So Pure, So Flirtatious

Chapter 1685: Revenge

Logically, Yang Ming could also be regarded as a celebrity in Song Jiang Industry University. Li Boliang had no reason not to know of Yang Ming, but he was a busy man and thought highly of himself. He also dismissed those who were outstanding in the campus’ art festival. He felt that these people’s talents were useless, and they could not make a living in the future. Only his talents could be used to make a living in the future.

Moreover, he never even thought that someone who could drive a BMW to school would be a student! Besides, Yang Ming’s car usually did not appear in the School of Computer Science, so Li Boliang did not recognize Yang Ming who was in the car.

Li Boliang had once been in contact with Yang Ming and Zhou Jiajia to ask them to join the Computer Science Society, but he had long forgotten about it. He would not remember that boy’s appearance.

What’s more, Li Boliang’s attention had been on Zhou Jiajia. How could he bother to look at Yang Ming?

“What’s wrong? Boliang?” Jiang Naigang looked at the trembling Li Boliang who was joking around with him just a moment ago. He asked worriedly, “Are you unwell?”

(For Li Boliang and Jiang Naigang, read previous chapters. Li Boliang is the president of the school’s Computer Science Society. Jiang Naigang is Li Boliang’s roommate. Li Boliang once helped his father’s company to unlock an account’s encryption.)

“Zhou Jiajia… I saw Zhou Jiajia…” Li Boliang said gaspingly with red eyes.

“Zhou Jiajia?” Jiang Naigang was stunned, then he was a little inexplicable, “Still, you don’t need to be so excited, right?”

“She got off a man’s BMW! That is the car!” Li Boliang said. He pointed at Yang Ming’s BMW which was parked in front of the computer science teaching building not far from them.

“Really? Are you perhaps mistaken?” Jiang Naigang stared doubtfully at the lake-blue BMWX5. “That car is pretty good. He should not be an ordinary person… Are you sure that such a person would come to our school so swaggeringly to get a mistress?”

“This…” Li Boliang was also hesitant after hearing Jiang Naigang’s words! Indeed, this car’s license plate was too eye-catching. Any person who had a student as his mistress would remain low-key. How could he not be afraid of his colleagues and family finding out? He could only be bold if he weren’t married.

However, how many unmarried men could have a student as their mistress? Li Boliang was a little puzzled but then nodded firmly. “I saw correctly. Zhou Jiajia and that man were exchanging flirty glances. It is impossible that there is nothing between them!”

“This is a little complicated. Even if Zhou Jiajia is someone’s mistress, you can’t do anything about it!” Jiang Naigang frowned. “I know this. My dad also had a mistress before. They signed an agreement. If the woman breaches the contract, she won’t get a single dime. She might break it off with that person only if you give her more benefits! Otherwise, it will be difficult…”

“Zhou Jiajia is not such a girl. How could she be someone else’s mistress? There must be a problem here!” Li Boliang punched Yang Ming’s BMW in disbelief. His fist was not made of steel. Naturally, his punch could not affect the car, instead, his fist started paining.

“You’re right. There must be a reason for someone to become a mistress. If it’s not because of home circumstances, it must be because of their vanity. Just look at the character Haizhao in the drama “Dwelling Narrowness[1]”. She became a mistress to buy a house for her sister!” Jia Naigang explained to Li Boliang.

“What then?” Li Boliang renewed hope when he heard Jiang Naigang’s words.

“I think you should talk to Zhou Jiajia openly and honestly to see if she is hiding anything. It will be easy once you know the matter!” Jiang Naigang said. “If Zhou Jiajia’s family is short of money, it will depend on the amount! Although my dad is a company’s chairman and my pocket money can’t be said to be too little, it’s still not a lot. I can still afford to give you around eighty thousand or a hundred thousand, but I will have to discuss it with my dad if the amount is too big. I don’t know how it will turn out.”

In fact, Jiang Naigang had already decided that it would not be a problem for him even if it was a few hundred-thousand even though he said these words. If it came to that, he would just write up an IOU. After Li Boliang graduated, he would have to work for his father’s company obediently to pay off the debt. He could only use his skills and labor to compensate.

Jiang Naigang’s father asked Jiang Naigang to become good friends with Li Boliang so that Li Boliang would work in their company. Their company currently was lacking talent in computing.

However, Jiang Naigang couldn’t reveal all of this. He could only do so when the situation reached a certain point. Otherwise, it would seem that he had ulterior motives.

“Thank you, Naigang!” Li Boliang nodded appreciatively to Jiang Naigang who had helped him so much.

“This is nothing. We are buddies!” Jiang Naigang laughed. “However, maybe she doesn’t need money. Maybe the man has some information that could be used against Zhou Jiajia!”

“That’s true!” Li Boliang suddenly felt that Jiang Naigang’s words were reasonable. “If so, it will be easy to handle. As you said, since the man can have Zhou Jiajia as a mistress, he must be a successful person and must have a family! As long as we take a picture of that man and Zhou Jiajia together, we can use it to blackmail him. He would probably be afraid of this matter being exposed and give in inevitably!”

“I hope so!” Jiang Naigang thought, This possibility is too small. Do you think Zhou Jiajia is a fool? But he said calmly, “Now, what we should do is relax!”

“Relax? What do you mean?” Li Boliang was stunned and asked.

“For whatever reason, you are furious with that man now, right?” Jiang Naigang asked with a smile.

“Naturally! Do you even need to ask?” Li Boliang nodded.

“Let’s deflate his tires first!” Jiang Naigang said as he bent down, ready to deflate the car tires, “Follow my lead…”

It seemed that Jiang Naigang was familiar with this method of damage. He had done it before.

After the two of them quickly deflated all four tires, they quickly disappeared from the scene and continued to plan to talk to Zhou Jiajia.

……

Just when Yang Ming had just returned to Song Jiang, another big event happened in Jiangyan City!

The Mingjiang Escort Company’s vice-captain, Liu Xiaolei, and the Jiangyan Group’s vice president, Liu Zhenan, were quarreling!

Liu Xiaolei should be grateful to Liu Zhenan. It was under Liu Zhenan’s arrangement that his seriously ill father could be admitted to receive expensive treatment in a high-end hospital that he could not afford.

However, Liu Xiaolei had turned against Liu Zhenan! This left all employees of the Jiangyan Group scratching their heads. Everyone was at a loss listening to Liu Xiaolei’s roaring snarl in the conference room.

“What is going on with Liu Xiaolei?” gossiped Employee A to Employee B at the door of the conference room.

“Who knows. Maybe he noticed that Vice President Liu is kinder, so he wants more benefits?” guessed Employee B.

“Things don’t seem to be so simple!” Employee A said, “How about we watch the fun here?”

“This is not good. It’s working hours,” Employee B hesitated and said.

“What are you afraid of? Look over there. Manager XX of the XX department is also here. We’re just following the crowd,” said Employee A.

“Alright then… Let’s watch for a while. If something is wrong, we will immediately leave.” Employee B nodded.

Sure enough, since Employee A and Employee B stayed here, more and more employees began to crowd the conference room’s door.

Employee A was actually one of Liu Zhenan’s trusted confidants. His task was to persuade the company’s employees to watch. This was the effect that Liu Zhenan wanted.

He wanted everyone in the company to witness this incident. Then, if the witnesses spoke the words that were inappropriate for him to say, it would be a lot more convincing.

Chapter 1686: Implementing the Plan

Liu Zhenan looked at Employee A’s message on his phone. It notified him that there were enough people around the conference room’s door and he could execute the next step of the plan.

Liu Zhenan nodded to Liu Xiaolei, who was next to him, and signaled that he could start.

“Vice President Liu, what do you mean? I found a suitable kidney source, so why are you taking back your words?” Liu Xiaolei was normal just now, but he suddenly started yelling out like a provoked tiger.

“Comrade Liu Xiaolei, don’t get so emotional!” Liu Zhenan didn’t get angry but said gently, “The situation you said is illegal. We can’t agree to it!”

“Illegal? What illegal? The person who has the kidney said that it would cost five hundred thousand. As long as he is given five-hundred thousand, he will give the kidney to my dad. Vice President Liu, since you can spend tens of thousands of yuan a day to pay for my father’s medical bills, why can’t you give another half a million?” Liu Xiaolei exclaimed.

“It’s not that I can’t give it. It’s two different matters all together!” Liu Zhenan explained awkwardly, “We are a legal company. Buying and selling kidneys is illegal. How can we do such a thing? Captain Liu Xiaolei, it’s better to stay calm and wait for a legitimate kidney source. Once you find it, we will arrange the operation for your father as soon as possible!”

“Wait? What are you waiting for? Who knows how long the wait will be? Who knows if my father can survive or not!” Liu Xiaolei said emotionally, “Just give me half a million. I will be fully responsible for this matter. What happens in the future will not be related to the company. It will be my responsibility! How about it?”

“This…” Liu Zhenan pretended to hesitate and think, then he said, “I’m afraid it won’t work. Since I already know of this, I can’t pretend to not know anything. If I give you the money, it means that I’m enabling you to do illegal things. This will not work. If my grandfather knows about it, he will not support it.”

” Ha, okay! Vice President Liu, you are using Grandfather Liu, the chairman, to suppress me now? Before this, you pretentiously threw money at my face, but you can’t do it now! I think you are driving me into a corner!” Liu Xiaolei laughed bitterly.

“Liu Xiaolei, calm your emotions first!” Liu Zhenan secretly laughed, This Liu Xiaolei really has a talent for acting!

“Emotional? If the person lying in a hospital is your father, won’t you be emotional?” Liu Xiaolei slammed the table and yelled, “Stop this nonsense. Are you going to give me half a million today or not?”

“This… I can’t do it…” Liu Zhenan finally shook his head. “It is illegal. The company has its considerations. I hope you can understand!”

“Okay, okay! I understand, okay. I understand, but who can understand me?” Liu Xiaolei said “okay” three times, then suddenly opened the door to leave. He scared the people surrounding the conference room’s door. However, before they knew what was going on, Liu Xiaolei was gone.

Liu Zhenan came out with a gloomy and helpless appearance. He sighed as he watched Liu Xiaolei’s figure leave. He looked up at the people surrounding the conference room’s door. “You all aren’t working? What are you doing here?”

” Ah, Mr. Liu, we are going to work now!” Employee A said first and led everyone away.

However, on the way out, Employee A whispered, “I just want to say that this Liu Xiaolei really doesn’t know how to appreciate kindness. Does he think that the company belongs to his family and he can do whatever he wants? He talked openly about going to the black market with half a million yuan to buy a kidney. How could Vice President Liu agree to that? If other people know about this, they will definitely attack Vice President Liu and our company!”

“What you said makes sense!”Others also agreed with Employee A. This was often the case with people. When there was doubt and ambiguity, as long as someone speaks out, these people would immediately think their words were reasonable and become convinced.

“Yeah, I think Liu Xiaolei is trying to extort money. Vice President Liu is already kind to his father, but he still wants to do this. Ai, this person…” Another employee sighed.

Seeing that public opinion was heading in the right direction, Employee A continued to say, “However, if we consider Liu Xiaolei’s perspective, he is not wrong. After all, he is worried about his father’s life. If it is us, we might do the same!”

“Yeah, the way you look at problems will change if you take a different standpoint!” Everyone nodded.

“It’s just that I don’t know if Liu Xiaolei will let it be. Hopefully, he doesn’t come around every few days to cause trouble! That will affect the company’s image!” said Employee A. He just wanted to give people the impression that Liu Xiaolei would not let it be, and pave the way for future matters.

……

“Brother Nan, how did I do today?” Liu Xiaolei was sitting in a car returning to Song Jiang at this moment. Everyone in the car was his close friends and some of the people he was in cahoots with.

“Not bad. You can plan the next step!” Liu Zhenan said, “Please rest assured, there will be no problem with what I promised you!”

“That’s good!” Liu Xiaolei nodded, “Brother Nan, you can rest assured that I will perform my matters well!”

Liu Zhenan hung up and sneered at the corner of his mouth. Then, he called his sister, Liu Huamei again.

“Brother?” Liu Huamei still didn’t know what had just happened in Jiangyan City, so she answered the phone in surprise. She didn’t expect Liu Zhenan to call her.

“Huamei, Liu Xiaolei from your department came to the company to cause trouble just now,” said Liu Zhenan.

” Oh? Liu Xiaolei? Why was he there? Didn’t the Jiangyan Group already arranged to treat his father?” Liu Huamei asked with some surprise.

“It’s like this. Liu Xiaolei came just now and told me that he wanted me to buy a kidney from the black market for his father. However, I refused. So, he caused a huge racket,” Liu Zhenan said. “You also know that we are a legal company. How can we do that kind of thing? In the end, Liu Xiaolei became unhappy.”

“So, it’s like that.” Liu Huamei nodded. “Although Liu Xiaolei’s request is a bit excessive, it is reasonable.”

“Yeah. That’s why I’m calling you. After Liu Xiaolei returns, you should appease him and tell him that the headquarters will help solve his problem as soon as possible. Tell him not to worry!” said Liu Zhenan.

“Relax, I will enlighten and appease him.” Liu Huamei frowned. Liu Zhenan kindly made a phone call just to tell me this?

“En, so yeah. I still have things to do. Anyway, Liu Xiaolei is your employee. It’s inappropriate for me to say anything else!” Liu Zhenan chuckled. This time, I have already told you the matter in advance. If something goes wrong, it will have nothing to do with me. It’s your business now… Little sister, don’t blame me for not reminding you beforehand!

“Alright, then when he comes back, I will talk to him,” responded Liu Huamei.

Liu Huamei hung up the phone and frowned even more. What is Liu Zhenan’s intention? Did he make this phone call because he really cares about Liu Xiaolei?

However, Liu Huamei couldn’t think of any conspiracy or tactics that Liu Zhenan could have. She could only consider it as Liu Zhenan being afraid that Liu Xiaolei would continue to go to the headquarters to cause trouble. So he found a way to ensure that she would go and appease him.

Besides that, Liu Huamei couldn’t think of anything else.

“Brother Nan, this little bitch, Liu Huamei, didn’t think much about it, right?” Liu Jifei asked Liu Zhenan after he finished the phone call.

“No. No matter how clever she is, she can never figure out our plans!” Liu Zhenan sneered, “If she makes a big mistake at that time; hmph hmph; even the old man will be disappointed with her!”

“Naturally!” Liu Jifei said with his mouth, but he thought that he could also mess with Jing Xiaolu and Yang Ming this time. Then, they would not be able to run away!

Liu Zhenan was clear about Liu Jifei’s thoughts, but he didn’t say anything. After all, he could avenge Liu Jifei without affecting the overall situation. So, why not?
