Chapter 135 Money Baby! Jade Baby! Diamond Baby!
The practice for Subject Three resumed.
Ling Yue returned to her routine of learning to drive in the morning and swimming in the afternoon.
This afternoon, just after stepping out of the sauna, she heard Cheng Jiao say that Yu Shuo had brought over some jade materials.
Yu Shuo led a group of staff members carrying cases into the underground vault.
Housekeeper Shi Xiaosha was responsible for receiving them, Zhao Fang assisted with recording the inventory, and Qu Shu stood by to supervise.
"Oh my god, our Miss is just too rich, obscenely rich, unreasonably rich," Zhao Fang exclaimed while recording the items.
Housekeeper Shi Xiaosha gave a light cough, and seeing that Ling Yue wasn't paying attention to them, she whispered a reminder to Zhao Fang, "Don't talk so much, just hurry up and record."
Zhao Fang pursed her lips.
She couldn't help but be curious and wanted to ask Qu Shu, but seeing Qu Shu's serious expression, she had to suppress her curiosity and focus on her work patiently.
After the handover was finished, Ling Yue took the list to perform a final check. Once confirmed, she personally locked the door.
"Thank you for your hard work, Miss Yu. Would you like to come upstairs for a cup of tea?" With the work finished, Ling Yue offered out of politeness.
Yu Shuo shook her head and politely declined, "I'm sorry, Miss Ling, but I've been a bit busy lately and need to rush back to handle some work. Next time, next time I will definitely invite Miss Ling for tea."
"Alright then." Ling Yue didn't insist.
Yu Shuo left in a flurry with her people.
She was a little different today compared to before.
Previously, her smiles felt fake; beneath her mask of gentleness and virtue, there was an inseparable gloom.
But today, not only was her smile bright, but there was also a light in her eyes.
It seems there must have been substantial progress regarding the matter of 'real power'.
"Miss," Cheng Jiao said, walking up to Ling Yue while holding the phone, "The property manager called to say there is a gentleman named Huang Jingluo at the gate looking for you."
He came too? These two from the Huang Family were really interesting, coming one after another.
Huang Jingluo was probably worried that she was getting too close to Yu Shuo, which might hinder his own development. It didn't take much thought to know what kind of trouble she would face if she let Huang Jingluo in.
"Tell the property manager: no guests."
As for that chattering mouth of Huang Jingluo's, the Huang Family should deal with it themselves.
"Understood."
Cheng Jiao picked up the phone and relayed Ling Yue's exact words to the property manager.
At the gate. "Won't see me? How is that possible? Did you tell her my name? My surname is Huang, Huang, Jing, Luo!" Huang Jingluo emphasized.
The 185cm security guard looked down at Huang Jingluo and smiled apologetically, "I have relayed everything you said to the owner, but the owner said she won't see any guests."
"Impossible, you must have relayed it wrong. Ask her again for me!" Huang Jingluo ordered arrogantly.
The security guard said helplessly, "Sir, pestering me is useless. Why don't you call the owner yourself to ask if there was a misunderstanding?"
Huang Jingluo's train of thought was bizarre, "What do you mean? Are you mocking me?"
He didn't have Ling Yue's number! Yu Shuo had kept Ling Yue's information under tight wraps; he couldn't find it at all!
Having said all that needed to be said, and with Huang Jingluo continuing to pester him, the security guard warned him with a cold face, "Sir, this is a high-end villa area. Please do not shout here."
"You're just a pathetic gatekeeper, what are you acting so high and mighty for! What high-end villa can't I afford? Do I look like someone who is short on money!" Huang Jingluo had never been looked down upon like this before.
He was already angry about being rejected, so he just took it all out on the security guard.
The security guard had had enough. They were polite to the owners because the owners paid money, and they had to provide good service. But some nobody from who-knows-where who didn't even pay the property fees—why should he stand there and be abused?
The chest muscles under the guard's uniform flexed, "A 'pathetic gatekeeper' can still keep you from getting through this gate. Anyway, if you have money, come buy a house in our neighborhood. Once you buy a house, you can see the person you want to see. If you can't afford it, please don't stomp your feet here!"
After saying that, the guard looked threatening, "I'll give you one minute. If you don't leave, we will call the police immediately."
"You! Very good! I don't even care to go in!"
Bamboo Forest Residence, what a big deal! If it hadn't sold out so quickly back then, his dad could have bought a house here too! Tsk, what's so great about it.
Yu Shuo's car drove out from the gate, passing right in front of Huang Jingluo.
Huang Jingluo happened to recognize the license plate and immediately widened his eyes. He didn't even bother with the security guard anymore and immediately went to chase the car.
"Damn it! How did she get in? Yu Shuo, stop! Stop!" He cursed as he chased the car.
Yu Shuo saw Huang Jingluo through the rearview mirror, gave a cold smile, stepped on the gas, and soon left Huang Jingluo far behind.
Huang Jingluo stood in the middle of the road with his hands on his hips and cursed, "Yu Shuo!!! You, a person with the surname Yu, dare to compete with me? If I don't finish you off, I won't be surnamed Huang! And you, with the surname Ling, your judgment is skewed, you're blind as a bat to choose that bitch Yu Shuo and not me! One day you will regret it! You will all regret it! Bitches! Bitches! Competing with me ¥***&%!!!"
He kept up a stream of foul language, and in his anger, Huang Jingluo developed road rage while driving.
Seeing the yellow light turn red ahead, he drove like he was rushing to be reincarnated, not letting off the gas and charging straight ahead to save that one second. By the time he noticed the tricycle darting out from the side, it was too late to brake, and he crashed right into it.
The tricycle was just unlucky; it was driving normally on a green light when it was hit by someone running a red light.
After hitting someone, Huang Jingluo was shocked and scared, staying in his car and not daring to get out.
As more and more people gathered around, he blamed the ultimate cause of this car accident on Yu Shuo and Ling Yue.
If Yu Shuo hadn't competed with him, would he have been angry? If Ling Yue hadn't looked down on him and failed to recognize quality, would he have been so upset?
At this very moment. After the guests left, Ling Yue, who had happily returned to the vault, was admiring her beautiful large jade pieces!
"Mwah, mwah, mwah!" After kissing the jade pieces wildly, Ling Yue talked to herself like a pervert, "You are all Mommy's big babies~~ Oh my, look, look at this luster! This icy, cool touch!"
Caressing the icy, smooth jade in her hands, her eyes sparkled with happiness and beautiful light.
Remember. Never mind what to remember, just remember this. If one day you are destined to have a baby, then I hope it will be a Money Baby! A Jade Baby! A Diamond Baby!
Ling Yue was holding a piece of chicken-fat yellow jade, unable to put it down, when she suddenly saw the resentment value in the bottom right corner jumping wildly.
The font grew larger as her gaze locked onto it!
[resentment value: 65%] [resentment value: 68%] [...] [resentment value: 77%] [resentment value: 85%]
Ling Yue: ??? Which lunatic is it this time? Huang Jingluo? It's probably him; his mental fortitude is too weak to get this angry just because he couldn't see someone. He's actually more promising than his old man. At least in terms of providing resentment value, he is more generous than Huang Yingxiong.
"La la la~" Ling Yue took out the jade-carved walnuts, rolling them in her palm as she left the vault.
Wang Junqi had baked cookies. She hadn't even had a chance to replenish her energy after swimming today before Yu Shuo arrived. Right now, Ling Yue was biting into a crispy cookie, rolling the jade walnuts, watching a TV series, and lying contentedly on the sofa—she couldn't be happier.
Zhao Fang had finished her work and was currently helping Luo Shanshan organize the ingredients for dinner. Her curiosity finally burst forth, "Sister Luo, what kind of work does our Miss do?"
Luo Shanshan was carving a radish and didn't even look up, "Lots of things. Why are you asking about this?"
"I'm just curious, the Miss's financial resources are too astonishing." Zhao Fang put on an envious expression.
"Anyway, you wouldn't understand even if I told you." Luo Shanshan's hand paused while carving, "Um, could you please not talk while peeling garlic? In case your saliva sprays onto the garlic cloves, it's very dirty. Never mind, just get me a plate. Once you get it, you can head out; you don't need to help me anymore, thanks!"
Zhao Fang: "..." She cursed 'idiot' under her breath, threw the garlic cloves she was holding onto the island, rolled her eyes, and walked out.
Not long after she left, Qu Shu walked in, "Was that Zhao Fang just now? What was she chatting to you about again?"
Luo Shanshan was focused on carving when Qu Shu asked her that. She looked up abruptly, full of confusion, "Eh, that's right. What was she just saying to me? I forgot, probably nothing important."
Qu Shu solemnly instructed Luo Shanshan, "From now on, for kitchen work, it's better not to let others help. The chef who cooks for the employees has already arrived today. If you let others help again, people will start gossiping."
Luo Shanshan nodded, "I know. That Zhao Fang is too enthusiastic; she insisted on helping me. Before, she even helped the cleaning lady clean, saying she had too little work on her hands. I reckon she's afraid that if she has nothing to do, she'll be mistaken for slacking off and fears she'll be fired."
"That's true!" Qu Shu clicked her tongue. Who would want to lose this job? At least she didn't.
