Liu Zhizhong quickly answered the phone and actively started the conversation.
"Mr. Xuan, good afternoon!"
Qian Xuan casually grunted and said, "Tonight, you're going to Teacher Luo's home for dinner, right?"
"Hehe, yes, yes, Minister Luo just called me. I heard Teacher Luo is returning, and I... hehe, wanted to brazenly ask if Mr. Xuan would be returning as well?"
"Cough, cough... cough, cough..."
Qian Xuan coughed genuinely, not faking it—it felt as if his lungs were about to explode.
Liu Zhizhong quickly said, "Mr. Xuan, are you... caught a cold again?"
It took Qian Xuan a while to catch his breath, "Yes, caught another cold. My body is such crap, I wasn't before, sigh..."
"You should still take care of yourself. With the fluctuating weather in the summer, make sure to balance the heat and cold..." Get full chapters from 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⟡𝕗𝗂𝗋𝖾⟡𝕟𝕖𝕥
"Enough, enough, I know more about health care than you do! I called to tell you that I won't be coming home tonight; Teacher Luo will go back alone. The two of you can have a good chance to get to know each other, cultivate some feelings... Oh no, maybe just emotions, just emotions..."
Liu Zhizhong felt secretly delighted, though he said outwardly, "Got it, Mr. Xuan. Actually, I was hoping to meet at your father-in-law's house, to have a meal or share a drink with you... We haven't done that yet..."
"Whatever... cough, cough... cough, cough..."
Qian Xuan voiced his impatience and began coughing again.
After a while, he calmed down and said, "You're not yet worthy to dine or drink with me! Wait until you've achieved something, then we'll talk!"
"Oh, alright, alright, I understand..."
Liu Zhizhong felt frustrated—this freak really looked down on me! Fuck... Looking down on me, but still comes to me for having a child?
But Qian Xuan continued, "However, you damn dog, you really are talented. I saw your interview video at noon. If I hadn't known the inside story, I might have been moved by it. Damn it, you harvested a good wave of popularity there, didn't you?"
"Mr. Xuan, you flatter me, flatter me. In front of you, these things are nothing."
"Good, I still appreciate that you know yourself. But you did five billion, didn't you?"
Liu Zhizhong could only respond, "You're right, Mr. Xuan, absolutely right."
"I knew it, those are their rules nowadays. However, do you want to take back the remaining 2.5 billion? I can help you with that. It can be considered... right, a kind of thanks..."
After speaking, Qian Xuan started coughing again, then cursed after calming down, "Damn it, what crap lungs did they switch in this time, sigh..."
He muttered curse words quietly, but Liu Zhizhong heard, was shocked, yet didn't dare to show it.
Mr. Qian, the powerful young master, can even switch lungs!
Liu Zhizhong hurriedly said, "Mr. Xuan's capabilities are extraordinary, Zhizhong is impressed. However, for a mere 2.5 billion, to disturb you for this, I feel embarrassed and uneasy. The interview is already out, topping the trending charts. Let's leave it, no need to trouble you, Mr. Xuan. Plus, it's risky to expose our connection. Into the wrong hands, that wouldn't be good, would it?"
"You damn dog..." Qian Xuan paused, then eventually said, "Indeed, you're quite meticulous and know how to handle situations. It seems you really have no concept of money, and that's a good thing."
"Thank you for the affirmation from Mr. Xuan."
"Alright, enough chatting. Have a nice evening with Teacher Luo, connect and communicate. I wish you guys have a pleasant time... Dammit, why do I feel so terrible, why is my heart aching so badly, fuck, I'll be damned, cough, cough... cough, cough..."
Qian Xuan then split into a fit, roared, cried, coughed violently, and then the call ended.
Liu Zhizhong stifled a laugh—the damn freak's heart was suffering a freakish torment. Why do I feel a bit excited? Hehe...
