Chapter 475 Worry
Chapter 475 Worry
As the incident with Zhiyuan's arrest settled down, the construction started once again and the investors they were on the verge of losing also got their confidence back.
Liao Yuan lied low for days since the cops were investigating the culprit behind the incident. The man he bribed didn't know his identity, so he knew he was safe. But he decided not to take any risks.
A month and a half passed by when the construction of two hotels finally completed. Mu Chuanli had given special orders to complete their project on priority basis.
After inaugurating the hotels came the time to finally start the business. On the other side, Keung had given some proposals to boost their market in the most popular tourist areas, which the senior managers found quite useful and strategic.
Though his relationship with his employees was at a stalemate, Keung was fully focused on nabbing the second quarter in his bag too. His offers were quite aggressive to lure the customers into choosing his hotel, but they were effective too.
Han Mingli was very pleased. "You are doing a good job, son! Look at them now. They look so embarrassed for underestimating us."
Keung was in deep thought.
Han Mingli sighed. "What are you thinking so hard about?"
"Why bro and sister-in-law choose those locations for their hotels?"
"Oof! Who cares about them? You are winning. Two months are almost over. Do you think they can overturn the remaining slightly more than a month left?"
He glared at him.
"This is bro and sister-in-law we are talking about! If they weren't as half as capable, then do you think Grandpa would have entrusted Han Corps to them? Ugh! Dad, just leave. I want to think!"
"You! Fine. Burn all your head you want. You are such a party pooper. I will go and enjoy myself!" He left in a huff.
Keung got a headache. Somebody then knocked on the door.
"Come in."
A young secretary then stepped in, bringing a file with her. "Sir, here is the file you asked for."
She said it with a little unpleasant attitude that he didn't fail to notice. Keung ignored it and took the file.
As he read through it, his brows furrowed. "What is this? The data is incomplete. You didn't include the customer satisfaction index of the last quarter. And where is the maintenance report of all the hotels?"
"Oh…I might have forgotten to add it."
He gritted his teeth. "You…If this kind of sloppy job you wanna do then why are you even here?"
She glared at him. "Only in the hopes that Sir Zhiyuan and Madam Xinyi will come back one day."
He froze.
"Do you think anybody wants to work with you here? In fact, we had thought of giving our resignations and joining Sir's Zhiyuan's company to assist him. We want a Boss who treats us like humans, not trash like you."
Keung angrily laughed. He knew the situation in the company and their attitudes towards him.
But it still hurt him that they wanted to go to Zhiyuan's side.
"Then why are you here? Hand in your resignation and leave!"
"Hah! We would have done that already if not for Sir Zhiyuan requesting us to stay put."
He widened his eyes.
"He told us not to leave your side. That's why we are here. Not because we are afraid of you firing us but because of Sir Zhiyuan's request! You should be grateful that you have a brother like him."
"Leave…Just leave!"
The secretary flared and cursed him.
Damn him!
She angrily left on her heels.
Keung banged his fist on the table.
Why…Why is it like this…?

Ever since that day An Yueqin met Chyou in the supermarket, the only thing she could see was Chyou's heartbroken expression after being treated like that by Zizi and An Guoting. It was extremely difficult to pass these days without knowing what was happening to her.
Is Chyou alone at home? Does Caihong take good care of her?
She knew it wasn't Caihong's fault as she had to struggle between managing S3 and Xiaosi in the hospital.
But An Guoting! You!
She clenched her jaw in a fury.
How could you be such a terrible grandfather to her? You dare give priority to meetings over her!?
Her blood was boiling in rage.
An Yueqin was pacing back and forth in her room. She didn't make a move all this time because she wasn't allowed outside apart from the twenty-first of every month, except for some necessities shopping too like that day in the supermarket. But now the freedom of that single day was also snatched away from her after Yunru and An Guoting caught her on the cliff that day.
She bit her lip hard. Chyou's worry was eating her mind.
What if…
She quickly discarded that idea. But she came back to it again and again.
Okay, let's do it. I will come back before anybody gets a whiff about it, she narrowed her eyes.

In school during lunch break, Chyou was with her classmates when she felt someone's gaze. She furrowed her cute brows. "I will be back!"
"Okay!" The other girls chirped.
Chyou stepped out in a play area and saw a woman wearing shades pacing here and there under a tree outside school gates.
Chyou hopped over to the guard's side.
"Sorry, Mam. But we cannot let you in. Who do you want to meet? Are you any kid's relative here?"
"That…"
Chyou beamed. "Pretty Aunty of the supermarket!"
An Yueqin - "..."
The guard looked at her. "Do you know this woman?"
"En! She is my Grandma! That's what Grandpa said!"
An Yueqin stiffened.
"Oh! Well then why didn't you say so before? We thought you were some suspicious person."
An Yueqin's smile faltered. Chyou grabbed her hand. "Grandma came to meet me!"
She dragged her inside while the guards kept an eye on her.
Under the big tree, Chyou excitedly asked, "You came to meet me, Pretty Aunty?" Her eyes were sparkling like a pearl.
Her heart melted seeing her beautiful eyes.
They are just like Caihong.
"I...I was just passing by. By-by the way! Can I ask you something?"
