Chapter 426 I'll be right back
"Something came up on the way, so I was delayed," Su Qingyue replied with a forced smile.
At the same time, he reached out and took the wine glass from Lin Zheng's hand, but did not rush to drink it. After all, he had just heard from Li Weihao that he would put something in the wine of the women he fancied.
Caution is the boat.
Su Qingyue will only ever be one man's wife in her life, and she will never allow anyone other than him to touch her.
"..." Lin Zheng's eyes narrowed. He had seen countless people and had risen to his current position. How could he not see that the woman in front of him was wary of him?
"But I heard from my men that you were kidnapped by that little bastard Li Weihai. That guy is full of nonsense. No matter what he says, I suggest you don't believe him, especially his vicious remarks against me. Everyone knows we are competitors. It would be strange if he didn't smear me."
"Then can I assume that President Lin is also smearing President Li?" Su Qingyue asked jokingly.
“That’s certainly true,” Lin Zheng nodded and smiled.
He did not deny Su Qingyue's words.
"Wait! Mr. Li? It seems that Mr. Su has already discussed the jade business with Li Weihai?" Lin Zheng noticed something and asked.
However, this statement was not as surprising or unexpected as one might expect.
If Chen Wei were to guess, Lin Zheng had probably planted a spy next to Li Weihao.
This is not surprising; who knows, there might be Li Weihai's informants in this courtyard.
For example, the chef in charge of the barbecue, or the waitress serving drinks... everyone has potential.
"President Li invited us there to discuss a jade cooperation project." Clearly, Chen Wei wasn't the only one who thought this; Su Qingyue was well aware of it as well.
Since they already know about what happened at the Li family's house, why hide it and make yourself look guilty?
Cooperation is always based on mutual benefit; we cooperate with whoever offers the most benefits.
Moreover, Su Qingyue never signed any contract with Lin Zheng, so there was no question of breach of contract.
She had considered signing the contract, but Lin Zheng was deliberately stalling for time, all for his so-called birthday.
"So, President Su, you've given up on me and chosen Li Weihai instead?" Lin Zheng asked bluntly.
"I couldn't refuse the benefits he offered," Su Qingyue admitted.
"It's alright. Even if a deal falls through, we can still be friendly. If we didn't reach an agreement this time, we can do it next time. Come on, enjoy the banquet. Let's not talk about those things," Lin Zheng invited.
Everything seemed normal.
But perhaps the calmer things are, the more dangerous they seem to be!
During this period, Su Qingyue barely ate anything.
Chen Wei acted as a taster, and only after confirming that the food was safe did he pick it up for Su Qingyue and hand it to her.
"Thank you."
……
Seeing this scene, Lin Zheng, who was in the distance, was not in a good mood. How could he make a move when Su Qingyue was so vigilant?
"Why did you bring that brat back?" Lin Zheng raised his gaze to the man and questioned him.
“Boss, I’m worried that guy might notify the Great Xia security forces. After all, Su Qingyue has considerable influence in Jiangcheng. If she attracts the Great Xia special forces, I’m worried…” The man didn’t finish his sentence.
Special forces!
Indeed, if those guys were actually brought here, his ragtag henchmen would be wiped out in no time.
No matter how powerful a pheasant is, it can never compare to a phoenix.
The combat capabilities of the Great Xia Special Forces are so formidable that even the hawks and major powers like Japan wouldn't dare challenge them. Lin Zheng, a mere local bully, wouldn't bother going against them for the sake of a woman.
"Boss, I remember that the Selene spray doesn't need to be taken orally; just spraying it on your face is enough to work," the man reminded him. "How do you know so much?" Lin Zheng asked, somewhat surprised.
Before the man could speak, he took the initiative and said, "Looks like you're quite the player, aren't you?"
"Not at all, my meager skills are hardly enough to impress the boss," the man said, feigning modesty.
Who would compete with their own boss for fame and fortune?
Unless you're tired of living and think your life is too long...
"Find a chance to get that kid away from me later, and then get rid of him!" Lin Zheng couldn't wait any longer.
He's furious about the quarry incident and needs to vent his anger.
"Don't worry, boss, I guarantee there won't be a trace." The man was very confident about this.
"Mm." Lin Zheng nodded and didn't say anything more.
……
Then, the man took the initiative to approach Chen Wei, offering him a wine glass, "Are you President Su's bodyguard?"
"You could say that?" Chen Wei took the wine glass and nodded.
"Then you must be very skilled, right? I've heard that the Great Xia has ancient martial arts, every move of which is a killing technique, extremely powerful. I wonder if you could give me some pointers?" the man asked tentatively.
"You said it yourself, every move in ancient martial arts is a killing technique. If I hurt you, do you think Mr. Lin will let me off?" Chen Wei smiled faintly.
It would be a lie to say that you couldn't figure out what this old fox was thinking.
She was clearly trying to lure him away, creating an opportunity for Lin Zheng to get close to Su Qingyue.
"It's alright. I don't care about life and death. To be honest, I'm a martial arts fanatic. I've pursued martial arts all my life. If you can really kill me, I won't blame you. I'll thank you instead," the man said.
"Really?" Chen Wei asked to confirm.
"Of course it's true." The man nodded affirmatively, without hesitation.
"Sis, wait for me, I'll be right back." Chen Wei walked ahead, and from the man's expression, he knew that if he didn't teach him a lesson today, it would never end.
"Okay, be careful." Su Qingyue knew that Chen Wei would never do anything without being sure of success.
Since he dared to agree, no further objections were made.
The man smiled at Su Qingyue, then followed Chen Wei out of the villa.
"I didn't expect to succeed so easily." After seeing Chen Wei and the man walk out of the villa one after another, Lin Zheng got up from the pool, hid the hand holding the spray bottle behind his back, picked up a wine glass from the table with his other hand, and walked towards Su Qingyue.
"Su..."
"Sister, I'm back."
"..." Lin Zheng had only just opened his mouth, and hadn't even had a chance to say anything yet.
How did that guy even do his job?!
"You really did hit me hard." Su Qingyue was equally surprised.
"Mr. Lin, is there anything you want to say to my sister?" Chen Wei turned to look at Lin Zheng.
"I just wanted to ask if President Su had a good time at my birthday party," Lin Zheng said with a forced smile.
"The wine was delicious, and the barbecue was great too. It was a wonderful birthday party," Su Qingyue replied, raising her glass.
"I'm satisfied, I'm satisfied." Lin Zheng immediately turned and left, slamming the blanket down on the table, intending to go out and question the man about how he had handled things.
