56 The Surprising Reunion (2/2)

Although she had hurt him before, he didn’t have the desire to seek revenge.

What happened before was all buried in dust. Yes, Fang Yuanyuan did hurt him, but through her perspective, she didn’t do anything wrong since Jiang Chen couldn’t give her the life she wanted.

Also, it’s hard to debate who actually gained more from her rejection.

”How did you find out where I worked?” She gritted her teeth as she locked her eyes on Jiang Chen. ”Leave, I don’t want to see. I won’t accept you.”

Jiang Chen was completely dumbfounded.

[What? Do I need your permission to buy a house? You are mistaking this whole thing.]

But Fang Yuanyuan didn’t give Jiang Chen the chance to explain as she acted defiantly.

As to why she rejected so dramatically, it was because of something that happened recently.

A middle-aged business man that recently bought a second-hand house from here proposed to her. The reason behind it was she tricked the bald, middle-aged man to think that a cute girl had fallen in love with him, so he hot-headedly signed his name on the contract.

But when the middle-aged men showed up with ninety-nine roses to her workplace…

The exact details will not be discussed, but in short, the guy got kicked out by security. Because of this, the manager warned her. Even if the implicit rules within this industry was not new, you still have to watch your tail.

She was terrified that Jiang Chen would pull something by directly proposing to her.

If he made a fool of himself here and demanded her to marry him, even if the security would kick him out, she would be the laughing stock between her colleagues, and it would even affect her bonus this month.

She selectively ignored the woman that stood behind Jiang Chen, a woman that would embarrass Fang Yuanyuan not only just in looks.

”You know her?” Xia Shiyu in offline mode suddenly opened her mouth with a mischievous look.

[Why is it so cold here, is the AC too low?] Jiang Chen shivered.

”I guess.” Jiang Chen awkwardly answered.

This is ruining the mood, let’s try a different place then.

With Fang Yuanyuan’s arrogant act, Jiang Chen wasn’t in the mood anymore. He didn’t even bother explaining as he was ready to turn around.

Seeing Jiang Chen leave in ”embarrassment”, Fang Yuanyuan let out a breath as she was amazed by her cunningness.

Good thing I acted with certainty. Haha, dumba*s.

”A toad that wants to date the swan.” (To crave for what one is not worthy of.)

Jiang Chen stopped, although it was faint, it didn’t escape his ear.

Xia Shiyu also stopped; however, she looked it like she was happy to see the conflict unfold. Jiang Chen noticed and gave her a dirty look before he gradually turned around and walked in front of the reception.

”What, what do you want? I am calling the security.” Fang Yuanyuan saw that Jiang Chen was walking towards her with a fierce look as she began to feel nervous. She started to stutter.

”Nothing. What? A receptionist can reject the customer’s rights to buy a house?” Even if you don’t want me to buy, I will buy it here, and I will buy it from someone else right in front of you.

Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows as he glanced at the security guards walking over.

A deathly stare.

[This guy killed people before?!]

The security guard suddenly felt fear overcome him as cold sweat rolled down his forehead.

Although Jiang Chen didn’t intentionally expose anything, the bloodiness stained from the chaotic apocalypse crept into the security guard’s mind through his grim gaze.

His instinct from being in the gang told him that he would not be able to handle the young man in front of him. He wasn’t planning to start a fight, but momentum wise he already lost out.

The air in the room started to tense up.

At this moment, an apologetic voice suddenly alleviated all the tension in the air.

”Of course she doesn’t have the right, honorable sir. I apologize for this poor demeanor of our company’s reception.”
