Chapter 98 Kneel down and apologize

Kneel down and apologize to me

When the waiter bumped into Yao Man, he was holding a tray with a bowl of chicken soup and a plate of stir-fried beef.

After the two people collided, the tray overturned, the bowls and plates fell, the soup spilled, and the dishes fell all over the floor. However, because the waiter saw that he had collided with someone, he subconsciously turned his body to the side, so Yao Man just fell to the ground, with some soup on her clothes, and no other injuries.

Wen Ruan was in trouble.

She slipped on the broken porcelain pieces at her feet and half-knelt on the ground. Her knees were numb and painful, and her palms were pressed directly on the broken porcelain pieces, so the wounds were quite deep.

It hurt, and half of her leg was pressed on the bowl of chicken soup.

The chicken soup was freshly out of the pot and was still hot. Fortunately, Wen Ruan was wearing wide-leg jeans tonight, so it didn't stick directly to her skin, but it still hurt a little.

Extremely embarrassed.

Lin Yue didn't expect Wen Ruan to be here. She subconsciously wanted to help Wen Ruan, but as soon as she raised her foot, Xue Shao next to her grabbed her wrist.

Xue Shao knew she would be angry, but he had to lower his voice to remind her, "Your uncle's appointment as a director at the group headquarters will be announced next Monday."

Lin Yue glared at him but did not move. Indeed, Yao Man and Yao Tianyu were both here, and she could not act on impulse and offend this pair of vengeful siblings in public.

A little annoyed.

When chatting with Wen Ruan in the afternoon, she also mentioned their dinner party in the evening, but did not mention where. If she had mentioned it earlier, Wen Ruan would definitely not have come if she had known they were coming here.

At tonight's dinner, more than a dozen people from Rongli Capital came, all of whom had the title of "General Manager".

When Wen Ruan was in Rongli, he had a good relationship with them, but now they could only watch quietly, and no one dared to step forward to help.

The only one who dared to walk towards Wen Ruan was Yao Tianyu.

"Hey, Director Wen, do you need any help?"

Yao Tianyu put his hands in his pockets and looked down at Wen Ruan. He has always been kind to beautiful women. Seeing Wen Ruan so isolated and pitiful, he really wanted to help her.

But I was a little angry with her.

She had been so confident that she would be able to defeat Changjun Biology, but in the end, she lost.

Yao Tianyu should be happy after defeating Minghe and Hezheng, but damn, Yao Man spent 800 million! 800 million!

Damn it! Based on Chang Jun's latest valuation, he had proposed a maximum investment of only 600 million. He had clearly told Yao Man that the maximum she could bid was 650 million, but she went straight for 800 million.

Messing around.

After watching the bidding video, he called Wen Ruan directly and asked her why she shouted so loudly right from the start.

Wen Ruan said, "In the end, it's just me and Yao Man competing, so why not just show our cards? I can filter out the others right from the start, which will save time, right?"

That makes sense.

He asked her why she had to snatch Chang Jun away, and if she wanted to, why didn't she continue bidding.

Wen Ruan said, "Chang Jun is such a hot commodity. If you get the last round of financing, you will have controlling stake in Chang Jun. Our CEO He is jealous and wants a piece of the action. He told me to get it."

"But the highest authority I have is only 700 million. Your sister directly asked for 800 million. I didn't have the authority anymore. I called our CEO He, but he was on a plane and his phone was turned off, so I didn't dare to call him. After all, Minghe didn't have any shares before Chang Jun, so it wouldn't be cost-effective to exceed 700 million."

There is nothing wrong with this statement.

But he was still angry. Not only did he spend so much extra money, but Yao Man also took credit for it with her father last night. Her father praised her and gave her a sea view villa. With just one word, she made Jiang Qingyan a partner.

Wen Ruan wanted to deal with Yao Man, that's bullshit. Yao Man is so successful now that she wants to hold a celebration party and even lend him the new yacht he just bought!

If he had known earlier, he should not have cooperated with Wen Ruan and should not have let Yao Man go to the bidding meeting. His sister always disregards everything for the sake of face.

…

"Hey, Director Wen, do you need any help?"

Wen Ruan looked up at Yao Tianyu, endured the pain, and smiled, "No, thank you, Mr. Yao."

Yao Tianyu raised his eyebrows. This woman was just being stubborn. If she could stand up by herself, she would have done so long ago.

Now he is the only one who dares to help her, and he is waiting for her to beg him.

Wen Ruan didn't beg. She looked around and finally pointed at the waiter who knocked Yao Man down.

"Come and help me down."

The waiter was a little fat and wore flat shoes. After bumping into Yao Man, she didn't fall down, but she just didn't hold the tray firmly in her hand. When she saw that she had bumped into a customer, she was trembling with fear.

This private restaurant is expensive and is a high-end restaurant. All the people who come here to eat are rich people. She was terrified and her face was pale. Suddenly, Wen Ruan pointed at her. Her body trembled and she ran over in a panic to help Wen Ruan up.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry—"

Seeing that Ruan's hand was cut by broken porcelain pieces and half of her pants were covered in soup, she became even more scared and kept saying sorry.

Yao Man had already stood up. She was wearing nine-centimeter high heels today. When she stood up, she realized that she had sprained her ankle. Her ankle was in excruciating pain, and she leaned her whole body in Jiang Qingyan's arms.

Because of the pain, her brows were furrowed. When she heard the waiter repeatedly saying sorry to Wen Ruan, her face became even uglier.

"Hey! Why are you saying sorry to her? She was the one who pushed me and caused the collision. She's primarily responsible!"

The waiter had just helped Wen Ruan up when he heard Yao Man's words and was stunned.

She was carrying a tray and was about to turn the corner when she saw the beautiful woman she was holding. She moved a little to the side for fear of bumping into her.

Everything was fine at first, but the woman who was talking opposite suddenly came out from the corner, walking fast and not looking at the road. When she turned, she slipped and then bumped into her.

If we really want to talk about blame, the woman opposite was running around recklessly. She was trying to make sure the chicken soup in her hand didn't spill, and she didn't pay attention to the road. She is both responsible, but the person she was supporting is innocent.

It would be fine if he was innocent, but he was the most seriously injured and in the most miserable state.

The waitress felt a little guilty and was about to explain, but Yao Man looked at her with gloomy eyes, half warning and half reminder.

"I wore this skirt for the first time today. It originally cost 60,000 yuan. It got stained with soup. Whoever is responsible should pay for it."

Sixty thousand?

The waitress's face turned even paler. She only earned 5,000 yuan a month. It was really frustrating to compare herself with others. She had to spend a year's salary without eating, drinking or spending anything to be able to afford a skirt like that.

She couldn't afford to pay the compensation, so she let go of Wen Ruan's hand, silently took a step aside, and didn't dare to look up out of guilt.

Yao Man was satisfied. She hugged Jiang Qingyan's waist and looked up to complain to him.

"I was walking fine, but Wen Ruan saw the waiter coming over with a tray and pushed me hard. Qingyan, I sprained my ankle and it hurts. Ask her to apologize to me."

Jiang Qingyan hugged Yao Man, supporting her body to prevent her from falling. When he heard her words, he looked up at Wen Ruan.

Wen Ruan didn't sprain her ankle, but her knee hurt. After the waiter let her go, she stood up a little reluctantly, but her back was still straight. When Jiang Qingyan looked over, she was also looking at him.

This scene seemed to bring back the celebration banquet for Rong Li last year.

In full view of the crowd, the two of them just faced each other.

Jiang Qingyan's expression was calm. He glanced at Wen Ruan's still bleeding hand, narrowed his eyes, looked away, and met Wen Ruan's mocking gaze.

He said, "Wen Ruan, apologize to Yao Man."

The voice was calm and no emotion could be heard. Wen Ruan smiled.

"I've only heard that dogs are the only ones in this world who protect their masters without knowing right from wrong. Boss Jiang, you're really getting better and better at being a bootlicker. You start biting people at the first command of your master."

Lin Yue quietly gave Wen Ruan a thumbs up.

Rong Li and the others standing nearby watching the show: "..."

Director Wen is still so brave. This is not just a veiled criticism, but a direct confrontation.

Yao Tianyu was also enjoying watching the show at this moment. He was quite satisfied with Wen Ruan's fighting ability tonight.

He turned to look at Jiang Qingyan, tut, his expression didn't change at all, still as indifferent as usual. Then he looked at Yao Man, tut, his sister could never hide her emotions, her expression was ferocious, and she was obviously very angry.

Fight, it’s better to fight.

When Yao Man heard Wen Ruan call Jiang Qingyan a bootlicker, she was so angry that her face turned black. If she hadn't sprained her ankle and was in so much pain, she would have rushed over and slapped her.

"Who are you calling a dog? Wen Ruan, you're looking for death, aren't you? If you honestly apologize to me today, I'll forgive you and you won't even have to pay for your clothes!"

Bumping into the waiter was an accident.

She deliberately framed Wen Ruan so that she could apologize to her in public, and Jiang Qingyan would force her to apologize so that she would feel at ease.

Wen Ruan ignored her and turned to look at the waiter with an indifferent voice, "So what do you say? Did you see me push her?"

The waitress had long seen that Yao Man was deliberately targeting Wen Ruan. Although she felt guilty, she really couldn't afford to pay for a dress that cost 60,000 yuan.

The most important thing is that she recognized Yao Tianyu at this moment. Yao Tianyu had been to the restaurant several times. She heard from her colleagues that he was the young master of Rongli Group. The arrogant and domineering woman came with the young master of Rongli Group.

She can't afford to offend him.

so--

"I... yes... yes, I saw it."

Feeling guilty, her voice was a little trembling. The waiter looked up at Wen Ruan and secretly reminded her that the man had said that as long as she apologized, he would forgive her and she didn't have to compensate for the clothes.

Wen Ruan understood her look, sneered, glanced at the name on her badge, and then looked away.

After receiving the news, the restaurant manager hurried over and saw Wen Ruan's bleeding hand. He cried out and quickly asked someone to get the emergency medicine box.

Looking at the mess on the ground, the manager glared at the waiter who caused the trouble and apologized hurriedly.

Wen Ruan looked at Jiang Qingyan.

"Mr. Jiang, I didn't push your girlfriend. Now we both have our own opinions. I don't need to teach you what to do next."

Jiang Qingyan was silent for a few seconds, then suddenly looked at Lin Yue, "Director Lin, follow the manager to check the surveillance."

Lin Yue didn't expect Jiang Qingyan to give her this task, but she was happy to take it. Without even being surprised, she immediately responded, "Okay!"

Yao Man was trying hard to give her hints with her eyes, but Lin Yue pretended not to see it and simply pulled the confused manager away.

While waiting for the surveillance, another waiter brought a medicine box and simply helped Wen Ruan treat the wound on the palm of his hand, and the bleeding stopped.

Lin Yue and the others came back quickly, and Yao Man was not afraid. Even if the surveillance showed that Wen Ruan did not push her, she would say that she remembered it wrongly in a panic. Anyway, Jiang Qingyan would be on her side, and Yao Tianyu would help her clean up the mess.

Unexpectedly, God helped her.

Lin Yue brought the surveillance camera, but their corner was a half-blind spot, so they could only see that she bumped into the waiter. Wen Ruan was walking against the wall, so they didn't see Wen Ruan, nor could they see whether Wen Ruan pushed her.

The physical evidence is gone.

There can only be eyewitness testimony. There were three people at the scene. She and the waiter both said that it was Wen Ruan who pushed him. Wen Ruan had no witnesses, so the ratio was two to one.

Yao Man was very happy, and the pain in her ankle was not so intense. "Wen Ruan, kneel down and apologize to me, and I will forgive you."

Kneel down and apologize?

Lin Yue rolled her eyes. She wanted to secretly send a message to He Zheng to ask him to come to the rescue. When she picked up her phone, she remembered that she didn't have He Zheng's contact information. So she tugged at Xue Shao's sleeve and asked in a low voice if he had He Zheng's phone number.

Xue Shao didn't have one, but he had a friend in the public relations industry in Haicheng who had very close connections, and his friend's cousin worked at Minghe.

He quietly took out his cell phone from his pocket, looked up his friend's number, and was about to send a message when he suddenly heard a vicious sneer in his ears.

"Kneel down and apologize? Yao Man, you are quite arrogant."
