Chapter 798: Contradictory People, Are They the Only Two?
"Fine, let's split it now." An Yinan didn't say anything more; she had chosen these people herself, so how could she not trust them?
Unexpectedly... this situation wasn't just an isolated case or two.
"Why did you bring an account book too?" Watching Le Rong walk in wearing high heels, she was somewhat speechless.
She had just returned from escaping death, hey, aren't you all being a bit beastly?
"You're too busy. Now that I've finally caught you, shouldn't I get down to business?" Le Rong laughed, looking radiant.
Ever since her inner knots were untied, she had become more cheerful, and with the support of the Slimming Pill and the face cream, her skin condition had improved even further, showing a trend toward looking younger.
Her Rong'an Cosmeceuticals didn't need to hire a spokesperson at all; she was the spokesperson for Rong'an Cosmeceuticals herself. Among those who knew her, who wasn't scrambling to buy it?
Because of the quality control and raw materials, every time goods arrived at the counter, they were sold out in less than half an hour.
In the City, a trend of giving face cream to get things done had sprung up.
Giving other things didn't work well, but giving face cream was guaranteed to work; after all, pillow talk was still very effective!
"Alright, alright, alright, you all must have planned this, right?" An Yinan looked at Le Rong helplessly. She had just returned, it was the first day, the very first day!
Is it really this brutal?
"The account books here are easy to reconcile, you should get to it." Le Rong smiled, her moon-white Cheongsam revealing her perfect figure completely.
"By the way, do you still have any Slimming Pill in stock? I reckon my son might need to look for you." Le Rong remembered something and gave a reminder.
An Yinan looked up from the account book, "It seems I can still spare him a little."
That was all money, how could she let the opportunity pass?
However, she hadn't refined much; previously, when she went for Gun King Special Training, she had to prepare medicine for bruises and injuries, so the Slimming Pill was a bit of a waste of effort.
Actually, the accounts for the cosmeceuticals were easy to reconcile; after all, there was a fixed shipment every month and a fixed profit every month, with very few special expenses.
"Alright, we can distribute the dividends, another sum of money in!" An Yinan leaned back on the sofa, her whole body feeling lazy. Those piles of accounts didn't seem so annoying anymore; instead, they appeared somewhat cute.
Seeing her state, Le Rong shook her head helplessly, "You, oh you, if I say you love money? You don't seem to care much. If I say you don't love money, you seem to really like the feeling of money coming in."
"If I say you love power, you find it troublesome; if I say you don't, you still need power to support yourself."
"Don't you think you are a very contradictory person?" Le Rong also sat on the sofa, leaning right next to her, and gently nudged An Yinan's arm with her own.
She was currently sitting without any proper posture; although she was wearing a Cheongsam, she didn't want to keep up appearances.
In front of others, one had to mind one's demeanor, but in front of An An, there was no need.
"Contradictory, indeed!" An Yinan admitted generously, then turned her face to the side, "You're contradictory too."
Le Rong laughed out loud, "True."
When she couldn't find Duyanlong, her heart was full of worry, afraid that he would resent her, afraid that this debt would last a lifetime.
But once they met, the worry in her heart simply snapped; it seemed as if she had seen through many things. After her son suggested sending her abroad, she didn't feel excited, but instead couldn't bear to leave her child.
"People are all contradictory, not just you and me."
"One second it might be this thought, the next second it's another; these are all uncertain things."
An Yinan rested her hand on Le Rong's shoulder, and Le Rong tilted her head, leaning directly onto An Yinan's shoulder.
"Oh my, why didn't I meet you sooner?"
Her former close friends were all tied together by interests; once their family statuses became different, their relationship changed.
But An An was different; she didn't care about money, nor status, and even less about influence.
She seemed very simple; if they could get along, they would, and if it was time to stay away, she would.
In fact, she was the simplest person of all.
"If we had met sooner, we might not be like this now." An Yinan smiled. Being with Le Rong was very comfortable; she didn't care about anything, didn't consider anything, and could speak freely and chat casually.
It was hard to imagine that she and Le Rong, with an age gap of over twenty years, would actually have this feeling.
"That's true, meeting at the best time is also quite good." Le Rong moved her head, finding a comfortable position.
When Li Kun arrived, these two women had already fallen asleep on the sofa.
Duo Xiaoyu was afraid they would catch a cold, so she specifically took a blanket and covered them both.
"They..." The corners of Li Kun's mouth twitched slightly; he seriously suspected that his mother just liked having a daughter!
Otherwise, why was her relationship with An Yinan better than with him? Is this really his biological mother?
Could it be that An Yinan is the real daughter, and he was just picked up?
"They've been asleep for half an hour, let's wait." Duo Xiaoyu said.
Since the change in the management of the City, the underworld business in Kowloon had all been cast aside. Her cooperation with Li Kun had increased, and with the large shopping malls and Li Kun's cooperation, their relationship could be considered familiar.
"Hmm, I'll go first. I have a meeting in a bit, I'll come back in two hours." Li Kun looked at his watch and said helplessly to Duo Xiaoyu.
Duo Xiaoyu nodded to show she understood, but didn't answer.
Chen Xun and Zhang Qian had both gone to report on their work, and she had to stay behind to protect An An. Her side couldn't be left without people; who knew if Eagle Country had left anyone in the City.
If they were driven to desperation and An An got hurt, it wouldn't be worth the loss.
An hour after Li Kun left, Le Rong rubbed her eyes and, realizing her posture, quickly sat up, nodding apologetically to Duo Xiaoyu.
However, just as she got up, An Yinan also woke up.
"Shall we go to the room and sleep for a while?" Le Rong said quickly.
An Yinan rubbed her temples and then sat up straight; having sat for so long, she felt like her bones were about to fall apart.
"No, Li Zai should be coming over in a bit." She took a sip of water to moisten her throat.
Le Rong smiled, "Li Zai probably can't make it today. The Stock Market is open today, he'll probably come tomorrow."
With the Stock Market opening on Friday, he needed to keep an eye on it; Li Zai wouldn't be at ease if someone else was watching.
"Right, my brain, I've forgotten everything." An Yinan was between laughter and tears; how long had it been, and she had already lost track of time.
"Li Kun came by, it's been less than an hour, he'll be back."
Duo Xiaoyu walked over at this moment and said to An Yinan.
"Their accounts are all balanced, so you have to take the twenty percent that belongs to you, right?"
"You don't need to worry about balancing the accounts, but you must accept the money!"
Duo Xiaoyu had mentioned before that as long as it was her share, there would be twenty percent for An An, but An An had never accepted it.
"I promise, the money is all clean."
Fearing that An An might have some concerns, she spoke up immediately, and even held up three fingers.
