Chapter 997 - Do You Know That You’ve Been Duped by Boss?
Si Yiyan said coldly, “Rumor has it that I’m a greedy businessman who knows no limits. Actually, that’s true.”
He had never been hesitant to reap benefits and would go to great extents to plot against others, especially since he was dating Wen Xinya now. He still had to earn enough money to get himself a wife and raise his family. Yes… earning money was very important.
Gu Yuehan’s expression changed. There were plenty of rumors about Si Yiyan going around in Russia. For example, he was branded as a refined gentleman who had an aura like Qingsong Yueyuan’s green bamboo and was sharp like jade, full of wisdom like Zhuge Liang and astonishingly wealthy.
However, ever since Wen Xinya appeared, he was seen as a prideful and arrogant person with a tinge of tenderness.
He gently grazed the carvings of a dragon on the jade piece, feeling much less infuriated. He no longer felt such a strong urge to kill.
Yueze stared at the dragon jade piece in Si Yiyan’s hands. Ever since Wen Xinya gave it to him, he had been keeping it with him wherever he went and Yueze would often see him fiddling with it.
Chuckling sheepishly, Xu Xianghu removed the necklace from his neck, on which there was a tiger-shaped agate pendant. “Hehe! Boss, I got a pendant for myself too. Sis-in-law has got such great taste. This pendant feels much more comfortable than average jade and it’s much sturdier too. You won’t have to worry about it being scratched or chipped off.”
Yueze covered his eyes and tried to stop himself from glaring at Xu Xianghu. He thought to himself, Xu Xianghu… you’re such a bootlicker. Do you know that?
Xu Xianghu smacked his forehead in a moment of enlightenment and said, “It’s no wonder that Sis-in-law wanted to gift this agate pendant to Boss.”
Forget about it. I’m a bachelor who doesn’t need romance. Gold looks better than agate. I might just exchange it for alcohol too.
Yueze and Gu Yuehan were speechless.
What the heck, how silly is he?
Si Yiyan put the dragon pendant away. He decided that from now on, he would keep the gifts that Wen Xinya gave him hidden from anyone else. It would just be for his own viewing pleasure and no one would have the chance to duplicate it.
