Chapter 755 - Back Then, Jiang Qifei Nearly Got Married To My Father
“Mr. Liao, Yesterday I didn’t promise if you passed me the things, I would immediately reverse the plummeting value of your company’s stocks, did I? I’m not a god. The stock prices don’t rise or fall at my command. These things take time. You don’t have to worry, the price will fall by at most, four to five dollars. You’ll still take home a few billion to enjoy your retirement.”
Nian Junting sat down on the sofa and crossed his legs.
Liao Qiulong’s face twitched in anger.
His family’s net worth had been over twenty billion, but now it was only worth a few billion.
This made no sense to him.
“You seem to have something to say. Am I being too charitable with you?”
Nian Junting rested his arms on the back of the sofa, and said coldly, “Or are you thinking you should get away scot-free after trying to play games with me?”
“No…”
“That’s good then.”
Nian Junting was satisfied, “I don’t have a superb memory but who knows, in two years, after marrying my girlfriend, and living life harmoniously, all these unpleasant memories will be forgotten. It’s not like we will never work together again. After all, I quite admire the entrepreneurship of someone who has taken his company through all the ups and downs.”
Liao Qiulong could not manage a smile.
He was now sixty-years old. In a few years, would he still have the energy to do such things?
But Nian Junting could have been insinuating that if his marriage turned out to be less than harmonious, he would find trouble with him again.
The thought of this gave Liao Qiulong palpitations. He felt the urge to give Jiang Qifei a dressing down.
He hurriedly said, “Ms. Xu is young and beautiful. The two of you look like a match made in heaven. Your marriage will definitely be harmonious.”
“Thank you for your blessings. Mr. Liao is married too and I wish the both of you many happy years ahead.” Nian Junting looked down and fiddled with his engagement ring.
Liao Qiulong noticed the ring upon Nian Junting’s ring finger. From the looks of it, he would really marry Xu Luosang soon.
He silently cursed at his rotten luck. He should have tried to understand the relationship between the two of them before agreeing to Jiang Qifei, or at least look at Xu Luosang’s photos. He had seen for himself yesterday, a young and tender beauty. He had seen many beautiful women in his life, but only a few with such allure. What man would not fall for her?
“Speaking of which…”
Nian Junting suddenly spoke in a subtle tone, “I have an affinity with Mr. Liao. Back then, Jiang Qifei nearly got married to my father, I never thought she would eventually marry you.”
Liao Qiulong was startled, he did not understand his words.
Nian Junting saw from the blank expression on his face, that he was clueless, “Mr. Liao, you don’t know the reason your wife divorced her ex-husband? It was because it derailed her marriage when she got involved with my father.”
Liao Qiulong’s facial expression completely changed.
Since he had decided to marry Jiang Qifei, he had accepted that she had been divorced, but she had always maintained that she divorced her ex-husband because of their clashed personalities. She had never brought this up before.
“So, you see, I became child to a single parent too.”
Nian Junting spread his palms and said with a tinge of sadness and regret, “But you can understand, looking at how handsome, tall and well-built I am, my father must have looked like me when he was younger. Any normal woman would have been attracted to him. Uncle Leng just fell short ever so slightly, so…”
Liao Qiulong looked as if his face was solidified in ice.
