Chapter 103 I'll tell you everything!
When Gu Youran received the news, her face looked like she was constipated.
That bastard Li Huaijin must have done it on purpose!
It was intentional!
He actually schemed against Weiwei, that bastard!
You must be sleepy!
Gu Youran stormed into Li Huaijin's office in a fit of rage, pointing at him arrogantly and cursing, "You bastard, how dare you bully my Weiwei, bully her innocent and kind nature!"
Li Huaijin couldn't help but roll his eyes: "Do you think I could bully Luo Zhiwei with Lu Jingxiao around?"
Gu Youran: "......"
It seems not.
She glanced at Li Huaijin somewhat guiltily, and asked hesitantly, "Then why did Weiwei say she wanted to treat you to dinner, saying it was to apologize?"
"She probably felt that coming to my house would be too much of a disturbance. This is perfectly normal. Without you by my side, how could she possibly have dinner with me?"
That seems to make sense.
Weiwei only said that she wanted to apologize to Li Huaijin and asked her to do so as well.
Although Weiwei didn't say it explicitly, she knew that Li Huaijin was using Weiwei's incident today as an excuse. With Lu Jingxiao around, even if Weiwei smashed up Li Huaijin's house, he wouldn't say a word.
But he still did it, which means... he did it on purpose.
It's impossible for Lu Jingxiao to deliberately make things difficult for Weiwei; he wouldn't allow it.
That means making things difficult for Weiwei!
So what if I kicked him before? Is it really worth holding a grudge until now?
Um... she didn't seem to apologize or anything afterward.
So... Li Huaijin's actions today were aimed at her.
Okay, okay, so this is how you play it? Just you wait!
"Sure, it's just a meal. Weiwei doesn't have much money; she's invested it all. This meal is on me. Don't worry, I'll make sure you eat and drink well."
Li Huaijin raised an eyebrow smugly: "Alright, then I'll wait and see."
It would be better if Gu Youran treated everyone; if Luo Zhiwei treated everyone, he would have to reciprocate later.
When it was time to leave work, Gu Youran prepared to leave early so she could pick up Weiwei and go out to eat together.
To his surprise, he was caught red-handed by Li Huaijin as soon as he reached the door: "Where are you going?"
"I'll go pick up Weiwei. You go to the restaurant first. Weiwei and I will be there in a bit."
After Gu Youran finished speaking, she took a step to leave, but Li Huaijin grabbed her and pulled her back: "You don't need to go. Miss Luo is already on her way. We'll take my car and you can leave yours at the company."
Gu Youran: "???"
Why?
I have a car!
"No need, let's each drive our own cars."
I don't really want to ride in your car.
To everyone's surprise, Li Huaijin ignored her completely and dragged her into his car.
Gu Youran: "......"
Why do I feel like I've been tricked?
"Li Huaijin, what exactly are you trying to do?"
"I didn't do anything."
Li Huaijin stepped on the gas, and the car shot off.
Even if Gu Youran wanted to resist, she had no chance.
**
When they arrived at the restaurant, Luo Zhiwei was indeed waiting early. The three of them also requested a private room, giving them ample privacy.
Gu Youran sat down naturally next to Luo Zhiwei, and she didn't forget to arrange for Li Huaijin: "President Li, why don't you sit across from us? We sisters have something to talk about."
Li Huaijin didn't care and sat down on her other side.
Seeing the tension between them, Luo Zhiwei stepped in to smooth things over: "President Li, do you have any dishes you like...?"
"Order whatever you like, I'm fine with it, I'm not picky. Overall, the food here is pretty good."
After all, it was the place he chose, so he must have eaten there before.
Gu Youran took the menu directly, glanced at it, and thought it was alright, not too expensive, and acceptable.
"Since you two are so reluctant, I'll have some."
She quickly ordered seven or eight dishes. The portions were relatively small, so ordering a couple more wouldn't have been a problem.
Just as Luo Zhiwei was about to speak and apologize to Li Huaijin, her phone rang.
"Hello, Mr. Lu?"
"Now?"
"But I am..."
Luo Zhiwei handed the phone to Li Huaijin, somewhat awkwardly saying, "Mr. Li, it's Mr. Lu calling. Do you want to answer it?"
Li Huaijin pretended to answer the phone: "Third brother, Miss Luo is inviting me to dinner."
"Now."
"Alright, then you owe me a meal." Li Huaijin reluctantly agreed.
He hung up the phone and handed it to Luo Zhiwei, looking like he understood everything: "Miss Luo, the third brother has something urgent to discuss with you today, so you can go ahead. Miss Gu can handle things here."
Luo Zhiwei looked at Gu Youran with some difficulty and felt very guilty: "Ranran..."
"Weiwei, if you have something to do, go ahead. I'm fine here. It was I who offended President Li, and I must sincerely apologize."
Luo Zhiwei: "??"
Li Huaijin: "......"
That guy was up to no good!
——
As soon as Luo Zhiwei stepped out of the restaurant, she saw Lu Jingxiao's car. She frowned, her eyes filled with conflict, and got into the car. As soon as she saw Lu Jingxiao, she went straight to the point: "You're already here, why did you call me away?"
Why not just go in and have a meal together?
Why not just not go in, but also call her away?
"Of course I called you away because I had something to discuss," Lu Jingxiao said seriously. "Lin Wanru gave me some instructions. Would you like to listen?"
Luo Zhiwei's expression changed drastically, and she became serious: "What did she say?"
"Go and listen for yourself..."
Lu Jingxiao quickly brought Luo Zhiwei to Lin Wanru, the mother and daughter who were locked up together.
When Lin Wanru saw Luo Zhiwei, it was like seeing a lifeline. She immediately knelt down in front of Weiwei and said, "Luo Zhiwei, please save me, please save me. I'll tell you everything, I'll tell you everything."
"You have to say something useful to me. If it's something I want to hear, I'll let you go."
Lin Wanru was driven almost crazy; all she wanted now was to get out, get out!
"I'll talk, I'll talk." She hesitated for a long time before finally speaking with difficulty: "Your mother didn't die of illness, she was poisoned."
Luo Zhiwei snorted coldly. Her indifferent pupils were devoid of any warmth, like frost, sending chills down one's spine: "I already know. Zhao Tingguo cut off your escape route in order to save his own life."
Lin Wanru was shocked: "What?!"
That damned Zhao Tingguo, he doesn't even care whether she lives or dies!
"No, I also have secrets that Zhao Tingguo doesn't know." Lin Wanru was also forced into a corner and could only try to save herself.
If Zhao Tingguo is doing the first day of the month, then she will do the fifteenth.
Tell me about it.
Luo Zhiwei seemed to have regained her former haughty demeanor, but this superior's posture was not agile, but rather filled with loneliness, surrounded by the cold winter.
Lin Wanru did not say it directly: "As long as you release me and my daughter, I will tell you everything I know, including things that Zhao Tingguo doesn't know, as well as your secrets."
Luo Zhiwei was taken aback for a moment.
I?
What other secrets do I have?
"impossible."
"Then I won't say!" Lin Wanru also remained defiant.
If she doesn't reveal the secret, at least she can live. If revealing it won't save her and her daughter's lives, then she'd rather not tell.
Luo Zhiwei's face flushed with anger: "Tell me, as long as it works, I can let your daughter leave. You and Zhao Tingguo have no chance."
Zhao Yulan looked at Lin Wanru pleadingly, wanting to leave: "Mom..."
