Zheng Youming broke out in a cold sweat when he saw Lili insisting on tagging along to join the excitement—he still had another woman waiting back there!

Li Yundong was quite surprised to see that Zheng Youming’s mistress had come along. He muttered inwardly but didn't pay it much mind.

But as he followed the security guards to the sales center, the real show was about to begin.

A heavily made-up woman was stepping out of the Xin’an Garden complex. This woman happened to spot Zheng Youming chasing after Lili and overheard him panting, "Oh, Lili, don't be like this. I’m terribly busy with work, you know that, right?"

Lili sneered, "Did I ask you to accompany me, Boss Zheng?"

The moment Zheng Youming heard that and was about to explode in anger, he caught sight of his other paramour standing in the distance. His legs immediately turned to jelly.

Li Yundong’s eyes widened as he stood at the sales center watching the beautiful woman approach rapidly. She planted one hand on her hip, pointed the other finger at Lili, and shrieked at Zheng Youming, "Who is this?"

Zheng Youming’s face went pale. The sales staff secretly chuckled but maintained a look of absolute disinterest, eyes forward.

Lili squinted at him, "And who are you?"

The woman was clearly about to fly off the handle. "I am his girlfriend!"

Lili gave a cold laugh. "Oh? I thought you might be the wife!"

The woman promptly lost it. "And what do you think you are? A shameless tramp who dares to cause trouble here?"

Lili felt as if she’d been slapped across the face. Her gaze involuntarily flickered toward Li Yundong, only to see the young man standing far away, watching them as if afraid of being contaminated by proximity.

Lili’s heart twisted. She gave a bitter laugh, "Yes, I am a shameless tramp. So what does that make you? A very respectable tramp?"

Whoa. A chill ran through everyone in the sales hall, staff and customers alike.

What a vicious retort!

Su Chan looked at the two warring beauties, genuinely confused, and turned to Li Yundong, "What’s wrong with them? Why are they cursing each other the moment they meet?"

Li Yundong watched Boss Zheng with an air of schadenfreude, feeling secretly delighted. He lowered his voice and said, "It’s the mistress encountering the other mistress!"

Li Yundong stroked his chin and smirked heartlessly, "But which one of them is the mistress and which one is the other mistress? That will take some careful study!"

Su Chan blinked, asking with confusion, "Mistress? Other mistress? What does that mean?"

Li Yundong looked at Su Chan, sighed, and gently stroked the little girl's hair. "In this day and age, a pure girl like you is truly a national treasure!"

"But what does it mean!" Su Chan tugged Li Yundong's arm, pouting charmingly. Her adorable, guileless expression made the nearby salesman stare blankly.

Li Yundong lowered his voice and explained with a smile, "It means the third concubine ran into the fourth concubine!"

Su Chan murmured an "Oh," but still didn't understand. "Then why are they fighting?"

Li Yundong ruffled her hair. "Don't ask. Just watch the show!"

Su Chan covered the top of her head and shot Li Yundong a playful glare. "You’re annoying!"

While the two were talking, the 'mistress' and the 'other mistress' had already squared off, clearly ready for a physical fight.

The woman suspected to be the 'other mistress' seemed to realize she couldn't win the verbal spar with Lili, so she planted her hands on her hips and shrieked at Zheng Youming, "Youming, you need to make this clear to me today—who is she!"

Zheng Youming clearly intended to mediate, unwilling to escalate the drama in front of Su Chan. He plastered on a smile. "Oh, Mingming, she is Li Congli, the one I mentioned to you!"

Li Congli laughed coldly again and again. "When we were intimate, you called me Little Lili, and now you turn around and call me Li Congli? Zheng Youming, Zheng Youming, I finally see you clearly! Fine. From now on, you take your sunlit road, and I'll take my single-plank bridge! But I’m telling you, Zheng Youming, what you owe me, not a single cent can be missing! Otherwise, I’ll spill all your ugly secrets!"

The woman named Mingming, seeing Li Congli back down slightly, immediately became haughty. "Ha! What are you being so arrogant for? So you aborted twice for Zheng Youming? Big deal! I’ve aborted for Youming four times! And I haven’t been as aggressive as you, right, Youming? Oh?"

Mingming leaned on Zheng Youming’s shoulder, displaying a coquettish, flattering smile as if offering him a trophy.

Li Yundong’s anger flared as he listened. He hated both these women for having no self-respect and hated this man for being the height of shamelessness. He sneered and spat out a low curse: "Beast!"

Unexpectedly, several nearby salesmen and saleswomen also spat under their breath, muttering quietly, "Beast!"

Zheng Youming impatiently shoved Mingming off his shoulder. His gaze swept toward Li Yundong, and seeing Su Chan looking at him with cold contempt, he instantly felt like his tail had been stepped on. He roared at the nearest saleswoman in front of Li Yundong, "Xiao Bai, what are you waiting for? Take them to see the apartment!"

Xiao Bai flinched and quickly said to Li Yundong, "Sir, please follow me."

Li Yundong had entirely lost the desire to look at apartments. He turned to leave.

But Xiao Bai pleaded softly, "Sir, please, just help me out. If you leave, Boss Zheng will dock my pay later!"

Li Yundong was inwardly furious, but his expression remained placid. He followed Xiao Bai out of the sales center.

As soon as he and Su Chan left, they heard Zheng Youming’s furious roar from behind: "You damned slut, shut your mouth! I’ve tolerated you long enough today!"

The woman suspected to be the 'other mistress,' Mingming, sounded as if she couldn't believe it. She shouted loudly, "Are you cursing me?"

"Today I will not only curse you, I'm going to hit you too!"

With that, the sounds of slapping and wailing cries filled the air.

Li Yundong couldn't help but speak to the saleswoman named Xiao Bai beside him, "Is this how your boss treats women?"

Xiao Bai pursed her lips, her face full of disdain. "This is actually mild! Two months ago, when three of them collided, that was a true clash of titans! Any female employee here with a bit of looks has been harassed by him!"

Li Yundong bristled with righteous indignation. "Did none of you report him?"

Xiao Bai laughed coldly. "Report him? How? In this day and age, is there anything money can't fix?"

Li Yundong felt utterly choked up. "Hearing things like this is infuriating! Why don’t you just quit? What’s so good about working at a company like this?"

Xiao Bai sized up Li Yundong, then glanced enviously at Su Chan. "You two must be students, right?"

Li Yundong nodded. "Sister Xiao Bai, how could you tell?"

Xiao Bai smiled. "Don't call me Sister Xiao Bai; my name is Bai Xiaoyang. Just call me Sister Xiaoyang. Only students would have such simple ideas as yours. It’s so hard to find a job these days! So, you just endure it until you find your next place."

Li Yundong felt stifled, a knot of frustration tightening in his chest with no way to release it.

Bai Xiaoyang drove him and Su Chan in an electric cart to the base of a twenty-five-story building in the complex.

Li Yundong had already decided against living here, but now he was calculating how to tell Su Chan without crushing the little girl’s enthusiasm.

Arriving at the top floor, the twenty-fifth, Bai Xiaoyang opened the door to the model unit and said to Li Yundong and Su Chan, "Come in, let me show you around."

As soon as she entered, Su Chan didn't wait for Li Yundong; she zipped into the room and quickly began looking around.

Li Yundong smiled at Bai Xiaoyang. "No need for trouble, we can just look around ourselves."

Bai Xiaoyang didn't insist. "Alright then. Look around as you please; I’ll wait in the living room."

Li Yundong gave her a smile and walked into a bedroom, lowering his voice to Su Chan, "Su Chan, do you really want to live here?"

It had to be said, this model unit was decorated very stylishly, with a distinct Western flair. The bedroom was fully equipped with furniture and appliances. If it weren't for how disgusting Zheng Youming was, Li Yundong would have found almost nothing to fault here.

Su Chan was examining the wall closely. She sniffed the air and frowned. "There's a strange smell here!"

Li Yundong sniffed. "I don't smell anything!"

Su Chan shook her head, her expression unusually serious. "No, there's a very pungent odor!"

Saying that, she extended a finger and pressed it against the wallpaper.

As a cultivator, the force behind her finger press was significant. With that one push, the wallpaper ripped, and the wall beneath yielded, creating a small hole!

Li Yundong’s face went ashen. He thought the little fox was performing some sort of Vajra Finger technique and stared with wide eyes. "Damn, what are you doing? Is that some kind of finger-kung fu?"

Su Chan frowned, an uncharacteristic flash of anger on her face. "What finger-kung fu! Look at this!"

Saying this, Su Chan poked at the hole with her finger, then beckoned Li Yundong over.

Li Yundong leaned in for a look, then tentatively reached in himself. With a little pressure, he immediately discovered that the inside of the wall was practically like loose paste and mud. A slight stir, and the plaster inside came crumbling down in showers.

"Damn, what is going on?" Li Yundong’s eyeballs nearly popped out. "Even a shoddy construction shouldn't be this bad!"

Su Chan sneered, "I could knock this house down with one punch! How can people live here?"

"Heavens above, what are you two doing?" Bai Xiaoyang heard the commotion from Li Yundong and Su Chan, rushed over, took one look, and was instantly struck with terror, crying out involuntarily.

Li Yundong turned his face and sneered, "The quality of your buildings is terrible! You can punch a hole in the wall with just one finger?"

Bai Xiaoyang’s face crumpled. "You’re going to make me lose my job!"

Li Yundong roared in anger. "Losing a job is recoverable! But a building like this will cost people their lives! If their life is gone, can they get it back? Where is your conscience!"

Li Yundong’s anger carried an astonishing aura, and Bai Xiaoyang’s heart trembled. She couldn't help but think: Yes, a building like this will definitely cause a major disaster sooner or later! Why am I still staying here?

Her eyes flickered, and after a moment of intense inner struggle, she let out a deep sigh and shook her head. "Now that things have come to this, I won't hide anything from you. All the buildings in Xin’an Garden are like this. Other developers cut corners, but at least their structures are steel and concrete. Our complex's buildings are just cardboard stacked with sand and gravel. I suspect this building could collapse at any moment!"

Li Yundong was both shocked and furious. "How can such a thing exist? Can they even build houses like this? How do people live in them after buying? Isn’t there any quality supervision?"

Bai Xiaoyang laughed bitterly. "How do people live? As long as they sell, that’s all that matters! Who cares about the rest!"

Li Yundong’s rage boiled over, his teeth gritted. "How can they do something so immoral! Doesn’t this Zheng Youming fear retribution!"

Su Chan also yelled angrily, "Heaven should take him away!"

"Retribution? If retribution worked, why would we need police?" Bai Xiaoyang looked at him and sighed. "Forget it. You should leave quickly. I’m going to hand in my resignation letter shortly too. Your words today woke me up; I can’t stay here long. Oh, by the way, if you are looking for high-end rental housing, I can recommend a place."

"There’s a high-end apartment complex in Hongsheng New District, not far from here. The conditions and environment are excellent, the units are good, and the construction is solid and reliable!" Bai Xiaoyang said.

Li Yundong, simmering in his own anger, said to Bai Xiaoyang, "Thank you. I'll go take a look."

After the three of them left the building, Bai Xiaoyang sat in the driver's seat. "You two aren't taking the car?"

Li Yundong shook his head. "No, I’ll walk for a bit to clear this frustration out of my system."

Bai Xiaoyang looked at him, sighed, "Then I’ll get going first."

After she left, Li Yundong looked left and right, ensuring no one was around. He led Su Chan to the corner of the building’s back wall. He kicked the corner with his foot and sure enough, the kick created a gouge. When the painted plaster chipped away, cardboard and sand were exposed underneath.

Li Yundong felt a surge of pure rage shoot to his head. In a fit of fury, he slammed his fist heavily against the wall of the building: "Damn it!!"

"That scumbag!! He will face retribution sooner or later!!!" Li Yundong roared, unable to contain his fury.

But Su Chan, standing beside him, showed a look of shock on her face. She tugged Li Yundong’s arm. "Hey, hey! Look!"

Li Yundong followed the direction of her pointing finger. Where his punch had landed, a distinct crack had begun to appear. And this crack continued to spread outwards; in the blink of an eye, it had spread several meters wide.

Li Yundong and Su Chan looked at each other, their faces filled with horror.

"Is, is, is this building going to collapse? No way, did I just knock down a building with one punch? Is it really that exaggerated?" Li Yundong instinctively glanced at his own fist, stammering, "I’m not Ultraman!"

But then he realized, this was no ordinary building; in a place like this, what couldn't possibly happen?

Realizing this, Li Yundong grabbed Su Chan's hand and shouted, "Run!"
