Chapter 33: Rose Garden Burns, Rival Involves
Yun Li stayed in the Dream Cloud for a while, and then the phone rang.
Soon after she got through, five or six workers came over, greeted Yun Li, and then brought several buckets of oil to pour in every corner of the yard.
Fifteen minutes later, a raging fire broke out.
Each bright red petal swayed, was destroyed, decayed, and turned into ashes in the flames.
Because of the measures taken outside the yard, the fire did not spread.
Just burn the inside out.
Shen Siyan, who was observing and talking to someone not far away next door, saw the direction of the fire and the thick smoke, his eyes paused and his expression became panicked for a moment.
"Mr. Shen, would you like to take a look at our blueprint set?" the middle-aged man asked respectfully.
Shen Siyan was absent-minded, "I have something to talk about. Let's talk later."
He looked in that direction and called Yun Li worriedly, only to realize again that he was still on Yun Li's blacklist.
Then he looked at the boss and said, "Can I borrow your phone?"
"Ok."
The boss quickly handed him the phone.
Although Shen Siyan disguised himself very well, the boss could still tell something was unusual from the speed at which he dialed the phone and the slight force he exerted with his hands.
After a few keystrokes, the contacts with notes will pop up automatically.
Then the boss was surprised to see Shen Siyan, and pressed the dial button of "Yunli" until he hung up after 30 seconds.
"Feel sorry."
Shen Siyan returned the phone to the boss and left in a hurry.
Xie Xiewen rolled his eyes.
Feeling the joy of knowing a secret, he quickly followed closely behind.
Then he saw Shen Siyan stopped not far from the "Dream Cloud" next door, looking at the girl standing indifferently at the door.
He walked over and spoke in a flattering manner.
"Mr. Shen is interested in Miss Yun?" Seeing the other party looking at him coldly, he said, "Miss Yun is young and beautiful, and she is the image ambassador of our Haicheng."
"It's such a pity. She has poor eyesight and was targeted by a scumbag. Her reputation has been ruined. Alas."
Before Mr. Shen came, the Wen family called him.
He thought that President Shen really liked the Wen family and even cared about the matter of Wen Tianhua's son.
Now it seems that he wants that person to get married earlier so that his sweetheart won’t worry about him.
Or...tsk tsk, Wen Tianhua is in trouble.
He didn't mind helping out.
"I know a little bit about the reason. The roses in there were planted one by one by Miss Yun and Wen Lizhi. I didn't expect that they would be burned by her just after they bloomed for the first time."
As he spoke, he observed Shen Siyan's calm expression.
If he hadn't walked out without even discussing cooperation, I would have thought it had nothing to do with him.
Xie Xiewen continued speaking.
"When we were developing this land before, we also tried to buy Miss Yun's place, but no matter how high the price we offered, she was unwilling to pay."
"Others may not be able to see it, but I can. Wen Lizhi is really a worthless person. It's better to burn him."
Shen Siyan walked back expressionlessly.
"Let's continue talking about work, this is an irrelevant topic, there won't be a next time."
Xie Xiewen nodded repeatedly, stopped talking and followed behind.
This young Mr. Shen hasn't figured it out yet.
The girl Yunli had helped him once, so he would give her more help in the future. If it worked, it would be considered as repaying the girl's kindness.
Walking inside, Shen Siyan looked at the blueprint.
"Afterwards, ask again and see if you can get the land back at 10 times the price. If possible, you can even extend the area to the side."
Xie Xiewen pretended not to understand: "Which piece are you talking about?"
Shen Siyan glanced over sharply, with the demeanor of a young superior, making people dare not act rashly.
"Haha, I'm just kidding. What happens after you collect it?"
Shen Siyan withdrew his gaze and curled his lower lips coldly.
"It's a public toilet. Roses are unlucky. Plant roses all over this building."
Xie Xiewen held back his laughter: "Okay."
At this time, Yun Li called back.
He answered the call under Shen Siyan's gaze and pressed the hands-free button on his own initiative.
"Uncle Xie, you called me?"
"It's like this, I want to ask if you are selling that piece of land now, I..."
"Sure, I'll give it to you."
"It's like this. We think that piece of land has great value. We want to buy it from you at 10 times the price. If there is no problem, we can sign it right away."
They interrupt each other.
Xie Xiewen looked at Shen Siyan with some guilt, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that he didn't say anything.
"Can"
"Sister Yunli, I finally found you."
A clear male voice came from the other end of the phone. Yun Li said "OK" and hung up.
Xie Xiewen was a little confused.
Who is this?
A dissatisfied warning from a man sounded nearby.
"He abused his power for personal gain, bent the law for personal gain, and exchanged the greatest benefit for the most useless thing. Mr. Xie's behavior was inappropriate."
Xie Xiewen was sweating profusely, "Then I'll call you back, don't you want it?"
Shen Siyan put his hands in his pockets and walked out.
"When doing business, you must be honest and trustworthy. There will be no next time."
After Shen Siyan left completely, Xie Xiewen quickly asked his assistant to pour him a cup of herbal tea.
"You are still young after all."
When Shen Siyan came out, he happened to see Yun Li leaving in the car of the man who had picked her up downstairs in the morning.
He glanced at the still burning yard and picked up the phone.
"Boss Xie, I need to sign the contract within half an hour."
A few minutes later, the car backed up, and a few minutes later, the signature was completed and Shen Siyan got into Wen Xu's car.
Half an hour later, the three of them came to a restaurant with a good atmosphere.
Wen Xu took the initiative to pull a chair for Yun Li and sat opposite her.
"I'm so sorry, I should have told you earlier, but...it happened suddenly, so I still wanted to tell you."
Shen Siyan sat next to Yun Li without saying a word, deliberately moving closer.
Yun Li didn't notice, "What's the matter?"
Wen Xu looked at Shen Siyan hesitantly, his meaning was obvious.
"This"
Shen Siyan: "You guys can chat, don't treat me as an outsider."
Wen Xu: ...
Doesn't this young master really understand that he is chasing people away?
"You can also send me an email, or chat with me privately later." Yun Li said.
Wen Xu smiled and looked at Shen Siyan proudly.
The other party looked down at his phone and did not receive the call.
"It's okay, it's not a big deal. It's actually related to Mr. Shen."
Wen Xu spoke in a very normal tone about his plan for the Wen family and Shen Siyan's intention to help the Wen family.
There were also one or two provocative remarks in between.
Yun Li and Shen Siyan were both smart people. They understood what was said, but no one of them responded to the conversation.
Wen Xu was getting anxious after a long time without getting a response from Yun Li.
You can stir up trouble one way or another, but your own career is more important.
"Miss Yun, don't you have anything to say? The Wen family has a common enemy with us."
Yun Li slowly drank a sip of juice before speaking.
"First, I told you this morning that if you want to develop, you can do it on your own. It has nothing to do with me;"
"I don't want to care about the Second Wen family for now;"
"Third, if Mr. Wen had carefully read the document I gave you this morning, he would not have asked such a stupid question."
The three lines of criticism made Wen Xu's face gradually become uncomfortable.
However, when he looked up, neither of the two people opposite him looked at him with strange or mocking eyes.
It made him feel like a clown again.
“I’m sorry, I really didn’t finish watching it because some parts didn’t seem feasible.”
Some of the planning is pretty good, but the later stuff about placing coffins on the construction site and it being haunted is clearly nonsense.
Even if it is done, will anyone believe it?
We live in a scientific and law-based society now. If you promote superstition, you are destroying your own retreat.
Yun Li was not excited, nor did he refute.
"Everything depends on human effort. Although Master Wen is an illegitimate child, he has also been well-off since childhood. You have a narrow vision."
Wen Xu was not angry even when he was reprimanded in person.
Years of insults have made him accustomed to bowing his head and pretending to be submissive.
Yun Li didn't give him any face and continued talking while fiddling with the bone soup.
"You can try to go to the people, such as the countryside and the market, and see that the feudal society died long ago, but it lives on in the hearts of many people."
"In the past, you only knew how to fight with your mother, compete with your classmates, and use your appearance to cover yourself up. But only when you truly integrate into a different society can you know whether it is feasible."
"If you want to be the one who holds the cage, you must first jump out of the cage. Wen Xu, you should have a wider world to move around in."
Wen Xu's eyes no longer looked like the color of spring breeze melting snow, but the ruthless ambition in them was truly revealed in front of Yun Li.
He looked at Yun Li intently, then raised the corners of his lips slightly.
"I understand, Yunli, no one has ever spoken to me like this before."
His father loved him and taught him business skills, but he wanted him to live under his nose, to control him, and to serve the Wen family.
His classmates and friends revere and praise him, but hope he falls into oblivion.
No one has ever pointed out his problem so directly and said to him, "Wen Xu, you deserve a broader future."
Until that day, Yunli found him and scolded him.
He didn't feel embarrassed, and even wanted to snuggle into Yun Li's arms and let her scold him a few more times.
Shen Siyan looked at Yun Li with appreciation.
But based on his man's intuition, he knew that this time he really didn't like the man in front of him who was looking at Yun Li with such a straight gaze.
I wanted to dig out his eyes.
"Since Mr. Wen knows he is wrong, he should correct it. I believe the company has just started, and there is still a lot to do."
Wen Xu smiled and sat upright.
"It doesn't matter. I still have time to have a meal with Ali."
So next, at the small dinner table, Shen Siyan witnessed Wen Xu trying to please others in various ways, as if he had become a different person.
"Ali, you are too thin. Eat more meat. This piece of pork ribs is delicious."
"I heard that Ali likes to eat fish. Let me remove the bones and you can eat mine."
……
He almost chewed the rice into pieces and fed it into Yun Li's mouth.
But Yun Li smiled and accepted all the dishes that Wen Xu put into his bowl!
Shen Siyan was halfway through his meal when he couldn't bear to watch it anymore and made an excuse to leave.
"Ali, do you want to eat?"
"enough."
Yun Li put down his chopsticks and Wen Xu exclaimed, "Ah."
"Stop acting, the show is over."
Wen Xu clenched his chopsticks tightly, his face becoming gentle again, "I don't understand what Ali is talking about. Do you want to eat shrimp? I'll peel it for you."
Yun Li leaned sideways, looking at him with her hands on the table, half smiling.
Wen Xu was not panicked and looked obedient.
"Okay, peel them all off."
Yun Li spoke, Wen Xu nodded and began to put on disposable gloves.
After peeling one and about to put it in the bowl, Yun Li spoke again.
"It's already been peeled, feed me now."
