Chapter 255: Meeting Jing Qingzhu
Jing Yan understood and looked at Chen Tan with a smile.
"Of course, this is just our request, and we hope that young friend Jing Yan can lend a hand. If young friend Jing Yan does not help, then we will not hold any grudges," Chen Tan continued.
The implication was that the gift just presented had nothing to do with requesting Jing Yan’s help, ensuring that Jing Yan did not misunderstand.
"Ha ha..." Jing Yan laughed.
"Elder Chen Tan, you want me to speak on Chen Family’s behalf in front of Chief Mu regarding this matter, is that right?" Jing Yan asked straightforwardly after laughing.
"Yes, that’s exactly what we mean," Chen Tan nodded.
"That’s possible!" Jing Yan said, "However, Elder Chen Tan, I cannot make any guarantees. I can inquire about this matter to Chief Mu on Chen Family’s behalf, but I cannot be sure that Chief Mu will take my words seriously. You should understand what I mean, right?"
Of course, Jing Yan would not give the Chen Family any guarantees because he was also uncertain about the actual situation. It was not necessarily the case that Mu Liantian had stalled the Chen Family’s procedure to purchase property in Lanqu Square Market because of the conflict between Jing Yan and Chen Yan. Even if it was indeed because Mu Liantian intended to support Jing Yan and warn the Chen Family, Jing Yan could not make any promises to them.
Hearing Jing Yan’s words, Chen Tan’s gaze immediately lit up.
He did not need any assurance from Jing Yan; as long as Jing Yan made a gesture in front of Mu Liantian, the matter could be resolved. Now, the only problem left was with Mu Liantian, who had halted the process. If Mu Liantian gave the green light, then naturally, there would be no issues.
"Thank you, young friend Jing Yan, for this favor; our Chen Family will always remember it! Young friend Jing Yan, our Chen Family Patriarch also asked me to convey a message to you—the Chen Family is always welcoming you to visit," Chen Tan said with noticeably more cheer.
"I will definitely visit when I have time," Jing Yan nodded.
