Chapter 39 Nothing that Bai Weiwei Couldn’t Have

Inside a luxuriously furnished VIP private room of a bar, a man in a suit and leather shoes hang up the phone and flung it onto the bar counter. He raised his hand to rub the creased area between his brows, and his expression was dark and difficult to read.

It was obvious how much he hated the woman he just spoke to over the phone.

"Brother Lingcheng, I want to go for tonight's banquet too. Why don't you bring me?"

Bai Weiwei saw that Li Lingcheng had put down the phone, so she approached him eagerly and started whining in a coquettish voice.

Li Lingcheng put one arm around Bai Weiwei and swirled his wine glass with his other hand. "No, I can't."

Qin Group had outbid him for the land on Third Avenue in the west that his grandfather had wanted, which made his grandfather very disappointed in him.

This was something he didn't expect at all.

He had already prepared the piece of land in the east as a trap, and both Mr. Qin and his son had taken an interest in it. But to his surprise, on the day of the auction, Qin Group changed their minds at the last minute and took Third Avenue instead.

Later, he got someone to investigate what happened and found out that Qin Shi was actually scheduled to meet the mayor to use his connections to get that piece of land in the east. But in the end, Qin Nuan went home for dinner that night and said that she didn't like that piece of land. So Qin Shi just went along with that and threw away the bidding proposal that his company had taken so long to prepare.

Since this matter was related to Qin Nuan, his grandfather ordered him to bring Qin Nuan to see him tonight after discovering this.

His grandfather was furious right now, so he didn't dare to do anything rash. So no matter how much Bai Weiwei whined at him, Li Lingcheng refused to give in.

Bai Weiwei was a little upset, so she said in a very gentle voice, "Brother Lingcheng, won't you bring me along? I promise not to disturb you or Miss Qin. I don't have any other motives for going. I want to be able to see you for a longer time. I want to stand on the same floor as you, even if I'm not your partner for the night."

"Weiwei, I really can't agree to tonight." Li Lingcheng pressed the area between his brows irritatedly.

Bai Weiwei didn't dare to continue when she saw his reaction. She pretended to be understanding and let go of Li Lingcheng's arm as she said in a low voice, "Brother Lingcheng, I get it. I won't make things difficult for you."

"I saw you post a photo on your social media, and you said you liked the necklace in the photo. Since you want it, go ahead and buy it."

Li Lingcheng put a black card in front of Bai Weiwei to serve as compensation.

Bai Weiwei quickly shook her head and said determinedly, "Brother Lingcheng, even though I like that necklace very much, I can't take money from you."

Li Lingcheng saw that Bai Weiwei didn't take the card, so he stuffed the card into her hands, bent over, and kissed her forehead. "You are my woman, so there's nothing in this world that you can't have."

With that, he got up and left the room.

There wasn't much time before the banquet would start, so he couldn't dilly dally outside anymore.

Bai Weiwei watched as Li Lingcheng's back view disappeared out of the door and clutched onto that black card tightly.

That's right. There was nothing in this world that she, Bai Weiwei, couldn't have.

She was going to have Li Lingcheng in his entirety sooner or later.

Qin Nuan put on her makeup and didn't wait long before the doorbell rang. An urgent delivery within the city had arrived with three packages.

Qin Nuan tore open the packages. The first one was a gift box that contained a pink long dress with a poufy chiffon skirt. Mr. Qin's name was written on it.

The second gift box contained a long pale gray and white gradient dress, and Mrs. Qin's name was on this one.

The last gift box contained a sweet yellow princess-style long dress, and this box had Qin Shi's name on it.

Qin Shi told their parents about how she didn't have an evening gown to wear from the looks of it. The three of them had differing opinions, so they decided to send her one each.

After Qin Nuan received the clothes, she quickly sent a message into the family group chat. She sent a "Love you guys!" and a bunch of small heart emojis.

Qin Shi was the first one to start typing.

[Time]: Little sister, you got the dress, right? Your brother has sent you the same one as Belle's in Beauty and the Beast, so quickly get changed, my little princess.

[Lifetime of Peace]: My little Nuannuan, wear the gown that your Daddy picked for you. It's a pink poufy dress, and the skirt is reaaaaaally huge. I guarantee that you will be the prettiest girl at the party.
