Chapter 125: You’re Such A Smart Girl
Chen Lei stood in front of Jian Ai and sized her up with a profound gaze. Then, he slowly said, “Can you tell Uncle Chen about the origin of this East Sea Real Estate?”
Chen Lei didn’t beat around the bush. He asked frankly, since he had doubts.
Even though Jian Ai had called for a price today, Chen Lei still could not link a fourteen-year-old girl to a real estate company that could easily fork out a hundred million yuan. Therefore, what he was actually trying to ask Jian Ai about was Bai Zhou’s background.
Jian Ai couldn’t help but look back at Bai Zhou, who was chatting with others. Then, she turned to look at Chen Lei and said, “Uncle Chen, if there’s a chance, we can arrange a time.”
It was obvious that the two of them were fated. Jian Ai had just entered the Baiyun real estate world. If she had a business partner with a strong background, things would be much easier for her.
Her first choice was Chen Lei’s Century Group.
The two of them had crossed paths in the beginning. Most importantly, Chen Lei left a wonderful impression on Jian Ai. She had only saved Old Ji out of a desire to save someone. But Chen Lei immediately gave her a fifty percent discount to buy a house as repayment.
Businessmen would not wake up early unless they had something to gain, but Chen Lei’s actions were filled with humanity in Jian Ai’s eyes. Only a businessman who was not pure enough would truly understand the essence of being a businessman.
Chen Lei was stunned when he heard that, but when he saw the suggestive smile on Jian Ai’s face, he felt enlightened. He immediately smiled and nodded. “Little girl, you’ve given me a big surprise.”
Chen Lei already knew Jian Ai’s identity.
“In that case, please keep it a secret for me, Uncle Chen,” Jian Ai said and blinked playfully.
Chen Lei nodded with a smile. “Don’t worry, girl. Uncle will keep his mouth shut.”
Jian Ai took out her phone. “Uncle Chen, give me your phone number. I’ll contact you some time.”
“Okay!” Chen Lei took Jian Ai’s phone and called himself. He didn’t forget to ask, “What’s your name?”
Jian Ai recorded Chen Lei’s phone number as ‘Uncle Chen’ and said, “Uncle, just call me Xiao Ai.”
Chen Lei did not ask about Jian Ai’s full name. Instead, he felt that calling her with that name made their relationship closer. He immediately saved Jian Ai’s phone number as ‘Xiao Ai.’
As if he suddenly thought of something, Chen Lei immediately looked at Jian Ai and said helplessly, “A few days ago, Old Ji came to my place. He wanted to pay the remaining of your house that day, so I had to tell him you already paid. Because of this, Old Ji scolded me.”
Jian Ai could not help but laugh softly when she heard that. That day, when she saved Old Ji, Uncle Chen had already given her a fifty percent discount to show his gratitude. Old Ji said that he would pay the remaining half. However, Jian Ai’s family did not accept Old Ji’s gratitude but only accepted Chen Lei’s fifty percent discount.
She did not expect that Old Ji would remember this and even blame Uncle Chen because of this.
“My mother being the general manager of the Ji Group’s nightclub is already a huge favor. Moreover, I also said that the incident that day was sudden. If it were anyone else, I would have saved them still. I expected nothing in return,” Jian Ai said.
Chen Lei glared at her. “Why did you accept my fifty percent discount then?”
Jian Ai couldn’t help but smile. “Something happened to Old Ji in your territory. If it weren’t for me, someone would have died in your lobby. Of course, I have to accept your thanks!”
Seeing how Jian Ai was so reasonable, Chen Lei couldn’t help but laugh. He shook his head helplessly. “You’re such a smart girl!”
