Chapter 10

Knock, knock!

The cold and beautiful woman sat back down at her desk, took a deep breath, and her face instantly returned to a calm expression. "Come in!"

The worker who entered said, "President Ling, there are people causing trouble outside again. Please come and handle it!" The worker glanced at the cold and beautiful woman out of the corner of his eye and then unconsciously lowered his head. A woman like her was not someone he had the right to pursue.

The cold and beautiful woman said indifferently, "Which village are they from, and how many people are there?"

The worker replied, "A car has arrived, but we don't know which village they are from yet."

The cold and beautiful woman felt a wave of annoyance and some bitterness. What were these men doing? They always wanted her, a woman, to handle things. How many people could fit in one car? Could the hundred or so men on the construction site not handle such a small matter?

"I understand. You can go back now!" The cold and beautiful woman said in a cold tone.

The worker didn't dare to say more, turned, and left, closing the door behind him.

The cold and beautiful woman sighed lightly, a self-mocking smile appearing at the corner of her mouth. Sometimes she really doubted her own abilities. She had finally obtained the approval of the Green Mountain Town government to develop the Great Green Mountain, but now she had encountered a stubborn resident. Calling him the most stubborn resident in history was not an exaggeration. He demanded 100,000 yuan per square meter, and added 10,000 yuan for each day that passed!

Knock, knock! The office door rang again.

The cold and beautiful woman's face showed a hint of anger. "Come in!"

"Sis, I came to see you!" The door opened, and Ling Xuan appeared at the door, her face full of excitement.

The cold and beautiful woman immediately changed her expression, took the peaches from Ling Xuan's hand, and smiled. "Why didn't you call me before you came? I could have picked you up."

"I wanted to give you a surprise, sis. Do you miss me?" Ling Xuan giggled.

The sisters chatted for a while, and then Ling Xuan said, "Sis, are you hiding something from me?"

Ling Siyi smiled lightly. "What could I be hiding? Since you're here, don't go back to school until it starts. We can have a good chat."

Ling Xuan pouted. "Sis, don't lie to me. Others might not see through it, but I can. Tell me, what's going on?" Ling Siyi smiled. "It's just some business matters. You wouldn't understand, so don't ask."

"Who dares to bully you? I'll make that guy beat him up!" Ling Xuan, thinking of Chu Ying waiting outside for money, quickly said, "Sis, give me 1,200 yuan and a phone."

Ling Siyi frowned. "What do you need that for?"

"It's that black-hearted guy!" Ling Xuan said angrily, not waiting for Siyi to ask further, and told her everything about encountering Chu Ying. She ended with a giggle, "Sis, you should have seen Zhang Baogang's face at the time. He looked like a pig's head!"

Ling Siyi said in a serious tone, "What's the name of the person you mentioned? Da Ying?"

"Sis, do you know him too?" Ling Xuan asked, puzzled.

"Where is he? Bring him in!" Ling Siyi couldn't believe that the most stubborn resident had come to her door. Did he really think she wouldn't dare to do anything to him?

Seeing her sister's unfriendly expression, Ling Xuan didn't dare to ask more and ran out. As soon as she reached the first floor, she saw Chu Ying walking towards her. He said, "Why are you so slow with the money? Are you trying to avoid paying?"

Ling Xuan scolded, "Did you bully my sister?"

Chu Ying laughed. "Are you crazy? I haven't even seen what your sister looks like or if she's a man or a woman. When did I bully her?"

That was the truth. Since he came back, apart from Chu Xin, he had only seen one woman... Wait, there was another one, "Could it be her?" Chu Ying thought of the woman he met on the bus and shouted it out.

"You really bullied my sister! You big bad guy! Pervert! Liar!" Ling Xuan spewed out all the insults she could think of, still feeling unsatisfied, and said angrily, "I order you to go in and apologize to my sister now. If she doesn't forgive you, you have to keep apologizing until she's satisfied!"

"Looks like they're both the same!" Chu Ying thought, and walked towards the office building. He wanted to see if the snob would still have the nerve to face him.

"I'll lead the way!" Seeing Chu Ying willing to apologize, Ling Xuan's anger subsided by half.

A moment later, they arrived at Ling Siyi's office door. Ling Xuan said, "Wait here. I'll go in and check first. My sister has a bad temper, so be polite, okay?"

Thinking of the 1,200 yuan, Chu Ying nodded patiently, thinking that although the girl seemed wild, she had a good heart, which was better than her snobbish sister.

"Ling Siyi, I brought him!" Ling Xuan said straightforwardly.

Ling Siyi said angrily, "Bring him in!"

"Sis..."

"Bring him in!" Ling Siyi said impatiently.

Ling Xuan stuck out her tongue, turned, and left the office, whispering to Chu Ying, "My sister is in a bad mood. Don't offend her, or I won't hire you as my teacher!"

Chu Ying shook his head and entered the office. "Are you still thinking about that ring? Wait... Aren't you that snob?" Standing in front of Chu Ying was a cold and beautiful woman in a business suit, who looked seven parts like Ling Xuan. She was tall and well-proportioned, especially her chest, which was heaving with anger, almost about to burst out.

She was stunningly beautiful, with a mature woman's charm, and could be called a "rare beauty."

Compared to the woman on the bus, this cold and beautiful woman was in a different league. Her face was cold, and her eyes seemed to be on fire.

"You're the snob! Your whole family is snobs!" Ling Siyi, seeing the country bumpkin staring at her chest, was already angry and now even more so.

"Hehe, sorry, I mistook you for someone else!" Chu Ying scratched his head, realizing that calling her a snob was indeed "rude to a beauty."

Ling Xuan looked at the two of them in confusion. Although her sister had a bad temper, she rarely lost her temper, and never this much. She pinched Chu Ying's waist hard and said fiercely, "Hurry up and apologize to my sister!"

Before Chu Ying could speak, Ling Siyi's expression returned to calm, and she waved her hand. "Xuan Xuan, you can go out now!"

Ling Xuan was anxious and whispered in Chu Ying's ear, "Men should have some tact!"

As the office door closed, Ling Siyi said coldly, "You're the most stubborn resident?"

"The most stubborn resident?" Chu Ying touched his nose, slightly surprised, but quickly returned to normal, a playful smile appearing at the corner of his mouth. "So you're the one behind it all."
