Shi Yao shielded his aunt. He had disliked Li Han for a long time, and it was because of this woman's appearance that Si Jiuyin stopped caring about Qinqin.
He hardened his expression, looking like a thug: "This area is not under your nursing home's jurisdiction. Everyone earns their money through their own abilities!"
"Since you have the ability to steal Qinqin's mother, then let's compete fairly to attract customers based on our abilities."
[The Shi family has taken advantage of Li Han's popularity, and they're still so arrogant. I don't understand.]
[It was really brave of Shi Yao to trespass on Si Jiuyin's territory! He's standing up for He Qinqin and Si Jiuyin, and I admire him!]
[Brother Shiyao is also very business-minded; he and our Sister He Qinqin are a match made in heaven!]
At this moment, Si Jiuyin walked over, glanced at Shi Yao in a light tone, and said, "First of all, let me make one thing clear: He Qinqin gave up everything in the Si family on her own, not by taking it away as you claim."
"If anyone was taken away, it was you who took He Qinqin from me. You've been scheming to get close to her since high school."
Si Jiuyin gave Li Han a reassuring look.
Seeing the interaction between Si Jiuyin and Li Han, Shi Yao felt that there was a conspiracy between the two. He licked his cheek with his tongue and said, "You can't just bully us ordinary people because you have the backing of the Si Group!"
Li Han remained calm and composed: "Did I send anyone to chase you away?"
"I only said two sentences, and I think the content and attitude were polite, and I was trying to give you a friendly reminder."
"Your paranoid and overreacting behavior is truly baffling."
Shi Yanping snorted coldly: "I know you all look down on people. I'm just trying to reason with you. I'm an elder, I've seen more than you've ever had a meal, and you don't understand respect for elders at all."
“You said you want to be reasonable, so I will be reasonable.” Li Han took out a brochure for the Mi Village Nursing Home. “Firstly, your brochure does not show any official approval documents. Moreover, you said this project is newly launched, but the relevant information I searched shows that the Mi Village nursing home project was approved, then suddenly stopped, and now it has been restarted without showing any latest documents. Its reliability is questionable. There is only a single sentence that it has received strong support from all parties.”
Upon hearing this, Luo Shuang quickly replied, "It's quite common for projects to be paused for a period of time before being restarted."
Li Han was not taken by Luo Shuang.
Instead of being misled by vague and misleading statements, she said firmly, "So why can't the latest document approvals be found online?"
Li Han continued, "Secondly, the Mi Village area is located on a windward slope, which often produces orographic rainfall, resulting in a humid climate for extended periods."
"Many elderly people experience knee pain and various joint pains when it rains, and prolonged rainy weather can easily lead to depression."
Li Han spoke clearly and logically, with all the evidence in her words, making her words convincing. Originally, people thought that Shi Yanping's family seemed kind and down-to-earth, but they were all wary of her.
When Shi Yao heard Li Han mention "orographic rain" and "windward slope," he was completely bewildered, feeling as if he were listening to gibberish: "Don't show off here. Just because you're a student from a top university doesn't mean you're so great, right?"
A high school student who was accompanying his grandparents to visit the nursing home muttered, "This is high school geography content."
Shi Yao's arrogant expression froze for a moment, but fortunately, he was thick-skinned and pretended not to hear.
[Judging from Li Han and Shi Yao's speeches, the difference between those who have received an education and those who haven't is immediately apparent.]
[Shi Yao is only slightly handsome; otherwise, if he were just average-looking, he'd really be a lazy, good-for-nothing gigolo.]
Shi Yanping wanted to take over from Shi Yao and deliver a crazy output, but she always felt guilty and uneasy when she looked at her superior Jiu Yin.
Today, Shi Yanping has already added quite a few people's contact information and arranged to take them to visit the sites. She decided to stop while she was ahead.
"As you can all see, the person in charge of this 'Honest Nursing Home' is targeting us. We won't say much more today. If you're interested, please contact me for an on-site inspection. It includes meals and accommodation in a four-star hotel!"
Shi Yao and his group of four slunk away.
As Shi Yao passed by Li Han, he whispered threats in her ear, "Just you wait, the faster you climb and the higher you stand, the harder you'll fall."
Seeing that none of them were listening, Li Han shook her head helplessly.
"Mom, I'm sorry that you had to run into this situation as soon as you arrived today."
"It's okay, you handled it very well."
The mother and daughter walked into the Orange Heart Nursing Home together.

Compared to Li Han's fulfilling life, He Qinqin's life seemed much more monotonous.
After work, she took the documents she needed to finish and went home. Once home, she cooked and did laundry.
He Qinqin wanted to gain Shi Yanping's approval, so she took the initiative to cook dinner every day. However, since no one in the family bought groceries, He Qinqin used her own salary to buy them.
Lacking life experience, He Qinqin wouldn't be good at budgeting. In fact, if she followed the normal path, she wouldn't need to worry about budgeting at all.
I still buy things according to my previous knowledge. I go to the high-end imported supermarkets I used to frequent. The beef is imported from Australia, and the vegetables are organic. A single trip to the supermarket costs nearly a thousand yuan, and the things I buy are not even enough to last three days.
Today, He Qinqin returned from buying a bowl of vegetables with an unusually solemn expression.
She received a quarterly performance evaluation form, which showed her ranking at the bottom of the department's overall popularity ranking for the month. This immediately dragged down her quarterly performance evaluation.
It turns out that she had a regular monthly financial interview with a business tycoon, and Li Han, an intern, helped her write various excellent articles and reports, so she was never at the bottom of the performance evaluation list.
Although New Star TV does not implement a bottom-ranking elimination system, poor quarterly performance will result in job reassignment, which means a decrease in salary and may even lead to busier work and a less respectable job.
She's a reporter who rose to fame through the show. If she loses her journalistic identity, wouldn't she become a laughingstock online? She'd definitely lose a lot of fans, and how would she earn money through advertising on platforms like Weibo after the show ends?
She insisted on doing another long-form interview to try and improve her performance score at the last minute.
He Qinqin thought of the person in charge of the Lexiang Group's Ledaojia takeaway business whom she had contacted for Zhao Jiao.
She doesn't have as many resources or a voice as she used to, but isn't the workplace a place where you can fight for things?
At this moment, Shi Yao's family returned. Seeing He Qinqin already busy in the kitchen, Shi Yanping gave Shi Xin, who was waiting for them to return to report on the investment investigation, a smug look.
