Chapter 69: Living in a Building That Costs Money and Life

Being stared at by the new guests, Jiang Ning calmly ate the crispy shell of the ice cream, met their gazes and said.

"Why are you looking at me? If you're moving to the top floor, you'll need to drag your suitcases around yourself. It's not ethical to ask a weak little girl like me to do the hard labor."

Tang Li and others: A weak little girl?

Is this adjective used to describe her?

Zheng Yong didn't know about Jiang Ning's feat of knocking a strong-aged man to the ground with a brick in one hand, so he didn't find it strange when he heard Jiang Ning's words.

After all, Jiang Ning's appearance is indeed very deceptive. Anyone looking at her fair and slender arms and legs would not be so cruel as to let such a girl do heavy work.

"Miss Jiang, you misunderstood. We have three gentlemen here. Why would we ask Miss Jiang to help drag the suitcases? I just think Miss Jiang is more suitable to live in a place like the top floor T, rather than being stuck in this small villa with no one to take care of her and having to do everything by herself." Zheng Yong said with a gentle face.

Zheng Yong understood the appeasement strategy the best. Now he wanted to explore Jiang Ning's feelings, so he didn't hesitate to act so gentle that he wanted to hold her in his hands and pamper her.

As a businessman, he always speaks nicely, but Jiang Ning looked at Zheng Yong's eyes, which contained other meanings, and then looked away indifferently.

What did a small woman like her need a big house for? It would be much better for her if Zheng Yong offered her his melons and let her dig them up and eat them.

"Thank you for the invitation, but I politely decline."

"Living in that kind of house could kill you. This is my first time as a human being, so I still cherish my life."

Zheng Yong, who was about to try to persuade her, and Xu Yumin, who were waiting for Jiang Ning to go to the Louwang Villa so they could figure out what Jiang Ning was thinking, were stunned when they heard this voice.

"The building king cost tens of billions to build, and the materials used are extremely exquisite. Nothing can go wrong with it, so you can live there without worry." Zheng Yong stopped trying to persuade Jiang Ning and hurriedly explained to the new guests.

The production team didn't know that the resort was his asset, but Zheng Yong had just completed a big order not long ago. He finally got this money-making resort, but he hadn't made any money yet. He didn't want to let this golden nugget go to waste.

Zheng Yong's words calmed Xu Yumin and the other two down a bit.

This resort is marketed as a holy place for wealthy people to travel and vacation, so it must have invested a lot. How is it possible that people would die after staying there? If that were true, would the resort business still be viable?

They were also stupid. How could they actually believe Jiang Ning? What if she said that on purpose? Not only would they be embarrassed, but they would also offend the owner behind the resort. That was not worth it.

"Of course we believe Mr. Zheng. Some people are just jealous that we can live in the best-floor apartment. They themselves are just feeling aggrieved and squeezed into this small villa with so many people, so they talk nonsense. Don't take it seriously." Xu Yumin glanced at Jiang Ning with contempt, then turned to Zheng Yong and said.

"Mr. Zheng, please stop inviting such tactless people. We should move there sooner rather than later. The air quality in Flower Country isn't very good to begin with. After spending so much time with people like this, I feel like the air around me is getting even less fresh."

Xu Yumin didn't mention anyone by name, but her eyes were clearly directed at Jiang Ning.

[What are these two people talking about? I don't understand. Doesn't Jiang Ning want to live in the building's king villa? This is not a big deal. Jiang Ning is so familiar with the resident guests, she must be living with Jiang Qing and the others. It's not surprising that she refused, right?]

[Even more strange is Xu Yumin. What does she mean by that? Is she worshipping foreigners? And the air is stale. If you dislike it, just get out of the Flower Country. Why are you pretending?]

I used to have a very good impression of Xu Yumin, but now I'm at a loss for words. I heard she's been active in Rose Country for the past few years, and I saw yxh say she came back this time to apply for immigration. I didn't believe it before, but now I'm starting to believe it.

[Here we go again! Why is this variety show so confusing? My screen is broken, and I don't see any guests wearing microphones. How did they suddenly change the topic?]

[Calm down, sister above! This is just a variety show, and variety shows are likely scripted. If you take it too seriously, you'll lose.]

[It was a script once, but it's like this every episode. The topics they jump to are so sudden and dangerous. I don't believe it's all scripted. I'm keeping an eye on it and I have to find the reason!]

[Uh, this is the first time I've met such a serious audience. Follow me, and if you have any news, please send me a tip.]

Jiang Ning is a good-tempered bastard who only treats melon owners who produce melons for her to eat. Especially for melon owners who are seeking death, who are bad in different ways and whose life is coming to an end, she uses the most friendly attitude to send them off.

"Yes, yes, it's unfair for you to stay here. Please come in, your big villa is waiting for you to live in."

If Jiang Ning started scolding them, they would have felt normal, but seeing her urging them to move to the top floor, they felt uneasy.

Having just done something to someone else, Xu Yumin didn't want to be looked down upon by Jiang Ning, so she pulled over her suitcase and said.

"Of course we will go without you telling us."

Jiang Ning nodded, "Yeah, hurry up, the air in the upper floor is the freshest, waiting for you to breathe it in."

"The air quality of this small villa cannot compare to the villa built with the best materials." Xu Yumin said with a sidelong glance at Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning put a piece of potato chips into his mouth and chewed it with a crunching sound.

[It's incomparable. Living here is quiet. A small villa only costs money, but a king-level apartment costs both money and life.]

[Those so-called high-quality materials were bought by the brother-in-law of the previous resort owner, who spent two-thirds of the project funds. They are indeed high-quality materials. Materials that can cause leukemia if you live in them are not something you can find everywhere.]

After the building was completed, a guest who moved in contracted this disease. My brother-in-law tried to suppress it, but he couldn't suppress it anymore and the former boss found out. What could he do? He couldn't report my brother-in-law and have him jailed. He could only find a scapegoat to clean up the mess.

[Just right, the idiot who thought he had gotten a great deal is right here.]

The scapegoat Zheng Yong: "..."

My hands were shaking like Parkinson's, and I felt a chill down my spine.

Few people know that the resort has changed its owner. He hasn't even met the person in charge yet. The only people who know about it are the former owner and his family who have already gone abroad.

Jiang Ning is just a little star, there is no way she could know such a secret.

Zheng Yong wanted to remain calm and not believe what Jiang Ning said, but he had helped his former boss complete a big order, and his regret that he couldn't take the resort away seemed strange now, as if it was waiting for him to take over this gold nugget.

However, he was dazzled by the sudden benefits, and since the big bosses who placed orders gave him a lot of benefits, he didn't think much about it.

But what if Lou Wang really can make people sick? Even if he can have evidence to prove that those patients have nothing to do with him, once the police are attracted, he will not be able to hide how he got this resort.

Zheng Yong clenched his fists and tried to calm himself down.

No one has revealed the truth about the building king yet, and no one knows that the resort is his. He still has a chance to turn the tables, so he must not lose his composure.

Zheng Yong thought so, trying to calm himself down, and saw Xu Yumin staring at him.

"Are you the scapegoat, the new owner of the resort?"

“…”

Zheng Yong almost staggered and glared fiercely at the idiot Xu Yumin. If the live broadcast hadn't been going on, he would have left her completely speechless.
