Chapter 126: Requesting a piece of land

In the current situation of Sheng's family, Sheng Yan is always bored working in the company alone. She still has to open her eyes and meet more acquaintances outside.

Even if the blind date fails, we can still become partners when the time comes.

Thinking about it this way, today's meal is not a loss.

"Okay, okay, I promise you, since there are guests coming at home, it's okay for me to go upstairs and clean up in advance, right?"

Du Xiaoling held onto Sheng Yan's hand without letting go at all. He looked at Sheng Yan with a pair of eagle eyes, fearing that if he let go, Sheng Yan would turn around and run away.

In the end, Sheng Yan had no choice but to sit down on the sofa.

"Grandpa, I know you arranged a blind date for me today. I really have no intention of running away. Although I can't get a blind date with them, at least I can get to know a few more friends. The current situation of the Sheng family also requires me to be outside. Make more friends.”

Hearing what Sheng Yan said, Du Xiaoling let go of Sheng Yan's hand.

"You're right to think so. In business, no one works alone, they all form alliances. Even if there is no one you like among the people here today, you can still get to know each other as business partners."

Sheng Yan rolled her eyes and didn't hear what Du Xiaoling said there, but she thought of a better way.

After Du Xiaoling's long speech ended, Sheng Yan spoke.

"Since I have agreed to your request, do you also have to agree to my request? Is this fair?"

As soon as he saw Sheng Yan like this, Du Xiaoling knew that he would probably feel pain again today.

Fortunately, the things he earned now were originally going to be given to Shengyan in the future. Thinking about it this way, it was not a physical pain at all.

"I want the land your company bought on the east side, where you plan to build a business district."

That piece of land was a project recently recruited by Xiaoling Group. Du Xiaoling had taken a liking to this land early on, but they were not the only company that was interested in this piece of land.

For this reason, Du Xiaoling spent a lot of effort to get this land. His god-granddaughter really wanted to kill him as soon as she opened her mouth.

The development of Xiaoling Group in recent years has reached a bottleneck period, and it has been unable to reach a higher level.

Originally, Du Xiaoling pointed to this piece of land to let Xiaoling Group break through this bottleneck, but now it seems that this plan is going to come to nothing.

Du Xiaoling pointed at Sheng Yan, with a smile on his face, but there was a bit more treachery in his smile.

"You really know how to ask for things, but since you asked and promised me to participate in this blind date, I will definitely not let you down."

"So grandpa, you promised to give me that piece of land?" Sheng Yan's voice was a little excited. Just listening to this voice, Du Xiaoling felt that the land was worth giving away.

Du Xiaoling nodded, and Sheng Yan became even more excited. She rushed to the front building and grabbed Du Xiaoling's neck.

He let go after only a second, and then ran upstairs.

"I'll go upstairs and clean up first. Thank you grandpa for enduring the pain!"

Seeing Sheng Yan skipping upstairs, Du Xiaoling and Housekeeper Zhou both showed aunty smiles from behind.

It wasn't until Sheng Yan disappeared around the corner of the stairs that Du Xiaoling turned around and planned to arrange something for Butler Zhou.

Unexpectedly, when he turned around, he saw Butler Zhou looking at Sheng Yan's back with a smile. His temper suddenly rose again, and he directly put his hand in front of Butler Zhou's eyes.

"What are you looking at? It's not your granddaughter. Go look after your own granddaughter!"

After a while, all the outstanding single men Du Xiaoling invited came, five in total, two of whom Sheng Yan knew.    One is Peng Shuo and the other is Tong Shengyu.

Du Xiaoling didn't directly tell these people today that they were here for a blind date. Instead, he told them that they were all young people and wanted to have a dinner together.

It just so happened that there were some business matters to discuss. Whether it was with the Du family or the Sheng family, these people cooperated.

However, most of Du Xiaoling's acquaintances were their elders, and he was not very familiar with them, so Du Xiaoling was a little embarrassed when Sheng Yan was not there when he first met them.

"Steward Zhou, please entertain them first. I'll go upstairs to see if there is anything Yan Yan needs help with."

Without chatting with them for a few words, Du Xiaoling immediately started to escape.

Housekeeper Zhou often receives guests, so it is no problem to greet these people.

It happened that this house had just been renovated by Sheng Yan, so Butler Zhou took them to the yard to visit for a while.

When they entered the house, they happened to see Du Xiaoling and Sheng Yan coming down from upstairs.

Sheng Yan said she went upstairs to clean up, but when Du Xiaoling went up, she realized that this little girl had gone to clean up. She just took a simple shower and changed into home clothes.

It was because he couldn't get used to Sheng Yan's outfit, so he forced her to change into another outfit, but it wasn't much better. Sheng Yan changed into white casual clothes.

The large sweatshirt and sweatpants completely covered Sheng Yan's good figure, but it gave her a bit more youthful air.

Coupled with the high ponytail that Sheng Yan casually tied up, she looked several years younger than when she was working. She now looked like a student who was still in school.

Unable to overcome Sheng Yan's temper, Du Xiaoling finally had no choice but to follow Sheng Yan downstairs.

While still on the stairs, Sheng Yan saw a familiar figure in the crowd - Peng Shuo.

Sheng Yan frowned and was about to ask Du Xiaoling, but then remembered that Du Xiaoling didn't know what happened to her at Sheng Mingyuan's house.

Several people downstairs had puzzled expressions on their faces when they saw Sheng Yan coming downstairs dressed like this, but soon they changed their gazes to admiration.

In their imagination, Sheng Yan attached great importance to this meeting, so she should have dressed more grandly.

Now it seemed that was not the case. She wished she could go downstairs in her pajamas.

But such a feast also brought some freshness to these people. They usually don't have the opportunity to see those ladies like this.

Wearing the most ordinary white sweatshirt and sweatpants, there is no makeup on the face and no accessories on the body.

However, such a gorgeous appearance gives people a very clean and pure feeling, emerging from the mud but not stained.

The people standing downstairs were stunned. Sheng Yan walked up to them and didn't even react.

It was only after Butler Zhou coughed twice that they quickly and naturally shifted their gazes.

Peng Shuo walked straight up to Sheng Yan and said, "Mr. Sheng, this is not the first time we have met. You should still remember me, right?"

In Peng Shuo's eyes, he had somehow saved her last time, so she naturally had a good impression of him.

However, Sheng Yan was not of such a temperament. She only knew that Peng Shuo was also Sheng Mingyuan's accomplice. He knew what Sheng Mingyuan wanted to do from the beginning.

The last time he helped him was just because he felt guilty. This could not be the reason why Sheng Yan had a good impression of him.
