Chapter 126 Meeting Old Friend
Zhou Liying knew Lin Yue very well and why not, Lin Yue was once her best friend, a backstabbing betrayer!
Zhou Liying had met Lin Yue when she was in the sixth standard. Instantly, they clicked. They were the best of the best buddies. Zhou Liying helped Lin Yue with her studies and Lin Yue introduced her to high-class society.
Zhou Liying was thirteen when Lin Yue first introduced her to the circle of rich kids. The attire which Zhou Liying wore for that party was also of Lin Yue.
Together, they climbed the social ladder. They squashed many ladies under their feet to be the best high-class ladies. They were partners in crime.
Zhou Liying had planned to seduce Fan Yifeng, not only by herself but Lin Yue had supported her. She had helped her at the time when she had sneaked into the hotel room where Fan Yifeng was about to propose to Qin Yutong.
Then what had happened that Lin Yue had stabbed Zhou Liying, by changing sides with Qin Yutong, by telling her the plan of Zhou Liying, by calling her cruel in her so-called engagement party?
Zhou Liying could only guess that Lin Yue was feeling envious of her.
When Zhou Liying had become a proper lady, she was way too sexy and smart, catching the attention of the opposite sex to herself. Slowly, Lin Yue became her shadow. Men approached her only so that she could cupid them with Zhou Liying.
Lin Yue started to feel inferior to Zhou Liying and soon, hate took birth in her heart. She started to plan the fall of Zhou Liying, and for that, she approached Qin Yutong.
"Why did you stop? Bill this painting at my name." Lin Yue ordered the staff.
"You are not billing this painting, not until I talk with your manager. Call your manager right now?" Zhou Liying ordered, her voice was harsh and authoritative.
The staff at the cash counter shivered after hearing the authority in her voice. She stepped away from the computer. She pulled out her phone and hastily made a call to the manager, much to the disappointment of Lin Yue.
"Min Yue, call Liam and Joshua. Ask them that I want to buy this shop?"
Without wasting any second, Min Yue made a call to Liam and Joshua.
Liam and Joshua were part of the team of Zhou Liying. Liam was an expert in searching for any information in a small period of time, whereas Joshua was an expert lawyer.
Zhou Liying had purchased many businesses like this in haste, with their help. So, they knew what was expected from them upon hearing the simple words of Zhou Liying.
"Qin Tian, have you gone crazy? Do you think you can buy this shop? Do you have any idea of the value of this shop?" Lin Yue laughed mockingly. "Or are you trying to fake in front of me that you are powerful and rich?"
Lin Yue and her friend were looking at Zhou Liying with mocking expressions. They were waiting for her to make a joke of herself.
Zhou Liying ignored her, not willing to waste her words or breath on her.
Soon enough, the owner cum manager arrived at the store. He heard what had happened from his staff member, and not only that, he had also received a call from his broker, not long ago. He was informed that someone wanted to buy his shop at quite a high price, only if he cooperated.
"Are you the owner of this shop?" Zhou Liying asked him and the manager nodded his head. "You must have received a call from my lawyer and your broker. Have they given you all the information?"
"Yes, they did."
The owner was eagerly looking at Zhou Liying. From his broker, he had heard, the party willing to buy his shop was very strong. He\'d become rich instantly by selling his shop.
"I want to buy this shop at fifty million won if that\'s okay with you."
The eyes of staff members bugged out when they heard her. The condition of Lin Yue was no less. She failed to believe that Zhou Liying was buying this shop just like that, for a simple painting!
Mu Yuehan smiled when he heard her. If he was in her shoes, if someone was trying to get something he liked, he\'d have done the same.
The owner also looked at her with surprise. The amount which she was paying was quite a lot more than the value of his shop. He\'d be a fool if he did accept this offer.
Besides, he was already planning to sell this shop and shift to America, to stay with his son.
"I agree to sell this shop."
With an open mouth, Lin Yue watched as two foreigners arrived at the shop and did all the formalities for Zhou Liying. All the property papers of this shop were transferred in the name of Zhou Liying.
"How can you believe her? She is trying to dupe you." Lin Yue rebuked when she saw Zhou Liying signing a cheque. "Don\'t take this cheque. I am sure, this while bounce."
Zhou Liying rolled her eyes upon hearing her.
\'Was she always this foolish? Isn\'t she able to understand the powers behind me till now? Can\'t she see, I can buy any shop with the blink of an eye.\'
Zhou Liying scoffed and did a transfer of money to the owner using internet banking. He received the message and Lin Yue looked at her with wide eyes.
"How can you? How can you buy this shop with so ease? Tell me, who is helping you out, tell me?" Lin Yue stepped back in horror.
"No one is helping me. It\'s my power, Miss Lin. Did I not tell you I will be buying this painting? Now that, it\'s in my shop, so obviously, it\'s mine." Zhou Liying gloated and then looked at Mu Yuehan. "Throw these ladies out from my shop."
Mu Yuehan nodded. To the horror of Lin Yue and her partner, he picked them up from their shirt collar, like sacks, he threw them out of the shop. They landed outside the shop on their hips.
"I will not leave you." Lin Yue gritted her teeth and was about to stand when her friend stopped her.
"Don\'t be stupid. Haven\'t you witnessed her power? This lady is dangerous. You should not fight her, not until you know the name of the man behind her."
Lin Yue gritted her teeth at the advice of her friend.
But if only she knew, the power behind Zhou Liying was she herself. She had gained all this with her dedication and hard work in the last three years.
