Leng Yixiu put down the newspaper with an expressionless face, but the phone on his desk suddenly rang. The call was from Fei Yichen, and Leng Yixiu picked up the phone to answer it.
Soon, Fei Yichen’s voice came from the other end, "So, President Leng, are you satisfied with this result?"
The man’s eyes flickered slightly, but his handsome face showed no emotion. He lightly opened his thin lips, "I owe you a favor for this. If you’re still interested in that piece of land in the south of the city, you can have it."
"How can that be? Taking care of two people was just a small effort for me. That land in the south of the city is highly coveted now, giving it to me would be too generous."
"President Fei, you should know that I don’t like owing people favors. Once I repay this, I can ask for your help again in the future."
"Since that’s the case, it would be pretentious of me to refuse. I won’t be polite then. If there’s anything else you need me to handle, just say the word."
Old He had been standing quietly behind Leng Yixiu, listening to their conversation. These days, he had been by Leng Yixiu’s side and naturally knew what Leng Yixiu was up to.
Seeing the man hang up the phone, Old He hesitated for a moment before finally speaking up, "Sir, there’s something I don’t know if I should say."
Leng Yixiu raised his eyes and gave him a deep look, then said in a low voice, "Just say it."
"Sir, you’ve been in the business world for years, and although you sometimes use certain methods against your competitors, you never involved the underworld. But this time, you broke the rule for Miss Lin. I’m afraid that when the time comes..."
"You’re afraid that when the time comes, I’ll be in deep trouble?" the man asked with a raised brow.
"This..." Old He did not deny it and said softly, "After all, President Fei has underworld connections, and their way of handling problems can easily leave evidence."
The man curved his lips nonchalantly, "If Fei Yichen can’t handle such a small issue cleanly, then he’s wasted his years in T City."
Leng Yixiu was a good judge of character. Although Fei Yichen was ruthless and merciless in his actions, he was meticulous and principled. He was much better than those hypocritical gentlemen. Dealing with him wasn’t something Leng Yixiu needed to worry about, nor did he need to fear being implicated.
Upon hearing this, Old He said no more, but his worry remained. Now he worried not whether Leng Yixiu would get into trouble because of this, but he was concerned for Lin Yixun.
Mr. Leng broke his rule and involved the underworld to handle the two men who bullied Lin Yixun very simply because he hadn’t let go of her, or maybe deep down, he wanted to make up for something by doing these things.
But once some things happen, once some harm is done, can it really be remedied?
If not, then what kind of fate awaits Lin Yixun?
Since Li Yun’er posted that update on Weibo, the online slander against Lin Yixun finally subsided. The rumors about her, Ouyang Hao, and Li Yun’er also gradually got overshadowed by other gossip news.
Lin Yixun naturally wouldn’t bother reading the comments from online trolls. She wouldn’t seek trouble for herself. The most noticeable change she felt was that the strange looks people gave her disappeared, and the paparazzi lurking outside the hospital also vanished.
She thought everything would pass like the last "Cheng Ying injury incident", and people would quickly forget about her. But things didn’t go as she had hoped.
