"So, are we going or not?"
Yang Fei asked with a bitter smile.
At least the direction of the car needed to be decided, right?
He, the driver, was truly struggling!
"We are, but not now!" Ling Feng shook his head.
Then he asked Yang Fei, "Give me the information on Jingyi Group."
"Ah? Jingyi Group? Isn't that the company founded by General Lu? I heard their most famous product is beverages, and their functional drinks are said to be the best in the world. In less than half a year since its launch, it has already captured seventy percent of the global market!"
Yang Fei couldn't help but exclaim.
However, seeing Ling Feng's icy expression in the rearview mirror, Yang Fei couldn't help but tremble and quickly replied, "Yes, your subordinate will have someone collect it immediately!"
Then he continued driving towards the villa!
At the same time, after Li Tianjiao had a drink, his phone rang.
He quickly sat up and glanced at the caller ID, feeling a mix of amusement and helplessness.
After a moment of hesitation, he adjusted his breathing, making himself sound as if he had just finished doing something strenuous!
"Hello, who is this?"
"Li Tianjiao, in whose bed did you die that you haven't handled the matter I asked you to?"
A woman's voice exploded from the other end.
Li Tianjiao quickly pulled his phone away, his ears almost going deaf.
With a bitter smile, he muttered "tigress" to himself before speaking into the phone.
"Look, Sister Lu, how could I not handle the matters you asked me to? I've already spoken to Ling Tianci, and he understands everything. He should be able to find you soon!"
Hearing Li Tianjiao's words.
Lu Qingyi on the other end of the phone finally nodded with satisfaction.
"Good for you for being sensible. Alright, I've transferred a million yuan to your account as pocket money. You greedy thing, you're trying to extort money from me just for making a phone call. Humph!"
Beep, beep, beep...
Li Tianjiao was left dizzy and trembling as he listened to the dial tone.
Then he couldn't help but shake his head repeatedly, "Ling Tianci, Ling Tianci, you're doomed this time. Good luck!"
Clearly, Li Tianjiao felt no guilt for betraying Ling Feng.
Instead, he seemed to be gloating.
At this moment.
Ling Feng and the other man had returned to the villa.
They happened to run into Tang Ru, who was also getting out of a police car.
"Director, I live here. Thank you for driving me back! Um, about my leave request..."
Tang Ru was escorted out of the car by a middle-aged man. After getting out, she spoke to him.
The man, before Tang Ru could finish, smiled and nodded, "Don't worry about this, Miss Tang Ru! You will definitely get your leave, but the procedures still need to be followed! So, you still need to come to work normally these days, but I'll allow you to patrol in plainclothes!"
Tang Ru couldn't help but bite her lower lip.
Then she felt the man's hand on her shoulder, seemingly to escort her into the villa.
But the strength in his hand clearly indicated he was trying to take advantage of her.
Tang Ru, already disgusted by him, instinctively tried to pull away.
But at that moment, Ling Feng's voice rang out, "Tang Ru, what's wrong?"
This voice made Tang Ru tremble all over. She quickly pulled away from the middle-aged man's hand and stepped back to create distance.
Her movements were quite agile!
"Oh, Ling Feng, I'm fine. This is our Director, Wang Zhencheng. Director, this is my boyfriend, Ling Feng."
Tang Ru, being quite thoughtful at this moment, quickly introduced them to each other, fearing that Ling Feng might misunderstand.
At the same time, she also made it clear to Wang Zhencheng that she had a boyfriend!
Hearing this, Wang Zhencheng's gaze fell upon Ling Feng.
He then glanced at the luxurious villa beside them, and his lips curled downwards. Although this movement was very subtle, Ling Feng easily caught it.
This gesture indicated disdain, or perhaps jealousy.
But then Wang Zhencheng smiled and said to Ling Feng, "Heh, Mr. Ling, right? Tang Ru has mentioned you to me all the way. Mr. Ling, you are truly young and promising. The villas here are quite expensive!"
As he spoke, Wang Zhencheng stepped forward and extended his hand to Ling Feng.
As the saying goes, one doesn't hit a smiling face!
But these words were useless to Ling Feng.
They were equivalent to nonsense.
The Wang Zhencheng in front of him was probably in his early forties. Just now, he had almost made some inappropriate moves towards Tang Ru with his "salty pig's hand."
And now he wanted to shake hands with Ling Feng.
How could Ling Feng possibly pay attention to this guy?
To put it bluntly, he wasn't worthy!
Therefore, Ling Feng let Wang Zhencheng's hand freeze in front of him, completely ignoring Wang Zhencheng, and then turned to look at Tang Ru.
"What? Your leave request wasn't approved?"
Wang Zhencheng's mouth twitched instantly, and the smile on his face disappeared. He then withdrew his hand.
Tang Ru naturally saw this scene clearly and couldn't help but blush slightly.
In the past, she would have blamed Ling Feng for being so impolite.
However, after the suggestive remarks from Wang Zhencheng in the car and his attempt to take advantage of her after getting out, Tang Ru had seen him clearly.
Therefore, Tang Ru was also extremely disgusted by this uncle, even to the point of revulsion.
Seeing Ling Feng treat Wang Zhencheng in this manner, Tang Ru not only wasn't angry but felt a surge of sweetness in her heart.
Shouldn't her boyfriend protect her like this?
"Well, the leader said that approving leave takes time, especially since my leave request is for a rather long period. The procedures need to wait a bit!"
Tang Ru replied to Ling Feng.
After speaking, she lowered her head, not daring to look at Ling Feng, as if failing to get her leave approved was something she had let Ling Feng down on.
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng turned to stare at Wang Zhencheng and asked, "She's pregnant, and your unit won't approve her leave?"
"Pregnant?!"
Wang Zhencheng's eyes widened slightly, clearly unaware of this.
"Tang Ru, you... you didn't mention you were pregnant before!"
Seeing Wang Zhencheng's reaction, Ling Feng realized the problem lay with Tang Ru.
Tang Ru had not told the truth!
Tang Ru's face flushed with embarrassment. She gave Ling Feng a glare, then bowed slightly to Wang Zhencheng and said, "I'm sorry, Director, I didn't mention being pregnant before. I said I needed to rest due to my health. It should be about the same..."
Hearing Tang Ru admit to it, Wang Zhencheng's lecherous eyes fixed on Tang Ru's body, becoming even more unrestrained.
There was even a hint of perversion in his gaze!
"Oh, why didn't you tell me this earlier! Come on, let's go back to the bureau. This can help get the procedures approved faster!"
As Wang Zhencheng spoke, he reached out to grab Tang Ru's hand!
