As darkness fell, Qiao Lina drove back to her residence.
She took off her coat and leaned back on the sofa.
She spent the whole day alone with Ye Chen today, and every little thing made her very happy.
A look of happiness appeared on Jolina's face.
"It would have been perfect if that kind of thing hadn't happened later."
Qiao Lina sighed softly, a hint of embarrassment appearing on her delicate face.
"I actually peed in front of Ye Chen, how embarrassing!"
Qiao Lina blushed deeply at the thought of that scene.
But after the initial embarrassment, Qiao Lina felt a strange sense of excitement.
This strange and stimulating feeling is truly indescribable.
Just then, Qiao Lina's phone rang.
She picked it up and looked at it; her expression was somewhat grave. The caller ID showed Zhao Dagang.
She had already been fired by Zhao Dagang today, but he called her at that moment.
After thinking for a moment, Qiao Lina pressed the answer button.
"Chairman Zhao, what's the matter with you calling me?" Qiao Lina said coldly.
"Lina, I want to have a serious talk with you."
"I'm no longer an employee of Mingsheng Company, so there's nothing to talk about."
Qiao Lina gave a cold laugh, her voice completely flat.
"Chairman Zhao, if there's nothing else, I'll hang up now."
"No, no, no, Lina, listen to me," Zhao Dagang said urgently.
"I know what happened today really hurt you, but there's nothing I can do about it."
"Shen Zhiwei's background is something I can't afford to offend."
"The reason I fired you and made you leave was to protect you."
"Lina, let's meet and clear up the misunderstanding."
Qiao Lina's cold expression softened somewhat, though she seemed to be lost in thought.
"Lina, I sincerely apologize to you."
“Okay,” Jolina said.
Ten minutes later, Qiao Lina drove to her destination, and Zhao Dagang said he wanted to have a serious talk with her.
Half an hour later, Qiao Lina walked into a teahouse.
"Lina, you're here! Please have a seat." Zhao Dagang immediately greeted her warmly.
Zhao Dagang poured Qiao Lina a cup of tea.
"Lina, I'm really sorry about what happened today, but I had no choice."
"Shen Zhiwei is backed by the Shen family of Jingzhou. He's no ordinary person."
Qiao Lina's expression changed, and she was greatly surprised.
"The Shen family is a powerful and influential family in Jingzhou. I simply cannot afford to offend them."
"I had no choice but to resort to this tactic to protect you."
“I reprimanded you, fired you, and made you leave; all of this was done to show Shen Zhiwei.”
Zhao Dagang said to Qiao Lina.
"Once things have calmed down, I will bring you back to the company to take on an important position."
"Your subsequent return did disrupt my plans."
“Shen Zhiwei was very angry after you left.”
"He vowed to take revenge on you, especially on the man who attacked you."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Lina's expression immediately turned serious, and she felt somewhat anxious.
The Shen family of Jingzhou—this is definitely not something a woman like her can resist.
The most powerful person Qiao Lina has come into contact with so far is Hong Sihai.
The Shen family is a level she can't even begin to reach.
Hong Sihai was no match for the Shen family, and Qiao Lina then realized the seriousness of the situation.
She was worried about Ye Chen's safety.
Qiao Lina was worried that the Shen family would retaliate against Ye Chen, which would put Ye Chen in great danger.
Qiao Lina somewhat regretted asking Ye Chen to stand up for her.
Zhao Dagang kept observing the reaction on Qiao Lina's face.
Zhao Dagang sneered inwardly, seemingly having Qiao Lina firmly under his control.
"Lina, the Shen family is extremely powerful."
"If they retaliate, the consequences will be very serious," Zhao Dagang said with a heavy expression.
"Chairman Zhao, is there any good solution?" Qiao Lina asked anxiously.
"I can't let Ye Chen get into danger."
Zhao Dagang was delighted to hear Qiao Lina say that.
He knew the other party was getting impatient and would be led by the nose from now on.
"This is not a good situation, after all, the other party is the Shen family."
Zhao Dagang pretended to be embarrassed and said, while observing Qiao Lina with his eyes.
"Chairman Zhao, is there really no other way?" Qiao Lina asked anxiously.
"Lina, don't worry, let me think of a way," Zhao Dagang said, feigning concern.
"Lina, I've thought of someone."
"As long as he takes action, this matter can definitely be resolved."
"How about this, I'll call him first, and then we'll see how to handle this matter."
Zhao Dagang said, feigning seriousness.
A few minutes later, Zhao Dagang sat back down in his seat.
"Lina, I just explained the situation to him, and he's willing to resolve this matter."
"That's great, thank you Chairman Zhao," Qiao Lina said.
"Lina, you're too kind. I can't just stand by and watch you get hurt."
"Come with me to see him in a bit, and then we'll see how to resolve this."
Zhao Dagang said to Qiao Lina.
“Okay,” Qiao Lina nodded in response.
Seeing that Qiao Lina had taken the bait, Zhao Dagang suggested that he go and meet her.
At that moment, Jolina only wanted to resolve the issue as quickly as possible, so she had no doubts.
Seeing this, Zhao Dagang sneered inwardly.
Half an hour later, Qiao Lina and Zhao Dagang entered a luxury hotel.
A few minutes later, the two entered a luxurious private room.
"Lina, have a seat for a bit, I need to make a phone call," Zhao Dagang said.
“Okay,” Qiao Lina nodded and said.
