Chapter 248: Chapter 247: President Bai, why is this watch fake!?
"Mr. Bai, what's this about?" Ye Huan feigned a look of confusion, a barely noticeable smirk on his lips.
"Oh, the weather's a bit chilly, I'm just stomping my feet to keep warm."
Bai Youling casually lied.
Ye Huan had suddenly opened the door, giving him a real scare, which dampened his excitement considerably.
"And you, why did you cout?" Bai Youling asked.
"Oh, | needed to use the washroom." Ye Huan replied.
Use the washroom?
The Celestial Dragon Gang thugs were already gathered on the first floor guarding the teahouse entrance, which
was tightly locked. If this pretty boy noticed and informed Su Qingqing, it would be troublesome.
Thinking of this, Bai Youling frowned slightly and said coldly, "It's such an important business negotiation, and
you suddenly need to go to the washroom? Why didn’t you go earlier? Don’t you have any sense of time
management?"
"Mr. Bai, this is indeed my oversight, but as they say, ‘a man can’t ignore the call of nature.’ I hope you
understand." Ye Huan said with a sheepish smile.
"I don’t understand!"
Bai Youling, hands in his pockets, voiced his displeasure, "I never cooperate with crude people. You can either
hold it, or our cooperation with Tianyun International is off!"
Ye Huan couldn’t help but be amused. Bai Youling was making it too obvious that he didn’t want him to leave the
private room.
Amused inside, Ye Huan'’s expression grew a bit anxious, "Mr. Bai, why are you being so unreasonable? I just
want to use the washroom. Is it necessary to make such a big deal out of it!?"
Hearing this, Bai Youling instantly flew into a rage, shouting, "A big deal? How dare you speak tolike that?
You're just an assistant, and I'm your partner's boss. Don’t you know your place? Such bad luck!"
"Mr. Bai, | apologize for my oversight. It’s not good to use the washroom right before negotiations, but I really
can’t... can’t hold it anymore!" Ye Huan clutched his crotch, legs tightly together, pretending to be in urgent
need.

"Even if you can’t, you better hold it in!"
Bai Youling’s face twisted with anger, and he threatened, "If you dare use the washroom, Ill pin the blfor
disrupting the cooperation on you. Tianyun International will surely fire you! Is losing such a high-paying job
worth a trip to the washroom!?"
"Mr. Bai? Are you serious? | just want to use the washroom..."
"Just try it!"
Bai Youling shouted in anger.
Ye Huan, like a startled bird, shivered and then shook his head like a drum, ingratiatingly speaking, "I suddenly
don’t feel like using the washroom, Mr. Bai, please don’t reportto Tianyun International!"
"Behave yourself and don’t ruin our negotiation. Would | report you to Tianyun International?"
"Mr. Bai, you're really generous. Please, this way!" Ye Huan made a gesture of invitation.
Bai Youling gave him a cold glance and walked into the private room.
As he entered, his eyes darted around.
This kid wasted so much of my time, and over a debate on whether to allow him to use the washroom.
Moreover, he dared to accuseof making a big deal out of it?
Quite bold, isn’t he? It’s too lenient to just have Skinny Monkey deal with him...
Maybe, let this kid die of holding it in?
What a wicked sense of humor...
But... satisfying, ha!
Bai Youling smirked for a second before returning to normal and sat down across from Su Qingqing.
The private room had a Ming dynasty style, with a small square table in the middle of three low stools.
On the table, apart from three small porcelain cups, was a pot of steaming tea.
"Minister Su, how do you like the environment here?" Bai Youling said with a laugh.
Su Qingging took a sip of the yellowish tea, nodded, and smiled, "Mr. Bai, you're thoughtful. From my birth till
now, this is my first tseeing such a quaint building."
"If Minister Su likes it, you can canytime. Of course, all expenses are on me, Bai Youling." Bai Youling replied
with a smile.
"Well... thank you for your kindness, Mr. Bai."
Su Qingging smiled awkwardly, not directly responding to Bai Youling.
Apart from work, she didn’t want to have any interactions with men, let alone going out for tea. It would be a
better use of tto watch a couple of action blockbusters.”
Bai Youling raised his eyebrows, a bit dissatisfied with Su Qingging’s response, but didn’t express it.
Actually, he didn’t want to resort to drugs. Using drugs could win over Su Qingging, but only her body.
To win a woman's heart unlocks more possibilities. If he could win Su Qingging’s heart and have her willingly
bechis, unlocking more things would be even better, wouldn't it?
With this thought in mind, Bai Youling nonchalantly rolled up his suit sleeve...
"What the heck! A Patek Philippe Calatrava?"
Ye Huan, sitting nearby, suddenly exclaimed.
No one noticed the faint smirk at the corner of his mouth.
Hearing the exclamation, Bai Youling was delighted internally; his face remained indifferent as he said casually,
"You recognize it?"
"Of course I do. | know a lot about watches!"
"Mr. Bai, this watch of yours is the legendary Patek Philippe Calatrava, right? With its unique seven-jewel and
obsidian frdesign, plus the diamond-crafted clock hands, it exudes luxury at every moment!"
"It's said that this watch is priced at a whopping 6.66 million and is limited to just a hundred pieces worldwide. |
didn’t expect you to own one, Mr. Bai, that’s impressive!"
Ye Huan's eyes widened in shock, and he even stood up.
His words drew a sidelong glance and amazement from Su Qingging.

Such a watch, limited to a hundred pieces worldwide, and priced at 6.66 million?
Seeing Su Qingging’s astonished expression, along with Ye Huan's flattery, Bai Youling was internally jubilant,
almost bursting into laughter.
He was initially worried Su Qingging might not recognize it, but her assistant next to her clearly had some
knowledge of luxury goods, unwittingly helping him show off. How satisfying!
But...
Why did he say "also"?
Could it be a slip of the tongue? Probably...
"This watch?" Bai Youling casually took off the watch and tossed it onto the small table between them, "This was
sent by Patek Philippe’s head office. | don’t know how much it costs, so | just accepted it. Is it really as great as
you say?"
"Of course! This is a status symbol, Mr. Bai. Just think, being one of the hundred worldwide, and being a gift from
their headquarters, it speaks volumes about your prestige!"
Ye Huan sat down, marveling, with the corner of his mouth unintentionally rising, then blinked twice, asking
somewhat "flatteringly," "Mr. Bai, may I... may | have a look at the watch?"
"Sure, as you like." Bai Youling replied nonchalantly, secretly delighted.
Subtle showing off is the deadliest!
The calmer you act, the better the showing off effect!
"Is this watch... really that rare and valuable?" Su Qingqging raised her eyebrows slightly and then said, "The
materials do indeed look quite nice."
"I'm not too sure either, but it should match your assistant’s description."
"Of course, if Minister Su finds this watch appealing, | can give it to you."
Bai Youling smiled.
"No need..."
Su Qingging was just about to refuse when Ye Huan exclaimed:
"Mr. Bai, your watch... why is it fake!?"
