Qian Duoduo led Peng Fei, A Biao, and others to Laiyang Company. Although her family was also in the construction industry, when she stepped into this company, she couldn't help but feel a sense of absurdity, as if this so-called Laiyang Company was just a joke.
As soon as he entered the gate, a female receptionist, dressed extremely casually and even somewhat sloppily, came up to him. She casually threw a document titled "Demolition" in front of Qian Duoduo and said expressionlessly, "Here, your house is a self-built house. The compensation documents from our company are all here. Hurry up and sign them to settle this."
Before Qian Duoduo could even reach for the document, Peng Fei had already taken it and placed it in front of him. He wanted to carefully examine the terms and details, but before he could do anything, the receptionist impatiently urged, "What are you dawdling for? What's there to see! Just sign it already. I've seen plenty of people like you!"
Faced with such an unreasonable attitude, Peng Fei did not get angry, but chose to ignore the other party. He steadily picked up the document, stood behind Qian Duoduo, and began to carefully read through it.
Before long, Peng Fei finished reading the three-page demolition document and keenly noticed numerous problems with the contract. Not only was it riddled with loopholes and irregularities, but the proposed compensation was also far below the standards set by the Yangcheng Development and Reform Commission.
He frowned slightly, turned to look at Qian Duoduo in front of him, and nodded, indicating, "Boss, this contract does indeed have a big problem."
Qian Duoduo nodded, stood up and said to Peng Fei, "Contact our legal team immediately and have them come over as soon as possible to negotiate with this company."
Peng Fei nodded.
The receptionist, seeing Qian Duoduo and his group about to leave, quickly gave a look to the men standing at the door, expecting them to display the same overbearing attitude they usually showed to those who came to sign documents. However, to her surprise and anger, these men stood rooted to the spot, motionless, simply watching as Qian Duoduo and his entourage walked out of the office lobby as if nothing had happened.
Seeing this, she was extremely anxious. She rushed to the door and confronted the man in the lead, demanding, "What's wrong with you? Are you blind? Didn't you see those people swaggering away?"
The leader glanced at her unhurriedly, a slight smirk playing on his lips, and said slowly, "Don't lose your temper! Do you know that woman has bodyguards behind her? Even if all ten or so of us attacked together, we probably wouldn't be a match for them. If I were to stupidly charge forward now, wouldn't I just be asking for trouble and getting beaten up? If you're so capable, go try it yourself. We're not going to do anything that stupid." With that, he crossed his arms, turned his head away, and ignored the furious woman.
The woman gritted her teeth in anger, stomped her foot hard, and roared furiously, "Fine! You bunch of cowards! I'll tell the boss everything about your performance today, and he'll teach you a lesson. Then, none of you will get a bonus!"
However, her threatening words were met with a chorus of eye-rolls from the security guards at the door. If it weren't for the fact that this woman was the boss's mistress, they wouldn't have bothered with her at all.
Qian Duoduo returned home, sat on the sofa, her brow furrowed, and kept replaying the events of the day in her mind. After some careful consideration, she picked up her phone and dialed Jiang Bohan's number.
"Beep...beep..." After a few rings, Jiang Bohan's familiar voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello, who is this?"
Qian Duoduo's steady voice rang out: "Uncle Jiang. It's me, Qian Duoduo."
Jiang Bohan said with a smile, "Why did you suddenly decide to call me, girl?"
Qian Duoduo took a deep breath and began to recount her experiences that day, from her initial contact with the Laiyang Company personnel to the flawed demolition documents they presented. She described everything in detail, and finally sighed, saying, "Uncle Jiang, I think that Laiyang Company must have someone backing them up, otherwise how could they dare to be so arrogant and domineering! With this flawed document, they think they can make me submit obediently, and even use force? That's just wishful thinking! Many of the families near my house who have already had their homes demolished were probably forced to sign these unequal agreements. This is clearly an infringement on other people's property!"
Jiang Bohan listened quietly to Qian Duoduo's account, his expression growing increasingly grave. After she finished speaking, he paused for a moment, then replied firmly, "Duoduo, this matter does sound complicated. Don't worry, I'll immediately arrange for people to investigate thoroughly and uncover the truth."
After hearing Jiang Bohan's words, Qian Duoduo felt a little more at ease. After hanging up the phone, she turned to look at Lu Yuan sitting on the other side of the sofa. She saw Lu Yuan quietly reading a book, with sunlight streaming through the window and falling on him, creating a beautiful scene.
Qian Duoduo slowly got up, walked over and sat down next to Lu Yuan. She gently reached out and took one of Lu Yuan's hands, saying softly, "Lu Yuan, I don't know why, but I feel like you've changed a lot these past two days." As she spoke, she looked up and stared directly at Lu Yuan's face, as if trying to find the answer in his expression.
Upon hearing Qian Duoduo's words, Lu Yuan was stunned and asked with a puzzled look, "What kind of change?"
Qian Duoduo stared intently at Lu Yuan and said softly, "You've only been in Guangzhou for two or three days, but I've already noticed that you have two gray hairs!"
Lu Yuan's heart skipped a beat, and a chill instantly ran down his spine. After all, he had just used his time-manipulation ability! Could it be true, as he feared, that using his time-manipulation ability and manipulating the flow of time was causing his body to slowly age? Thinking of this, Lu Yuan's face turned pale.
Qian Duoduo, who had been staring intently at Lu Yuan, naturally didn't miss the fleeting moment of stunned silence on his face. Her heart tightened, and she quickly reached out to gently stroke Lu Yuan's forehead, comforting him, "Yuanzi, I've waited for you for these past five years. Now that you've finally woken up, don't force yourself anymore. Just be the real you. Even if you can't go back to the lab to do those complex experiments like before, as long as you can stay by my side, watching our child grow up and growing old with our parents, that will be enough happiness and contentment for us."
