Fang Qishan and his wife seemed to have a good impression of Wang Gang. Ignoring her rough voice, Wang Gang was actually quite cute. According to Wang Gang, she was like that because of a problem she had when she was a child.
Whether it was true or false, no one pressed for details. However, they all genuinely felt the affection that Fang Qishan and his wife had for Wang Gang.
This is also a deviation in the main plot; Wang Gang does not appear in the book "The Return of the Dragon King".
Perhaps she's just a minor character, not worth the author's attention. She might only appear because of this unexpected event at the social gathering, and then she'll be out of the picture.
With that in mind, Luo Chen stopped thinking about it.
After the social gathering ended, Fang Qishan left with his wife. Cai Jingyi, afraid of his sister, also hurriedly left. Mu Xiaoxiao originally wanted to leave with Xu Fei, but unexpectedly, Ye Lin took the initiative to find Xu Fei, seemingly wanting to talk about something.
Mu Xiaoxiao stomped her foot angrily, and Wang Gang used this as an excuse to leave with her.
As for Luo Chen, he disliked Cai Jingya's teasing and left alone by taxi.
Only Han Zhiqing and Cai Jingya remained. The two found a coffee shop and ordered lattes and Americanos.
...
Method Group.
As company employees gradually left work, only the lights remained on in the president's office on the 32nd floor.
Back then, under Fang Wu's leadership, although the Fang Group had a reputation in Ningcheng and was one of the business leaders, it still couldn't compare to Fang Xue's effective strategies now.
The four major families of Ningcheng often clashed. Although they seemed to be of equal status, they also competed with each other for the top three positions. They were originally at the bottom of the four families, and it was not because Fangwu was incompetent in his leadership that they were left with nothing to share. The remaining grains of rice were of no use.
Since Fang Xue took over the group, it has flourished despite its lack of progress. Although she is cold, she is very serious about her work and has her own persistence.
The Fang family's current ranking as the second of the four major families in Ningcheng is largely due to her efforts. To outsiders, it seems that her achievements are only possible because of the help of Luo Chen, the young master of the Luo family.
She did not deny this point. Everyone in the four major families understood that the Luo family was only one title away from surpassing the other three families, and its strength was already far beyond that of the other three families.
It is common knowledge that Luo Chen likes Fang Xue, and as a result, Fang Xue is involved in many of the Luo family's money-making projects.
The same piece of meat, without any distinction between meat broth and broth, shows how good Luo Chen is to Fang Xue. Everyone has witnessed it, and Fang Xue has not denied it. The success of the Fang Group is indeed inseparable from Luo Chen's help.
However, this is not what Fang Xue wants. She is very strong-willed and does not want to rely on others to achieve her honor. She prefers to rely on herself.
Unfortunately, reality is cruel. No matter how beautiful the dream, it will eventually be shattered. There will always be temptations that can lead us to forget our original intentions.
The Xicheng District project has a very promising future. It is located in Ningcheng's largest economic zone, and the potential profits are unimaginable. As a joint venture partner, Fang's Group will also reap significant benefits.
This is a tempting cake, one that's hard to resist taking a bite of. Otherwise, when Chen Jian from the Luo Group arrived and explained his purpose, Fang Wu wouldn't have been so eager for Fang Xue to agree.
It's simply because it's too hard to refuse.
They had their subordinates investigate, but found nothing wrong. Otherwise, even if Fang Xue had doubts and suspicions, she would have still agreed to give the Luo Group 30 billion yuan in compensation.
Having already collaborated extensively with the Luo family and with Luo Chen's deep affection for him, Fang Wu had absolutely no other ideas.
Although Fang Xue already knew that Luo Chen didn't really like her, because of the profits she had made from their previous collaboration, and the information she had obtained, Fang Xue hesitated but didn't express much opinion.
Now that the employees are leaving get off work one after another, she is still in the office, planning the future of the Fang family and using this project in the West District to help the Fang family take another step forward.
Be a little greedy, and transcend the Luo family.
Fang Xue knew that she was just living in a world in a book, and that some of her fates had already been arranged. However, she was very strong-willed and would never compromise or surrender.
She has a strong sense of self-respect and will not accept this arranged fate. Whether it is her marriage or the future of the Fang family, she wants to fight for it herself.
Instead of being predetermined and waiting for the outcome.
She pinched the bridge of her nose, exhausted after a long day. She closed the file; the blueprint was in place, all that was left was the actual implementation.
She glanced at her phone; the time on the screen was past dinnertime. She was used to it; although she occasionally had stomach aches, she could just bear it.
Stretching leisurely, her alluring curves were exposed to no one. Fang Xue stood up, left her chair, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and looked at the scenery outside. The city lights were everywhere, but she missed the evening glow.
The stars twinkled in the sky, and the moonlight shone down, each possessing its own beauty compared to the neon lights on the ground.
After watching for a while, Fang Xue picked up her coat, put it on, left the office, went to the garage, started her Passat Mera, and prepared to go home.
As Fang Xue passed through the exit, the security guard on night duty greeted her. Only then did she realize that Ye Lin hadn't come to work today, and hadn't even asked her for leave. Fang Xue didn't care what he was doing, but she disliked Ye Lin's attitude.
She disliked Ye Lin and wanted to distance herself from him. If Ye Lin hadn't saved her father that day, Fang Xue would never have let him go, given his work ethic.
Although the Minister of Security's job is easy, it's not like he's doing nothing. If Ye Lin takes advantage of the favor he did to save Fang Wu and doesn't respect the rules, then...
Even if Fang Xue had done Ye Lin a favor, she wouldn't be too presumptuous with him.
Thinking back to what he said to Ye Lin yesterday, it's hard not to make connections, and this is Ye Lin's dissatisfaction.
Fang Xue wouldn't consider Ye Lin's feelings. No matter how dissatisfied he was, she would do what she had to do.
Even after learning Ye Lin's true identity from Luo Chen—that he was the protagonist of this world and the Dragon King—Fang Xue remained fearless.
Especially after learning that she is the female lead, has too many entanglements with Ye Lin, and will later become Ye Lin's woman, Fang Xue's disgust for Ye Lin becomes even stronger.
Thinking of Ye Lin's wicked smile, Fang Xue, who hadn't eaten dinner, felt nauseous. Helpless, she tried to distract herself.
As a result, Luo Chen's image appeared in his mind: his tall and slender figure, his handsome, smiling, and affectionate appearance.
It inexplicably made her blush.
She had intended to distract herself, but unexpectedly, her attention shifted to Luo Chen, something she hadn't done before.
Back then, Luo Chen was pursuing her, but she wouldn't respond, much less think about Luo Chen.
Ever since I was able to hear Luo Chen's thoughts and realized that he was two-faced and didn't mean what he said, he would... appear out of nowhere.
Fang Xue assured that she didn't have any feelings for Luo Chen; it was just that Luo Chen was too infuriating. He acted so convincingly to follow the plot, fooling everyone. She knew that if she told him, no one would believe her.
This made her feel very wronged.
Besides, who would specifically choose flowers that are the last day before to send them, and these people are going too far each time, even trying to get them for free.
If she knew where Luo Chen bought the flowers, she would definitely make sure the shopkeeper wasn't deceived by Luo Chen.
That guy is a complete bastard.
The more Fang Xue thought about it, the angrier she became. She stepped on the gas and sped up, heading towards home.
