Xia Guifang didn't have Li Xianghong's knack for seduction. Following her mother's advice, she sought out opportunities to connect deeply with Wang Xiaoqiang over three days, but sadly, aside from a casual touch here and there, he showed no interest in deepening their conversation, leaving Xia Guifang both anxious and somewhat disheartened.

That night, after finishing her tasks, Xia Guifang, refreshed from a wash, visited Wang Xiaoqiang's office again to look for an opportunity. However, when Wang Xiaoqiang opened his mouth, he only discussed the matters of the Chicken Farm, showing no interest in romantic matters.

"Qingcheng Grand Hotel is coming to pick up more stock, send them three thousand more eggs..."

"Hmm, I'll remember..." Xia Guifang nodded, sighing to herself.

"Also, if you find the scale of the Chicken Farm too small, we can expand it further, build two more large chicken coops, and add two rows of bungalows for worker housing..." Wang Xiaoqiang earnestly instructed, "You'll need to oversee the expansion too, since the yams in the fields are about to ripen and I probably won't be able to handle that..."

"Little Qiang, I can manage the Chicken Farm well. You don't need to worry..." Xia Guifang reassured him.

Wang Xiaoqiang nodded, gazing at Xia Guifang's increasingly perfect figure and ever more charming face, and he truly admired her, "Little Fang, you are really great!"

"Where am I great?" Xia Guifang blushed, looking down.

"Everywhere, you're capable and beautiful!" Wang Xiaoqiang grabbed Xia Guifang's hand, trying to pull her into his embrace.

Just then, a voice from the doorway rang out, "Oh, the lovebirds are whispering sweet nothings again!?"

Both startled, they turned to look. It was none other than Li Xianghong; in the warm May weather, the night did not feel cold. Li Xianghong wore a red dress loosely covered by a shawl, revealing her figure.

Xia Guifang, just pulled into his embrace by Wang Xiaoqiang, stepped back and glared at Li Xianghong, "What nonsense are you talking about? What lovebirds?"

"What's wrong?" Li Xianghong, who was quite obedient at work and absolutely followed Xia Guifang's management, wasn't afraid of Xia Guifang after hours and naturally didn't let Xia Guifang govern her personal affairs. At this moment, she sauntered in with a smile, looking at Xia Guifang, "Are you denying you two are a couple?..."

"Oh, you... your mouth..." Xia Guifang was extremely embarrassed and indignant, almost wishing she could tear Li Xianghong's mouth off.

"Is there something you wanted?" Seeing that the two women were about to clash, Wang Xiaoqiang asked Li Xianghong.

"Not really, just bored and wanted someone to hang out with..." Li Xianghong cast a lingering glance at Wang Xiaoqiang, then moved a few steps forward and sat down at Wang Xiaoqiang's computer desk, shrugging her shoulders in boredom.

The small shawl on her shoulders was just about to slip off.

"Come on, I'll keep you company..." Xia Guifang grabbed Li Xianghong and forcefully dragged her out.

Watching the two women walk out, Wang Xiaoqiang shook his head with a rueful smile.

In the following days, Wang Xiaoqiang began closely monitoring the two suspected plain crown, lotus cauldrons orchids that were unearthed from the depths of Great Green Mountain. That evening, to his surprise, he discovered that one of the orchids had sprouted a flower bud, and the next day, it had bloomed into a flower.

The flower unfurled into three petals, pure white and delicately simple, looking pristine and extraordinary.

It also had produced two more flower buds, while the other orchid also produced a flower bud that evening.

Thrilled, Wang Xiaoqiang immediately took pictures of the flowering orchid with his phone, then compared them with pictures he found on the internet at Mantou Mountain. The comparison was pleasing; the photos from his phone matched the flower shape on the computer, confirming that if the information on the computer was correct, these two orchid plants indeed were plain crown, lotus cauldrons.

Surprised and thrilled, Wang Xiaoqiang sent the pictures he took on his phone as MMS to Mr. Jiangg, who quickly replied confirming that these two orchids were indeed Plain Crown, Lotus Cauldron.

He really had struck gold!

A wave of joy swept through Wang Xiaoqiang as he composed himself, then he pulled out his phone, searched for Zhong Ping's number, and dialed.

"Hello, Little Qiang, what made you think of calling me?" The call quickly connected, and Zhong Ping's surprised voice rang out, warm and magnetic.

"Uh, Director Zhong... am I disturbing you?"

Zhong Ping didn't answer, and there was silence on the other end for a while, "Little Qiang, can you not call me Director Zhong? It feels so awkward. Just call me by my name..."

Director Zhong! Director Zhong!

Wang Xiaoqiang muttered to himself twice, it really was awkward, so he said, "Then I'll call you by your name... "

"Go ahead, it's fine."

"Zhong... Zhong..." Wang Xiaoqiang hesitated twice, but ultimately he couldn't bring himself to address this woman, who was almost twenty years his senior, by her first name and instead said, "How about I call you Sister Ping?"

"Hehe, you should have been calling me that long ago..." Zhong Ping laughed heartily.

"Right, Sister Ping, I've got two orchids here, Plain Crown, Lotus Cauldron. Not sure if your old man would like them..."

"Uh…" Zhong Ping was slightly disappointed at first, then again filled with excitement, "Plain Crown, Lotus Cauldron, that's really great, Little Qiang, bring me both of them! Don't worry about the price, I won't cheat you..."

"Sister Ping, you want both?" Wang Xiaoqiang reluctantly said.

"What's the matter, do you plan to keep one?"

"Yes, that was my intention."

"Then just bring one!" Zhong Ping said, "I'll send you the address, and you can call me when you get to the front of the villa complex..."

"Sure thing!" Wang Xiaoqiang readily agreed.

Not long after hanging up, he received a text with the address of Zhong Ping's garden villa in the Provincial Capital.

Upon receiving the message, Wang Xiaoqiang immediately loaded the blooming Plain Crown, Lotus Cauldron onto his Hummer, and then set off straight for the Provincial Capital.

Zhong Ping's Holiland supermarket chain was spread across major cities nationwide, and was now expanding into second-tier and emerging third-tier cities. Zhong Ping's personal real estate was also spread across the country, consisting of more than ten high-end residential properties or garden villas.

This was actually a way Zhong Ping invested in her early years, and if these properties were all sold now, she would have enough money to start another large company.

Zhong Ping's house in River City within the Provincial Capital was a luxury villa in Champs-Élysées, a well-known wealthy area, so locating it was not difficult. Wang Xiaoqiang arrived at the Champs-Élysées villa area by noon that day.
