Chapter 150 The Fake Daughter of a Wealthy Family 16
"This phase has been completed... The whole project should be completed earlier than expected. If nothing unexpected happens, it should be ready for use early next year."
"Well, don't rush the deadline. You must first ensure the quality. It's not easy to build a good reputation, but it takes only one day to destroy it."
Zhao Tingyi wore a safety helmet and only a light blue shirt on his upper body. The cuffs were casually lifted up, revealing a piece of wheat-colored skin, with distinct muscles and a sense of power.
July and August are the hottest time of the year. With the scorching sun overhead, his back was soaked with sweat and his handsome face was sunburned red.
Someone handed Zhao Tingyi a bottle of mineral water. He unscrewed it and drank half of it in one breath. Then he continued to lead a group of people to shuttle back and forth on the busy but not chaotic construction site, checking the progress of the project and inspecting its quality.
Five years have passed, and the ruffian boy has grown into a young man with a strong aura. The accumulation of wealth and the improvement of social status have made him seem reborn.
His eyes and eyebrows show the confidence and ambition of a successful person, but if you talk to him for a few more sentences, you will find that he is actually very calm.
He seemed to know his goal clearly, and was not confused by the prosperity in front of him. He remained sober and self-controlled.
Such a man is undoubtedly very attractive. He is tall and strong, with a cold and handsome face, and the lines that are faintly visible under his shirt make people's blood boil.
When a perfect body meets a perfect face, and if it is also blessed with money, few people can resist it.
When Xu Jiana, who was listening to Xu Wen's chatter with an impatient look on her face, saw Zhao Tingyi turning around, her eyes suddenly lit up.
"Brother Tingyi!"
She didn't care about the sun anymore, she trotted forward in her high heels, stretched out her hand to pull his sleeve: "Brother Tingyi, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to see you here!"
Zhao Tingyi frowned slightly, avoiding her touch, with a somewhat cold expression:
"Why are you here? Aren't outsiders allowed to enter the construction site at will?"
Xu Wen scratched his head awkwardly:
“I’m sorry, Brother Zhao, I didn’t know she was coming… Don’t worry, this is a special case, there won’t be a next time!
He pulled over Xu Jiana who was still trying to speak and glared at her fiercely, what a troublesome cousin!
He hangs out with a bunch of gangsters and girls all day long, doesn't go to school, and his grades are terrible. No one knows what he does outside, but he still spends money like crazy.
Last time, my second aunt even said that she spent several thousand yuan a month! Why would a high school student spend so much money?
She just relies on the fact that she is the only daughter in the family and her uncle and aunt love her so much that they allow her to squander money. Otherwise, if she were to go to another family, she would definitely be beaten and cheated on!
Xu Wen couldn't stand it, but after all, she wasn't his biological sister, and he couldn't say much since they lived in the same room. Who would have thought that she would come to the construction site to ask him for money without even saying hello!
No, why do you feel so confident to ask for money from a cousin you don't even know very well? !
There had been conflicts between the two families in their early years. At that time, my second uncle and second aunt both had jobs, and their family conditions were much better than theirs. They had always looked down on their poor relatives.
Back then, Xu Wen had good grades and his teachers said he had a good chance of getting into university, but his family simply couldn't afford the tuition. His parents had no choice but to borrow money from his second uncle, promising to pay him back double when he passed the exam and was able to do so.
But what did the second uncle and second aunt do? Not only did they not lend a penny, but they also ridiculed the three of them.
What about "If you can't afford it, don't study. It's just a waste of time..." "My family doesn't have any extra money to lend you. We still have Nana to support."
"Don't listen to the teachers' nonsense. They are just trying to earn tuition fees. With your IQ, your grades are limited!"
His parents were almost pissed off! Xu Wen was young and hot-tempered at the time. After being scolded, he immediately said he would not study anymore and slammed the door and left.
His mother cried for several days at home, and he finally dropped out of school. Then he met Zhao Tingyi by chance, and they worked odd jobs together to get by, until that year...
His luck turned for the better. Zhao Tingyi formed a construction team and started contracting projects. Within two years, the pockets of those who had worked with him at the beginning became fatter, and many of them bought cars and houses.
Xu Wen also returned to his rural hometown and rebuilt a three-story house with extremely luxurious decoration. He also hired an aunt from the same village for his parents, who was responsible for cleaning and cooking.
Who wouldn't say he's made it now? Every time he goes back home, there are countless people who take the opportunity to talk to him, most of whom want him to take them with him.
After Xu Wen asked Zhao Tingyi, he appropriately selected a few people with decent character and talents and brought them over, so as to help educate the fellow villagers and allow his parents to live more comfortably in the village.
Ever since he became rich, all the relatives and friends who used to ignore him have come to him, including his second uncle and aunt.
The change in his face was so fast that even Sichuan Opera's face-changing was not as fast as theirs! There was no more contempt and disgust as before, but only flattery and good words.
"I knew Ah Wen was no ordinary person back then. He looked very smart since he was young! As expected, he has become rich! It is said that my eldest brother and his wife are blessed. Our family is not like us. We only have one daughter. She will belong to another family in the future..."
But what happened cannot be forgotten by just a few nice words. Xu Wen has not forgotten the humiliation he felt at that time!
It's just that his parents, out of respect for their relatives, still visit them during the holidays, but there are no longer any closer relatives.
Then Xu Wen heard from his fellow villagers who came out with him:
"Your second uncle and second aunt are saying bad things about your family everywhere in the village, saying that you no longer recognize your poor relatives now that you are rich... and that a country chicken can never become a phoenix even if it flies to a tree... Why are you so proud? Aren't you still following others to pick up leftover bones?"
Xu Wen was so angry that he almost fell backwards. What do you think we should do with such a person? !
He went home immediately and got angry, and didn't allow his parents to associate with that family anymore. But that family was thick-skinned, and they didn't feel embarrassed at all when they gave him the cold shoulder. They ate and drank as usual, and then took a bunch of things and left.
Xu Wen originally thought that his uncle and aunt were already weird enough, but he didn't expect that their daughter would be even better than them. She ran over and said:
"Brother, I have no money. Can you give me some? Um... give me 5,000 first. I don't want more. If it's not enough, you can give me more."
Give it to you? I gave you face, right?!
Xu Wen's face and eyes were filled with anger: "You should go back first. I have no money. If you need money, ask your own parents for it. The law does not stipulate that I have the obligation to take care of my cousin from the next room."
Xu Jiana didn't expect him to say this in front of these people. She quickly glanced at Zhao Tingyi, who had no emotion, and pulled the corners of her mouth stiffly:
"Brother! What are you talking about! Our two families are so close... I was just joking with you, I didn't really want to ask you for money!"
If she doesn't want to give it to you, then don't give it to her. Do you think she cares about it? Pah! If it wasn't for... for him, would she be willing to come to this dirty and messy construction site?
However, she was really lucky, she met him the first time she came! Her mother was right, she was born to be a rich wife!
Xu Jiana took Xu Wen's arm without hesitation, but Zhao Tingyi was looking at her:
"Brother Tingyi, it's rare to meet you, let's go eat together? My brother just said that he hasn't been able to spend some time with you."
Xu Wen: …
You find it quite convenient to use me?
Maybe it was because the weather was too hot. After several rounds of pestering, Xu Wen ran out of patience. He pushed Xu Jiana away and pulled her away:
"I'll take you out!"
You also have to say hello to the gatekeeper and don't let her in!
"I don't!"
Xu Jiana also got angry. Who do you think you are? My parents didn't treat me like this! She kicked Xu Wen's calf hard. Xu Wen screamed in pain. How could it hurt so much to be kicked by these high heels?
Zhao Tingyi looked indifferent as he watched them fighting. If Xu Wen had not been his brother for many years and had followed him from the beginning, he would have had both of them thrown out at this moment!
He turned around and walked out as if he saw nothing. His inspection was almost over and it was time to go back to the company as he had a meeting in the afternoon.
"Brother Tingyi!"
Seeing that he was about to leave, Xu Jiana no longer cared about Xu Wen and hurriedly chased after him:
"Brother Tingyi, are you leaving now? Can you give me a ride? All my money was stolen, so I came to my brother for help... This place is too remote, and there is no taxi..."
Zhao Tingyi pretended not to hear, and the secretary dutifully stood in front of Xu Jiana to prevent her from touching him.
As the group walked out of the construction site gate, they saw a white Porsche in front of the gate in addition to Zhao Tingyi's black car.
The smooth lines of the car made the men following Zhao Tingyi's eyes sparkle:
"Wow, that's cool!"
“Is there any car model like this in China?
"Who is this? So awesome? It's not just about being rich, it also requires connections to get in..."
Zhao Tingyi retracted his gaze, his eyes calm and still, it didn't matter to him who it was. He was about to continue walking towards his car, when he saw the door of the Porsche's driver's seat was pushed open, and a foreign woman with blond hair, white skin, a high nose bridge, and deep eye sockets came down?
Zhao Tingyi stopped for some unknown reason and stared straight at that place.
Madge glanced at him, opened the parasol, opened the back door, and carefully lifted the umbrella over the roof of the car.
As everyone saw, a jade-white leg slowly stepped out, followed by a slender waist wrapped in a floral dress and a head of smooth black hair.
Su Youran turned her head, and her eyes, like colored glass beads, accurately fell on Zhao Tingyi, and then she slowly smiled:
"But it took me a long time to find it."
