The Song family's bedroom.
"Song Nuan, something's wrong with you."
Xu Yiran's voice came from the screen, and Song Nuan suddenly came to her senses. She saw Xu Yiran leaning close to the camera and staring at her in a strange and peculiar posture.
Even through the screen, Xu Yiran's gaze was sharp.
"Tell me, did something happen?"
Song Nuan felt guilty and looked away, saying, "It's nothing, don't make wild guesses."
Xu Yiran snorted coldly, clearly not believing it, "You were distracted several times last night. You used to be more focused than anyone else when talking about work, but today you were obviously absent-minded."
She pursed her lips and remained silent.
"Did you two argue again?"
"no."
"Why is that? Is Zhong Qingya causing you trouble? Or did Ouyang Zhoujing confess his feelings to you?"
Song Nuan decisively switched the video to call mode and changed the subject, "Fang Yu, keep an eye on Qin's old customers recently. If they can get rid of the defective products at a reasonable price, then sign the contract."
Xu Yiran's lips were parted.
Before she could speak, she was suddenly pushed aside, and the person on the screen changed to Fang Yu. "Want to continue our cooperation?"
Song Nuan hummed in agreement.
Fang Yu was confused as to why she suddenly changed her mind. "You know perfectly well that this is a trap set by Zhong Qingya, why..."
“I’ve spoken to Zhong Guan, and he’ll handle it.”
Taking advantage of her meeting with Zhong Guan at the Li family's residence, Song Nuan brought up the matter.
Zhong Guan agreed to resolve the issue.
Of course, she also agreed to Zhong Guan's conditions.
Fang Yu still found it strange, but she trusted Song Nuan. Since Song Nuan had spoken, she would just do as she was told.
"Keep a close eye on it. If you find any hidden dangers in the project, deal with them as you see fit. You can decide how to handle it."
Fang Yu nodded, "Okay."
She remembered something and was about to ask Song Nuan when the screen went black.
Song Nuan sent a message: 'The Wi-Fi is bad, it's down. Contact me again if you have any problems.'
Xu Yiran angrily punched the pillow twice and muttered, "Of all times, the Wi-Fi is bad. I haven't even asked her yet. She must be hiding something from us."
Fang Yu glanced at her, shook her head, picked up her computer, and went back to her room.
...
Police station.
Director Wu's already small office was now completely devoid of space.
After pouring tea for Zhong Guan, he poured tea for Li Jingchen. He poured tea several times throughout the night, letting it go from hot to cold, and then had to keep adding fresh tea.
Li Jingchen raised his hand to look at his watch.
It's getting late.
"Mr. Zhong, both of our time is precious. Every minute that is wasted is a loss."
Director Wu swallowed hard, cautiously raising his eyes to glance at this young but formidable figure.
His tone was indifferent, his demeanor calm and unhurried, his eyelids half-closed, not looking directly at anyone present. He didn't seem threatened, but rather like someone who had come to demand an explanation from Zhong Guan.
Unfortunately, the opponent was none other than Zhong Guan, a hidden but sharp blade in Kyoto's business world.
When it comes to matters of principle, Zhong Guan's patience is no less than Li Jingchen's.
Since Li Jingchen arrived, Zhong Guan has not said a word, and the entire process has been handled by a temporarily hired lawyer.
The lawyer didn't know much about the real situation and didn't dare to speak recklessly. His answers were all repetitive and he couldn't get any useful information from Li Jingchen.
"Mr. Zhong, this is not very meaningful."
Li Jingchen chuckled lazily, "You've kidnapped him. What, are you really planning to apply for an inter-provincial investigation?"
Zhong Guanwei remained unmoved.
Li Jingchen's patience was almost exhausted.
He suppressed his smile, stood up, and smoothed the faint creases on his suit. "In that case, I look forward to meeting President Zhong in court someday."
He raised an eyebrow slightly. "Thank you."
Zhong Guan finally couldn't help but ask, "Thank you? Thank you for what?"
Li Jingchen found it amusing. He lowered his eyes, looked down at him, and parted his thin lips slightly, with a hint of provocation, "President Zhong is reluctant to part with his only daughter. With the wedding date approaching, he has called it off and is taking his daughter back to the capital."
Zhong Guan's expression changed slightly.
"Mr. Zhong went to great lengths to solve a big problem for me, so of course I have to thank you."
Lin Xuan's lips twitched slightly as he desperately suppressed a smile.
He's really something.
A few words turned the tide.
"Li Jingchen, I really underestimated you." Zhong Guan laughed out of anger. "You don't need to say these things to provoke me. If you want to settle this matter, you should just marry Qingya."
"Can."
Lin Xuan turned to look at him in surprise.
Is this really the same CEO Li who agreed so readily?
Zhong Guan also became somewhat suspicious of Li Jingchen's sudden change in attitude. "I said it's not about having a wedding banquet, it's about getting a marriage certificate."
Upon hearing this, Li Jingchen narrowed his eyes slightly.
If he could resolve the situation and stage a fake wedding to deceive Zhong Guan, he could do it.
But if it's about getting a marriage certificate...
That's another story.
"Furthermore, I want you to transfer all the shares of Berlin Jewelry under the Li Group to Qingya."
Li Jingchen curled his lips into a cool smile.
That's a brilliant idea.
We want both.
Lin Xuan lowered his voice and reminded her, "President Zhong, once the surveillance footage is repaired, we will have enough evidence to prove that Miss Zhong's injuries were self-inflicted and not due to our abuse."
"By then, you won't be able to sue President Li for abuse."
"Now that President Li is willing to negotiate with you, President Zhong, please cherish this opportunity and do not make any unreasonable demands."
Zhong Guan found this statement very interesting.
With a wave of his hand, the lawyer beside him explained, "Assistant Lin, the evidence of abuse goes beyond just the physical injuries on Ms. Zhong's body. We have already taken her to the hospital, where she was diagnosed with a mild mental illness, which is also evidence."
Lin Xuan frowned.
Then, she subconsciously looked at Li Jingchen.
The man spoke calmly, "The shares of Berlin Jewelry have already been given to someone else. I can't meet Mr. Zhong's demands. If you want to sue me, go ahead. I'm ready to fight you anytime."
Zhong Guan jumped to his feet and demanded angrily, "Who did you give it to?"
Lin Xuan was completely dumbfounded.
How come he didn't know that Berlin Jewelry's shares had been given away?
The next second, the tall man in front of her said calmly, "Song Nuan".
Zhong Guan didn't believe it. "I just checked the information a few days ago. You are still the largest shareholder of Berlin Jewelry, Li Jingchen. The information is open and transparent now. You can't lie to me."
Li Jingchen narrowed his long eyes.
There are not many domestic jewelry brands that have reached the top tier of luxury goods, and only Berlin Jewelry can compete with major international brands that have been around for centuries.
Although Berlin Jewelry is not a core project of the Li family, it holds a very high status.
It is at least the number one jewelry brand in China.
It's not surprising that Zhong Guan is envious.
He thought Zhong Qingya was nothing, thinking she could snatch Berlin Jewelry from the Li family with such a trivial matter. He was simply delusional.
Li Jingchen smiled faintly, "Lin Xuan, go back and draft a contract to give the shares of Berlin to Song Nuan."
"you--"
Zhong Guan was furious. "Fine, you surnamed Li, you'll regret this!"
regret?
Li Jingchen glanced at Zhong Guan with amusement. His only regret was that he had shown mercy and hadn't driven Zhong Qingya completely insane, only leaving her with a mild mental illness that could be cured.
He turned and left.
Seeing this, Director Wu's legs trembled uncontrollably with unease.
We absolutely cannot let Li Jingchen leave like this.
If Zhong Guanzhen applies for an inter-provincial investigation, he will be the one who suffers.
