Zhan Zhicheng was shamelessly persistent.
Zhan Xiaojun's gaze was sharp as a knife. "Zhan Zhicheng, you want to use me to see Ning Yecheng? Fine. You can go right now."
She wanted Ning Yecheng to flirt with death.
Did he think Ning Yecheng was someone he could use as he pleased?
A gleam flashed in Zhan Zhicheng's eyes. Without hesitation, he said, "Alright, I'll go now. I know you doubt your father's intentions, but you and your mother wait at home. I will definitely get Ning Yecheng to give you a satisfactory answer."
He didn't need Zhan Xiaojun and Lin Ya to see him out; he left quickly and in a hurry.
Zhan Zhicheng was truly in a hurry now. If he didn't find a solution, he would really never return to the Zhan Corporation!
Seeing Zhan Zhicheng leave, Zhan Xiaojun explained the whole story to Lin Ya.
Only then did Lin Ya understand that Zhan Zhicheng had used her.
But…
"Xiaojun, you… how do you know acupuncture?"
Zhan Xiaojun had already prepared her excuse. "Remember the old Chinese doctor in the village? I used to help him tidy his yard when I was little. He taught me. Then, for the past year or so, I've also privately studied with a master at a Chinese medicine clinic and read books on my own."
"Ah, I remember. You did like to go to Grandpa Wang's house when you were little. You cried for a long time when the old man passed away," Lin Ya suddenly recalled.
She should trust Xiaojun.
Xiaojun was her daughter!
Why did she believe Zhan Zhicheng when he slandered Xiaojun?
And she was worried about her?
Zhan Xiaojun took out a card. "Mom, this is the money I earned from Ning Yecheng. Two million. You take this two million first."
"Wh—what? Two million?" Lin Ya was shocked.
"The money will keep increasing in the future. I have some money on hand that I'm investing. I'll slowly give it all to Mom later," Zhan Xiaojun said.
Lin Ya quickly shook her head. "Mom still has the compensation money from Zhan Zhicheng last time. I don't need money. Xiaojun, you keep it all for yourself. You can open a shop you like later, or pursue your career. Mom doesn't need you to worry. And your uncle, he's getting along well with the girl he's dating now, so you don't need to worry about him either. Taking care of yourself is the most important thing. Don't worry, after today's incident, no matter what others say, Mom will only believe you and no one else."
Zhan Xiaojun smiled. "Do I need to contact the employer and have him prove it to Mom?"
"No, no, no, don't let people laugh," Lin Ya quickly waved her hand.
She suddenly thought of Zhan Zhicheng. "Zhan Zhicheng going to see your employer, will it cause you trouble? Do you want to chase after him and stop him?"
She became even more certain that no matter how sincerely Zhan Zhicheng apologized or begged, his fundamental nature would not change.
He had always been an extremely selfish person!
He would resort to any means to achieve his goals.
Zhan Xiaojun didn't care at all. "No need to stop him if he wants to go to his death. My employer is not someone to be trifled with."
"That's good. I've been busy all morning, and I even missed breakfast. Mom will make you breakfast now. You wait!" Lin Ya wiped her face, regretting that Zhan Zhicheng had tricked her again, but she hadn't forgotten the most important thing.
Making breakfast for Xiaojun!
…
Ning Corporation.
It was just the start of the workday.
People were coming and going.
Nearly a thousand people entered the building.
There was identity verification at the entrance.
Zhan Zhicheng didn't rush in. He stood at the entrance, waiting for those going to work to enter first before he walked over.
After explaining his purpose to the security guard, he went to the front desk.
"I want to see President Ning."
The receptionist looked at Zhan Zhicheng. "Do you have an appointment?"
Zhan Zhicheng frowned, putting on an arrogant demeanor. "I don't have an appointment with your President Ning, but you can tell him I am Zhan Zhicheng, Zhan Xiaojun's father. I'm here to discuss matters between the two of them."
After all, he was Ning Yecheng's future father-in-law.
Ning Yecheng would surely give him some face.
The receptionist knew Zhan Xiaojun, so her expression became cautious.
She called Liu Ning.
"Assistant Liu, Miss Zhan's father wants to see President Ning. I wonder if President Ning has time now?"
Liu Ning raised an eyebrow. "Miss Zhan's father?"
Zhan Zhicheng?
What was this man up to?
"Wait a moment, I'll get back to you. Have him wait for now," Liu Ning replied.
"Yes."
The receptionist asked Zhan Zhicheng to wait in the adjacent waiting area for a moment.
Zhan Zhicheng was a little displeased.
At this time, Liu Ning informed Ning Yecheng about Zhan Zhicheng's visit to the corporation.
Ning Yecheng had just received a WeChat message from Zhan Xiaojun.
He smirked, his eyes cold. "It seems some people have been whipped quite thoroughly."
Liu Ning understood instantly. "Alright, I understand. I'll handle this now."
"Go ahead."
"Yes."
…
Zhan Zhicheng, whose patience had almost run out, returned to the front desk.
"When will your President Ning be able to see me?"
The receptionist had just received a call from Liu Ning and knew exactly what to do now.
She placated him. "I'm sorry, President Ning is busy. Please wait a little longer."
She knew very well that President Ning would definitely not come.
Assistant Liu had said to keep him waiting until he came down.
Zhan Zhicheng's face turned completely dark.
He never expected Ning Yecheng to be so disrespectful.
He had been made to wait downstairs for an hour!
He could only continue to wait in the waiting area with a dark expression.
Another hour passed.
Liu Ning finally emerged from the elevator.
When the receptionist saw Liu Ning coming out of the elevator, she breathed a sigh of relief. That Zhan Zhicheng was really putting on airs! He would get angry if you said a few words to him.
Having worked at Ning Corporation for so many years, she had never met anyone who put on such airs.
Did he even know his own worth?
She knew many companies in Yancheng, so she knew that Zhan Zhicheng was no longer the chairman of the Zhan Corporation, and his father-daughter relationship with Miss Zhan was not good. Now, he was trying to use Miss Zhan's connection to boss Ning Yecheng around.
Was he still dreaming from last night?
Liu Ning walked out of the elevator and a few steps later saw Zhan Zhicheng waiting in the lounge area.
He raised his hand and touched the corner of his mouth.
Shameless old fool.
Everything about him, including his name, only the character "Zhan" was pleasing to the eye.
He strode up to Zhan Zhicheng. "Zhan Zhicheng?"
Hearing his name called directly by a stranger, Zhan Zhicheng knitted his brows. "You know me?"
He used to appear in some interviews. In Yancheng, it was normal for many people to recognize him.
However, the young man in front of him was too impolite.
"Who gave you the courage to come to Ning Corporation?" Liu Ning asked with a cold sneer.
Zhan Zhicheng's expression changed. "Who are you?"
He didn't remember meeting this young man before, nor did he remember having any grudges.
Why was he so rude from the start?
"I am President Ning's special assistant. You've been in Yancheng for more than a decade, don't you understand some of Yancheng's rules?" Liu Ning narrowed his eyes and asked sternly.
