Chapter 385: The car accident four years ago!

Lin Weiwei's father is Lin Jiandong, the chairman of Hongyuan Group.

This news, like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, stirred up a thousand waves in the hearts of Xiao Xuezhen and Shi Runrun.

Hongyuan Group, a new energy company that has rapidly emerged in Beijing in recent years, has always been high-profile and radical in its style of operation. It has had friction with Guangzheng Group on several projects.

Especially the recent south city project, the situation has reached a point where tensions are high and it is a life-and-death struggle.

Xiao Xue Zheng leaned on the sofa in the study, tapping the armrest of the sofa with his slender fingers from time to time.

There was no emotion on his face, but his deep black eyes held a cold, calculating light.

The daughter of a business rival, a famous talent in school, and a favorite student of Professor Chen Jingzhi...

These seemingly unrelated identities are now connected together because of the name Lin Jiandong.

Why did she approach Shi Runrun?

Is it just jealousy and comparison between little girls?

Or is it a long-planned business conspiracy against him and Guangzheng Group?

"She is most likely trying to get close to me through you, so as to obtain the commercial secrets of the Chengnan Project."

Xiao Xue Zheng pointed out the other party's most likely motive incisively and accurately.

Shi Runrun's heart sank all of a sudden.

She never imagined that behind a seemingly simple campus conflict, there was such a complicated business calculation.

She thought of Lin Weiwei's pure and innocent face and those seemingly sincere eyes, and suddenly felt a chill.

"Then...that car, could it be them who did it?" she asked in a low voice.

"I can't rule this out." Xiao Xuezheng's eyes turned cold. "They're using this method to give us a warning, disrupt our minds, and then take advantage of our weakness in business. This is their usual tactic."

"Then what should we do now?" Shi Runrun was a little at a loss.

"Don't be afraid." The man took her into his arms and patted her back gently. "Since they want to play, then we will have some fun with them."

His voice was not loud, but it carried an air of absolute confidence, as if he was in control of everything.

He asked Qin Feng to continue to quietly dig deep into the background information of Lin Jiandong and Hongyuan Group, especially their history of making a fortune and some shameful black materials.

He himself acted as if he knew nothing and continued to pick up and drop off Shi Runrun from school as usual every day.

Even at Shi Runrun's "request", he started to drive different limited edition sports cars in his garage, each one more flashy than the last, to park downstairs of the teaching building.

The ostentatious posture drove all the students in Kyoto University crazy.

And after two days of silence, Lin Weiwei appeared in front of Shi Runrun again.

This time, she put away all her sharpness and sense of superiority, with just the right amount of guilt and apology on her face.

"Sister Shi, I'm sorry."

She stopped in front of Shi Runrun and bowed deeply.

"Last time in the classroom, I was too abrupt and rude. I asked you such a difficult question and embarrassed you."

Her posture was extremely humble and her tone was full of sincerity.

"After I went back, I reflected on it for a long time and felt that I had really gone too far. I... I just admired Mr. Xiao Xiao so much and regarded him as my idol. So, when I saw you, I couldn't help but want to... want to communicate with you more."

As she spoke, her eyes became red. She looked so pitiful that anyone who saw her would feel pity for her.

If she hadn't known her background in advance, Shi Runrun thought, she might have really believed her flawless performance.

"It's okay, it's all in the past."

A gentle and understanding smile also appeared on Shi Runrun's face.

She has been through so much and is no longer the naive little girl who could be easily deceived.

On the surface, she was chatting and laughing with Lin Weiwei, and she held her arm affectionately, saying some intimate things between girls.

In his heart, he remained extremely alert, secretly observing her every move.

The two of them walked side by side on campus like a real pair of close senior and junior classmates.

Lin Weiwei chatted with her about school gossip, the latest popular fashion brands, and which teacher's class was the most interesting.

She acted innocent, romantic, and full of closeness and love for Shi Runrun.

At the end of the conversation, she finally, seemingly unintentionally, led the topic to her real purpose.

"Oh, Senior Sister," she said, as if she suddenly remembered something, a look of distress on her face, "I heard from my father that his company is currently bidding for that new energy project in the south of the city, and it seems... it seems that the biggest competitor is Guangzheng Group."

"Well, I don't understand these business matters, but I feel like my dad's hair has turned a lot gray recently because of worrying about this project."

She sighed, then looked at Shi Runrun with a somewhat innocent and pleading look.

"Senior, you and Mr. Xiaoxiao have such a good relationship, and he loves you so much... Can you... Can you help me blow some pillow talk?"

"I'm not asking Guangzheng Group to give up, but... could you please show some mercy? Our company is really relying on this project to turn things around."

Here it comes.

The fox's tail is finally revealed.

Shi Runrun sneered in his heart.

His face showed an embarrassed and soft-hearted expression.

"Well...I don't really understand your business affairs." She said hesitantly, "Besides, I never ask about Xue Zheng's work."

"Please, Senior Sister." Seeing this, Lin Weiwei immediately grabbed her hand, shook it vigorously, and began to act coquettishly, "Just help me mention it to President Xiao Xiao, okay? Just think of it as doing me a favor. After it's done, I... I'll ask my dad to give you a big red envelope!"

Shi Runrun looked at her anxious expression and silently gave her an "Oscar for Best Actress" in her heart.

She pretended to ponder for a long time, and finally, under Lin Weiwei's expectant gaze, she nodded with an embarrassed look on her face.

"Well... okay. All I can say is, I'll try my best. But I can't guarantee it will work."

"Thank you, senior! You are so nice!" Lin Weiwei immediately showed an ecstatic expression and hugged her excitedly.

That night, Shi Runrun returned home and told Xiao Xuezhen everything that had happened during the day, exactly as it happened.

After the man heard this, a cold, knowing smile flashed across his deep black eyes.

"The fox's tail has finally been revealed."

He reached out and touched Shi Runrun's head lovingly. His eyes seemed to be praising a little spy who had completed his undercover mission brilliantly.

"Well done, my lady."

Then, he took her to the study and started discussing how to turn the tables on her.

A wonderful "counter-espionage plan" directed by this scheming couple has officially begun.

The next day, Xiao Xue Zheng deliberately revealed some core information about the bidding plan for the South City Project in a seemingly casual tone when talking to Shi Runrun on the phone.

For example, the bottom line of Guangzheng Group’s final offer.

For example, there was a fatal flaw in their technical solution.

For example, he has recently been in secret contact with another potential partner.

Shi Runrun was very helpful. During the afternoon tea with Lin Weiwei's best friend the next day, she accidentally leaked all the information she had heard.

Lin Weiwei was overjoyed and immediately reported this "priceless" information to her father, Lin Jiandong.

Lin Jiandong was overjoyed, thinking that he had grasped the weakness of Guangzheng Group. He immediately adjusted his bidding strategy overnight based on this false information.

He could never have imagined that he was walking step by step into a huge trap carefully woven for him by Xiao Xue Zheng.

Just when Xiao Xue Zheng's tight net was about to close.

On Qin Feng's side, the in-depth investigation into Lin Jiandong finally made a breakthrough.

A top-secret investigation report that had been sealed for four years was placed back on Xiao Xue Zheng's desk.

The report recorded in detail all the details of the "accidental" car accident four years ago that caused Shi Runrun to leave him.

And at the end of the report, a name suddenly appeared.

In that car accident, in addition to Chi Wanwan who was deceived at the beginning, there were other people involved behind the scenes!

Lin Jiandong.

Xiao Xue Zheng looked at the report, and his handsome face became completely gloomy.

All the blood in his body seemed to freeze at this moment.

He finally understood.

All of this is not a simple business competition at all.

Instead, it was a long-planned, vicious revenge against him and Shi Runrun that spanned four years.

And the word "death" sprayed on the car in red paint was not a business warning at all.

It was a death notice from hell.

Just a beginning.
