Chapter 509 The Young Lady Knocking on the Door in the Middle of the Night
Cao Erdan quickly helped Liu Jichang up and said with a smile:
"Brother Liu, please speak freely. There's no need for such a grand gesture!"
Liu Jichang solemnly stated:
"Master Cao, I haven't left the Ouyang family these past few days to repay President Kang for his kindness. Now that President Kang is gone, I am willing to follow you, Master Cao, and serve you faithfully to repay your two life-saving graces!"
Liu Jichang was a passionate man who knew how to repay kindness, so he decided to follow Cao Erdan.
Cao Erdan also admired this master of the Divine Realm.
So he nodded in agreement.
Ouyang Yuwei was originally reluctant to see Liu Jichang leave.
But seeing his resolute demeanor, I didn't try to persuade him to stay.
Back then, Ouyang Kang had done Liu Jichang a favor, and Liu Jichang stayed at Ouyang Kang's house to repay the favor, even lowering his status to become a bodyguard.
Otherwise, given his status as a master of the Divine Realm, he would be more than capable of establishing his own sect.
Now that they're leaving, the young lady feels she has no right to keep them here to continue guarding the house.
The reason why Liu Jichang followed Cao Erdan was twofold: firstly, he wanted to repay a debt of gratitude, and secondly, he admired and worshipped Cao Erdan, regarding him as a good teacher and helpful friend.
After things were settled, everyone took their seats and drank. The four of them had a lively and engaging conversation.
They drank until midnight before finally parting ways.
Cao Erdan returned to his room.
I sat on the bed and continued my pre-sleep exercises.
This is a daily must-do.
If you have girls, train with them; if you don't have girls, train with dragon energy.
After a week, I felt refreshed and full of energy.
How wonderful it would be if a little butterfly, a steamed bun, or a swallow appeared at this moment.
Thinking of Li Yuzi, who had risked her life with her during the day, he was also moved.
Actually... it would be fine if she came.
I have a lot to do during the day, so this idea wasn't strong, and I didn't specifically try to date any minor celebrities.
However, Cao Erdan could tell that as long as he seduce her, she would definitely open her arms wide.
But it's almost midnight now, and I can't just call someone and say I can't sleep, so I'll train you for a while.
I had no choice but to take a shower and go to bed by myself.
But I still couldn't fall asleep, tossing and turning.
Just then, someone knocked on the door.
Could it be Li Yuzi?
If so, I will absolutely not be a saint anymore; I must win her over.
I came to open the door, and was slightly disappointed.
The woman at the entrance wasn't a glamorous young starlet, but a frail, delicate young lady.
It was Miss Ouyang Yuwei, wearing a loose dress that clung to her body in the wind, making her look even more delicate.
The night is long and I can't sleep. I thought I was the only one who couldn't sleep. It turns out that you can't sleep either, Miss Yuwei.
Cao Erdan hurriedly asked, "Is there something you need, Miss Yuwei?"
Miss Yuwei smiled gently, her eyes filled with tenderness, and asked, "May I come in?"
"of course."
Cao Erdan quickly stepped aside to let Ouyang Yuwei in.
Once inside, she glanced back at Cao Erdan, bit her lip, and seemed about to say something, but remained silent, her face flushed with shyness.
Cao Erdan had forbidden her from drinking alcohol during the meal, but she still drank some red wine, and her face was flushed.
Cao Erdan asked again, "Miss Yuwei, is there something you need?"
"It's nothing, I just wanted to chat with you for a while! Let's sit down."
As she spoke, she sat down on the sofa and patted the spot next to her, clearly indicating that she wanted Cao Erdan to sit in front of her.
Cao Erdan thought to himself, "We've been chatting at the dinner table for hours, and I can tell your back is aching from sitting so long. Haven't you had enough yet?"
However, since the beautiful woman was so enthusiastic about chatting with him, he couldn't refuse.
He sat down in front of Ouyang Yuwei.
Ouyang Yuwei took a deep breath, as if she had mustered a great deal of courage.
Suddenly, he raised his big, fluffy eyes and looked at Cao Erdan with his clear, bright pupils.
Cao Erdan really liked this shy and bashful demeanor.
Her posture, typical of a classical beauty, immediately reminded Cao Erdan of Lin Daiyu.
It's a kind of morbid beauty, so delicate and pitiful!
Ouyang Yuwei was originally a powerful businesswoman who dominated the business world and was a decisive and efficient woman in society.
However, she has lost a lot of weight due to illness during this period, and her spirits have also become quite low. Now, sitting here, she looks like a delicate young lady.
She mustered her courage and reached out to take Cao Erdan's hand:
"Dr. Cao, I came here because I wanted to... thank you!"
Cao Erdan laughed: "Miss Yuwei, why are you being so polite? I spent 1 billion to buy your red coral, and you've already given me the rest of the money. No need to thank me anymore, or I'll feel embarrassed to take your money!"
This made Ouyang Yuwei laugh as well.
Holding Cao Erdan's hands, they sighed, "Dr. Cao, I know that with your skills, you don't lack money at all. Your willingness to do everything you can to save me is a great kindness to me!"
These words made Cao Erdan feel quite pleased.
Look at the young lady's character; she's grateful and kind-hearted!
Cao Erdan was puzzled. Ouyang Yuwei and Ouyang Junnan were both children raised in wealthy families, so why was there such a big difference in their character?
Cao Erdan remained silent, letting the two women stroke his fingers.
"Dr. Cao, I've been away from the business world for a while now, and I'm not sure if I can still shoulder the responsibility of the family business. I'm a little guilty, so... I have a favor to ask, may I?"
Cao Erdan could guess the gist of it just by looking at her playing with her hands.
However, I still asked, "What is it? Just tell me."
"Could you...stay? And manage the Ouyang Enterprise with me?"
Even a fool could understand what he was saying and what he was saying.
They're treating Cao Erdan like a son-in-law who'll live with the family!
The richest family in Hong Kong and mainland China, with a fortune of trillions!
A beautiful young lady wants to marry you into her family—that's something many men dream of!
However, Cao Erdan had his own principles.
This is an innate arrogance, not something that can be faked.
He shook his head again: "Thank you for your kind offer, Miss Yuwei, but I have my own matters to attend to and cannot accept your offer!"
Ouyang Yuwei didn't expect Cao Erdan to reject her so quickly and so firmly.
It takes a lot of determination and courage for a heiress from a top-tier wealthy family to so actively ask a man to stay by her side.
Being rejected is such a humiliating thing!
Ouyang Yuwei stared at Cao Erdan: "If you insist on leaving, is there something important you need to do back home?"
"I have to go back and help the people in my village make money."
"..."
Ouyang Yuwei almost slid off the sofa, completely stunned by Cao Erdan's reasoning.
Will his trillion-dollar fortune not attract him? Will he go back to the village to farm?
However, she also understood that Cao Erdan was just making an excuse not to stay.
After experiencing a sudden change in her family, Ouyang Yuwei also understands the current social unrest in Hong Kong and mainland China, so she is really unsure of herself. If Cao Erdan, a strong man, stays to help her, he would be worthy of her in terms of career and other aspects.
Unfortunately, she saw a resolute rejection in Cao Erdan's eyes.
Suddenly her eyes welled up with tears, and she buried her face in Cao Erdan's arms, crying!
Cao Erdan fears neither heaven nor earth, except for the tears of the beautiful women around him.
He quickly comforted her, "Don't cry, Yuwei. Even though I'm not staying, we're still friends. I'll come back to see you anytime!"
Ouyang Yuwei wiped her tears on Cao Erdan's chest, then suddenly raised her head and said:
"Fine, you can leave, but you have to stay with me tonight!"
As she spoke, she pursed her cherry lips and kissed Cao Erdan's mouth.
