, among the top ten real estate developers in Jiang Province, the Yuansheng Group was not listed at all.

Just now, on the giant screen at the Yuansheng Group, it was seen that the Yuansheng Group was honored as one of the top ten real estate developers in Jiang Province in 2003.

Could it be that within the next ten years, the Yuansheng Group fell out of the top ten, or went bankrupt and was liquidated?

The changes in the Yuansheng Group will definitely cause drastic changes in the Xin Family.

In his previous life, Wang Chuan had never seen Xin Chanxi at the numerous gatherings of Chen Leyan's family friends.

Xin Chanxi was Chen Leyan's closest confidante; it was impossible for her not to appear at such gatherings. While missing one might be understandable, Wang Chuan had never seen her across many occasions.

That evening, seeing the Yuansheng Group building rise abruptly from the ground, he observed a scene of glory that concealed hidden worries, much like the Jia Family in Dream of the Red Chamber, which still displayed prosperity just before its collapse.

"President Xin, are you troubled by the August 31st deadline and the Central Bank's Policy No. 121, worrying about the group's cash flow?"

Hearing Wang Chuan's words, Xin Yuansheng in the back row initially thought he had misheard and asked again, "Wang Chuan, did you just mention the August 31st deadline and Central Bank Policy No. 121?"

"Yes, President Xin," Wang Chuan replied calmly.

Xin Chanxi in the back row was also astonished; how could Brother Wang Chuan understand the real estate business? Could it be that his legal expertise lay specifically in real estate?

"To supplement cash flow in compliance with regulations, there are these several methods!"

Wang Chuan held nothing back and continued speaking.
