Chapter 123: Beauty Like Jade

  Yang Yawei thought for a moment, and decided that after the fishing boat arrived at the port tomorrow, he would directly send it to Wu Heizi's place. Then, he would hire a container truck from Wu Heizi's place to bring it over. Anyway, the driver wouldn't know him, so he would have plenty of opportunities to modify the mechanical shark flag.

  However, the procedures for opening a company still need to be carefully understood by Yang Yawei, and an entire afternoon was spent browsing through these materials. As the afternoon drew near, Yang Yawei's phone suddenly rang, and when he picked it up, he saw that it was Xia Xuelan calling him. Yang Yawei was somewhat curious - this was the first time Xia Xuelan had ever initiated a call to him.

  "Hey, Xuelan." Yang Yawei picked up the phone with some curiosity.

  "Yang! Wei, are you free tonight?" Xia Xuelan asked with a smile.

  "Yes, I'm free today, what's up?" Yang Yawei responded with a sound.

  "It's okay, aren't you starting a company now? I'll treat you to dinner, let's just consider it a congratulations, no problem right? Let's go to Xingyuan near the west gate of the school." Xia Xuelan said with a smile.

  "Uh, okay, I'll treat you then. It's not right for a girl to pay." Yang Yiwei didn't refuse.

  "Don't argue with me about this, isn't today a special day? In the future when you're making money, if you want me to treat you, I won't even treat you." Xia Xue Lan lightly laughed twice.

  "Alright then." Yang Yawei thought for a moment and readily agreed.

  "Then come out now, I'll wait for you at the bottom of your dormitory building."

  "Alright, then I'll just pick it up now."

  He hung up the phone and immediately threw his mobile phone aside, covering the laptop in front of him. Then he rummaged through his clothes to find a relatively clean outfit. Actually, except for some special occasions, men's clothes are not that many. Yang Yawei didn't have much either, so he casually searched for half a day and found a relatively fashionable one. After putting it on and taking a look in the mirror, he thought it was passable. Only then did Yang Yawei nod his head in satisfaction, without realizing that he had become quite handsome too.

  It didn't take long, and when Yang Yawei came out of the dormitory, Xia Xuelan was already waiting outside. Many boys passing by couldn't help but turn their heads to look at Xia Xuelan, who was still wearing the same clothes as during the day. When she saw Yang Yawei come out, Xia Xuelan smiled and said, "Let's go."

  Yang Yawei nodded and followed, Ximen was still a distance away from Yang Yawei's dormitory building. The two walked shoulder to shoulder, Yang Yawei didn't know what to say for a moment, after thinking for a while, he finally spoke up and asked: "By the way, where is LuLu?"

  "Didn't come back, huh? I don't know, she didn't call me this afternoon either, probably busy with something." Xia Xue Lan smiled "......, speaking of which, we've known each other for so long but it seems like we haven't really talked much."

  "Uh, yeah, I'm not very good at talking to girls, let alone Baidu Tieba. It's already a miracle that I can talk to someone as beautiful as you without blushing." Yang Yawei said with a smile.

  "Hehe, maybe you haven't even noticed it yourself, but I can feel it. You've changed a lot over this period of time, compared to when I first met you, you're more confident now. It's only been such a short time, back then although your words didn't show anything, I could still sense that deep down, you were still quite resistant to me and Lulu being pretty girls, although I don't know why, but now it's gone." Xia Xue Shan lightly laughed and said.

  "Is that so? I didn't even notice myself, probably because of work and seeing more of the world. Yang Yawei was a little surprised in his heart, this girl is really sensitive, she can feel such a small change in him, thinking carefully, it's true, even he himself didn't realize it, his mindset has undergone a huge change."

  With a topic, things got much easier, and Yang Yiwei wasn't a taciturn person either. By the time they arrived at the restaurant, the two had become quite familiar with each other, and the awkwardness between them was gone. Xingyuan is one of the better and larger restaurants near C University, and most classmates' gatherings and birthday parties are usually held here.

  Two people took a window seat and after ordering food, Yang Yawei thought for a moment before asking: "Say, Xue Leng, did you have something to ask me?"

  "What's wrong? Can't I invite you out for a meal just because there's nothing going on?" Xia Xuelan asked with a smile, looking at Yang Yawei.

  "Of course, but I think you must have something on your mind today, according to my intuition as a man. If you were just inviting me out for dinner, it wouldn't be such a formal invitation." Yang Yawei thought for a moment before quickly asking.

  Xia Xue Lan smiled and nodded, "En, it's something, but not a big deal. It's like this, I have a gift for you." Xia Xue Lan said while taking out her wallet from her bag and handing over a bank card.

  "What's this?" Yang Yiwei was stunned for a moment. He certainly recognized the bank card, but what did Xia Xuelan give herself a bank card for?

  "There's 32.5 million in here, a gift I'm giving you, the password is your birthday. Although it's cash, Ke Nai might think it's a bit tacky, but aren't you still short of money for starting a company? So I decided to give you the money." Xia Xue Lan smiled and pushed the bank card over to Yang Yi Wei.

  Yang Yiwei was really stunned this time, although he knew that there must be money in the bank card, Meng Yiqi had set sail, but he didn't expect so much, 32.5 million, Xia Xuelan's family was just like his, an ordinary family, where did they get so much money? Moreover, it was a huge sum of over 30 million! Thinking about Xia Xuelan's expression when she left at noon, Yang Yiwei felt that this money came with problems.

  "Where did this money come from?" Yang Yawei couldn't think of any other way to make a quick buck, the first thing that came to mind was selling the blue sapphire he gave her, but it wouldn't sell for 3.25 million! The two pieces he gave to the two of them together might be worth that much, what else could it be? Unless... Yang Yawei's mind flashed with a bad thought, but no way! This wasn't something urgent, and Xia Xuehan wasn't that kind of girl either.

  "You don't have to worry about where this money came from, I got it through legitimate channels, didn't steal or rob anyone, and didn't ask my family for it either. Besides, even if I did take it from home, my dad wouldn't be able to afford that much anyway, not even close. Just use it with peace of mind." Xia Xuelan saw the look on Yang Yawei's face and knew he was thinking wrongly, so she gave him a white eye and said with a pout.

  "How did you get so much money?" Yang Yiwei said with some embarrassment.

  "Don't worry, it must have come from a legitimate source. I'm telling you, don't say you won't accept it, this gift you gave me, I really like it, so I accepted it. But the gift I gave you, you can't not accept it, right? Just like what you said when you gave it to me, if you consider me a friend, you should also be willing to receive from me." Xia Xue's small hand flipped over, and the perfect blue sapphire that Yang Yiwei had given her appeared in her palm.

  Yang Ywei was taken aback, he had thought that Xia Xuelan would sell the blue sapphire he gave her, but now it's still here... "Alright... I'll take it back." Although Xia Xuelan was smiling, Yang Yawei knew that if he didn't accept this gift, their friendship might be over.

  "That's right, now let's eat and don't think about it too much."

  Yang Yawei accepted it, and then Xia Xuelan smiled and said.

  "Alright, let's eat." Yang Yawei felt that this matter couldn't be inquired about here with Xia Xuelan, it would be better to ask Lu Lu instead.

  Putting this matter aside, the two of them had a pretty harmonious meal. Yang Yawei didn't know how many envious glances he attracted from the boys in the restaurant. Xia Xuelan's face turned red towards the end of the meal, and she didn't seem as carefree talking to Yang Yawei as she was at first.

  After leaving the restaurant, the sky had already completely darkened. After sending Xia Xue Lan back to her own dormitory, Yang Yi Wei only turned his head and walked towards his own dormitory, with a heavy bank card in his pocket. Yang Yi Wei took out his mobile phone and directly found Lu Lu's number to call her. Lu Lu answered the phone very quickly, but the first sentence after answering the phone made Yang Yi Wei feel somewhat depressed: "You're calling to ask about where Xue Lan's money came from, right? That money is Xue Lan's own, not borrowed from me. However, she doesn't let me tell you, so don't think you can get anything out of me either."

  "Alright." Yang Yiwei responded gloomily, "Nothing's wrong then, I'm hanging up."

  "Wait, what the...! Dammit, don't you have anything to say to me?! Lulu was getting frustrated, this guy, didn't he think she was a beauty?! Dammit, why did he look at her like a mouse seeing a cat? Was she that scary?! Lulu sulked while touching her soft and delicate little face."

  "Uh, ... no, I wasn't thinking about anything! I couldn't hide from you even if I wanted to, Lu Lu!" Yang Yiwei hastily chuckled, absolutely cannot admit this, or else this girl would blow up again.

  "Hmm! Alright, now that you've received the gift from Lian Jie, you're temporarily not short of money, but I want to invest!" Lu Lu hummed and said.

  "Huh? Invest? How much money do you want to invest?" Lulu investing in Yang Yawei's company didn't feel like a big deal, anyway her own company wouldn't always be private, the shareholding system was an inevitable path for a company's development, and having shareholders early on wasn't a problem.

  "How much money are we talking about, let's discuss it later. If you're short of money at that time, I'll make up for it. But I think we should discuss a more serious issue. Don't you think your company lacks a perfect CEO? You being the chairman of the board is fine, but as the CEO in charge of the company's operations, you're definitely not suitable? What do you think of my opinion?" Lulu asked quickly.

  Yang Yawei immediately laughed out silently, feeling that this girl was up to something.
