Chapter 394 Jealousy!

Translator: Lonelytree

Li Yuanhang’s peanuts became the focus of the entire birthday banquet. The guests initially only wanted to give them a try.

However, when the first peanut entered their mouths, they really regretted not snatching all the peanuts at once.

“This peanut is too delicious. Is this really a peanut?” Someone chewed a few times in his mouth, both surprised and puzzled.

After all, they had never eaten such a delicious peanut. The taste of the peanuts had surpassed any food they had eaten in the past.

“This peanut is really delicious. No wonder it’s so expensive.”

“Yeah, that’s right.”

These were people who didn’t lack money. They only cared about the item’s quality and value. Ordinary snacks like peanuts should be very unpresentable in their eyes. But these peanuts were made… I mean, sold by Li

Yuanhang.

Li Yuanhang was a status symbol. His existence added value to the supposedly cheap peanuts. On top of that, the peanuts were of high quality too. They were as good as the peanut oils he sold last time…

Of course, no matter the items, there was no reason for things to go for free.

All of a sudden, the peanuts Li Yuanhang brought disappeared.

Then, the entire hall was filled with the sound of crunching and munching.

The Guan family, “…”

This birthday banquet had become something else. Soon, everyone finished the peanuts in their hands. People stared at Li Yuanhang with burning eyes. “Special Assistant Li, do you still have more of these peanuts?

Sell some to me. 50,000 yuan per catty isn’t a problem.”

“Yeah, I want to buy some too. The price is not a problem.”

It was only fifty thousand.

It was equivalent to the cost of a meal for them sometimes.

Unexpectedly, Special Assistant Li spread out his hands, shook his head, and said, “I’m sorry, everyone, I really don’t have any peanuts anymore. I had some, but I gave them to CEO Peng since he wanted to present

them to his father-in-law. The last batch I had was shared by all the guests already.”

Everyone immediately felt very disappointed.

Was there no more?

They had only tasted a little bit. They were disappointed.

Then, a few elders who had a good relationship with Guan Zhendong turned their gazes on Guan Zhendong. They stared at the spot where the butler had placed the gifts.

Guan Zhendong saw the expressions of these people, and his heart thumped. He had a very bad feeling. He immediately understood their intentions and ordered the butler, “Hide the peanuts well.”

However, before the butler could do anything, the old men surrounded him.

“Old Guan, I like eating peanuts too. You shouldn’t eat too many peanuts with your teeth problem. You should share some with me.”

“Old Guan, you can’t forget my share.”

Hearing their shameless demands, Guan Zhendong scolded, “No. You people are too thick-skinned.

“No, this is my son-in-law’s birthday gift to me. I won’t share it. If you want it, then have your son-in-law buy it for you.”

“We want to, but Special Assistant Li already said he doesn’t have any more peanuts for sale. Your son-in-law bought the last batch he had.”

At this point, someone praised, “You really have a good son-in-law.”

He spent 500,000 to buy the peanuts, which cost 200 RMB per catty, just to give them to his father-in-law, who liked eating peanuts.

Such a son-in-law was really not bad.

When he heard his son-in-law being praised, Guan Zhendong said proudly, “Of course.” At his age, he valued thought and intention more than value.

No matter how valuable a gift was, it was the thought that mattered the most.

In the end, Guan Zhendong’s old friends stole a portion of the peanuts from him each. Each of them had taken half a catty, but it meant that half of Elder Guan’s peanuts were gone. His heart ached so badly.

From then on, he held the remaining peanuts tightly. Even if his favorite granddaughter and grandson came to ask, he would only give them one or two peanuts.

After Elder Guan’s banquet, many big shots in the business world paid special attention to Li Yuanhang’s movements in selling peanut oil and peanuts.

Once they heard any news, they would definitely confirm it with Li Yuanhang. If it were true, they would immediately make reservations. They knew that if they delayed, the price would rise higher.

However, Li Yuanhang stopped selling any peanuts. When asked, he only said, “The first harvest of the peanuts is over. So if you want the peanuts and peanut oils, you have to wait for the second season.”

When they heard that, they immediately made reservations for the second season of harvest. Just like that, the peanuts had opened the market in the upper circles of the capital.

Xiao Lingyu was dumbfounded again when she saw the 660,000 transferred over.

She called Gong Tianhao over and said, “Tianhao, come over and take a look. Did Assistant Li get things wrong? 660,000 RMB for 700 catties of Peanuts?”

Xiao Lingyu was told that the peanuts would be sold for 200 RMB per catty. Even if 700 catties were sold, there should only be a few hundred thousand RMB. Why was there suddenly an additional 500,000 RMB?

Plus, she heard from Li Yuanhang that the peanuts were supposed to be sold to the company employees only. That was why the price was set so low.

Then Xiao Lingyu’s eyes brightened. ‘Li Yuanhang must have sold the peanuts to the other big bosses.’

Gong Tianhao touched Xiao Lingyu’s long, black hair. It was very smooth.

He held her hand and leaned his head over to look at her phone message. Then, he said with a smile, “I guess Yuanhang has scammed some people again.”

“Ah, scammed?” Xiao Lingyu was dumbfounded and amused.

“Ahem…” Gong Tianhao coughed and then said with a serious smile, “Yu ‘Er, you know our peanuts are really good.

“In a place like the capital, there is no shortage of rich people. Perhaps someone found the real value of the peanuts and bought them from Yuanhang at a high price.” At this point, he paused and thought for a moment

before saying, “How about this? I’ll go ask Li Yuanhang and see how he got the 500,000 RMB?”

Xiao Lingyu nodded in agreement. “Okay!” In fact, she was also very curious about how Li Yuanhang sold the peanuts.

Gong Tianhao called Li Yuanhang directly in front of Xiao Lingyu. When the call was connected, the other party spoke first, “Tianhao, what’s the matter?”

Gong Tianhao asked, “Yuanhang, there’s an extra 500,000 for peanuts. What’s going on? Yu ‘Er wants to know.”

Li Yuanhang, who was on the other side, instantly felt a little embarrassed, but he quickly returned to normal.

Li Yuanhang told the truth, “The buyer was a company CEO. He bought the peanuts for his father-in-law as a birthday gift. How can the price be low?”

It sounded like Li Yuanhang had cheated Peng Yufei, but in fact, he had helped the man a lot. Now, everyone knew that Peng Yufei really had a big filial heart.

The peanuts needed to be packaged to have extra value. If he really sold them to Peng Yu for 200 per catty, he would be ridiculed at the birthday banquet. After all, his father-in-law was celebrating his 80th birthday.

With Peng Yufei’s background, how could he bring a gift of several thousand to his father-in-law?

Therefore, Li Yuanhang was making a ball for Peng Yufei. Of course, Li Yuanhang benefitted from this too. At least, this solidified his reputation as a seller of good peanuts.

Xiao Lingyu was speechless after she heard the story. Who would buy peanuts as a birthday gift? But even more ridiculous was the peanuts were sold for 50,000 RMB per catty. That was even pricier than the peanut

oil.

Previously, the highest price of peanut oil was 20,000, but now, the price of peanuts was 50,000.

Just as Li Yuanhang finished reporting the situation of the peanut sales, Li Yuanhang asked with a smile, “Madam…”

Madam Xiao Lingyu, “…”

Xiao Lingyu shook her head and immediately stopped him, “Special Assistant Li, you should still call me Xiao Lingyu like before. I have goosebumps if you call me Madam.”

Although she and Gong Tianhao were boyfriend and girlfriend, they were not husband and wife. She was not ready to accept people calling her Madam.

Li Yuanhang nodded and said, “Alright.”

Li Yuanhang also understood.

After all, Xiao Lingyu and Gong Tianhao had not been in a relationship for long. Although they had a child, they were not married yet.

Li Yuanhang continued to ask, “Xiao Lingyu, do you still have peanuts at home? Can you send some to me?”

Xiao Lingyu raised her eyebrows and asked in confusion, “Send you peanuts? I remember sending you 200 catties of peanuts. Have you finished them so quickly?”

When he said this, Li Yuanhang burst into tears.

He said, “You don’t know that there are a group of bandits in my office. This group of female bandits has good eyes and sharp noses. They discovered the peanuts immediately.

“Naturally, they looted my office and left me only a few pitiful handfuls.”

Hearing Li Yuanhang’s complaints, Xiao Lingyu was speechless again.

She suddenly asked, “Why did you bring them to the office? You should leave them at home.”

n any case, listening to Li Yuanhang’s tone, the people at his office were on good terms.

Li Yuanhang, “…”

The peanuts were delivered to his office. He couldn’t help himself and took out a few to taste. Then, he had something to do and went out for a trip. He forgot to sweep away the peanuts on his table.

Who would have thought that when he returned, his office had already been ransacked by the female bandits? With their sharp eyes, they quickly found the peanuts that he had hidden.

Then, ignoring his angry roars and struggles, they immediately split the spoils on the spot.

In an instant, the peanuts were split, leaving only a pitiful bit for Li Yuanhang.

Li Yuanhang smiled and replied, “I didn’t have the time to bring them home.”

However, Li Yuanhang believed that he wouldn’t have that chance. The female bandits had very sensitive noses. Whenever the delivery arrived, they would know.

Li Yuanhang asked again, “Look, do you have any more? Can you send some more to me?”

Gong Tianhao, who was beside Xiao Lingyu, noticed that Xiao Lingyu had been chatting with Li Yuanhang for a very long time. His entire body was emitting black smoke. His girlfriend was very chatty with his

subordinate. Yu ‘Er had never talked so long with him on the phone before.

Xiao Lingyu was about to say that she could send some to him when she accidentally caught a glimpse of Gong Tianhao’s jealous and unhappy face. She asked in a low voice, “What’s wrong?”

“You and Li Yuanhang are getting along so well. Aren’t you two done talking?” Gong Tianhao said unhappily, “Why haven’t we been able to talk on the phone for this long before?”

He was filled with jealousy.

Li Yuanhang was speechless.

Sometimes, he thought he was hallucinating.

Gong Tianhao was jealous? Who would have thought this day would come.

It was so funny.

If he told others, they would laugh their heads off.

Xiao Lingyu was used to her new boyfriend’s jealousy.

She said, “I’m more familiar with Special Assistant Li than I am with you.”

Gong Tianhao immediately said unwillingly, “You’ve only met Li Yuanhang a few times. How can you be familiar with him?”

He gave Li Yuanhang a cross in his heart. In the future, he definitely couldn’t answer his calls in front of his wife. Wait, he would blacklist Li Yuanhang.

Xiao Lingyu directly ignored Gong Tianhao’s jealousy and continued to speak to Li Yuanhang, “I still have some at home. I have reserved them for gifts. Special Assistant Li, what kind of flavor do you prefer? I can

prepare them.”

“Thank you, Xiao Lingyu,” Li Yuanhang said happily. “I like all the flavors of peanuts. However, if you want to say what I like the most, it’s the plain peanuts.”

Xiao Lingyu nodded and said, “Okay, I got it.”

After Xiao Lingyu hung up the phone, she saw that her boyfriend was still jealous, so she smiled and coaxed him, “Okay, don’t be angry.”

Gong Tianhao said, “You’re so good to him that you wanted to send him the peanuts?” Why should his wife give her crops to others?

She shook her head slightly and then explained, “I did it for you. You’ve been in Taoyuan Village for so long, and the entire company has been left to special assistant Li. Shouldn’t I send him some peanuts to reward him

on your behalf?”

Gong Tianhao’s eyes lit up, and he said happily, “Yes, Yu ‘Er did the right thing.”

Just as Gong Tianhao was about to kiss Xiao Lingyu happily, Xiao Xiaohui rushed over and said anxiously, “Not good, not good. Big Sister, big brother-in-law, Little Light is missing.”

“What?!”.
