Chapter 56 - Apologizing in Person

Li was once a champion of free combat. His movements were swift and fierce.

Before the strange man could react, his body was already under his control. His entire face was pressed against the wall, unable to move. A hint of panic flashed across Qu Qi’s eyes. She tried her best to maintain a calm tone as she asked, “CEO Shang, what are you doing?”

Shang Yan pushed his wheelchair to the front of the strange man. His eyes were filled with a cold and threatening look as he twirled the ring on his ring finger.

“According to my wife, the renovation workers in your shop once accidentally threw something at her and she almost lost her life!”

“Which construction and renovation company? Which workers did it? Do they have a work permit? You should know about it, right?”

Shang Yan said slowly, his body emitting a powerful aura.

“According to the law, illegal high-altitude operations require the employer and the employees to bear joint and several responsibilities. Physical evidence and witness evidence will be found soon. I’m afraid you won’t be able to avoid going to prison for a few years!”

Shang Yan was the ruler of the business world. His eyes could see through what kind of person the other party was, and he could accurately determine what he needed to do to make the other party compromise in the shortest time and give them the answer he wanted.

Sure enough, the shop owner’s legs trembled when he heard Shang Yan’s threat. He pointed at Qu Qi and said, “It wasn’t me. She asked the workers to throw it!”

“Moreover, it was Miss Qu who asked me to find a way to cause some trouble for the owner of the Chinese medical center opposite, so that they couldn’t open for business!”

The shop owner seemed to be afraid that Shang Yan would not believe him. He struggled to point at his pocket and said, “I have her bank transfer record in my phone! She gave me 100,000 yuan to get the renovation workers to pretend that they made a mistake to scare the boss.”

Shang Yan’s eyes were cold as he turned to look at Qu Qi. He asked Li to temporarily hand the shop owner over to the bodyguards outside.

Qu Qi’s eyes darted around as she hid behind Qu Zhen. She swallowed her saliva guiltily and stammered, “He’s talking nonsense!”

“This is slander! He’s definitely trying to shift the blame onto me!”

Shang Yan’s thin lips curled into a sharp and cold arc as he frowned, “Slander? Shifting the blame? I’ll get Li to investigate the bank transfer. If the evidence is conclusive, I’ll report it to the police…” “Shang Yan! Qu Qi’s personality is extreme. She’s very impulsive and does stupid things.”

Qu Zhen felt Qu Qi’s tight grip on her sleeve. She stood up helplessly and pleaded on her behalf, “I’ll definitely teach her a lesson. Can you let her off this time on my account? If this matter is brought to the police, it won’t be good for Xiao.”

Shang Yan’s pupils trembled slightly when he heard Qu Xiao’s name.

He recalled Qu Xiao’s disappointed look when she left and his heart ached. Was she right to be upset just now?

Shang Yan said indifferently, “Qu Zhen, this is the last time I’ll do something on your account. If there’s a next time, I won’t be lenient!”

When Qu Zhen heard his words, her expression froze for a moment, and then she nodded slightly to thank him.

“But she must apologize to Qu Xiao and get Qu Xiao’s forgiveness…”

Shang Yan suddenly changed the topic and proposed a condition. Qu Qi immediately retorted unhappily, “On what basis?” The next second, Qu Qi saw Shang Yan’s angry eyes and was so frightened that she did not dare to say anything. Qu Zhen held Qu Qi’s elbow and forced a smile. “Let’s go find Xiao now. I’ll keep an eye on Qu Qi and make sure she apologizes to Qu Xiao.”

In the bustling entertainment district of the city, Qu Xiao took a taxi and arrived at the busiest singles bar.

She sat alone at the bar counter, drinking heavy alcohol with a gloomy face. Her beautiful and charming face became even more attractive under the flashing lights, attracting many men to strike up a conversation with her.

Shang Yan kept calling Qu Xiao and she hung up again and again, secretly keeping track of the number of times he called her.

When she hung up the twelfth call, Qu Zhen had just arrived in front of her with Qu Qi.

“Xiao, Qu Qi was in the wrong today. I’m here to get her to apologize to you.” Qu Zhen winked at Qu Qi, gesturing for her to bow and apologize.

Qu Qi was indignant as she stuck the tip of her tongue against her teeth. She stared at the side of Qu Xiao’s face contemptuously and said, “Are you really that useless that you always need men to stand up for you?”

“Do you really think that Shang Yan helps you because he really loves you? Stop dreaming!”

“If you two weren’t married, he wouldn’t have bothered to care about you! Everything Shang Yan did was because of your status as husband and wife!”

Dong!

Qu Xiao slammed the glass of wine on the bar counter and turned around to stare at Qu Qi. “Say that again?”n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
