My whirlwind marriage partner is a wealthy CEO

Chapter 78 This news is worth 1

Just then, Wan Qingsha strode into the restaurant.

His sharp suit accentuated his tall and straight figure, and his leather shoes made a crisp sound as he walked on the gleaming floor.

His eyes were sharp as he scanned the surroundings, as if searching for Aimee.

When Tan Xiaoxuan saw him, she scoffed inwardly and thought to herself, "Another pretentious guy."

But her face instantly lit up with a warm smile as she stood up to greet him, saying in a sweet voice, "Oh, isn't this Young Master Wan? What brings you here? It's truly an honor to have you here today."

As she spoke, she deliberately tossed her hair exaggeratedly.

While Wan Qingsha was observing her, Tan Xiaoxuan secretly gave Zheng Xiaokun a wink.

The latter understood immediately and quietly took a few steps back.

Tan Xiaoxuan then smeared her makeup on her face, making a mess of her carefully applied makeup. Her eyeliner smudged and her lipstick was smeared on her cheeks, making her look like a "female ghost".

She secretly thought to herself: I can't let Wan Qingsha take a liking to me.

We need to distract him and, by the way, use this meeting to find fault with those unscrupulous screenwriters under the Wan family who write terrible scripts and smear her.

When Wan Qingsha saw Tan Xiaoxuan's appearance, her brows furrowed involuntarily.

A flicker of disgust crossed his mind: "How can this girl be so slovenly? How could Jack Tan be attracted to a woman like this? Does he have some kind of fetish?"

He had initially harbored some intention to make friends with them, but he immediately abandoned that idea.

Tan Xiaoxuan took in his reaction and chuckled to herself, "Hmph, I knew you'd fall for it."

But he still pretended to be ingratiating: "Young Master Wan, please don't mind, I was in a hurry to leave today and didn't have time to pack. How about I order you a few more good dishes?"

Wan Qingsha looked Tan Xiaoxuan up and down with a face full of disdain.

Her first words were: "You're Aimee?"

The tone was as if the person standing in front of him wasn't a person, but some insignificant trinket.

"Look at you, you look like a clown."

As he spoke, he gently shook his head, his eyes filled with disdain.

He simply couldn't understand how Jack Tan, who was rumored to be wealthy and discerning, could be involved in a scandal with a woman like this.

He couldn't help but scoff at his own fondness for Jack Tan: "This aesthetic... tsk, it's really unique."

When his gaze swept over Tan Xiaoxuan's face, which was covered in smears, he curled his lip, making no attempt to hide his disdain.

Tan Xiaoxuan, however, seemed not to hear his sarcasm.

Hands on hips, chin raised.

Not only was she not embarrassed at all, but she deliberately showed off her makeup in an even more exaggerated way.

He even provocatively approached Wan Qingsha, blinked his eyes, and asked loudly, "Oh, Young Master Wan, you don't like my makeup?"

But I think it's quite unique. If you like it, how about we take a picture together, so we can have a keepsake?

Wan Qingsha took a step back, frowning as she avoided the woman's approaching face.

He then snorted coldly, "Stop fooling around. I don't want to be on the entertainment headlines. I've invited you here today for serious business."

After saying that, he stared sharply at Tan Xiaoxuan and directly stated his purpose.

"I heard you're close to Jack Tan. There are some things I'd like to ask you. If you cooperate, you'll get plenty of benefits."

Tan Xiaoxuan, however, seemed not to have heard the rest of his sentence.

With a quick glance, he pointed to the dishes already ordered on the table and said with a grin, "Young Master Wan, look, all the dishes are on the table. I'm starving right now. Can we chat after we finish eating?"

The implication was that they wanted to use the meal as a way to stall for time and accumulate more leverage in their negotiations with Wan Qingsha.

Wan Qingsha was unwilling to grant her wish.

With his arms crossed and a half-smile on his face, he looked at Tan Xiaoxuan and said, "Tell me the news first, then we'll eat. It won't take up much of your time."

Don't worry, this meal is on me.

He thought to himself, it's just a matter of coaxing this little girl, a few words, no need to take it so seriously.

Tan Xiaoxuan smiled slyly and waved the menu in her hand.

She deliberately flaunted her "unique" makeup in front of Wan Qingsha.

He said sarcastically, "Young Master Wan, take a good look. My makeup is a bit ugly, but the dishes I ordered aren't expensive. You can pay the bill, it's a piece of cake. However, if you want to get information from me, you'll have to spend some real money."

After saying that, he held up a finger and waved it, "This number, not a penny less."

Wan Qingsha raised an eyebrow, subconsciously thinking it was 100,000, and was about to nod.

Wan Lao Jiu, who had been silent all along, couldn't hold back any longer. He stepped forward, glared at Tan Xiaoxuan, and said loudly, "Little girl, don't try to make an exorbitant demand. You're asking for 100,000 just because of a few words. That's not a fair deal."

Tan Xiaoxuan looked at Wan Qingsha with a mocking expression, arms crossed, head tilted, eyes full of provocation: "Oh, Young Master Wan, I didn't say 100,000. This news is worth at least a million."

Wan Laodao roared, "Little girl, one million? Are you trying to rob me?"

Tan Xiaoxuan looked at Wan Qingsha and laughed, "So, who's in charge here, you or this gentleman? My information is definitely worth the price. If you're not willing to part with it, then this deal is off."

Wan Qingsha raised her hand to stop Wan Laojiu from speaking again.

His gaze was deep and unfathomable as he secretly began to plot.

If the cooperation with Sunshine Group goes through, the benefits will be far more than one million.

In comparison, the money was well spent.

Moreover, if we miss this opportunity, it will be difficult to find out about Jack Tan again in the future.

Thinking of this, he gritted his teeth, looked up at Tan Xiaoxuan, and said in a deep voice, "Fine, one million it is, I accept it."

As he spoke, he waved behind him, signaling his assistant to prepare the checks.

He stared at Tan Xiaoxuan, his eyes filled with warning, "But let me make this clear first, you better not try anything funny. If the information is false, you'll be in big trouble."

Tan Xiaoxuan's lips curled into a smug smile. She clapped her hands, her face full of confidence: "Young Master Wan, rest assured, I, Tan Xiaoxuan, always keep my word. This news will definitely satisfy you. I knew you had good judgment. This little bit of money is nothing compared to the big deal that's about to be in our hands, right?"

She knew perfectly well that the information she possessed was the key to opening the door to cooperation for Wan Qingsha, priceless, and she had no doubt that he would agree.

Wan Qingsha snorted coldly and didn't reply, just quietly waiting for her assistant to write the check.

The restaurant was so quiet that only the sound of pen nibs scratching on checks could be heard.

After the check was written, Wan Qingsha handed it to Tan Xiaoxuan.

Tan Xiaoxuan smiled smugly and flicked the check lightly with her fingers.

After confirming that everything was correct, I neatly put it into my bag.

Looking up at Wan Qingsha, who was sitting opposite him with an impatient expression, he cleared his throat, ready to begin this million-dollar information exchange.

Wan Qingsha crossed her arms, her brows furrowed, and impatiently tapped her feet on the ground.

He snorted coldly: "You'd better hurry up and get the job done after you've taken the money. I don't have time to waste here with you."

His gaze seemed to want to bore two holes through Tan Xiaoxuan, showing extreme dissatisfaction with her dawdling.
