She goes crazy, he'll cover for her; the darling of the group is someone no one dares to mess w

Last night, Fang Li specifically instructed Han Xi to get a more ordinary car to avoid being too conspicuous.

Looking at the brand-new car that hadn't even been registered yet, Fang Li felt somewhat helpless.

"I see."

"...In public, please remember not to call me Mrs. Xu, just call me Miss Xu or Fang Li."

Jiang Bei was puzzled, but still nodded: "Yes, Miss Xu."

When the two arrived at the destination, Wen Yang was already there.

Fang Li sat in the car and could see her from afar. She was wearing a bright blue tight-fitting long dress, with a short haircut and light European-style makeup, looking fashionable and radiant.

She looks like a beautiful woman who should be at the forefront of fashion, but her behavior is so bad that it's impossible to communicate with her and unbearable to look at.

I don't know what she was busy with so early in the morning. It seems she didn't even have breakfast. She was squatting by the roadside, eating a jianbing guozi (Chinese crepe) with gusto.

The BMW screeched to a halt, and Wen Yang inhaled a mouthful of exhaust fumes.

Just as he jumped up, ready to yell at someone, he saw the car door open and Fang Li, dressed in a cool long dress, get out.

"You finally came!"

She took two big bites of the pancake in her hand, stuffed the rest into the trash can, wiped her mouth, and pulled Fang Li forward.

"The homeowner called a while ago to say he was almost there. I figured we should head over now, or we'd be late."

They had already stood them up once before, and she had to say a lot of nice things yesterday before the other party finally gave her a somewhat friendly look.

"Let me tell you, last time we only talked to the property management staff, we didn't meet with the homeowners behind it all, you don't know..."

As Wen Yang walked and talked, Fang Li turned around and waved to Jiang Bei in the car, signaling him to follow.

"That man doesn't look like a good guy at all. In the entire park, only the three small buildings under his management are not under the unified management of the property management company. The rent he is asking for is almost 20% higher than the park's unified standard!"

"so much?"

"You think I didn't dare ask him in front of him? I went to ask the property management. They said that after the park was completed, the government and investors were unable to settle the final payment. So the construction company asked to offset the debt with houses and took a few small buildings to settle the debt. I just don't know how they ended up in Wu Zhongquan's hands."

Wu... Zhongquan?

When Wen Yang led Fang Li to the entrance of the small building, Jiang Bei had already parked his car nearby.

Just as the three were about to go inside the small building, a blue Aston Martin roared up and screeched to a halt in front of them.

The car door slowly opened, and a burly, greasy-looking middle-aged man who appeared to be around forty years old stepped out.

He was tall and strong, and when he walked towards them, he looked like a moving wall of flesh. He wore a black BOSS short-sleeved shirt and Armani capri pants, and he walked with a swagger, extremely arrogant.

"Now that you're here, which one is the real person?"

A pair of cloudy little eyes swept over the three of them, finally settling on Fang Li.

He grinned, his chubby cheeks bulging: "Hey, this beautiful lady looks familiar. Haven't we met somewhere before?"

One sentence was enough to change the expressions of the three people opposite him.

Wen Yang subtly nudged Fang Li with her elbow, while feigning a serious smile, "My friend has a very common face; many people say that."

Jiang Bei stood behind Fang Li, his sharp eyes fixed on Wu Zhongquan.

Wu Zhongquan laughed and said, "Girl, you're really joking. If this beautiful lady has an average face, then the streets would be full of ugly people."

"hehe......."

Wen Yang smiled awkwardly and didn't reply.

Fang Li glanced at her, her eyes narrowed, and a faint smile appeared on her lips. Suddenly, she asked a seemingly unrelated question: "Sir, your surname is Wu?"

"Yes, Kou Tian Wu."

"Mr. and the Wu family of Xiamen Construction..."

"You know quite a lot about beautiful women." Wu Zhongquan's eyes showed a hint of surprise, and he chuckled to himself, thinking he was being dashing. "Xiamen Construction is a business owned by our Wu family, and Chairman Wu Guangxia is my uncle."

I was poked hard in the side.

Fang Li turned her head and glanced at Wen Yang, only to see her winking nervously at her.

Xiamen Construction, Wu Guangxia?!

Isn't that Wu Sirou's dad?

"What a coincidence!" Wen Yang murmured, pursing her lips.

Fang Li calmly pulled her hand back, speechless. She really hadn't expected that after looking at houses for so long, the one she finally chose would be owned by the Wu family.

"I never imagined Mr. Wu was from Xiamen Construction. So, these few buildings of ours...?"

"This..." Wu Zhongquan waved his hand dismissively: "Although the property rights belong to the company, my uncle has been entrusting me with managing it all these years. As long as I sign the contract, it doesn't need to go through the company."

"That's it."

Fang Li frowned slightly, her expression shifting with hesitation: "If that's the case, what if some disputes arise later? Won't your company...?"

"Does this mean the beautiful lady doesn't trust me?"

Wu Zhongquan looked a little unhappy.

Fang Li laughed: "How could that be? I was just worried that if we signed a contract privately, it might cause Mr. Wu some trouble later."

"What trouble could I possibly have? Xiamen Construction is a company owned by the Wu family. With my uncle in charge, who would dare say anything!"

"That's good. With Mr. Wu as guarantor, there's nothing to worry about."

Hearing her say that, Wu Zhongquan finally regained some of his smugness.

With one hand in his pocket and the other gently twirling his car keys, he smiled at Fang Li and said, "So it's settled then? I see it's almost noon. How about we find a place to eat and chat, and if possible, sign the contract while we're at it?"

Wen Yang and Fang Li looked at each other and chuckled at him.

Fang Li: "No need for dinner, we have things to do later, the contract..."

“Since both of you ladies have something to do, I can’t force you. How about we put the contract aside for now?” Wu Zhongquan smiled meaningfully and said, “Whenever you have time next time, we can have dinner together and talk about the contract properly.”

Fang Li pursed her lips and remained silent.

Wu Zhongquan smiled and took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to her: "My contact information is on this. Contact me anytime if you've made up your mind. But as you know, this house is in high demand, so I probably won't be able to stay for long."

.....

"That's fucking disgusting!"

Wu Zhongquan had been gone for a while, but Wen Yang still hadn't recovered, her face grim and her expression stifled.

The car started and drove out of the park.

Jiang Bei said, "The Wu family is the contractor for this park. Back then, the government and the Sheng family jointly planned and invested in building a new cultural park here. Originally, the Wu family's small company couldn't even reach this level of project. It was Shengshi Group that connected them and gave the project to the Wu family."

"Shengshi Group?"

Wen Yang said irritably, "It's the only old-established company in Beijing that can barely be compared to the Han family. It made its fortune in real estate and has mainly invested in building large-scale supermarkets in recent years. The nationwide chain of SOHO Plazas belongs to Shengshi Group."
