Chapter Eight: What a Meal



Qiao Xia said no more, took the liability waiver from her hand, signed it, and then stormed out, saying, "I want to see what kind of car would cost twenty million just to bump into?"

Qiao Xia saw the white Porsche as she went out and laughed in anger, "Are you out of your mind? Twenty million is enough to buy a new one. Tell him you'll buy this car for twenty million. If it works out, great; if not, get lost."

The young policewoman's eyes were still sparkling. At this moment, she naturally did whatever Qiao Xia said. Fortunately, the person on the other end of the phone was also aware of the situation and promptly sold the car for 20 million yuan.

With the police involved, the two completed the car sale paperwork very quickly.

Just then, the saleswoman called, her voice trembling with tears, bringing Qiao Xia's already irritable mood to its peak.

After taking the Porsche owner's key left at the police station, Qiao Xia stepped on the gas and drove towards City A.

On the way, Qiao Zhaoxing's resistance was futile, so he tightened his seatbelt and silently hugged the six furry children.

The saleswoman arranged to meet at Qiao Palace. As soon as Qiao Xia got out of the car, she wiped away her tears and ran to greet her, "Miss Qiao, you've finally arrived."

Qiao Xia suppressed her anger, "What exactly happened?"

The saleswoman stepped aside, and a chubby middle-aged man walked past Qiao Xia to shake hands with Qiao Zhaoxing. "Mr. Qiao, I am Du Feng, the sales director of Mu's Real Estate. I'm really sorry to have troubled you to make this trip."

Qiao Zhaoxing cautiously stepped behind Qiao Xia. "My daughter made the decision about buying the house. You can talk to her about anything."

Du Feng then turned his gaze to Qiao Xia, his expression becoming subtle. "Miss Qiao is truly a young and promising woman."

That kind of gaze disgusted Qiao Xia, and she asked bluntly, "What is it?"

Du Feng's lips curled into a stern expression, clearly displeased. He said in a nonchalant tone, "Our new employee is inexperienced and hasn't figured out some things. This Qiao Palace in front of you has already been sold."

"You're talking nonsense!" The saleswoman trembled slightly, clenched her fists, and after being glared at by Du Feng, she could only shut her mouth unwillingly, clearly daring not to speak out against her anger.

Qiao Xia took a deep breath, raised an eyebrow and said, "I see. Things are done in a first-come, first-served manner. Since someone bought it before me, I can't take what they want."

Du Feng gave a thumbs up and said sarcastically, "I knew Miss Qiao was a reasonable person."

Qiao Xia put on sunglasses. "I hope you can transfer the penalty for breach of contract to my account within a week."

Du Feng frowned. "What breach of contract penalty?"

Qiao Xia sneered, "Mu's Real Estate is the largest real estate developer in the country. Surely they know that they have to pay double the deposit if they breach the contract?"

Qiao Xia crossed her arms and said, “This house is priced at 1.2 billion. I choose to buy it in full. I will pay the full amount after the contract is finalized. I have already paid 900 million before coming here. However, according to the rule that the deposit cannot exceed 20% of the total purchase price, my deposit will be recognized as 240 million. That is to say, your Mu family will have to compensate me 240 million.”

Du Feng stood frozen in place, his face turning extremely ugly.

"Wait." Seeing that Qiao Xia was about to leave, he seemed to find his voice again. He looked at the saleswoman next to him, his eyes rolling, and said in a sinister tone, "Miss Qiao, I already said that it was a new employee who was ignorant. Please be lenient."

"The problem lies with you. My demand to act according to the contract is perfectly reasonable, isn't it?"

“It makes sense, of course it makes sense.” Du Feng said with a forced smile, “I just felt a little sorry for the young girl who has to bear a debt of 240 million at such a young age.”

The saleswoman looked at Du Feng in shock and disbelief, and then instinctively asked Qiao Xia for help.

Qiao Xia remained unmoved. "That's your company's business. We've already signed the purchase contract. Your signature and the legal representative's seal are all there. The court will decide who should pay the 240 million yuan penalty."

"stop!"

He tried to grab Qiao Xia, but six dogs, led by a Border Collie, instantly surrounded him. The Border Collie even turned around to ask for praise.

Six dogs away, Du Feng's expression was sinister. "Miss Qiao, we will definitely refund every penny you paid. I will also personally cover any handling fees incurred. There's no need to be so ruthless."

Du Feng's heart was bleeding as he said these words.

Qiao Palace is worth 1.2 billion yuan. Very few people can come up with such a large amount of cash flow at once. In order to finalize this deal as soon as possible, the company has already gone through a lot of procedures, but the resulting taxes are not a small amount.

Once he pays this money, his deal will be considered a complete waste.

But this money has to be paid out. Even for the Mu family, 240 million is not a small amount. One salesperson can't handle this mess; he might have to take the blame.

If the higher-ups found out about this, they would definitely fire him without hesitation, and Du Feng had no doubt about that.

Qiao Xia squatted down, patted the Border Collie's head, took the rope from Qiao Zhaoxing's hand, and turned to leave.

Seeing that she was unmoved by his words, Du Feng angrily retorted, "Just because I call you Miss Qiao, you think you're someone important? This is a very complicated situation. You'd better call your sugar daddy and ask him first, lest you offend someone without realizing it and end up crying to no one after being dumped!"

Qiao Xia laughed angrily, "This house is the ancestral home of my Qiao family. Instead of worrying about me, you should think about how to pay the 240 million yuan penalty for breach of contract."

"Or you could just add 240 million to the price, but I don't know if the buyers behind you can afford it?"

"Of course I can afford it." Shen Shuoyan, leaning on his cane and sporting a pig-headed face, stood arrogantly in front of Qiao Xia.

Qiao Xia was not surprised at all. The Qiao family's old mansion had nine floors above and below ground and more than 500 rooms. Even after the Qiao family declared bankruptcy, no one wanted to buy it. Yet, she was intercepted right after paying the money, and this happened after she met the Shen siblings. She knew that such a coincidence was impossible.

Qiao Xia scoffed, "Can you afford it? With your company that went bankrupt after only two months? You're not going to be crying and begging Shen Shuoyu to clean up your mess again, are you?"

"None of your business!" Shen Shuoyan's face flushed red. "I am the heir of the Shen family. The entire Shen family will belong to me in the future. What is Shen Shuoyu anyway!"

Qiao Xia nodded perfunctorily, "I wish you a speedy inheritance of the family fortune, the heir."

"Stop right there!" Shen Shuoyan jumped up and said, "I know the Qiao family's old house is of great significance to you. If you beg me, I will give it to you. Otherwise, I will blow it to smithereens after I buy it."

He was met with Qiao Xia's cold laughter and the sound of the car lock opening. Noticing the white Porsche, Shen Shuoyan jumped even more violently.

He snatched the keys from Qiao Xia's hand. "How did you get Mu San's car? Why won't you beg me? Tell me! When did you two get together?"
