"Fuck! Let’s see who dares to say another word!"
Hearing the mockery around him, Director Guo could no longer endure and immediately pulled out a switchblade from his pocket, instantly deterring everyone present.
As his voice rang out, many underlings also scanned the crowd angrily, ready to take action against anyone who dared to make a sound.
"What, is Director Chen so weak in your eyes?" Xia Liu asked with a grin, looking at Director Guo.
At these words, Director Guo’s body began to tremble.
Glancing toward Director Chen, he turned tail and ran.
"Handcuff them all!" Director Chen ordered as he saw Director Guo trying to flee.
It was bad enough that Director Guo framed the Osmanthus Group in front of him, but he also dared to disregard the county bureau!
After Director Guo took off, the underlings on the scene scattered as if their souls had left their bodies.
However, many didn’t get far before they were restrained by Director Chen’s colleagues.
"Haha! Good! These guys really have a case of the green-eyed monster."
"I hate these types of people the most, we almost misunderstood the Osmanthus Group."
"Yeah, luckily we didn’t rush into the Osmanthus Group, or that would have been a disaster."
"Damn it, if I see Director Guo in the county again, I’ll have someone beat him up!"
As Director Guo fled and most of the underlings were taken down, the crowd at the scene began to discuss fervently.
"Listen everyone, in three days, at the county cinema, the Osmanthus Group will hold a press conference to announce their renovation plans. Go back and spread the word. It’s best if you can attend the event, but if you can’t, you can watch it on TV or online."
As more and more onlookers gathered at the scene, Xia Liu announced softly.
His voice was soft, but it was mixed with Spiritual Energy so everyone within five hundred meters could hear him clearly.
"Haha! I’ll definitely be there!"
"The Osmanthus Group is really a great company!"
"President Xia is mighty!"
Amid bursts of loud cheers and excitement that lasted for about fifteen minutes, the crowd of onlookers gradually dispersed.
"My god, I’m thankful you came back in time, otherwise I wouldn’t have been able to control myself from crushing that troublemaker." Lin Xiaotian said as he gently punched Xia Liu in the chest.
After advancing to the third level of Qi Cultivation, the Inner Spirit Energy within him was always on the verge of erupting.
Really, the pressure of the situation was huge; he almost lost control and killed Director Guo.
"Xiaotian, you did well, but you need to learn to remain calm, to control your power," Xia Liu said, patting Lin Xiaotian’s shoulder.
"President Xia, I’m so sorry, there were many people just now who didn’t know the full story, I couldn’t fulfill my responsibility..."
"Please don’t say that, Director Chen. I’m very grateful you came here. Otherwise, they would have charged into the company and started smashing things." Xia Liu replied earnestly, cutting off Director Chen before he could finish.
"I really appreciate President Xia’s understanding. I’ll go back and interrogate them, and we’ll definitely catch Director Guo and give an explanation to the Osmanthus Group and everyone involved."
"Okay! On behalf of everyone, I thank Director Chen."
Xia Liu had the opportunity to capture Director Guo just now, but he didn’t; he actually wanted to see who was behind Director Guo.
With Chen Jin’s departure, the scene returned to calm, and the security guards and employees of Osmanthus Group tidied up the mess left behind by the ridiculous incident.
"Xia Liu, you need to be more careful in the future; we couldn’t even reach you on your phone," Fang Fei approached Xia Liu with a group of women, intending to give him a little scolding.
"Exactly, if you didn’t come back, the company could have been torn apart."
Li Qianqian was also quite upset, although she now had the capability to intercept troublemakers.
But these people were all residents of Hejing, she had no reason to go full out; if she really hurt someone,
sit would likely escalate into an even bigger incident.
"Hehe, I’ll be more careful in the future," Xia Liu gave a bitter smile, it was not his fault that his phone had died.
However, after this lesson, he would have to be much more vigilant.
"Brother Xia Liu, didn’t you bring us any gifts this time?" Just then, Zhang Xiaoman started to smile and walked over to the car.
"A gift..." Xia Liu didn’t stop Zhang Xiaoman, instead, he was somewhat looking forward to the expression she would have next.
"Xia Liu, it looks like there’s someone sitting in your car, who is it?" Huang Xue’s eyes were remarkably sharp; despite the distance, she could still make out something.
"I bet it must be some rich family’s young lady."
"Yeah, this guy must have lured some poor girl back home."
"Ah! How could it be you!" Just as the girls were laughing and discussing warmly, Zhang Xiaoman who was standing by the car door, let out a cry of surprise.
She just saw Xia Liu’s car seat was occupied by a girl with long hair and hurried over to check, only to find someone unexpected!
Following the scream, everyone looked over to see Liu Lanxin smiling as she slowly exited the car.
"As expected, Brother Xia Liu is amazing, that seems to be the heiress of Tianluo Pharmaceutical." Zhang Xiaoxue had seen Liu Lanxin a few times in town before and had some impression of her.
Now looking at her, she seemed to have become a member of their sisterhood.
"Sister Fang, Lanxin and Xiaoman are schoolmates, and they seem to have had some conflicts in school, so..."
"It’s okay, you don’t have to say it, we know what to do," Fang Fei gave Xia Liu a reassuring look.
Now that she had joined the sisterhood, it was her obligation and responsibility to ensure that everyone got along intimately.
"Hehe, this is great, now let’s see if Xia Liu still dares not to surrender."
"Qianqian, keep it down. It’s not good if others hear you," Gu Fangxia quickly reminded Li Qianqian, who was behaving somewhat indiscreetly.
"Uh-uh, I will be careful," Li Qianqian lifted her head to scan the surroundings and nodded bitterly.
"Xiaoman, don’t be so surprised. Is it not quite normal for me to be here?" After determining her relationship with Xia Liu, Liu Lanxin kept thinking about how to act upon seeing Zhang Xiaoman, and when they actually met, she became calm and even shy, perhaps due to the presence of Fang Fei and the others.
"Of course I’m surprised! I thought it was someone else, but it turns out to be the heiress of Tianluo Pharmaceutical, a rare guest indeed."
"Not a rare guest, now I’m just like you, Sister Xiaoman..." Although Liu Lanxin could sense the sarcasm in Zhang Xiaoman’s words, she wasn’t angered; instead, she addressed her respectfully.
"Pfft! Sister Xiaoman..." Zhang Xiaoman almost spat out blood. In her memory, Liu Lanxin was supposed to be a very domineering presence, so why was she being so conciliatory to her now?
"Giggle, Sister Xiaoman, come introduce your sister to everyone," Fang Fei called out.
Liu Lanxin had been closely following Xia Liu, so she knew about Fang Fei’s status within the sisterhood, although no one had spoken of it.
But she was the equivalent of the "first lady"; if the first lady spoke, of course, she would go over to meet everyone.
