Chapter 273: Selling Information
Translator: 549690339 |
In a coffee shop located five kilometers away from the city hospital, Qiao Haidong was sitting face-to-face with Madam Lu.
He had deliberately chosen a cafe quite far from the hospital to prevent Madam Lu from suspecting anything about Qiao Yin’s pregnancy.
Madame Lu lacked the patience to beat around the bush with him: “Qiao Haidong, what news do you have exactly? Hurry up, I’m busy!”
“Madam Lu, the news I hold is definitely a hundred times more important than what’s keeping you busy. However, you must first pay me an information fee for me to divulge it.”
“Are you refusing a toast so you can really eat a forfeit?”
Madam Lu’s face hardened: “If your news is truly essential, will I not pay for it? But you refuse to say anything and still expect me to pay; do you take me for a fool?”
Qiao Haidong hesitated for a moment and finally admitted, “It is news about Qiao Yin, very distressing, really.”
Madam Lu looked somewhat doubtful for a moment: “Qiao Yin? What about her? Could she… be dead?”
Qiao Haidong was momentarily silenced. Madam Lu truly hated Qiao Yin, even hoping she was dead.
“No, she’s alive and well.”
“Then what news could she have? Qiao Haidong, can you stop beating around the bush? It’s truly annoying!”
“How about this, Madam Lu pays me a deposit of five million first, once I spill the news, you pay me another five million.”
Madam Lu was so enraged she nearly splashed her coffee on Qiao Haidong’s face: “I have already given you the five million, what more do you want? I warn you, those who are excessively greedy, usually end up being the cause of their own demise!”
“Madam Lu, the five million you gave me previously was a loan, which I will return to you. This time, I am asking you for ten million. This ten million is for the news, I do not have to return it. There is a difference between the two, so you will still need to pay to hear the news.”
Seeing her anger, Qiao Haidong moderated his tone, “Rest assured, my news is worth the price. Otherwise, I wouldn’t dare to ask! I am unescapable, should I dare to trick you, wouldn’t it be a piece of cake for you to teach me a lesson?” 𝖋𝔯𝔢𝔢𝔴𝖊𝔟𝔫𝖔𝖛𝖊𝖑.𝔠𝔬𝔪
Madam Lu pondered. She found his argument somewhat reasonable. After all, Qiao Haidong wouldn’t dare abscond. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have lent him five million in the first place.
She has plenty of ways to get her money back.
“I can give you a deposit, but five million is too much, and I don’t have that much cash on hand. I’ll give you two million first, and the rest when you’ve delivered the news.”
“No, no, two million is too little, five million!”
Madam Lu, with a gloomy face, stood up: “Then I will not listen anymore, you can try and get the money from someone else!”
Having said this, she turned to leave.
Qiao Haidong quickly stood up and grabbed her arm, “Okay, okay, okay, two million it is. Please transfer the money quickly!”
Madam Lu sat back down, made a phone call, and asked someone to transfer two million to Qiao Haidong.
Upon receiving the money, a deep smile surfaced on Qiao Haidong’s face.
Although Madam Lu had previously found his face slightly handsome, she now found his face insufferable, utterly repugnant.
With a cold voice, she asked, “What is the news?”
Leaning in towards her, Qiao Haidong lowered his voice, “My daughter, Qiao Yin, is pregnant with a son, by Lu Lingche.”
“What?!”
Madam Lu was alarmed, her hand knocking over the coffee. The piping hot coffee splashed onto her hand, but she disregarded the pain.
She bolted to her feet: “Are you telling the truth?!”
“Absolutely certain. Qiao Yin is in the hospital, if you don’t believe me, you can verify it for yourself.”
Madam Lu’s face swiftly paled.
Unacceptable. This news cannot reach Lu Lingche!
And no way can Lu Mingzhen know about it!
Because she had deceived Lu Mingzhen, telling him that Lu Lingche was infertile.
She said that the baby Lan Yuyi was carrying was the Lu Family’s only descendant, that’s why Lu Mingzhen agreed to let Lan Yuyi marry Lu Lingche, that’s why he allowed Lan Yuyi to have this child!
If Lu Mingzhen found out she dare trick him with such a matter, he would definitely be furious!
