Chapter 40: Chapter 40: Come to Collect the Rent? (2)_1

"Phone number...

Han Jingnian’s expression didn’t change much, but his face darkened a bit.

The middle-aged woman didn’t notice his expression. Seeing that he didn’t respond, she thought he was unwilling to help and spoke again, "Sir, this is about the girl’s future. Even if she has nothing to do with you, she is your tenant after all. You can’t bear to see her wasting the best years of her life, can you?"

Now, not only did Han Jingnian’s eyes grow cold, but his face turned stern.

"Sir, we’re almost at the underground parking lot, and I have to take my child to school, so..."

Before the middle-aged woman could finish her sentence, the elevator door opened, and Han Jingnian walked out.

"Sir..."The middle-aged woman called out to Han Jingnian again, without giving up. Seeing that he showed no sign of stopping, she muttered at his retreating figure, "Such a cold-hearted man, not even willing to share a phone number..."

Just as she finished her sentence, Han Jingnian, who had just left, returned and read a string of numbers to her.

The middle-aged woman was taken aback. Realizing what he had said, she hurriedly took out her phone and noted it down.

By the time she looked up ready to say "Thank you", Han Jingnian had already walked far away.

...

Through the windshield, Zhang Te’s assistant spotted Han Jingnian approaching with a dark expression.

Who the hell did this to him so early in the morning?

Zhang Te’s assistant was startled and instinctively turned off the car’s "Burn My Calories" song, rolled out of the car, and rushed to open the rear door for him obsequiously.

On the way to the office, Han Jingnian’s phone rang three times and received dozens of message notifications.

Zhang Te’s assistant, covertly observing Han Jingnian, noticed that his expression grew scarier as the messages came in.

By the time they reached the underground parking lot, Han Jingnian’s aura was as freezing as the entire building was.

Since the morning meeting was about to begin, Zhang Te’s assistant followed behind the human freezer, straight to the conference room.

The initially lively conference room became deathly silent as soon as Han Jingnian arrived.

Facing constant inquisitive glances from colleagues, asking what was wrong with Han Jingnian, Zhang Te’s assistant could only shrug his shoulders, maintaining his "don’t ask me, I’m curious too" face.

Perhaps everyone was afraid to ignite his ire, they all spoke very cautiously throughout the meeting.

Yet, Zhang Te’s assistant noticed, Han Jingnian, who never used to zone out during meetings, was clearly elsewhere entire time.

Only when the meeting ended, it was him who reminded Han Jingnian. With a sudden awakening, Han Jingnian muttered an "Oh", then left the room after saying "Dismiss".

Back to the general manager’s office, after finalizing Han Jingnian’s workflow for the day, Zhang Te’s assistant knocked on the office door.

He knocked several times, but no one opened the door, so Zhang Te’s assistant decided to push the door open and enter.

As he approached, he realized that Han Jingnian, sitting at his desk, was not engrossed in documents, but was reading a text message on his phone.

Thanks to his 20/20 vision, Zhang Te’s assistant was able to clearly see the content of the text message.

"This gentleman’s last name is Yang. Doctor Yang studied abroad and earned two doctoral degrees in America. He just returned to China this year. He owns both a house and a car in Beijing, and earns more than 50k a month. Other than being slightly older, he has no shortcomings."
