124: Hot and beautiful lady, who sent you?
Facing Zhuo Wuyang's modesty, Bao Qingqing covered her mouth and chuckled, but did not speak.
Chen Yang then introduced Zhuo Xiaogang.
"This is Xiaogang, Uncle Zhuo's son, and also my brother."
"Both of them will be living here from now on."
"I appreciate you taking care of them."
Bao Qingqing quickly greeted Zhuo Xiaogang, and assured Chen Yang that it was no trouble.
It must be said that besides being beautiful and having a fiery figure, Bao Qingqing was meticulous in her work.
Her interpersonal skills were even more noteworthy.
She was socially adept and handled matters thoroughly.
Being a housekeeper was truly beneath her talents!
Fortunately, the salary Chen Yang offered was high, comparable to that of a typical company executive.
For the time being, Bao Qingqing was very satisfied with Chen Yang as her boss.
He was young and promising, handsome and wealthy, and kind to people.
Most importantly, he was generous, straightforward, and treated people exceptionally well!
A boss like this was impossible to find, even with a lantern!
As long as her boss didn't dislike her, she definitely wouldn't leave.
After showing Zhuo Wuyang and Zhuo Xiaogang their rooms and settling their luggage,
the group sat in the living room drinking tea.
"Brother Yang, I miss my sister. I want to go find her, what do you think...?"
Zhuo Xiaogang looked a little embarrassed.
Chen Yang slapped his forehead.
"Oh dear! Look at my memory."
"Xiaogang, why don't you just call your sister over? She can familiarize herself with the route."
"Since you two will be living here, she'll definitely visit often."
"Call her over so she knows the place."
"In a bit, we'll go to a restaurant for dinner. I'll host a welcoming banquet for you."
Zhuo Xiaogang cheered loudly and immediately called his sister, asking her to meet them there.
Zhuo Wuyang looked at Chen Yang.
"Xiao Yang, there's no need for a welcoming banquet, is there?"
"It's a waste of money; it's unnecessary."
Chen Yang smiled and persuaded him.
"Uncle, since this is your first time visiting my home, I definitely need to show my sincerity."
"Besides, you haven't seen my dad in so many years."
"A little sense of occasion is still necessary."
"When we head to the hotel later, I'll go pick up my parents."
"I can imagine that my dad will be extremely happy if he sees you."
"When you old brothers meet, you'll surely have a lot to talk about."
Suddenly, Zhuo Wuyang was also filled with anticipation.
"That's right. Not seeing each other for nearly twenty years truly feels like a lifetime has passed!"
Less than an hour later.
"Da da da..."
Bao Qingqing led a great beauty into the room, who walked in with a powerful aura.
She was tall with long legs and a beautiful face.
From beginning to end, her face carried a faint smile.
She possessed a strong sense of confidence, as if she was in control of the situation and feared no hardship.
The most striking feature, however, was her excellent figure: perfect, fiery, and hinting at a wildness.
"Sis, you're here!"
Zhuo Xiaogang rushed forward excitedly, like an overgrown child.
The fiery beauty poked Zhuo Xiaogang on the forehead and patted his shoulder.
"Not bad, you've grown again!"
"You look a bit sturdier."
Zhuo Xiaogang, looking sheepish, scratched his head.
"Hehe!"
In front of his sister, he seemed like he would never truly grow up.
The fiery beauty quickly walked up to Zhuo Wuyang.
She squatted down to check his physical condition.
"Dad, you're here too. How have you been feeling lately?"
Zhuo Wuyang smiled.
"Very well, everything is fine."
"Come, let me introduce you."
He pointed at Chen Yang.
"This is Chen Yang, the son of my sworn brother."
"Chen Yang, this is my daughter, Zhuo Hongmei, she is 25 this year."
"Alas! She still doesn't have a boyfriend..."
Zhuo Hongmei stamped her foot, interrupting Zhuo Wuyang.
"Dad, why are you talking about this in front of an outsider?"
Zhuo Wuyang didn't mind.
"Xiao Yang isn't an outsider. You should interact more in the future."
"Since you're both in Jiangcheng, helping each other out is always a good thing."
"Xiao Yang was very thoughtful to bring us to Jiangcheng this time!"
Zhuo Hongmei looked at Chen Yang.
"Hello, thank you for taking care of my dad!"
Before Chen Yang could speak, Zhuo Xiaogang jumped out.
"Sis, from now on, I've decided to follow Brother Yang. He is my boss!"
Zhuo Hongmei raised an eyebrow and looked at Chen Yang.
"Chen Yang, what industry are you in here in Jiangcheng?"
"Since you're recruiting my brother, what position are you planning to give him?"
Chen Yang was stunned.
He hadn't expected the beautiful woman to ask such a question immediately upon meeting him.
"I... don't have a stable career yet, but my next step is..."
Zhuo Hongmei's expression changed.
"If you haven't even figured out your own path, how can you arrange things for my brother?"
"My brother is honest and reliable; you absolutely cannot trick him!"
From the moment she first saw the villa, Zhuo Hongmei's heart was filled with doubt, even vigilance.
Pies don't fall from the sky!
Chen Yang claimed to be the son of her father's sworn brother, yet they hadn't been in contact for nearly twenty years.
Why did he suddenly appear now?
Just by looking at this villa, it was clear that Chen Yang was a typical Second-generation rich heir.
How many people like that were reliable?
A person who didn't even know what he wanted to do himself dared to promise her brother a future?
Was this a joke?
Nine times out of ten, he was simply interested in her brother's martial arts skills and wanted him to be a free bodyguard.
Helping him show off and act arrogant outside.
Chen Yang rubbed his temples.
He felt a throbbing headache!
He really didn't know how to respond to this topic.
Fortunately, Zhuo Wuyang spoke up in time, helping him out of the awkward situation.
"Girl, don't be like that!"
"Xiao Yang has good intentions. Regardless of the final outcome, we shouldn't blame him!"
Zhuo Xiaogang popped out again.
"Yeah, Sis!"
"Brother Yang is really capable; it's not what you think."
Zhuo Hongmei increasingly felt that Chen Yang was shameless.
Not only was her younger brother deeply taken in, but even her experienced father had fallen for his sugar-coated bullets.
They believed his words implicitly and were even deeply grateful.
Fine!
I'll endure this for now.
Once I find an opportunity, I must expose your hypocritical face!
"Chen Yang... brother, I'm really sorry!"
"I was... a bit arbitrary just now. Please don't mind it!"
"I trust you wouldn't take advantage of my naive brother, after all... he is your brother too!"
The last sentence was emphasized heavily.
Chen Yang understood immediately.
This was a warning!
"Sister Zhuo, you don't worry. Xiaogang is my brother. How could I possibly trick him?"
"I would trick myself before I tricked him!"
Zhuo Hongmei smiled brightly on the surface, but secretly scoffed internally.
"You little trickster, do you think I can't see through you?"
"For people like you, who isn't a 'brother'?"
"Isn't it your 'brothers' you trick the most?"
It was getting late.
After chatting for a while, Chen Yang suggested going to a hotel for dinner.
He planned to reserve a private room at the Shanhai Grand Hotel to host a welcoming banquet for Zhuo Wuyang.
"Why do we have to go to the Shanhai Grand Hotel?"
Zhuo Hongmei suddenly raised an objection.
"I think the food at the Moon Bay Grand Hotel is very distinctive."
"How about we go there instead?"
Chen Yang explained.
"I've never been to the Moon Bay Grand Hotel."
"However, I ate at the Shanhai Grand Hotel once during a class reunion."
"Besides being a bit expensive, both the taste and the environment are quite good."
Zhuo Hongmei shook her head immediately.
"I know Shanhai; it looks acceptable."
"But compared to Moon Bay, whether it's the environment, portion sizes, taste, hygiene, service, or reputation,
it falls far short."
"The key thing is... I'm a member there, so we can get a discount."
"It's definitely excellent value for money, and you can eat without worry!"
Chen Yang nodded.
"Alright, Moon Bay it is, my treat!"
Although Chen Yang intended to acquire the Moon Bay Grand Hotel, he himself had never been there.
The reason he dared to do this was entirely based on the intelligence provided by the system.
Since the intelligence said it was a sure profit, it definitely couldn't be wrong.
Chen Yang could use this opportunity to conduct an on-site inspection.
Zhuo Hongmei shook her head again.
"No way. You've helped us so much; how can I let you pay?"
"This meal, no matter what, should be my treat!"
Chen Yang was speechless.
Why did this beautiful woman always oppose him?
Where exactly had he offended her?
Could it be... that she was sent by the heavens specifically to mess with him?
