Following closely, Cui Haoze stopped his screams, a sharp intake of breath escaping him from the pain.
"I, was wrong."
Knowing he couldn't defeat Avaska.
Cui Haoze gritted his teeth and said meekly.
If the fight continued, he would truly die.
"Mr. Avaska, you don't need to pick a fight with a junior like me."
"I can sincerely apologize to you."
"Apologizing to me is useless."
Avaska said with a stern face, his expression serious.
"If you want Mr. Song to forgive you, you might live today."
Upon hearing this, Cui Haoze immediately crawled to Song Qiao's feet and knelt down with a thud.
The young master of the Guangxin Consortium, now in such a pathetic state.
"Song Qiao, we have no past grudges or recent enmity. Please be magnanimous and let me off this once."
Hearing this, Song Qiao glanced at him indifferently and warned him.
"Remember from now on, when you covet someone else's woman, you need to keep your eyes open."
"Otherwise, you might find yourself with your legs broken one day."
Then, he dropped two words.
"Scram."
"President Song is right. I'll leave now, I'll leave now."
Not daring to linger any longer, Cui Haoze was helped away by his bodyguards.
However, as he left, he still cast a venomous glance at Song Qiao.
It seemed he hadn't given up on revenge in his heart.
"This guy..."
Song Qiao was not oblivious to the man's suppressed hatred.
He would likely find ways to retaliate after returning.
However, Song Qiao was not worried.
After all, someone with such a narrow mind, even if they eventually led the consortium,
Would likely fall due to recklessness, posing no real threat.
"President Song, hello. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Seeing her backer flee in disarray, Shi Juan no longer had any of her former arrogance.
She quickly stepped forward to flatter him, her words becoming cautious.
"We, know each other now, don't we?"
Although it was a case of "not fighting, not knowing each other."
"I'm single now."
As she spoke, she moved closer to Song Qiao, as if hinting at something.
However, Song Qiao waved his hand impatiently, wanting to drive her away.
"I have nothing to do with you. Go away with Cui Haoze."
"But... I, since I owe President Song, I will find a way to repay you."
As she spoke, she swayed her body, speaking with an obsequious expression.
"If you need it, I can too."
"What Li Bingqing can do, I can do, and more."
Sensing the meaning in her words, Li Bingqing's face reddened, and she was about to curse.
"Your figure is good."
Unexpectedly, Song Qiao spoke first.
Hearing this, Shi Juan felt a surge of joy and was about to press her advantage.
Who knew that the next words would plunge her into despair.
"It's just that you're too ugly. Just throw her out."
At this, Shi Juan panicked and hugged his leg, crying out.
"You, you can't do this. I've admitted my mistake, and..."
However, before she could say more.
Avaska immediately waved his hand, ordering his bodyguards.
"Hurry up and do it. Don't let Mr. Song see this scoundrel."
Upon hearing this, the bodyguards forcibly dragged the sobbing and crying Shi Juan away.
Only when the cries faded into the distance did Li Bingqing finally breathe a sigh of relief.
At the same time, she silently cursed in her heart.
"This scoundrel. I really thought he was so desperate he'd take anyone."
It seemed Song Qiao's impression in her mind wasn't very good either.
"Song Qiao, the matter is over."
Seeing this.
The Provincial Governor finally relaxed.
At least, the worst-case scenario hadn't happened.
"Then I'll be leaving. However, I hope you will consider the bigger picture and not let this incident affect our future cooperation."
With that, Zheng Shan waved goodbye and departed.
Watching the retreating figure, Song Qiao was silent for a moment, but said nothing.
"Miss Li, your family once invited me to inject capital and revitalize your Li Group."
Avaska turned to greet Li Bingqing.
He also had dealings with the Li family and had naturally heard of this young lady.
"However, I must inform you that although I can help you, I will listen to Mr. Song's every word."
"As soon as Mr. Song says to stop, I will stop, just like last time."
"Why?"
Li Bingqing asked suspiciously.
Last time, it was precisely because of that incident that he suddenly withdrew his investment, leading to her defeat by Ye Corporation.
"Did our Li family not give you enough?"
"It has nothing to do with profit."
Avaska said sincerely, then looked up at Song Qiao.
"We Snow Country people do business with integrity."
"The favor we owe Mr. Song is something we can never repay."
"I've heard that your country also values chivalry. I'm sure you can understand me."
"Understand..."
Li Bingqing was silent for a moment, regretting that she didn't have the same good fortune.
"Mr. Song, you've finally made it to Huaxia. We must have a good drink together this time."
Turning, Avaska patted Song Qiao on the shoulder.
Their relationship was truly like that of brothers.
"Of course, no problem. Thanks to your help this time, I'll be the host and treat you to a good drink."
Song Qiao said, "Let's go to Liu Dong's place together."
"It's been a while since I drank with Brother Dong too."
And so, led by Song Qiao, the group headed to Liu Dong's bar.
Inside the bar, Sister Wan was serving customers, but her eyes held a hint of disdain.
She couldn't be bothered with these ordinary customers, especially compared to that person...
"Sister Wan!"
Then, she heard a familiar voice.
Sister Wan immediately turned her head and looked towards the crowd at the entrance.
A smile immediately appeared on her usually cold face.
Indeed, just as she was thinking of him, he arrived.
"President Song, it's been a while since you've visited our bar. What brings you here today?"
She completely ignored the other customers and warmly welcomed him.
"Today I've brought friends to drink at your place."
Song Qiao introduced them one by one, "This is Avaska, a renowned magnate from Snow Country, and Miss Li Bingqing of the Li family."
However, seeing Li Bingqing naturally held in Song Qiao's embrace.
Sister Wan pouted inwardly, seemingly displeased, but dared not show it.
"It's an honor for our humble establishment to have Mr. Avaska visit personally."
Upon hearing the news, Liu Dong personally came out, told Sister Wan to step aside, and decided to serve them himself.
Given Avaska's high status, he naturally wouldn't dare to neglect him.
"Come, let's toast to our friendship."
With that, he personally stood up and proposed a toast to Song Qiao and the other person.
"Cheers!"
The three clinked glasses and drank in one go.
Accompanied by the melodious piano music in the bar, Avaska became increasingly tipsy, drinking glass after glass.
"Brother Dong, I don't remember there being a piano in your place before."
Following the sound, Song Qiao noticed that the person playing the piano was a stranger.
"Her name is Guo Can. She's from the Guo family of the Imperial Capital."
Hearing this, Liu Dong seemed to jolt as if waking up, and even his drunkenness cleared a little.
"President Song, this woman is difficult to deal with. I suggest you don't provoke her too much."
"Her surname is Guo. Could she be Guo Ning's sister?"
As he spoke, Song Qiao casually patted Li Bingqing's buttocks, "I'm asking you a question, did you hear me?"
Li Bingqing was both embarrassed and annoyed, and nodded resentfully.
"So that's how it is."
Song Qiao smiled slightly, his eyes sharp as he said, "Then I'll provoke her a little. Not much."
