Chapter 231 Subduing He Jieyu (Major Chapter, Please Subscribe)_3
Zhang Jingdong now stretched out two fingers: "Two million."
"Two million?" He Jieyu bit her lip corner: "You think you can buy me with two million..."
"I'm talking about US dollars."
"... Alright, after all, you are the man that Mr. Yan approves of, I believe in your character."
Zhang Jingdong struggled to hold back a laugh: "Besides, before I go to Europe, get to know all the top-level vineyards there, especially which ones are intending to sell."
"Vineyards!?" He Jieyu's face immediately showed surprise: "You actually want to buy vineyards?"
"But do you know how much those top foreign vineyards cost? They're really expensive!"
Zhang Jingdong declared with grandeur: "Can't I buy one with one billion US dollars?"
"One billion US dollars! You... can actually afford one billion US dollars!?"
"What, do I not look like someone who can come up with one billion US dollars?"
Seeing Zhang Jingdong not seeming to joke, He Jieyu was first stunned, and then quickly remembered the Bugatti Veyron car keys of his in her bag.
She couldn't help but exclaim: "Now I fully understand why you dare to pursue Mr. Yan, and moreover, with such confidence. Turns out you're even richer than Mr. Yan!"
"Good, since that's the case, when you're in Europe, I will hang out with you. If you really can acquire a top-tier vineyard, maybe with some effort, I might be able to help you manage it. After all, I studied hotel management, and there are many things in common with managing vineyards. Besides, I'm smart and definitely can learn."
"Now you're stretching it a bit, aren't you? A rich second-generation like you, after studying, not planning to come back and inherit the family business, but actually thinking of working for me?"
He Jieyu sighed: "I'm a woman, okay? Even if I were to inherit the family business, I couldn't really inherit much. Moreover, managing hotels isn't as cool as managing vineyards!"
Seeing she also wasn't joking, Zhang Jingdong then said: "Alright, since you've said that, I also promise you. If I really come across a suitable vineyard, I will definitely acquire it and then hand it over to you to manage!"
Hearing this, He Jieyu excitedly leaned forward and grasped Zhang Jingdong's hand: "Boss Zhang, you're truly great, I will definitely work hard."
"The target has initiated physical contact with the Host, reward 100,000 yuan!"
"Also, rest assured, as soon as I go back, I will start to thoroughly research those vineyards, and I will definitely provide you with the most accurate information."
Zhang Jingdong cheerfully responded: "Your attitude now is already that of a moneymaking person."
After receiving praise, He Jieyu suddenly beamed with a smile: "Thank you for your compliment, Boss. I will certainly redouble my efforts!"
The two chatted a few more sentences when Yan Ning appeared in their view.
He Jieyu immediately got out of the car and went to meet her.
As the two approached, Yan Ning originally intended to avoid being taken advantage of by someone in the back seat and wanted to sit in the front passenger seat. However, He Jieyu had already "thoughtfully" opened the door on the other side of the back seat for her.
Yan Ning hesitated slightly, and ultimately also took a seat in the back.
He Jieyu returned to the driver's seat, swiftly maneuvered the vehicle, and the white Rolls-Royce Phantom quickly vanished from the spot.
In the first ten minutes, no one in the back seat spoke.
On one hand, Yan Ning was conscious of He Jieyu's presence, on the other hand, she was still angry with Zhang Jingdong.
Zhang Jingdong, however, sensed her anger and wanted to give her time to adjust on her own.
It wasn't until halfway through the trip that Zhang Jingdong finally couldn't help but ask: "Mr. Yan, where are we heading?"
Yan Ning was still a bit angry at that time, but because He Jieyu was present, it wasn't appropriate to let her sense that she was upset with Zhang Jingdong, otherwise she would definitely notice something.
She then replied: "Yuan Family Cuisine."
Zhang Jingdong curiously inquired: "Is it the legendary Sister Mei's Yuan Family Cuisine?"
Yan Ning nodded: "Yes."
Zhang Jingdong instantly looked forward to it: "As expected of you, this place is indeed a top-tier dining destination."
Zhang Jingdong wasn't just lavishing praise blindly, as he had heard of this place in his previous life.
Legends say that the place has gathered all of fine food, beauties, scenery, and music!
The beauty stands for the owner, Yuan Mei, who is a top-level beauty. The fine food refers to her cooking being top-notch. The beautiful scenery means this private restaurant is completely different from regular eateries; it's located inside a private garden.
The music suggests they have top-level traditional musicians who will play for you while you dine.
Yan Ning caught the anticipation in Zhang Jingdong's eyes, and seemingly casually inquired: "Do you know Sister Mei?"
Zhang Jingdong heard the implication in her words and replied with a smile: "No, I've only heard of her."
"Besides, no matter how beautiful she is, she'd fall short in front of you. I'm just looking forward to the delicious food she prepares."
Yan Ning subconsciously glanced at He Jieyu, then coyly complained: "What are you saying? What does it matter to me whether she's good-looking or not?"
Zhang Jingdong stared at her: "Indeed, what does it matter to me how good-looking she is? My heart is already preoccupied, even if I were to meet a fairy, she couldn't surpass the one in my thoughts!"
Saying this, he quietly took hold of Yan Ning's delicate hand.
Yan Ning instinctively struggled but of course couldn't break free.
Perhaps because someone's recent words were rather pleasing, so she "had no choice" but to let someone take the advantage.
Half an hour later, the white Rolls-Royce slowly stopped at a courtyard entrance.
The three of them got out of the car and entered, where Zhang Jingdong quickly noticed the legendary beautiful scenery.
This was an extremely elegant and classical courtyard.
Rockeries, flowers, bridges, flowing water, galleries... Every step held a vista, every view a dream.
Zhang Jingdong couldn't help but think to himself, let alone the top-notch food that Sister Mei would prepare later, just the scenery alone made you feel that eating anything in such an environment was a delight!
Yan Ning and her company were clearly regulars here, very familiar with everything.
Zhang Jingdong followed them through twists and turns, arriving at a two-story building with an ancient style situated in the center of the courtyard.
Upon entering, they were suddenly greeted by a graceful and charming young matron.
She first glanced at Yan Ning, then quickly looked at Zhang Jingdong with a face full of surprise.
And Zhang Jingdong also looked at her, his eyes swiftly filling with surprise as well.
