Chapter 1155: The Boss
"Get lost, there's no place for you to talk here!"
Upon hearing the woman's words, Zhu Chang's face immediately darkened. His kept mistress would embarrass him like this?!
"You... you! Hmph!"
This dress was originally hers, how could this man be like this?! After being scolded by Zhu Chang, the woman wanted to speak but didn't dare, so she just angrily turned her head away.
To put it bluntly, she was just a kept woman. If Zhu Chang didn't want her anymore, she could only go back to her miserable past, which was absolutely unbearable for someone accustomed to a pampered life.
Therefore, she didn't dare to say much more. Even if Zhu Chang wanted to keep another mistress, she had to help him find one and couldn't say a word of refusal.
But when she saw this woman's beauty, she felt uncertain. Would Zhu Chang throw her aside once he got this woman?!
"Heh heh, what do you think?"
Seeing his little mistress turn away, Zhu Chang ignored it and instead looked at Zhao Yating with a smirk, his gaze full of possessiveness.
"Otherwise, spend a night with me and the dress is yours, no need for you to be with me."
Zhu Chang ignored Hao Jian behind Zhao Yating, rubbing his hands while speaking. He originally thought of keeping another mistress. After all, he had plenty of money, but once he saw Zhao Yating was sitting in a wheelchair, he gave up. He looked for mistresses to enjoy, not to find trouble by taking on someone needing care.
"At least this jerk has some conscience..."
The woman who originally didn't plan to interfere suddenly brightened up upon hearing Zhu Chang's words, murmuring to herself. It seemed this guy knew she was his woman...
"What's the matter with this woman?"
The woman's shy reaction made Zhu Chang confused, shaking his head privately. It seemed he really needed to throw this woman away, too strange.
"What do you think?!"
Zhu Chang's eyes fixated on Zhao Yating. He had waited over ten seconds, yet this 'disabled' woman in front of him hadn't responded?! This was the first time he encountered such a situation since he became a coal mine boss!
"Hao Jian."
Zhao Yating's face turned dark, her beautiful eyes revealing anger. If not for her good upbringing, she would have ignored her foot injury to stand up and argue with this Fatty. How dare he say such things in front of Hao Jian?!
Even without Hao Jian being there, she would still be very angry—this Fatty was utterly insulting her!
"Heh heh."
Seeing Zhao Yating's angry darkened face, Hao Jian was quite amused, letting out a peculiar laugh and said, "What's the matter?"
"Hmph!"
Seeing Hao Jian's oblivious expression, Zhao Yating glared fiercely at him and said, "Forget it, you deal with it! I want that dress, and if you don't get it from these two for me, I… I... I won't let you come to my house!"
"Leave it to me! I'll definitely get that dress!"
Hearing Zhao Yating say she wouldn't let him go to her house, Hao Jian immediately straightened his face and changed his attitude, righteously looking at Zhu Chang with a cold snort, saying, "Fatty, say it to me again!"
"Damn! Who the hell are you?! I'm talking to this beauty, none of your business?!"
While waiting for Zhao Yating's response, Zhu Chang, when he heard her call out Hao Jian's name, noticed Hao Jian for the first time. It was then he realized this woman had a man beside her.
Seeing the intimacy between the two, a blend of anger and jealousy flickered in his eyes. When he heard Hao Jian speak, it was as if he was a dog seeing a bone, directly going after Hao Jian without letting go.
"None of your business, get lost!"
Zhu Chang didn't want to make a mess here; this was Hua City, not his coal mine. If something happened, it would be hard to handle. Besides, those who could afford to get up to this floor usually had some financial strength.
Even if the brands this man was wearing were ones he looked down upon a dozen years ago, he wouldn't dare act rashly. After all, his bodyguards weren't here. What if the guy went crazy and started a fight?!
"Oh?"
Hao Jian sneered, pointing at Zhu Chang and said, "I thought you'd say something else, but it turns out you're just a coward."
"Forget it, forget it."
Right after saying this, before Zhu Chang could get angry, Hao Jian waved his hand, took out his phone, and dialed Spice Ginger. Since the owner of this commercial plaza used to invite him, Spice Ginger should be able to find the contact information of this owner.
He originally wanted to tease this Fatty a bit, but Zhao Yating's gaze was still unfriendly, so Hao Jian didn't dare waste time and decided to solve the issue quickly.
"Spice Ginger."
"Young Master Hao! At your service!"
At that moment, Spice Ginger was on a ten-thousand-square-meter plot of land with many subordinates beginning to point and discuss something. When his phone rang, seeing it was Hao Jian, he quickly pressed the answer button.
"Uh..."
How does this guy know that I have something to see him about?
Hao Jian couldn't help but mutter, then smiled and said, "I'm at a clothing store on the eighth floor of Henghua Commercial Plaza right now, can you help me handle this?"
Immediately, Hao Jian briefly explained to Spice Ginger what was happening here and described the store to him. After saying the last sentence, Hao Jian hung up the phone.
"If you can handle it, then help me out. If you can't, I'll have to take matters into my own hands."
Shaking his head, Hao Jian really didn't want to intervene personally, but if Spice Ginger really couldn't solve it, he'd have to do it himself.
"Old Zhang, something happened on your turf with Young Master Hao."
After Hao Jian hung up, he turned with a slightly grim expression to a slightly chubby man whose eyes gleamed with shrewdness, and said, "Can you handle it? If not, I'll bring my brothers to your place."
The person Spice Ginger called Old Zhang was the owner of Henghua Commercial Plaza and a major shareholder in Henghua Company. When he heard Spice Ginger's words, his face changed.
"Brother Spice, don't worry, I'll handle it!"
Old Zhang's face was a bit grim. Today he had specially invited Spice Ginger out to look at a piece of real estate he planned to buy. If it was good, he would buy it and develop a new commercial complex. But upon hearing Spice Ginger's words, his heart sank.
If anything happens to Hao Jian on his turf, that piece of land might as well be forgotten, and he might even lose his commercial plaza.
"I'll have someone take care of it right now."
After saying this, and with Spice Ginger nodding, he made a phone call.
"Hehe, if I sell this dress, there'll be a considerable commission..."
The sales assistant who had previously taken the dress to be wrapped was happily thinking about the tens of thousands of yuan commission she'd earn once the dress was sold. Under her careful touch, the long dress had already been meticulously packed.
"Beep beep beep..."
Just as she was about to hand the garment to a customer, her phone suddenly rang. She quickly pulled out her phone and glanced at it. It was an unfamiliar number, and out of curiosity, she answered it.
"Is this Nie Yun?"
"Who is this?"
"Your boss here!"
"Boss?!"
Hearing this voice, Nie Yun's face slightly changed. No wonder the voice sounded so familiar; it turned out to be her boss. But why was the boss calling her? She usually only saw him at the company's annual meeting!
"Old Zhang just called me, saying maybe a customer visited your store—a young man?"
"Yes..."
Nie Yun nodded timidly. The only person who could affectionately call her boss Old Zhang would be Zhang Lin, the owner of this commercial plaza. And that young man, if not mistaken, was indeed the first man who walked in?
"Deliver that dress to the customer. He is an extremely valuable guest, and under no circumstances offend him!" The boss's voice carried a note of respect, and as if remembering something, he chuckled, "If you handle this well, I'll award each of you ten thousand yuan as a bonus for this transaction and nominate you both as outstanding employees."
"Okay!"
Nie Yun, who had been thinking maybe there wouldn't be a commission, was surprised to hear the boss say this, tripling the bonus. She quickly replied and hung up the phone.
"Wow, why am I so lucky today?!"
After hanging up, Nie Yun had a smile on her face. She thought about it, hoping she hadn't left a bad impression on that valued guest.
Thinking this, she reviewed her interactions and found there really hadn't been any issues, so she was reassured.
As she pondered, she retrieved the carefully wrapped garment and appeared in the main hall, immediately spotting Hao Jian. She ran over quickly, with a respectful look, cautiously handing the bag to Hao Jian while saying, "Sir, here's your garment!"
"Hey, what's the meaning of this?! Wasn't this dress for us?! Why are you giving it to him? Are you blind?!"
The woman, seeing her dress handed over to the man by the sales assistant, suddenly became furious. Her sharp and sour face twisted with anger, shrieking out in a frenzy.
"Give me an explanation! Or else I won't let you work tomorrow!"
Zhu Chang, seeing this, was also very angry. Although he didn't lose his composure like his girlfriend, his tone was threatening.
"Our boss just called and told us to give this dress to this customer. He will also be a diamond member of our store in the future."
Nie Yun was not worried at all about Zhu Chang's threats. Since her boss instructed her to give the dress to this customer, there must be a reason.
"What?!"
Zhu Chang didn't know the store's owner, but he figured they must be far more prestigious than himself, a mere coal boss worth just tens of millions, nowhere near the stature of the store's owner?!
