Hong Kong is in full swing
Chapter 159 Alert
His tone was gentle but with a hint of helplessness.
---
In the sixth week, Yu Wan started using crutches, leaning her body weight on the crutches and taking every step carefully.
Seeing her limping, Liu Linzhi couldn't help but sneer, "Hey, Yu Wan, why are you walking like a rocking clock?"
Yu Wan was speechless: "Did I break the law of heaven?"
There was a sense of reluctance and grievance in her tone, as if she was questioning why the whole world treated her like this.
I was laughed at wherever I went.
Those sarcastic voices echoed in her ears, and she felt more and more exhausted.
Liu Linzhi held her stomach and laughed so hard that tears were about to come out.
Then he glared at her fiercely and said, "You deserve it. Who told you to have a secret relationship?"
The malice in the words was obvious.
Yu Wan's eyes widened as she firmly denied it, "I didn't! Who was I dating?"
She almost shouted, afraid that others couldn't hear her.
Liu Linzhi was so angry that she stamped her feet and wanted to throw the mirror in front of her, "Then what's that on your neck!"
She pointed her finger at the skin on Yu Wan's neck, her eyes sharp.
Yu Wan turned her head and saw a shallow mark on the skin exposed by her round-neck short T-shirt.
The faint kiss mark seemed to be mocking her naivety.
——That was the mark that Huo Chuyan accidentally left yesterday.
Because it was so faint, she didn't even notice.
Suddenly, she remembered that when she was changing clothes in the morning, Huo Chuyan asked her if she was sure she wanted to go out wearing this outfit?
His tone was very light at the time, but seemed to be a little nervous.
She nodded at the time and said casually, "It's hot, I'm afraid of the heat."
What did Huo Chuyan do at that time?
She tried to recall, trying to picture the scene in her mind.
He leaned against the wall, his posture casual, reached out and gently rubbed her head, with a hint of pampering and a smile on his face, and said, "I support you."
These simple words sounded warm and resolute to her at the time, but thinking about it now, it seemed that those words of support had been teasing her from the very beginning.
Her face flushed instantly, and she felt a little embarrassed. Yu Wan stammered, "Mosquito, you sucked my blood."
Before he finished speaking, Liu Linzhi couldn't help but burst into laughter and mocked, "Do you think I'm a fool? This is clearly a hickey!"
Her eyes were full of teasing and curiosity, as if she was exploring an interesting secret.
"Which man did you secretly kiss? Tell the truth!"
In fact, that "wild man" was none other than Huo Chuyan.
Yu Wan was holding her breath, but in order not to expose the truth, she could only cowardly insist that she was bitten by a mosquito.
Although she felt extremely aggrieved, she still didn't dare to show it.
Liu Linzhi was angry about the possible hidden feelings behind her, and kept asking her who her lover was and whether he was handsome.
Do you have the ability?
There was a hint of unwillingness in her eyes, and her tone became more and more urgent.
"All right."
Upon seeing this, Yi Qiaoyin immediately stepped forward and pulled Liu Linzhi away, saying to her, "Don't bully people with disabilities."
This sentence calmed the whole scene temporarily and gave Yu Wan a chance to catch her breath.
Yu Wan silently swallowed what she wanted to say. She didn't want to make the situation more complicated and embarrassing.
Yi Qiaoyin's eyes involuntarily fell on the red mark on Yu Wan's neck. She couldn't help but sigh and muttered softly, "I never thought he would be this kind of person..."
These words were like a sharp knife, piercing Yu Wan's heart and causing her to feel waves of pain.
"What do you say?"
Liu Linzhi noticed something was wrong and immediately asked, her tone revealing some nervousness and curiosity.
"Nothing said."
Yi Qiaoyin quickly denied it, then called Liu Linzhi to help Yu Wan into the office.
It was a rare occasion for Yu Wan to come to the company, and both of them were very happy.
They entertained her warmly with delicious food and drinks. Everyone chatted and laughed in a relaxed atmosphere and had a very pleasant time.
Just as the conversation was in full swing, Yu Wan suddenly asked, "I heard someone is targeting Qiao's company recently. Do you know who that person is?"
Starting about two weeks ago, many local companies in Shenzhen refused to cooperate with Qiao.
I originally thought that the backlash was caused by some unfair competition from the Qiao company a few years ago, but when I thought about it carefully, I felt something was wrong.
If it was really an act of revenge, it should have happened long ago. How could it only start half a year later?
This question kept lingering in her mind, making her feel confused.
Later I found out that a large company that wished to remain anonymous had warned other companies not to cooperate with the Qiao family.
This news spread like wildfire in the circle and almost became a topic of conversation after dinner.
After hearing the news, Yu Wan was quite happy.
She knew in her heart that this was a heavy blow to the Qiao family, but it also gave her a sense of inexplicable comfort.
She even wanted to give the company a certificate of helpfulness.
Although this practice is quite common in the business world, it is truly rare for someone to stand up so "unhesitatingly" to target the Qiao family.
I was worried that I couldn’t find an opportunity to mess with the Qiao family.
Now, not only do I have helpers, but I don’t have to show up in person.
Yi Qiaoyin said, "I also heard about this matter. After some investigation, all the clues pointed to the Zhong family in Hong Kong City."
Her tone was full of confusion and suspicion, as if everything was not that simple.
"The Zhong family?"
Yu Wan couldn't help but repeat the name, a hint of doubt flashing in her eyes.
Zhong Xinyuan?
The name instantly appeared in Yu Wan's mind.
She had some understanding of Zhong Xinyuan. The two had met on certain occasions and were acquaintances, but not particularly familiar with each other.
Why is Zhong Xinyuan targeting the Qiao family?
Before Yu Wan could figure out the reason, she heard a knock on the door: "Boss Yi, Boss Liu, there's a guest here. She said her name is Zhong Xinyuan."
After a moment of hesitation, Liu Linzhi quickly helped Yu Wan into the lounge in the office.
Liu Linzhi's reaction was obviously very quick, and she seemed to be wary of this uninvited guest.
Only after Liu Linzhi returned did Yi Qiaoyin say, "Please ask her to come in."
There was a hint of helplessness in Yi Qiaoyin's voice, but it also revealed a calm determination.
The sound of high heels hitting the marble floor rang out, and Zhong Xinyuan carefully observed the not-so-big office.
"It's a medium-sized company after all, but how could the office environment be so shabby?"
There was a hint of disdain in her voice, as if she had not expected to see such an unremarkable office.
“The size of a place doesn’t matter; what matters is the presence of talented people.”
Liu Linzhi smiled and handed over a cup of tea. "But Miss Zhong's personal presence here certainly brightens up our humble home."
Liu Linzhi's words were both polite and cleverly resolved some of the awkwardness.
Zhong Xinyuan was amused by this sentence, and the corners of her mouth rose slightly, "You really know how to talk."
But there was still a hint of arrogance in her words, as if she didn't take the two people in front of her seriously.
Yi Qiaoyin hates this kind of people. They always show their superiority and treat others as if they were a boss evaluating his subordinates.
