Chapter 77 Liang Yizhi

The basement of a villa in the southern suburbs.

Because Ji Ying smashed the computer and equipment, Pang Wei had someone bring in new equipment, which delayed things a bit. It wasn't until after 7 p.m. that they prepared to give her the final electric shock.

Moreover, Pang Wei didn't make things easy for Ji Ying either.

He slapped her hard several times, causing Ji Ying to temporarily lose her hearing.

Pang Wei pinched her chin and said, "You're just trash that Gu Yanchen casually threw away. Nobody cares whether you live or die. Do you think you can get out of here alive?"

Ji Ying laughed, revealing her blood-red teeth. "You keep mentioning him. How afraid are you of him?"

Pang Wei threw her to the ground, saying, "You're not cute at all, that's why no man likes you."

Just then, a burly maid rushed into the basement and whispered a few words in his ear.

Upon hearing this, Pang Wei's expression changed slightly, and he instructed the female doctor, "Hurry up and do it for her; the garden is out of fertilizer."

Then he left the basement.

First floor living room.

Pang Wei smiled and looked at his secretary standing in front of the coffee table, "We can't let you search us. If Miss Xiao has any evidence, call the police and let them search us."

Xiao Xia's face turned pale with anxiety. "Don't think I don't know. You've already spoken to the police station, and they're not coming back at all. The IP address Yingying sent at midnight was yours. Hand her over."

Pang Wei raised an eyebrow. "Get out of here if you have no evidence, or I'll call the police to warn you that you've trespassed."

The secretary smiled and adjusted his glasses. "Let us look for it, and we'll find the evidence."

Upon hearing the other person's Beijing accent, Pang Wei asked warily, "Who are you? My surname is Pang. Think about the consequences of meddling in her business."

The secretary glanced at the man sitting on the sofa, a smile still lingering on her brow. "I'm from the countryside; my name is nothing special."

As he spoke, he made a gesture.

Several well-trained people scattered.

But after searching around, I couldn't find it.

Just as Pang Wei was about to explode, the man sitting on the sofa stood up and leisurely stomped his foot.

The sound of the magnetic alcohol made Pang Wei gasp.

"Mr. Pang, this ground is really solid."

The group understood each other and finally found the entrance to the basement in the storage room under the stairs.

This time, the men took the lead.

As soon as I walked down, I heard a loud "bang".

The iron gate on the inside was violently kicked open.

Ji Ying stumbled out, followed by several burly women.

She instinctively grabbed the gleaming leather shoes in front of her, and with all her might, looked up at the other person, her eyes filled with a desperate will to survive.

"Please...save me..."

The man frowned, and several women who had followed him were captured by his men.

Ji Ying was very dirty; the brownish-red bloodstains on her gray dress had dried, and the acrid smell of sweat mixed with her body wafted over.

Originally, he didn't need to do this kind of thing.

But after a moment of concentration, he inexplicably bent down and picked her up.

“Yingying…” Xiao Xia almost cried when she saw her.

Ji Ying leaned weakly on the man's shoulder, her nostrils filled with his refreshing woody scent.

Three times in a row, this scent always managed to set the gears of fate in her life-or-death moments, pulling her back from despair to the world of the living.

Pang Wei lay on the ground, his head pinned under someone's foot, but he still remained defiant.

"Who exactly are you people? You're from Beijing, don't you even know how to write the character 'Pang' in the Pang family name?"

The secretary walked up to the man and whispered, "This Pang Wei was deported from L country for illegal detention, but the company not only didn't fire him, they also transferred him to Kun City to be in charge of regional business. It seems that he must have something to do with that 'Pang'."

"You know my background and yet you treat me like this. Put that woman down, and I will forgive and forget about it."

Pang Wei tried several times, but couldn't get up from under the other person's feet.

The man chuckled and carried Ji Ying away.

The car headed towards the hospital.

The man sat in the front passenger seat, leaving the back seat to the two ladies.

Xiao Xia held Ji Ying's hand and wiped away her tears.

"Drunk driving only results in a fine, and if you call the police, they won't care. Is there no one who can do anything about it? Gu Yanchen is the same. He just watched you get taken away by a pervert at a dinner party. Does he really want to be widowed?"

A single sentence suddenly reminded Ji Ying.

Ji Ying straightened up and asked, "Is the Chip Energy Summit today?"

Xiao Xia nodded.

Ji Ying said, "I'm not going to the hospital. I'm going home to change my clothes and then go to the summit."

"Yingying," Xiao Xia said with a slight sob in her voice, "look at how badly you're injured. Go to the hospital now."

Ji Ying shook her head, "They gave me a lot of drugs to keep me conscious while I'm receiving the electric shocks. I won't collapse anytime soon. I'm going to give Gu Yanchen a second big gift, today!"

Xiao Xia didn't know how to advise her for a moment.

The man turned around and saw the bluish-purple lines from the electric current still visible under her skin, and dark red scabs of blood even forming under her fingernails. Her small face was bloodless, yet she possessed an indescribable stubbornness.

Even though he had seen a lot and was usually unfazed, he couldn't help but frown at this moment.

The secretary understood, asked for the address, and drove the car to the apartment building.

Ji Ying was helped out of the car by Xiao Xia, but after taking two steps, she suddenly turned back.

She extended her scarred palms toward the passenger seat.

"You saved me four times... Can I know your name?"

The man's gaze swept over the crisscrossing scars on her palm, and his index finger fell.

“Liang Yizhi”.

His cool fingertips traced patterns on her palm, gracefully avoiding any contact with the wound.

He stopped writing the three words immediately, as if afraid that touching her for even a second longer would hurt her.

"Thanks."

Ji Ying bowed to him.

She knew she looked pathetic and didn't have the energy to thank him.

If there is any cause and effect, I will definitely make her repay him next time we meet.

"Boss, are we still leaving?" the secretary asked with a smile.

"You don't know my schedule today?"

Liang Yizhi looked away and closed the car window.

The secretary said, "This Miss Ji's eyebrows and eyes also resemble the adult photo of the madam, which is simulated by AI. I guess it's a kind of fate."

Over the past few years, they have tested dozens of girls who look like AI-generated photos, and none of them are actually them.

Later, they realized that the credibility of AI-generated simulations was not high, so they abandoned this method of searching.

The secretary was actually teasing the boss about how he treated this woman differently from others.

Liang Yizhi glanced at him casually: "Have you finished all your work and now you're just bored and have nothing better to do than tease me?"

The secretary immediately said seriously, "Then how should we deal with Pang Wei? Imprisonment and electric shocks are outrageous acts, but he is also connected to someone surnamed Pang."

“Give the Banking Regulatory Commission a heads-up that those scumbags brought back from overseas should no longer be employed, and the rest…” Liang Yizhi smiled faintly, “Let the Pang family hold Gu Yanchen accountable for this.”

...

apartment.

Ji Ying walked out of the bathroom, drying her wet hair. The steam finally brought some color back to her pale face.

"How did you come to know someone like Liang... Liang Yizhi?" she asked.

Xiao Xia handed her the milk.

"Hey, I hit his car at the hospital entrance, and his secretary left me his business card. Do you know who he is? He's the chairman of the Fuyao Energy Council, a cash cow that countless new energy companies want to curry favor with."

"I've thought about this matter. Neither my brother nor the police are entirely confident they can get you out, only he is. So I called him to try my luck. I didn't expect this Chairman Liang to be such a nice person."

Xiao Xia laughed as she spoke.

“Yingying,” she sat down next to Ji Ying, her face full of calculation, “If you’re going to find another man, you should find someone like Chairman Liang. Having him is like having armor.”

Ji Ying took a sip of milk and laughed at her words.

"Don't even dream about it, there's no chance. I saw the ring on his left ring finger."

Besides, after her experience with Gu Yanchen, she didn't want to get married anymore; she wanted to be alone.

"I see..."

Xiao Xia was somewhat disappointed.

During the day or so that Ji Ying was imprisoned, Pang Wei did not give her any food, but because she was given many drugs, she did not feel hungry.

The medication had a limited effect, so she changed her clothes, put on gloves and a mask to cover the injuries on her face, and then hurriedly went to the convention center with Xiao Xia.

When they arrived at the gate, they were stopped.

Holding the invitation card from Xiao Xia's hand, the staff member said with some regret, "I'm sorry, the invitation card from Qing Sui Power is invalid."
