Deliberate favoritism, the cold-faced president surrenders obediently

The man frowned, feeling unhappy. He had emphasized last time in the hospital that he would no longer care about her affairs.

Zhou He explained, "I blocked Miss Jiang a long time ago. She called Aunt Shen, and it sounded very noisy on the other end of the line. Aunt Shen is timid and worried about problems, so she called me."

Aunt Shen was the aunt who served Jiang Ning in the villa that Li Yanxiu gave her.

Zhou He added, "She met Howard at Fengzhuang. If we don't rush over to save her now, I guess..."

"will die."

Zhou He didn't say the last two words, because everyone knew that Howard was not a good person, and anyone who fell into his hands would lose half his life if not die.

Zhou He knew that this matter was of great importance. After all, Howard was venting his hatred towards President Li. Although Li Yanxiu had given the order that no news about her needed to be reported, he was not sure that Li Yanxiu really had no feelings for Jiang Ning at all.

If something really happened to Jiang Ning tonight and he was blamed for not reporting it despite knowing about it, he would not be able to bear the consequences.

So, when he got the news, he rushed to Dingshan Villa without stopping.

At this time, Li Yanxiu's cell phone rang. He looked at the unfamiliar number and had a bad feeling, so he answered the call.

As soon as the phone was placed to his ear, a malicious voice came from the other side, "Li Yanxiu, do you still remember me?"

Hearing this, the man's dark eyes ignited with a cold light, his deep eyes narrowed slightly, and he exuded a dangerous aura, "Howard."

"Just remember. I heard you have a new girlfriend?"

"Tell me something!"

Howard said angrily, "You snatched the life-saving project from the Huo Group, causing the group to go bankrupt and sending me to prison. I have always remembered it in my heart for so many years, so today I want to test you to see if you have any heart!"

"I warn you!"

"you shut up!"

Howard interrupted him irritably, blurting out threats, "God blesses those who work hard. I ran into the woman you loved most on the street. She's currently in a shabby warehouse on the outskirts of Fengzhuang. I'll give you half an hour to redeem her with a ransom of 20 million. Otherwise, I'll rape her and then kill her."

"I want to see whether you are still obsessed with your old lover or loyal to your new girlfriend."

After saying that, he pulled Jiang Ning's hair and forced her to speak, "Come on, Miss Jiang, have a word with your old lover?"

"Ah Xiu, don't worry about me. You've started a new life and made new friends. You don't have to listen to his threats. He wouldn't dare to do anything to me!"

Jiang Ning spoke righteously, as if she didn't want to trouble him.

Snapped!

Howard slapped her in the face.

"what--"

Li Yanxiu's face suddenly changed.

It’s really Jiang Ning!

He stood up without hesitation and walked towards the door. The veins on the hand holding the phone were bulging, and his voice was cold. "Howard, I'm warning you, if you dare to touch her, I will bury your whole family with you."

"Then hurry up and bring the money. If you come too late, I can't guarantee that your sweetheart will be unharmed."

"Just 20 million, just wait."

After saying that, the man hung up the phone, and then without hesitation ordered Zhou He to prepare 20 million in cash.

Zhou He was confused when he heard Li Yanxiu's instructions.

But it is true. No normal person would watch their former lover die without helping him.

He quickly reacted and agreed.

When Li Yanxiu just walked out of the study, he ran into Lin Qian who had just walked upstairs. Perhaps he was too anxious, and he ran out of the study like flying.

The moment he saw Lin Qian, he suddenly slowed down and stabilized his expression.

Seeing Li Yanxiu's anxious look, Lin Qian casually asked, "Did something happen to the group?"

He didn't know how to start for a moment. The grudges here couldn't be explained in a few words. If he didn't explain it properly, she would think that they were still in love.

Besides, the current situation does not allow him to dawdle here. After all, things have their priorities. Compared with explaining and saving lives, any normal person knows what to choose.

He didn't want to go to help Jiang Ning in person, but Howard asked him to go. There was a grudge between them, and he couldn't just stand by and watch her die.

Li Yanxiu returned to normal and said calmly, "Yes, there are some matters at the group that I need to take care of. I need to go there now. You wait for me at home."

He looked anxious just now, but he pretended to be calm.

She always felt that things were not that simple.

The rapid change of expression was like stones thrown into the sea, causing continuous ripples.

She wondered for a moment whether he really had something to do at the company or was in a hurry to meet an old friend he met today.

He looked at her quietly, then repeated what he had just said, "I'm going out for a while, you stay home obediently, okay?"

But Li Yanxiu's expression showed no guilt at all. Lin Qian felt a little annoyed and speechless, always feeling that she was being too suspicious.

Lin Qian agreed obediently.

……

In an abandoned warehouse.

Howard swung his stick at Jiang Ning, hitting her arm hard with it, cursing, "It seems you're still not slutty enough. Even now, Boss Li hasn't come to save you."

The baseball bat was extremely powerful and the pain was so severe that it made people numb.

Before she could recover, another stick was about to fall.

Jiang Ning screamed and begged for mercy, but this behavior made Howard even more excited.

He put down his stick and approached her, excitedly tearing open her white shirt. He looked at the large expanse of white on her chest, and saw Jiang Ning's exquisite figure. His eyes were filled with strong malice. "Since Li Yanxiu won't come to save you, then I can only sleep with his beloved woman and teach him a lesson. Then I will kill you. Remember, don't look for me after you die. Look for Li Yanxiu!"

"no, do not want!"

Howard was so horny at this point that he couldn't listen at all.

She felt the man's aggression, and all her hopes for Li Yanxiu to save her were gone.

Magnetic pull——

The moment she closed her eyes in despair, she heard the sharp and piercing sound of brakes...
