After getting a defiant reply from the caretaker, Mr. Qin almost lost his temper. He opened his mouth and wanted to start chiding but he changed his mind before he said, "Let her in!"
It took a few seconds for him to react. Was the caretaker saying that Jiang Yao came for his shares of the ten percent that he owned?
Jiang Yao was only invited in by the caretaker, whose eyes were slightly reddish, after having waited at the doorstep for quite some time.
However, Jiang Yao did not put an impatient look on her countenance and pretended that she did not notice the tears welling in the caretaker's eyes. She brought Wu Zhong into Mr. Qin's house without any hesitation.
"What a surprise! Welcome, Miss Jiang! Your visit is really an honor to me!" Although Mr. Qin said so, he did not even have the intention to stand up from his seat and greet her. Even a moron could tell that he was not being friendly at all.
However, Jiang Yao put up a smile on her face as if she did not understand what he meant. Without Mr. Qin's invitation, she sat down opposite him. When she noticed that Mr. Qin was sitting up straight and had changed his sitting position once he saw Wu Zhong, she could not help but snicker silently in her heart. As expected, he was traumatised from his past experience and he knew that he needed to behave himself if he were to meet that man ever again.
She liked obedient people like him. She only had to give him a beating to settle everything and that saved a lot of effort.
"There's no need to be so flattered, Mr. Qin. If it were nothing to do with you, I would be too lazy to pay you a visit! Therefore, you don't need to ask me to stay for dinner. You don't deserve such a great honor from me." Jiang Yao was so arrogant the moment she opened her mouth.
