Director Chu broke out in a cold sweat after being questioned by Xiao Lingyu on the spot. At the same time, he felt extremely regretful.

He really did not expect Yan Siming to know this beauty. If he had known, he wouldn’t have dared to threaten Xiao Lingyu.

Director Chu smiled apologetically, “Miss Xiao, I’m really sorry. I really did not know that you were chairman Yan’s friend.”

Xiao Lingyu raised her eyebrows and asked in a cold and sharp voice, “So, if I’m not Chairman Yan’s friend, what do you intend to do to me?”

Director Chu, “…”

Everyone, “…”

‘Isn’t the woman too pushy? If she’s not Chairman Yan’s friend, she would be tossed in someone’s bed already!’

However, since Director Chu had apologized, why was she so stubborn and unwilling to let go? This was bullying? Why didn’t she show Director Chu face?

Director Chu’s expression changed. He felt a little resentful, but he couldn’t show it on his face.

He smiled apologetically and said, “Miss Xiao, I have offended you, so I will apologize now. Please be magnanimous. Miss Xiao, as long as you are willing to accept my apology, feel free to ask for anything!”

Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said, “Director Chu, I’m just a small fry. Since you have already apologized, if I continue to harangue you, it will be my fault.”

Hearing this, Director Chu immediately heaved a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he was forgiven. Otherwise, he would have angered Yan Siming. He really didn’t know what would happen next.

However, he didn’t expect to be forgiven so quickly.

Director Chu said excitedly, “Then I really have to thank Miss Xiao for your magnanimity.”

If Yan Siming hadn’t arrived, he would have taken advantage of the situation to bully her. So, he was both lucky and unlucky.

Xiao Lingyu said with a faint smile, “Director Chu, don’t thank me yet. Since you want to apologize, you should at least show some sincerity, right?”

Everyone, “…” I knew the apology wouldn’t be accepted so easily. At the end of the day, the woman is after money.

Chu Liren was stunned for a moment before he reacted. He immediately smiled and said, “Of course, of course!” If he could spend some money to settle this matter it was worth it.

But…

Xiao Lingyu said with a smile, “I heard that Director Chu and Director Ge seemed to be signing a contract for 30 million. How about this? Give me the profits from that big business deal.”

Everyone, “…”

Chu Liren, “…”

This woman had such a big appetite! A rose has many thorns! She actually asked for the profits from the business deals. For a deal of that scale, the profits would be at least tens of millions.

Director Chu’s face turned pale, and his expression was a little shocked. ‘This bitch has such a big appetite. I’ve worked so hard for this deal. Is it all going to waste? But if I don’t agree, Yan Siming will…’ Chu Liren thought about saying something else, “Miss Xiao…”

Xiao Lingyu didn’t wait for him to speak. Instead, she directly said to Yan Siming, “Brother Yan, I may have to trouble you with this problem.”

Yan Siming nodded in surprise. “No problem. I’ll supervise them like before. Don’t worry. Every penny from the deal will be used for hope primary school and the orphanage.”

Everyone, “…”

Chu Liren, “…”

From what they heard, Miss Xiao had donated to a charity foundation many times, and it was under Yan Siming’s supervision.

Miss Xiao didn’t want the money for herself, but she wanted to donate it to charity.

Everyone looked at Chu Liren with sympathy and pity. He had to cough up the money even if he didn’t want to. The donation was his, but the reputation would be gained by someone else.

Director Ge, who was sitting with President Chu before, wiped the cold sweat on his forehead with a handkerchief.

He didn’t want to sign the contract with Director Chu so soon, but now that Yan Siming had interfered, he had no choice anymore. If he didn’t sign the contract, how would the donation happen?

The woman had insisted on the cooperation for the donation. Director Ge had to do it unless he was not afraid of offending Yan Siming. But how could he not? He was just a small fish. Was he not afraid of offending a big shark like Yan Siming? This was impossible.

However, what made him secretly glad was that this woman only wanted Chu Liren to donate Chu Liren’s part of the profit, and she didn’t mention anything about his part. The matter was settled with Chu Liren spending a lot of money.

Many people had recognized this woman by Yan Siming’s side. They guessed, ‘Could this be Yan Siming’s lover? The younger sister could be all a front. However, based on their attitude, that didn’t seem to be the case.

‘The woman was not after money. Moreover, looking at her attitude toward Yan Siming, she really treated him like an ordinary friend.’

Yan Siming ignored everyone’s guess and directly pulled out a stool and sat next to Xiao Lingyu.

He then said with a slightly aggrieved tone, “Xiao Lingyu, why don’t you tell me every time you come to City Z? Am I that unimportant in your eyes?”

Xiao Lingyu said somewhat speechlessly, “I say, chairman Yan, although we are friends, I don’t need to greet you every time I come to City Z, do I?”

Since her shop was located here, it was normal for her to come to city Z from time to time.

“Besides, you are the boss of a large corporation, and you are busy with work every day. How can I bother you?” Xiao Lingyu said.

“Yu ‘Er, you know that I really like you to bother me,” Yan Siming said shamelessly.

Everyone who was listening pricked up their ears, “…” Chairman Yan, are you pursuing this girl? But it was not right. Haven’t the woman already said she’s married and has a child? Is it possible that Chairman Yan doesn’t know that?

Yan Siming glanced at Zeng Yaozu and said to Xiao Lingyu, “Are you here for the supermarket again?”

Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said, “No!”

Zeng Yaozu opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, he didn’t say anything.

Yan Siming noticed Zeng Yaozu’s expression, and a glint flashed in his eyes. It seemed that Xiao Lingyu was hiding something from him.

After that, the three of them chatted like normal.

The surrounding onlookers were shocked. It seemed that their relationship was really close.

While the three of them were eating, the general manager of the Jun Hao Hotel, Wan Congsong, walked over.

He walked straight to Xiao Lingyu’s table.

Everyone, “…” Is Wan Congsong trying to use this opportunity to befriend Yan Siming? But isn’t Yan Siming a regular here already? Plus, this timing isn’t right.

“Boss Xiao, CEO Zeng, why didn’t you tell me when you came to my hotel for a meal?” Wan Congsong said with a smile, “I would have reserved a private room for you.”

Everyone, “…” Manager Wan, isn’t your discrimination too obvious? Also, can’t you see Yan Siming? Why are you only greeting the woman?

However, some were shocked. ‘Wang Congsong knows this woman?! Plus, from his attitude, he seems to be very familiar with her. Moreover, he is very respectful towards her. Who is this woman? She has a good relationship with both Yan Siming and Wan Congsong.’

Xiao Lingyu said with a smile, “Manager Wan, I don’t want to trouble you. I’m just here for a meal.” However, she still had attracted trouble.

Wan Congsong said with a smile, “Why would you say that? You’re my savior! I have to treat you well. Why don’t we go to the private room now? I’ll add two more dishes. We need to have a good chat.”

Xiao Lingyu looked at the people around her who were craning their necks and listening intently. She could only say helplessly, “Alright!”

She had already attracted the attention of others. If she did not leave, she would only be treated like a monkey for others to watch.
