Wang Shi snorted disdainfully and returned behind Zhou Ming.
Zhou Ming laughed heartily, "Boss Zhang, it seems your security here isn't very good!"
"My brother Wang here hasn't even used his real skills, and your security guards are already down. It's really quite boring."
Zhang Sheng felt as if he had been doused with a basin of cold water, his anger instantly extinguished.
He trembled and said, "What exactly do you want? If you dare to be rude to me, I'll call the police!"
Zhou Ming smiled and said, "Boss Zhang, why call the police?"
"You were the one who called people to beat us. If you call the police, won't that be calling the police to arrest yourself?"
"I've already told you, I just want to rent your farm."
"Our family also has a vegetable project recently and we're struggling to find a place to cultivate them. Why don't you do us a favor and sell it to me?"
"You should know, our family is Huatian Group. If you want to resist us, then your company won't have a good outcome."
"Huatian Group?" Hearing Zhou Ming's words, Zhang Sheng's expression changed immediately.
Wu Tian whispered to Zhou Qian, "What is Huatian Group? Is it very powerful?"
Zhou Qian nodded and replied softly, "Huatian Group is a city-level enterprise. Although it's not a top-tier company, its strength is quite good. It's said to have assets of tens of billions."
"So that's how it is..." Wu Tian understood.
No wonder this Zhou Ming was so arrogant; it turned out he had this connection.
Zhou Ming knew Zhang Sheng was already scared, so he said, "Therefore, you'd better be careful!"
"It's a compliment that our family wants to do business with you. Don't refuse a good offer!"
Zhang Sheng was still afraid of Huatian Group, and for a moment, his back wasn't as straight.
He hesitated and looked at Zhou Qian, saying, "But... we've already prepared to sign the contract. It's not good to go back on it now!"
Zhou Ming smiled, "Preparing to sign means it hasn't been signed yet. What legal effect does an unsigned contract have?"
Having said that, Zhou Ming looked at Zhou Qian.
His gaze swept over Zhou Qian's perfect figure, and a glint of desire flickered in his eyes.
He spoke, "Beautiful lady, actually, I noticed you from the moment I walked in. You're the one renting the farm, right?"
"You must understand the situation here by now. I believe you know what you should do."
Although Zhou Qian knew she couldn't afford to offend Huatian Group, her personality wasn't one to easily back down.
So, she said with a cold face, "Young Master Zhou, I don't understand what you mean. All I know is that I came first."
"There are no rules without standards. Since I came first, I don't think you have any right to cut in line, do you?"
Zhou Ming continued to ogle Zhou Qian with a lecherous gaze and chuckled, "Beautiful lady, it seems you have quite a fiery temper."
"But a fiery temper is good; men like spirited horses!"
"You want to snatch my business. Are you prepared for the consequences?"
Zhou Qian felt extreme disgust towards Zhou Ming. She continued coldly, "Please clarify one thing first. It's not me snatching your business; it's you snatching mine."
"Since you're from Huatian Group, you should know that business requires rules."
"By breaking the rules like this, aren't you afraid of embarrassing your Huatian Group?"
If anyone else had said that to Zhou Ming, he would have long since lost his temper.
But with Zhou Qian saying it, Zhou Ming merely smiled, "Beautiful lady, you're being a bit much."
"Business is inherently about the survival of the fittest; where are the rules?"
"However, I'm not an unreasonable person. Since you, beautiful lady, want to rent this farm today, it's not impossible. How about..."
His gaze became more brazen, even lingering on Zhou Qian's long, black-stockinged legs, as if he couldn't wait to rip apart the sheer fabric.
He continued, "How about this: if you become my girlfriend, I'll let you rent this farm?"
"As long as you make me happy, let alone letting you rent it, I can even pay your rent."
Hearing Zhou Ming dare to speak like that, a surge of anger immediately welled up in Zhou Qian's chest.
She was never a woman to be easily bullied, otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to run her business so successfully.
Therefore, facing Zhou Ming's harassment, she directly rebuked, "Are you a beast? Is that all your brain can think about?"
"I'm telling you, you'd better speak politely!"
"Otherwise, no matter if you're the young master of Huatian Group or any other group, I'm not afraid!"
Zhou Qian's fierceness earned Wu Tian's approval.
He felt that women should be like this, bravely resisting harassment.
Otherwise, the other party would only become more arrogant.
Zhou Ming's expression instantly turned grim at Zhou Qian's response.
He said coldly, "It seems you're not giving me face."
"I've changed my mind. No matter what, I must take you with me today."
"You're being tough with me, huh? Once I throw you onto a Simmons bed, I'll see how tough you can be under me!"
Zhou Ming's brazen remarks made Zhou Qian's delicate body tremble slightly.
She hadn't expected that everything was going so smoothly, only for Zhou Ming to appear and disgust her.
Seeing that she had fallen silent, Zhou Ming felt the thrill of teasing a beautiful woman.
He grinned and said, "Beautiful lady, why aren't you speaking?"
"Could it be you've already been moved?"
"Alright, since you've been moved, why don't you come with me!"
Saying this, Zhou Ming actually reached out and groped towards Zhou Qian!
"Don't touch me!" Zhou Qian cried out, just about to slap Zhou Ming's hand away.
But at that moment, Wu Tian acted, grabbing Zhou Ming's wrist.
"We can talk, but don't touch, alright?"
Wu Tian said lightly, "Aren't you afraid your dirty hands will stain her clothes?"
Zhou Ming had never taken Wu Tian seriously, so Wu Tian's intervention at this moment made him pause slightly.
Then, he frowned and looked at Wu Tian, "Kid, who are you?"
"This has nothing to do with you. You'd better not meddle!"
"Nothing to do with me?" Wu Tian, though still smiling, had an aggressive edge to his smile.
"You want to touch my woman. If I don't say anything, am I still a man?"
"Your woman?" Hearing Wu Tian's words, Zhou Ming suddenly froze.
Zhou Qian's pretty face turned crimson after being momentarily stunned.
Although she and Wu Tian hadn't officially established a romantic relationship, Wu Tian had already possessed her body.
In other words, she was indeed Wu Tian's woman...
Zhou Ming broke free from Wu Tian's grip and sized Wu Tian up carefully.
