Chapter 44 Night in Shanghai

With the pickup from the driver sent by Lin Dongqiang, Yang Fan came to Lin Dongqiang's villa where he held a private banquet. Although it was a private banquet, Lin Dongqiang, as the richest man in Shanghai and the head of the Lin family, is an important figure in both political and business circles. Who dares not to buy face? Therefore, many celebrities in the banquet were invited to come.

Yang Fan walked into the villa and saw Lin Jiani wearing a sleeveless red dress walking towards her. Her face with light makeup was even more beautiful.

"You are very beautiful today!" Yang Fan praised.

"What do you mean is that I wasn't beautiful in the past?" Although Lin Jiani was very happy when she heard Yang Fan's praise. But she also wanted to take the opportunity to make things difficult for Yang Fan. Seeing that Yang Fan was defeated, it has become a hobby for Lin Jiani.

Yang Fan shut up because he knew that Lin Jiani was deliberately looking for trouble. The best way for a man to face a woman who deliberately looking for trouble is to remain silent.

Seeing that she had succeeded, Lin Jiani let Yang Fan go and said, "It's all the best here. Let's get to know you. It may be of some help to you in the future. I also want to receive guests for my father. I won't be with you anymore."

Lin Jiani walked past Yang Fan, deliberately pointed her mouth at Yang Fan's ear, and whispered: "You are so cute when you are defeated." After that, she regained her elegant princess image and walked towards the crowd.

Yang Fan shook his head, sometimes there was no way to deal with Lin Jiani. Just as Yang Fan was sillying in his mind that a woman who had more or less ambiguous relationship with him, a voice came.

"Brother Yang, so blessed! The eldest daughter of the Lin family, who has always been famous for icebergs, treats Brother Yang differently!"

Yang Fan turned around and saw a familiar face - Xiao Jianfei.

"So it's Brother Xiao!" Yang Fan was somewhat surprised by Xiao Jianfei's appearance.

"Brother Yang, I'm sorry. I forgot to give you a business card that day." Xiao Jianfei said and handed you a gilded business card to Yang Fan.

The business card reads "Mr. Xiao Jianfei, Director and President of China, Australia Simp Company". The strength of Australia Simp Company has always been the top spot in Australia, and its strength is even better than that of the Yang Group.

"Look for a long time! I forgive my brother for being stupid." Yang Fan smiled and complimented.

"Brother Yang is not a small source! Brother Yang, the vice president of the Yang Group, can you have a drink with me?"

"It's better to obey your orders than respect! Brother Xiao!"

The two of them asked the waiter for a cup of low-degree vodka.

"It's a pity that there is no Wuliangye here!" Xiao Jianfei sighed regretfully.

"What a pity!" Yang Fan said while drinking, "Does Brother Xiao have time tomorrow?"

"I'm so sorry! The company urgently asked me to go back. I'm going to go back to Australia tonight. It seems that I don't have the chance to get drunk with Brother Yang before I'll stop." Xiao Jianfei also felt very regretful.

"A real man puts his career first. I believe we will definitely have a chance in the future."

"If we are lucky enough to cooperate with Brother Yang's company in the future, we will definitely have a good drink." Xiao Jianfei raised his glass and clinked Yang Fan, and drank the wine in the glass. Yang Fan also followed him to finish it.

"Brother Yang, I still have something to do. I'm losing my companion!"

"Brother Xiao, please give me a gift!"

When Yang Fan saw Xiao Jianfei leave, he had a premonition: he would definitely meet Xiao Jianfei again in the future. As for whether he was a relationship with the enemy or a friend, it was hard to say. After all, there are only eternal interests in business, no eternal enemies or friends. The world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit.

"What are you thinking?" Lin Jiani walked over.

"I miss you!" Yang Fan blurted out. After hearing this, Lin Jiani's face was still hot even if she had good psychological quality.

Yang Fan also knew that he had made a mistake, but fortunately there was no one around him. In order to break the embarrassment, he asked seriously: "Do you know Xiao Jianfei?"

Seeing Yang Fan's serious expression, Lin Jiani also adjusted and said lightly: "I don't know much. I just know that he is a director of Simp Australia and the president of China. Although he is young, he is low-key and humble and very popular with his partners. How did you know him?"

Yang Fan briefly told Lin Jiani about the day when Xiao Jianfei picked up Feng Wanyi's mobile phone and invited Xiao Jianfei to dinner.

"So that's the case! Why don't you call me when you visit the Great Wall?" Lin Jiani asked.

"It's like a proposal to visit the Great Wall. How did I know she didn't call you?" Yang Fan said innocently.

Lin Jiani remembered that Yang Wanru called herself that day. But she refused because she wanted to deal with the business with the Mu family. But Lin Jiani didn't want Yang Fan to have a good time at all, so she lowered her face and said, "Then why didn't you invite me?"

Yang Fan knew that it was Lin Jiani who deliberately found fault, and no matter how he explained it, he would be wrong. However, seeing Lin Jiani's cold face, Yang Fan was still trying hard to think of excuses.

Maybe Yang Fan stepped on the shit and luck came. Just then, Yang Fan's savior came. Lin Jiawei came over and said to Lin Jiani: "Sister, my father called you."

"I know!" Lin Jiani originally planned to play with Yang Fan, but unexpectedly found out that Lin Jiawei came halfway. But her father asked her to come over, so she had to grit her teeth and leave.

"Brother Yang Shi, you can do it yourself!" Lin Jiawei said to Yang Fan, and followed Lin Jiani.

On the stage, Lin Jiani, wearing a red dress, walked beside the microphone.

"Dear guests, thank you for visiting the humble house in your busy schedule. Here, on behalf of my father, the Lin Group, I would like to say a happy new year to everyone! I wish you all wealth and prosperity in the new year. Now, please say a few words to everyone."

Lin Jiani walked off the stage gracefully and gave the stage to Lin Dongqiang. Amid the applause of everyone, Lin Dongqiang said a few brief words, then gave up the music and let everyone dance freely with their dance partners.

Although Yang Fan was very skilled in his kung fu, his dancing skills were never quite satisfactory. In addition, some young women and ladies with heavy makeup kept glaring at Yang Fan, which really made Yang Fan feel uncomfortable. Yang Fan simply walked out of the villa. Yang Fan originally planned to go back to the hotel, but remembered that he didn't drive when he came just now, so he had to walk along the path outside the villa, looking forward to some taxi passing by.

This area is a typical rich area, and taxis are generally not allowed to drive here. Therefore, Yang Fan walked for twenty minutes and did not see a car. Even though Yang Fan was in a great body, the howling cold wind made Yang Fan, who was only wearing a suit, feel a little chill.

At this time, a red Ferrari drove from behind and stopped in front of Yang Fan.

"Get in the car!" Lin Jiani stretched out her head out of the glass window.

Yang Fan opened the car door and sat up. The heating in the car made Yang Fan feel warm.

"Are you going back to the hotel now?" Lin Jiani asked. At this time, Lin Jiani had already changed into a down jacket.

Yang Fan looked at his watch. It was only 8:00 now, and nightlife had just begun for Shanghai people. So, he said to Lin Jiani, "Take me a walk around. My first time in Shanghai."

"What's the best night view in the city? It's the same as in Beijing and Hong Kong. Why not, I'll take you to a place."

After obtaining Yang Fan's consent, Lin Jiani started the engine and the car started running quickly.

After a while, the car stopped in an open open space. There were no buildings around this open space, which was extremely rare in Shanghai, where every inch of land was worth an inch of gold.

"I bought this land, so nothing was built." Lin Jiani seemed to see through Yang Fan's question and said lightly. As she said, Lin Jiani opened the car door and got out of the car.

"This land is not good, why did your company buy it?" Yang Fan also got out of the car.

"I mean, not our company. This land is owned by me." Lin Jiani said softly, "This land has a deep relationship with me. Do you want to hear it?"

Before Yang Fan answered, Lin Jiani said, "I remember when I was a child, my mother was still alive. Every weekend, my mother would bring me and my brother to this land to play. At that time, the land was lush with trees and flowers. The three of us would play games here. We were really happy at that time." As she said that, Lin Jiani seemed to have returned to the past, and her childhood innocence appeared on her face.

"But good times are always so short! When I was fourteen years old, my mother died of illness. My brother also changed for money. During the three years I went abroad to study, this land also changed due to development. Everything changed!" As he said that, Lin Jiani rested her head on Yang Fan's shoulders, because Yang Fan always gave her a sense of security.

“I didn’t buy this land again until three years ago.”

Yang Fan hugged Lin Jiani and sat on the ground.

"Why don't you ask me why I didn't replant it on trees, flowers, and green grass since I bought the land?"

"Even if you plant it, it will only change things." Yang Fan said lightly. He remembered his own experience.

From this conversation, Yang Fan and Lin Jiani discovered too many similarities and too many similar helplessness!

After a long time, Lin Jiani said, "Let's go back. It's very cold here, I'm afraid of the cold."

"Let's go!" Although Yang Fan only said two words, he was very moved. Lin Jiani was wearing a down jacket, how could it be cold? She was only wearing a thin suit, and it was herself that was cold!
