A pampered young lady from a prestigious family, pampered by her childhood sweetheart, a CEO.
Chapter 77 Feeling Uneasy
"I…"
"If I'm not mistaken, the other party is asking you to pass on all of our group's important documents to him. I'm their target, aren't I?"
His psychological defenses were breached, and Chen Jianming lowered his head, accepting everything.
Having obtained everything he wanted, Luo Yunqi stood up to leave. If he wasn't mistaken, the other party should be one of the few who escaped from the group that targeted his Luo family a few years ago.
Three years ago in the United States, he went to great lengths, even sacrificing several of his brothers, to finally capture the real culprit. Unfortunately, the man's younger brother escaped. When he left, the man's younger brother was only 15 years old, still in junior high school.
The only one that slipped through the net was a blurry photo of him playing basketball.
He was also secretly investigating that person's whereabouts, but unfortunately, he couldn't find any trace of him no matter how long he investigated. Later, nothing happened and a year passed, until now.
Luo Yunqi's eyelashes trembled slightly. "I will continue to have people help find your grandson, but you'll spend the rest of your life in jail. The company's legal department will be filing lawsuits to hold you accountable from now on."
"I…"
Chen Jianming's lips trembled with excitement, and after a long while, he managed to squeeze out an apology and a thank you.
When he came out, Fang Ming and Yang Jian were still guarding the door. "CEO, are you alright?"
His face looked rather grim; he still harbored some resentment and concern about what had happened three years ago.
"Yang Jian, take a few men and take him to the police station. Make sure he is safe on the way there. Don't stop for anything and don't let anyone get close to him."
"Yes."
Yang Jian went down to make arrangements, while Fang Ming, standing beside him, cautiously observed his expression, noticing a hint of lingering fear and tension in his eyes.
"CEO, has anything else happened?"
"Fang Ming, the one who slipped through the net three years ago, he's back."
"!!"
Fang Ming had been by his side all along, so he was naturally the one who knew best what had happened three years ago. For those three years, they had spent almost every day in the midst of gunfire, living in constant fear. In order to track down the real culprit, to find out the final result, and to take care of Madam Luo and the old man, Luo Yunqi almost wished he could use 24 hours as if they were 48.
After much effort, they finally found a clue, but unexpectedly, the person still managed to sneak away.
"CEO, then we..."
“I am no longer the person I was three years ago. From now on, I will quickly arrange for people to go down and investigate.”
Luo Yunqi pinched his palm hard, determined to calm himself down. He was different now than he was three years ago; now he was capable enough to protect everything he wanted to protect.
"Yes, CEO."
Luo Yunqi let out a breath, and his phone rang. Xu Shuli was calling him.
"Hello, Yao Yao, it's me..."
The tone shifted in an instant; the previous tension and ruthlessness turned into tenderness, and even the last syllable rose slightly.
Where are you now? Do you need me to pick you up? Would you like to have lunch together?
His expression changed so quickly that Fang Ming glanced at him silently a few times before quietly looking away.
Men who are obsessed with love are terrifying; they change so quickly and ficklely.
It seemed to be noisy on her side, and after listening for a while without hearing Xu Shuli's voice, Luo Yunqi couldn't help but worry.
"Yaoyao? Can you hear me? Yaoyao, where are you now?"
"Hey, I can hear you. Don't worry, there was a car accident at the intersection, so there's a bit of traffic. I'm near my teacher's house now, and I'm going down to buy him something."
Xu Shuli explained a few words, then took another route, saying, "I'll call you later, I have a lot of things to carry."
After saying that, she hung up the phone.
Luo Yunqi "..."
For some reason, he just couldn't settle down.
Where is that person? Is he trying to avenge his brother? What should he do next?
Luo Yunqi put himself in that person's shoes. If it were him, the first thing he would do upon emerging would be to find the person Luo Yunqi cared about most... the company he cared about most... and then gradually take action...
The person I care about most...
Yao Yao and Grandpa!!
Grandpa is safe at the old house for now…
Thinking about the car accident Xu Shuli had just mentioned, Luo Yunqi couldn't calm down. Fang Ming, who was beside him, seemed to notice his inner turmoil.
"CEO, has something happened?"
"Go get the car right away, I'll go find Yao Yao right away."
Luo Yunqi couldn't put his mind at ease until he was completely sure she was safe. Fang Ming saw this and turned to leave without asking why.
Luo Yunqi quickly sent a message to Xu Shuli, who was holding several items and didn't have a spare hand to reach for her phone in her pocket.
Luo Yunqi became increasingly nervous and quickly pressed the elevator button to go downstairs. For so long, Luo Yunqi had always presented himself as a cold and aloof CEO to the company's employees, so it was rare to see him in such a anxious and flustered state.
A car accident occurred on the other side of the road. When turning, neither driver slowed down and they collided, lifting the entire hood of the car.
A large group of people gathered there.
Xu Shuli used one hand to gather her hair, recalling the message Teacher Jiang had sent her, making sure she had bought everything. On her way back, she realized that she had probably carried too many things, and the bag she was carrying had a hole in it.
The oranges that were bought were rolled down the road.
"..."
Helpless, Xu Shuli could only hold onto her things and slowly walk down. Just as she was about to bend down to pick them up, someone stood in front of her.
He had already taken the two oranges and stood in front of her with a bright smile. He looked like a high school student, with delicate features and a youthful spirit.
"Hello, are these your oranges?"
"Yes, thank you."
Xu Shuli wanted to take the two oranges from him, but her two hands were tightly holding a bag of bottles and jars in her arms, and she didn't have any free hands to take them.
Do you need help? I live nearby.
The boy had a bright, sunny smile, and his large, white teeth were quite eye-catching. He was also very tall, and he was probably just out of class, as he was holding a basketball in his hand.
"No need, thank you. Since you can't carry these two oranges, you can have them."
Xu Shuli is never limited to these things. She does what she can, and she doesn't force herself to do what she can't. Just like these two oranges, she takes them if she can, and if she can't, she gives them to someone else.
"This isn't really appropriate. I only picked two oranges for you, it's not right to get them for free."
"It's alright, and thank you for picking up these two oranges for me. Otherwise, they would have rotted in the middle of the road and affected other people."
Xu Shuli didn't intend to get entangled with him any further. Seeing that he was holding an orange, she turned around and left from the other side.
"Excuse me, I have to leave now."
After saying that, she walked forward without looking back. The boy didn't say anything more, looked down at the two oranges in his hand, squeezed them, and called out to her as she walked away.
"Hey, what's your name? Are you from our school? Are you a student at Kyoto Affiliated High School?"
