"Our clothing company under Zuo Feng's name keeps launching new products, and business is getting better and better. I heard him say that it's preparing to go public soon."

"Old Cheng, wouldn't you say this is a great thing?"

Aunt Zuo's words made Wu Hua's desire to show off in front of Cheng Ci plummet from the sky to the bottom.

Her originally joyful expression turned into one of utter disappointment, and even Zuo Feng showed signs of anxiety.

He didn't understand. He had clearly told Aunt Zuo that he wanted her to introduce Wu Hua to Cheng Gang, so why did Aunt Zuo bring up his company's IPO?

Cheng Gang gave a casual "oh".

It seems that he was not satisfied with the joyous news that Aunt Zuo shared.

Zuo Feng, wanting Wu Hua to make an impression on Cheng Gang, took Wu Hua's hand, stood up solemnly, and prepared to speak.

Aunt Zuo's face was as dark as ink. She gestured to Zuo Feng not to act rashly, but unfortunately, Zuo Feng seemed not to see it.

He said, "Uncle Cheng, my mother invited you here today because it was my idea. I have some good news to share with you."

Zuo Feng's words piqued Cheng Gang's interest.

He glanced at Wu Hua, ready to hear what Zuo Feng had to say next.

Just as Zuo Feng was about to speak and formally introduce Wu Hua, the administrative man who had accompanied Cheng Gang rushed up to Cheng Gang with his phone in hand.

"Boss, it's an emergency call."

Upon hearing that it was an emergency call, Cheng Gang immediately took the phone.

The moment the phone was placed to his ear, Cheng Gang's expression instantly turned serious.

He answered the phone as he walked out of the private room. His sudden departure disappointed Zuo Feng greatly.

Jian He was also curious about what had happened, but she knew her own identity. How could she possibly know the information that a leader of Cheng Gang's level received?

Aunt Zuo followed behind Cheng Gang, wanting to talk to him, but she couldn't interrupt him while he was on the phone.

A few minutes later, Cheng Gang hung up the phone.

He turned to Zuo Feng and said, "Feng, I'm sorry, I have some urgent matters to attend to."

"Okay, let's make an appointment sometime when we have some free time, and then I'll listen to your wonderful news."

After Cheng Gang finished speaking, he gently patted Zuo Feng on the shoulder.

As Cheng Gang was about to leave, Jian He also stood up politely, wanting to see him off. Unexpectedly, Cheng Gang's gaze went past Zuo Feng's shoulder and he said to her, "Jian He, take your things and come with me."

"what?"

Jian He was completely dumbfounded by what Cheng Gang said.

"Uncle Cheng, I... I'll go with you? Why?"

Jian He wanted to ask Cheng Gang why he took her away.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Gang spoke first: "Ayan was injured while on a mission and has been sent to the hospital. He is still being treated. Come with me to see him."

Upon hearing that Cheng Yan was injured, Jian He's heart immediately tightened.

Without saying a word, she picked up her small bag and was about to leave with Cheng Gang.

Aunt Zuo followed behind Cheng Gang and said with concern, "Old Cheng, Ayan is injured. I'll go see her too."

Cheng Gang refused outright, saying, "A-Feng is still here. You stay with him for now. I'll call you as soon as there's any news about A-Yan."

After saying that, Cheng Gang took Jian He and turned to leave.

Wu Hua was still disappointed that she hadn't made a good impression on Cheng Gang. Now that Jian He was gone, she had to seize the opportunity to make a good impression on Aunt Zuo.

"Aunt Zuo, Uncle Cheng has already left. Don't worry, he will definitely call you as soon as he has any news." Despite Wu Hua's enthusiasm, Aunt Zuo did not give her a warm welcome.

She subtly withdrew her hand from Wu Hua's arm.

"Ah Feng, I'm tired. Please arrange for a driver to take me home to rest."

Aunt Zuo immediately gave orders to Zuo Feng, and her cold expression made Wu Hua stand there feeling extremely awkward.

"Auntie..." Wu Hua called out "Auntie" again, looking quite innocent.

Unfortunately, Aunt Zuo acted as if she hadn't heard anything, refusing to even glance at Wu Hua, and left with her own things.

Zuo Feng arranged for a driver to take Aunt Zuo away, and then he returned to Wu Hua's side.

Wu Hua stood in front of him, looking aggrieved: "Ah Feng, is it because I did something wrong that Aunt Zuo is unhappy? Is that why she doesn't want to talk to me?"

Zuo Feng looked at Wu Hua's innocent expression and was speechless.

Thinking of Aunt Zuo's excited attitude when he said he would introduce his girlfriend to her, and recalling Aunt Zuo's attitude just now, Zuo Feng thought that Jian He must have been talking nonsense in front of Aunt Zuo.

He comforted Wu Hua, "Don't overthink it. It's not your fault. It's probably because that woman Jian He talked nonsense in front of my mother. She just can't stand to see me doing well."

Zuo Feng put his arm around Wu Hua's shoulder and spoke to her in a low voice.

Wu Hua's face was clouded with gloom. She clenched her fists tightly and for the first time, she felt a determination to kill Jian He.

At that moment, Aunt Zuo, who was sitting in the car, took out her phone and sent a message to Zuo Feng.

"Send that woman away. I'll give you one hour. Go home and see me right now."

Jian He followed Cheng Gang to a high-end hospital. They went up the stairs in the back building and arrived at a conference room outside the emergency room.

Staff members were constantly reporting the situation to Cheng Gang.

"Sir, Cheng Yan was attacked by a group of thugs on his way to his destination. There were many thugs, and Cheng Yan only had Tu Qing with him at the time."

"Both he and Tu Qing were injured, but Cheng Yan's injuries were less severe, while Tu Qing was in much worse shape. In order to protect Cheng Yan, she broke three ribs and also had her arm slashed by the assailant."

The staff member's words made Cheng Gang's expression particularly solemn.

He asked, "Are their lives in danger?"

The staff member shook his head: "Not for now. Tu Qing has been sent to the operating room, and Cheng Yan is also being treated. Boss, Cheng Yan lost too much blood and his injury is quite serious. You need to be prepared."

"Also, Tu Qing's arm that was slashed is also very serious, and it will probably need to be amputated."

When Jian He heard that Cheng Yan had lost too much blood, her heart couldn't help but jump again.

With Cheng Gang present, she had no place to speak. Cheng Gang discussed the rescue plan with the medical staff.

Jian He was very anxious, but all she could do was sit quietly in a corner of the conference room, holding her phone, waiting for Cheng Yan to arrive at the emergency room.

She kept praying, praying that Cheng Yan would be safe and sound.
