Chapter 157: Unfortunate

Null finally realized what was happening.

[Is there a problem with the land?]

Ning Li’s answer was vague.

[You will know soon.]

It was not just a problem, it was a disaster.

Qinghe Bridge was situated at the intersection of three cities. Its geographical location was perfect.

If the Ye family could build a resort village there, they would make a huge profit.

However, that would only happen if the Ye family could finish the project and open it to the public.

However, the reality was that underneath the land where Qinghe Bridge was situated, there was an ancient tomb buried in it.

It was not just one tomb though, but a widely connected group of tombs.

The tombs belonged to ancient royalty, so it was huge.

The discovery of the tombs would fill the void of history and would be vital to archeological development.

Therefore, the government would order for the project to cease.

If that happened, all the initial investment in the land would go down the drain. No objections would be accepted because it was a government order.

In her past life, the Ji family had gotten the project.

She did not even have to investigate because she already knew the bidding price from the Ji family.

It was because of this issue that the Ji family had suffered a huge financial setback. That had given Ye Ming a huge opportunity to take advantage of the situation. He even forced the Ji family into a dead-end later.

Ning Li had always been a person who repaid the slightest favor with all she had.

The Ye family was ‘kind’ to her, so she ought to do her best to help the Ye family profit.

It would be a waste if the Ye family could not get the Qinghe Bridge project.

Null did not press on the topic.

[Ok. But do you want to inform Ji Shu about this?]

The Ji family was involved after all.

Ning Li sighed.

[No. He just signed with LY. Let’s keep him out of this.]

Even if the Ji family lost the bidding, they would only lose one project. It would not do any actual damage to the family. At most, they would only suffer a small financial loss for the next few months.

A few months later when the tomb would be discovered, they would be the ones laughing at the Ye family.

[Ok. I heard LY wants to sign you but you rejected it?]

[I’m busy with my entrance exam.]

A flawless reason indeed.

Null replied briefly, [As long as you are happy. Shrug.]

Ning Li put her phone away. Just when she was about to go out, she heard a familiar voice.

“Huihui, are you just going to let this go?”

Ning Li paused. She could tell that the voice belonged to one of the two girls who had tried to trap her in the janitor’s room with Sun Huihui.

Frustrated, Sun Huihui said, “What else can I do? It’s done! Should I trick Ning Li into going into the janitor’s room again? Why would she believe me again?”
