The village beauty and me!

"No way, this woman is so arrogant, how could she possibly serve a man?"

"They must be relatives, or elders." Chen Huan felt there must be some misunderstanding here.

Although he didn't particularly like Xu Huifang, he didn't think she had no bottom line.

The fat man scoffed, "Have you ever seen a relative touch their own woman's butt?"

"Goodness, that hand is almost stuck in there."

Chen Huan suddenly remembered what Qiao Lingling had said before, that a pretty woman was treating several wealthy businessmen in town to dinner.

My mind started to wander.

He turned to Qiao Lingling and asked, "What was that beautiful woman wearing when she treated us to dinner?"

Qiao Lingling blinked and recalled, "A bodycon mini skirt, a white shirt, and her hair was pulled back, which made her look quite elegant, and she also had a good figure."

Then he puffed out his chest, "I'm well-endowed."

The fat man's gaze shifted from a certain spot on Qiao Lingling's body, then he clapped his hands excitedly, "Doesn't this match up?"

"This is how Xu Huifang dresses."

After saying that, he looked at her with a gossipy expression, got up and walked out.

"Where are you going?" Chen Huan asked, frowning.

The fat man blinked. "There's a private room between us. I'll go over there and listen in."

"Xu Huifang has such a strong personality, yet she's willing to sell her body and let older men touch her all over. Don't you think there's something fishy going on here?"

"What if they're planning to hire outside help and target you?"

"You forgot? Last time, we gave her a good beating."

"Just by looking at her, you can tell she's the kind of person who holds grudges and is petty. Aren't you worried?"

Chen Huan wasn't usually a gossipy person, but after hearing what the fat man said, he started to have some thoughts.

With a mixture of suspicion and curiosity, the two of them, the fat man and I, sneakily made our way to the private room next door.

Qiao Lingling couldn't help but laugh and scold, "You two are really perverted."

After the two entered the private room, they quietly closed the door.

Then move closer to the wall on the other side.

The materials used in the renovation of this small restaurant weren't very high-quality.

The walls of the partition room were hollow.

Therefore, in a quiet environment, it is relatively easy to hear the voices from the next private room.

A boisterous man said, "Ms. Xu, we know about the situation where you are."

  

"It's a remote little village, the only thing that's worthless is the grove of trees in front of it."

"There's simply no room for investment."

"If you can lease that forest to me, the loan will be easy to arrange."

Upon hearing this, Chen Huan immediately became furious.

He muttered and cursed, "You bastard, do you even have to covet my woods? Do you even have the guts to do that?"

Then came the familiar reply from Xu Huifang: "Boss Zhou, the woods have been contracted out to people from our village."

"But I have a different perspective. Although our area used to be considered a remote corner, isn't society different now?"

"Our area has beautiful mountains and clear waters, with forests and rivers, making it a perfect place to develop agritourism projects."

"With an investment of only a few hundred thousand, the profits can be quite considerable."

Upon hearing this, Chen Huan and the fat man exchanged a glance, both understanding the situation.

Xu Huifang came here to attract investment.

It really was all about the money.

Chen Huan still felt a bit disdainful.

He kept imagining Xu Huifang fawning over him under the blatant gaze of a lecherous middle-aged man.

For some reason, the initial feelings of disgust and contempt gradually turned into anger.

It wasn't anger directed at Xu Huifang, but rather at the other people in the private room.

That carefree voice rang out again, "Miss Xu, let's talk about the farm stay later."

"Your glass has been full of wine for ages, it's not right for you not to drink it."

Other men in the room chimed in, "Yes, yes, yes, drink a toast with Boss Zhou and down this whole cup in one gulp."

"Maybe if Boss Zhou is in a good mood, he'll just invest three or five hundred thousand in you."

"They're running a big business, they don't care about this. Even if it were given to you, what difference would it make, let alone an investment?"

What followed was a chorus of boisterous laughter and shouts from the men.

"Shall we drink from the same cup?"

"Isn't this really turning her into a hostess?" The fat man revealed a mocking smile.

Chen Huan felt a mix of emotions.

He frowned and muttered, "If a few drinks can attract investment, it would be a good deal for Xu Huifang."

"This woman is annoying, but she's really willing to go all out when it comes to getting things done."

"Bullshit, do you think it's just as simple as drinking?" the fat man scoffed from the side.

Then he leaned closer, winking and saying, "These so-called rich people in town, how did they get to where they are today, how did they become bosses?"

"Speculation, profiteering, cheating, not a single one of them is decent."

"Didn't you notice? There were several men at the table, and Xu Huifang was the only woman."

"Why are you constantly urging him to drink?"

"After drinking too much, Xu Huifang became someone's plaything."

"She's still thinking about investing, but she won't get a single penny. She might get billions, but unfortunately, it's not money."

At this point, the fat man revealed a lewd smile.

Chen Huan kicked him, "Are they all as shameless as you?"

The fat man grinned but remained silent.

At that moment, Xu Huifang's voice came from the next private room, "Okay, I'll drink this one with Boss Zhou."

"You said you'd invest immediately after drinking the wine. On behalf of everyone in Peach Tree Village, young and old, thank you in advance."

Xu Huifang's words carried a touch of tragic grandeur.

His speech was already somewhat slurred, probably because he couldn't hold his liquor.

The men cheered even louder and more energetically.

However, after finishing her drinks, Xu Huifang asked Boss Zhou to transfer the money, but the person next to her made another demand, saying, "We've only had one drink, don't you know good things come in pairs?"

"Yes, yes, Xu, you have such a high alcohol tolerance, have another drink."

"The entire Peach Tree Village will be grateful to you."

"They are so lucky to have such a good village official as you, who goes to great lengths to improve their lives and help them become wealthy."

"After drinking, Boss Zhou's investment essentially makes him a second father to everyone in Peach Tree Village!"

The crowd began to stir, as if someone was getting up to pour wine.

Xu Huifang tried to refuse vaguely, but his voice was drowned out by the clamor of the crowd.

"Damn it, they think they're something just because they have a few bucks in their pockets?"

"You bunch of bastards, who are you feeding and feeding?" Chen Huan stood up abruptly and unleashed a torrent of angry words at the next private room.

The commotion from the other side abruptly stopped.

Then someone cursed, "What kind of bastard are you? Looking for trouble?"

"If you're so capable, show yourself!"

After he finished speaking, someone came to the wall and banged on it.

Chen Huan was furious and threw a punch.

With a loud bang, a hole was punched through the double-layered plasterboard wall.

Chen Huan's fist landed squarely on the face of the person shouting across from him.

The person immediately lay down.
