Chapter 585 Waiting

After a moment of silence, the fat chef sighed and said with a bitter smile, “I want to obtain these things you mentioned, but I don’t have the ability to match it. Although my current life isn’t very good, it’s still relatively stable.”

Even though he yearned for the things Xia Fei spoke about, he knew that it would not be easy to earn this money, as it would come with great risks.

The fat chef did not think that he had the ability to do so. He was just an ordinary person, and even though he was curious about how Xia Fei got his money, he had self-control and was able to not think about it.

“There’s no risk,” Xia Fei immediately said. He naturally knew the worries held by this colleague of his with whom he had had many years of deep friendship.

“Would a good thing free from risk befall you and me?” The fat chef’s lips twitched, feeling as if Xia Fei was joking with him.

“Sometimes, things are just coincidental because of our special position.” Xia Fei spread his hands, feeling that his chances of convincing the other party were increasing.

He was only afraid that the fat chef would not give him a chance. Humans were greedy. The fat chef was not a saint, and he would not be able to resist such a temptation.

“How can I help you?” the fat chef asked softly.

Although he had drunk quite a bit, he was extremely clear-headed now.

“It has something to do with someone from our school.” Xia Fei smiled. He was also very excited right at the moment.

“With whom?” When the fat chef heard Xia Fei’s words, a figure suddenly appeared in his mind.

“You should understand what I’m saying, right?” Xia Fei cackled. He felt that the fat chef had a rough idea of who it was.

“I don’t know.” The fat chef shook his head.

“Chu Ning.” Xia Fei lowered his voice. From the shape of his lips, it should be those two words.

After school in the evening that day, Chu Ning planned to make a trip to Qinghe Village. Recently, her mind had been focused on the planning and development of The Parade. Cloud Shopping was not in her hands for the time being, so the value of Qinghe Village could not be reflected well.

“Lu Chao? Why are you here?” After getting into the car, Chu Ning discovered that Lu Chao was also in the car.

Zhang Bo, who was driving in front, said with a smile, “He wants to move and live in The Parade.”

“The location of the industrial park is very unique.” Lu Chao looked at the scenery outside the car window. He was thinking of many possibilities.

“There’s a lot of human traffic there. It’s wonderfully suitable for doing business,” Zhang Bo echoed.

Although the Soaring Clouds Group had lost Cloud Shopping, if the business model of The Parade could continue to operate normally, the profits would not be low.

However, Zhang Bo still felt a little regretful. Cloud Shopping was too perfect, and it had massive potential… “It would be great if the Soaring Clouds Group could hold both Cloud Shopping and The Parade,” Zhang Bo thought.

“You should have other plans, right?” Lu Chao said this incomprehensibly. No one knew if he was answering Zhang Bo’s question or asking Chu Ning this.

“What plan?” Zhang Bo asked, baffled.

“Let’s first settle the things on our plate. I don’t want any more accidents to happen,” Chu Ning replied softly. She knew what Lu Chao meant.

However, Chu Ning could not give an accurate answer now.

The truth would be too shocking, and it was merely speculation.

“Just thinking about it makes me feel fascinated.” Lu Chao clenched his fists, making creaking sounds.

“What are you guys talking about? They’re clearly not unfamiliar words, but why couldn’t I understand a single word?” Zhang Bo asked in confusion.

He couldn’t keep up with their thoughts.

Qinghe Village.

It was no longer as lively as before, but it was not dead either. What When they arrived at Qinghe Village, Zhang Bo and Lu Chao did not get out of the car. Chu Ning walked all the way to the Qinghe village council. During this process, she clearly felt some changes in Qinghe Village.

It was no longer as lively as before, but it was not dead either. What made Chu Ning feel rueful was that there were cameras installed at every intersection in the village.

Some of the residents of Qinghe Village were even a little wary of her arrival. This strange distant feel had only appeared when Chu Ning first came to Qinghe Village.

Wen An’s office door was wide open. What surprised Chu Ning was that every time she came, Wen An’s head would be lowered and he’d be dealing with a pile of documents. However, this time, he was different. He looked quite leisurely.

He was sitting on the sofa with a book in his hand, reading a novel in satisfaction.

Chu Ning did not stand on ceremony. She found an empty chair and sat down. She looked at Wen An and said with a smile, “If I hadn’t been here many times, I would have thought that I had gone the wrong way.”

“I’m just treating it as giving myself a vacation. I don’t have to be as busy as before for these two days.” Wen An put down the book in his hand and added a bookmark. As time went on, though he and Chu Ning had a collaborative relationship, they were more like friends who helped each other.
