Chapter 693: 689. Call the Police? (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Tickets)

~7 min read 1,306 words

At this moment, many people's gazes turned over, their eyes filled with astonishment; to resort to violence on such an occasion?

Who is it!

So bold!

Meika had also not walked far, and seeing this scene, she couldn't help but be stunned for a moment; what was going on?

Fu Meiting was stunned for a moment after being pointed at and scolded by Siyan, but she soon sneered; in her view, Siyan was finished.

On an occasion like this, let alone Siyan, even if Meika had struck someone, she would likely be marked by others.

Especially by Zhao Lifeng.

This was a banquet hosted by Zhao Lifeng, and it was the first one he had held since arriving in the United States; it concerned his connections and his reputation.

Regardless of the final outcome, in Fu Meiting's view, Siyan would definitely not have a good end.

And at this moment, Zhao Lifeng had indeed noticed this side, his brows furrowing slightly as he walked over.

"Mr. Zhao, this woman has gone crazy," Fulikesi said indignantly, pointing at Siyan.

Siyan also sneered without replying; at this moment, her heart was filled with incomparable anger.

Originally, she had no particular feelings toward Fu Meiting; even if this person had spoken sharply at the airport before, it was nothing, and she didn't want to pursue such matters, as they were, after all, old classmates.

But Fu Meiting had become more excessive each time, and especially since Fulikesi was no good either, they had disgusted her.

Zhao Lifeng looked at Siyan, then at Fulikesi, and just as he was about to speak, Meika on the side said, "Mr. Zhao, I don't know what the situation is with this lady, but she directly struck Fulikesi's wife; such behavior is very bad."

She knew that Liu Lu seemed to have some background, but no matter how much background she had, it could not compare to their company's major shareholder, Zhanfu Investment.

Although Fulikesi was only a Manager at Zhanfu Investment and his position was not very high, it was enough for a company like theirs, and doing him a favor would also be beneficial for their company.

The people from Zhanfu Investment had also come today, and seeing this scene, they felt somewhat annoyed; they were annoyed that Fulikesi had embarrassed them, and also annoyed that someone would slap the face of Zhanfu at such a time.

Although they did not know what had happened, at this moment, Fulikesi was an employee of their Zhanfu, and since he had been struck, it meant that Zhanfu's face had been lost.

"Mr. Zhao, I don't know how such a person managed to sneak in; I suggest calling the police to handle it," the person from Zhanfu said directly.

Call the police?

Hearing this, the look in Fu Meiting's eyes became even more triumphant; if the police were called, Siyan would definitely be finished.

Here in the United States, with so many big shots gathered, it could be said that they could manufacture trouble for you even if there was none.

Zhao Lifeng did not rush to speak, but quietly listened to them finish before looking at Siyan and saying, "Miss Zhang, have you encountered any trouble here?"

As soon as these words were spoken, many people in the room were somewhat surprised, and even more were taken aback.

What kind of attitude was this from Zhao Lifeng?

He seemed to know this woman, and his attitude was one of equality.

Before Siyan could speak, Liu Lu stood out; as Siyan's sister-in-law, she needed to stand in front of Siyan in certain matters; this was what she ought to do.

"Mr. Zhao, they are the ones who are bullying us too much, harassing us incessantly; furthermore, I have already told my father-in-law, so if you want to call the police, please wait a moment," Liu Lu said, feigning toughness.

At this moment, this appearance of hers was truly an act; she felt very hollow inside.

However, at this time, she needed to stand in front of Siyan; even if she couldn't block anything for her, at the very least she had to face it with her.

Siyan looked at her sister-in-law, and for a moment, it was as if she were meeting her for the first time.

Siyan knew her sister-in-law's personality; it was the typical personality of a refined lady, one who would absolutely never argue if it could be avoided.

When encountering trouble, she mostly chose to avoid it.

Just like the incident with Sicheng's ex-girlfriend last time; if her personality had been a bit more fiery, she might have started a fight right then and there.

Even if her personality had been slightly stronger, she would have chosen to question or open up and explain things clearly.

But what did Liu Lu choose to do?

She chose to escape, chose to bear it all herself; although it ended in a misunderstanding, this also showed her character.

It was only recently, because of the hospital matter, that she had changed slightly, but deep down, she had not changed.

"Mr. Zhao, don't listen to their nonsense; we just helped them and negotiated a deal for them, but who knew they would turn around and hit someone; I don't know what kind of madness they have," Fulikesi said, a bad premonition rising in his heart as he hurriedly began to quibble.

Zhao Lifeng acted as if he hadn't heard him, and said with a bitter smile, "Mrs. Liu, how could I call the police? You are truly wronging me."

If he dared to call the police, Zhao Lifeng believed that Zhang Ran would absolutely not let him off, and the promises made previously would vanish into thin air.

From the discussion that day, it could be seen that Zhang Ran was a person who valued relationships; if Zhao Lifeng dared to send his daughter-in-law to prison, and for no reason at all, then if Zhang Ran could let Zhao Lifeng have an easy time, he wouldn't be Zhang Ran.

Hearing him say this, Liu Lu relaxed slightly, and her originally tense mood eased a little.

"Can you tell me some of the specific circumstances?" Zhao Lifeng asked in a gentle tone.

At this moment, everyone realized something was wrong; why was Zhao Lifeng's attitude like this?

The current Zhao Lifeng, after the changes of this past year, had seen his net worth and status change drastically.

Not to mention that he had unified the Huaxia online shopping market, just the fact that Fengli Finance had reached an agreement with the state due to Zhang Ran and launched a new financing plan had made him famous for a time.

Now, who would dare to offend him for no reason?

And yet, the current Zhao Lifeng was being so polite to these two unknown women, which left people feeling baffled for a moment.

Siyan thought for a moment and said in a deep voice, "Fulikesi intended to act improperly toward a friend of my father."

She didn't say any extra words, nor did she reveal Lin Mei's identity; although that would certainly make Fulikesi's situation even worse, it would also make things uncomfortable for Lin Mei.

Even if such matters didn't seem like much here in Europe and America, Lin Mei was, after all, Chinese, and she would still feel disgusted by such things.

Siyan's words made Zhao Lifeng feel a bit alarmed; this guy really knew how to cause trouble, directly provoking Zhang Ran.

Just at this moment, the people from Zhanfu Investment also seemed to feel that something was wrong, and asked with a frown, "Mr. Zhao?"

Zhao Lifeng glanced at them, his eyes filled with dissatisfaction; this person from Zhanfu Investment was a bit too overbearing, which had long since made Zhao Lifeng dissatisfied.
