Chapter 52: Cold and Ruthless Behind the Concern
d nor looked closely, just thumbed through the screen until his body got tired and he fell asleep.A glint of light from the corner of his eye caught something. Suddenly, a shiver ran down his spine, a...A sound came from behind.
"Stop, where are you going" Shen Xiujing narrowed his eyes at the woman's hesitant appearance, feeling a surge of madness.
"Work." Jian Tong said slowly.
Suddenly!
A man's heart burned with fury. His face, usually as cold as jade, betrayed no emotion. Suddenly, he spoke: "Work With your frail body now" He scoffed at the woman's audacity. She was blinded by greed, obsessed with money. Just barely escaped death, she only had eyes for wealth the moment she opened them. What else could possibly matter to her besides money
Oh... wrong!
And Lu Chen!
Lu Chen, who was still on her lips even in her sleep!
"If there's nothing else, then Mr. Shen, I'll get back to work." She was still the same, timid and shrinking, her back bent over as if her spine could never straighten. Looking at her, Shen Xiujian felt a strange anger rise within him, along with a hint of… sadness that he deliberately ignored.
Love my job...
"Well, to have such a diligent employee like you is my good fortune as a boss. Since you love your work so much, then use your diligence to earn five million within a month."
Jian Tong had a feeling she was about to faint. She turned her head incredulously towards the man sitting on the sofa, trembling as she asked:
"Mr. Shen wants me to transfer five million into that bank account within a month"
Shen Xiujin didn't answer her question, he just sneered and waved his hand: "Go to work, I believe in you, you are a good employee." He even cheered her up: "Work hard, I have high expectations for you."
The blatant sarcasm left Jian Tong's face ashen, her lips trembling. She stared intently at the person before her, her eyes wide and focused solely on them. Slowly, she opened her mouth, hesitated for a moment, but in the end... she said nothing, not even a plea for mercy.
"I understand, Mr. Shen." With that, she left in silence, walking towards the elevator under his gaze.
The moment the elevator doors closed, the man on the sofa, with his icy expression, suddenly burst into a bloody smile... He used to kneel and beg for mercy at the drop of a hat, but now he wouldn't even utter a soft word. And this change started the day she met Lu Chen.
Picked up his phone, "Lu Chen." He threw the three words to the other end of the call and cut off the connection. Holding the phone in his palm, suddenly, he slammed it heavily onto the television screen!
In a moment, the intercom at the elevator entrance rang. Shen Xiujin pressed the universal remote in his hand and said into the intercom, "Boss, Mr. Bai had someone bring medicine. Should I take it up now"
"Just deliver it to Su Meng and have her give it to that woman," He said, preparing to hang up when he suddenly remembered something and added, "Don't mention me to that woman."
Shen Yi responded with a sound, Shen Xiuqin thought for a moment: "After you deliver the medicine to Su Meng's place, immediately go and check, about what happened in Du Liqun's private room today, I want everything, big or small, not a single detail missed, all clear."
"Yes, Boss."
"Go ahead."
……
Shen Yi knocked on the door. Hearing a "please come in," he pushed the door open.
Su Meng was surprised: "How did you come here" As soon as she finished speaking, Su Meng, being shrewd, immediately understood: "Is there something General Shen wants me to do"
Shen placed the medicine in Su Meng's hand and said, "Please make sure Ms. Jian takes this on time."
"Fever medicine" Su Meng glanced at the medicine bag on the table. "How did you know Jian Tong had a fever"
Shen Yi frowned slightly, the next second he remained calm: "Then how did you know Ms. Jian had a fever"
She got caught in the rain on her way home from work a while back, and she's been feeling unwell ever since. She's dizzy, unsteady, and even took a tumble, scraping her forehead so badly that I could see it even without my glasses.
"Since you know Miss Jian isn't feeling well, why didn't you approve her leave"
"You're interesting, you're saying that I exploit Jian Tong and bully her" Su Meng rolled her eyes: "That fool, does she need me to bully her Jian Tong has her heart set on money. Don't tell me you don't know about the 5 million Boss offered Jian Tong. She's now working like she doesn't value her life for that 5 million."
Even though his body was not fully healed and the stitches on his head hadn't been removed, he ran back to the Donghuang to ask me if I had any work for him.
"So you gave her that dangerous job"
If Su Meng hadn't figured out the trick yet, then she would have wasted her time being a shrewd person in this S city. Her elegant brows furrowed, "Wait a minute, playing with one's life What do you mean"
Jian Tong ran back to Emperor Dong without hesitation, but that didn't mean she would blindly follow that fool and do those dangerous tasks for her. "I am not so heartless," she said. "People get sick; they shouldn't be forced to do menial labor."
She came back while she was still sick. During this time, I ignored her and didn't give her any work to do, except for the guest a few days ago, but that guest didn't make Jian Tong do anything difficult, let alone anything "life-threatening".
Shen Yian looked at Su Meng's expression and didn't think she was faking it. He tentatively asked, "Do you know that Du Liqun from the Hong Kong businessman"
"Du Liqun... oh, are you talking about that Du Liqun from the south What happened to that Du Liqun"
"Du Liqun dined at Donghuang today, reserving a private room on the sixth floor." Shen Yi frowned. "Su Meng, you didn't know about what happened on the sixth floor just now"
Su Meng stared blankly, her mind replaying Shen Yi's words over and over.
Mr. Tu, a Hong Kong businessman, came to consume today and booked the Dong Huang Liu Lou private room on the sixth floor. Just now, something huge happened on the sixth floor... She suddenly widened her eyes!
"Jian Tong!" Su Meng suddenly stood up, her chair crashing to the floor with a loud "bang".
Suddenly, a strong arm shot out, roughly grabbing Shen Yi's white shirt: "Tell me everything you know!"
"Sumeng, as the right-hand man of Emperor Tongtian, you've failed miserably. After living a comfortable life for too long, you don't even know about such a big incident happening in your own territory"
"Cut the crap, I just came back from He Lao's banquet at Donghuang to get something. Tell me what happened while I was gone. Why did you give medicine to Jian Tong What did that idiot sell"
Shen Yi wasn't unfamiliar with Su Meng's ferocious side, but that was two years ago. Ever since Su Meng became the CEO of Donghuang, Shen Yi hadn't seen her like this again. He felt a little out of place and coughed: "Let go first."
"You go first."
"......Shen Yi helplessly recounted to Su Meng the events of the day in a concise manner. "
Su Meng's blood boiled instantly upon hearing this. She abruptly threw off Shen Yi and strode out, "I'm going to ask that Xu who gave her the audacity to arrange such a 'sponsor' for that fool!"her voice tinged with a strange mix of concern and apprehension, "you... aren't thinking of leaving here, are you" Her words sounded more like a final instruction than a simple inquiry.Bah bah bah, n...
