After half an hour of negotiation, Zhao Shi finally gave in and signed the agreement.
"Boss Yun, if it was anyone else, I would have to think carefully about it, but Boss Yun is different. The first time I saw Boss Yun, I knew he was someone who could do great things."
Yun Shixian put away the agreement and shook hands with the other party with a smile. "Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for your appreciation and trust. Mr. Zhao, please rest assured. I guarantee with my personal integrity that your investment will be worth it."
"Okay, then I'll be waiting for your good news."
“It’s been a pleasure working with you.”
After the greetings, Yun Shixian handed the room key to Zhao Shi and said, "Mr. Zhao, it's dark and the road is long. You are not familiar with Jiang City. It's better not to go back to the hotel you booked. I have arranged a room for you upstairs. You should have a good rest first. I will pick you up to go to the construction site tomorrow."
Zhao Shi took the key and smiled so much that his mouth almost reached his ears.
"Okay, then I won't let Mr. Yun down."
"Mr. Zhao, you're welcome. I'll take you upstairs."
"No, I can go up by myself."
The moment Yun Yao heard the door lock being turned, her heart sank suddenly.
She closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, the gloom in her eyes had completely disappeared, leaving only haziness and confusion.
"Mr. Zhao, why is it you?"
Yun Yao sat on the bed with the quilt wrapped around her, a thin silk suspender hanging on her frail shoulders, her flushed face full of panic and shyness, like a little rabbit that had strayed into a wolf's den, making Zhao Shi so itchy that he wanted to pounce on her immediately.
"Xiao Yao, your dad is drunk and went home to sleep first. He was worried about you, so he asked me to come up and check on you." As he spoke, he walked towards her.
Yun Yao pretended to know nothing and tilted her face slightly, revealing her slender neck.
"Mr. Zhao, is my dad okay?"
"Don't worry, he and I have reached a cooperation agreement, he was in a good mood and had a few drinks, he will be fine after he goes home and sleeps for a night."
Yun Yao patted her chest and said, "That's good."
Yun Yao was wearing a burgundy suspender pajamas. Her biggest flaw was her dark skin, and this color made her look whiter. The originally dark color, under the light and the outfit, made her look even more charming.
Zhao Shi sat down on the bed, looking at her body with lustful eyes, and pressed his fat body towards her, "Xiaoyao, you are so beautiful. I was fascinated by you the first time I saw you..."
Maybe it was because he smoked too much, Zhao Shi had a mouth full of yellow teeth and he smelled terrible when he opened his mouth to speak.
Yun Yao resisted the urge to vomit, and stretched out her hand to support the other person's chest, "Boss Zhao, please don't do this..."
"Xiaoyao, I really like you. As long as you obey me, I will give you whatever you want..."

"…The waterfall drops three thousand feet straight down, and it looks like the Milky Way falling from the sky."
After listening to Ling Chunhua reciting the newly learned ancient poem, Yun Mo touched her head with satisfaction and said, "You read very well. Read it a few more times and try to memorize it. Auntie will come in and test you later."
"Yeah, okay."
Yun Mo came to the door of the warehouse and saw Ling Chuan sitting at the black lacquered desk doing the accounts.
Under the warm yellow light, the man has deep eyebrows, a high nose bridge, and a smooth and sharp jawline that makes his profile look three-dimensional and handsome.
Yun Mo was fascinated for a moment, until Ling Chuan noticed something and looked in her direction.
The moment he saw her, a bright color suddenly appeared in the man's originally dark eyes.
"Wife, do you have something to ask me?"
Ling Chuan put down what he was doing, stood up and walked towards her quickly.
Yun Mo felt a little uncomfortable seeing the man being so serious.
"Well, I called my mom this afternoon, and I mentioned you to her."
Ling Chuan was stunned, and his expression became visibly nervous, "Mom, did she say anything?"
Seeing the man nervous, Yun Mo calmed down and teased him, "Mom is very angry and won't let me take you back."
Seeing the man staring at her blankly, pursing his lips and not saying anything for a long time, Yun Mo realized that this joke seemed a little too much. She was about to explain, but the other party spoke first.
Looking at the man's sincere face, Yun Mo felt a warm feeling flowing in her heart.
"You're lying. Mom likes you very much and asked me to take you back home to celebrate the New Year during the winter break."
Ling Chuan's frustration was swept away, and even his eyes brightened, "Really?"
"It's a lie."
After saying this, Yun Mo turned and left.
Ling Chuan followed unwillingly, "Wife, is what you just said true?"
"I just said so many things, which one are you asking about?"
"That's right, you said mom likes me very much..."
Ling Chuan was obviously shy and stopped talking halfway through.
Yun Mo glanced at him and laughed secretly in her heart, "Really? My mom asked us to buy the tickets and call home first, and she will come to pick us up."
"good!"
Seeing the joy on the man's face, Yun Mo was also infected, and the corners of her mouth rose uncontrollably.

Yun Yao returned home and bumped into Jiang Yu who was about to go out.
"mom."
Jiang Yu walked past her as if she were a piece of air, without paying any attention to her.
Yun Yao secretly clenched her palms, then turned around and went upstairs to her room.
In the mirror, the young body was covered with various pinch marks and bite marks, looking mottled and horrible.
All of this was done by Zhao Shi last night.
An old pervert like Zhao Shi has played with more women than he has eaten, and he enjoys torturing women in bed. Yun Yao almost lost half her life.
Fortunately, her humiliation was not in vain.
Zhao Shi promised to help her invest in a beauty salon in the provincial capital. In return, she would obey Zhao Shi in the future.

"Mrs. Yun is here."
When they saw Jiang Yu, several ladies who had arrived earlier cast strange and sympathetic looks at her.
The upper-class circle in Jiang City is so small, how could Yun Shixian's little deeds be hidden from everyone's eyes and ears.
Of course Jiang Yu knew how these people were laughing at her behind her back, but she had to force a smile and greet each of them.
"Let me tell you something. I played mahjong with Mrs. Yuan a while ago. You didn't see the emerald jade bracelet on Mrs. Yuan's hand. It was so green that it was dripping with oil. I heard that she spent tens of thousands of dollars to buy it.
In the hands of people like us, such good things would be kept at home as treasures, and we would not want to bump them at all. But some people just treat it as a gadget and wear it while playing mahjong. I was terrified to see it, for fear that it would be damaged. "
Jiang Yu drank his tea absentmindedly, not paying much attention to everyone's idle chatter.
The fact that her husband had a mistress and an illegitimate child was enough to hurt her heart, and now he was shielding her eldest daughter and poisoning her younger daughter for personal gain. Jiang Yu was now disheartened and felt that life was meaningless.
If she hadn't been too bored staying at home alone, she wouldn't have come to today's party.
"Come to think of it, the emerald bracelet on Mrs. Yuan's hand looks quite similar to the one that Mrs. Yun wore before."
When Jiang Yu heard someone mention her, she looked up and smiled, and something suddenly flashed through her mind.
