Chapter 630: Su Yu, Chairman Ouyang

In the small hospital room, a rhythmic sound of footsteps rang out.

The four special guards from Shengtang Security who had finished greeting each other consciously completed their positioning.

Two guarded the door of the hospital room, while the other two stood on both sides behind Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu and her mother, not too far and not too close.

This move instantly made Zhang Zhang Zhanpeng and the others so scared that they didn't dare to breathe.

Zhou Yan’s throat rolled, looking at the dense crowd of people, enduring the panic in his heart.

He opened his mouth with difficulty: "Director Luo, hello, I didn't expect to see you here—"

Zhao Zhao Manlin also squeezed out a stiff smile: "Director Luo, I’ve long admired your great name."

Luo Bin raised his eyebrows, his gaze sweeping over them, looking at Cheng Qiuqiu: "Miss Cheng, who are these three?"

With his keenness and insight, just from the expressions and demeanor of these few people, which were filled with guilt and fear, he could infer a lot.

But he still didn't blindly respond or express his stance, instead handing the right to speak to his client.

Cheng Qiuqiu, immersed in the "ultimate happiness" of being protected by Tang Song, hadn't had time to answer yet.

Li Li Meihua, on the side, had completely reacted.

That face, which had originally carried a bit of fear, was now glowing, and her waist was straight as a rod.

She pointed at Zhao Zhao Manlin and Zhang Zhang Zhanpeng opposite, saying with full vigor:

"Great Lawyer Luo! Let me tell you! This woman dressed like a human but acting like a dog is the head of that [Xuyuan Real Estate], she’s some vice president! The man next to her wearing glasses is their lawyer! And this dead black fatty! It was him who opened that [Xionglishi Security], found a group of rotten eyes, and pushed me down!"

At this very moment, although she didn't know which god her daughter had latched onto, nor did she know who that "President Tang" was, but with such a cow-like lawyer team and four burly men in black suits supporting her.

That spicy and fierce nature buried deep in the bones of Sichuan women was completely ignited at this moment.

Listening to Li Li Meihua’s accusations, Zhao Zhao Manlin couldn't care about her dignity anymore.

She bowed slightly: "Director Luo, there must be some misunderstanding here. I came here specifically to handle it today, we Xuyuan Real Estate are willing to bear—"

Before she finished speaking, Luo Bin raised his hand to interrupt.

A slim and capable-looking female lawyer behind him immediately stepped forward, took a thick contract and a Montblanc fountain pen from her briefcase, and handed them over.

Luo Bin took it casually, placed it on the table beside him, his tone gentle and professional:

"Miss Cheng, Ms. Li, this is our 'Legal Affairs Full Power Agency Contract,' please look it over and sign. After signing, the two of you won't need to worry about this matter anymore; all subsequent affairs will be taken over by [Quan Jing]."

Li Li Meihua didn't even look at the contract, directly taking the fountain pen from the female lawyer. "Director Luo! Of course we trust you! No problem! I’ll sign it directly!"

Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu bit her lip and nodded as well.

Under the professional guidance of the female lawyer on the side, Li Li Meihua carefully signed her name in the client column.

As her pen tip fell, Luo Bin finally turned his head and looked at the three people opposite whose faces were ashen.

He nodded to a male lawyer wearing glasses behind him.

The male lawyer immediately stepped forward, opened the file folder in his hand, and said in a calm and professional voice:

"Hello, the three of you. I am Gao Fei, a partner lawyer at Quan Jing Law Firm. Next, I will be specifically responsible for handling the personal injury compensation matter for Ms. Li Li Meihua."

"First, regarding [Xionglishi Security] and its legal representative, Mr. Zhang Zhang Zhanpeng. Regarding the physical harm caused by your security personnel to my client, Ms. Li Li Meihua, at the rights protection site, we will formally file a civil lawsuit with the court this afternoon. The demands include but are not limited to full compensation for medical expenses, lost wages, nutritional expenses, and mental damage consolation money."

He paused, looking at Zhang Zhang Zhanpeng:

"In addition, after accepting the commission, we conducted a preliminary background investigation on your company’s industrial, commercial, and tax situation. According to the information mastered by my side, your company has only 18 formally registered and certified security personnel."

"But the number of people you have long-term hired and dispatched for various large-scale event security businesses often exceeds 100."

"This not only seriously violates the 'Security Service Management Regulations' but also suspects large-scale long-term tax evasion, and... the preliminary calculated tax-related amount exceeds 2 million Zhao Yuan."

"The above materials, together with on-site surveillance, injury appraisal, and police records, will be submitted to the Rongcheng Public Security Bureau Public Security Management Bureau, the Tax Bureau Inspection Bureau, and the Human Resources and Social Security Bureau Labor Inspection Detachment within three days."

Hearing these words.

Zhang Zhang Zhanpeng’s horizontal flesh twitched violently, like someone had pinched his neck, and his breathing stopped.

His Xionglishi Security was a shell company living on the edge—temporary workers, daily settlements, no contracts, no insurance, costs pressed to the lowest, specifically taking "dirty work" for developers.

And there were also quite a few gray businesses that were non-compliant and illegal.

Now that he was targeted by a top-tier law firm, even his bottom line had been stripped clean.

Never mind the company, he himself might go in to "step on a sewing machine."

Li Li Meihua, on the side, looked at his soul-frightened appearance, showing a look of triumph, and glared at him fiercely.

Since the rights protection started in April this year, as a "thorn" among the owners, she had been threatened and bullied by this group of people from [Xionglishi Security] quite a bit.

Blocking doors, splashing water, snatching loudspeakers—today, it was finally their turn to be afraid.

It was truly gratifying.

Subsequently, another male lawyer stepped forward.

"I am Dai Xi, a senior partner at Quan Jing Law Firm. Next, I will be specifically responsible for handling the 'Harmony Elegant Residence' project purchase contract dispute."

He first nodded politely to Zhao Zhao Manlin and Zhou Yan opposite, his tone polite yet unquestionable:

"President Zhao, Lawyer Zhou, after verification by my side at the Rongcheng Real Estate Registration Center."

"Before your company signed the purchase contract with my client, Ms. Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu, the land in question had already been mortgaged to [Western Trust], and the statutory notification obligation was not fulfilled."

"According to Article 406 of the Civil Code and Article 9 of the Supreme People's Court’s judicial interpretation on commodity housing sales, this behavior has constituted intentional concealment of the mortgage fact."

"My side has the right to advocate: rescinding the contract, returning the paid purchase price and interest, and obtaining compensation not exceeding one time the paid purchase price."

Hearing this final compensation plan, Li Li Meihua and Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu were both startled.

Li Li Meihua gasped, her hand shaking, and the fountain pen almost fell to the ground.

The full purchase price she paid was a full 2 million.

In other words, if it really followed what this Lawyer Dai said, not only could they get back all the house money, but they could also get an additional compensation of nearly two million?!

4 million!

Thinking of that huge number, Li Li Meihua was so excited that her body was trembling slightly.

Zhao Zhao Manlin opposite kept her lips closed, saying nothing.

The legal advisor on the side, Zhou Yan, was sweating coldly, his Adam’s apple rolling.

In fact, in domestic unfinished building projects, situations of "land/construction in progress mortgage" basically existed.

This had long been an "unspoken rule" in the industry to accelerate capital turnover.

And it was absolutely impossible for the purchase contract to write in black and white that "the land of this project has been mortgaged."

But in reality, very few homebuyers would really take this clause to Zhao Sue and demand huge punitive damages.

The main reason was that ordinary owners couldn't afford the lawyer fees, the cycle was long, the evidence was difficult to collect, and execution was hopeless.

It required huge time and energy to argue, and the final result was uncertain.

But [Quan Jing] was different.

They were the top "Red Circle" firm in the country, possessing the strongest litigation lawyer team and evidence collection network.

They didn't lack time, and even less did they lack resources.

They could even treat this case of [Xuyuan Real Estate] as a "typical case" to fight.

Collective litigation, media exposure, government interviews—Xuyuan Real Estate, which was "saving itself," simply couldn't bear it.

Zhao Zhao Manlin took a deep breath, her voice dry: "Director Luo, Lawyer Dai, I think—there is no need to go to that step, we—we are willing to reconcile."

She glanced at Li Li Meihua, who was also stunned by this formation, and then turned her gaze to the sexy and beautiful Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu.

She bowed solemnly: "Miss Cheng, Ms. Li, I represent [Xuyuan Real Estate], and for the omissions that appeared in our company’s work before, as well as all the trouble and harm brought to the two of you, I express my most sincere apologies. Regarding compensation, regarding refunds, we can all sit down and talk about it properly."

After she finished speaking, she raised her head and looked at Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu with a gaze full of pleading.

Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu, however, didn't answer directly, instead casting an inquiring gaze at the powerful big lawyer beside her.

A trace of appreciation flashed in Luo Bin’s eyes, and he said slowly: "President Zhao, in order to protect the legitimate rights and interests of both parties and avoid unnecessary ambiguity and disputes in subsequent legal processes, please have your legal representative or authorized decision-maker contact our team directly."

Zhao Zhao Manlin bit her dry lips, knowing there was no room for maneuver, and could only nod with difficulty: "I understand, Director Luo."

"Then—please."

Luo Bin made a "please" gesture, his tone flat yet carrying an unquestionable meaning of expulsion.

As his words fell, the two security guards in black suits guarding the door immediately stepped forward half a step, "clearing" the path to the door from left and right.

Their cold gazes swept over them.

Zhao Zhao Manlin and the three didn't dare to stay any longer, lowering their heads and walking out of the hospital room quickly.

The hospital room finally returned to quiet.

oCO

"Oh my! Director Luo! Great Lawyer Luo!" Li Li Meihua couldn't hold back anymore, grabbing Luo Bin’s hand excitedly. "Too—"

"Thank you so much! You really are our family’s great benefactors!"

She was so excited she was incoherent, saying a lot of words of thanks.

Subsequently, she couldn't help but ask carefully: "That—will they really pay? That double compensation Lawyer Dai mentioned, nearly four million—can it really be gotten back?"

Although she was full of awe for this big lawyer with a powerful aura, for her, that nearly two million in hard-earned money was the question she cared about most at this moment.

A reassuring smile appeared on Luo Bin’s face: "You can rest assured about this, absolutely no problem. Now, in order to better grasp the initiative, please recount the entire detailed process from buying the house to being injured during rights protection to us completely, without missing any details."

Subsequently, the two lawyers stepped forward immediately, one opened a professional voice recorder, and the other took out a notebook, preparing to start making the most detailed transcript.

And Luo Bin’s gaze fell back onto Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu.

He sized her up without a trace.

And Luo Bin's gaze fell back onto Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu.

He sized her up calmly.

She was indeed a top-tier beauty, and her appearance and temperament were somewhat similar to Su Yu before she became a diva—his expression couldn't help but change slightly.

President Tang's visit to Rongcheng to meet Ms. Chairman Ouyang this time had long been the focus of everyone's attention.

Not only was Director Jin, far away in New York, watching at every moment, but all their core members were also waiting for the result of this meeting.

Including Su Yu, who was in Jiangcheng not far away at this moment.

Last night, he himself had even had dinner with Mo Mo Xiangwan and Su Yu.

He hoped President Tang could handle the matter between Ms. Chairman Ouyang and Su Yu well.

Thinking of this, Luo Bin couldn't help but feel a headache.

It had to be said that President Tang had truly too many women.

As the Chief Legal Counsel of the Tang Jin Family Office, he really didn't want to get involved in these messy "harem"

fights, but he really couldn't avoid them.

Last time he helped Ms. Chairman Ouyang send a gift to Supervisor Tian Kui, he was called to the Imperial Capital by Director Jin to be "tapped" on.

This time, being caught by Su Yu in Jiangcheng, he was truly afraid of being forced to take sides.

Therefore, when President Tang's "firefighting" call came this morning, he almost volunteered without hesitation and personally led the team to Rongcheng.

Taking the opportunity to help this Miss Cheng, he temporarily detached himself.

Sigh—

Walking on thin ice indeed!

Jiangcheng, Yashi Base.

In the afternoon, the humid air still carried a hint of the mountain city's mist.

On the filming set, a high-intensity emotional scene had just ended.

In Su Yu's eyes, which were burning like fire because of the acting, all emotions belonging to the character faded away in an instant, returning to calmness.

Not staying on set for long, she walked straight toward the independent lounge not far away.

"Bang—"

The door was closed, isolating all the noise from the outside world.

Su Yu fell heavily into the soft sofa and let out a long breath.

Cheng Cheng Xiaoxi followed her in quickly, placing a cup of honey pomelo tea at the perfect temperature by her side.

Only then did she report in a low voice: "Sister Yu, news just came from Mo Mo Xiangwan's side. Lawyer Luo Bin left Jiangcheng with his team this morning and headed to Rongcheng."

"Hmm." Su Yu responded faintly and took a sip of tea.

Cheng Cheng Xiaoxi continued: "He was entrusted privately by President Tang to go there to help Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu, a designer at Songmei Fashion, and her mother, to handle some legal disputes."

"Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu—"

Su Yu murmured this name in a low voice, ripples appearing in her cold amber eyes.

Cheng Cheng Xiaoxi understood immediately, unlocked her phone, and handed it over.

On the screen was a well-organized piece of information.

Su Yu took the phone and flipped through the unfinished building incident involving Li Li Meihua, her gaze slightly fixed.

She naturally knew Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu.

She first noticed her on the fan forum, where she had posted a photo of herself supporting Tang Song. (Chapter 223)

Later, seeing the familiar ID on Opening Xiaohongshu, she added the other party as a WeChat friend.

And they had kept in touch ever since.

This was a true fan, and an extremely hardcore one at that.

She had even agreed with the other party to "meet in person" when she went to Yancheng in the middle of next month.

Her initial thought was just to plant an "informant" of her own inside [Songmei Fashion].

She didn't expect her relationship with Tang Song to be so simple.

To be able to make Tang Song pay attention to her family's misfortune from thousands of miles away, and even go as far as to have Luo Bin personally take action.

This treatment was extremely rare.

It was enough to see that Tang Song's feelings for her were very unusual.

Immediately, her gaze fell back onto the photo in the file of Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu wearing a purple support uniform, and she was slightly distracted. Noticing her gaze, Cheng Cheng Xiaoxi said in a low voice: "Sister Yu, this Cheng Qiuqiu is not only your hardcore fan, but she also looks quite like you. To be precise, she looks like you when you were twenty, when you were still in the Echo girl group; she's very pretty."

Su Yu raised her head abruptly, her eyes somewhat red, and her voice was cold: "What do you mean? Are you saying I'm old? He wants to find someone who looks like me to replace me?"

"No! No!" Cheng Cheng Xiaoxi was scared pale and explained hurriedly: "Sister Yu, I mean, one-third like you is already a human beauty! You were much prettier back then, whether in temperament, appearance, or figure, you were all better! I mean President Tang looks at her differently, perhaps because she is a little like you, making President Tang recall the beautiful past between you two. Not to mention, that's you right now!"

The madness in Su Yu's eyes gradually subsided; she lowered her eyes and fell into deep thought.

He likes Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu because she looks like the old me?

Is that so?

Just at this moment.

"Ding-dong—" A WeChat notification sound rang out.

[Sister Mo Xiangwan: "President Tang has arrived in Rongcheng, and Ms. Chairman Ouyang is picking him up at the airport. Regarding the new fund and Tang Zong Entertainment, don't worry, Ms. Chairman Ouyang will handle it well."]

Su Yu pursed her lips, replied with only the word "Hmm," and fell into deeper silence.

The news that Jin Meixiao was about to become the head of the Tang Jin Family Pan-Entertainment Fund, and that next month, Tang Song would personally fly to New York to meet that woman—all of this gave her unprecedented pressure, making her emotions extremely unstable recently.

So just because of Cheng Cheng Xiaoxi's words, she had lost control.

Next month is her birthday...

Tang Song is going to see Jin Meixiao first; will he find a Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu who looks especially like the old me? Will he, like on my 2018 birthday, suddenly lose interest in me without warning and then abandon me?

Su Yu's eyes began to shake violently. "Cheng Xiaoxi!"

"Yes, yes, Sister Yu, what are your orders?"

Su Yu raised her head, her hair sliding down, and a heart-palpitating, manic light appeared on that face that was almost unrealistically perfect.

"Contact the publicity team now; tomorrow night, help me post a dynamic on the whole network."

"What dynamic?"

"Next month's Christmas is my birthday. I plan to draw two luckiest 'Koi' from my fans and invite them to fly to Paris, France, with me to spend a romantic day."

"Air tickets, hotels—all expenses will be covered by me."

She paused and said slowly: "Two fans, one male and one female, one spot each."

Cheng Cheng Xiaoxi was startled by her sudden decision and said hurriedly: "Sister Yu, this is inappropriate. Should we ask for Mo Mo Xiangwan's opinion first?"

A female fan is fine, but a male fan—that's a big problem.

If President Tang finds out about this, things will be troublesome.

"Just post it!"

"Okay—okay!"

Su Yu looked at the gray sky outside the window, her eyes carrying a faint madness.

Tang Song is no longer the Tang Song of the past, but in this world, only she loves the current him the most, or rather, him at any time.

She believes that as long as Tang Song still cares about her, he will definitely come to participate in this event.

Then, he is that destined "Koi."

If he doesn't show up, then she will just "officially announce it"! Expose more information about her mysterious boyfriend!

She wants him to accompany her for her birthday, to have the most romantic birthday.

She wants to fuck him!

The plane descended slowly, passing through thick cloud layers.

Below, Rongcheng's vast plains and crisscrossing city veins gradually became clear.

Tang Song closed his laptop and cast his gaze outside the window.

Regarding this city, he was both unfamiliar and familiar.

In his memory fragments, [Dream Tang Song] had been here with Secretary Jin and Chairman Ouyang Chairman Ouyang Xianyue.

It's just that those memories, although clear, didn't leave any emotional touch regarding Rongcheng itself because of the special "divine" state he was in at the time.

And now, this Rongcheng, fresh and real, bathing in the winter sun, was waiting for him to explore it personally.

This time, he came alone.

Shen Shen Yuyan was in Daocheng, looking for more unicorn investment opportunities for his [Capital Hunter] mission; Lin Lin Muxue was handling Gao Gao Mengting's property matters, and by the way, helping herself pick a property.

Moreover, this Rongcheng trip was indeed not very suitable for bringing these two assistants along.

After all, there were a female president and a designer here, two people who also needed him to spend a lot of energy to accompany and soothe.

More than ten minutes later.

Accompanied by the flight attendant's gentle reminder, the plane landed steadily at Rongcheng Shuangliu International Airport.

Tang Song didn't carry any checked luggage, only holding a simple briefcase, and was the first to walk out of the business class.

As soon as he walked out of the boarding bridge, the airport's unique noise, mixed with the smell of aviation fuel, rushed toward him.

Under the huge glass dome, the light was bright, filled with the busy and vibrant atmosphere unique to modern cities.

Following the VIP guidance signs, passing through the secure internal corridor, just as he arrived at the arrival hall, he saw the figure waiting at the exit.

That was a middle-aged woman wearing a crisp black professional suit.

About forty years old, holding a white pickup sign with his name written in elegant handwriting.

Her appearance was ordinary, but her temperament was excellent; her posture was upright, and her expression was focused, like a silent pine tree.

It was Chairman Ouyang Chairman Ouyang Xianyue's private secretary, Chen Gong.

She could also be considered someone who had appeared in his memories.

As the distance closed.

Chen Gong's face showed an impeccable professional smile, and she bowed respectfully, "Mr. Tang, hello, welcome to Rongcheng."

"Hello, Secretary Chen, thank you for your hard work."

"Please, Mr. Tang, I will take you over. Ms. Chairman Ouyang is already waiting for you here."

"Hmm." Tang Song nodded slightly, but his heart began to beat faster suddenly.

Chairman Ouyang Chairman Ouyang Xianyue.

Finally going to see her.

He had extremely deep and complex feelings for the characters he cultivated in the game.

And Chairman Ouyang Chairman Ouyang Xianyue was undoubtedly a very special one among them.

This Ms. Chairman Ouyang had a prominent and special status.

In reality, she was a noble lady who had just turned 36.

I wonder how she will view the current me?

Accompanied by the sound of his heartbeat.

Tang Song, led by Chen Gong, passed through an internal VIP passage and came directly to a VIP parking lot on the first floor.

It was exceptionally quiet here.

Compared to the noise of the arrival hall upstairs, it was like two different worlds.

A black Audi A8L was parked quietly in the most conspicuous position, the car body reflecting a deep luster under the lights.

As Tang Song's figure gradually appeared.

The rear door of that Audi was slowly pushed open from the inside.

First to emerge was a slender lower leg wrapped in flesh-colored silk stockings, with a pair of simple yet high-quality black high heels on the foot, landing steadily on the ground.

"Tap."

A light sound, like striking Tang Song's heartstrings.

Chen Gong subconsciously stepped back a few steps, lowering her head and holding her breath.

Immediately after, a familiar yet strange figure walked out slowly.

Excellent bone structure, fair skin.

Waist like a willow, but shoulders and back straight like a pine.

With her movements, the champagne-colored cashmere coat slid down like water, revealing a high-end velvet dress underneath.

The waistline was cinched just right, perfectly outlining her 36-year-old mature, plump, yet slender figure without a hint of excess fat.

A head of black, smooth, medium-length hair was coiled at the back of her head, revealing a clean, full forehead and a beautiful, slender neck.

She exuded a mellow and charming air.

Their gazes collided in the air.

There seemed to be no excitement or surprise in her eyes, only gentle ripples.

Like a long-lost confidante, sister, or elder.

The two stared at each other like this for a moment.

She moved her slender beautiful legs wrapped in flesh-colored silk stockings and took the initiative to walk over, her pace slightly more hurried than usual.

The two figures stood opposite each other.

A beautiful yet restrained smile finally bloomed on Chairman Ouyang Chairman Ouyang Xianyue's face.

Looking at the figure in front of her that was even more handsome than in her memory, her gaze was slightly distracted for a moment.

Only then did she take the initiative to reach out her hand, "Tang Song, it's truly been a long time."

Her voice was clear, yet carried a gentle, hoarse quality after being tempered by time.

Very pleasant to hear.

Light and shadow were chaotic in his pupils.

Virtual and reality intersected at this moment.

That [Precision Queen] from the game appeared before his eyes so truly and vividly.

An indescribable palpitation, mixed with the joy of a long-lost reunion, surged up from the deepest part of his heart.

Tang Song opened his arms gently and gave her a sincere hug directly.

An extremely high-end fragrance, mixed with a faint white tea and deep woody notes, rushed into his nasal cavity instantly.

Soft and plump, warm and real.
