Chapter 62: Chen Yang comes to see Bai Shuyu!
As soon as these words were spoken, they looked at each other, and then with a "plop!" sound, they all knelt in a row.
"Boss Xie, please... please forgive us this time... We really know we are wrong! We will never dare to gossip again. Boss Xie, please be magnanimous and let us go!"
After several people finished speaking, they pressed their foreheads tightly against the cold floor and kept begging for mercy. Soon warm blood seeped out from their heads and tears of fear flowed down their faces.
The sound of kowtows mixed with terrified cries echoed in the empty corridor.
Lu Jingyuan, who was waiting in the corridor, heard the sound of ghosts howling in the private room. He paced back and forth and frowned in embarrassment.
He knew these people kneeling on the ground; they were all people in this circle.
If he didn't go in and persuade Xie Yanli, he might have a hard time interacting with them in the future.
However, if he rushed in recklessly like this and Xie Yanli refused to give him this face, he would be embarrassed.
In the end, he decided to wait and see before making a decision.
Xie Yanli leaned on the leather sofa, and slowly tugged at his tie with his bony fingers: "Those who dare to make up stories about me behind my back, you should know what will happen to them."
He glanced at them and said coldly: "Today I will use you guys to set a rule."
The people kneeling on the ground were like frightened birds. They stopped bowing abruptly and their whole bodies were shaking uncontrollably.
When Lu Jingyuan heard this, his eyes sank, and he decided to go back to the private room and wait for him.
Although he had not had much dealings with Xie Yanli, he had heard about Xie Yanli's temper and personality. Xie Yanli was not easy to get along with, especially now that he was angry.
There was no need for him to be unhappy with Xie Yanli because of those idiots. After all, if these people had offended Xie Yanli, his future would not be smooth.
This is how the circle is, friends are fake, only interests are real.
Xie Yanli raised his wrist and looked at his watch nonchalantly, then said lightly, "All of you, get down the stairs right now. If anyone can't get to the first floor within three minutes, I will make sure that his company and his ancestral graves disappear from Beijing City."
Upon hearing this, the kneeling people no longer cared about their status and dignity. They stumbled towards the door and rushed out of the room one after another.
One of them tripped and fell and let out a muffled groan, but no one turned back to help him.
They rushed to the stairs, closed their eyes, and let their bodies roll down the cold steps. Soon, the sounds of banging were heard one after another on the stairs.
Xie Yanli didn't calculate the time, nor did he look at them. He could imagine how miserable these people were at the moment.
He left the private room with a look of disgust, and then went to the private room where he had an appointment with Lu Jingyuan. When Lu Jingyuan saw the door was pushed open, he quickly stood up from the sofa and took two steps at a time to greet Xie Yanli who pushed the door open. He complimented him, "Mr. Xie is indeed a thundering man. It is really admirable. Those who were chattering just now are probably regretting it so much that they want to chew their tongues and swallow them back into their stomachs."
Xie Yanli smiled at him nonchalantly, and said meaningfully: "You can talk about me, but you can't talk about my family."
Lu Jingyuan's eyes darkened. The family Xie Yanli was referring to was the Song family.
Xie Yanli's words were very subtle, especially since the contract issue had just occurred, it seemed as if Xie Yanli wanted to warn him.
But he could also see that Xie Yanli really cared about Song Qiao. In this case, he naturally would not be stupid enough to provoke the Song family.
He immediately apologized with a smile and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Xie. From now on, these people will have to carefully consider what they say and do. They will never dare to cross your bottom line again."
Lu Jingyuan was different from those idiots just now, so there was no need to say much to thank him for the banquet. After a few more polite words, the two of them sat down and started to eat.

Bai Shuyu's eyelashes trembled, and she slowly opened her eyes, and what came into view was Song Qiao's red eyes and Song Zhiming's tense jawline.
The memories before she fainted suddenly came flooding back like a tide. She struggled to sit up, but her body was too weak. She swayed a few times before falling back onto the bed.
"Mom, don't move!" Song Qiao quickly raised her hand to support Bai Shuyu's weak body. She knew what Bai Shuyu was worried about, and quickly said to her: "Mom, the company's affairs have been resolved! As for Lu's..."
Bai Shuyu thought Song Qiao was lying to her. She forced herself to hold on and said with a haggard face, "Qiao Qiao, I know you are worried that my body can't bear it. Don't worry, I can hold on. I want to know how much our company has to pay to the Lu Group? Mortgage real estate, sell cars, sell houses, and collect whatever we can... Can we still not fill this hole?"
After she finished speaking, she looked at Song Zhiming and said in a trembling voice, "Zhiming, are the years of hard work we have put into this business really going to be completely ruined?"
Song Zhiming smiled at her and said seriously, "Shuyu, Qiao Qiao really didn't lie to you. This matter has been resolved. Not only do we not have to pay compensation, but we will also sign a contract with the Lu Group at a normal transaction price."
Bai Shuyu saw that Song Zhiming didn't look like he was lying, so she turned to look at Song Qiao and asked in confusion, "Qiao Qiao, is what your father said true? The Lu Group doesn't need us to pay compensation? How is this possible?"
Song Qiao held Bai Shuyu's hand, smiled and nodded at her, "Mom, we didn't lie to you. This matter is all thanks to Xie Yanli. He personally went to talk to the president of Lu Group. You also know his status in Beijing. With him in the picture, how could Lu not give him face?"
Bai Shuyu was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses. She patted Song Qiao's hand and cried with joy, "Yanli is a really good child. Thanks to him, otherwise our family would be in trouble."
Then she wiped her tears, looked at Song Qiao, and gritted her teeth and warned: "Qiao Qiao, this matter cannot be avoided. Chen Yang did it. You are not allowed to associate with this scumbag again. Our family has been so good to him over the years, but he actually ruined us like this. He is such a bastard."
"Mom, don't worry. How could I care about someone like him?" Song Qiao was also angry when he mentioned him.
Bai Shuyu's eyes flashed, and her gaze fell on Song Qiao's hand. Her eyes lit up, and she asked with concern: "Qiao Qiao, what are your plans for Yan Li's proposal to you?"
Song Qiao then realized that she had been so busy that she forgot to return the diamond ring on her hand to Xie Yanli.
Before she could say anything, Song Zhiming interrupted, "Qiao Qiao, give us a definite answer as to whether the baby in your belly is Xie Yanli's. If it is, I support you two being together. If it is not, we should not overestimate human nature. We will not talk about you and Xie Yanli anymore. Your mother and I can also help you raise the baby in your belly."
Seeing that Bai Shuyu and Song Zhiming were eager to know the truth, Song Qiao didn't want to hide it any longer. After thinking for a few moments, she decided to tell Bai Shuyu and Song Zhiming the truth.
"Dad, Mom, actually I..."
"Auntie, are you feeling better? I came to see you."
Song Qiao was interrupted before she could finish her words. She was stunned when she heard the familiar voice. She turned around angrily and saw Chen Yang standing at the door with flowers in his hands and a smile on his face.
