450: The one that benefits the most
"You should answer it." Zhan Lichuan turned toward Jing Qian and said, "They usually wouldn't call Zhe Yan. What if something important happened?"
As soon as Zhe Yan answered the call, the other party started babbling non-stop.
After Zhe Yan was forced to listen to them, he couldn't help but ask, "Wait a minute, Mr. Jing. From what you're saying, you think that it's our Young Master who burned down your house?"
...
"I can tell you with affirmation that if our Young Master really wanted to get rid of you, you can immediately pronounce the bankruptcy of your company tomorrow morning."
...
"That's right. It's not our Young Master. As for Young Master Jie, I have no idea where he is."
...
"Young Mistress is together with Young Master. She has no idea as well. Alright, that's all."
Zhe Yan was a domineering person when it came to dealing with others, but as soon as he ended the call and saw everyone looking at him, he immediately put on a different demeanor.
"Mr. Jing said that their house caught on fire today, and they thought that it was because they made you angry, Sir. I told him that you did no such thing, and he should have believed what I said. Plus, I think Young Master Jie ran away from home today and isn't at home up till now. They thought that the Young Mistress was hiding him. I've already told them otherwise."
"It's true that Jing Jie is with me."
Zhe Yan was completely caught off guard.
"He doesn't want to return home. I gave him some money and told him to stay outside so that he can continue doing what he wants."
"You did the right thing."
Zhan Lichuan and Di Yunxi spoke simultaneously.
The curiosity in Master Zhan's heart grew.
Why does it feel like there's something wrong with their relationship?
"I have multiple properties under my name. If he has nowhere to go, you can pick one that will match his preferences."
Ever since the last time his wife got detained in the police station because of Jing Jie, who fought with the gangsters, he was aware that this younger brother was the only one whom his wife cared about in the entire Jing family.
The ones whom his wife cared about would also be the people he would be concerned with as well.
As his brother-in-law, he was still extremely generous.
"That won't be necessary. I've already made the arrangements."
"Do you still need to give him money? Do you have enough? If you don't..."
It wouldn't be nice for him to directly hand a card over to his sister. Instead, he passed the document that consisted of the land deed which Zhan Lichuan had just gifted him and handed it to Jing Qian.
"Since this was given to me by the Third Young Master, and I didn't spend a single penny on it, I should give it to you then. Although it was bidded at a price of 16.8 billion, it can actually go up to 20 billion. You would have to spend a lot of money, time, and effort to develop it. Don't waste your time on it. Just sell it for 20 billion, and you would be able to support your brother with that money."
Master Zhan was shocked.
Looks like Ah Chuan has met with a powerful love rival.
As for Zhan Lichuan, the only thought going on in his mind was— 'Thank god this was his brother-in-law. If Du Yanzheng was as generous and gentle as Di Yunxi, he was worried that his wife might be moved by his action and would be taken away from him.'
Jing Qian, on the other hand, was staring at the document and gulped.
MONEY!
20 BILLION!
His brother was giving it to her without blinking an eye.
This was it. He would definitely make a great elder brother.
"It's…. It's alright."
God knows that she just gave all of her fortunes to a few of her friends and she still didn't have the guts to ask them back for it, save for Kuan Yuchen who was an exception. She was the classic case where the human was still alive, but all the money was gone.
Twenty billion was a huge amount to her now.
