Chapter 92 - Hope to be forgiven
For as long as Zhan Lichuan still lived, he was still in control of the entire Op Corporates. And as his legal wife who also had his protection, this woman was in a lofty position that was second only to the emperor of the Op Corporates Kingdom.
“Qianqian, I’m so sorry. I assumed that it was just a small role that wouldn’t matter to you. I did not take it to heart, and now my incompetent decision has harmed you. Third brother was right. I was not mature enough to handle a situation such as this, and I couldn’t think of a better solution. I hope that you will be able to forgive me.”
Jing Qian gave a warm smile upon seeing that Zhan Yihe’s attitude had taken a drastic turn.
She had seen tonnes of black-hearted white lotuses like her.
For someone like Zhan Yihe, profit was everything. She may seem warm and full of sunshine now, but if you met her again in the future, she could still stab you with a cold, sharp knife. If that didn’t kill you, she would still be nice to you if your existence benefitted her.
For these types of people, as long as it wasn’t life or death, they would still let bygones be bygones.
“No worries. It’s only worth a billion after all. Director Yi, you shouldn’t bother yourself with such trivial matters.”
Zhan Yihe was completely speechless.
Now she was saying that this was only a trivial matter worth 1 billion? Why hadn’t she thought of it this way when they couldn’t come to an agreement before this?!
What a petty person! Such an embarrassment!
“I’ll be waiting for the good news then, Director Yi. Now, if you’ll excuse me.”
With that said, she ignored the awful-looking Director He and Una, who were still inside Zhan Yihe’s office. She twisted her thin waist, which should have belonged to a villain, and confidently walked out of the office.
As soon as she walked out, the door of the office opposite her pushed open.
Zhan Yuheng had noticed that Jing Qian was in Zhan Yihe’s office via the conference call just now. He was just about to look for Zhan Yihe, with a grim look on his face.
However, as soon as he walked out, he ran into Jing Qian.
“Qianqian.”
Jing Qian was just passing through the front desk where the head secretary was seated. When she heard her name, she turned around and smiled at him. “Big brother, your conference call is over now?”
“It wasn’t a conference call. I just had to deal with a few matters with the workers here. Why didn’t you come look for me instead of Zhan Yihe?”
When the head secretary heard how Jing Qian had addressed Zhan Yuheng and also saw that Zhan Yuheng treated Jing Qian as if she were a priceless treasure, her face turned black and looked at Jing Qian with a pleading look in her eyes.
Had she known that Jing Qian was Zhan Yuheng’s younger sister, she would have never stopped her.
In fact, she had already begun regretting it when she had seen Zhan Yihe inviting Jing Qian into her office. She regretted it so badly that even her guts felt regretful.
Jing Qian glanced at the head secretary.
The woman had good features and her body was above average. She would definitely score more than an 85, as she was even more beautiful than Zhan Yihe. Along with her temperament, it was obvious that she didn’t come from an ordinary family. At the very least, her family was definitely one with a good background and support. Therefore, with all this combined, she did have a chance of dating Zhan Yuheng.
But…
Since this woman decided to play the villain, there was no reason for her to play nice. She was never the kind who retaliated evil with kindness.
She completely ignored the woman’s pleading eyes and said, “I did come looking for you, but your head secretary didn’t let me in since I hadn’t made a prior appointment.”
Zhan Yuheng obviously knew about what these women were thinking.
Previously, when Zhan Lichuan was still healthy and completely able-bodied, their gazes would always be on him. However, he was an upright man, and once he noticed that they were having these thoughts, they would be fired almost immediately. But now that he had turned into a quadriplegic, they finally remembered about his older brother. Since Zhan Yuheng was also more lenient toward them, these women became worse.
“So, you didn’t let her in. Why didn’t you come and report this to me yourself?” Zhan Yuheng asked with a cold look on his face.
