Qiao Lian noticed the change in Lu Nanze’s expression and, trying to contain her laughter, turned back to glance at Shen Liangchuan. The latter was expressionless, as usual, acting as if he had not noticed the change in the other man.

Likewise, what he was wearing today was just whatever he had happened to lay his hands on. He remained nonchalant.

Qiao Lian lowered her head immediately. This man was simply two-faced and downright evil.

They walked up to Lu Nanze.

Lu Nanze chortled and looked intently at the suit Shen Liangchuan was wearing. He said disdainfully, “The old saying is true indeed: you can’t make a silk purse out of a sow’s ear.”

He was implicitly saying that Shen Liangchuan wasn’t good-looking, so he had to rely on a good suit to make him look outstanding.

Shen Liangchuan nodded in agreement and added, “So you should really get yourself a few more nice suits.”

Qiao Lian burst out in uncontrollable laughter again, before quickly looking away.

Unfazed, Lu Nanze smiled and looked at them. He said, “But it’s true that you should dress as well as possible now, because I’m afraid that soon you might even have to sell the last shirt you have.”

Shen Liangchuan raised an eyebrow and retorted, “You won’t have to worry about that.”

The other man snorted coldly and looked at Qiao Lian. The look in his devilish eyes was full of arrogance. “I thought that wouldn’t have slept last night. After all, you haven’t even sold a single unit.”

At this point, a waiter came up to serve their breakfast.

Qiao Lian couldn’t help but add, “That’s because they’re not on sale yet!”

“Huh, do you really think anyone would buy, even if you did?”

Qiao Lian kept silent.

Raising an eyebrow, Shen Liangchuan looked at the time and spoke to the waiter, “Could you turn on the television and switch to the news channel.”

The waiter did as he was told.

Lu Nanze laughed coldly and remarked, “Mr. Shen is in the mood to watch the news? You should rather be worrying about your building project.”

After these words, both Qiao Lian and Shen Liangchuan turned to focus on the television screen, totally ignoring the other man.

Lu Nanze could only follow suit and watch the news with them.

The program started with reports of special news and Lu Nanze paid no attention to those.

However after a short time, picking up some words from a certain news report, he looked up at once and his pupils shrank.

As a businessman, he was sensitive to such news.

There was a new policy being pushed out.

All the large and medium cities were shocked at this piece of news.

All developers would be making in hefty profits soon!

Lu Nanze frowned and suddenly turned towards Shen Liangchuan. “You stopped the presales of the property yesterday on purpose?”

Shen Liangchuan took a bite of his toast and put down his fork and knife. He picked up his napkin, dabbed at his mouth elegantly and looked up, saying, “That’s right.”

Then he continued, “I have you to thank for the help in manipulating the crowd to return their units. Now we have a greater profit margin.”

Lu Nanze was flabbergasted.

That’s right, that group had returned their units. If they wanted to buy it back, it wouldn’t be at that same price.

But still, Lu Nanze stubbornly said, “Even if this were the case, so what? If the units don’t sell, you will still have to keep them.”

When he said this, Shen Liangchuan glanced at him with a strange expression.

That mocking look made Lu Nanze realize his remark was a joke.

Their development project was situated in a prime location and property prices were skyrocketing. All they needed to do was to let the units go at a price that was but a fraction lower than the other properties around them, and they would surely sell.

Besides…

Shen Liangchuan stood up at this point. “We have Mr. Lu to thank for a huge saving in advertising costs.”

Slandering Yuxiu Gardens was also, in a way, giving the development project publicity.

After he had said these words, Song Cheng came up to them. “Brother Shen, everything is settled!”
