Part Two, *East Soil Big Sugar*, Chapter 188: Thunder Strike

ting you, relentlessly, until you turn into a wall of copper and iron, only then are you able to protect yourself and others.""I know," Shu Tinglan replied."You, you set your sights on anyone else, bu...When it came to business, Han Li was serious and solemn. He flew all the way to the southwest and then took a car to the county. He didn't say a word to Zhao Tingxing that wasn't about business. 。Since the highway has been repaired, it no longer takes three hours to get from the airport to the county by winding along the mountains. Now, you can drive through the tunnel and reach your destination in less than an hour. 。Han Li, who had been silent the whole way, finally spoke after they exited the tunnel. She pointed to a white spot on a distant mountain, "Did you see that white spot up there"Zhao Tingxing followed her gaze in that direction. The white spot wasn't very big, but it was very noticeable against the backdrop of green mountains and forest. 。

Han Li: "That's my parents' grave." 。When this highway was being built, the original plan was to dig a tunnel through that mountain. 。If that were the case, my parents would also be tormented for eternity after death. 。So I put in a lot of effort, found the county government officials and organized geologists, surveying companies and other departments to prove that the mountain where the tunnel is located now is more suitable. 。In the end, it was Gu Ruandong's approval that truly made the difference. 。I thought at the time that if my parents could pass away peacefully, and this cemetery is right facing the tunnel, I'll be able to see them as soon as I come back and exit the tunnel. 。This is the most she has ever spoken. 。This was also the first time she had confessed her feelings to Zhao Tingxing. 。However, Zhao Tingxing just nodded and said, "Not bad, the feng shui here is good. " 。He was born without the capacity for empathy, even cold-blooded. His heart was more focused on the idea that when a person is alive, you don't show filial piety, and only after death do you become filial to appease your own conscience. 。Once dead, there is no more perception. 。It must have been a case of seeing something and recalling memories, with Zhao Tingxing sitting beside her. This brought back memories for Han Li: "Back then, I wanted to go to the construction site with you. My mom cried, made a fuss, and even threatened suicide to stop me." 。A rural woman can't help it, she can only resort to tantrums and rolling around. 。Zhao Tingxing looked at the green hills and green water outside the window, and said in a flat tone: "You should have listened to your parents back then. Following a poor boy who has nothing and is not good to you, what can you achieve" 。“Yes, I was too ashamed to go home for many years after that. I couldn't face them.” 。By the time I have made some progress and can provide them with a good life, it will be too late. 。"

The white dots on the mountain range in the distance gradually faded and disappeared. Han Li also returned to her usual indifference. The genuine emotions that had just flowed out were only torn open, and she quickly sewed them up again, airtight." 。The two people got out of the car and rushed straight to the meeting room on the buyer's side. The other party had already arrived. 。This place belongs to Zhao Tingxing. Although he got Gu Shi Group and the government tourism planning department to hype him up, his psychological expectation wasn't high. After all, this county is a backwater with stagnant water. It's possible to make a small profit if someone is willing to spend money here. 。But Han Li represented the Gu Group. No matter Zhao Ting's attitude, she did her best. 。When talking to the other party about Gu's tourism area plan, she remained composed and projected her designed plan onto the screen. She spoke eloquently, bringing people into her vision. 。If the county can truly cooperate with Gu's family to develop this tourism project, then the value of the land under Zhao Tingxing's control would be immeasurable, because that piece of land is located right between the bustling city center and the scenic area. 。After introducing herself, Han Li noticed interest in the other person's eyes. She calmly turned off the projector and returned to her seat. The following events were no longer her concern. 。Zhao Ting's lips curled into a smile, but inwardly he scoffed. This Gu Ruandong was pretending to be so earnest even though it was clearly a lie. He was good at fooling people, and Han Li almost believed him. 。。Zhao Tingxing was very angry. He worked hard for a long time, but he didn't sell it at the original price. He wasn't happy, and his displeasure was obvious on his face. He looked like he wanted to say, "You guys aren't serious! Get out of here and don't waste my time!" 。The meeting, which had begun amicably, turned into a stalemate. Seeing his reaction, the other party realized that it was impossible to continue the discussion today. 。Then he said, "Mr. Zhao, let's do that. We'll make another appointment sometime." 。He said and then left the conference room in a throng. 。For a moment, only he and Han Li remained in the conference room. 。Han Li didn't even look at him, closed her own computer and put it into her laptop bag, got up and left. As she passed by him, she paused for a moment: "I'm going to stay at my grandmother's." 。Zhao Tingxing circled the chair, facing her directly, also blocking her way. His face still held the anger from the meeting:

"What kind of trick are you playing again"

"No, I just haven't seen her in a long time and wanted to visit." 。"Want to sneak around and play games Han Li, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. Grandma might be soft-hearted, but whether or not I marry you is up to me, not her." 。"Zhao Tingxing made it clear today, still sticking to the previous point. If she wanted to continue sleeping, she could; but if she wanted something else, forget it." 。

Hàn Lì was carrying her laptop bag, her fingertips were slightly cool, but her eyes scanned him up and down, finally settling on his open legs where he sat, she smiled faintly: "Don't be so arrogant, not everyone wants to marry you" >>>。"It's not that I think highly of your skills, do you really think I'd waste my time arguing with you"

Zhao Tingxing, upon hearing this, extended his right leg and hooked her knee. With a slight push, her legs went weak, and she fell onto him, her laptop bag landing on the floor with a thud. 。The swivel chair, due to inertia, slid backwards with the two of them, bumping against the wall of the conference room with a thud. They were pressed closer together, Zhao Tingxing's voice was deep and mellow: "Like technology Then everything is easy to say" 。What he needs is a relationship that is completely free of baggage, purely for the sake of sleep. 。People are lively and energetic, regardless of whether they are in a meeting room with clients at the moment, someone is always coming in. 。He's shameless, but she still needs to maintain her professional image. 。

With his hands braced against his chest, poised to speak, the meeting room door suddenly swung open.

"Mr. Zhao, Mr. Han, our boss..."

The voice abruptly cut off when it caught sight of the overlapping shadows on the chairs.

They were acting as the second party, coming to the first party's company for a meeting. Then, while the people from the first party left the office, they got busy in another conference room. 。This circle isn't small, but it's not exactly big either. Especially in a place like this county, her Han Li's reputation would probably be ruined. 。Zhao Tingxing remained calm and collected, as if he were in his own office. His broad palm rested beneath her, even gently rubbing her buttocks for a moment. He spoke with a smile that wasn't quite a smile: "General Han, please behave yourself." 。"Han Li took a deep breath, supported himself on the arms of his chair, and stood up with determination. He controlled his facial expressions, even managing a composed smile, as he addressed the stunned person at the door: "I accidentally tripped and fell. Is there something you need""Tinglan, go to my car and get some paper. Brother Chen is in the car. Also, bring two bottles of water over." He commanded calmly.Shu Tinglan then walked toward his car to get the paper. As she got c...
