Chapter 301 This business opportunity will definitely make your father look at you differently!
Chu Zixi raised her chin slightly, looked at Qian Duoduo with cold eyes, raised her eyebrows lightly, and said in a calm tone but with a hint of disdain: "You don't deserve to know." Her words were short and powerful, like a sharp sword piercing people's hearts, instantly making the atmosphere in the whole room tense, as if it had dropped to freezing point.
Chu Mengting was secretly amazed in her heart. Sister Xi had just handed over the banknotes, but in the blink of an eye she was so disrespectful to her. She secretly glanced at Qian Duoduo's livid face, and laughed secretly in her heart, wow, her cousin was too interesting, look how angry she made people.
Qian Duoduo's face turned blue with anger at Chu Zixi's words. Her voice unconsciously rose a few degrees, revealing her inner anger and dissatisfaction: "In this case, I won't ask any more questions, but please tell this lady about my father's news." She clenched her teeth tightly, trying to control her emotions, but the anger in her eyes burned even more fiercely.
The corners of Chu Zixi's mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile, and she seemed not to be affected by Qian Duoduo's anger.
She spoke slowly, her tone calm, "I calculated with my fingers, and your father will definitely come back home in three days, so you can go back and wait patiently."
When Qian Duoduo heard the answer, his eyes widened and his face was full of disbelief.
She could no longer suppress her anger, stared at Chu Zixi, and shouted: "Are you kidding me?"
Her voice echoed in the private room, deafening, full of anger and unwillingness. She originally thought that Chu Zixi really had news about her father, but she didn't expect that she was playing a trick on her.
Chu Mengting slammed the tea table, stood up, glared at Qian Duoduo with anger on her face, and shouted: "How dare you! How dare you be so rude in front of this princess!"
Qian Duoduo was startled and quickly suppressed the anger on his face, but the unwillingness in his eyes became more and more intense.
She took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in her heart, and tried to make her voice sound calmer: "Princess Mengting, you saw it too, she accepted my banknotes but refused to reveal any news about my father. Isn't this obviously teasing me?" Her words were filled with a bit of grievance, a bit of unwillingness, and a bit of resentment towards Chu Zixi.
Chu Mengting glanced at him coldly, with a hint of disgust in her eyes.
Her tone was cold and resolute, with an unquestionable firmness: "Since Sister Xi has already made it clear that your father will return in three days, why are you in such a hurry? Besides, you are so out of control in front of the princess, and you still want me to make the decision for you? It's really ridiculous!"
The corners of Chu Zixi's mouth rose slightly, revealing a sarcastic smile.
She glanced at Qian Duoduo, her eyes flashing with sarcasm, and said softly: "I didn't expect Miss Qian to be so filial. This kind of thought is really rare. But if your father can't come back, won't those shops and other things be inherited by Miss Qian?"
Her words were gentle, as if she was just chatting, but the deep meaning behind them was self-evident.
When Qian Duoduo heard this, his expression changed slightly and he snorted coldly, with helplessness and unwillingness in his voice.
She bit her lips tightly, a trace of hatred flashed in her eyes: "Do you think I don't want to? How can things in this world go as one wishes? Although my father dotes on me, in his heart, my half brother is always much more important than me. After all, he still loves his own son more, even if he is a concubine's son. And my mother failed to give him a son, so in my father's heart, my position seems insignificant. My father confidently handed over those shops to my half brother to manage, as if he was the only reliable candidate."
When Chu Zixi heard this, her eyes flashed slightly and the corners of her mouth curled up in a smile that was not a smile.
She whispered, "So that's how it is. Miss Qian is so eager to find her father because she probably doesn't want the business of those shops to be controlled by a bastard." Her words quietly entered Qian Duoduo's ears like drizzling rain, easily touching the pain deep in her heart.
Qian Duoduo's face became extremely gloomy, but the tenacity in her bones was hard to conceal.
She gritted her teeth and said, "Although my half-brother is in charge of the business of the shop, I, the eldest sister, have the final say in matters of this family."
Chu Zixi shook her head slightly, her evil smile getting even more intense. "Miss Qian, you are wrong. Family matters are nothing more than matters of the harem. If your half-brother continues like this, I'm afraid you won't even be able to make decisions about matters of the harem. However, speaking of this, I just happened to encounter a good thing recently, but I'm worried about the lack of funds. I wonder if Miss Qian is interested in joining us?"
After these words were spoken, not only Qian Duoduo, but even Chu Mengting beside him couldn't help but cast a puzzled look at him.
Chu Zixi raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and said in a relaxed tone: "I recently took over a new silver mine. This silver mine has great potential, but my funds are a bit tight at the moment, so I am looking for a suitable partner to develop together. If Miss Qian is interested, this business opportunity will definitely make your father look at you differently!"
Hearing this, Qian Duoduo frowned, with obvious vigilance and suspicion on his face.
After all, silver mines are an industry strictly controlled by the court. If you accidentally break the law, the consequences will be disastrous. She said worriedly: "Silver mines? That's no joke. The court has extremely strict management of it. If something goes wrong, it will probably be a disaster!" Her eyes were full of worry, but she could hardly hide her deep desire for this opportunity.
Chu Zixi blinked, a sly light flashed in her eyes, and she smiled and comforted: "Miss Qian, don't worry. With Princess Mengting here, everything will be legalized and standardized, and there will be no problems."
Although Chu Mengting felt very confused and had no idea what Sister Xi was trying to do, she still nodded in cooperation. At the same time, she secretly guessed what Sister Xi's real purpose was.
Qian Duoduo began to weigh the pros and cons in her heart. She remembered that her father often praised her half-brother for his talent in business, but always emphasized to her that women should stay at home and rarely go out.
If her father comes back and finds out that she has made a big deal and has become good friends with Princess Mengting, will he change his opinion of her?
Qian Duoduo finally said hesitantly: "This matter is of great importance. I need to go back and think about it carefully." Her answer was neither a direct refusal nor an immediate agreement. She obviously wanted to give herself some time to think deeply about it.
