51: Chapter 51 Embarrassing!

Xu Qianli felt his head spinning.

He really wanted to see Sun Yan off, but in his current state, how could he possibly stand up?

Huang Ling, the scatterbrain, was still tending to him; standing up would have been disastrous.

Xu Qianli forced a smile and said awkwardly, “It’s not that I don’t want to see you off, but my leg is cramping.

Just give me a moment, just a moment will do.”

“Crap cramps!”

“You’re so young and sturdy; how could you suddenly get a cramp?”

“I think you’re just putting on airs, not taking me seriously at all!”

“I don’t care if your leg is cramping or broken; get up and see me off, or I’ll get angry!”

Sun Yan spoke petulantly, like a sulky little girl.

It wasn’t that she really minded Xu Qianli not seeing her off, but somehow she felt slighted, like he wasn’t valuing her enough.

She didn’t care if others didn’t appreciate her.

But it was different with Xu Qianli; after all, they’d just shared a somewhat intimate moment, and now there was a faint trace of him in her heart.

If he didn’t value her, that wouldn’t do at all!

Xu Qianli said, “I really have a cramp, I’m not lying to you, Sister Sun.

Spare me this time.

I’ll punish myself later with three drinks as an apology.

No, I’ll punish myself with half a bottle; that has to be okay, right?”

“Hmph, not enough!”

Seeing that Xu Qianli remained silent, Sun Yan got so angry she stomped her foot hard.

“Xu Qianli, stand up!

If you don’t get up in three seconds, I’m never talking to you again!”

“Alright, alright, I’m getting up!” With gritted teeth, Xu Qianli stood up.

The next second, Sun Yan’s face turned beet red.

She’d wondered why Xu Qianli didn’t want to see her off, but to think he was like this, not even wearing pants!

“You, Xu Qianli, you shameless man, too shameless!

How could you talk to me while, while…”

She couldn’t continue speaking and, with a flushed face, she turned and ran out as fast as a flying arrow.

Watching Sun Yan leave, Xu Qianli was dumbstruck.

Damn it, what was that all about!

Huang Ling crawled out from under the desk, grinning.

She sat on the desk, wiping her mouth with a tissue, and chuckled.

“So, boss, you really are something, getting on so well with Deputy County Magistrate Sun without anyone noticing—impressive.”

“Hehehe, to think Deputy County Magistrate Sun seemed so proper.

I never imagined she’d get pouty and act cute in private.

How adorable!”

“It’s really because you’re so handsome and capable, almost like a donkey reborn.

What woman wouldn’t like you?

No wonder Deputy County Magistrate Sun fell for you too.”

“Since you work in the same office, seeing each other all the time, aren’t you afraid people will find out?”

Although Huang Ling wasn’t sure about the exact nature or stage of Xu Qianli’s relationship with Sun Yan, based on their conversation just now, she easily concluded that their relationship was definitely not simple, and they might be more than just friends.

Huang Ling, who had been worried about getting disciplined by Xu Qianli and had hurriedly come to apologize, even going as far as to try seducing him.

Now she felt relieved, knowing about Xu Qianli and Sun Yan’s affair, she had leverage on Xu Qianli and wasn’t panicking anymore.

Xu Qianli, furious beyond measure, twisted Huang Ling around, made her bend over the desk with her butt up, and slapped her.

“You wretch, if it hadn’t been for you, would I have made a fool of myself in front of Sister Sun?”

“Now you dare to spread rumors about me and Sister Sun, hinting that the two of us have an affair, how bold of you.”

“I think you just need to be dealt with!”

“Didn’t you come here specifically to seduce me?

Well, I’ll grant your wish and let you see what I’m capable of!”

In a fit of rage, Xu Qianli no longer cared and tore off Huang Ling’s dress…

…

After a bout of scrambling, once Xu Qianli was satisfied, he hurriedly put on his clothes, picked up a cigarette and started puffing away.

Huang Ling was still lying on the table, barely catching her breath, turned her head and looked at Xu Qianli with seductive eyes and spoke softly.

“It’s so good to have met you, Leader!”

“You’re probably the most powerful man in Jiang City.”

“I’m afraid I won’t be able to leave you.

You can’t just play and leave, you can’t refuse to acknowledge what happened.”

Xu Qianli snorted coldly and mocked, “What, after being with me once, you think you can cling to me?”

“Where, I wouldn’t dare.”

“What I mean is, I’m already yours, leader.

You’ve had your way with me, you should take care of me more in the future.”

“I know you’re no ordinary man, you will rise to heights that I can only look up to.”

“All I ask for is a little support from you.

I’ll be grateful for a lifetime, I’ll always remember your kindness.”

Speaking softly, Huang Ling managed to muster her strength to get up and threw herself into Xu Qianli’s arms, acting like the most delicate kitten, desperate to win his complete favor.

Xu Qianli sneered without saying a word.

People like her, opportunistic and lacking principle, thinking I would support her, it’s almost laughable.

Though he despised her character, her body was indeed top-notch.

Having just enjoyed her, Xu Qianli knew full well how great her figure and skills were.

Such a person, perfect to occasionally entertain oneself with, was still quite useful.

After finishing his cigarette, Xu Qianli said, “As long as you work hard, perform well, and achieve results, you naturally won’t have to worry about your future.”

Xu Qianli gave an ambiguous response, neither agreeing nor refusing.

Receiving such a reply was far from satisfying for Huang Ling, but knowing she had just hooked up with Xu Qianli, she couldn’t press too hard.

She had to accept it, and instead focused on softly flattering Xu Qianli, saying he was much better than her own husband.

Xu Qianli, young and vigorous, was quickly stirred up again and carried Huang Ling onto the office desk.

Huang Ling’s heart trembled with fright, barely knowing how to cope then, and now here it came again; she was truly afraid of Xu Qianli.

But in order to please Xu Qianli, she dared not refuse and could only forcefully sustain her weary body to cope.

It was almost time to leave work when Huang Ling stepped out of Xu Qianli’s office, appearing untroubled on the surface but actually feeling weak all over, barely able to walk.

Reflecting on what had happened, though a bit frightened, she also felt a secret thrill.

Today she not only won Xu Qianli’s forgiveness but also connected with him, becoming his woman.

With his future success, it was very likely she’d benefit.

Meanwhile, Xu Qianli made several calls to inquire about the progress of Wang Family Village’s project.

The reply he got was that Hehua Real Estate had been sealed off, preliminary asset inventory amounted to almost two billion yuan, with 80 million in cash alone on account, sufficient to help the villagers of Wang Family Village through their difficulties and even restart the new housing construction plan.

The villagers of Wang Family Village had also been organized by government-assigned personnel to stay in several hotels in the county, and their livelihoods were now secured.

Satisfied with such a response, Xu Qianli felt quite content, believing that the issue with Wang Family Village had been satisfactorily resolved.

After finishing several calls, another call came through, and unexpectedly, it was from his ex-girlfriend, Xu Shuman.
