Chapter 624: Thrashing Long Tianya

”So it’s settled then, I hope our Ye Group can collaborate pleasantly with Miss Nangong.”

Ye Xiangtian extended his hand courteously.

This time, Nangong Bing did not avoid it out of courtesy and shook it briefly.

It was at that moment that someone hurriedly pushed open the door. Ye Xiangtian happened to be gently rubbing Nangong Bing’s slender hand and was smiling earnestly.

As a man, Lin Zifeng felt an uncomfortably bitter sensation suddenly arise in his heart.

Under such circumstances, any normal man would feel a sour taste in his heart.

Nangong Bing quickly withdrew her hand, her cheeks flushing with a purplish-red hue, then she cast a glance at Lin Zifeng, signaling with her eyes that it was merely a small misunderstanding.

Of course, Lin Zifeng was not petty to that extent.

Ye Xiangtian rubbed his fingers and said with a serious smile, ”Miss Nangong, then I’ll not bother you further, and let’s keep in touch in the future.”

After that, he strode confidently towards the exit with his entourage.

Ye Xiangtian’s gaze swept disdainfully over Lin Zifeng a few times before he snorted coldly and arrogantly turned his head, heading outside.

Lin Zifeng ignored him. Creatures with such inflated egos, thinking they were the best in the world, had died by his hand more than he could count.

”Why have you come back only now?”

Nangong Bing asked while holding some documents.

”I got held up by some matters, so I’m a bit late,” Lin Zifeng’s expression was slightly stiff.

”Oh.” The woman nodded and said, ”By the way, the matter you investigated in the Trade Department is clear now, only the Public Relations Department has not been thoroughly checked. Could you help look into it? Otherwise, it’s tough to keep Sun Xiaonao of the Trade Department quiet.”

”What do you mean?”

”You investigated Sun Xiaonao’s Trade Department last time, and Sun Xiaonao has been holding a grudge. To be fair, I think you better check the Public Relations Department, so as not to give anyone a pretext,” she said.

”Is this appropriate? Investigating the PR just like that, blatantly, aren’t you afraid this might leave Zhao Xuemo with some shadows? You know, Tianyu is already quite short on human resources, and this investigation might just seem like suspicion. I don’t think it’s a good idea.”

”I know it might affect her work adversely, but the company has been facing issues. The board has already begun to waver; they have been putting pressure on me. If we don’t ensure fairness, the outcome might be far beyond what we anticipate.”

The woman’s eyebrows were slightly furrowed. Tianyu was not the same as it was a year ago.

Since their father’s death, the company’s shares had been severely fragmented. Besides the forty percent of Tianyu’s shares still in Nangong Bing’s hands, the rest had mostly been dissipated by those parasites.

”How do you need me to help? Should I go investigate directly?” Lin Zifeng pondered for a moment, feeling it was inappropriate, then said, ”I’ll find a reason to check instead. After all, Zhao Xuemo is a long-standing employee. If mishandled, other companies might offer a high price to poach her, and then the one at a loss would only be Tianyu.”

”You know, although the company has nurtured her over the years, and she has earned her stripes, such a business elite is a highly sought-after asset wherever she goes.”

Lin Zifeng smiled, vividly and elaborately explaining to Nangong Bing, his demeanor and attitude as if he, himself, were the CEO.

”Oh!? You seem to know quite a lot about Zhao Xuemo from the Public Relations Department,” she said.

At that, the woman slowly turned around, her gaze playful and tight on someone.

”Uh, don’t misunderstand, I’m just being responsible for the company, loyally serving you, so I made a small inquiry. Isn’t this for your good, for our Tianyu’s good? Look at those eyes of yours, making me out to be a criminal. Despite how much I slave away, you not only refuse to give me any sweetener, but you also look at me with that strange expression. I’m really disappointed,”

saying, the person even shook his head as if he genuinely cared a lot about Tianyu’s interests.

In truth, this person had had more than one or two romantic escapades with Zhao Xuemo before, and even a fool would know something about the other’s background after being bulldozed over.

”Is that really true?” The woman shot him a sidelong glance, always feeling that there was something insincere about his words.

”Really! Absolutely true!” someone earnestly nodded and said.

”Looking at you.”

Nangong Bingling’s lively eyes gave him a deep white glance, and she was about to say something but suddenly stopped.

”It doesn’t seem like you’re lying!” Lin Zifeng shrugged his shoulders, interrupting with an answer.

”Do you have to sell your own melons like this?”

”No! No! No! This isn’t selling one’s own melons, this is confidence.”

Confidence?

”Confidence, my foot, confidence!” The woman glared at him annoyed and then said, ”This matter is now your responsibility. Whether you can handle it or not, well, you know.”

”Know? What do I know? Hey, hey! Boss, isn’t this too much? Just dumping this mess on me? No, no! You should find someone else for this job, I don’t think I can handle this mess.”

”Whether you can handle it is your problem, but the task is already in your hands, and I expect a satisfactory result by this time tomorrow,” she said.

Having said that, the woman felt great satisfaction, her lips curving into a smug smile as she walked confidently towards the exit.

The way she strutted would surely be a sight if the junior employees at the company could see her.

...

That afternoon, Lin Zifeng felt this task was a bit unreliable.

Indecisively, Lin Zifeng still lacked the courage to go to the public relations department.

What a joke, isn’t this asking for trouble?

Last time the two had just had an unpleasant romantic episode, and if he went there again, who knows, they might look at him with the third eye.

By the time work ended, Lin Zifeng still hesitated and didn’t go in.

So, watching Zhao Xuemo drive away, Lin Zifeng just stood there, spacing out.

He slapped his own old face.

”Damn! That woman is really scary, she obviously saw me, all tsk!”

That evening, just as he was about to head home, he ran into Mu Yang again.

The two had two cups of coffee at the restaurant by the company’s entrance and then slowly parted ways.

”Out with it, you’ve seemed to be holding back something all this time,” she said.

Mu Yang was a smart woman, easily guessing the little secret Lin Zifeng was hiding inside.

”Uh, better not to say now, let’s leave it for later.”

”Later, I fear you’ll have fewer and fewer chances to talk!”

Just then, a familiar voice suddenly echoed at the deserted end of the street.

Gradually, the owner of the voice emerged from the night.

Followed by dozens of men in combat uniforms slowly walking out from behind him.

In no time, dozens of indifferent figures emerged again behind them!

”Long Tianya!”
