Liang Lu was picked up by an ambulance and taken to the hospital, with Tan Rou accompanying her. They had originally planned to go out for dinner, but that was no longer possible.
After sending Tan Rou and Liang Lu to the hospital, Zhuang Liu left. He had promised Tan Rou to find Zhou Xing for Liang Lu, so he had to hurry to Huayuan Building to prevent Zhou Xing from escaping after hearing any rumors.
The doctor examined Liang Lu and initially diagnosed her with a slight concussion, so she needed to be hospitalized for observation for a few days. Tan Rou could not stay with Liang Lu as she had a lot of business to take care of and didnât have the time to accompany her.
However, she couldnât leave Liang Lu alone in the hospital and Lu Qing couldnât get back in time, so Tan Rou had no choice but to find someone else to take care of Liang Lu. There were plenty of attendants in the hospital, so she hired one for Liang Lu.
Meanwhile, Zhuang Liu had already entered the Huayuan Building. As this was a task given to him by Tan Rou, he had to handle it personally.
Xiao Mo said, âHead of the Zhuang family, let us handle this matter. Our people have been around the building all the time, keeping an eye on things; they wonât let Zhou Xing get away. You should go back to Miss Rou.â
Zhuang Liu replied, âSince I promised Tan Rou to resolve this matter, I must see Zhou Xing in person. Heâs a very cautious and intelligent man; we canât give him time to react.â
âThen Iâll go with you,â Xiao Mo offered.
Zhuang Liu looked at him, âOf course youâre going in. If you donât go in, who will communicate with the reception? It certainly canât be me asking the reception, can it?â
With a smile, Xiao Mo said, âGood, Iâll go make the appointment right now.
He led the way, with Zhuang Liu following behind. They hadnât even entered the building when the security guard stopped them.
âWho are you? Whom are you looking for? Do you have an appointment?â the security guard asked aggressively.
Xiao Mo straightened his attire and offered a gentle smile, âHello, our boss would like to meet with Mr. Zhou Xing from the eighteenth floor, please let us through.â
The security guard looked them over, seeing that although they were cleanly dressed, they seemed like mere employees, so he responded arrogantly, âMr. Zhou Xing is indeed on the eighteenth floor, but heâs very busy and doesnât have the time to see you. Itâs better if you make an appointment and then come back.â
Xiao Mo glanced at Zhuang Liu, who then said, âTell him Zhuang Liu of the Zhuang family is looking for Zhou Xing.â The most foolish thing that Zhuang Liu had ever done was to actively seek someone without an appointment. If it wasnât for Tan Rou, he would never have done such a thing.
âZhuang Liu? Who is that? Never heard of him.â The security guard only cared about the affairs inside the building, not who was outside it.
Xiao Mo almost laughed â it was truly rare to find someone in the Capital who didnât know their boss.
Zhuang Liuâs expression turned sour as he said to Xiao Mo, âGet Zhou Xingâs phone number and call him directly, letâs not waste any more time here.â
Suppressing his laughter, Xiao Mo started searching for Zhou Xingâs phone number. As Zhuang Liuâs most capable assistant, Xiao Mo had impressive business skills, especially in tracking people down. It didnât take long before he found Zhou Xingâs number and contacted him using his work phone.
Zhou Xing came down quickly, looking somewhat haggard, but still managed to smile upon seeing Zhuang Liu, âWhat brings Mr. Zhuang to my place today?â
Though smiling, he was quite puzzled inside. Had he offended Zhuang Liu in some way? Why had he come here?
âMr. Zhou, I have a business matter Iâd like to discuss with you,â Zhuang Liu said with a smile. âI wonder if you still remember Liang Guo and Guo Xia?â
Zhou Xingâs face immediately changed color, but he maintained his composure, âWho Mr. Zhuang is referring to? I donât seem to know them?â
Zhuang Liu continued, âYou might not know now, but you will in a moment. Let me remind you, if you back off now, this matter might be resolved easily. But if you insist on continuing, donât blame us for not being polite.â
Zhou Xing became nervous. He wasnât afraid of Liang Lu alone, but if Zhuang Liu was backing her, then he needed to think carefully.
âItâs not convenient to talk here. Would Mr. Zhuang please come upstairs with me to discuss in detail?â Zhou Xing said with a smile.
Zhuang Liu made a signal to Xiao Mo, who immediately pressed his phone, then followed Zhuang Liu up to the eighteenth floor.
