131: Chapter 131 Recalling the Past with Sorrow
Su Nange leaned comfortably on the bed, still looking at the financial reports of Runfa Group in his hand.
From beneath him, a complaining voice came: "Can't you be a bit more serious?"
Su Nange didn't answer, just reached down and hooked an index finger.
A face that combined purity and seductiveness was currently tasting something.
Seeing Su Nange's movement, she wore a flirtatious expression and pulled her mouth away from what it was previously on.
Then she took the finger he offered into her mouth.
She thought Su Nange had some fun new trick.
But she didn't expect that this guy was actually doing it just to turn a page?
The woman instantly flew into a rage and kicked the world's biggest jerk away.
For Su Nange, the transition from heaven to hell took less than a second.
He wasn't angry either; chuckling, he climbed back onto the bed.
He crawled under the covers.
Liu Yuan's face, which had just cooled down, instantly flushed again.
Su Nange chuckled to himself; handled with ease!
After another intense battle, Liu Yuan lay on Su Nange like a gentle kitten. One couldn't see any of the "tigress" dominance she had just shown.
"Why are you looking at those again?"
Su Nange said helplessly: "I have no choice. The shadow war with Li Runfa has already begun. I can't give him a chance to breathe."
"Wanqing can't give us much time."
Liu Yuan asked again: "You seem to have been getting quite close to her lately?"
"Professional relationship!" Su Nange stated his position in just two words.
"Do you think she's pretty?"
"Not as pretty as you."
"I want to set her up with my brother."
Su Nange~~~
"Why are you telling me this?"
"She'd be your future sister-in-law; shouldn't I ask for your opinion?"
Damn, the way this girl says things really makes one's heart itch.
Would that work? Su Nange naturally didn't want to agree. He didn't want to play out some "Sister-in-law, don't look back, I'm my brother's" drama.
However, he still said with feigned indifference: "Go ahead then. But I should warn you, being a matchmaker isn't easy. If things go wrong, you'll be stuck in the middle."
"You're annoying! Who's a matchmaker?"
Su Nange changed the subject: "By the way, how are things at Tianyu Building? Did Li Runfa come to see you?"
"He did, but he just sent some low-level lackey. I told them to ignore him. Just as you said, we're refusing to cooperate!"
"Good. In that case, Li Runfa will likely be stuck with Tianyu Building on his hands."
"Without the celebrity effect of your Global Asia, does he think shopping malls are easy to run nowadays?"
"And while we're at it, let your Feifei get some good revenge too!"
Ding Quxiao was watching TV at home.
She didn't expect the Qianjiang Channel to also report on Runfa Group's Cloud Realm Heavenly City project.
Moreover, those reporters who loved drama even dug up the previous history.
It turned out that the City Investment Company's sewage plant was indeed a project decided upon long before Cloud Realm Heavenly City began construction.
However, Ding Quxiao knew that this was all Su Nange's secret doing.
After all, he had Miss Liu backing him up. Of course, Miss Liu also wanted to deal with Li Runfa.
The previous crisis with Feifei and Global Asia was more or less a mess created by Li Runfa.
Ding Quxiao chuckled inwardly; her husband was truly facing troubles both at home and abroad now.
Just then, the door to the luxury flat opened.
Li Runfa walked in with a face full of worry.
Hearing the TV content, before Ding Quxiao could say anything, he started cursing.
"Those damn bastards, I'll kill them!"
Ding Quxiao turned off the TV and prepared to go to her room.
But Li Runfa suddenly called out: "Wife, stay and talk with me."
Ding Quxiao sat back down, wanting to hear what kind of plan this guy had now.
But Li Runfa just smoked, occasionally sighing about his past glory days.
Finally, his tone shifted: "Wife, the reason I worked so hard was in the hope that you and our daughter could live a good life."
"Please, you must understand me!"
Ding Quxiao didn't know why he was suddenly saying this.
Then, he began to reminisce about the past again.
Back then, he was just a civil engineering graduate dog.
Like all students, he rushed to the construction site full of passion.
During that time, he outlasted batch after batch of young people who couldn't handle the hardship.
Then one day, he suddenly noticed that a female economist had joined the project department.
Long hair, a pretty face, and an air of youthful innocence.
On that construction site, which was no different from a Shaolin Temple, that girl was like a fairy.
Of course, she really did look like a fairy.
Ding Quxiao complained slightly: "Why are you bringing this up again?"
Li Runfa chuckled: "Wife, from that day on, I, a small team leader, became your number one simp!"
Hearing Li Runfa's sudden words, Ding Quxiao also felt like it was a lifetime ago.
At that time, Li Runfa, who was about 30, still had the drive of a young lad.
All day long, he thought about making a name for himself.
Finally, after two years, he achieved some small success and went out to start his own labor service company.
Relying on his experience with projects of all sizes, he also took on many construction site jobs.
Thus, Li Runfa drove his first domineering Land Cruiser.
At the time, Ding Quxiao sat in that huge off-road vehicle and kept complaining.
"You finally earned some money, and you spent it all on a car?"
While driving, Li Runfa put his arm around his beautiful young girlfriend. "You don't understand, this is how big bosses are nowadays."
Although Ding Quxiao said that, her heart felt warm.
Li Runfa's career became smoother and smoother.
For one, he was indeed a natural-born boss.
He wasn't afraid of hardship, worked from dawn till dusk, and was socially savvy, getting to know many influential big brothers in society.
Secondly, he had Ding Quxiao, a highly capable female economist, guarding his rear.
Runfa Construction Company was naturally established.
At their wedding, Li Runfa made a promise to Ding Quxiao, vowing to let her live in the best house in Qiantang City.
Ding Quxiao was very moved; she felt she had married the right man.
However, at that very wedding...
After seeing the beautiful bride, a hint of craftiness flashed behind the black-rimmed glasses of one of the guests.
Li Runfa continued to grow stronger, but he suddenly began to realize that a workshop and a company were indeed different.
Originally, he took on contracts by relying on his fists and throwing money around.
But now, for Runfa Construction to get big projects, the game was no longer that simple and crude set of tactics.
You can fight? There's always someone who can fight better.
You throw money? Others have more money than you.
The social big brothers who used to protect him had slowly turned into competitors as Li Runfa grew.
It was no longer possible, nor was there any obligation, for them to let him have a piece of the pie anymore.
Thus, the development of Runfa Construction began to stall.
However, the clever Li Runfa soon realized that how many projects you get isn't as important as how many relationships you maintain.
He made up his mind to work hard toward the goal of breaking into higher social circles.
And just at this time, a mysterious broker found Li Runfa, saying that a certain leader quite appreciated him.
Dressed to the nines, Li Runfa walked into a private club for the first time.
It wasn't magnificent, but it had a very restrained sense of pressure.
Just like the person sitting at the tea table.
Li Runfa shouted in surprise: "District Head Lü?"
At that time, Lü Guangming nodded with a smile.
He only said one thing: "I know you; you're quite a driven person."
Li Runfa immediately felt like kneeling to him. He wondered if there was a natural servility in the human body.
Or perhaps it was because it was his first time coming into contact with such a big figure.
Even before the other party had made any promises, he felt like he would never be hungry again.
Sure enough, in the following year, Li Runfa became unstoppable and became a prominent figure in the district.
But Li Runfa understood that all of this was thanks to one person.
Li Runfa never skimped on the gifts he should offer.
The leader was very satisfied, and everything was moving in a positive direction again.
However, when Li Runfa stepped into that club once more...
He was excited once again. This time, the promise was even bigger.
District Head Lü had been promoted to the top position in the district and had joined the city's leadership team.
And he gave Li Runfa some startling news.
The Wetland Park was being planned, but it still lacked some funding.
So they planned to take one of the plots of land and develop a high-end villa area.
Why would Li Runfa hesitate? Even if he had to give everything he had, he had to go all-in on this wave!
Everyone understood that this was a perfect opportunity to skyrocket.
However, in this society, there is ultimately no such thing as a free lunch.
The leader's request this time wasn't for money or "local specialties."
The leader said: "My mother has been bedridden lately. Could I trouble your wife to come over and take care of her for a week?"
