Chapter 243 Liang Yizhi's Most Unassailable Point
Without specialized equipment or complicated procedures, the laser control panel lit up the instant the wires were connected, and a clear system prompt sounded: "External emergency power supply is connected, system is ready."
The whole process took only two or three breaths.
Ji Ying pressed the start button, and a huge laser beam shot out, quickly melting through the thick steel plate in the distance.
The light clearly illuminated every shocked and speechless face below the stage.
You have to understand, what she just did was tantamount to trying to start a broken-down tank with a small battery.
The presentation ended in complete silence.
Xiao Chang held the microphone and said in an extremely soft voice, "Our battery is still at 100%."
After a brief silence, even those who were initially skeptical were convinced.
The audience erupted in applause, and reporters immediately tried to interview Ji Ying, but Xiao Chang blocked them.
It's enough that the whole world knows Ji Ying's name.
He protected her and left from the side of the stage.
Xue Qin, backstage, touched his forehead and closed his eyes.
What she tried to do backfired and actually made Ji Ying even more successful.
This time, he'll probably get a beating.
After getting into the company's van, Ji Ying and several colleagues organized the equipment inside.
At this moment, Xue Qin came over, stood by the car, and hesitated to speak.
Ji Ying saw him and got out of the car.
"Have I dragged you into this?"
She seemed to know everything.
Xue Qin hesitated for a moment, then gestured with his chin toward the red flag not far away, saying, "He's a tiny bit angry."
Ji Ying turned around, said a few words to her colleagues, and then headed towards the Hongqi car.
Opening the car door, Liang Yizhi sat in the back seat, not glancing at her movements, only staring at the empty concrete pillars in front of him.
Ji Ying got into the car, which was filled with a light, snow-white gentian fragrance.
Do you know the consequences of doing this?
Liang Yizhi's voice was low and unreadable, but the distinct knuckles of his hand on his thigh betrayed the emotions he was trying so hard to suppress.
Ji Ying was unimpressed. "I've become famous. In the future, my name, Ji Ying, will be an undeniable presence in the new energy industry."
Liang Yizhi frowned at her words, "Is it really necessary to do it this way?"
Ji Ying nodded truthfully, "Isn't it because I envy you? People the police don't want to arrest, they can arrest with just a word, and people the police don't want to release, they can release with just a word... euphemistically called 'bail'."
Liang Yizhi finally turned his head to look at her, his deep eyes filled with too many emotions she couldn't understand.
He sighed softly, "I've already explained Xie Yunshu's matter to you. You shouldn't act so impulsively; doing so is too dangerous for you."
Ji Ying pursed her lips. "I accept your explanation, but I still feel uneasy. Liang Yizhi, how long can you protect me? Can you guarantee that you will never be forced into a situation where you have to choose between two options in your life? If such a time does come, can you guarantee that you can put everything aside and firmly choose me?"
These words struck Liang Yizhi in the most unassailable place.
The pain in his eyes deepened. He closed his eyes briefly, and when he opened them again, all that remained was a bottomless weariness.
“Yingying, you have no idea what you’re facing right now. Some risks are not for you to take.”
"Oh?" Ji Ying raised an eyebrow, her tone slightly amusement. "It sounds like Chairman Liang knows something inside? How dangerous is it? Why don't you tell me?"
Liang Yizhi's Adam's apple bobbed, and words welled up on his tongue, but when he met her clear yet playful eyes, he was forced to retreat.
He vividly remembered Shen Jingxiu's experiences back then, but he couldn't mention them.
Ji Ying took in his momentary struggle and silence, and gave a cold, light laugh.
"Since you can't be sure, what right do you have to criticize my actions of 'protecting' myself today? Isn't it a helpless situation that I chose the lesser of two evils?"
After she finished speaking, she decisively pushed open the car door and got out of the car.
Meanwhile, Xiao Chang returned from the meeting. After exchanging a few words with her, the two of them got into Qing Sui's van with their other colleagues.
Xue Qin returned to the driver's seat and secretly glanced at the rearview mirror.
Liang Yizhi's face was ashen, the veins on the back of his hand resting on his knees were bulging, and his knuckles were slightly white from the force he was exerting.
Having followed him for so many years, I've rarely seen him get this angry.
Xue Qin composed himself and cautiously said, "Boss, the base is urging you to go there as soon as possible."
Liang Yizhi rubbed his temples and said in a deep voice, "Let's go."
He picked up his phone and messaged Ji Ying, saying he couldn't come back that night, but Ji Ying didn't reply.
The summit ended in the morning, but Qing Sui's phone was ringing off the hook in the afternoon.
This previously little-known company saw its website and switchboard completely flooded with transoceanic calls from global capital and giants within hours, and its valuation soared in the venture capital market as if injected with superconducting fuel.
However, Ji Ying remained calm and did not even attend the celebration banquet organized by Xiao Chang.
She went to Xiao Xia's hospital room to say goodbye.
She went to Xiao Xia's hospital room alone.
The pure white room was silent, save for the regular ticking of the monitor, which proved that the person in the bed was still alive.
Ji Ying gently took her slightly cool hand and pressed it against her cheek.
"Xiaxia, I'm leaving. I'm going to Beijing..."
Her nose felt a little sore, and she forced herself to suppress her fluctuating emotions before she could continue.
"I must find the best heart for you and wake you up."
At that moment, the ward door was gently pushed open.
Ji Ying quickly wiped away the tears in her eyes and turned her head away.
When Liang Yanchuan entered, he saw that her eyes were red and immediately asked, "Did you have a fight with Liang Yizhi?"
Ji Ying turned her face away, her voice a little hoarse: "It's none of your business."
Liang Yanchuan walked to her side, looked at Xiao Xia, whose eyes were closed in the ward, and his gaze was complicated.
You went to Beijing without telling him?
Ji Ying put Xiao Xia's hand back under the covers, walked to the window, suppressed her turbulent emotions again, and took a deep breath before saying, "I remember everything."
Liang Yanchuan was shocked. "You remember who your parents are? You know where your home is?"
“I am someone they abandoned; whether I remember them or not is unimportant. But for Liang Yizhi…”
Ji Ying turned to look at him, her eyes filled with clear pain.
"I can't bring myself to hate him, but I can't let go of the thorn he's pierced my heart. Going to Beijing to separate for a while is the best solution right now."
Seeing her trying to suppress her sadness, Liang Yanchuan felt a tightness in his chest, and an unprecedented impulse shattered his reason.
He stepped forward, gripped her shoulders tightly with both hands, and forced her to turn towards him.
