Chapter 168 Strange, he actually complained that he ignored him.



"Excuse me, Mr. Jing, the contract was signed by me and Manager Leng's people. If there are any changes to the landlord's side, please have both of you sign the documents in front of me, or I can sign a contract with you to void the other contract."

Li Ying's composed and humble demeanor impressed Jing Chi.

“Li Ying, I am the true heir of the Jing family.”

Li Ying smiled brightly: "I don't care who the heir of the Jing family is. I just need to clarify one thing: who will I legally pay my rent to in the future?"

This woman is really not easy to fool.

"Fine, since you insist on having Leng Yan come and witness this, then fine, I'll have him come over and show you who the master of the Jing family is!" Jing Chi said, then turned and left.

Looking at Jing Chi's retreating figure, Sang Zhi couldn't help but sigh, "He is very similar to Ye Jingchi, but his personality is just too pathetic."

They were used to Ye Jingchi's cold and serious side, so seeing this playboy-like man in front of them was a huge shock.

"Do you still think he is Ye Jingchi?" Li Ying turned to ask Sang Zhi.

Sang Zhi gave an awkward smile.

Perhaps there really are people in this world who look very alike.

In the afternoon, Li Ying was informed that the landlord had changed and asked her to go to the landlord's office to sign a new contract.

Li Ying thought the man named Jing Chi was very immature, but since this matter concerned her future business, she had no choice but to obediently sign the contract.

The manager who came to sign the contract last time was surnamed Liu. This time, Manager Liu was not there; only Jing Chi and Leng Yan were in the office.

Leng Yan sat upright behind his desk, while Jing Chi leaned back on the sofa, legs crossed, looking completely relaxed and carefree—a typical good-for-nothing playboy.

"You're here?" Leng Yan picked up a contract and handed it to Li Ying. He still had that icy face, but his voice wasn't as cold as before.

“From now on, this land will be managed by Young Master Jing, and he will also collect the rent from your clinic. This is a change of agreement.”

Jing Chi smiled at Li Ying: "Well, now you know who your landlord is, right?"

Li Ying was too lazy to argue with this kind of person. She took the amendment agreement and looked at it. It was almost the same as the content she had signed before.

Li Ying signed and stamped the document, completing the formalities, and then took her leave.

"etc!"

Jing Chi chased after him, "I'm your landlord now, why are you ignoring me?"

Li Ying stopped and turned to face Jing Chi. In a daze, she seemed to see Ye Jingchi right in front of her.

Li Ying quickly snapped out of her chaotic thoughts, looked at Jing Chi, who looked exactly like Ye Jingchi in both appearance and height, only his personality was different, and smiled coldly: "You are my landlord, I pay you rent, our relationship is that of a tenant and employer, why should I have to pay attention to you?"

Jing Chi also felt confused, rubbing his nose: "I'm your landlord, you should greet me more often and interact with me. Maybe if I'm in a good mood, I can reduce your rent?"

ridiculous!

"No need for that. Since I'm going to open a clinic, I'm not short of money."

Li Ying didn't give Jing Chi a chance to speak again and turned to leave.

Jing Chi was very displeased: "What kind of attitude is this woman? I'm being disrespectful by speaking to her! And she still dares to give me attitude?"

"Young Master Jing, I advise you not to provoke her!" Leng Yan stood at the office door with his arms crossed, his gaze icy and sinister.

"What, you like her?"

Leng Yan's eyes grew even colder, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly: "You need to know what 'first come, first served' means."

Jing Chi was furious: "You! Fine, I'll see what you're capable of in pursuing her!"

After saying that, he stormed out in a rage.

Leng Yan narrowed his eyes slightly, took out a cigarette case, pulled out a cigarette, lit it, put it to his lips, took a drag, and exhaled.

No one can take anything from his cold banquet!

The Dragon Boat Festival is approaching, and Sangzhi made some sachets with mugwort for everyone to wear.

The sachet given to Li Ting was embroidered with mandarin ducks, while the others' sachets were decorated with flowers and plants.

What happened to your hand?

Li Ying noticed that Sang Zhi's fingers were swollen and asked her what was wrong.

"I was rushing to make some sachets for everyone these past few days, but who knew needlework would be so difficult? My fingers are all swollen."

Li Ying picked up the embroidered sachet on the table and pursed her lips: "This is for my second brother, right?"

Sang Zhi nodded: "Do you think he likes it or not?"

“He will definitely like her, but Sang Zhi, you should be prepared. My second brother is a blockhead and doesn’t understand.” Li Ying had told her second brother about Sang Zhi’s feelings more than once, but her second brother only said one thing: Sang Zhi is Commander Jing’s girlfriend.

"I know, although I'd like to do something a little something extra for the Dragon Boat Festival, is that alright?" Sang Zhi said boldly.

"Use something drastic? You mean drug my second brother and then force him into marriage?"

Sang Zhi blushed slightly, looking quite embarrassed: "Is it okay?"

Li Ying rubbed her chin: "It's not impossible to say that. My second brother is a very pragmatic person. If he really does something to you, he will definitely take responsibility to the end."

"I'm still a little worried that he might blame me later!"

Li Ying patted Sang Zhi's shoulder: "No, I know my second brother. He'll blame himself, not you."

"Then we'll say this method is feasible."

Li Ying agreed: "It's feasible!"

If I don't put some pressure on my second brother, he won't get together with Sang Zhi.

"Yingying, a lot of people have been buying realgar powder to make wine lately. Do you think we should get some more realgar?"

“Sang Zhi, we don’t use the realgar powder in our shop to make wine.”

Sang Zhi nodded: "I understand. You're worried about something happening while drinking?"

"Well, not everyone can drink realgar wine. If someone has a weak constitution, they might get poisoned, and then we won't be able to explain ourselves. It's best to avoid such trouble if possible."

You're saying that realgar wine can cause poisoning?

Li Ying looked up and saw Leng Yan striding towards her.

"Manager Leng, are you injured again? Have you come to get some medicine?"

"There's no need to curse me. My life has been going well lately, without any setbacks. I just have a favor to ask, and I wonder if Miss Li Ying would be willing to grant it?"

Leng Yan was already serious, and his solemn seriousness made people feel that he might make some kind of request to commit murder or arson.

"Go ahead, I'll listen first."

"Can I spend Dragon Boat Festival with you?"

What?

Li Ying and Sang Zhi exchanged a glance, their faces full of surprise.

This demand is even more outrageous than murder and arson!

"Manager Leng..."

“I spent the Dragon Boat Festival with my aunt before, but now that Jing Chi is back, my aunt wants to spend this Dragon Boat Festival with her son.”

When Leng Yan said these words, there was a hint of bitterness in his voice.

You can tell from his voice that he longs for family affection.

"Your adoptive parents..."

"They gave me food and kept me alive. I promise to take care of them in their old age. I can't do anything else," Leng Yan told the truth.

It could also be said that he did not have a good life in his adoptive parents' home.

"Dr. Li, is that alright?"
