Chapter 737 - 713:
Li Ruo, who was far away in the United States, had been feeling a twitch in her eyelid these past few days, as if she had a bad premonition. She had tried to call Ye Chen several times, fearing that something had happened to him, but everything seemed to be alright on Ye Chen’s end, which puzzled Li Ruo. If Ye Chen was fine, why did her eyelid keep twitching?
On a night at the end of May, although it was already midnight, Li Ruo was still quietly reviewing a business plan in her office when, suddenly, an urgent phone call rang out. She quickly answered, and to her surprise, it was from her distant cousin, Xingxing.
"Xingxing, what’s the matter?" Li Ruo asked, perplexed.
"Li... Mr. Li, I have some bad news for you, and please, oh please, don’t get angry after you hear it!" Xingxing stammered, unsure whether she should deliver the news or how to even start telling Li Ruo.
"You’re such a grown girl, why do you still hesitate when speaking? Just say it!" Li Ruo furrowed her brow.
"Okay, okay!" Xingxing immediately responded, "Tianya Group in Jianghuai City is about to be taken over. Someone schemed against Assistant Lin, who signed some documents, so this morning they came to make trouble!"
"What?!" Li Ruo was stunned and then immediately said, "Put Ziwen on the phone!"
The urgency of the situation triggered Li Ruo’s recent flickering eyelid premonitions. She couldn’t help thinking that perhaps the issues were related to Tianya’s recent troubles. Li Ruo became somewhat agitated, urgently requesting Lin Ziwen to come to the phone. On the other end, she heard the sobbing voice of Lin Ziwen: "Mr. Li, I’ve let you down. I was framed, and... and Tianya Group is about to be taken away!"
"What... what on earth happened?" Li Ruo was shocked. She could dismiss the words of Milking Girl Xingxing, but she couldn’t disregard those of Lin Ziwen, who had been by her side for so many years. Grinding his teeth, Lin Ziwen said, "You need to come back quickly. Some things can’t be explained in just a moment."
"Understood, I will be right there!" Li Ruo nodded immediately.
