Chapter 694 - Can You Take Me Away? (2/2)

It was only the first time they met and she found it rude to ask for such a valuable piece of work. But she really liked it and Qin painted it for her. She didn’t want anyone else to get it.

Qin Haodong said, “I painted this for you and it belongs to you. But you have to wait for a moment.”

Then he found a pen and wrote several words at the corner of the scroll, “Such a beautiful smile takes away my breath!”

The words were strong and flowing, adding more character to the picture.

Wei Yanran was frozen on the spot and her heart was beating violently, as if it could jump out of her throat at any time.

What did he mean? Was he confessing to her? Did he like her?

Wei Yanran hesitated for a while and thought that she was about to be engaged to a man she didn’t love. So she made up her mind and whispered as Qin Haodong handed over the drawing scroll, “Can you take me away?”

“What?”

Qin Haodong was astonished and stood there in great astonishment. He didn’t get her meaning at first, “What does she mean? Is this seemingly gentle and moving girl so open-minded? Why does she want to elope with him even though it was the first time they met?”

Seeing Qin Haodong’s surprised expression, Wei Yanran blushed with shame. She lowered her head and her chin almost touched her chest.

Hua Mingrui immediately explained on behalf of her best friend, “Well, Yanran’s family arranged a marriage for her today.

“The man is called Qin Haodong, a son of an aristocratic family in the capital. But Yanran doesn’t like him and she has already fallen in love with you. So she wants you to take her away.”

Hearing her explanation, Qin Haodong was so shocked that he did not even know what to say. Why was this girl asking him to take her away to avoid the marriage with him? That was too much!

Seeing Qin Haodong’s shocked expression, Hua Mingrui thought that he was wondering why Wei Yanran liked him. She then explained, “In fact, that man is also great. He has reached the ninth-level of the Supreme Power Realm at a young age.”

“But Yanran doesn’t like him. She prefers talented young people. I told her about what happened to you in the Japan Conference and she fell in love with you from that moment on. Just now, she asked to go to Jiangnan to find you at the tea party.”

Ye Qing, who was next to him, was surprised at first and then she giggled after getting the key point.

She laughed because Wei Yanran was going to elope with the person she was engaged to. But Wei Yanran knew nothing about this and she thought that Ye Qing was laughing at her. She became even more shy and nearly wanted to run away and hide somewhere.

Noticing Wei Yanran’s embarrassment, Ye Qing hurriedly said, “You guys keep talking. I have something to deal with.”

After that, she went out and closed the door.

Wei Yanran felt a little better after she left. She raised her head and glanced at Qin Haodong discreetly, trying to see how her lover was looking at her.

Qin Haodong also found it interesting after he calmed down. He didn’t tell her the truth yet, instead, he gave her a smile and said, “Well, I fell in love with Miss Wei at first sight too. I’ll take you away later.”

“That’s great!” Hua Mingrui was also happy for her best friend, but she also felt upset. Yanran had found her lover, but what about her?

Wei Yanran lowered her head and said shyly, “We have to hurry up, otherwise you’ll be in danger if my family finds out.”

Qin Haodong smiled and said, “It doesn’t matter. Your family will be very happy to see me.”

Wei Yanran said, “No! You’re excellent, but my grandfather has already arranged a marriage for me…”

While they were talking, Qin Haodong’s cell phone rang. It was from Lin Momo. He apologized to Wei Yanran and said, “Sorry, I have to take the call first.”

He left with his mobile phone and pressed the answer button, “Momo, how’s everything going now? When will you come to the capital? I miss you and Tang Tang.”

“We miss you too,” Lin Momo said, “The progress is very smooth. I’ll go to the capital when everything is settled here. But we don’t have adequate funds here.”

“Oh!” Qin Haodong asked Ye Qing to buy the Tang Sect club, which cost him three billion yuan in total. He then made some changes and added some items. He had spent almost four billion yuan, which was almost all that he and Lin Momo had.

“How much do you need in total?”

“Two billion yuan. With this money, I can prepare everything for the Tangmen Traditional Chinese Medicine Company and Lin’s Group. Then I’ll rush to the capital.”

“Don’t worry. I’ll transfer the money to you in a few days.”

Qin Haodong hung up, but he did not go back in immediately. He was thinking how to get two billion yuan.

If he asked Chu Xuanyue for help, she would definitely solve his problem and may even give him twice the amount of money. But he did not want to do this. His mother had worked hard for so many years, so he couldn’t ask for money as soon as they were reunited.

But two billion yuan was not a small sum of money. How could he get it as soon as possible?

Suddenly, an idea came to his mind. After the meeting, he was thinking how to improve the strength of the Seven Great Families secretly. Now he finally had a way.

If he took out his pills for auction, he could help the martial artists of the Seven Great Families to improve their cultivation and he could also make a big fortune. This was definitely a good idea to achieve two goals at the same time.
