Chapter 126 - She has very unique green eyes.
"I\'m looking for a wife for my Li Zhiqiang in Beijing." Madame Bao said.
Bang!
Jing Lihua had dropped her cup. Everyone looked in her direction in shock. They knew Madame Bao was a clean freak and desired perfection. To have broken a cup in her home, not to mention a cup that was from her favorite collection and one of its kind in the world. They all looked at Madame Bao\'s expressions. To their surprise, Maame Bao was calmly drinking tea with a teasing smile on her lips.
"Sister-in-law, how could you be so careless? Are you forgetting whom company you are in?" Su Jiayi couldn\'t let go of an opportunity to humiliate Jing Lihua. She tried to sprinkle oil on the fire. "Madame Bao forgive my sister-in-law, She is not used to being in such tea parties. She is more of an office woman. She might lack adequate etiquettes for these occasions. Forgive her on my stance."
"I\'m sorry." Jing Lihua got up and wanted to get away from the situation. Whatever Madame Bao was planning was obviously going to be bad. Indeed, very very bad for Jing Lihua. Jing Lihua that this pair of mother and son was crazy. However, Jing Lihua was caught by Madame Bao.
"Where are you going?"
Jing Lihua wanted to cry. Let me go, please. Have mercy.
Madame Bao laughed at her expressions. "Sit clumsy child. I\'ll have a servant clear it and have fresh tea prepared for you. Don\'t be so impatient again."
Everyone was startled. To be treated so kindly by madame Bao after breaking. They all wanted to break their cups too and see what happens.
The next second Madame Bao glanced in Su Jiayi\'s direction. Her smile was no longer warm and teasing. But cold and sharp almost cutting Su Jiayi. "As of whether Jing Lihua has nice etiquettes or not, I know that very well. We had many chances to hang around while her stay in Hong Kong. And I had her accompany me to many parties."
Everyone gasped. Today was full of surprises.
"In fact, she is the one who brought the business proposal for which my son is here. You should all thank her for my presence here today." Madame Bao calmly said and took a sip.
"Madame Bao means that mining business was proposed by Jing Lihua? How come we never heard of this?" Su Jiayi was the most worried. Minutes ago she was flaunting about her acquaintance with Li family in front of Jing Lihua to scare her away. But it seemed like tables were about to be turned right now. This was something Su Jiayi could never have expected.
"The news will be released today. The media had been trying to guess where the location of the mineral deposits is. It was the Southern real estate that had been abandoned long ago." As Madame Bao revealed it, pin-drop silence dominated everywhere. Madame Bao laugh resonated. "Isn\'t it funny? The place you would least expect turned out to be the most valued one."
The whole city had laughed at Jing Lihua when she had invested in those lands. She was made fun of. Considering that it was the first thing she had done after taking the hold of her office, back then when she still hadn\'t earned merit, everyone had laughed at her saying she was an incompetent novice and end up bankrupting her company in less than a month. But now, things were changed. This outcome, no one could have guessed.
Regret and resentment were filled in everyone\'s heart as they looked at Jing Lihua with eyes that were about to cry blood tears. If anyone knew the actual worth of those land and they had bought it, their life would have been changed forever. People were too shocked to say anything.
"Madame Bao means those worthless lands are the ones that are...?" Su Jiayi was at a loss of words. She still couldn\'t believe it. She was a businesswoman. She knew the gravity of the situation. If Jing Lihua had entered a business association then she would be impeachable.
"You can\'t say they ware worthless anymore." Madame Bao had a small smile. "And that\'s how I met Jing Liua in Hong Kong."
"So Madame Bao, what about the wife for your Li Zhiqiang?" One of the middle-aged woman started the topic. She didn\'t care about any business and stuff. She had two daughters and if she could set up one of them with great \'Devil\', their life would be changed. Even though it would hardly come true, but it was worth a shot. "Have you found any suitable candidate."
"Actually I have." Madame Bao\'s smile was turning mischievous as she glanced at Jing Lihua.
Jing Lihua almost spat the tea back into the cup. She wanted to disappear. \'Li Zhiqiang where are you? Come and save me from your mother\'
All the expectant ladies looked dejected as Madame Bao said that. But they sighed, giving up. The hopes were already not hight, to begin with. "Who is the lucky lady?" One of the gossip lovers suddenly asked.
Jing Lihua wanted to kick that woman.
"What is her name? I would tell you that but I am afraid my future daughter in law wouldn\'t be pleased to know that I let others know her name." Madame Bao laughed. She was enjoying it very much.
"Madame Bao, don\'t be like this." A gossiper whined. "You do not need to tell us her name. Tell us something else about her. Like her physical features? Her education?" Women were dying with curiosity.
Jing Lihua really wanted to kill that woman. Don\'t put your nose in other\'s business or I might cut it half.
"Hmm, let me think." Madame Bao pretended to be thinking and teased everyone with her stalling. Okay, I\'ll tell you one thing about her. But nothing else. You must promise you wouldn\'t tell anyone about it."
"We promise. Now tell us." Of course, they all lied.
Jing Lihua ducked in.
"She has very unique green eyes."
Everyone fell silent. The next second, they all stared at Jing Lihua.
