Chapter 340 - 340 340 Don't Understand What It Means

340: Chapter 340 Don’t Understand What It Means 340: Chapter 340 Don’t Understand What It Means Chen Yang didn’t know the elderly man’s intentions and simply thought it was just a meal, so Chen Yang did not deliberately look for topics of conversation.

He just focused on eating.

The words exchanged between the two of them during the meal could be counted on one’s fingers.

After Chen Yang had his fill, he had no intention of staying longer; he stood up and went outside to find the elderly man.

“Thanks for the meal, the taste of your home cooking is pretty good, I’ll be heading out now,”

Chen Yang said with a smile, then left through the back door.

The elderly man watched as Chen Yang decisively left and was stunned on the spot.

What’s going on?

I’ve set up this atmosphere for you to further develop something with Xiao Cui.

And you left so soon?

The elderly man had always believed that Chen Yang was interested in Xiao Cui, which is why he arranged this meal—to set them up.

But who knew, Chen Yang had absolutely no such intentions.

He left as soon as he finished eating.

The elderly man was taken aback for a while, then turned and went back to the private room.

“What happened, why did he leave?”

The elderly man asked Xiao Cui.

Xiao Cui sat at the edge of the dining table, her face full of gloom: “I don’t know either…

Dad, did you make a mistake, he seems to have no interest in me…”

The elderly man shook his head repeatedly: “Impossible, that day with the lobster, his intention was clearly the same as Wang Lao Si’s, how could it be.”

“But he didn’t talk to me, he just left after eating.”

Xiao Cui felt somewhat wronged.

It was her first time facing such a situation, where she took the initiative to have a meal with someone, and the other party was totally indifferent.

“I’m not sure either, but it’s better if he’s not interested; that way, you won’t be wronged,”

The elderly man chuckled and then turned back to get busy in the store.

However, upon hearing these words, Kexin felt very disappointed inside.

Though she hadn’t had much contact with Chen Yang, for some reason, she took a strong liking to him.

And when she heard her father say that Chen Yang had intentions for her, she didn’t feel very resistant.

It was not easy to meet someone like that, yet he had no feelings for her, naturally leaving her feeling very disappointed.

…

Little Kexin in the barbecue shop thought through a lot.

But Chen Yang, who had left the night snack shop, didn’t think about anything.

He just wanted to go back to sleep and then get on with his business the next day.

To quickly help Gao Ya get the mine running, which would also make it convenient for him to ask her out…

For a mature woman like Gao Ya, Chen Yang’s desire was exceptionally strong.

So he had been looking forward to it for a long time.

“The village chief has already been notified, so the start of construction definitely isn’t far off; it’s just a matter of the next two or three days,”

Chen Yang returned home full of determination, driving his van, took a comfortable bath and then went to bed.

And sure enough, the next day, things happened just as Chen Yang had guessed.

The Gu Family sent someone over.

It was for an on-site survey and to fix the cables.

It might take some time to fix the roads, but the cables wouldn’t take long.

Since the mine didn’t need large machinery in the early stages, the Gu Family decided to pull the cables first, then mine and build the road simultaneously.

People from the Gu Family led a construction team from the county into Liuhe Village in a grand manner.

This was something Wu Kexin should have coordinated alone, but early in the morning, Wu Kexin insisted on getting Chen Yang to join her.

Chen Yang wanted to go as well, so he didn’t refuse.

He followed Wu Kexin to the head of the village to coordinate with the Gu Family people.

In the crowd at the village entrance, apart from the county’s exploration personnel and the cable construction team, there was only one person from the Gu Family.

Gu Ming.

Chen Yang looked left and right but didn’t spot Gao Ya, feeling a twinge of disappointment.

Nonetheless, he followed Wu Kexin upstairs to connect with Gu Ming.

“Hello.”

Wu Kexin took the initiative and greeted him.

“Hello, Village Chief Wu,”

Though Gu Ming was very enthusiastic when facing Wu Kexin, upon seeing Chen Yang, his expression immediately showed disdain.

However, Chen Yang didn’t pay him any mind.

Given his relationship with Gao Ya…

from a certain perspective, Gu Ming was still a junior.

He himself was above getting upset with him.

Moreover, since Gu Ming had already apologized to him and he had vented his anger, he was the one who had gained the upper hand, and even less inclined to quibble with Gu Ming over these matters.

“Gu Ming, how come your general manager isn’t here and only sent you?”

Chen Yang asked with a smile, full of curiosity.

Already not fond of Chen Yang, Gu Ming was even less inclined to talk upon hearing Chen Yang’s tone.

He completely ignored Chen Yang and started talking directly to Wu Kexin.

“Village Chief Wu, I trust you have already received the relevant notifications.

We’re not familiar with the local terrain and cable systems, so we would really appreciate your help in guiding us around to record information.

It will be useful for producing a plan and for the construction work,”

Gu Ming said with a smile.

“Mhm, I’m aware of that,”

Wu Kexin nodded and then turned to Chen Yang, “However, I haven’t been around Liuhu Village for long myself, and I’m also not very familiar with the surrounding cable facilities, so you should follow Chen Yang for this.

He knows much more about these matters than I do.”

Suddenly, Wu Kexin had passed the task of guiding entirely onto Chen Yang.

Gu Ming was somewhat taken aback.

On the side, Chen Yang let out a cold laugh.

Just now you wouldn’t acknowledge me, huh?

Now, I’m curious to see if you want to talk to me.

Chen Yang’s scornful expression made Wu Kexin also laugh involuntarily.

“Sorry about this, I need to handle some matters back at the village office, so I’ll take my leave first.

If you need any further assistance, feel free to call me any time.”

Wu Kexin said to Gu Ming cheerfully and then left straight from the village entrance.

As Gu Ming watched Wu Kexin leave, he felt awkward.

But in order to complete the surveying task promptly, he approached Chen Yang and initiated conversation.

However, his tone was lukewarm.

“Let’s go, lead the way.”

Faced with such indifference, naturally, Chen Yang was not going to engage with him.

He acted as if he hadn’t heard a thing, turning his head aside and nonchalantly gazing at the scenery in the fields.

Seeing Chen Yang’s demeanor, Gu Ming understood this was a perfect retaliation!

Gu Ming was seething with rage towards Chen Yang, but knowing Chen Yang’s fighting strength, he dared not get physical.

“Chen Yang, making you guide our survey was Wu Kexin’s express instruction.

Do you believe I’ll call her right now?”

Gu Ming said through clenched teeth.

Knowing that Chen Yang was ignoring him, he immediately brought up Wu Kexin.

But was Chen Yang someone who could be easily manipulated?

“Go ahead and call, I’d like to see who else will guide you without me.

I might not be certain about others, but I am sure no one from Liuhu Village will take you to survey.”

Chen Yang’s face was filled with mockery, not at all intimidated by Gu Ming’s threats.

Gu Ming’s confidence deflated upon hearing this.

After some thought, he put down the phone.

“Chen Yang, you also own shares in the Gu Family’s mining operation.

The sooner the mine starts working, the sooner you can get your dividends, so leading us to survey is actually helping yourself, too,”

Realizing that being tough was useless, Gu Ming softened his approach.

He not only changed his words but his tone as well – it was much more amiable.

“Heh, helping myself?

I merely own a mere one percent of shares; there’s no rush on my part.

Weren’t you the one ignoring me just now?

So why come to me with this talk?”

Chen Yang laughed coldly and still showed no intention of leading the survey.
