Chapter 849: Chapter 035: I’m following you
“What’s Wrong?”Lin feixing looked at Su Peizhen in front of her and found that she seemed to be a little absent-minded. “Is the food not to your taste?”
This restaurant was very stylish. It was their second date. Lin Feixing chose this place for dinner after a long time.
It was also close to Su Peizhen’s company and happened to be in the business circle in the city center. After dinner, they could watch a movie together.
Lin feixing had already thought about it, but halfway through the meal, she found Su Peizhen absent-minded.
Su Peizhen glanced at Lin Feixing and shook her head gently. “Sorry, I thought of something. The food is very good. It suits my taste. Thank you.”
She remembered that when she changed her clothes in the morning and was about to go out, Ling Jing was still standing in that position in the restaurant.
His head was lowered. She couldn’t see his expression clearly, but she could feel the low pressure coming from Ling Jing’s side.
She didn’t feel that she had done anything wrong. Ling Jing didn’t suffer a loss. After all, she had given him money.
Moreover, they had agreed from the beginning. She didn’t think that she had done anything wrong.
It was just that when she thought of the sadness on Ling Jing’s body and the trembling when he hugged her, Su Peizhen felt inexplicably uncomfortable.
When she met Lin Feixing’s eyes, she smiled.
“Thank you, I like it very much.”
Since she had decided, she should not hesitate. If she did not make a decision, she would be in trouble.
“Peizhen, after dinner, how about we go to the movies?”
After Lin Feixing said this, she smiled awkwardly. “Sorry, I don’t know what you like yet, so I can only say this first. If you have other arrangements, I can go with you to do what you like.”
“It’s okay, just watch the movie.”
Su Peizhen didn’t mind. She looked at Lin Feixing and smiled, then took out her phone to book tickets.
She lowered her eyes and focused on eating the food in front of her. Unexpectedly, Ling Jing’s face flashed in her mind again.
He said that he would take her to watch the movie and let her accompany him, but that guy fell asleep in the movie theater..
Su Peizhen tightened her grip on the chopsticks and closed her eyes. This was the last time she thought of Ling Jing.
A small hooligan and a gigolo was really not worth your effort.
..
The air pressure in the living room of the villa was extremely low.
Shen lefu, who was standing beside the coffee table, was so scared that she didn’t dare to speak. The bodyguards on both sides were silent in fear. Even Gu Xiu, who had always been close to Ling Jing, didn’t dare to make a sound.
Ling Jing’s fingers looked at the information in front of him. The information was very detailed. After all, he had asked Gu Xiu to find out everything.
And Gu Xiu really listened to him. The information in his hands couldn’t be more detailed.
That woman had broken up with him three days ago. Then she turned around and went on a date with Lin feixing, who looked more like a gigolo than him.
Feixing? Xingxing?
Hehe. That necklace was given to him by this Lin feixing. Did he like Xingxing?
Ling Jing’s Knuckles turned white as he held the information in his hand. A bloodthirsty look flashed in his eyes, but it soon disappeared.
He looked up at Gu Xiu with an unexpectedly calm expression.
“Check for me. Check all the people or companies that have a partnership with the real department store. I want to see them in three hours.”
“Yes.”Gu Xiu didn’t understand what kind of madness the young master was going through again. But the young master had ordered. As a subordinate, he could only follow orders.
It didn’t take three hours. It was such a simple thing. In two hours, Gu Xiu put a new investigation document in front of Ling Jing again.
They were the same. He was hugging Shen lefu. He was eating the grapes that she peeled and fed him.
Shen lefu was respectful and afraid of him, so she tried to please him carefully. There was some pleading in her eyes. “Young Master Ling, I can promise you anything. Can you let my brother go? My Brother’s body really can’t take it anymore. Really –”
“What?”Ling Jing raised her chin, his expression light and lewd. “You want me to let your brother go just by feeding me a few grapes?”
“Young… Young Master Ling?”
Ling Jing looked at Gu Xiu, who was standing at the side, and reached out to rub her chest. “It depends on how far you can go if you want me to let your brother go.”
Shen lefu bit her lip. She was no longer an ignorant little girl. Especially after coming here for the past few days, she had seen with her own eyes how Ling Jing treated traitors.
Her small face was pale and she looked delicate and pitiful. Ling Jing was not interested and pushed her away.
He stood up and looked at her with some pity. “If you want to get, you have to give. Think carefully before you say anything. Anyway, your brother won’t die for a while.”
His extremely cold-blooded tone made Shen Lefu’s face pale again.
Ling Jing was not interested in appreciating it. He stood up and took the information in Gu Xiu’s hands.
The department store that Xiang caiping left for Su Peizhen was originally called Qing Qing department store. Later, after Su Peizhen took over, Xiang caiping took the initiative to change the name to true department store.
Tsk. No matter which name it was, the name was so tacky.
He despised it in his heart. Thinking of the ruthlessness in Su Peizhen’s eyes that day, Ling Jing once again had the impulse to kill.
After calming down, he felt that this game could be played again.
He sorted out all the relationships and took one last look at Gu Xiu. Gu Xiu was a little scared by her look, and his body shrank back.
“Young Master?”
Ling Jing took out two documents in his hand and turned to Gu Xiu. “Buy these two companies.”
Gu Xiu glanced at such a small company. “Young Master Ling, is there a need?”
When he met Ling Jing’s murderous gaze, he took the documents from him. “Yes. I’ll do it right away.”
“I’ll settle this in three days. and –”
Ling Jing narrowed his eyes. He seemed to have thought of something, and a bloodthirsty glint flashed in his eyes.
“Buy me a house. One room, one living room, older and smaller. The price is less than two million.”
“Young Master Ling?”The house under his name was enough. What the hell was a one room, one living room? It was not even enough for the housekeeper to live in.
“Go quickly. I’ll give you a week to finish what I just told you.”
“Yes.”Gu Xiu would never question Ling Jing’s decision. He bowed and turned to leave.
Ling Jing threw the information in front of him to the side. His eyes were like a leopard waiting for an opportunity in the dark.
Woman. I spent so much time and so much money to play with you. You should really be touched and honored.
It was never too late to taste the fruit of victory, as long as that day came. And he was almost impatient.
… ..
Su Peizhen looked at the form in front of her and raised her eyebrows at manager Wang. Well, coincidentally, the company had a new purchasing manager. His surname was still Wang.
However, he was younger than the previous one. He was in his thirties and was quite capable. Sometimes, he was a little indecisive.
“What does this form mean?”
The two downstream companies that had been working together suddenly wanted to raise their prices. Business was not good at the moment. For these downstream companies, it was rare for them to suddenly raise their prices without any big changes.
These two companies were the ones that they had been working with more recently. Last month, they even helped to do a promotion together, and the response was good.
Who would have thought that they were going to raise their prices now? Based on this ratio, not only would their profits be lower, but it would also affect the perception of the customers.
“President Su, those two companies seem to have just changed owners. Then the other party said that the price adjustment is the new owner’s idea.”
Changed owners? Su Peizhen frowned slightly. After thinking for a moment, she knocked on the table and looked at Zhou Mei.
“Help me arrange an appointment with the person-in-charge of these two companies.”
“Yes.”Zhou Mei nodded and turned around to contact him. Su Peizhen did not take this matter to heart.
With a new boss, it was normal for the new boss to want to adjust the price since he did not know much about business. She asked the other party to see if they could talk about it. If they could talk about it, they could talk about it. If they could not talk about it, she did not mind changing to another company.
Business was difficult now. If they wanted to cooperate, the company had to agree. She did not like others threatening her.
..
Two days later, Su Peizhen met the person-in-charge of one of the companies in a private restaurant. The man looked to be in his forties. His figure was well-managed, but he had put on some weight and had a small belly.
He looked friendly when he smiled, but the look in his eyes was not the same.
Su Peizhen quickly deduced from the man’s appearance and the way he spoke, what kind of negotiation method she would use later.
The Man’s surname was Ying, and his name was Ying Tianlong. He introduced himself first.
He said that he was originally a nouveau riche, and that he didn’t know what he was doing after he made money from buying. Others said that there were risks involved in both real estate and the stock market, so he wanted to start a real estate business. He bought this company with the intention of making money, so raising the price was necessary.
The other party’s words didn’t have much technical content. His entire person revealed a feeling that although he was old-fashioned, he was rich. If he was rich, he would be willful.
Su Peizhen had never dealt with such a person in her previous circle. This was a rare experience for her.
The other party did not come alone. He brought along a female secretary. She said that she was a secretary, but her words were coquettish and flirtatious. Her body leaned on Ying Tianlong’s body as if she had no bones.
She looked at Zhou Mei beside her and felt lucky that Zhou Mei was not like this. Otherwise, she would have let Zhou Mei go home to eat her.
Zhou Mei seemed to know what she meant and smiled at her.
It could be seen that the person in front of her was relatively simple. Su Peizhen didn’t want to beat around the bush.
“President Ying, I understand that you just acquired the company and want to make money, but you have to be reasonable in everything. We have signed a contract before. If you suddenly change your mind like this, it can be considered a breach of contract.”
“What breach of contract? Don’t scare me. The person who signed the contract with You is the person from the previous company, not me. Besides, our contract expires in a month. It’s natural for me to raise the price.”
Su Peizhen lost her patience when she heard the other party’s repeated words.
“Alright, what you mean is that you insist on raising the price and you don’t intend to take back this idea, right?”
“That’s for sure.”Ying Tianlong’s phone rang when he spoke. The secretary stood up. “President Ying, I have to take a call.”
“Go, go. Come back soon.”Ying Tianlong touched the secretary’s waist in front of Su Peizhen.
Su Peizhen couldn’t take it anymore and turned her face away. The secretary twisted her waist and left. Not long after, Zhou Mei’s phone rang.
What was wrong with these people today? She glanced at Zhou Mei and picked up the phone awkwardly.
“I’m sorry, President Su.”
“It’s okay.”Su Peizhen didn’t like to be interrupted when she was talking about work. Zhou Mei stood up to answer the phone. Su Peizhen wanted to continue, but Zhou Mei rushed in again.
As she got closer to Su Peizhen, her voice trembled.
“President Su, my child suddenly fell. I, I need to go to the hospital now. I –”
Su Peizhen looked at the anxious look on her face and did not put herself in a difficult position. “Go.”
“But here –”
“It’s alright. The child is more important.”She was not an unreasonable person. Moreover, she had a premonition that this matter would not be discussed today. Therefore, she did not plan to stay any longer. After confirming Ying Tianlong’s thoughts, she was going to leave.
Zhou Mei looked at her gratefully and then left in a hurry.
Ying Tianlong’s secretary had not returned yet. Only the two of them were left in the private room.
Su Peizhen looked at the other party again, her expression still calm.
“President Ying, a straightforward person does not speak in riddles. I am a more direct person. I just want to ask, are you sure that there is no room for negotiation?”
“President Su, don’t be so serious.”. “There’s no room for negotiation.”Ying Tianlong glanced at Su Peizhen. “Since a beautiful lady like you came to discuss a business deal with me, of course I have to give you face.”. “How about this, you accompany me for a few drinks and I won’t raise the price. How about it?”
When Su Peizhen heard this, she didn’t want to talk anymore. “Since that’s the case, then there’s nothing to discuss.”
The two companies were working together as equals. She wasn’t an escort. Many years ago, Su Chenghui had taught her that one shouldn’t be arrogant, but one must have pride.
Talking about cooperation, if it could be done, if it couldn’t be done… She didn’t want to continue at all.
Who knew that when she wanted to leave, the other party held her hand and even pulled her into his embrace.
“President su is really beautiful. You even suppressed my secretary. In fact, you’re such a beautiful lady, why do you have to work so hard to talk about business?”
“What are you doing? Let Go.”Su Peizhen’s eyes turned cold.
Ying Tianlong fearlessly came over. “Don’t shout so loudly. Let me tell you, as long as you’re willing to follow me, don’t talk about lowering the price. I’ll give it to you for free.”
“President Ying, I’ll say it again. Let Go.”
Su Peizhen tried to push him away, but he was a man after all. His strength was not small. He hugged her tightly and refused to let go. His hands were still caressing her back.
“I’ve never played with a beauty like President Su. She has a personality, and I like her. President Su, just follow me.”
Seeing that he was about to kiss her, Su Peizhen raised her hand and swung it at his face without thinking.
Ying Tianlong was furious after receiving a slap from her. He hugged her tightly and refused to let go no matter what.
“B * Tch, you don’t want face even if I give it to you. Let me tell you. You’re lucky that I like you. Obediently obey me, or else –”
The other party’s size and strength were there. Su Peizhen struggled, but it was very difficult.
She kicked and kicked repeatedly, using the wolf-proofing technique that she had learned in the past. It was not so easy for the Ying person to succeed. She did not gain any advantage after taking a few hits, but she was also furious because of this.
He became even crazier. He directly pressed Su Peizhen onto a chair and reached out to tear her clothes.
The strength of a man and a woman showed a huge difference at this moment. When the other party reached out to the collar of her clothes, Su Peizhen finally could not restrain a trace of panic.
“B * Tch, I’ll teach you a good lesson right now. I’ll let you know how powerful I am.”
Su Peizhen reached out her hand to grab the phone in her pocket, but before she could get it, a few buttons on her shirt had already been ripped off by the other party.
“Help!”
Before she could get the phone, Su Peizhen screamed in despair. She hoped that someone outside the room could hear her cry for help.
The man’s hand had already touched her collarbone. Su Peizhen was so disgusted that she wanted to throw up.
In the next second, the gravity on her body disappeared. She did not even have the time to see everything clearly before she saw Ying Tianlong’s slightly plump body being violently lifted up by someone and then thrown out.
After the sound of landing on the ground and the sound of smashing onto the chair, there was the sound of fists continuously landing on Ying Tianlong’s body.
Fist after fist, Ying Tianlong was beaten until he let out a pig-like cry.
Su Peizhen was still in shock. Having escaped from danger, only now did she see clearly who was the one who attacked.
Ling Jing?
“Bastard, I told you to Touch My Woman.”
Ling Jing not only punched, but also kicked. After a few punches and kicks, Ying Tianlong’s face turned into a pig’s head. In the end, when Ying Tianlong dodged, he knocked into the corner of the table or the corner of the chair and fainted immediately.
However, Ling Jing felt that it was not enough. He raised his foot and wanted to beat him again. “Stop!”Su Peizhen called out to him.
“Enough.”She stood up and felt a chill in her chest. She lowered her head and tightened her shirt in the middle. She found that the button had fallen off. There was no way to fix it. She picked up the coat at the side and put it on instead, covering her chest.
She heard the footsteps outside and went forward to stop Ling Jing from beating him again.
“Stop beating her. If you continue beating her, people will die.”
Ling Jing glanced at her. When he saw her messy hair and clothes, a ruthless look appeared in his eyes again. He raised his foot and kicked Ying Tianlong a few more times.
At this time, Ying Tianlong’s secretary came in and saw the situation in front of him.
Su Peizhen held her forehead, but Ling Jing didn’t care. He went forward and put his arm around her waist, bringing her outside.
The secretary was so scared that her face turned pale. She didn’t stop them and just watched them leave.
..
When Su Peizhen got into Ling Jing’s Cadillac, her rationality had returned, and she calmed down.
She tightened her coat and glanced at Ling Jing. The Panic of almost being violated had finally dissipated, and another question flooded her mind.
“Why are you here?”
She was very calm. She did not lose her usual rational analysis because Ling Jing had saved her.
Ling Jing did not answer her question. Instead, he came closer and held her shoulders with both hands.
“Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere? Did that Beast Hurt You?”
Su Peizhen was stunned for a moment. When she met the pure concern in Ling Jing’s eyes, she spoke again.
“I’m fine. You Didn’t say that you weren’t mesmerized. Why are you here?”
Ling Jing’s expression was a little embarrassed, a little awkward, and a little uncomfortable. He withdrew his hand, as if he didn’t know how to answer this question.
Su Peizhen looked at him and suddenly realized something. It had been a month since she unilaterally announced the end of the relationship between the two of them.
It wasn’t that she hadn’t thought of Ling Jing during this month, but she had suppressed her thoughts. In order to avoid meeting Ling Jing, she hadn’t even returned to Rong Yuan once during this month.
Now that she saw Ling Jing again, she realized that Ling Jing had appeared immediately after her accident. What did this mean?
“You –”
“Yes. I followed you.”Ling Jing admitted what he had done openly. Su Peizhen didn’t expect him to say this. She was stunned.
“I followed you,”Ling Jing said again. This time, he looked even more embarrassed.
“I can’t forget you.”He didn’t look at Su Peizhen’s eyes. Instead, he turned his face slightly to look at an unknown point. “Even if you don’t want me anymore, I Can’t Forget You.”
“You broke the contract. You clearly said half a year, but you abandoned me in advance. But I can’t forget you.”
He suddenly raised his head and looked at Su Peizhen. “I miss you very much.”
In the small carriage, there was only the light from the street lamps outside. It was dim and somewhat hazy. The young man with a devilish appearance looked like a young boy who had just fallen in love. He looked at her with a very sincere and pious gaze and told her that he liked her.
The throbbing that Su Peizhen had deliberately suppressed in the deepest part of her heart seemed to be showing signs of rekindling.
Su Peizhen pursed her lips into a straight line. She did not like this idea.
“Ling Jing, I said that we are over.”
“Yes. We are over.”Ling Jing looked at her with a bitter expression. “I know that I am not worthy of you, and I also know that you will not like me. But how can a person control matters of love?”
Su Peizhen did not speak. She had never truly fallen in love with anyone. She did not know that feeling.
Initially, she was engaged to Chou Yanbo because the two families were of equal status and status. Later, she was engaged to Huo Yifan because they used each other and exchanged benefits.
Later, when she was released from prison, her mentality was no longer the same as before. To her, what was Love? She did not know what it felt like to love someone.
She once had a family that she loved dearly, but later, she realized that those family members did not belong to her.
After losing her family, she had almost given up everything in the first half of her life.
Now there was someone who looked into her eyes and confessed to her so seriously. She couldn’t tell what she felt in her heart, and she didn’t know how to respond. In the end, she could only turn her face away.
She didn’t speak, and Ling Jing started the car directly. Su Peizhen sat there without speaking, but she quickly realized that this wasn’t the way to Rongyuan.
She glanced at Ling Jing and did not ask him where he planned to take her.
The car soon stopped in a relatively old neighborhood. Ling Jing got out of the car and glanced at her.
His eyes were a little perturbed, a little uneasy, and a little uncertain.
Su Peizhen met his eyes, pursed her lips, and followed him out of the car.
There was almost no place to park in the neighborhood, so the car had to be parked outside. There was a section of road to the residential area. In the dilapidated residential area, a few sparse trees were considered to be greenery.
After bypassing a flower bed that did not look beautiful, Ling Jing brought her into the door of one of the buildings.
The iron door was a little old. When she entered the door, she found that it was not only old, but there was also no elevator.
The two of them went upstairs together. Su Peizhen was wearing high heels and stepping on the stairs. The sound of her footsteps sounded very loud in the dark.
She could not help but want to keep her footsteps light, but it was a little difficult.
Fortunately, the floor was not high, only three floors. After going upstairs, Ling Jing took out the key to open the door. Su Peizhen glanced at his figure and finally followed behind him into the door.
