"Huh? What did you say?"
Chen Zhongzheng snapped out of his thoughts and looked at his secretary with a surprised expression: "I was thinking about something! What did you just say?"
"Ahem, I mean... the price offered by the Long Group has increased by a few percentage points again. This is the fifth price increase already. Should we continue to make purchases?"
"Oh, that's it! You should talk to the purchasing department and let them make their own decision!"
"Phew! Yes, Mr. Chen!"
The secretary looked at Chen Zhongzheng, then pondered for a moment before saying, "Mr. Chen, you must take care of your health! The Yuanfang Group is counting on you now! We can't afford any mistakes!"
Chen Zhongzheng weakly put down the report in his hand, lay back on the sofa, and gently waved his hand: "I know, you can go out now! By the way, how is Chen Yan now?"
The secretary sighed, "What else can we do? Sister Yan is insisting on opening the entrances and exits to the urban area every day, but how is that possible! The water level in the industrial zone has already risen to over fifty meters. If we open the exits, the entire urban area will be affected!"
"Okay, I got it! By the way, where is she?"
"They're still causing trouble with the garrison troops!"
"Sigh! This girl..."
After saying this, Chen Zhongzheng sighed and stood up, revealing even more white hair at his temples.
The secretary quietly left the office, and Chen Zhongzheng stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, gazing in the direction of the industrial zone, his heart filled with mixed feelings.
"Lu Yuan...are they really dead? No, he has that mysterious space, he should be alright! But...he might never have a chance to come out!"
After saying that, Chen Zhongzheng stood up, went downstairs, and drove directly to the urban area.
Walls have already begun to be built outside the entrances and exits of the urban area.
The garrison troops are maintaining a tight defense here.
A young woman angrily brandished a wooden stick and tried to rush in again.
However, the garrison soldiers gave her no chance and shoved Chen Yan heavily to the ground.
At this moment, Chen Yan's body was covered in dirt, and her expensive clothes were no longer recognizable.
Lying on the ground, Chen Yan, with tears in her eyes, kept shouting while holding a wooden stick, while the soldiers of the garrison watched the show with their arms crossed, showing her no sympathy whatsoever.
A man standing not far away had anger and helplessness in his eyes.
"Swallow, let's go back!"
Hei Zi stepped forward and gently pulled Chen Yan up, but she forcefully shook him off.
"Don't touch me! You coward! You're just a wimp!"
Hei Zi was a little angry. He had been making a scene with Chen Yan for two days, and he didn't know how many times Chen Yan had scolded him in those two days.
He is now somewhat disappointed in Chen Yan.
"Lu Yuan is your brother, are you just going to watch him die in there? You coward! You wimp! I truly regret ever knowing you!"
"Enough!"
Heizi stepped forward and grabbed the other person, trying to take her back.
"Let go!"
Chen Yan fought back with all her might, but how could she possibly be a match for Hei Zi? Her wrist was aching from Hei Zi's grip, and she glared angrily at Hei Zi with tears in her eyes.
"I told you to let go, didn't you hear me?"
With a loud "smack," Hei Zi slapped Chen Yan hard across the face.
"That's enough! Lu Yuan is dead! They're all dead! Don't be stupid! You've made a scene, you've fought! What else do you want to do? Do you think you can save him? Stop dreaming! Even if you find him, he'll probably be a corpse! Look behind you!"
With that, Hei Zi angrily twisted Chen Yan's body around, turning her to face the direction of the urban area.
"There are millions of people inside. If you open the entrances and exits regardless of the consequences, what will happen to these people when the radioactive water rushes out? Are you planning to let so many people die for one man?"
Chen Yan looked at Hei Zi with a wronged and unwilling expression on her face, covering her cheeks.
Finally, tears welled up in her eyes, and Chen Yan cried loudly like a child.
Hei Zi pulled Chen Yan into his arms.
"Lu Yuan will be fine! He's stronger than a cockroach! Don't worry! Let's go back! We'll think of something else!"
Chen Yan was already sobbing uncontrollably. She buried her face in Hei Zi's shoulder and wailed heartbreakingly, her tears soaking Hei Zi's clothes. She opened her mouth and bit Hei Zi's shoulder.
I hate you!
After saying that, Chen Yan ran towards the car.
At this moment, Chen Zhongzheng, who had just arrived, saw this scene and immediately sighed.
"Oh! These damned people!"
Hei Zi, dragging his weary body, said to his assistant beside him, "Keep an eye on her!"
The assistant nodded, then got into the car and immediately followed Chen Yan with his entourage.
Chen Zhongzheng quietly walked up to Hei Zi, took out a cigarette from his pocket, and handed it to him.
Hei Zi silently lit a cigarette. The pain in his shoulder made it difficult for him to lift it, but Chen Yan's words, "I hate you," had hurt him the most.
"That's just how Yanzi is, she's so stubborn! You won't take it to heart, will you?"
Hei Zi took a deep drag on his cigarette, then looked at Chen Zhongzheng with a hint of annoyance: "Uncle Chen, I just don't understand! Why is it that even though I'm so good to her, she insists on liking a married man? Am I really that bad?"
"Forehead……"
Chen Zhongzheng was speechless for a moment.
"This might be... what they call love at first sight! It's okay, once Xiaoshan fully recovers her memories, she'll probably give up!"
