Chapter 288: Birds of a feather



"So you're saying the data they have is all fake, and they can't threaten your company?"

"Yes," Lu Zheng said with a smile.

Hearing this, Qiao Zhen finally felt relieved. At this moment, she felt the burning pain on her face and couldn't help but hiss softly.

"What, does your face still hurt?"

At the mention of this, Lu Zheng's face immediately turned as black as charcoal.

Originally, Lu Zheng planned to settle scores after the matter was completely resolved, but seeing how ruthless they were, he felt there was no need to give them any face.

With that in mind, Lu Zheng changed the direction the car was traveling.

Qiao Zhen, who was standing next to her, suddenly remembered something and asked with a worried look.

"When will your company get back on track?"

Upon hearing this, Lu Zheng merely narrowed his eyes: "From now on."

—The Shen family.

Aunt Wang rushed over anxiously: "Madam Shen, something terrible has happened!"

"What is it?" Madam Shen was flustered upon hearing this, because Aunt Wang was usually very steady in her work and had never appeared so flustered before.

Aunt Wang quickly recounted to Madam Shen the whole story of how Cui Yue had hit Qiao Zhen and how Chen Si had acted as an accomplice.

Upon hearing this, Madam Shen's brows furrowed tightly. "Are you telling the truth?"

"It's absolutely true!" Aunt Wang cried out, tears welling up in her eyes. "Madam Shen, please go and see him! We can't afford to offend Mr. Lu!"

"Shut up, do you need to tell me!" Madam Shen rolled her eyes and quickly smiled as she walked downstairs.

Although Lu Zheng's market has completely collapsed, with her keen eye, how could she not see that Lu Zheng was deliberately setting a trap to scheme against his rival?

In other words, Lu Zheng is now very powerful; everything else is just a facade.

"Isn't this President Lu? What brings you here so suddenly? And this lady next to you must be Miss Qiao? Oh my, you look so beautiful. I've often seen you on TV before. I'm so excited to see you in person today."

Madam Shen said with a smile, but in reality, she was trembling with fear.

Chen Si always did things in an unconventional way, and he never discussed important matters with his wife, which made the mother even more mentally exhausted.

Hearing Madam Shen's compliments, Qiao Zhen didn't take them to heart and simply nodded: "Hello, Madam Shen."

As she spoke, Madam Shen warmly invited them in and carefully peeled fruit for them herself.

"Of course, it's something important."

After speaking expressionlessly, Lu Zheng stepped into the hall, sat on the sofa, and acted like the master of the house.

Madam Shen naturally dared not neglect the guest and had to ask Aunt Wang to quickly brew tea to entertain this distinguished guest.

"I wonder if Mr. Lu came here for my daughter?" Madam Shen asked with a guilty look after sitting down.

If they really came for that kind of thing, then they're in big trouble.

Unexpectedly, Lu Zheng said without changing his expression, "I came here today to discuss official business, and also to talk about your daughter."

After saying that, Lu Zheng's eyes flickered, and he said as if he meant something, "You should discipline your daughter properly in the future, and don't let her run around."

"Okay..." After hearing this, Madam Shen wiped the cold sweat from her forehead with lingering fear, thankful that she hadn't asked that kind of question.

Lu Zheng was very efficient in discussing official matters, and his imposing manner left the Shen family no choice but to nod repeatedly, not daring to refute him at all.

"I need five more points for the seaside city project, you have no objections, right?"

After hearing this, the Shen family members were somewhat unwilling, but they dared not refuse.

After all, Young Master Lu always keeps his word, and the Shen family has benefited greatly from this project, so they don't care about this small amount of profit.

Qiao Zhen listened from the side, completely confused, but dared not interrupt.

But if this is what he did to her before, why would he still sign a cooperation agreement with her?

Although Qiao Zhen didn't understand, she chose to believe Lu Zheng unconditionally.

Although Madam Shen was extremely unwilling, she had no choice but to nod and force a smile, saying, "Of course..."

"I have one more request." Lu Zheng tapped the table and said, "The supervisory authority for this order will be given to Qiao Zhen."

"What?"

Upon hearing this, not only Madam Shen, but everyone else in the Shen family turned to look at Qiao Zhen.

They didn't dare look at Lu Zheng, so they could only vent their curiosity on Qiao Zhen.

What kind of magic does this woman possess that makes Lu Zheng go to such lengths for her?

Qiao Zhen, standing to the side, was also completely bewildered. This deal was handed over to her so directly after it was signed, even though she didn't hold any major position in the company.

Although she had a lot of questions in her mind, Madam Shen could only smile and smooth things over: "That's natural. We've all witnessed Miss Qiao's work ability, so it's reasonable to give her the supervisory authority. It's just that Miss Qiao has relatively little experience, so isn't it a bit...?"

As she spoke, Madam Shen prepared to intimately embrace Qiao Zhen, but Qiao Zhen successfully dodged her.

Qiao Zhen forced herself to stay a little distance from Madam Shen, suppressing her nausea.

Madam Shen and Shen Si are birds of a feather.

"Are you questioning me?" Lu Zheng looked at Madam Shen with an unfriendly expression.

Upon hearing this, Madam Shen's smile froze.

Qiao Zhen could clearly feel that Madam Shen's entire body was no longer moving.

“Of course not…” Madam Shen forced a smile, gave Qiao Zhen a meaningful look, and then sat back down.

That little vixen is truly something else; she managed to charm Lu Zheng so completely!

"If there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now."

Not long after Lu Zheng left the Shen family, Madam Shen received a call from Shen Si.

"Mom, please save me! Lu Zheng just beat Cui Yue so badly he was hospitalized. He's still in the ICU. It's all because of that bitch Qiao Zhen!"

The person on the phone sounded very agitated. They told Madam Shen that Lu Zheng's men had taken their phones away, so they couldn't send messages.

Now that he was able to send the message, he immediately called his mother.

Hearing this, Madam Shen, who was already somewhat anxious, became even more worried: "How are you? Are you alright? Did you bump into something or anything?"

Hearing this, Chen Si shook his head and said with some worry, "Mom, you'd better come and see for yourself. I don't know what to do. Cui Yue was beaten badly, and it's uncertain whether he can get out of the ICU."

Upon hearing this, Madam Shen immediately tidied herself up and prepared to come to the hospital to see them.

While tidying up Madam Shen, he gave instructions to Shen Si.

"You all better not mess with Qiao Zhen right now."

Hearing this, Chen Si shuddered and asked somewhat guiltily, "Then what should we do? Is there any harm involved...?"

"There are some things that are inconvenient to say outright, but you can guess."

Hearing Madam Shen's ambiguous words, Shen Si, though somewhat confused, still agreed.

At this moment, Chen Si was still relieved that it was really Cui Yue who had hit Qiao just now, not her.
