The call was from her overseas business partner, who canceled the cooperation with her on the grounds that she had not taken over Dongsong as previously promised.
This is a very important partner, almost equivalent to half of her 'family' influence.
After returning to China, she faced setbacks everywhere. She had already lost her initial advantage and foundation in Dong Song. From now on, she would either fully support Song Beiye or face this fate.
"Tang Li!"
After hanging up the phone, Xi Leng gritted her teeth and called out Tang Li's name.
Anger and hatred could not change the current situation. Xi Leng called his friends overseas and received the following reply:
Who exactly did you offend in the country?
The meaning is quite clear.
Someone is deliberately trying to frame her.
The person who could extend his reach overseas and act so swiftly and ruthlessly to avenge Tang Li was none other than Lu Zhixing!
A Song Dynasty southern prefecture.
One Lu Zhixing.
"Tang Li, you shameless woman."
Xi Leng twisted the bed sheet fiercely, completely ignoring the pain all over his body.
Outside the ward, He Junshu, who was rushing to the hospital after receiving a phone call, almost accidentally entered Xi Ling's ward.
It's so dramatic; Xiling is also staying in a VIP ward, right next to Huo Chenyu's.
Both of them were beaten up by Lu Zhu.
When He Junshu mentioned to Huo Chenyu that Xi Leng was in the next ward, Huo Chenyu found it strange. He called over a nurse to ask, and the nurse said that Xi Leng had fallen on his own.
I shouldn't have fallen so badly.
Based on Huo Chenyu's experience, he grabbed He Junshu's hand and looked at him.
He Junshu suddenly felt a chill run down his spine:
"You bastard, what are you trying to do? Did your sexual orientation suddenly change after being hurt by Tang Li? Let me tell you, although I have a mixed-race face that is more exquisite and beautiful than the average girl, my sexual orientation is normal. Don't even think about hitting on me."
Huo Chenyu was speechless.
"I want you to help me investigate what happened after I passed out tonight."
He Junshu saw through it at a glance:
"I asked the nurse when I came here, and she said you were brought here by Xiling. So you want me to run errands for you and investigate where your Tang Li baby is? What was she doing when you fainted, right?"
In short, he just wanted to know if Tang Li still cared about him.
If it weren't for his injuries, Huo Chenyu would have really wanted to throw him out.
He Junshu checked the time:
"Sigh, I won't be able to sleep tonight. Fortunately, I'm used to the reversed time zone. I'll go check for you right away."
This matter is easy to investigate.
The hotel has surveillance cameras and so many staff members.
One question was all it took to find out what had happened.
Back in the ward, He Junshu presented Huo Chenyu with everyone's statements and the video evidence he had obtained.
"It seems she deserved what she got."
The phrase "he deserved it" was not enough to quell Huo Chenyu's anger.
Huo Chenyu pondered for a moment:
"She must have been taught a lesson by Song Nanzhou."
"What? You're going to turn against your best friend for a woman who hurt your ex-wife?" That was He Junshu's first reaction.
After being glared at by Huo Chenyu, he sighed:
"Speak, what do you want me to do this time? Let me make it clear beforehand, I'm not like Song Nanzhou. I never make a move on girls."
Huo Chenyu pointed to the assistant who pushed Tang Li in the video and said:
"Then let's go beat him up."
It was late at night, and He Junshu yawned: "A gentleman takes revenge, it's never too late to wait a night, look how late it is..."
He Junshu was speaking when his eyes met Huo Chenyu's. He quickly stood up.
"Alright, alright, I'll go right now. In this world, the only one who dares to tell me, He Junshu, to finish today's business today is you, you bastard. I must have owed you something in my past life."
He Junshu went out, muttering to himself.
Half an hour later, he returned, panting. Seeing that Huo Chenyu was still awake, he gulped down a whole bottle of mineral water before sitting down by the bedside.
"You damned bastard, someone beat you to it. I searched everywhere for this guy, only to find him lying in this hospital with a dislocated hand and a broken leg. The injuries aren't too bad, but he's terrified. He keeps saying he encountered a ghost who died of illness downstairs in the middle of the night."
It must be because Lu Zhu attacked too quickly, too accurately, and too ruthlessly.
In addition, hospitals are places with the heaviest yin energy, so some people who have done bad things are prone to feeling guilty and their mentality collapses suddenly.
"I heard his family came, and they're going to have a psychiatrist come for a consultation with him first thing tomorrow morning."
They were pretty ruthless.
"I'm a step behind," Huo Chenyu sighed, and after thinking it over, he turned his gaze to He Junshu again.
He Junshu shuddered:
"You rascal, just say what you want to say. Don't stare at me like that, it's scary."
Huo Chenyu grinned mischievously:
"Over the years, you've been keeping an eye on Xiling's situation overseas for me."
He Junshu screamed:
"Huo Chenyu, do you think I'm a peanut that can be pressed for oil?"
Huo Chenyu looked at him calmly:
"Peanut oil is good, but it's not as fragrant as rapeseed oil. It's such a waste not to press it thoroughly!"
If you can't use a brother as a scapegoat, you have to find some other use for him.
It's good to squeeze it out occasionally.
He Junshu was busy that night.
It's all just busywork for nothing.
As dawn approached, He Junshu, after making inquiries from various sources, told Huo Chenyu, who was wide awake, "Most of her overseas clients have withdrawn."
It wasn't even Huo Chenyu's turn to make a move.
He Junshu clicked his tongue in admiration:
"Actually, she's quite pitiful. It's been about ten years since she confessed to you. I remember she was still a minor when she was in a hurry to make you her own, but you rejected her harshly and she went abroad. All the capital she accumulated over ten years abroad has been wiped out overnight, just because her assistant pushed Tang Li."
