Lin Qiao couldn’t remember how the engagement ceremony started that day, nor could she remember how Shirun and Minghong announced at the engagement ceremony that they would join forces with Qiongyu Real Estate to upgrade and transform the Jiangwu Development Zone and create a pilot project for Green Home. She also couldn’t remember how Baitian was being talked about so much that the duck that was about to be eaten was about to fly away. She only remembered that she hardly left the toilet that day.
As for Su Zhengxing… He wasn’t much better off.
Before the engagement banquet even ended, Lin Qiao and Su Zhengxing had already returned to the hotel. It wasn’t until it was dark that they finally recovered.
She is the perfect example of someone who harms both herself and others.
“This medicine is too strong! I only took a sip…”
Lin Qiao lay weakly and listlessly on the bed.
“Get up and drink some salt water.” Su Zhengxing reminded her in her mind.
Today at the Gu family home, Lin Qiao, though oblivious, overheard Shirun and Minghong discussing their collaboration with Qiongyu to renovate the Jiangwu Development Zone and create a pilot project for Green Home.
Previously, Baitian acquired Dongshan’s technology and applied it to the land they were developing in cooperation with Huayao. The original intention was to use it as a pioneer for Green Home construction and to present it as a case study at the bidding conference to increase Baitian’s chances of winning.
This project is confidential; only a few core board members know about it. Logically, it shouldn’t be leaked until the day of the bidding. Now, before the project is even finished, someone has already copied it, even having a relative of the judge taste it and advertise it. Nine times out of ten, there’s a mole inside.
This significantly weakened Baitian’s already slight advantage. No wonder Gu Jibai insisted on getting engaged to the young lady of Shirun, even though Shen Ruxing was heartbroken. With Shirun acting as matchmaker, Green Home was practically a sure thing for Minghong.
Now it seemed he didn’t even need to do anything; Baitian had already been automatically removed from the picture.
However…
The greater Minghong’s chances of winning the Green Home project, the safer Baitian would be. He should applaud this move, both morally and logically. However, it’s unknown how many people will be harmed by that toxic land in the Jiangwu Development Zone.
He remembered that last time, Qiongyu Real Estate dumped that piece of land in Jiangwu Development Zone on a sucker for debt settlement. Not long after the sucker took over, it was revealed that the land failed the test. All the homeowners, merchants, and workers who were unaware of the situation at the time went to the sucker for refunds and compensation, which caused a great uproar for a long time.
Despite this, fortunately, the toxic land project was eventually abandoned, preventing further harm to anyone.
Now, Qiongyu had publicly announced that it would work with Shirun and Minghong to create a pilot project for Green Home. It was obvious that they wanted to protect that piece of land. Using a toxic piece of land as a signboard for Green Home was both ironic and chilling.
“How about some salt soda?”
Lin Qiao had no idea what Su Zhengxing was thinking in her mind. She struggled to get up and looked at the two bottles of salt soda in the bar area of the room.
After finishing her drink, she thought of Su Zhengxing next door. She wondered if he was feeling any better. After all, she felt responsible for his situation, so she decided to take the other bottle to him.
