The two still watched each other in the eyes. Silt. Ling Qingyu was the first to avert the staring contest under the blaming eyes of Zhao Xiurong.
"It doesn't matter, I can call Lin Xiao for the task." Ling Qingyu gave an excuse.
Zhao Xiurong rolled her eyes. "The area a here is spldid. I might buy one of the villas and be your neighbor."
Ling Qingyu immediately regained her ergy. "Th do it. I'll gift one of them to you so that you can move out soon."
Zhao Xiurong's mind wt blank. What did she hear?
"Did you just say gifting me?" Zhao Xiurong wanted to confirm again.
"Yes, I did. I bought all the villas a this huge manor and make this land a private property." Ling Qingyu said with a proud face.
Zhao Xiurong only showed a wide-oped mouth in response. Th, she lashed her palm on Ling Qingyu's shoulder.
"Why are you wasting money? That money should have more use than the villas here!" She screamed while she hit. Hmm...It was more like a silt screech.
Ling Qingyu had to quickly placate her angry secretary. "Hey, Hey! Calm down! There're people a. You know my character. I never do something that is inefficit."
Zhao Xiurong exhaled her angry breath and slowly figured it out. Ling Qingyu should never do something wasteful; there must be something hidd under the sleeve.
Ling Qingyu added: "You've se those millions I've st, right? Yeah, there're several times more in my pocket. You need not worry about my wealth. So, what I want to say is if you like this residtial area, come and live in it. Don't hesitate."
Zhao Xiurong didn't say anymore. It appeared she was also considering what Ling Qingyu spoke.
In the d, Secretary Zhao finally said. "Alright, I'll ask my Mom. But I'll be paying rt or ev considering buying it."
"No need, Sister Zhao. Ar't we close? Give me this face." Ling Qingyu wanted to refuse before being stopped again.
"Of course, Sister Ling. But one inch is an inch. It's not good for certain aspects to affect our relationship. It's best to be clean and have principle."
Ling Qingyu sighed. "As you wish but my final offer—a fridly price."
Zhao Xiurong nodded.
"Let's go to our two protagonists. I have something to declare." Ling Qingyu said.
Xiao Yue nodded and followed.
On the way, Ling Qingyu met Lin Xiao and recalled her elders. She paused and asked her butler. "Butler Lin, do you know where my elders are?"
"Yes Miss Ling, they're still having tea outside. Do you want me to show you the way?" Lin Xiao replied.
Ling Qingyu waved her hand. "No, no. Thank you. I've something to do at the momt."
Before she took another step further, she remembered Wang Xiuying's group. Ling Qingyu spoke: "Hmm...wait. There's something I need your help. You see those girls. Please arrange housing for them to stay here."
Following Ling Qingyu's finger, Lin Xiao saw Wang Xiuying's group chattering and nodded. "As you order, Miss Ling. Anything else?"
"No, thanks for your hard work." Ling Qingyu continued her path and Lin Xiao bowed a little in reply. She liked the coming future in this manor, working under Ling Qingyu.
Her demeanor could never raise negative stimts from everyone. Lin Xiao talked to another maid nearby and arranged everything.
Ling Qingyu signaled with her head to follow her. Both Tang Ziyi and Su Ruomei noticed it.
The four of them tered a private room in the corner; well not so private wh the closed space was covered by glass.
At least, it was soundproof. Ling Qingyu locked the trance and asked the rest to sit.
The room served as a refreshmt for drinks or allowed others to spd a relaxing time here.
A television, grey luxurious sofas, and a glass table. Similar to a convtional living room including the air conditioner.
Su Ruomei asked Tang Ziyi quietly through a glance and Tang Ziyi replied by blinking. She understood immediately.
Ling Qingyu was likely to discuss training her fellow female soldiers. It was good news and a rare opportunity.
Out of everyone, Xiao Yue was the only clueless person. Ling Qingyu strolled along the room before she sat down.
She looked at everyone and smiled. "Care to take a guess what I'm going to say next?"
