Liang Feifan's tone became even colder. "Are you saying that she was already drugged when she was sent here?"
Liang Jiesheng trembled in fear when he heard Liang Feifan's cold tone. He stuttered, "Yes, I … I didn't touch her."
"What's the name of the person who sent her to you? How do you contact him?"
No matter how slow Liang Jiesheng's brain was, he could tell that Liang Feifan treated that woman differently.
He didn't dare to hide anything. "Mr. Liang. I really don't know how to contact him, but I know where to find him."
Liang Feifan stood up from the sofa and walked to his desk. He took a piece of paper and a pen and tossed them to Liang Jiesheng. "Write it down."
Liang Jiesheng didn't dare to delay. He bent down and wrote down the names and numbers he knew. Then he handed them to Liang Feifan respectfully.
Liang Feifan's slender index and middle fingers gently picked up the piece of paper. There was a place name and a person's name written on it. He only glanced at it and memorized it.
He threw the paper on the desk and said to Liang Jiesheng, "Mr. Li, let's talk about business now."
The topic changed so quickly that Liang Jiesheng couldn't react to it. He swallowed his saliva instinctively and clenched his fists. Cold sweat broke out in his palms. "Mr. Liang, what do you want to talk about?"
"The progress of the cooperation, of course. What do you think of the resort plan, Mr. Li?"
"Good, of course it's good. If the resort plan succeeds, not only Shengyuan but also the Liang Clan will have objective profits."
"Is that so?" Liang Feifan smiled playfully. "In my opinion, the Liang Clan doesn't really care about the resort. However, as far as I know, if Shengyuan doesn't have the resort plan, it will really suffer heavy losses. Shengyuan might even declare bankruptcy. Oh, right, Mr. Li, didn't Shengyuan just go public last year? This is also considered your family business, right? "
Cold sweat broke out on Liang Jiesheng's forehead. He could feel the murderous aura around him. "… Mr Liang, what … what are you trying to say?"
Liang Feifan looked at him with a half-smile. "It's nothing. As for me, my way of dealing with people and doing business is very simple. Everything has to be to my liking. But Boss Li, how do you think I should feel when I look at you now? "
Liang Jiesheng felt that not only was there cold sweat on his forehead, but his entire body was trembling.
Could it be that Liang Feifan's words were … asking him to leave Sheng Yuan?
He hurriedly responded, "Mr. Liang, this matter … Bai Lu's matter is really a misunderstanding. You see … If this really doesn't work, I'm willing to apologize to her."
"Do you think she wants to see you?"
Liang Jiesheng's body swayed, and he stuttered, "… Mr Liang, I … I know I was wrong. Can you, can you give me a way out?"
How could Sheng Yuan go against the Liang Clan?
The smile on Liang Feifan's handsome face became even more relaxed. Liang Jiesheng saw it and felt that the smile on Liang Feifan's face was as if Liang Feifan had grown teeth and accurately bit his own blood vessels. Liang Jiesheng was so scared that his legs went soft and he almost knelt down.
Liang Feifan stretched out his shiny black leather shoe, and the tip of the shoe touched Liang Jiesheng's knee. Liang Jiesheng was stunned, and he struggled to stand up.
Liang Feifan's tone was gentle, but the words that came out of his mouth were enough to make people tremble.
"Boss Li, please don't give me such a big bow. I can't accept it. Also, Boss Li, you're a few years older than me. Isn't this too much for me? "
"Mr Liang …"
"Boss Li, you're almost at retirement age, right? I see that your body doesn't look very good. Why are you sweating so much? "
At this time, Liang Jiesheng's mind was working very fast. He had already heard the hidden meaning in Liang Feifan's words.
He closed his eyes in despair. Although he was extremely unwilling, he still nodded. "Yes … Mr Liang, you're right. I … my body hasn't been very good. I've decided to go to the United States next week to recuperate … I won't return to City A in the future. I hope that Mr Liang … can let Sheng Yuan go."
Liang Feifan just curled his lips, and there was no longer any warmth in the depths of his eyes. "Boss Li, if you're not in good health, you need to rest well. Nothing is more important than health. As for Sheng Yuan, how could the Liang Clan hurt him? "
Bai Lu slept soundly at home. When she woke up, it was already the afternoon of the next day.
She had been working for several years in a row. Suddenly, she relaxed, and her heart felt a little empty.
In the afternoon, she made herself some food. Looking at the design sketch of the Municipal Party Committee building in the study, she felt even worse.
Anyway, it had nothing to do with her anymore!
Looking at the drawing, she would think of that man. When she thought of that man, she would feel uncomfortable all over.
She took a deep breath, gritted her teeth, and threw the drawing into the trash can. In the end, she bent down to pick it up. After repeating this several times, she finally put the drawing back to its original place.
With nothing to do, she read for a while. She didn't want to make food at night, so she changed her clothes and prepared to go out to look for food.
It had been a long time since she went shopping. It was a good opportunity to buy some new clothes for herself.
When Bai Lu left the apartment, she realized that she didn't have much cash with her. She happened to pass by an ATM on the side of the road. She took her bank card and went to withdraw money. To her surprise, she found that there was an extra sum of money in her account.
Bai Lu was surprised. She went directly to the bank to ask about the source of the money. The bank staff told her that the money was transferred to her account under the name of salary.
Bai Lu's expression changed. She immediately understood.
This was the salary that Liang Feifan paid her.
In other words, he had accepted her resignation. She was no longer an employee of EC …
But when she saw the extra zeros on her bank card, the corners of her mouth curved into a bitter smile.
What was this?
Was he compensating her for what happened at the Imperial Palace last night?
Liang Feifan … Did he think that if he gave her two more months of salary, she would pretend that nothing had happened?
Did he think that … money could buy everything? Including dignity?
There was a raging anger in her chest, burning her to the point that she almost lost all her rationality.
Grievance, unwillingness, and anger all rushed to her temples. She clenched her hands so tightly that her nails almost dug into her palms.
In his heart, was she a woman who could be bought off with money?
Bai Lu gritted her teeth. In the end, she angrily took out the extra two months' worth of money. Then she put it in her pocket and turned to rush out of the bank.
Unexpectedly, she walked too quickly and absent-mindedly. As a result, she didn't pay attention to the passing traffic at the three-way junction. In the ear-piercing screech of the emergency brakes, a black Bentley knocked her down.
Bai Lu only felt a sharp pain in her knee. The part of her knee that was sprained a few days ago also seemed to be burning with pain. She couldn't stand steadily and fell to the road in an extremely sorry state. The bag in her hand flew out. She only heard the sound of her phone falling to the ground. The phone's body and battery were separated.
That was a new phone that she had bought a few days ago!
Bai Lu's heart ached terribly, but her feet hurt even more …
Chu Weiye was sitting in the car. Because of the emergency brakes, his tall body was pushed forward by inertia. He held onto the car seat with one hand to stabilize himself. He frowned a little unhappily. "Old Zhang, what happened?"
The driver was an experienced driver. He had been driving for Chu Weiye for many years. At this moment, he was a little frightened and stammered, "… Chu, Young Master Chu, I … I think I hit someone. But it was a green light just now. The girl rushed out by herself."
Chu Weiye's thick eyebrows knitted even tighter. His voice was low. "I'll go down and take a look."
Old Zhang hurriedly stopped him. "Young Master Chu, I'll go and take a look."
Chu Weiye didn't say anything. He directly pushed the door open and got out of the car.
Seeing this, the driver hurriedly followed after him.
The collision was not light, and it was a girl. Chu Weiye put his hands behind his back and narrowed his eyes slightly to size up the person who had fallen and sat on the edge of the car.
She had a thin figure. Her long hair was tied into a simple ponytail. One hand was supporting her knee, and the other was pressing on her ankle. From his angle, he could only see the side of her face. The lines of her face were soft, her skin was fair, and her eyelashes were very long. When she lowered her eyes slightly, they were like two rows of brushes with curly arcs.
Chu Weiye quickened his pace and walked over. Just as he squatted down, Bai Lu turned around angrily.
Their eyes met, and both of them were stunned.
"Miss, are you okay?" It was Chu Weiye who reacted first. He raised his eyebrows and had already begun to size up her wound.
Bai Lu frowned. In fact, she had already recognized this man in her heart.
In City A, the famous Far East Group was neck and neck with the Liang Clan. And the crown prince of Far East Group was the man in front of her — Chu Weiye.
She had worked in EC for so many years. Previously, she was the secretary of the general manager. In the past two months, she was the secretary of the president. How could she not know about EC's biggest rival, the Far East Group?
And this time, EC's biggest rival was also the Far East Group in the bidding for the city council building.
Probably because he saw Bai Lu staring at him, Chu Weiye frowned. Seeing that she didn't speak for a long time, he coughed softly. His handsome face was tinged with impatience. "Miss, are you okay?"
Could it be that she had become stupid from the impact?
Or was he planning to extort her?
But looking at her gentle and quiet appearance, she didn't seem like someone with ulterior motives. Chu Weiye only wanted to resolve this matter as soon as possible.
Bai Lu lowered her eyes. After rolling in society for so many years, she still had the basic ability to observe people's expressions.
Moreover, she had dealt with a deep and unpredictable man like Liang Feifan. Bai Lu knew very well what the expression that flashed across Chu Weiye's face meant.
"I'm fine." She secretly used her strength to try and get up, but after several attempts, it was all in vain.
Seeing that Chu Weiye was just squatting beside her without any intention of reaching out to help her up, Bai Lu couldn't help but feel a little suffocated. She said angrily, "I'm really fine. I accidentally crossed the road and got hit by the car. Don't worry, I won't extort anything from you. You can go now."
