Chapter 260: Chapter 270: This is almost like a set... Han Xi even felt a bit embarrassed for her.
Just as I got on the elevator, a solicitous voice sounded behind me: "Oh, it’s Mrs. Lu, what a coincidence."
Han Xi turned around, smiling faintly at the woman dressed so seductively in front of her: "Miss, do we know each other?"
The woman affectionately took Han Xi’s hand, as if they had been long-time friends: "My husband and President Lu are business partners, so we naturally shouldn’t be strangers. Once a stranger, twice acquainted."
Han Xi politely nodded and then pulled her hand away.
"My husband is Zhang Bingcheng of Time Creation Company. After you go back, please put in a good word for him with President Lu. Let’s go shopping together sometime."
This almost ingratiating tone... Han Xi felt a bit embarrassed for her.
Fortunately, the elevator doors opened just in time, or else Han Xi wouldn’t have known what to say. She nodded slightly at the woman and hurriedly left the elevator.
"Mrs. Lu, what’s your phone number? WeChat is fine too... Let’s have coffee or a meal together sometime."
Han Xi had already walked quite far, but the woman was still persistently asking from behind.
As Han Xi walked out of the hospital, she immediately spotted the red sports car parked by the roadside. Li Manman poked her head out of the open car window: "Hurry up, I’ll take you for something delicious."
Han Xi crossed the street, opened the car door, and got in. She fastened her seatbelt while asking, "What are we eating?"
"A new restaurant just opened recently, it’s both upscale and tasty."
Han Xi fastened her seatbelt and pushed the strands of hair from her forehead behind her ear: "Is it far? I have to rush back to work in the afternoon."
"It’s quite close to your hospital, don’t worry."
Li Manman started the car and turned the steering wheel onto the main road.
A few minutes later, the car stopped in front of a restaurant, and Han Xi and Li Manman got out and walked inside.
They randomly found a spot to sit down. After ordering, the waiter quickly brought their meals.
Li Manman took a sip of juice from the table, as if suddenly remembering something: "By the way, Xiao Xi, yesterday Lu Jinghan asked Feng Yi to arrange for a transfer of ten million to Han Guanghong’s account."
Han Xi frowned slightly at Li Manman. She had no idea about this matter.
"Jinghan had Feng Yi transfer ten million to him?"
"You didn’t know?"
Li Manman put down her cup, her clear voice carrying undisguised annoyance: "From what Feng Yi said, it seems Han Guanghong’s company had some financial issues. A few days ago, he went to Lu Jinghan’s company several times, but back then he was with you in Lin City. I guess this money was badgered off; he really has the nerve to ask Lu Jinghan for money, it’s just..."
Before Li Manman finished speaking, she saw Zhang Min and Han Yaxin walking in, chatting and laughing, carrying several luxury brand bags, mostly jewelry and such.
Li Manman gestured towards the mother and daughter with her chin, and Han Xi turned to look in that direction, her expression instantly turning cold.
Zhang Min and Han Yaxin also saw Han Xi.
"Oh, isn’t this Xiao Xi? What a coincidence."
Zhang Min walked over with a hypocritical smile.
Han Xi’s gaze fell on the jewelry bags in their hands, judging by the brands, they probably totaled around two million.
"You two have the audacity that even a knife couldn’t pierce, no money for the company’s cash flow, yet plenty to spend on luxury goods."
Han Xi’s dark eyes were chilling, like the bleak depths of late autumn.
