Chapter 153 The CEO's Actions
"Hmph! Very well, you dare not answer my call!"
After Xia Chengan failed to answer the phone for the thirtieth time, he angrily slammed the phone onto the bed.
The assistant stood nervously to the side, wiping away sweat.
I silently told myself, "I've already smashed the phone, so I can't hit him anymore."
If you hit him, you need to file a workers' compensation claim and also pay compensation for emotional distress.
All together, it's much more expensive than a mobile phone.
"Go and find out. I need to know where Zhou Ran is within five minutes!"
"Yes, Mr. President!"
The assistant wiped his sweat. A worker's life is precious too; how could he possibly know where Young Master Zhou was in five minutes?
He walked out of the ward and silently dialed Zhou Shao's number.
"Hey! Xiaoying, what's up?"
"Young Master Zhou, where are you?"
The assistant breathed a sigh of relief; Zhou Shao was still willing to answer his calls, thankfully the matter was easy to resolve.
"Did your CEO ask that?"
"Yes, my CEO saw the photos of you meeting with other people and contacted me to add you to the list, asking me to find you."
The assistant was telling the truth.
They are just working people, so they should be aware of who their masters are.
Their CEO once said that the Xia family and the company would listen to Madam.
He's lost his memory now, but the order hasn't been cancelled.
Of course, we must do as instructed and obey the lady's orders.
Moreover, judging from the current situation...
The president has lost his memory; he'll probably have to listen to his wife from now on.
Why did he offend the lady, so that she would make things difficult for him later?
A wise and capable person is one who understands the times.
He is pragmatic.
The assistant thoughtfully explained the president's recent situation.
No matter how small the matter.
Zhou Ran listened lazily.
"Yeah, I'm at home, but I don't want to see him lately. Do you know what to do?"
"Understood, Young Master Zhou. Please rest, I won't bother you any longer."
"Um."
Zhou Ran hung up the phone and thought that Qi Ying was a pretty good assistant. He was pragmatic and perceptive, no wonder he was a special assistant.
After hanging up the phone, Qi Ying breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that less than five minutes had passed.
He returned to the ward, where Xia Chenggan, who had been watching him closely, immediately looked up.
"Found it?"
"Found her. Madam has already gone home. The servants said she has washed up and gone to bed. She specifically instructed that no one should go up and disturb her."
"Hmph! He's quite clever; after causing trouble, he knows to go back and pretend to be well!"
Xia Chenggan's anger subsided somewhat.
Thinking back to the scene in the previous photo, I wondered why he was angry, while the little devil went back to sleep peacefully.
He was going to find Zhou Ran and had a bad time.
Just thinking about it makes me want to get out of bed and go back.
Qi Ying quickly stopped him; the president couldn't be allowed to leave now.
"President, your health is of utmost importance. The doctor has advised you to rest in bed, and Madam is asleep now. If you go back in a fit of anger and start arguing with her again, it will only damage your relationship."
Xia Chenggan withdrew his movement and looked at Qi Ying.
"You're on his side? You're my special assistant, you're on his side."
Seeing Xia Chenggan's insightful gaze, he knew he couldn't hide it from him.
Qi Ying said frankly.
"Yes, I am only biased towards the Madam. Everyone else is biased towards him. This was your order. We must obey the Madam's orders. If there is any conflict with your orders, the Madam's orders shall prevail."
"Did I really say that? I actually delegated so much authority to him?"
Xia Chenggan pointed to his nose in disbelief.
Was he bewitched, or was he simply blinded by love?
How could there be such an exaggerated order?
They actually handed over all the power and control they held.
He also gave it to a man with whom he had a marriage agreement.
Is he sick?
"You are healthy and have always been healthy during your physical examinations."
Qi Ying understood Xia Chenggan's look and explained.
"We asked you the same question before, and you said..."
Seeing that Qi Ying seemed hesitant to speak, Xia Chenggan pressed her for details.
"Just tell me, I won't make things difficult for you."
"You said that the lady is an extremely intelligent person, and she is very guarded. If you want her heart, you have to give your own heart. Only by making a big bet can you have a chance of winning!"
"I risked everything just to gamble on his sincerity? Am I crazy?!"
Xia Chenggan couldn't believe it. He was just betting on someone's sincerity? How could that be?
When true nature changes, where does power come from?
He risked everything for one person?
This doesn't seem like his style.
Qi Ying gave a wry smile.
“You’re not crazy. I saw it with my own eyes. You’re perfectly lucid. If you could regain your memories, you would definitely regret pushing Madam away recently.”
Qi Ying witnessed firsthand how Xia Chenggan went to great lengths to break into Zhou Shao's life.
Even bitter fruit is still fruit; even knowing that there is no hope of redemption, one should not let go.
Their resolve was so resolute that it was frightening to watch.
At the same time, Qi Ying also admired his courage.
They have the courage and means to go all out.
If it weren't for this unexpected incident, the president would probably have gotten what he wanted.
After all, they were so close before.
Xia Chenggan fell into deep thought.
He suspected more than once that these people were lying to him.
Everyone around him was lying to him.
How could he so ridiculously risk everything for one person?
He was never the kind of person who acted on emotion.
Moreover, this can be seen from Zhou Ran's attitude.
Zhou Ran doesn't like him.
Of course, I don't dislike it either.
He would do anything for someone he didn't like.
It's not like a melodramatic novel, how could that be?
But everything that followed proved it true.
His missing memories are very important.
It was so important that even without memory, the body didn't forget the feeling.
He took the photo.
Looking at Zhou Ran, who was laughing happily with someone above.
Why would he think that?
Zhou Ran isn't like that?
She shouldn't be so harmless, she shouldn't smile so innocently, she shouldn't smile so defenselessly.
But he just couldn't remember what Zhou Ran looked like.
He remembered everything except Zhou Ran.
This is wrong in itself.
"Get me the best psychology experts and the best hypnotists."
"yes."
Qi Ying quickly went to take care of it.
Xia Chenggan clenched his fist, crumpling the photo in his hand.
Since it's something important, we should try to get it back.
Xia Chenggan was never one to sit idly by and wait for his doom.
The banquet hall is on the second floor.
Nanzi let the makeup artist do her makeup.
Xiao Yao sat quietly by his side, her usual chatter gone.
Two bodyguards stood at the door not far away, their eyes fixed on them.
Nanzi has a headache.
She knew she couldn't hide for long.
I didn't expect to be caught so quickly.
She and Xiao Yao had just parted ways with Zhou Ran when they arrived at their apartment building, only to be grabbed and brought back home.
They were detained for two whole days.
Their uncle confiscated their phones, cutting off all contact between them and the outside world.
They also had bodyguards watch over them to prevent them from escaping.
All of this is for today's engagement party.
Today was supposed to be her cousin's engagement party, but now it's hers.
Judging from the situation, she has no way to escape.
There was a knock on the door.
Someone pushed the door open and came in.
Seeing the familiar face, Nanzi didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
"My Nannan is so beautiful!!"
"Mom, actually I..."
They crave freedom.
Nanzi's mother didn't give her daughter a chance to speak, and pressed down on her shoulders.
"Mom knows you've been wronged, but there's nothing we can do. If we want to make a living, we have to compromise. The Xia family is a good match; they won't mistreat you after you marry into their family."
"That sounds nice, but why doesn't my cousin marry that Fourth Young Master Xia?"
Nanzi was filled with resentment. If possible, who would want to marry into a family to bring good luck, especially to someone who was about to die?
"Don't talk nonsense. It has nothing to do with your cousin. This marriage was arranged by both families a long time ago. It was decided by the elders of both families long ago."
The Xia family is the richest family; if you marry into their family, you won't be mistreated.
Nanzi sneered. When people are utterly disappointed, they really have nothing to say.
She knew her mother was weak.
These years have been pitiful.
But I never expected it.
Some people's misfortune is entirely their own fault.
They are not worth saving.
They won't take advantage of your kindness to climb out of the mire.
They will use all their strength to drag you into the mire and stay with you.
"You'd better behave at today's banquet. These are all celebrities, people our family can't afford to offend..."
Mom was still talking nonstop.
Nanzi didn't want to listen to it at all.
She knew she couldn't escape.
She was unable to escape.
It's truly tragic.
The banquet hall downstairs gradually filled up with people.
Those who arrived first were all of low status.
They need more time to socialize and need to arrive early to show politeness.
As for those who are truly powerful and influential, they will not arrive early, nor will they be rudely late.
Guan Yi followed a boss into the banquet hall early in the morning.
Their arrival went unnoticed.
Even if someone notices, they won't care.
He's just a small business owner and a minor celebrity; there's no need for them to get to know each other.
Guan Yi straightened her clothes, put on a polite smile, and followed her boss to entertain him.
While the boss was talking, I stood quietly to the side.
This is a top-tier banquet; he can't afford to offend anyone there.
His positioning was accurate.
It's just a foil.
It's better to keep quiet than to say anything; just be a pretty face and get some recognition.
"The Fu family has arrived!"
Hearing the shouts, everyone headed towards the door.
As one of the main players, the Fu family's status may rise after today, so it's always good to be on good terms with them.
The Fu family was welcomed at the banquet, and waves of people went over to curry favor with them.
It was all flattery; not a single word was unpleasant.
When a person reaches a certain position, they are surrounded by praise, and nothing else is said.
Fu Xuan stood at the very back, looking around boredly.
I accidentally saw Guan Yi's face.
Why does he look so familiar? Where have I seen him before?
I can't remember at all.
Li Quan broke away from the flatterers and went to Fu Xuan's side.
I originally wanted to pat him on the shoulder.
Then I saw Fu Xuan staring at someone.
Following his gaze, I met Guan Yi's smiling face.
"You know him?"
"I don't recognize him, but he looks familiar. I feel like I've seen him recently, but I can't remember where."
Fu Xuan stroked his chin and answered directly.
Li Quan glanced at it again; he had an excellent memory and immediately recognized the person.
"Oh, isn't he the guy who appeared in a photo with Young Master Zhou a couple of days ago?"
I first saw that photo with Fu Xuan.
At the time, I wondered who this person was, chatting and laughing with Zhou Ran.
You should know that Zhou Ran is particularly difficult to get along with, and she is not one to be honest with others.
He initially thought this person had some kind of brilliance.
They even had someone check her information, and it turned out she was just a pretty face among minor celebrities.
I wonder what Zhou Ran is plotting now. Author's note: Thank you to my mentor 9492239 (9492239) for your support! For more exciting content, please leave a message for this book on Liancheng Reading.
