When Han Lingxi woke up again, Chong Rang had been gone for quite some time. In any case, Han Lingxi was awakened by hunger.
The original owner didn't have the habit of cooking at home and always ate out, so there weren't many ingredients at home. Han Lingxi was a skilled cook but couldn't cook without rice, so she could only get ready and go out to find food.
Han Lingxi searched her memory for a store that the original owner frequented, but when she went downstairs she realized that she had left her car at the company, so she had to take a taxi there first.
The food at this restaurant was mediocre, far from the deliciousness the original owner remembered. Han Lingxi suspected that her master-level cooking skills had spoiled her palate. While eating, she thought about buying some ingredients to take home and cook for herself in the future.
"Lingxi!"
A surprised voice rang out, and Han Lingxi looked up to see Luo Xi walking towards her with a smile on her face.
Han Lingxi squinted at Luo Xi as she walked over. If Luo Xi hadn't shown up, she would have almost forgotten about her, her good "best friend".
"It's so great to see you here! I was just thinking of asking you to go shopping together."
Luo Xi said happily that Han Lingxi just watched her performance with a relaxed attitude.
In reality, Luo Xi wasn't that clever. Her association with the original owner was merely a ploy to leverage the power of the original owner's family company for her own benefit. At the same time, her intention to use the original owner as a stepping stone to find a wealthy husband was quite obvious. Only the original owner was foolish enough not to see it, thinking that Luo Xi was her good friend.
It's not entirely the original owner's fault. Having just returned from abroad, she didn't have many friends in China. She happened to run into a classmate from junior high school, so she naturally felt a special closeness to her. Later, she was blinded by this longing for friendship and couldn't see Luo Xi's true colors.
"Lingxi, what's wrong with you? Why are you looking at me like that? Are you upset that I haven't come to visit you these past few days? I was just worried that you'd sneak out of the company and get scolded by your mom again."
Luo Xi explained with a wronged expression, as if Han Lingxi had misunderstood her.
"No, I'm not blaming you. I've been busy with company projects these past few days."
Han Lingxi replied.
Luo Xi's expression stiffened for a moment. When did Han Lingxi become able to take on projects?
Han Lingxi naturally didn't believe Luo Xi's nonsense. During this time, Luo Xi should have been busy with her own company's affairs. She had obtained the project plan of the Han family company from her, so naturally she wanted to go home and try to win over her father.
Han Lingxi remembered that a few days ago, Luo Xi pretended to come to the company to visit her, but actually secretly took pictures of a project plan. Although the plan sent to Han Lingxi was not the final one, the general direction remained the same.
Luo Xi learned about the competitive direction of the Han family's company through this document, and then cooperated with a company that was hostile to the Han family to win the project in the bidding process.
Unfortunately, this project was the one that the Han family and Chong Rang had collaborated on. The failure to win the bid caused Chong Rang a lot of trouble. Although Chong Rang was able to quickly recover the company thanks to his abilities, he still missed many opportunities. This is why Han Lingxi agreed to take on this project.
"What project?"
Luo Xi asked casually.
"It's the project you saw a few days ago."
Han Lingxi's seemingly casual answer sent a chill down Luo Xi's spine. Did she know something? But that shouldn't be the case. Han Lingxi was just a good-for-nothing who only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun. Apart from being born into a good family, she was useless. What could she possibly know? Luo Xi tried to reassure herself.
