After Xu Fangli finished speaking, she raised her hand to slap him again, but someone grabbed her wrist.

"Fang Li!"

A black van had stopped on the side of the road at some point. Before the van had even come to a complete stop, Song Yuchen hurriedly got out, took two steps forward, grabbed Xu Fangli's arm, looked at her with a puzzled and accusatory gaze, and warned her in a deep voice.

Why did you hit someone again!

Xu Fangli gave him a cold look and withdrew her hand without a trace of warmth.

Song Yuchen frowned and clenched his empty palm: "What happened between you and me really has nothing to do with Yu Wei. Can you please stop targeting her?"

"I'm targeting her? So in your eyes, the conflict between her and me is only about you, and if I hit someone, it must be because I'm targeting her unilaterally?"

Song Yuchen moved his lips, but no sound came out of his throat.

Xu Fangli gave a leisurely, cold laugh.

Her indifference was like an invisible hand that not only slapped him in the face but also easily choked him, making him unable to breathe and causing him chest pain.

Wu Sirou, who was in the car, finally came to her senses.

She pushed open the car door and got out, forcefully pushing aside Wen Yang and running to Yu Wei's side, looking at Fang Li with indignation!

"Xu Fangli, don't go too far! It was just a small accident, why are you so persistent! Besides, Weiwei was driving normally at the time, it was you who insisted on standing on the side of the road, getting splashed with water is just your bad luck, why are you hitting people over such a small thing!"

Xu Fangli's gaze shifted slightly, and she saw Yu Wei with her head down, looking aggrieved and sobbing softly.

Her eyes held an undisguised gloom and hatred. Hearing Wu Sirou's words, she raised an eyebrow triumphantly, a hint of disdain lurking beneath her dark expression.

"Fang Li, I really didn't notice you were by the roadside and I'm so sorry for accidentally getting your clothes dirty. How about this, I'll buy you a few new outfits, okay? You can choose any clothes you like, any price is fine..."

Fang Li frowned deeply, her eyes turning icy cold!

Her gaze swept over Yu Wei's head full of luxury brand names. In her eyes, it was just a few sets of clothes, and it didn't seem like a big deal. Just like Wu Sirou said, she was making a mountain out of a molehill by chasing after her!

Although Wu Sirou is arrogant and brainless, she is indeed a very good lackey of Yu Wei, and she can always clearly express the dirty thoughts in Yu Wei's heart.

Yu Wei appears sweet and kind, but what is she really like? She always manages to hit people's sore spots with her hypocritical words, she is two-faced and pretends to be sophisticated, and her deep scheming is disgusting.

In the past two years, Xu Fangli has fallen for her tricks countless times!

"Is any amount of money acceptable?"

Wu Sirou suddenly sneered, her eyes full of disdain: "Were you just waiting for Weiwei to say that? What, are you planning to extort a huge sum of money from us?"

"...Sirou!"

Yu Wei still had tears in her eyes, looking kind and gentle.

Xu Fangli's thin lips curled up slightly, her smile faint yet sarcastic, making the others feel uneasy and confused.

They had no idea what her expression meant, but then they saw her coldly pull out her phone and make a call.

-

In the conference room on the top floor of the Han Group, several projects were being reviewed one after another. The project leaders looked tense and uneasy, sitting upright in their chairs. The atmosphere in the entire office was solemn, like hell.

The projection kept looping, and everyone would occasionally steal a glance at the man in the head seat, who had indifferent features and calm, deep eyes.

He leaned back lazily in his chair with his legs crossed, looking down at the project report in his hands. Occasionally, he would glance up at the projected content, his expressionless face making him hard to read.

Soon, the meeting reached the final evaluation and voting stage.

The atmosphere in the meeting room grew increasingly tense and solemn. Lin Mo was standing beside Han Xi, helping him organize the project report, when his cell phone suddenly vibrated in his pocket.

Buzz----

The slightest noise seemed unusually clear and distinct in the office at that moment.

Han Xi was looking at the documents when suddenly his eyelids lifted and his dark pupils turned slightly to the upper right corner. A single, indifferent glance instantly lowered the temperature in the entire office, making it so tense you could hear a pin drop.

Lin Mo panicked and frantically pulled out his phone, but just as he was about to hang up, he suddenly realized something was wrong.

The screen was empty except for a small, moving icon—a small, green fruit, like... a pear?

He paused, touched his other pocket, and suddenly realized something.

His mind raced, and after a brief internal struggle, Lin Mo stared blankly at the astonished looks of the crowd and the cold gaze of his boss. He then mechanically turned and left the conference room.

In the corner outside the door, he answered his boss's call.

"Hello, madam?"

"Lin Mo?"

Fang Li's clear and elegant voice came from the other end.

Lin Mo felt a sense of relief; thankfully, he had guessed correctly.

He lowered his voice and said, "It's me. The boss is in a meeting. Is there anything I can help you with?"

Fang Li: "I do have something to take care of. I'm on the expressway leading to the film and television base. Could you please bring two people over, and maybe some more..."

Lin Mo was taken aback: "Now?"

"Okay, now, please hurry."

Lin Mo glanced at the conference room and replied, "........Okay, I'll be right there."

After hanging up the phone, he stood at the door for a moment, then pushed the door open, walked over to Han Xi, and whispered in his ear, "Boss, it seems something's happened with Madam. She's... She asked me to bring some people and some things over, but her tone sounded off. Do you think we should..."

Han Xi frowned: "Do as she says."

Xu Fangli hung up the phone.

Wu Sirou stared at her warily, her eyes full of suspicion: "What other tricks are you planning to pull?!"

Fang Li's gaze was indifferent, and she smiled without saying a word.

Song Yuchen frowned, turned slightly to shield Yu Wei behind him, and looked at Fang Li with a furrowed brow: "Fang Li, we're all... friends, it's just that we accidentally lost a few pieces of clothing. Yu Wei promised to compensate us, can we just leave it at that?"

"That's it?"

Fang Li gave him a cold look. "Friends? The moment I left the apartment, you and I could never be friends again, let alone Yu Wei!"

She sneered, a vicious smirk playing on her lips: "If this were just targeting me, even with Wen Yang involved, I probably wouldn't bother wasting my time here with you all. But with Grandpa here! He's an elderly man over seventy, and Yu Wei dares to lay a hand on him?!"

"Song Yuchen, I always thought you were just deeply in love and blindly believed others, but now it seems that you and Yu Wei are the same kind of people at heart. What is important to you? Is it only things that involve your own interests that are worth paying attention to?"

"Regarding what happened today, ask the woman behind you if it was just about a piece of clothing. Ask her if it was truly an accident, or if she harbored malicious intent and wanted to retaliate or intimidate us!"
