Reborn : Space Intelligent Woman

Chapter 2605: Chapter 2605: A Colonel and A Chairwoman

Cheng Bolin and Manager Kang seemed to forget that they were speaking through Yu Qi’s phone. And Yu Qi had recorded the entire conversation without missing a single word.

From what Cheng Bolin stated during the call, the company clearly intended to push Manager Kang out as their scapegoat in order to avoid punishment. Yu Qi would never allow that to happen so easily.

Manager Kang still could not recover from the video call. The words from Cheng Bolin were still loudly in his mind, echoing again and again.

He looked at the woman and the man before him. The realisation that his world was collapsing was being replaced by a frantic, desperate curiosity.

”Who... who are you people?” Manager Kang’s voice cracked as he spoke.

They were not simple people at all. A simple doctor would not be feared by his boss. Not to mention that man... His skill was far too good and far too terrifying.

Yu Qi straightened her lab coat, her aura shifting from a gentle doctor to a cold and commanding executive. The air in the room seemed to sharpen around instantly around her.

”You are right, Manager Kang. My primary profession is indeed a doctor, but I am also involved in the business. I am Tang Yu Qi, the chairwoman of QinYue Group. Nice to meet you.” Yu Qi spoke with a tone of absolute authority.

Manager Kang’s eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets. He heard about QinYue Group before. Even though it was just established not long ago, it was already rapidly becoming a multi-industry conglomerate that completely dwarfed Sheng Logistics.

”The... The Chairwoman?” Manager Kang’s face turned ashen grey as disbelief filled his expression.

​”And as for the ’help’ you so graciously offered to break the ribs of, I believe you heard about him, too. He is my fiancé, Long Hui.” Yu Qi glanced at Long Hui with a small and proud smile.

Long Hui stepped forward.

”I am Colonel Long Hui from the military.” Long Hui introduced himself sharply.

The name Colonel Long hit Manager Kang like a physical blow. He knew Colonel Long. In the military and high-society circles, the Long family was a dynasty, and Long Hui was its most lethal edge.

Offending him was not just a business mistake, but it was a death sentence for his career.

Manager Kang’s phone finally slipped from his hand, clattering to the floor.

”A colonel and the chairwoman of QinYue Group...” Manager Kang mumbled under his breathin disbelief.

He looked at the two of them. They were people whose power could move mountains and shift markets with a single phone call. Only now did he realise that he had tried to extort a poor village that was actually under the protection of giants.

”I don’t know... I was just following orders from my boss. Please...” Manager Kang whimpered as he slid off his chair and dropped onto his knees. ”I will pay it all back.”

”You’re right. You will pay it back. But you would not be doing it from an office. You will be doing it from a cell while the police investigate exactly how much extra money has been moving through these mountain passes under your watch.” Long Hui said coldly.

Manager Kang went completely blank. At that moment, he knew his life was over.

Yu Qi turned toward the window and looked outside at the villagers who were still gathered there, anxiously waiting for news.

”Chief Su...” Yu Qi called out.

Su Longuo, who had been hovering in a dazed state of shock, snapped back to reality the moment he heard Yu Qi call his name.

”Yes... Chairwoman Tang?” Su Longuo asked.

”The harvest will be purchased by QinYue Group at double the current market rate as a signing bonus for your new partnership. I will ask my secretary to prepare the contract.” Yu Qi announced.

Then, she cast a disgusted glance at Manager Kang.

”As for the road, someone will be personally financing the paving project.” Yu Qi smirked.

​Long Hui looked at Yu Qi, a glimmer of amusement and admiration in his eyes. ”Always the businesswoman, Qi Qi.”

​”Justice is better when it’s profitable for the innocent.” Yu Qi replied with a playful wink.

Su Longuo immediately stood up from his seat and bowed deeply to Yu Qi and Long Hui.

”Thank you. Thank you.” Su Longuo expressed his gratitude repeatedly with deep sincerity.

Soon, the sound of heavy-duty engines rumbled through the quiet village. However, this time, the sound was very different.

Long Hui had already called the police to report the case. He informed them about everything they had discovered. As for the evidence, he would submit it later.

The police soon arrived and took custody of Manager Kang and his men. One by one, they were escorted into the police trucks.

After Long Hui finished handling the things there, he went to find Yu Qi.

At that moment, Yu Qi was peeling the miniature high-tech microphone from the underside of the desk. She also retrieved the hidden cameras that Long Hui had planted the night before. She looked down at the small pile of surveillance equipment now resting in her hands.

That was when Long Hui appeared at the door.

”You know, Brother Hui... I think we might have overdone it just a little bit.” Yu Qi chuckled with a playful spark in her eyes.

”What do you mean, Qi Qi?” Long Hui asked curiously.

”Well, we spent all night sneaking around in the dark, planting high-grade surveillance tech and worrying about signal ranges. But in the end, all it took was one phone call and a few minutes of you looking at him like you were going to snap him in half. We did not even the recordings to break him.” Yu Qi gestured to the devices and laughed softly.

”Well, it is not a waste of time. After all, I quite enjoyed the moonlight stroll through the orchard with you.” Long Hui replied with a smile on his lips.
