"Ah, youâre really polite. If youâre just a small company, then we wouldnât even count as workers."
"Exactly, exactly!"
Say what you need to say, depending on who youâre talking to!
Song Yalingâs classmates have learned a lot over the years since they left school!
The biggest lesson theyâve learned is to tailor their words to their audience.
They know itâs not good to deceive, but doing so brings them more benefits.
So, over time, they all developed this habit.
"Haha!"
Ling Youcai laughed heartily...
Meng Zhenzhen, hearing such excited laughter, knew he was in a really good mood.
Giving Hu Xiaobei and Song Yaling a glance, she quickly said, "Honey, do you remember I once mentioned a good friend named Yaling to you?"
Thinking for a moment, Ling Youcai glanced at Meng Zhenzhen and responded indifferently, "I remember, you said youâd contacted her; has she arrived now?"
With a gentle smile, Meng Zhenzhen quickly replied, "Yes! Not only has Song Yaling arrived, but she also brought her boyfriend along."
Upon hearing that Song Yaling has a boyfriend, Ling Youcai frowned and soon said casually, "Boyfriend? Thatâs perfect, we should meet him later! He must be quite a renowned person."
Looking at Ling Youcai, Meng Zhenzhen pretended to be mysterious and said, "Youâll find out soon enough, honey!"
...
"Whatâs meant to happen, is happening!"
Seeing them both walking towards him, Hu Xiaobei silently sighed.
After sighing, Hu Xiaobei looked at Song Yaling.
He clearly saw the distress in her eyes.
Hu Xiaobei knew that, like him, Song Yaling also felt particularly frustrated.
"The main event is here!"
As they got closer to Hu Xiaobei and Song Yaling, the surrounding people folded their arms, ready to watch the drama unfold.
They were especially familiar with both Song Yaling and Meng Zhenzhen, and thus knew the nuances of their relationship.
So they understood that Meng Zhenzhen bringing her husband over was definitely to ridicule Song Yaling and Hu Xiaobei.
They had carefully scrutinized Hu Xiaobei earlier.
But they couldnât detect anything special about him.
So they believed that Hu Xiaobei would surely be overshadowed by Ling Youcai.
As they thought this, they heard Meng Zhenzhenâs soft voice introducing, "Honey, this beautiful woman here is Song Yaling, the friend I mentioned earlier! And the one beside her is her boyfriend, named Hu Xiaobei, a very honorable farmer."
Ling Youcai looked at Song Yaling as Meng Zhenzhen introduced her...
In that instant, he felt that Song Yaling was truly beautiful.
"Wow, sheâs stunning both in appearance and figure, absolutely perfect! Iâll have to find an opportunity to see if I can win her over!"
Ling Youcai was definitely the lustful type...
Hence, he was contemplating how to find an opportunity to win over the perfect Song Yaling.
"That gaze is absolutely disgusting!"
Understanding Ling Youcaiâs intention, Hu Xiaobei guessed what that sleaze was thinking...
Narrowing his eyes deeply, Hu Xiaobei took a step forward, completely blocking Song Yaling from view.
Originally assessing the beauty, Ling Youcai frowned upon seeing Hu Xiaobei.
At the moment, he was particularly displeased...
But he didnât show it much...
Clearing his throat, he looked at the young man and suddenly said, "Zhenzhen, what did you say this personâs name was before?"
Meng Zhenzhen glanced at Hu Xiaobei and earnestly explained again, "His name is Hu Xiaobei, a farmer."
"Oh! I remembered!"
Nodding lightly, he looked at Hu Xiaobei and said, "Hello, my name is Ling Youcai. You can follow me in the future. I promise youâll earn much more with me than by farming in the village, even ten, twenty times more!"
Hearing this proactive offer, everyone standing by feeling envious!
They knew that if Ling Youcai was genuinely offering a hand, it meant hitting the fast lane...
Hence, they all wished to replace Hu Xiaobei...
Narrowing his eyes, Hu Xiaobei calmly responded, "Forget it, Iâm not interested."
"This..."
Everyone was stunned by Hu Xiaobeiâs response!
Because they didnât expect Hu Xiaobei to refuse so bluntly!
"Is he insane?"
"Exactly! Rejecting the offer!"
"Yes, indeed!"
After being briefly stunned, they quietly whispered among themselves.
At this moment, they really thought they had misheard.
Because in their view, no one with a normal brain would refuse now.
Ling Youcai was also shocked by the refusal.
He didnât expect Hu Xiaobei to refuse...
In his mind, even if Hu Xiaobei had other thoughts, he wouldnât refuse so bluntly.
But in reality, he did refuse that bluntly.
Ling Youcai was not a Lei Feng; on the contrary, he was especially greedy!
The reason he was helping Hu Xiaobei proactively now was to gain his favor.
He knew, once he earned Hu Xiaobeiâs favor, he could gain his trust.
Most importantly, it would allow him to get closer to Song Yaling.
He believed that Song Yaling was not interested in him now simply because she didnât understand him, or know how wealthy he truly was.
Once she knew, she would definitely be drawn to him, for frankly speaking, there isnât a woman in the world who can resist the lure of excessive wealth.
"What? Didnât you understand? Iâm not interested in your proposal!"
Seeing his bewildered look, Hu Xiaobei narrowed his eyes and repeated indifferently.
Upon hearing Hu Xiaobeiâs firm declaration, Meng Zhenzhen took a deep breath, looked at Song Yaling, and sneered, "Yaling, is this person you found crazy or what? Weâre kindly offering a hand, and he straight refused? Could it be that some people in this world hold grudges against money?"
At the end, she stared at Hu Xiaobei...
She thought the composed-looking Hu Xiaobei was a complete idiot because anyone with some intelligence wouldnât say no at this point...
Song Yaling picked up her sarcasm, and said calmly: "If my boyfriend has refused, he has his reasons. I wonât stop him!"
"Since thatâs the case, be a farmer for life then!"
She sneered again, then looked at Ling Youcai, speaking softly, "Honey, letâs not waste our precious time on them! Lots of other people are waiting for us!"
