However, Qin Zhen’s apology was worthless in Shen Qingyue’s eyes. She sat in her chair, looking at him with a smile on her face. “Qin Zhen, you never change, shameless as always. What? Do you think you’re someone special? Just a simple apology, and you think it can cover up everything? You really think highly of yourself.’
Anger surged in Qin Zhen’s eyes. “What do you want then?”
Shen Qingyue continued to watch him calmly. “I must build the cemetery; I need to make money.”
“That piece of land is not suitable for a cemetery at all. Even if you build it, you won’t make much money,” Qin Zhen tried to reason with her.
“Oh. So what?” Shen Qingyue shrugged. “I can afford it. That land is practically being sold at a bargain. I can make a profit by selling a few plots. But I guess your villa area will suffer significant losses, right?”
Qin Zhen chuckled. For the first time, he realized Shen Qingyue was quite good at getting on people’s nerves. He took a deep breath and looked at her. “I’m interested in that piece of land you have. Name your price, I’ll buy it! Is that
“It seems like you’re sincerely interested, Mr. Qin! I bought it for 50 million yuan… make that 500 million! How about it?” Shen Qingyue adjusted her posture comfortably, twirled a pen in her hand, and looked at him.
“You…” Qin Zhen gritted his teeth.
“Is it too expensive for you? Then don’t buy it,” Shen Qingyue said with a smile.
“I’ll buy it!” Qin Zhen exclaimed as if he were spitting blood.
Shen Qingyue stood up. “Great! A pleasant cooperation!”
Qin Zhen was truly on the verge of exasperation. “I’ll have someone prepare the contract.” He then turned and walked away.
Shen Qingyue did not mind at all; she casually earned 500 million yuan, considering the initial investment, it was still a profitable venture! Especially when this money made Qin Zhen suffer as if he were losing flesh, it made her even happier. If she was not worried that Qin Zhen might do something reckless, she would have demanded even more.
During lunch, her good mood persisted, and she could not help but share the news with Chi Ming.
Chi Ming was also delighted, never expecting that Shen Qingyue would make such a choice. Overwhelmed with excitement, he brought Shen Qingyue home right away.
Shen Qinzvue looked around, puzzled. “Aren’t we here to eat?”
“Yes, I’ll cook it myself!” Chi Ming said earnestly.
“Really this time? Not like last time when you ‘cooked’ with a receipt beside the food?” Shen Qingyue did not believe him.
Chi Ming helplessly replied, “Why do you always bring up old matters?”
Considering Chi Ming’s culinary skills, Shen Qingyue ended up cooking the meal herself. She was very dissatisfied with this outcome. “You said you were treating me, but I ended up cooking!”
Chi Ming held her little hand. “Well, now you’ll feed me, and tonight I’ll feed you…”
��Get lost!” Shen Qingyue did not want to deal with him anymore. She noticed that Chi Ming was unusually cheerful today. What’s up with him? Did he win the lottery?
After getting off work, Tong Jia first went to the hospital to visit her mother. Seeing that her condition was not bad, she stayed with her for a while before heading home. When she approached the alley near her home, she looked around to make sure no one was around before carefully walking toward her house.
But just as she was about to open the door, she heard a piercing female voice from behind. “Coming back so late? Did you go sell yourself somewhere? How could someone as ugly as you find a man?”
The woman’s words were filled with malice, as if she wanted to heap all the world’s hatred onto Tong Jia.
Tong Jia shuddered. “Miss Ling, I don’t understand. Why do you keep bothering me? What have I done to offend you?”
“Hmph!” Ling Bing’er naturally would not reveal the real reason, or else she would lose face. “I just think you’re ugly. Ugly people are always up to no good, and just looking at you disgusts me!”
If it weren’t for the fact that she could not get in touch with those big men, she would not have come here herself. But no matter what, she could not let the grievances she suffered from Shen Qingyue go unanswered. If she did not release her anger on someone, how could she cope?
As Tong Jia spoke to her, she was trying to distract her attention and quickly open the door to get inside.
However, Ling Bing’er noticed and grabbed her hair. “You little sl*t, you want to run? Today, I’ll help you fix that face of yours!”
Tong Jia felt the pain from being pulled but did not want to give up so easily. She used Ling Bing’er’s strength to her advantage, turned her head, and fiercely bit Ling Bing’er’s hand.
Ling Bing’er winced in pain and subconsciously let go.
Tong Jia managed to open the door slightly and quickly slipped inside, then closed the door, ignoring Ling Bing’er’s curses and insults from outside.
Ling Bing’er covered her bleeding hand. “You b*tch! If you have the guts, never come out again. When you do, I’ll make sure to kill you!”
Shen Jun’s birthday was approaching, and Shen Qingyue wanted to go gift shopping with Chen Ying. However, every time she tried to make plans with Chen Ying, Chen Ying said she had something else to do. Shen Qingyue felt something was amiss because with Chen Ying’s lively personality, it was unlike her to be so quiet….
