Until the dinner ended, Dai Jialang did not receive a call from Yu Houhong. He couldn't help but curse a few words, wondering if the photos he had shown her lacked enough deterrence.

If that child was not born by her and Zhou Jianwei, it would basically not have any effect on her. Even if Zhou Jiyao knew that she had other men before, he would probably not do anything to her. After all, Zhou Jiyao valued Yu Houhong's talent first.

However, Dai Jialang felt that his guess was certain. According to the information about Yu Houhong provided by Ji Wenlan, this child was probably Zhou Jianwei's, otherwise there would be no need for Yu Houhong to be so mysterious.

After the dinner, Zhou Jiyao asked Dai Jialang to send him home directly, perhaps because he had just negotiated a cooperation with Deng Junji and looked in a good mood.

"Jialang, when are you and Mei Xiangyue going to get married?" Zhou Jiyao asked leaning against the chair, squinting his eyes.

Dai Jialang was stunned for a moment and smiled and said, "There is no such plan yet."

Zhou Jiyao asked like an elder: "How old are you this year?"

Dai Jialang hesitated for a moment and said, "It's thirty."

Zhou Jiyao glanced at Dai Jialang and said, "I'm not married yet at thirty. Then when are you going to get married? You can afford to wait. Mei Xiangyue may not be able to wait? No one wants a woman after thirty."

Dai Jialang smiled and said, "Actually, there is no difference between us now and we are married now, we just have a piece of paper."

Zhou Jiyao said with a serious expression: "How can that be the same? Without that piece of paper, she can't be considered your wife. Can she sleep in the same bed be considered a wife?"

Dai Jialang muttered, "I don't seem to be in a hurry."

Zhou Jiyao stared at Dai Jialang and said, "Tell me the truth, are you tired of playing with her and don't want to marry her?"

Dai Jialang shook his head quickly and said, "No, we were engaged. If I don't want her, I can't explain it when I go back."

Zhou Jiyao snorted and said, "Anyway, you don't have a strong desire to marry her. You must be rich now and look down on others."

Dai Jialang said with a sad face: "How can it be?"

Zhou Jiyao hesitated for a moment and said, "However, the forced melon is not sweet. If you really don't want to marry her, there is no need to force her.

However, if you really don’t want others, you should make it clear earlier and don’t delay others. Men can afford to wait, but women can’t.”

Dai Jialang hummed, "I don't mean that."

He paused for a moment, quickly changed the topic and asked, "Chairman, do you want to cooperate with the Deng family to open an educational institution in Erdaohe?"

Zhou Jiyao nodded and said, "No, a few days ago, my sister-in-law asked me to borrow money to run a school, and she could only spend hundreds of millions of dollars at all. I am so tight now, so where can I lend her money?"

Dai Jialang said in surprise: "Didn't you just say that you invested 500 million yuan?"

Zhou Jiyao took out a cigarette and lit it, took a few sips, and said, "Do you believe I will really pay the 500 million?"

Dai Jialang said with a puzzled look: "Then who paid the money?"

Zhou Jiyao laughed treacherously and said, "Of course it was Deng Junji who came out by himself."

Dai Jialang looked confused and said in surprise: "Deng Junji comes out by himself?"

Zhou Jiyao glanced at Dai Jialang and said, "Boy, I will teach you a trick of making money by making money. You have heard it just now. In addition to 200 million yuan, Deng Junji's share capital also has a piece of land.

This land was bought in Erdaohe in his early years. It used to be a collective dormitory in the factory and three or four buildings. After these buildings were renovated, they became the school’s classroom. This is his entire shares. I barely calculated for him 350 million, plus 200 million cash, which is 550 million.

"Then are there 550 million?" Dai Jialang said in confusion.

Zhou Jiyao said patiently: "My sister-in-law invested 50 million yuan, and I have to pay the remaining 500 million yuan."

"Then where did you come from for 500 million?" Dai Jialang asked like a school-going primary school student.

Zhou Jiyao laughed dryly and said, "Of course I came from Deng Junji."

After saying that, he looked at Dai Jialang's suspicious look and then said, "These 500 million yuan comes from Deng Junji's land."

He paused and continued, "Of course I have to temporarily take out 500 million yuan. After the educational institution is established, Deng Junji's land will become the company's asset.

As the chairman of the company, my sister-in-law certainly has the power to dispose of the company's property. At that time, she can use this piece of land as a mortgage under the name of raising funds to expand the school building.

The current real estate prices in Erdaohe are completely controlled by me. If I just hype it up, the land can be sold for 2 billion yuan. At that time, my 500 million yuan will be easily returned.

Not only that, I also earned a dowry of 500 million for my daughter without spending a penny, and my wife was satisfied. You tell me, is this my dowry for Lao Deng or Lao Deng doing the dowry for me?"

After saying that, he burst into laughter with pride.

Dai Jialang was confused when he heard this, but he still understood the overall meaning. He was stunned for a while and said, "Can Deng Junji not think of this?"

Zhou Jiyao said: "Reasonably, he should be able to think of this, but he put all his vigilance on my 500 million yuan. As long as I can take out the 500 million yuan first, his vigilance will naturally be relaxed.

He is just a person who likes to take advantage of the advantages. I just use his psychology to bet. Even if he doesn't succeed, it doesn't matter. Now it seems that he has basically succeeded. As long as he uses that piece of land to invest, he will not be able to do so in the future."

Dai Jialang finally figured it out. What surprised him was not Zhou Jiyao's skills and scheming, but that he told him all this so bluntly.

You should know that this is a commercial secret. Even if you are not worried about plagiarizing it, it is not an open and upright method. How could a scheming person like Zhou Jiyao tell it? Did he really treat himself as his successor?

Seeing Dai Jialang silent, Zhou Jiyao seemed to see through his thoughts and said, "Do you think I am not open and upright?"

Dai Jialang hummed, "As sooner or later, Deng Junji will know that you have fooled him, and it will be difficult for him to deal with him again in the future."

Zhou Jiyao snorted and said, "You are just wrong. When your opponent is strangled by you, he not only has to continue dealing with you, but also has to bow down to you.

For people like Deng Junji, only if you are better than him will he surrender to you, otherwise he will not take you seriously at all.

Although I played tricks on him, he also has his sweetness. If it weren't for me, his land would never be valuable. Speaking of which, he would have to thank me."

Dai Jialang had no choice but to smile and said, "Chairman Gao Ming, if you don't say anything, I really think you want to cooperate with the Deng family."

Zhou Jiyao snorted and said, "You don't need to flatter you. The reason why this matter can be successful depends on three conditions.

First, the responsibility of this educational institution must be its own people, and second, as a fisherman, you must have enough bait. My 500 million is bait.

Third, Deng Junji is a person who likes to take advantage of the situation and must let him see enough benefits. If he is a gentleman, he may not be able to take the bait.

The last and most important point is to hide your motivation. For example, I want to make him believe that running this educational institution is not my original intention, but that a common friend needs help, and I have to do it.

In fact, he didn't dare to offend our common friend. If these factors add up, Deng Junji would have to take the bait."

Although Dai Jialang looked admiring on his face, he didn't agree with Zhou Jiyao's so-called "unique skill" of making money from nothing.

Although he himself is not a gentleman, he always feels that he is not kind to deceive his collaborators. Of course, the lesson Zhou Jiyao taught him is not without any gains. At least it has the effect of a negative textbook to avoid falling into such traps in the future.

Dai Jialang originally thought Yu Houhong had let his pigeons tonight, but he didn't expect that as soon as he sent Zhou Jiyao home, he received a call from Yu Houhong and asked him to meet him at a bar in the city at half past ten.

Damn, from that point of view, that photo is really a bit intimidating to Yu Houhong. Otherwise, with the pride of this woman, how could she have made an appointment to meet me so late?

To be honest, it is indeed a bit late for ordinary people at half past ten, but for those looking for excitement, nightlife has just begun, and the bustling area in the city center is still full of traffic.

The bar that Yu Houhong asked Dai Jialang to meet is very famous in the city, but he has never been involved in such a place.

However, he believed that this was in line with the identity of a woman like Yu Houhong. As an educated person abroad, he generally did not like teahouses, but preferred this place filled with Western cultural atmosphere.

Perhaps the expensive consumption of this bar has turned away many people who advocate nightlife. It is not as noisy as Dai Jialang imagined, but it is very quiet. Although there are many people sitting inside, no one makes a loud noise.

In the soothing background music, you can only vaguely hear the whispers. Under the hazy light, a pair of men and women were sitting in the corner whispering, and only the lights were flashing where the bar was located.

"Sir, are you alone?" Dai Jialang was looking around, and a waiter came over and asked in a low voice.

"I'll find someone." Dai Jialang had not adapted to the light inside, and could not see clearly where Yu Houhong was sitting.

At this time, another waitress came from inside and said to Dai Jialang: "Sir, you are Miss Yu's guest, please come with me."

Dai Jialang was puzzled for a while and didn't understand how the waiter recognized him. He thought Yu Houhong had seen him, so he hurriedly followed the waiter inside.

But the waiter did not stop in the hall, but took Dai Jialang to a passage inside, where there was an elevator.

"Ms. Yu is waiting for you on the fourth floor v8." After saying that, the waiter left.
