He could also tell that Wen Huaiyan wasn't attracted to Fu Zhiqing at all.
Upon hearing this, Wen Huaiyan was slightly taken aback, a fleeting look of disbelief quickly crossing his cold face.
However, in the blink of an eye, he returned to his usual calm and said indifferently, "No need."
Since Li Ruo can date other men, why can't he announce his engagement to someone else?
Anyway, he wasn't the one who broke the contract rules first...
Since that woman has no intention of coming back, there's no point in him persisting any longer.
Upon hearing this answer, the assistant was startled, and instinctively reminded her, "But if Miss Li finds out about this, she..."
However, before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Wen Huaiyan's icy voice: "I said, send it out."
The assistant wanted to try to persuade him further, but seeing the cold and serious look in his boss's eyes, he didn't dare to make any more moves and could only nod: "Yes."
...
Because the old man had given the order personally, the major media outlets naturally dared not neglect it.
Soon, the incident made headlines, and together with the hashtag "Li Ruo assaulted someone," it topped the charts.
Li Ruo was completely unaware of this.
There was a meeting scheduled for today, so she was busy organizing the documents she would need later.
Sure enough, a short while later, Xiao He knocked on the door and came in.
"Mr. Li, your client has arrived. Please come to the conference room."
"I see."
Upon hearing this, Li Ruo nodded in agreement, tidied up the documents in her hand, and rushed over without stopping.
In the past few days, the cooperation between the Li family and the Bai family has been officially put on the agenda.
Because they were working on large projects, Li's workload was naturally much greater than before, and his tasks were also heavier.
This is a crucial stage concerning the company's future development, so Li Ruo dared not be negligent and had no time to look at her phone.
She didn't care about this matter, but on the other hand, Li Zhiqi, who had seen the news early on, couldn't help but feel a little upset.
It should be noted that Li Zhiqi had been active on various platforms, deliberately creating the image of himself as a victim and inciting people to cyberbully Li Ruo.
In this way, as long as Li Ruo's reputation is ruined, he might be able to take the opportunity to regain control of the company.
However, things haven't developed to the point where they could threaten Li Ruo's position.
Then another bombshell news story appeared before his eyes.
"The Wen family heir and the Fu family's daughter are getting married soon. It's a perfect match, a marriage between two powerful people, and the envy of everyone!"
Below the large title was a photo of Wen Huaiyan and Fu Zhiqing having a meal together.
Looking at the photo of the beautiful woman gazing affectionately at Wen Huaiyan, Li Zhiqi's expression changed slightly, and a sinister glint flashed in his eyes.
No...no!
If that bitch Fu Zhiqing really gets together with Wen Huaiyan...
Wouldn't that mean he lost another source of support?
Thinking of this, Li Zhiqi's face instantly darkened, and he immediately sent a text message to Fu Zhiqing.
"The situation has changed, and we need to meet to discuss it in detail!"
Immediately afterwards, he sent over an address that he had found out beforehand that was perfect for the conversation.
At this moment, Fu Zhiqing was staring at the news on the computer screen with great satisfaction, her delicate face full of smiles.
"It's like searching high and low without finding it, only to have it come to me effortlessly. I never expected to get what I wanted so easily."
However, just as she was basking in her joy, her phone on the table suddenly vibrated at an inopportune moment.
Thinking there was some good news, Fu Zhiqing hurriedly picked it up to check.
But the next moment, the three characters "Li Zhiqi" suddenly appeared before my eyes.
Normally, Fu Zhiqing would have ignored it, but upon reading the text message, her heart skipped a beat, and her expression instantly froze.
The situation has changed... What does that mean?
Fearing that Li Zhiqi might suddenly withdraw from the cooperation, thus affecting her future plans, Fu Zhiqing didn't have time to think much and hurriedly drove over to the address in the text message.
...
The place where Li Zhiqi arranged to meet her was an open-air teahouse, a relatively secluded location.
As soon as Fu Zhiqing entered the room, she saw the man with a gloomy face, and a sense of foreboding arose in her heart.
She took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing her worry, and then whispered, "What's wrong?"
After all, Li Ruo's matter has caused quite a stir, and their plan has made great progress. They should be happy, so why are they looking so gloomy?
Does he really want to withdraw from the partnership, or is he trying to use this opportunity to make some unreasonable demands?
Thinking of this, Fu Zhiqing couldn't help but raise an eyebrow and tentatively asked, "You're not feeling good because you used to hitting Li Ruo before, but now she's hitting you back, are you?"
Having spent some time with Li Zhiqi, she had come to understand this man quite well; he was extremely petty and vindictive.
Now that he has been reprimanded by Li Ruo in public, he probably won't let it go easily.
However, Li Zhiqi did not answer, but stared straight at her, as if he was suppressing something.
Seeing that he didn't react for a long time, Fu Zhiqing thought he was really angry. She first scoffed impatiently in her heart, and then comforted him in a low voice: "If it's really because of this, it's not a big deal."
