Xiao Lingyu had come to the Phoenix villa to look for the managers. She had never expected to hear such a melodramatic story here.
Previously, she had asked someone to contact the manager, Zhang Yunkui, but he had rejected her. This time, she had come personally.
“150 million. On behalf of all the shareholders, I agree to sell Phoenix Villa to you!” Chairman Zhang said with a smile like an old fox.
Xiao Lingyu said with a smile, “Chairman Zhang, as expected of a businessman. You won’t suffer any losses.”
After that, the two of them bargained over the price. In the end, Xiao Lingyu took down Phoenix Villa for 120 million. Actually, Phoenix Villa was worth about that much in its current state.
Chairman Zhang had another request, and that was to try to keep the old employees of the resort. Some of the old employees had been with the villa from the very beginning. They had worked here for decades.
Those people were already used to working at Phoenix Villa, and they were also very conscientious in their work.
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, “Chairman Zhang, don’t worry. As long as these employees have good character, I will definitely keep them.”
The first thing she looked for in hiring people was the character. These people stayed loyal to Phoenix Villa from the start to the end, so their character shouldn’t be a big problem.
Of course, she couldn’t rule out the possibility that there were only one or two bad apples. She would have to go and appraise them.
Chairman Zhang’s expression relaxed a little. He said, “I’ve always heard that when Green Fresh recruits people, the first thing they look at is the character.”
Xiao Lingyu nodded.
Chairman Zhang then said, “Don’t worry, director Xiao. These old employees have no problems with their character. Of course, director Xiao can also go and investigate on her own. If there’s anything that requires our cooperation, just let us know!”
“Thank you, Chairman Zhang!” Xiao Lingyu smiled and thanked him.
Zhang Yunkui, who had been sitting on the ground listening to their discussion, had a stunned expression on his face. He was in a daze as if he had received a huge blow and shock.
Well, he had never expected that the father he had called for more than 30 years was actually not his biological father but the product of his mother’s infidelity. And she had to cheat on his uncle!
To his father, this was a huge betrayal and a huge injury. If it were any other man, he would probably have collapsed.
However, Chairman Zhang was vicious. Instead, he took revenge slowly. He raised a useless son as an act of revenge instead.
Zhang Yunkui cried and laughed.
Xiao Lingyu, who was about to leave, saw this and asked Chairman Zhang, “Chairman Zhang, is he alright?”
She used to think that Zhang Yunkui was arrogant and annoying. However, he was not someone she was close to, and she did not have much interaction with him. Naturally, she did not pay much attention to him.
Now that she had heard the man’s melodramatic background, she felt a little sympathy for the man.
Chairman Zhang coldly glanced at Zhang Yunkui and said expressionlessly, “It’s fine. Sorry for letting President Xiao see this.”
Xiao Lingyu did not want to meddle in other people’s business. She said to chairman Zhang, “Chairman Zhang, I still have something to do. I’ll be leaving first!”
Chairman Zhang invited, “President Xiao came from afar. I should welcome you and treat you to a meal.”
Xiao Lingyu shook her head and said, “No need, Chairman Zhang. I really have something important to do. Next time, I’ll treat Chairman Zhang to a meal!”
“Alright then!” Chairman Zhang said with a smile.
Xiao Lingyu left the office with her secretary.
At this moment, Zhang Yunkui, who was sitting on the ground, suddenly stood up and rushed towards Xiao Lingyu like a madman. His voice was filled with madness and despair as he shouted, “Damn woman, go to hell!”
The secretary was stunned and could not react at all.
Chairman Zhang reacted, but it was too late. He could not stop Zhang Yunkui from rushing toward Xiao Lingyu.
Xiao Lingyu was now a person with special abilities. When Zhang Yunkui shouted and rushed towards her, she had already sensed the direction of the wind. All she had to do was to avoid the blow.
Zhang Yunkui wanted to assault Xiao Lingyu. Zhang Yunkui was a 160-to 70-pound man. He was also angry and ruthless. He planned to smash Xiao Lingyu’s head to the ground. This would lead to severe concussions. He meant to injure or even kill Xiao Lingyu.
“Bitch, go to hell!” Zhang Yunkui roared again.
Seeing that he was about to hit Xiao Lingyu, the secretary cried out in shock, “Ah!”
However, no one expected Xiao Lingyu would easily dodge it.
Zhang Yunkui charged forward. He was propelled forward by inertia. Xiao Lingyu sidestepped the man easily. Zhang Yunkui was unable to stop because of inertia. The force of the impact made him continue charging forward. Then, with a bing, his head hit the wall.
His head immediately cracked, and blood flowed out. There was also a swollen bump.
His body staggered, and he fell to the ground. He saw stars, and his head was dizzy.
“President Xiao, are you okay?” Xiao Lingyu’s secretary finally reacted and immediately supported Xiao Lingyu and asked with concern.
Xiao Lingyu touched her shoulder, shook her head, and said, “I’m fine.”
Seeing that Xiao Lingyu was really fine, the secretary let out a deep breath. Then, she scolded Zhang Yunkui angrily, “Zhang Yunkui, are you crazy? Our president Xiao has no grudges against you. Why do you want to hurt her?”
Zhang Yunkui’s head was hurt by the impact. Waves of dizziness and pain came. He could only hear the buzzing in his ears and not the secretary’s scolding.
At this moment, Chairman Zhang angrily raised his hand and slapped Zhang Yunkui’s face. He shouted coldly and angrily, “Bastard!”
Zhang Yunkui’s eyes were sparkling from the slap, and his head felt even dizzier.
At this moment, Xiao Lingyu said, “Chairman Zhang, director Zhang’s behavior is a crime of intentional injury, right?”
Although she wasn’t hurt, his motive for hurting her was clear.
“That’s right!” Chairman Zhang nodded.
“Then I’ll call the police. Chairman Zhang shouldn’t have any objections, right?” Xiao Lingyu asked sharply. Xiao Lingyu only retaliated when someone offended her.
He and Zhang Yunkui only had a small business dispute and didn’t have any deep enmity. However, this person wanted to kill her.
Did she look like she was so easy to bully?
Chairman Zhang was slightly stunned. Then, he nodded and said, “No problem!”
After Xiao Lingyu called the police, Zhang Yunkui was taken away on the spot. With Chairman Zhang as a witness, the police department did not care whether the victim was hurt or not. They just took the culprit away.
As for Zhang Yunkui’s outcome… With Xiao Lingyu’s husband watching over the scene, he wouldn’t be seeing the sun any time soon.
