Chapter 200: Sell It and That’s Your Pocket Money
“Yes, of course! Master Lu, we, the Qi family, are businessmen. Honesty is the foundation of our empire.”
Qi Xiang couldn’t help but shudder as Lu Xingzhi stared at him. He had never met anyone as terrifying as Lu Xingzhi, whose glare alone was like a large boulder crushing him to the point that he couldn’t move.
The Qi family did not dare execute any harmless pranks anymore. All he had done was have an evil thought about Jiang Yao plus a failed attempt at flirting with her, and just for that, the bloody price was a freaking hospital. If the Qi family dared to do anything to irritate the renowned Hades Lu again, he was worried that their business empire and family would be destroyed beyond repair.
However, Qi Xiang felt a little bitter about Lu Xingzhi’s remarks. Lu Xingzhi had hinted that there should be no personnel changes after Jiang Yao got hold of the equity of the hospital. Even if there were doctors or staff who wanted to resign, whether or not their reasons were related to the new chairman, the Qi family would have to appease them to stay.
Lu Xingzhi spared Qi Xiang’s life for the Huang family’s sake. Qi Xiang also knew that Lu Xingzhi abhorred him for his vile desire at the man’s wife—it was absolutely unacceptable for any man, hence, he didn’t intend to overstay his welcome. After signing the agreement, Qi Xiang quickly left with his lawyer.
“It feels like a dream. In just the blink of an eye, I’ve become a rich person who owns a hospital,” Jiang Yao giggled chicly while waving the agreement in her hand.
“A rich person?” Lu Xingzhi squinted at Jiang Yao in slight mockery. “You, as my woman, cannot have such a low standard. It’s just a hospital, it’s not even close to calling yourself a rich person.”

Jiang Yao wasn’t sure about the exact number of businesses in Lu Xingzhi’s hands, however, one thing was for sure—his money was abundant. Thus, although Lu Xingzhi was quite obviously mocking her with a hint of contempt, she was convinced that he was not blowing his own horn. In his eyes, the value of the hospital was insignificant.
“From now on, the development of the hospital will be in your hands. If you have any ideas, just do anything you like with it. If you’re lazy, either have someone to assist you with the management or just sell it. The money can be used as your pocket money.”
Lu Xingzhi didn’t expect Jiang Yao to earn money. He was good at generating a lucrative income himself, he wouldn’t let his wife be short of money.
“Who would I sell it to?” Jiang Yao shook her head. “No, I want to keep it for myself, I don’t want to sell it.”
“You could sell it back to the Qi family. The hospital is theirs, to begin with. I’m sure they would be more than happy to buy it back.” After pondering over the idea, Lu Xingzhi curled his lips into a mischievous smirk, as if finding out that his idea was sound. “Think about it, how fun would it be if we let them spend a lot of money to buy back something that was originally theirs? If you want to sell it, set a fixed price. I bet they wouldn’t have the guts to negotiate with you.”
“No, I don’t want to sell it.” Jiang Yao shook her head again. Although Lu Xingzhi’s idea was great to vent her frustration, why did she need so much money? The hospital was a more exciting asset for her.

“Alright, just keep it if you don’t want to sell it. If you find that the hospital management is troublesome and it affects your studies, let me know, I’ll arrange for some people to help you manage it.” Lu Xingzhi was just suggesting his idea in amusement. If his darling wife didn’t want to sell, he wouldn’t force her.
But…
“Since you want to keep it, I need your help,” Lu Xingzhi said, “Hire two people to work in the hospital.”
“Chen Zhibin?” That was the first thing that appeared in Jiang Yao’s mind. Chen Zhibin had a high school diploma, which in this era, was neither low nor high. “What job do you want to assign to him?”

The Demon’s Bride
Elise had about to change into the dress that was lying on the corner of her bed when she heard a knock lightly calling from her door. Curious, she turned the door knob only to have a tall man towering in front of her.«Master Ian!» She called.Ian smiled with the usual mischievous smirk that he always used. His crimson eyes trailing a little over her room and spotted the black dress over her bed and shifted his eyes over to the woman in front of him. He stepped forward and spoke. «Where did you acquire that dress?»«Mr. Harland gave it to me.» Elise replied and strained her neck to see Ian’s brows knitted in its elegance.«Do you know why a man would love to give a woman a dress?» He gave the riddle that she always had to think twice before replying. But this time, she found no answer and instead shook her head. «I don’t know.»His grin grew bewitching as though something had stirred deep inside the scarlet eyes that he had. He slowly slid his hand over the collar of her dress, sending a cold shiver that startled her for a moment due to its freezing temperature. After unbuttoning the first two buttons on her collar, he tilted his head down, whispering to her ears. «Because they want to be the one to undress the cloth.»He paused and kissed her neck, turning the pale skin to red before retracting his move to fix his eyes on her and leisurely replied. «Unfortunately, you can’t wear the dress over there with this.» He chuckled and passed a box over to her hand. «And the fortunate news is I prepared a dress for you.»
