"What do you know? His abilities go far beyond what he's shown..."
Perhaps because Liu Meiling had completed an important task for him, Yi Qilin trusted her more and more and revealed some of the things Chu Lin had done in private to him.
Upon hearing this, Liu Meiling's pupils contracted sharply, and her heart began to pound uncontrollably.
She even felt a chill creeping down her back.
Yi Qilin, however, remained as nonchalant as ever, saying, "He may not have the same power as the Fu family, but this man is ruthless and insane! He's capable of anything to achieve his goals!"
With a partner like this, are you still worried about not having a good future?
A strong sense of unease welled up in Liu Meiling's heart.
Would such a ruthless person genuinely cooperate with Yi Qilin?
She couldn't help but advise, "Qilin, you must not let him take advantage of you."
Yi Qilin chuckled and stepped forward to put his arm around her shoulder. "Good girl, I know you're doing this for my own good. Don't worry, I know what I'm doing! I have so much leverage over him, he won't abandon me if he doesn't want to go down in flames."
I have to say, it feels really good to see a woman wholeheartedly thinking about you!
Although he was only using Liu Meiling, he didn't mind playing the lovers' game with her a little longer, considering how loyal she was to him.
This can be considered as fulfilling her love.
Liu Meiling's expression was not optimistic; she didn't know where Yi Qilin's confidence came from.
Just because you have something on someone doesn't mean they can't do anything to you.
This Chu Lin is so ruthless, if he were pushed to the limit, wouldn't he have thought of killing someone to silence them?
At that time, will Yi Qilin still have a chance to survive?
Seeing the man's confident expression, Liu Meiling couldn't help but call out worriedly, "Qilin..."
"Alright, do you still have any doubts about what I said?" Yi Qilin didn't like talkative women either; they only annoyed him.
Liu Meiling felt a chill in her heart and fell silent for a moment.
Yi Qilin then remembered that she had just completed an important task and he shouldn't be too harsh on her.
Thinking of this, he softened his tone and said gently, "Alright, darling, you've done a great service this time. When I submit the documents to Chu Lin and retire successfully, I will grant your wish."
Liu Meiling involuntarily tilted her head back, her eyes filled with the last glimmer of hope, "You're willing to marry me?"
Yi Qilin told a lie without batting an eye: "Of course I want to marry you, but as I mentioned before, my father has a very strong sense of social class. I hope our relationship can be blessed by him, so don't worry, I will try my best to persuade him. Once I get his approval, I will definitely marry you in a grand ceremony."
Liu Meiling's expression darkened, and her once vibrant heart gradually fell silent.
She suddenly felt ridiculous that she was still not giving up.
What father's blessing? Even he himself can't convince himself with that excuse!
When he held power, he didn't respect anyone.
If he truly wants to marry her, who can stop him?
"Alright, stop giving me that look. Do you think I would lie to you?" Yi Qilin said somewhat displeased. "Smile."
Liu Meiling pursed her lips, tilted her head back, and smiled slightly, saying, "I believe you won't lie to me, so I'll wait for your good news."
Stupid woman!
Yi Qilin cursed inwardly, but didn't show it on his face. Instead, he pulled her into his arms, revealing a rare moment of tenderness.
...
The next day, Yi Qilin went to see Chu Lin and handed over the secret he had in his hands.
Sure enough, upon seeing the information above, Chu Lin's eyes gleamed with barely concealed excitement. "I never imagined that the renowned Fu family would have so many scourges under their wing. It's truly a stroke of luck!"
Yi Qilin followed up, saying, "Yes, even if Fu Yunchen is capable, can he control so many people under him? He won the bid for the project, but in the end, it was still ruined by him."
Upon hearing this, Chu Lin's face turned cold, and he said with a sinister expression, "What? You seem to really acknowledge Fu Yunchen's abilities. Do you think he's better than me?"
Yi Qilin thought to himself, "Do you even need to ask this? Don't you have any self-awareness?"
Of course, on the surface he still had to put on a fawning act, "How could that be? How could he possibly outsmart you! With this, you can bring Fu Yunchen down from his pedestal, and then the entire business world will be yours."
He was completely unaware that he now resembled a chief eunuch serving the emperor in an ancient palace.
They were extremely obsequious, always saying only what their master liked.
“You’re right.” A wanton and arrogant smile unconsciously appeared on Chu Lin’s face.
However, he didn't get too carried away. Although he had obtained the secret, he still needed to verify it.
After all, Yi Qilin wasn't exactly trustworthy in his eyes.
Over the next two days, he consulted his capable assistant to confirm that the items in his possession were genuine and that the seal belonged only to Fu Yunchen. Only then was he completely relieved.
Then came a burst of ecstasy—
"Help me contact all the major news media immediately. I want to expose them myself and crush Fu Yunchen under my feet."
"Yes, Mr. Chu!"
...
That afternoon, a news story made it to the front page at lightning speed—
The Fu Group's engineering fraud has resulted in an employee being paralyzed for life!
According to President Chu's exclusive revelation, the renovation project that Fu's Group won the bid for some time ago was found to have substandard materials.
In order to complete the project in the shortest amount of money and time, Fu disregarded the safety of the people. During the day and night rush to complete the project, construction worker Jiang accidentally fell from a high-rise building on the construction site, resulting in permanent paralysis.
Fu, abusing his power, tried to silence Jiang with a large sum of compensation, but Jiang refused to give in. Not wanting to betray his conscience, he told the media the truth.
The reason given by Fu for shortening the funding was actually to receive kickbacks.
This news caused a huge uproar online as soon as it broke.
"No way? That's the Fu family, which is at the top. Would they really do something so low-class?"
"Master Jiang is already paralyzed for life, who would joke around with their own health!"
"It's so dark and disgusting. The bigger the corporation, the more dirty secrets it has, it's just that they haven't been exposed yet."
"The Fu family, a century-old family business! I've always had a good impression of their CEO, Mr. Fu, after all, he's a top-tier handsome man!"
"What good is it if you're handsome but have a black heart? Don't let your values be dictated by your looks!"
"It was actually President Chu who leaked the information! According to inside sources, Luofeile has been locked in a power struggle with the Fu family recently! They were fighting tooth and nail for this renovation project, and now, the Fu family has completely backfired!"
