Such a Rude and Noisy Woman

Chapter 109 Jill

"Okay, cousin. You'd better go inside the house first, " Carl said after taking a look at Rachel.

When Hiram and his companions got out of the cars, they found a middle-aged man with his hair

combed back waiting in front of the exquisite two-story farmhouse.

"Welcome, Mr. Rong. The journey must have been tiring. Please come on in, " the man said, before

bowing to Hiram and warmly leading them into the house.

He was a local property developer who, upon hearing that some influential people were coming to town

from H City, volunteered to receive them on behalf of the local real estate circle. Since he happened to

own a farmhouse at the foot of the mountain, the leader of the real estate circle agreed that he should

do it.

"Mr. Rong, my name is John Zhang. I'm a small local property developer. My leader asked me to

receive you. If you need anything, please feel free to ask me. Although it's a remote place, it doesn't

lack anything, " John said.

Hiram responded with a nod before taking a seat. Once Hiram and the nine other guests had been

seated, John brought a young girl in front of them and said, "This is my sister's daughter, Jill. She's

working for me during the summer vacation. Please tell her what you want to eat."

Jill was full of youth and vitality as she handed out several copies of the menu to them. Then, with a

sweet smile on her face, she said, "Dear sirs, you can take a look at the menu. All the specialty dishes

you can get here are already being prepared, and they'll be ready in a few more minutes. If you want to

eat anything else, please feel free to tell me."

Although Jill was just 18 years old, she looked beautiful and mature. Just her perfect body shape alone

would deceive people into thinking that she was much older than she really was.

Daniel lowered his head with a snicker and winked at Gary, wanting him to check Jill out. But Gary, who

wasn't as audacious as Daniel, quickly lowered his head.

"Mr. Rong, it's the first time you've come to this humble place. I welcome you on behalf of all the

villagers. My uncle told me that if this project succeeds, all the villages around Cliff Mountain would

benefit, and the children would also have easier access to schools. So, I want to express my sincere

thanks to you on behalf of all villagers, "

Jill told Hiram while everyone else was busy ordering.

"Not at all. We're businessmen and we seek profit. This project just happens to be a mutually beneficial

one. You're welcome." Hiram put down the menu and said, "Just serve us the dishes you would

recommend. And we would like to have some tea."

accommodations in such a remote village.

Jill nodded at Hiram and went into the kitchen.

After Jill left them, Chad looked at Daniel with a frown and asked, "Bro, why are you laughing?"

Daniel turned to Chad and said with a shrug, "Was I laughing? Oh, something funny just suddenly

occurred to me." Then, he turned to Hiram and said, "Hiram, where is Rachel? Didn't she come with

you?"

Hiram calmly answered, "She's still asleep in the car."

Hiram knew that he was the smartest person among these ten people. He was the main director of this

project. Therefore, nothing could be hidden from him.

Daniel coughed and lowered his head when he heard Hiram's words. However, Gary suddenly became

excited and poked Daniel in the waist before whispering, "You do the dishes for a week!"

A moment later, Jill came out of the kitchen with a pot of tea.

After serving the tea to the guests, she went into the kitchen again and came back with a box. Then,

she put the box on the table and said, "Mr. Rong, I don't have too much to offer. This is a gift that I

spent a month on. Although it isn't worth a penny, it represents my good wishes for you. Please accept

it."

As she spoke, she opened the box. A steamship made of straws appeared before their eyes.

"Wow! Great craft. You made this all by yourself?" Hiram asked. Daniel dragged the box closer to him

and began to observe the craft. The steamship was a wonderful piece of art.

"Yes, I did. Since I didn't know when you would come, I started doing it a month ago. I only finished it

last night, " Jill answered, rubbing her chapped and red hands together.

Hiram took another look at the steamship and said, "It is very good. It can even be put on display at an

exhibition. Thank you, Jill."

Jill blushed immediately when she heard Hiram's compliments. She nodded at him and said, "The

dishes should be ready now. Excuse me."

After Daniel finished observing the steamship, Chad and Gary shifted closer to him and took turns

taking a look at it. They hadn't seen such a fine piece of craft after all the technology that had come into

their lives.

Soon, all the dishes were served.

However, some of the dishes were game animals and wild vegetables from the local mountains, which

were new to them, so Jill stood by and started to introduce these dishes to her guests.

"Jill, please sit down and enjoy the food with us, " Hiram said to Jill politely, noticing her standing

awkwardly beside them.

He fixed his eyes on the vacant seat between Daniel and Gary, expecting her to sit there. However, Jill

nodded at Hiram and took a seat beside him.

"Mr. Rong, it's very kind of you. You're not like all the other businessmen who like to put on airs, " Jill

said with a sweet smile. Then, she dragged her chair closer to Hiram, presenting the innocent and

lively manner of a village girl.

Daniel laughed and said, "Yes, you're right. Hiram is wealthy, but he has never treated us differently

based on our family background."

Although Daniel was laughing, he was telling the truth. Hiram never sought personal privileges when he

was with them, Except for this time when he had brought a woman with him.

"I knew it. Mr. Rong isn't one of those people who looks down on us villagers, " Jill said, putting a piece

of rabbit meat onto Hiram's plate.

However, Jill's appreciation embarrassed Hiram and made it harder for him to ask her to change her

seat.

As a matter of fact, he had been reserving the vacant seat beside him for Rachel, who was still asleep

in the car. But...

"Rachel, wake up. Dinner's ready. Aren't you hungry? I'm very hungry now!" Carl said to Rachel, who

was still sleeping in the car.

Finally awoken by Carl's words, Rachel opened her sleepy eyes and stretched, only to find that it was

already dark outside.

"The car stopped?" she asked, astounding Carl.

"Rachel, we have arrived, " he said. "My cousin and all the others have already gone inside the house."

"What?" Rachel exclaimed. The information was a complete surprise to her. She sat up and muttered in

a low voice, "Damn you, Hiram. Why didn't you wake me up?"

Speechless yet again, Carl thought to himself, 'My cousin wanted to. But since he cares about you, he

didn't forcefully wake you up.'

"I'm so hungry. Carl, let's go have dinner, " Rachel said, grabbing her bag and getting out of the car.

Her stomach had been growling even while she was asleep.

After entering the farmhouse, Rachel greeted the group of people sitting in the dining hall with a nod.

Although Rachel didn't know any of them, she realized that these were the people who had been

traveling with them.

Among them were four burly men who looked like soldiers.

There was also an older man who Rachel had encountered at Streams Company when Hiram had a

meeting. He seemed to be an engineer.

When she saw the table laden with delicious food, she was amazed and immediately felt a great

increase in her appetite.

"Rachel, you're finally awake, " Daniel said when he saw her walk in, greeting her with a smile.
