Chapter 2832

~7 min read 1,236 words

Liu Anrong still wore a faint smile on her face: "As long as Young Master Hui is here, the Shen Wenli case encountering obstacles is really no big deal.

However, I feel there's no need to insist on sending Shen Wenli in; after all, we're after money, and now someone else has intervened, so to avoid complications, it's better to talk to Shen Wenli. Freedom and shares—any normal person knows how to choose."

"I think Anrong makes a lot of sense." Gao Jiang, about thirty, thin and tall, spoke with a squinting smile, but the smile didn't reach his eyes, giving the impression of a sinister person with ill intentions: "Young Master Hui, actually I've wanted to say this for a while—we want Bai Jian Pharmaceuticals, there's no need to drag this out; it's not beneficial to us."

Wu Hui pondered for a moment, then nodded slightly: "What you say makes sense; I'll notify Zhuo Ning to have him meet Shen Wenli. If he's sensible, we can give him a chance. But if he's not sensible, then there's nothing we can do—let him stay inside for ten or twenty years."

Upon hearing Wu Hui's words, Liu Anrong lowered her head slightly, the corner of her mouth twitching into an almost imperceptible sneer, but her tone was very gentle, pleasant to hear: "I've made plans to go shopping with a friend; it's about time, you all chat, I'll leave first."

"Anrong!" Liu Anrong was about to leave, Wu Hui couldn't help but furrow his brow: "Who did you make plans with? Do you have time tonight to have dinner together?"

"I'm not sure either; we'll see when the time comes." Liu Anrong didn't say who she had plans with, walked to the bar, picked up the small bag placed there, then turned and waved her hand: "You all enjoy yourselves, I'm leaving."

Watching Liu Anrong's figure disappear at the stairwell, Gao Jiang burst out laughing, though his smile looked fake: "Young Master Hui, it seems if you want to win the beauty, the task is heavy and the road is long."

A flash of hostility appeared in Wu Hui's eyes, then he laughed: "Women, being a bit tsundere is quite normal. As the saying goes, utmost sincerity moves even metal and stone—I believe one day she will feel my love."

"I didn't expect that!" Gao Jiang laughed heartily: "Young Master Hui is still a sentimental fool."

Wu Hui wore a bitter smile: "Let him be a sentimental fool—who made me like her?"

"Alright!" Gao Jiang tilted his head back and drained the wine in his cup: "I'm leaving too, Young Master Hui, hurry up and let Zhuo Ning go talk to Shen Wenli. Since last night, my heart has felt uneasy, as if something bad is going to happen, so don't drag this out—hurry up and get the remaining shares in hand."

"Hope so!" Bai Shanyu said with a smile: "Shen Wenli can't stir up any waves; completely taking over Bai Jian Pharmaceuticals is just a matter of time—what's there to worry about?"

"Hope so!" Gao Jiang adjusted his suit collar: "I'm leaving; contact me if anything comes up."

This gathering was initiated by Wu Hui, who originally just wanted a private date with Liu Anrong, but she didn't agree, so he called Gao Jiang and the others out. Now Liu Anrong has left, Gao Jiang has left, and Wu Hui feels a bit bored: "Let's call it a day, then."

After leaving the club, Liu Anrong entered a hair salon with an area of over two hundred square meters, luxuriously decorated; inside, whether staff or hairdressers, all wore uniform attire, looking very high-end.

"Rong sister!"

"Rong sister!"

"Boss Liu is here!"

"Rong sister!"

"Rong sister, please give me some advice—how does this hair color look on me?"

Liu Anrong pushed the door open and entered; whether staff or hairdresser, including familiar customers, all greeted her in turn.

Liu Anrong smiled and nodded in response, then walked toward the customer getting her hair dyed—a rather plump middle-aged woman.

"Li sister, dyeing your hair yellow doesn't look good; try burgundy, but don't dye it all over—that would be too glaring; just dye the tips."

The plump woman flicked her hair: "Burgundy, will it really look good?"

"Don't worry; if you don't like it, you can dye it back—no charge." Liu Anrong stood behind the plump woman, ruffling her hair: "Li sister, your hair maintenance is still okay."

The plump woman nodded: "Alright, then let's try it."

"Burgundy has just become popular overseas; the dye is available domestically too—I use imported products." Liu Anrong placed both hands on the plump woman's shoulders, then turned and called out: "Xiao Hong, Li sister is dyeing burgundy—you come prepare the dye."

"Okay!" A girl quickly responded.

At that moment, a girl about twenty-three or twenty-four, dressed very fashionably, walked over: "My Young Lady Liu, why did you take so long to come? I've been waiting for you for ages."

Liu Anrong smiled: "You asked me to come at two; it's still ten minutes away—you came too early."

The fashionable woman waved her hand carelessly: "Oh, don't worry about these little things—hurry up and come see that outfit with me; if we're late, someone might buy it."

"Who sells clothes just one piece?" Liu Anrong smiled helplessly: "I haven't eaten lunch yet, I'm almost starving; let me make a phone call first, then go eat. After eating, we'll go look at clothes."

"Okay, okay!" The fashionable woman especially listlessly came to the lounge area, plopped down on the sofa, and idly picked up a newspaper to read.

Liu Anrong came to the inside of the bar, picked up the phone inside, and dialed a string of numbers, but no one answered. Then she changed the number and dialed again—this time the call connected quickly.

"I'm Ye Zhen; who is this?"

"Zhen sister!" Liu Anrong said with a smile: "I'm Anrong!"

"Liu girl!" Ye Zhen let out a light laugh: "What's up?"

Liu Anrong looked up, then lowered her voice to ask: "Zhen sister, the Shen Wenli case has been stalled by someone—was it you who did it?"

"Mm!" Ye Zhen didn't hide it: "I had someone handle it."

Liu Anrong laughed: "Wu Hui and them haven't figured it out yet—I knew it was you."

Ye Zhen said: "You called me—are they up to something again?"

"Nothing much!" Liu Anrong said: "Just now I met with Wu Hui and them; I told them to drag things out, to talk to Shen Wenli and quickly get the shares in hand, to secure the bag."

Ye Zhen asked curiously: "Did they agree?"

"Well, sort of agreed." Liu Anrong repeated Wu Hui's words: "Wu Hui is such a fool, so arrogant—that's also why I look down on him. Doing business without that talent? He should just go work an honest job—I could still stand to look at him a bit more."

Ye Zhen asked gossipy: "Do you really have no feelings for Wu Hui at all?"

"Pah!" Liu Anrong spat, completely abandoning her ladylike image: "If it weren't for his father, Wu Hui would be nothing."

Ye Zhen laughed again: "Let me tell you some good news—Zhou Andong has already arrived in Yangcheng, and I'll be going there tomorrow too."

"Ah?" Liu Anrong hurriedly asked: "Which hotel is he staying at? I want to go see him."
