"What exactly do you want!" Su Yan felt a chill run down her spine. Someone had been watching her everything all along, and even knew that she had someone tamper with Lin Yi'an's car.
“Miss Su, there’s no need to be so nervous. As I’ve said before, we share the same goal. As long as we cooperate well, we can both achieve what we want,” Li Rui coaxed patiently.
"Why should I cooperate with you? I can do it myself!" Su Yan didn't naively believe that Li Rui was really that simple. She thought it best to stay away from such a ruthless person.
“You are the daughter of media tycoon Su Chengwen, so I naturally believe you have the ability, but we can achieve twice the result with half the effort by joining forces.” Li Rui narrowed his eyes slightly. “Besides, you don’t want people to know that Lin Yi’an’s car has been tampered with, do you?”
"Are you threatening me?" Su Yan's face turned pale, and she bit her lip while glaring at him.
"I just want to make friends with Miss Su. I'll give you a few days to think it over. Call me when you've made up your mind." Li Rui took out a business card and placed it in Su Yan's hand.
Su Yan gripped the business card tightly, not wanting to stay with him for even a second longer, and turned to leave.
"Miss Su, if you want that medicine, remember to come find me anytime," Li Rui said to her retreating figure.
Su Yan paused slightly, then hurriedly left.
Li Rui's eyes flashed coldly, and he smiled mockingly: "Just a counterfeit, ugly without even realizing it."
He turned around and went back to the car, leaning back in the back seat. "Drive."
"Second Master, Ah Biao, one of Master Feng's men, just called. He said Master Feng wants you to come back because there's been a problem with a shipment." The scarred man in the passenger seat said to Li Rui.
Li Rui nodded, tilted his head back and closed his eyes. He was not one to be subservient to others, and he was getting tired of being summoned at will. Sooner or later, he would take his place.
With no one holding him back, dealing with Xu Tingchuan will be much easier for him.
Now we just have to see when that foolish imposter will finally agree.
...
Ever since Shen Muzhi agreed to Xiang Zhilan's request that the wedding be held together with Ni Sitian, she has become much more proactive about it, talking to Ni Sitian on the phone every day about various matters.
Shen Muzhi watched Xiang Zhilan and the others discussing things so enthusiastically, as if it had nothing to do with him, the groom. So, after each discussion, he couldn't help but pick on some trivial points, hoping she would refute him.
Over time, the two started talking more, and the awkwardness gradually subsided.
However, she simply couldn't do what Xiao Yi said. Although she felt that women were no weaker than men, she had to admit that women were inherently weaker in this respect.
She felt that it was already very rare that she could get along so peacefully with Shen Muzhi.
By the end of April, Shen Muzhi no longer needed to sit in a wheelchair all the time. However, he still couldn't stand for long periods or walk around much, so he would take a half-hour walk in the garden every day.
It just so happens that Xiang Zhilan needs to take walks every day because of her pregnancy, so recently the two of them can often be seen strolling together in the villa, looking very harmonious.
That afternoon, the two were strolling slowly in the garden when a military vehicle drove into the villa.
Xiang Zhilan stopped and looked at the car. She saw a middle-aged man wearing a dark green military uniform and boots get out of the car.
