To be honest, at first, Sun Lifang felt that Wang Ran had no reason to "meddle."
But now, if it were me, knowing that someone was being wronged or used—
Pretend you don't know.
Wouldn't that make the people behind the scenes even more pleased?
Sun Lifang didn't want the other party to be smug, that was one reason.
The person behind the scenes even schemed to get himself involved as a scapegoat; this is intolerable, that's the second point.
The third point is that they dragged the "innocent" wives of executives into the mess as bargaining chips.
Finally, there's the company's prestige.
When it comes to emotional entanglements, even men in the business world will definitely treat it as a "love triangle" and let it go quickly.
Perhaps even the confused woman herself didn't realize that she had been tricked.
When I returned to Haicheng, I handed myself in at the police station and was charged with intentional assault.
Confused Sister's life is over.
Therefore, both emotionally and logically, putting aside her own situation, Sun Lifang could not allow the people behind the scenes to scheme against the entire company and still come out on top.
This is practically rubbing the intelligence of elite men in the dirt.
Thinking of this, Sun Lifang wanted to find Zhou Yunshi as soon as possible and tell him, "You've been tricked."
But Zhou Yunshi was gone for several hours.
Being a guarantor is not as simple as just taking money.
They were unfamiliar with the area, and the guarantor needed a local residence permit. Wang Ran said, "The business partner over there stepped forward to vouch for Chen Guiyi."
Chen Guiyi still harbors some rural, small-town tyranny. His one-sided beating of the woman in the hotel was, according to the surveillance footage, an act of aggression.
People carry glass as a form of "self-defense."
One-sided testimonies are insufficient as evidence.
The man was stronger than the woman, so the two cases should be investigated separately.
The victim was beaten unconscious, and Chen Guiyi could only stay in the detention center until a statement was taken and a detailed investigation was conducted.
That's quite fair, and Sun Lifang agrees.
That disgusting man should be locked up properly.
As a result of this delay, their flights back to Shanghai had to be postponed and rescheduled.
The entire company management team has to pay the price for Chen Guiyi's actions.
From any perspective—
The root of all the trouble was Chen Guiyi.
To put it simply, if he didn't take action, Zhou Yunshi wouldn't have had to postpone his schedule and cause trouble for his business partners by going to the police station to bail them out.
To put it bluntly, if he could control his lustful desires, he wouldn't have had problems at home.
One bad apple spoils the whole bunch.
“How could someone so brainless become a manager?” Sun Lifang exclaimed.
She knew the answer, of course—
Zhou Yunshi started from scratch, so he must have had the help of his friends in the underworld.
In a society based on personal connections, how many people are truly educated?
People only know etiquette when they are well-fed; they only talk about manners when their stomachs are full.
Chen Guiyi is someone whose material conditions have improved, but whose moral character hasn't kept up.
He thinks hitting women is powerful.
So even if he usually acts very "kind," this kind of provocation—
The essence of things is revealed.
Now Sun Lifang and Wang Ran can only look at Hutujie through the glass window from the outside; they can't go in.
There was a female security guard at the entrance.
Unable to come up with anything interesting, Sun Lifang decided to go back to the rest room first.
Wait for Zhou Yunshi to return.
Wang Ran asked the caregiver to bring in lunch, saying, "Eat something before you sleep."
Sun Lifang couldn't eat anymore.
My chest feels tight.
But for the sake of the baby in her belly, she still stuffed something in.
The food went down my throat like frosted paper.
I was restless and unable to eat or sleep; my feelings were complicated.
Putting aside the muddle-headed sister, how incredibly lucky I am!
If she hadn't impulsively gone shopping today, that knife would have surely fallen on her.
Will she still lay a hand on children?
Will Zhou Xinya also be slashed?
Just this assumption is enough to make a mother's heart bleed.
Sun Lifang clenched her fists to calm herself down.
She dared not think about the intentions of the person behind the scenes, but she would not let them off the hook either.
"That 'stab' is what I'm returning to you."
In the empty lounge, the woman spoke quietly.
Perhaps due to excessive tension, what was supposed to be a nap was actually a state of being half-asleep and half-awake.
So much so that she opened her eyes abruptly when the door lock clicked.
My mind was still blank.
People are seen through a fog, and reactions are slow.
"Haven't you eaten?" The man, dressed in a pure black suit with his tie perfectly tied, walked towards her step by step.
This is his composure—
At any time, the boss's image represents the company's image.
He stood there, upholding the company's prestige.
"Hmm." She clearly had so much to say, but when they actually met, she couldn't utter a single word.
The man sat on the edge of the bed, took the woman's hand and placed it in his palm. "Want to get up and eat something now? Hmm?"
Sun Lifang closed her eyes, and suddenly felt very sleepy again.
She was too nervous to sleep, but the man's arrival gave her a great sense of security.
All she wants to do right now is sleep.
"I'm so sleepy, but—"
Even though her head was throbbing with pain, she still wanted to explain things clearly about Sister Hutu.
But the man's next action left her speechless.
Zhou Yunshi got into bed, put his arm around her neck, and pressed his body against hers.
"Go to sleep."
Sun Lifang: "......"
Wasn't it said that he was a germaphobe?
Brother, you're the kind of person who always asks me to pack clean sheets for you when you go on business trips.
He won't even take off his coat before getting into bed with me?
