“Xiaoshan, is this your girlfriend?” Qiao Bin suppressed the surging jealousy and asked.

Only then did Chun Tao realize there were other people present, and she quickly let go of Long Xiaoshan’s embrace, her face unusually flushed.

She was no longer the timid widow of the past.

Having managed a four-star hotel for so long had transformed Chun Tao, who now exuded confidence.

Taking a deep breath, Chun Tao quickly regained her composure and asked, “Xiaoshan, your friend?”

“Yeah, this is my high school classmate Qiao Bin, and this is his girlfriend, Liu Shishi.”

“Qiao Bin, my girlfriend Xu Chuntao.”

“Chuntao.” Liu Shishi chuckled, “Your name really has a rural feel to it.”

Seeing how beautiful Chun Tao was, Liu Shishi felt unbearable jealousy and deliberately teased her.

Chun Tao smiled lightly, not taking offense, and calmly said, “Miss Liu, I am indeed from the countryside!”

Upon hearing that Xu Chuntao was a village girl from the countryside, Qiao Bin felt much more at ease.

He had been so afraid of remaining poor that he seized every opportunity to change his fate, which is why he pursued Liu Shishi.

...

Otherwise, a handsome university graduate like him wouldn’t have had any difficulty finding a pretty girlfriend with an ordinary background.

But that wasn’t what he wanted.

Though Liu Shishi may not be attractive, she had the potential to change his destiny and save him twenty years or even a lifetime of struggle.

No beauty could compare to a fortune worth millions.

With money, he could have any woman he wanted in the future.

Suddenly, Qiao Bin had an idea and said, “Miss Xu, I was just talking with Xiaoshan earlier.

I told him he should be graduating this year and offered him a job at my company, with a salary of twenty thousand a month plus commission.

But Xiaoshan wasn’t willing.

Miss Xu, you seem like a sensible person and know it’s not easy to find a job these days, right?”

Qiao Bin thought that Xu Chuntao, a woman from the countryside,

must surely be shocked by such a salary.

A strange smile appeared in Chun Tao’s eyes as she glanced at Long Xiaoshan and said, “Thank you for your kind offer, Mr.

Qiao, but our Xiaoshan really isn’t short of job opportunities, so we won’t trouble you.”

Qiao Bin’s expression stiffened.

He didn’t expect Chun Tao to respond like that.

A job offering twenty thousand a month plus commission was something people envied.

Her tone was extraordinarily bold as she claimed they weren’t short of job opportunities.

Not all jobs are created equal; while jobs paying three to five thousand a month are easy to find, a monthly salary of twenty thousand is top-tier in Hechuan City.

“Pssh, who are they trying to fool?” Liu Shishi had long lost patience and, pulling Qiao Bin towards the door, said, “Let’s go.

What’s there to talk about with them?

They think they’re so great just because they’ve graduated from Shuimu.

Hurry, my dad is coming.”

Liu Shishi dragged Qiao Bin out.

Long Xiaoshan and Chun Tao shrugged their shoulders, indicating their innocence.

Chun Tao covered her mouth and laughed, wrapping her arm around Long Xiaoshan’s and said, “Xiaoshan, shall we head back now?”

“Yeah, we’ve been out for quite a while; let’s go home and celebrate the New Year.”

“Sure, I’ve been missing the village, too.

I wonder how much it’s changed now,” Chun Tao said excitedly, revealing a little girl’s playful charm.

Long Xiaoshan walked out with Chun Tao.

They exited through the hotel’s revolving door.

They saw Qiao Bin and Liu Shishi, who were walking into the hotel with a middle-aged couple.

The man in the suit, whose physique had expanded horizontally and was as round as a ball, looked like he could have been cut from the same cloth as Liu Shishi.

Without asking, it was clear that he must be Liu Shishi’s father.

Since the earlier conversation wasn’t very pleasant, Liu Shishi pretended not to see Long Xiaoshan and Chun Tao, and dragged Qiao Bin inside.

However, Liu Hongyuan, who was leading the way, suddenly stopped in his tracks, and Liu Shishi bumped into him, holding her head and complaining, “Dad, what are you doing, stopping suddenly like that?”

Liu Hongyuan ignored her, turned his head to look for a few seconds, then suddenly shouted, “Chairman Xu!”

He quickly jogged over, bowed to Xu Chuntao obsequiously, and said, “Are you heading out, Chairman Xu?”

Chun Tao examined the rotund man for a moment and asked, “You are?”

“I’m Little Liu from Hongyuan.

You know, the last time the hotel’s exterior and the underground parking lot renovation took place, it was our Hongyuan company that won the bid and constructed it,” Liu Hongyuan hastily explained.

Even though he had some assets, he knew there was a significant gap between himself and a four-star hotel.

Moreover, since the hotel was previously owned by Wang Sihai, Liu Hongyuan surmised that whoever could take the hotel from Wang Sihai had to be a person with substantial influence.

As a small construction company owner, he was naturally very eager to curry favor.

“Oh, it’s Director Liu,” Chun Tao said with an apologetic smile.

“I’m sorry, I’ve been a bit busy lately and didn’t recognize you at first.”

“Oh no, Chairman Xu, it’s nothing.

You’re a busy person, managing so much.

Here’s my business card,” Liu Hongyuan said as he quickly fetched a gold-trimmed card and handed it over.

Chun Tao took it and said, “Thank you, but I’m on my way out and didn’t bring any business cards with me.”

“It’s fine, it’s fine, you’re busy, do what you need to do,” he replied.

Liu Hongyuan bowed slightly, standing there and watching as Chun Tao and Long Xiaoshan left.

Only when they were far gone did he straighten up, turned around, and saw his daughter and her boyfriend standing there, dumbfounded.

He frowned and said, “What’s the matter, why the dumbstruck look?”

“Dad…

who was that woman?

And why were you…

so obsequious towards her?” Liu Shishi stammered.

Liu Hongyuan walked over and whispered fiercely, “Don’t talk nonsense.

What ‘that woman’?

That’s the chairman of this hotel.”

“What?” Liu Shishi’s face went pale as if she had seen a ghost.

“You’re saying she’s the chairman of this four-star hotel?

Impossible, she just said she was from the countryside…

Oh.”

Liu Shishi stopped abruptly because she realized she had spoken out of turn.

Liu Hongyuan’s face darkened as he said, “What did you say just now?

How do you know what she said earlier?

Have you two spoken?”

“No, no,” said Liu Shishi.

“Be honest with me.

Did you offend her?

Chairman Xu is not someone to be taken lightly!” Liu Hongyuan pressed, knowing his daughter could be insufferably proud at times and fearing she had crossed the wrong person.

Although Liu Shishi was typically arrogant, she was afraid of her father when he was angry.

She panicked, “Dad, it’s not as serious as you think.

Just now that woman…

I mean, Chairman Xu’s companion, he’s a classmate of Qiao Bin’s, and we just had a few words.”

Liu Hongyuan’s gaze shot towards Qiao Bin as he asked sternly, “Qiao Bin, tell me what happened.”

Qiao Bin dared not hide anything and quickly recounted the events.

He also felt frustrated; Long Xiaoshan’s girlfriend was the chairman of a four-star hotel.

No wonder Xu Chuntao spoke with such authority when she said Long Xiaoshan wasn’t short of job offers.

Of course not, with a net worth in the hundreds of millions, would she care about a job offering twenty thousand?

After hearing the story, Liu Hongyuan seethed with anger and kicked Qiao Bin, scolding him, “Useless show-off, always trying to act cool.

Get over there now and apologize to Chairman Xu and her boyfriend!”
