A burst of hearty laughter came from the other end of the line after Yan Xia finished.

Chen Bing had some admiration for Yan Xia.

He had only gotten the video this morning, and it had only been half an hour since it was sent out. Even though he had deliberately left some clues behind, Yan Xia was indeed capable to be able to find him so quickly.

Chen Bing couldn’t help but think back to the night before when he saw Yan Xia. She was wearing a casual tracksuit and her hair was tied into a ponytail. She looked clean and fresh, completely different from the messy state she had been in at the banquet.

When dealing with things, she did not hesitate and made quick decisions. She was indeed different from the group of soft, weak, and pretentious women around him. She also made people have the desire to conquer her.

She was truly an attractive woman. Chen Bing thought to himself as a determined smile appeared on his face.

“Young Madam Jiang is indeed a straightforward person,” he said. “Then I won’t beat around the bush. I can delete the video, but I want Jiang Huai to personally apologize to me.”

Chen Bing had already found out about Jiang Huai’s sudden departure last night. He had made this request to make things difficult for Yan Xia.

Yan Xia’s voice was emotionless as she coldly said, “It turns out that in Young Master Chen’s perception, it is the right thing to do to provoke a beautiful girl after getting drunk, get angry after being rejected, and fight when the bystanders stop him from stirring up trouble.”

“You!” Chen Bing did not expect Yan Xia to be so sharp-tongued, and with just a few words, she attributed the beating to his own actions. He slammed the table, stood up, and shouted at the phone.

Yan Xia remained unmoved and showed no fear. “Young Master Chen, don’t get angry. Why don’t you calm down and think about what conditions you can offer that will be more beneficial to you? I don’t think you’ve specially arranged this and asked me to call you just to have a war of words with me, right?”

Chen Bing laughed out of anger. “I knew that the Secretary Yan of President Jiang of the Jiang Corporation is not a simple person. You really live up to your name. I’ve underestimated you.”

Chen Bing no longer addressed Yan Xia as Mrs. Jiang. Instead, he called her Secretary Yan. He admired this woman from the bottom of her heart.

Chen Bing calmed down and sat back on the chair. “Of course it’s easy to discuss, but you have to let me see the sincerity of your Jiang Corporation. I’ll be waiting for you at the High Mountain Stream by 12 noon today.”

He paused. “If it’s past noon, don’t blame me for not waiting.”

“It’s a deal.” Yan Xia ended the call.

‘High Mountain Stream’ was the latest resort project in A City. A plot of land was drawn in the suburbs. It had taken two years to plan and build and had only been completed recently.

As soon as High Mountain Stream restaurant was built, it became the most high-end restaurant in A City and the favorite of all the upstarts in A City. It was packed with people as soon as it opened, and many people made reservations.

As soon as the ‘High Mountain Stream’ project was announced, it could be said that half of the powerful people in A City were shocked. Many people were fighting to get this project. There were even many people who gave gifts behind the scenes and wanted to get the bidding price from the government.

Back then, the Jiang Corporation was also very interested in this project. The Investment Department held a three-day meeting to discuss the bidding price. In the end, it was Jiang Huai who decided on a price that was neither high nor low.

This price had also attracted the suspicion of the Investment Department. They felt that with too many people competing, the price would definitely be raised. The current number was not considered high.

However, Jiang Huai remained unmoved. “According to your evaluation, this number is closest to the base price given by the government. Our goal is not to get this project, but to put pressure on those who must get this project. The more they invest, the less liquid capital they can use before the project is completed.”

Jiang Huai paused for a moment and looked at A City’s development report for the past two years. “The ‘High Mountain Stream’ project isn’t a must, but it can help us develop in other projects in the next two years.”
