âWe are old friends, after all. Moreover, Qin Zong gave me such a generous gift. If I donât reciprocate, it would be impolite. So, even before the cemetery is built, I will reserve two of the best spots with a perfect view of your villa area for you and Wei Jiuâer to share a burial plot!â Shen Qingyue said with a smile, feeling quite pleased. Selling this cemetery would bring her a substantial profit.
Qin Zhenâs anger grew stronger, and he could not help raising his voice, âShen Qingyue! Donât you know how important the villa area is to the Qin Corporation now? Weâve already given you the land in the outskirts. Must you keep pushing further? Building a cemetery right across the villa area, do you know how much I will have to compensate for this?â
âSorry, why should I care about how important it is to you? None of my business! The land beneath that area is a karst cave, and we canât lay a foundation. Do you know how much money I can make by building a cemetery there?â Shen Qingyue looked at him, even finding his frustration insufficient. She wondered about what her fate would have been today if she had not encountered Tong Jia yesterday⦠Qin Zhen had become ruthless, while all she did was make him pay some money. What she did was nothing compared to his actions!
Qin Zhen gritted his teeth, âShen Qingyue, youâre going too far!â
Shen Qingyue responded nonchalantly, âThis is going too far? Qin Zhen, weâve just begun⦠In business, one has to do whatever it takes to succeed. You taught me that, didnât you? But Iâm slightly better at it. You made your move yesterday and failed. You lost the land in the outskirts, and the factory canât be built. You have to pay. Today, Iâm returning the favor. Your villa area has already been developed, and you still have to pay.â
Qin Zhen stared at her intensely, as if he wanted to devour her.
Ignoring his gaze, Shen Qingyue turned and left.
After she left, nobody around Qin Zhen spoke.
Chen Ying was a bit far away, but she had been watching. If things werenât right, she was prepared to intervene with her new little boy toy. However, when she saw Shen Qingyueâs triumphant expression and Qin Zhenâs ugly face, she refrained from interfering. Clearly, her sister had returned victorious.
âWhatâs the situation?â Chen Ying asked as soon as Shen Qingyue sat down.
Shen Qingyue briefly recounted the incident, leaving out the part where Qin Zhenâs men had captured her. She did not want Chen Ying to worry as well.
âWell done!â Chen Ying clapped her hands, feeling satisfied.
At this moment, her boy toy was whispering in her ear, clearly indicating that he wanted to go and take care of things. Chen Ying couldnât sit still anymore and was about to go into deeper communication with him.
Shen Qingyueâs eyes flashed slightly, âIâm afraid you canât go today.â
âHuh?â Chen Ying was puzzled. Then she turned her head and saw her big brother approaching. Recently, Chen Song had become stricter with her, and she did not know why.
The guy saw another man approaching and kept looking at Chen Ying, especially with that expression, clearly indicating something was up. He did not want to let this captured duck fly away. Leaning against Chen Ying, he began to stir things up, âSister, who is this? Arenât you supposed to love me the most?â
Chen Ying had not spoken yet when Chen Song stepped in, âI am her brother.â
Then he looked at Chen Ying and said, âLetâs go home.â
The little guy was shocked. As someone in this line of business, he had seen all sorts of relationships between men and women. How could this man be her brother? Did he mean brother-in-law?
Regardless of what the guy thought, Chen Ying did not dare resist her big brother. When he did not intervene, she could be free-spirited, but when he did, she had to obey. However, before leaving, she glanced at Shen Qingyue and mouthed, âNot cool! Why did you tell him about me?â
Then she saw the guy and felt embarrassed, so she signaled Shen Qingyue with her eyes: Help me with the money.
Shen Qingyue was speechless. Why did she even come out tonight?â
After she transferred the money to the guy, seeing that he still did not leave, Shen Qingyue could not help but ask, âWhatâs the matter? Do you want to follow them?â
âI wonât go. Itâs not worth the risk.â He did not believe that guy was really his brother; there was something off about his expression. Especially since Chen Ying listened to him, going over there would only be asking for trouble. He was here to make money, and he was not interested in deals without a guarantee.
Then he looked at Shen Qingyue and said, âSister, do you want to leave your contact information? Iâm very good at role-playing, and I can handle whatever style you want.â
Shen Qingyue replied, â⦠No need.â
Chen Ying followed Chen Song into the car, remaining silent the whole time. Her big brotherâs aura was just too strong.
âIn the past, when you went out to have fun, you always kept things in check.
But what about today? Youâre planning to spend the night with him?â Chen Song used to know that she liked good-looking guys, but he still had some basic expectations. However, what now? If Shen Qingyue had not messaged him, Chen Ying might have really gone away with that guy tonight..
