CHAPTER 439: CHAPTER 439: CHRISTMAS "SURPRISE" (PART 19)
Now looking at her bewildered expression, Sheng Jianan didn’t explain much and reached out to ruffle Tang Yanqi’s hair, "It’s nothing, another day, I’ll teach you."
Sheng Jianan left the apartment and headed directly to the place he agreed upon with Zhou Chengze. They originally planned to play golf, but the winter was too cold this year, with a biting wind outside, making outdoor sports unsuitable.
So they decisively switched to billiards. As Sheng Jianan was driving halfway, his phone rang. There was an urgent matter requiring his attention at the company.
He turned the steering wheel towards Shengshi.
Assistant Qiao delivered the documents to Sheng Jianan. He quickly skimmed through them, signed on the last page, and had a video call with the United States for a while. After handling the work, he recalled the previous matter and asked, "Didn’t you arrange a coach for the Young Madam?"
Assistant Qiao, who never made mistakes at work, stood still, lost in thought as if she hadn’t heard Sheng Jianan’s words.
It wasn’t until Sheng Jianan waved his hand in front of her eyes that Assistant Qiao snapped back to reality, "President, what... what did you say?"
Sheng Jianan frowned, "Assistant Qiao, have you lost your soul?"
Assistant Qiao hesitated as she looked at Sheng Jianan. She had just received news but wasn’t sure if she should report it.
Sheng Jianan narrowed his eyes, seeing through everything, "What’s going on?"
Assistant Qiao bit her lip. As Sheng Jianan’s assistant, it was her duty and obligation to report everything to her boss.
"President, I just got the news that the Young Madam sold one of her villas."
Just as Assistant Qiao expected, as soon as she finished speaking, Sheng Jianan’s eyebrows knitted into a frown.
Tang Yanqi’s villa?
When the Sheng Family and the Tang Family united, he never cared about it, so he didn’t involve himself much. However, he did know that his grandfather didn’t treat Tang Yanqi poorly. He gave the Tang Family many benefits and also gave her a substantial dowry, including valuable jewelry and real estate deeds.
Among them was a villa.
So now, Tang Yanqi has sold that villa?
Why would she suddenly sell the villa? Is she short of money? Didn’t he already give her a card? If she needed money, wouldn’t she withdraw from it?
Hadn’t he told her that the card had no limit?
Since Tang Yanqi entered the Sheng Family, Sheng Jianan had never seen her touch that dowry money. Given her character, Sheng Jianan didn’t believe Tang Yanqi would easily use that money, but she did, and it was a villa at that.
"When did this happen?"
"This month, according to the real estate agent, the Young Madam asked for not the highest price, just the fastest sale."
"How much was it sold for?"
"Fifty million."
Fifty million!
This amount was nothing to Sheng Jianan, but for anyone else, it was a vast fortune. What did she need such a large amount of money for?
Besides, if she needed such a large sum, why didn’t she come to him? Why keep it a secret?
Without another word, Sheng Jianan grabbed his phone and called Tang Yanqi, but there was no answer.
"Check for me, where the Young Madam is right now."
"Yes."
Sheng Jianan squinted his eyes, a cold light in their depths. He didn’t mind Tang Yanqi selling the house, after all, it was hers to do with as she pleased. What concerned him was the reason for selling it. If she needed money, why didn’t she come to him?
Moreover, fifty million, what could she possibly need fifty million for, and urgently at that?
