Chapter 16

Looking at the time, it was almost time to get off work. She left the office without hesitation and told Li Xiang, “I have something to do and I need to go home first. Take care of it here. Call me if anything happens.”

“Got it, boss. Don’t be too anxious.” Li Xiang said somewhat hesitantly, presumably knowing.

“Don’t worry, it won’t be so easy to be knocked down.” Xiao Luobing said as she rushed out of the office area.

When she got home, she rushed straight to the study.

Wang Xiaoman and Xia Luoxin could only watch as she was the only one who could directly enter the house.

When they arrived at the study room, Xia Yan was indeed sitting behind the desk with a dispirited expression.

“Dad, what happened?” She stood at the table and asked.

“It’s all my fault. I’m too eager for quick results and quick benefits. I didn’t understand the situation, so I invested money. There’s no way to develop that piece of land right now. There’s a deficit of 100 million yuan. The Xia Clan is in danger this time.” Xia Yan weakly stated.

“What should we do to solve this problem?” Xia Luobing asked. She had only learned how to solve cases for so many years, so she basically didn’t understand what was going on in the mall.

“I can only fill in the loopholes and give me a few months to recover the other funds. Otherwise, according to the current situation, the Xia clan can only go bankrupt with debts.” Xia Yan said calmly, but his eyes were already wet.

This was the work of two generations of the Xia Clan. How could they lose like this?

Hearing this, Xia Luobing sighed. How could anyone be willing to pay for a company that was on the verge of bankruptcy? As for the acquisition, who would buy a company that was in debt? Moreover, there weren’t many companies with such financial resources. Even a powerful group might not be interested in the Xia family.

It could be said that this time, the Xia Clan was truly worrying.

At this time, Xia Luobing’s phone suddenly rang. She glanced at it and found that it was Feng Shuo .

“What is it?” She picked up the phone and said.

“I’m downstairs. Come down and have dinner.” As Feng Shuo spoke, afraid that Xia Luobing would refuse, he added, “I might have a way to deal with your family’s financial crisis.”

Xiao Luobing thought for a moment and said, “Alright.”

He went downstairs and saw Feng Shuo standing beside the car, looking at him with a smile.

“Why are you discharged?” She asked, as if it wasn’t time yet.

“I applied for early discharge. Anyway, it’s ready. Come on, get in the car and I’ll take you to dinner.” Feng Shuo opened the passenger door for her, looking very gentlemanly.

Xia Luobing knew that he couldn’t refuse, so he didn’t say anything.

“Yunqi Huo didn’t make things difficult for you at the shareholders’ meeting, did he?” In the car, in order to ease the atmosphere, she asked.

“Not really. I have officially entered the Huo Corporation and am currently the general manager.” Feng Shuo said with a complicated expression.

Xia Luobing cried out in surprise, “Huo Yunqi treats you so well?”

“It’s his and my father’s intention. I’ve been home for a few days.” Feng Shuo replied indifferently.

The car moved forward and soon arrived at the restaurant that Feng Shuo had chosen. After parking the car, Xia Luobing discovered that it was a couple-themed restaurant. When he walked in, he discovered that it was more interesting. This place was not big. The pink lights were dim, but the arrangement was very exquisite. In the quiet environment, there was soothing music that made people feel very emotional.

Feng Shuo brought her to a table by the window. Her favorite steak was already set on the table. The warm and romantic candles were quietly burning, making her unconsciously nervous.

As soon as she entered, she felt that she did not fit in with this place, and her police uniform was a little awkward to wear.

“Just eat whatever you want. Don’t do this.” Xiao Luobing whispered. She said that she couldn’t stand this kind of emotion. Moreover, the two of them weren’t lovers. She always felt awkward.

“Girls like romance, don’t they?” Feng Shuo smiled gently. His gentle face was even more charming under the candlelight. In addition to his handsome suit, any girl would probably go crazy for it.

“Alright, then let’s eat.” Xiao Luobing was still a little unnatural.

Feng Shuo gently poured red wine for her.

“I’m going to the bathroom. You eat first.” Xiao Luobing said after eating some.

Feng Shuo nodded.

When Xiao Luobing came out of the bathroom and was washing her hands, a familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind her, “You can meet her even if you eat. Do you think this is fate?”

It was Huo Yunqi’s voice.

She turned around and saw Huo Yunqi’s tall figure standing behind her. Her phoenix eyes narrowed as she looked at her prey. She couldn’t help but tremble.

Huo Yunqi took a step forward and placed his hands on the edge of the sink, forming a sealed space that was enclosing Xiao Luobing’s ice.

“What do you want?” Xia Luobing looked at the man’s devilish gaze and immediately felt that he was in danger.

No matter what kind of mission she was on, it had never happened before. It made her nervous.

“I haven’t seen you for a long time. I’ve missed you. Let’s have a chat.” Huo Yunqi leaned forward, forcing her to shrink back.

“Why are you chatting like this? Let go of me, or I’ll make a move.” Xia Luobing turned his head, because there was no way to avoid it. If he faced it head-on, he would kiss it.

At this moment, Huo Yunqi’s lips were only a centimeter away from her profile, and her position was very ambiguous.

“It hurts to attack. Let’s do it.” Huo Yunqi laughed and was about to kiss her earlobe.
