Chapter 5

Inside the general manager's office of Fangzheng Electronics Factory.

"Brother Feng, you must give me that piece of land! I've already pre-ordered all the equipment!" The factory manager, Sun Xing, looked at a man with long hair with a pleading gaze. The man was named Wang Feng, a department manager at Tian Da Real Estate. They had originally agreed to sell a piece of land for three million yuan to build another branch factory, but today Wang Feng came and said he wouldn't give it to him anymore.

Due to the existence of criminal forces within Tian Da Real Estate, Sun Xing didn't dare to say anything and could only beg.

What Sun Xing didn't know was that this was all part of Wang Feng's scheme. Tian Da Real Estate had already agreed to sell the land to Sun Xing, but Wang Feng wanted to use this to extort money from him.

Sun Xing sighed, "Oh, Brother Sun, it's not up to me. I had originally agreed to sell it to you, but another boss offered four million yuan, and my boss decided to sell it to him. Unless you can offer more, I'm powerless." Wang Feng waved his hands, indicating his helplessness.

"Four million! Who is it?" Sun Xing was startled.

"Hehe, that's a trade secret, I can't tell you. Our boss originally planned to sell it directly to that person, but I persuaded him to see if you would raise your offer." Wang Feng looked at Sun Xing and asked.

"Four million, I have to raise it... Brother Feng, can you lower it a bit? I don't have that much liquid capital." Sun Xing's factory wasn't large, with an annual profit of only a few million yuan, and most of the funds were tied up in equipment and materials, leaving little available.

"Ah, that's difficult..." Wang Feng smacked his lips, about to speak when there was a knock on the door. Sun Xing gave Wang Feng an apologetic look. Wang Feng gestured for him to go ahead. Sun Xing nodded, "Come in."

The door opened, and Wang Feng's eyes lit up when he saw the person. In front of him was a girl dressed simply but exquisitely.

Chu Yarou glanced at Wang Feng, then her beautiful eyes fell on Sun Xing. Sun Xing immediately showed an impatient expression: "What are you here for?"

"Uncle, my mom sent me to borrow money from you..." Chu Yarou's voice was weak, giving a sense of fear.

"I have no money!" Sun Xing shouted impatiently, glaring at Chu Yarou, "I've already told you, don't waste money on a dying man. He can't be saved!"

"No, Dad can still be saved. As long as he takes the medicine every month, his life can be extended, and I believe a miracle will happen. Uncle, please, lend me the money!" Chu Yarou's tears started to flow, quickly turning her face into a touching sight, making anyone who saw her feel heartbroken.

"Go away, giving you money is like throwing it into the water. Besides, I'm in a tight spot right now." Sun Xing said coldly.

Wang Feng, standing to the side, looked at Chu Yarou with a bright, lustful gaze, a sinister smile on his lips.

Chu Yarou, seeing her heartless uncle, knew he wouldn't lend her the money and stopped begging. She turned and left, crying. She hadn't really expected much, hoping that this cold-hearted uncle might suddenly have a change of heart, but it seemed that was just a fantasy.

As soon as Chu Yarou left, Wang Feng smiled lecherously and said, "Brother Sun, is that girl your niece?"

"Ah, Brother Feng, yes. But her family is poor, and I don't want to be associated with them." Sun Xing said angrily.

Wang Feng's eyes twinkled, "Hehe, Brother Sun, actually, I have a very close relationship with my boss. I can persuade him to sell you the land for four million yuan..."

"Really? That's great, Brother Feng, I knew you wouldn't abandon me!" Sun Xing was overjoyed. Although it was one million yuan more than planned, it saved him even more money. He thought, if another boss offered four million yuan, he would have to offer even more, which he couldn't afford. But he had to get that land because there was no better location elsewhere. Four million yuan, though tight, was still manageable.

Wang Feng smiled slyly, "But, there's a condition."

"Condition? Brother Feng, just say it. As long as I can get the land, I'll agree to anything." Sun Xing asked frantically.

"Just have your niece accompany me for dinner tonight. That shouldn't be too hard, right?" Wang Feng's tone was more of a command than a request, looking at Sun Xing with a determined expression. He had been captivated by Chu Yarou at first sight and wanted to have his way with her immediately. If this were his own office, he would have acted without hesitation, but this wasn't his territory. Moreover, Chu Yarou was Sun Xing's niece, and he couldn't act rashly.

"Bang!" Sun Xing's heart tightened, looking at Wang Feng in shock, thinking, "What dinner? You just want to do that."

He realized Wang Feng's true intentions. Chu Yarou was his niece, and it was said she hadn't dated anyone and was still a virgin. Sun Xing knew Wang Feng's character all too well. He didn't want to give his niece to such a person, but thinking of the land, he had to give in. Seeing Wang Feng's smug expression, Sun Xing forced a smile, "Hehe, Brother Feng, this... this depends on her. If she doesn't agree, I can't force her to come to you." Sun Xing looked like a bitter gourd.

"Of course, but from her earlier desperation, I think she will agree. Leave it to you. Don't worry, as long as the beauty invites me to dinner, the land deed will be in your hands the next morning."

"Alright, Brother Feng, rest assured, I'll make sure it's done!" Sun Xing was very excited. He knew Chu Yarou's father needed expensive medication every month to control his condition, or he would die. Moreover, she and her mother had nowhere else to borrow money, only from him. He believed she would agree.

Although he felt it was a pity for such a beautiful girl to be defiled, he had to put that aside for the land.

"Good, contact her now!" Wang Feng couldn't wait to spend the night with Chu Yarou.

"Brother Feng, not now. Think about it, she just left. If I call her back now and ask her, she won't agree. Wait until she goes home and tells her mother she couldn't borrow money from me. Seeing her mother's pitiful state and her father in bed, she'll be very upset. Then I'll call her, and she'll definitely agree." Sun Xing smiled at the anxious Wang Feng.

"Alright! I didn't expect you to have some brains. Fine, I'll wait one more day." Wang Feng said helplessly.

Jiang Yu walked toward Sun Xing's office. He had already greeted Sun Xing, and due to his reputation in the area, Sun Xing readily agreed to settle his accounts and let him go.

As Jiang Yu walked, he suddenly saw a girl come out of Sun Xing's office. He was startled; he recognized her but wasn't sure. The girl didn't look at Jiang Yu and walked away, crying.

Seeing this, Jiang Yu naturally thought the girl had been bullied by Sun Xing. But it wasn't his business; he was just there to get his money and leave.

"Knock, knock, knock!" Jiang Yu knocked on the door.
