CHAPTER 111: CHAPTER 111: WORKPLACE COMPETITION

When everyone got a clear look at Chu Chen, most people showed disbelief, and someone even mocked, "It’s really laughable, any random cat or dog wants to buy a villa."

Upon hearing this, Chu Chen couldn’t help but frown. He was just asking, and didn’t expect this to happen.

Lin Yu immediately apologized, "Sorry, I didn’t mean it."

Chu Chen waved his hand, "It’s okay, they’re just irrelevant people, no need to pay them any mind."

Chu Chen didn’t deliberately lower his voice, so the person who mocked him before naturally heard his words loud and clear.

"Kid, you’re pretty arrogant! I want to see if you have the capability to buy a villa." A man wearing sunglasses, holding a heavily made-up woman, said coldly.

Chu Chen frowned again upon hearing this. Causing trouble again and again, did they really think he was made of clay?

At this time, Chu Chen’s communication bracelet rang with a slightly urgent tone.

Chu Chen looked and saw it was Ji Mingyue calling, it seemed like there was news from the slaughterhouse.

Not daring to delay, he quickly answered.

"My grandpa agreed, there will be news in a few days." Ji Mingyue said with a smile.

"Thanks a lot."

"You’re welcome, I ate your meal, naturally I have to help. By the way, why didn’t you come to school today?"

"I’m planning to change houses, so I came to have a look today."

The two chatted for a bit and then hung up the call.

At this moment, the man with the sunglasses noticed the communication bracelet and couldn’t help but freeze. He quickly took off his sunglasses to take a closer look.

The communication bracelet is not an ordinary item, nor something you can buy with money.

Because only officials and the Five Great Daoist Schools can wear a communication bracelet.

Very quickly, the man saw the prominent Cyan Dragon Mark on Chu Chen’s communication bracelet.

His expression suddenly changed, immediately letting go of the woman he was holding, even his demeanor shifted from arrogant to deferential.

He had been struggling in Celestial Star City for over a decade, only then accumulating some wealth, usually cautious, and never daring to mess with people he shouldn’t provoke.

He naturally recognized the Cyan Dragon Mark of the Cyan Dragon Daoist School and was very clear about what this mark represented.

He hunched over, with a flattering face, came before Chu Chen.

Seeing this, Chu Chen frowned with some dissatisfaction, "Do you have something to say?"

The man replied with a polite smile, "No, no, I have a friend in this real estate development, you can get a discount on buying properties, shall I introduce you? Rest assured it’s all free, I mean no harm, please forgive the earlier offense."

Chu Chen waved his hand, "No need, you can leave."

The man dared not linger, nodding and bowing as he hastily departed.

Seeing the man leave, Chu Chen looked at his communication bracelet, mumbling to himself, "Indeed, having a strong backing makes things easier."

The influence of the Five Great Daoist Schools far exceeded his expectations.

This scene was observed by everyone present. As long as they weren’t fools, they all understood that this young man was not as simple as he seemed.

"Brother Wang, who is that kid?" the woman whispered.

The man replied with a somewhat ugly expression, "A genius student contracted with the Cyan Dragon Daoist School, with a limitless future, someone we can’t afford to provoke. A word of advice, try not to mess with people wearing communication bracelets, especially those with special marks."

The woman nodded quickly, looking at Chu Chen with a gaze full of regret and fear.

At this time, an old employee who bullied relatives couldn’t help but show a look of remorse. She realized that she had missed out on a big deal, but as if she thought of something, she hurried over to Chu Chen’s side.

"Lin Yu, the manager wants you to go over, it seems urgent."

"Sister Zhang, please take care of the client for me, I’ll be back soon." Lin Yu said, a bit anxious.

"Sure, you go ahead, I’ll watch over here." Sister Zhang replied.

Lin Yu expressed her gratitude with a nod and quickly left.

Chu Chen watched with interest as Sister Zhang approached.

Sister Zhang looked to be about twenty-seven or eight years old, with a curvy figure, fair skin, and quite a charming appeal.

He had heard plenty about workplace rivalries and snatching clients in his previous life, but didn’t expect to witness it firsthand today.

But Chu Chen didn’t point it out, as there wasn’t much going on right now, he was curious to see what tactics Sister Zhang would use to move him.

Seeing Lin Yu leave, Sister Zhang quickly adjusted her clothes, and when she turned around, the buttons on her neckline had silently come undone, revealing an impressive cleavage to Chu Chen.

Chu Chen was quite satisfied, nodding slightly; such free benefits were worth enjoying.

"Hello sir, I am the sales representative Zhang Bo, I have been working here for three years. I had a new colleague assist you earlier because I was busy. I hope she didn’t offend you." said Sister Zhang.

Chu Chen murmured, "She really knows how to live up to her name. Her tactics are indeed impressive: she first showed off her assets and work advantages, then subtly belittled Lin Yu to make her own impression more favorable."

Sister Zhang took out a floor plan of the development, leaning closer to Chu Chen and further showcasing her cleavage.

This made Chu Chen a bit overwhelmed, as he was at the peak of his vigor, and his body was exceedingly strong in certain ways.

Zhang Bo seemed to recognize Chu Chen’s situation and further advanced her efforts.

"There’s a hidden perk when buying a villa from me, would you like to know?" She said with a tone of temptation.

Chu Chen couldn’t help but smile, it seemed the main show was about to begin.

"Let’s exchange contact info, and we’ll have a good chat tonight."

Anyone sensible could hear the hidden implication in her words.

After understanding how she was snatching clients, Chu Chen lost interest.

He slowly put away his smile and said coldly, "Please behave yourself, I’m not interested in you at all."

Zhang Bo’s face suddenly turned red. This trick had been unfailing for her until today, when it backfired here.

She glared at Chu Chen, a bit displeased, "Youth truly doesn’t understand the value of a mature woman, mistakenly treating young girls as treasures."

Chu Chen shook his head helplessly.

Soon, Lin Yu hurried back.

"I’m sorry, Sister Zhang misheard, sorry to have kept you waiting." Lin Yu said apologetically.

Chu Chen replied helplessly, "You’re still too naive; you should be cautious of your Sister Zhang, never harbor harm towards others, but always guard against them."

Lin Yu seemed to understand something and quickly expressed gratitude, "Thank you for the reminder, I’ll be more careful in the future."

Chu Chen nodded, "Let’s continue then."

"Alright, the villa area is about 300 square meters, with a roof that’s complimentary and comes with a 200-square-meter yard."

In the end, Chu Chen chose a number eight villa, costing five and a half million, and he paid in a lump sum.

This made Zhang Bo extremely upset.

However, Lin Yu was very happy and repeatedly invited Chu Chen to dinner, but he always declined.
