Qiao Haidong paused, “Why do you want her number? Are you planning on giving her trouble?”

“Not at all, I just thought I’d get her number now, it might come in handy later. After all, she’s the woman my brother-in-law likes. If I get along well with her, it should only bring benefits, not harm. I can’t be like my cousin, offending everyone. Don’t you think?”

Qiao Haidong nodded, “Sure, I’ll give it to you.”

Qiao Lainan got Lan Yuyi’s number smoothly and then held her stomach and said, “Uncle, my stomach’s not feeling well, I’ll go to the restroom first.”

Qiao Haidong nodded absentmindedly. He also needed to call Madam Lu, and it would be better if Qiao Lainan wasn’t around.

He watched Qiao Lainan leave and then descended the stairs himself, found a quiet corner, and dialed Madam Lu’s number.

“Qiao Haidong, why are you looking for me? You’re not trying to return those five million to me, are you?”

“How could I do that? The money you just gave me, I haven’t even warmed it yet, how could I bear to return it to you so quickly. I’m hoping to use this money to do business. I’m calling because I have some crucial news for you.”

“What news?”

“Well, this news is very crucial. If you can give me another ten million, I will tell you, how about that?”

Madam Lu immediately became upset, her voice becoming shrill, “Qiao Haidong, are you trying to blackmail me? You dare to ask me for ten million for just a piece of news. Have I been too good to you before, that you’ve become so arrogant?”

“Hey, don’t get angry so quickly, the news I have is really important. It relates to the future of the Lu family, to be honest, asking for ten million feels too little to me!”

The more Madam Lu listened, the angrier she became, but at the same time, she was becoming curious. What news was it that gave Qiao Haidong the confidence to ask her for ten million?

“Qiao Haidong, stop beating around the bush, tell me plainly what news you have. If it’s really worth it, I won’t shortchange you. I’ve already given you five million, doesn’t it prove how generous I am?”

Hearing this, Qiao Haidong smirked.

He knew Madam Lu was stingy, this was why he had to quote a price in advance.

If he were to reveal this news directly and Madam Lu did not pay him, wouldn’t he be at a huge loss?

“Madam Lu, like I said, this news concerns the future of the Lu family, and I’m not exaggerating.”

“Please wire me ten million first, or I won’t speak.”

“Moreover, if you are slow in transferring the money, I might sell this news to Chairman Lu Mingzhen, or your son. They should both be willing to pay.”

After finishing, Qiao Haidong hung up on her.

Madam Lu on the other side of the phone was infuriated. Not only did he threaten her, but he also dared to hang up on her. She was so angry, she almost smashed her mobile phone!

“Well done Qiao Haidong, so you’ve grown a spine! Were you pretending to be humble and submissive all this time before? Just wait and see how I deal with you!”

Madam Lu cursed loudly in her home, but after venting, she began to think that Qiao Haidong might genuinely have some important news.

What if Lu Mingzhen learns about this news first? Wouldn’t she be at a disadvantage then?

She changed her outfit, called for her driver, and set out to find Qiao Haidong.

Meanwhile, Qiao Lainan was in the restroom, calling Lan Yuyi.

“Miss Lan, hello. I’m Qiao Yin’s cousin, Qiao Lainan. We just met at noon, do you remember me?”

Lan Yuyi responded with her usual gentle tone that revealed no hint of her mood, “I remember, Miss Qiao Lainan, what can I do for you?”

Hearing her even gentler voice, Qiao Lainan’s eyes flashed with jealousy and mockery, but her voice became even softer, as if she’s challenging Lan Yuyi, “Miss Lan, I’m here to help you..”
