I am chasing a rough man in the 80s
Chapter 827: Suffering Humiliation

Chapter 827: Chapter 827: Suffering Humiliation

The second-in-command could understand some Cantonese as well, and even if he couldn’t, the disgustingly vile look in the other’s eyes was enough to make things clear.

He clenched his fists and imagined beating up that stinky brat after receiving the money.

Suizi’s hushed words promptly suppressed his anger.

"No matter what I do later, both you and the youngest must control your emotions. You absolutely must not conflict with the other party."

Upon hearing this, the second-in-command, though not understanding what she planned to do, still nodded his head.

The anger in his eyes had largely subsided.

"Mr. Frank, this is our company’s Deputy Director, Chen Hansui. She’s in charge of the final payment contract—"

Before the second-in-command could finish speaking, Frank strode over quickly and, reaching out for Suizi, greased her hand with his and did not let go.

"To think your godforsaken place could have such a stunning beauty, what a surprise."

Suizi deftly pulled her hand free, resisting the urge to wipe it with a wet cloth, and parried with him.

She’d get angry with anyone who said that Yu Jingting was a hooligan in his youth.

Compared to this scumbag before her, her man was the very epitome of integrity in his younger days.

"Mr. Frank, I’ve brought the contract. According to the terms of it, you were supposed to make the final payment yesterday. Today, I’m here on behalf of the company to discuss this matter with you," Suizi said fluently in English, taking Frank somewhat by surprise.

Her pronunciation was even better than a translator’s, shattering his stereotypical views of these inland people.

"The muscle man was the one who signed the contract with me, bring him out and you’ll get your final payment immediately, or... perhaps you’d like to discuss ’privately’ with me?"

Frank leered at Suizi, licking his lips lasciviously.

The youngest’s hand slapped down on the table, he just couldn’t stand it anymore.

This was too much, openly harassing the sister-in-law in public?!

Suizi glanced at the second-in-command, and immediately, the second-in-command kicked the youngest, who, biting his teeth, glared at the shameless opposite.

Suizi pretended not to understand the implications and began to speak:

"True, our contract does include a special clause that allows you as the party A to delay the payment after further investigation if you haven’t seen the company’s legal person."

Frank wasn’t really listening to Suizi’s words; all his blood was running south, and he was fiercely hot all over. The tacky print of his boxer shorts was embarrassingly hideous.

At this moment, he looked at Suizi with the condescending gaze of a predator, as if she were already his prey in the palm of his hand.

Perhaps his intention was too obvious, for even his subordinates felt it was a bit much; they nudged him and repeated Suizi’s words in a low voice by his ear.

Only then did Frank snap back to reality, grinning sheepishly at Suizi, "I didn’t expect you to be so knowledgeable, beautiful. Indeed, we currently have the right to refuse the final payment until the muscle man shows up."

Suizi lowered her eyes and snorted silently in her heart.

He kept calling him a muscle man, he probably harbored an insane jealousy towards Yu Jingting, right?

Looking at his short stature, not even as tall as she was, and considered short among Asian people, he probably experienced even more discrimination in the West, where people are generally tall and robust.

That’s the reason he was so verbally malicious towards Jingting.

Unfortunately, in Suizi’s heart, this guy wasn’t even fit to carry Jingting’s shoes, no, to be exact, he didn’t deserve the privilege of licking the toilet Jingting had used.

Suizi was internally raging but maintained a standard social expression on her face, smiling and engaging with him.

"We do indeed have some difficulties on our side. Could Mr. Frank be so kind as to pay us half of the final payment first?"

As Suizi spoke, she took off her sunglasses.

Long, slender fingers lightly lifted the sunglasses, tucking them into the collar with a silky motion, revealing an exquisitely sculpted collarbone that nearly drew Frank’s soul out of his body—everyone heard the sound of him swallowing.

It was the first time Suizi had removed her sunglasses since getting off the plane, and her swollen eyelids had subsided, making it difficult to notice the reddened rims of her eyes beneath the shimmering gaze.

Frank had already been so captivated by Suizi wearing sunglasses that when she took them off, the top-tier charm, tinged with scholarly allure, made Frank’s floral boxer shorts tighten a few notches. He had to shift his sitting posture to accommodate, his eyeballs nearly popping out.

Suizi’s beauty emanated from within, striking precisely at Frank’s aesthetic sweet spot.

Everyone could see what this scoundrel wanted now, and both the second and fifth underlings were scowling.

Even the usually composed second underling was becoming restless, casting an unhappy glance at Suizi as she boldly radiated her charm.

He had thought that Sister-in-law would have some kind of surprise tactic for the negotiation, but this was it?

If they needed to rely on Sister-in-law selling her charm to keep the company running, then it wasn’t worth doing business at all.

But remembering what Suizi had whispered to him earlier, the second underling had to suppress his dissatisfaction and continue to watch.

"My beauty, you’re making this hard for me. Business is business, as the contract states in black and white. With just one word from your beautiful lips, I’d have to fork over half of the final payment... I’d be at a loss."

As he spoke, he reached out with his greasy, groping hand, moving to touch Suizi’s face.

People around him were used to this sort of behavior and didn’t find it odd.

Some even had a knowing smile on their faces, which Suizi observed and internalized, only to become more resolute in her conviction.

If she had only 50% hope that Jingting was still alive when she walked in, the reactions of these people now gave her 60% confidence.

She feigned reaching for the contract to dodge the groping hand and continued to lure Frank with her eyes.

"It’s just half a day’s difference. Our boss will be back tomorrow."

All attention fixated on his floral shorts, Frank blurted out without thinking:

"How could he possibly be back tomorrow? Impossible—"

His lackey hurried to nudge him, and Frank realized he had misspoken, immediately clamping his mouth shut. Seeing that the beautiful woman in front of him was still smiling sweetly, he only blamed his lackey for interrupting.

It’s just a woman, why so cautious?

The smile at the corner of Suizi’s mouth grew brighter, looking to outsiders as though she were deliberately using her beauty to trade for resources.

Nobody knew the excitement in her heart, which had just been 60% confident, but at that moment, turned into 90%.

"In any case, without seeing Boss Yu, we absolutely will not make the final payment, as stated in the contract in black and white." Following this, Frank’s underling, seeing his boss lost in lust, stood up to speak.

"So, there’s no need to continue the negotiation?" Suizi asked.

Frank, seeing she might leave, glared fiercely at his meddlesome underling. Hadn’t he seen him wooing a girl?

"There’s still a need to talk, but there are too many ears around here. It’s hard to discuss clearly at once, so how about I take the beautiful lady out to dinner? After we eat, we can talk in detail," Frank stood up and reached out, wanting to shake Suizi’s hand.

Suizi, having achieved her probing goal, did not move.

The fifth underling stood up to shake hands in Suizi’s place. He had endured for so long and had initially wanted to break this guy’s claw to vent his anger. Instead, he felt something hard in his palm—what was this?!

"Damn—" The fifth underling’s curse was silenced by Suizi’s gesture, and Suizi smiled while making a shushing sign.

This act made Frank believe even more that this woman had tacitly accepted his unspoken rules.

"I won’t disappoint you. I’ll wait for you~"

Frank was itching inside, feeling that this beauty was just too good at the game. He laughed cunningly as he led his people away, his arrogant "I’ll wait for you" echoing in the hallway.

The fifth underling threw the key he had in his palm onto the ground and stamped on it hard. If he were anyone else, he couldn’t have tolerated it—who was being humiliated here?

Giving him the hotel key directly—was this telling Sister-in-law to trade her body for the payment?
