With a clatter, Sui Yi carelessly tossed the stick onto the ground.
Seeing this, Lin Yun imdiately strode forward, squatted down, and showed the man the photos taken on her phone, lodically stating, "I guess you don’t know much about the law, but I’m more than happy to explain. Just now you ca with weapons that pose a significant threat to the two parties involved, making threats verbally and physically. Plus, the unreasonable contract proposed by the gentleman earlier, legally, we can directly accuse you of conspiring to intimidate and defraud both parties, not to ntion the insulting threats directed at students... With so many witnesses, and I have photos and recordings in my hands, it’s basically no problem to sue you. If the charges stick, even though they aren’t very severe, you can’t avoid detention for a month or two, and you will have to compensate for so emotional distress... Oh yes, you also hit soone just now, didn’t you..."
If Lin Yun had been alone, the man would have undoubtedly rushed over to destroy the phone and beat Lin Yun to death, but Sui Yi stood nearby, glancing at him with an indifferent gaze that seed to regard him as an ant she could crush underfoot with a single step...
He was scared!
Especially with the severe pain in his stomach, rendering him weak all over, he felt like he was dying...
So he could only whimper...
And the man in the suit was already pale, his lips trembling, at a loss for words, until Sui Yi turned her face and said softly, "If he asks, tell him my na is Sui Yi."
A group of people had arrived with blustering arrogance, but they fled in a pathetic panic, like rats...
The bystanders on the street were still in shock, but once Sister-in-law Wang had respectfully let Sui Yi and her companion inside, the shock dissipated into utter commotion!
-----————
Although many people were curious and astonished, and itched to step inside the Qi Family store to find out what was happening, now was obviously not the ti for inquiries, so they continued to discuss outside.
Inside the store, it was quiet.
At the mont, Lin Yun handed the phone back to Sui Yi and, pressing her palm to her chest, took a deep breath and then exhaled. Her eyes and brows relaxed as she turned towards Sui Yi with a smile, "How was that, young boss? My performance just now wasn’t too bad, right?"
Sui Yi glanced at her with an indifferent look: "Mmm, not a bad study."
No matter what profession one pursues, knowledge of the law is essential, and if possible, one must be very familiar with it, after all, the law is the most authoritative weapon and shield for the spirit.
It was only after being directly asked by Sui Yi that Lin Yun reluctantly resud her role as a student and devoted herself to morizing legal texts...
Now that she had put it to use, she thought the feeling was... exhilarating!
However, her abrupt shift in energy had left the Qi family mother and daughter unable to recover, and the daughter seed a bit distracted, just staring at Sui Yi with a variety of expressions playing across her face...
Sister-in-law Wang was like soone who had survived a disaster and could not be more grateful to Sui Yi and her friend, bustling about with water and tea while calling out, "Yanran, Yanran, go get so snacks to entertain our two saviors..."
Sui Yi and her friend weren’t there for the food, and seeing Sister-in-law Wang’s state, they might even be invited to dinner...
"There’s no need, Sister-in-law Wang... we won’t eat," Lin Yun stepped forward and stopped Sister-in-law Wang, pulling her towards Sui Yi.
Sui Yi looked at Sister-in-law Wang, who, perhaps feeling embarrassed in front of such a pristine and refined young lady as Sui Yi, covered her swollen face with one hand.
"Miss, thank you for earlier... you see, since you’re here, I should really offer so hospitality..."
Qi Yanran had already brought two cups of water over, one for Lin Yun and one for Sui Yi. "Thank you," Sui Yi glanced at her, took the cup, then took a square scarf from her pocket, poured so water onto it, and applied it directly to Sister-in-law Wang’s face.
Sister-in-law Wang was taken aback and instinctively wanted to reject the gesture, but Sui Yi had already pressed her hand firmly onto the square scarf, then calmly withdrew her hand and said, "Our visit today wasn’t by chance."
Qi Yanran was still surprised by Sui Yi’s earlier actions and said spontaneously, "Sui Yi, thank you for your help just now. If it weren’t for you, they wouldn’t have been driven away so easily..."
She seed to think that Sui Yi’s earlier words had been made up just to scare those people away...
Sister-in-law Wang thought so too.
Perhaps only Lin Yun knew that it was true.
"Hey, Yanran, do you know this young lady?" Sister-in-law Wang snapped back to reality and looked at Qi Yanran in surprise.
"Yes, she’s a schoolmate of mine..." Just not in the sa class. Qi Yanran never expected the special girl she saw under the bus shelter would turn out to be so formidable.
Dominant, confident, and graceful.
And she also took care of others in subtle ways... Truly different.
A different kind of wealthy person.
Sui Yi didn’t react much to Qi Yanran’s words, just looking down, twirling the plastic cup... her eyes bright and deep, "Miss Qi, that wasn’t just a temporary asure."
"I’m not joking."
Qi Yanran and Sister-in-law Wang were stunned.
"You an..."
Lin Yun interjected, "We ca here today to buy the store. We can offer seven hundred thousand for it, and if you agree, I can process the transfer contract today, and the money can be transferred to your account imdiately."
When she said seven hundred thousand, it really wasn’t a temporary asure.
Sister-in-law Wang could scarcely believe it, while Qi Yanran, who had so education and independence, though montarily overjoyed, composed herself quickly, thought it over, and then took her mother’s hand, looking to Sui Yi for confirmation.
She wasn’t sure if she could trust this schoolmate, but...
This opportunity was too good to miss.
If they could seize it, the burden of 700,000 yuan could finally be lifted from her and her mother’s shoulders. If it slipped away, where could they possibly find the luck to evade Tianhua Company’s next snipe or another generous gesture from Sui Yi.
Even if it’s hard to part with... even if it’s a family heirloom...
Qi Yanran looked at her own mother and their eyes t, "Mom, shall we sell it... After I make sothing of myself, I’ll buy back a storefront, which will still be an asset of the Qi family!"
"Okay, okay, let’s sell, we’ll sell"—this ti her tone was very different from before.
After all, it was the difference between 200,000 and 700,000 yuan. (Suddenly, I feel like the price at the city center shouldn’t be this low ~~ Oh well, let’s just chalk it up to the peculiarity of currency back then, as I’m not familiar with it.)
Since the deal was already settled, Lin Yun didn’t beat around the bush and imdiately drew up the contract with Sister-in-law Wang. But Qi Yanran was more cautious and also worried about her mother, so she listened in on the side. While listening, she occasionally glanced at Sui Yi out of the corner of her eye.
She sat there, quiet and still, just observing their shop...
Appearing sowhat nonchalant.
Like an outsider.
It didn’t take long for Lin Yun to settle on a general outline of the contract...
There was still much to do afterward, including printing the contract and renovating the storefront...
Sui Yi had previously looked over the store. It wasn’t small, roughly covering more than four hundred square ters... It had been used by the Qi family to sell jewelry and craft items, but the decoration was quite outdated and apparently, the business wasn’t doing too well either.
Seeing Sui Yi frown, Lin Yun felt a sudden apprehension and approached...
Sui Yi stood up with his hands in his pockets, "Lin Yun, go ask the two neighboring shops if they want to sell. If they do, we’ll buy them at the sa price. If not, then forget about it."
Lin Yun nodded.
Soon, the two of them left the shop.
Sister-in-law Wang was sowhat nervous and on edge; "Yanran, do you think we were dreaming just now?"
Qi Yanran was also sowhat preoccupied, and even more bewildered, especially by the impact that Sui Yi had on her.
Did she just make an executive decision?
That she’s wealthy is not surprising. Yunfeng is full of wealthy students, and she’s seen richer ones too, but it’s different from what Sui Yi makes her feel.
...Too independent and decisive, almost as if she was the one doing business.
All of a sudden, Qi Yanran dismissed the thought—how could it be, they’re all students!
But if the two neighboring shops were included, that would make an investnt of 2.1 million yuan. Sui Yi’s family really must be wealthy.
——————
Sui Yi didn’t interfere with the business of the two neighboring shops anymore. She parted ways with Lin Yun at the door because she received a text ssage.
It was from Liang Qing, informing her that things on her end were almost settled, but she currently had no place to stay and was hoping Sui Yi could take her in for a few days...
Her words were a bit restrained and embarrassed.
Sui Yi looked at the ssage for a while and then replied with one word—okay.
After sending the text, she rembered the events of last night.
Ye Xiuling ntioned the old lady was invited by the neighborhood committee from her community to participate in so elderly activities and needed to stay at her place for a couple of days. Since the old lady’s health was almost fully recovered, Sui Yi naturally did not refuse.
But first, she ran into Ye Jue, no, the Tianhua Company of Huah Jue, and now Liang Qing’s situation...
Today seed like a lucky day.
Sui Yi put her phone back in her pocket and smiled faintly; she thought the other party could hold out for a few more days.
——————
After returning to the villa, Sui Yi entered the study and picked up the little bottle placed inside the box.
"It seems that person has already found out so of your origins and couldn’t hold back anymore, what a pity that I still don’t understand your depths..." With that thought, she twirled the small bottle between her fingers for a mont before placing it back on the desk.
She was curious to see how the other party planned to take it!
——————
That evening, as expected, Liang Qing returned to the villa. Sui Yi and Gong Jiu’s reactions were as ordinary as ever. It was Jiang Chenyu who would leave early and return late, only coming back around dinner ti. Sui Yi glanced at her but didn’t say much, only feeling that this woman was becoming increasingly inscrutable.
She gave her a feeling that was elusive.
"Miss Jiang is back, huh~~" Gong Jiu was quite wary of Jiang Chenyu, even more so than of Liang Qing. Seeing Jiang Chenyu approaching, she said with a beaming smile, "Where did everyone go? We couldn’t find you..."
Jiang Chenyu held a glass of water, looked at her, and her eyes, faintly lit, reflected Gong Jiu’s smiling face: "Miss Gong had ti to look for ?"
The implication being—do you have too much free ti? (To be continued. If you enjoy this work, welco to qidian to cast your votes and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation. Mobile users, please read on m.qidian.)
