"No, I don't like Dad's type..."
Mom laughed even harder, "Hehe, it seems many of the Tong brothers are going to be heartbroken!"
The implication is that many young men in Tongjia Village have a crush on Tong Xiaohuai.
Tong Xiaohuai didn't care about her mother's words, but now that she thinks about it, she can't help but ask herself, what kind of boy do I like?
Actually, strictly speaking, men like my dad are quite good.
But she felt that her father was only good as a father, and that someone else would be better to spend her life with.
But what exactly would it look like?
Tong Xiaohuai felt as if she had dug herself a deep pit, and the more she dug, the more terrifying and dark it became.
A voice inside her was reminding her not to dig any deeper, otherwise, the deeper she dug, the more painful it would be when she fell into the pit!
But a person's thoughts can't just stop. When a blurry image flashed through her mind, Tong Xiaohuai was so startled by it that she shuddered and dropped the remote control she was holding to the floor with a "thud".
Uncle Yuan, who had been walking around nearby, was startled by the noise and appeared out of nowhere, standing in front of her in the blink of an eye.
"Young Miss, are you alright?"
Tong Xiaohuai looked at Uncle Yuan strangely, then pointed to the remote control on the ground, "Uncle Yuan, I just dropped the remote control..."
Needless to say, Uncle Ming must have said something when he left, and Uncle Yuan's current reaction left Tong Xiaohuai both amused and exasperated.
Seeing that Uncle Yuan and Uncle Guan both looked very worried, Tong Xiaohuai felt embarrassed to stay in the living room any longer. She couldn't stand being treated like a patient and being guarded around like this. Their overly cautious manner made her feel like she couldn't breathe.
"Uncle Yuan, I'm a little tired. I'm going back to my room to read."
Under Uncle Yuan's worried gaze, Tong Xiaohuai felt like she was being pricked by a thorn in her side and hurriedly slipped back into her bedroom.
There was a huge pile of books in the bedroom. Tong Xiaohuai picked up a few at random and lay on the bed flipping through them.
These are all books I usually enjoy reading, but now no matter which one I pick up, they all seem utterly boring.
I picked up the remote and turned on the TV. Finally, there was some sound in the bedroom, making it feel less deserted.
That night, Tong Xiaohuai took sleeping pills for the first time in her life, although she only took half a pill.
As she expected, the next morning, when Uncle Ming counted the pills and found that half a pill was missing, his brows immediately furrowed.
He looked up at her with deep eyes, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he said nothing.
Seeing his hesitant expression, Tong Xiaohuai had no choice but to offer some words of advice.
"Uncle Ming, I'm really fine. How about you come with me this afternoon to see a traditional Chinese medicine doctor and get some medicine to help me recover?"
Tong Xiaohuai herself knew that this was not a solution, but everything has a cooling-off period. She was not strong enough to resist the invasion of certain thoughts with her willpower, so she had no choice but to resort to drugs.
Uncle Ming's expression brightened a bit. He made an appointment with the old Chinese medicine doctor in front of her, had breakfast with her, and repeatedly confirmed that there was nothing wrong with her health before leaving with her.
As for Yan Bo, he has been extremely busy these past few days ever since he met Tong Xiaohuai at the M-Zone.
The man, who was originally gentle and polite, has become somewhat gloomy and cold-faced in front of his subordinates these past few days.
The subordinates assumed that the boss's attitude was simply due to obstacles in the construction of the villa complex.
However, the assistant knew that everything regarding the villa complex had been resolved since the boss went on a ten-day business trip to S City. Many tasks had been completed, and all that was left was for the construction team to prepare the materials before they could begin construction.
"Third Young Master, you don't look well. Why don't you go back and rest for a while?"
The assistant dared to offer a word of advice to the boss, who had been working so hard these past two days that he had almost forgotten to eat and sleep.
Yan Bo looked up at him, paused for a moment, and asked, "Is that sauna on Yangchun Road currently putting its doors up for tender?"
The assistant was taken aback for a moment, "Huh?"
After a long pause, he finally realized, "I'll go and find out right away!"
With that, he put the documents in his hand on Yan Bo's desk and "rolled" back to his own office to inquire about the information.
Although he had never actually heard of the sauna on Yangchun Road, his intuition told him that the project owner cared a lot about it.
Knowing that his boss cared a lot, when he heard that there was indeed a sauna on Yangchun Road that was bidding for renovations, he was surprised and didn't know what to say.
"Mr. Di, why are you asking this? This isn't a big project, just a few floors. Do you have a familiar renovation company that wants to take on this business?"
Di Xu, Yan Bo's assistant, was also completely bewildered.
Right, Yanhuang Company is a real estate company, they don't do decoration, so why would the boss ask me to find out about this?
However, since he was able to be Yanbo's assistant, he must have had exceptional adaptability. Even though he was just as full of questions as the other person, he paused for a moment before naturally agreeing.
"That's right. I have a friend who owns a renovation company. He just finished a big project and is now free, so he asked me to see if there are any suitable projects for him to recommend."
Di Xu lied so smoothly that the people on the other end didn't suspect anything and promised to find out more about it before getting back to him.
So, about half an hour later, Di Xu knocked on the boss's office door with the sauna's renovation tender documents.
"Third Young Master, take a look, is this what you wanted?"
Yan Bo took the documents and looked through them carefully, neither confirming nor denying.
Di Xu stood patiently in front of the desk, confident that his boss would have more instructions for him.
Sure enough, after Yanbo finished reviewing the documents, he looked up at him and said, "Didn't a lot of decoration companies want to cooperate with us before? Pick one more and have their manager come to see me!"
Yanhuang Real Estate had already signed a letter of intent for cooperation with the largest decoration company in L City. Now that they've released this information, it's not hard to understand that they want to take over the sauna project.
However, there was one thing that Di Xu didn't quite understand: "Third Young Master, do we need to earn small profits from this kind of cooperation to help supplement the finances?"
Others might not know, but Di Xu, as the boss's assistant, knew exactly how strong Yanhuang Real Estate's financial resources were.
Even if the renovation company were owned by Yanhuang, the money that Yanhuang could make from the entire project, given the conditions offered by the sauna, would be nothing more than a drop in the ocean.
Yan Bo seemed oblivious to the doubt and speculation in Di Xu's words, and waved his hand firmly, saying...
"Send someone to see me by tomorrow. No exceptions!"
Having witnessed his boss's decisiveness, Di Xu dared not ask any more questions, simply acknowledged the order, and turned to do as instructed.
