278: Chapter 278 One Kilometer Away 278: Chapter 278 One Kilometer Away In her single apartment, Ding Wei finished her bath, wrapped herself in a bathrobe, and looked at the message with an anxious expression.
What does President Su mean with this statement?
Could it be that President Su has discovered her interest in Lin Shuang?
Ding Wei was somewhat panicked; she picked up her phone and after a long silence, she sent a WeChat message: “President Su, Lin Shuang and I…
are just ordinary friends.
He is my lifesaver, so I wanted to thank him by inviting him for a meal.
There’s nothing more to it.”
In front of President Su, Ding Wei could only offer a flustered explanation.
Indeed, she invited Lin Shuang to dinner tonight…
purely to express gratitude for saving her life.
But deep inside, Ding Wei had an additional motive; she hoped to use the occasion for a private date with Lin Shuang.
She just hadn’t expected this date to be completely disrupted by President Su and the Second Miss.
On the other end of the phone, Su Wanqiao sent another WeChat message: “Oh, that’s fine, just a reminder, the company does not allow colleagues to develop romantic relationships.”
Seeing this message, Ding Wei’s pretty face turned somewhat pale.
Is this a warning from President Su?
Ding Wei replied: “Rest assured, President Su, I am aware of this!”
On the other end of WeChat, Su Wanqiao finally stopped replying.
Ding Wei opened the birthday gift that Lin Shuang had sent, which was still unpacked on the sofa.
She had received the gift but had not yet opened it to see.
Now, Ding Wei carefully unwrapped the gift; it was a pair of black Chanel high heels.
They were exquisitely beautiful.
Ding Wei took out the shoes, tried them on her feet, and found they fit perfectly?
How did Big Brother Lin know her shoe size?
This made Ding Wei wonder.
Ding Wei opened Lin Shuang’s WeChat, composed a long message, but then deleted it and started over.
After several more attempts, she finally mustered the courage to send the message.
“Big Brother Lin, thank you for coming to my birthday dinner tonight.
I really like the gift you gave.”
Lin Shuang replied: “Glad you like it.”
Hesitant, Ding Wei asked, “By the way, Big Brother Lin, how did you know my shoe size?”
In WeChat, Lin Shuang replied: “I found out when I massaged your foot after you were injured last time.
It’s late now, go to sleep.”
Ding Wei, with mixed feelings, replied with two words: “Good night.”
Lin Shuang didn’t reply again.
That night, Ding Wei wore the high heels Lin Shuang had given her and took many photos.
To her, this night was…
the happiest day she had experienced since her days of studying, preparing for graduate exams, and starting work.
…
The following days passed as usual.
Su Wanqiao was out early and returned late every day, busy pushing forward the technology of “Heavenly Medicine”.
She continued researching, conducting clinical trials, and accelerating the mass production plan for Heavenly Medicine.
Once Heavenly Medicine truly hit the market and mass production began, it would cause a huge shock to the entire pharmaceutical industry.
A large number of pharmaceutical companies would face disruption and even bankruptcy.
Because of the terrifying efficacy of Heavenly Medicine, most pharmaceutical companies’ products would have no more market.
During this time, Su Wanqiao also faced continuous harassment from major pharmaceutical companies both domestic and abroad.
Countless pharmaceutical companies reached out to her, trying to discuss cooperation, but she rejected them all.
Many pharmaceutical executives even came in person to Shanghai to negotiate with Su Wanqiao, some going so far as to block her at the entrance of the Su Corporation, but all were driven away by Lin Shuang.
In this period, Lin Shuang was under immense pressure with his security work.
Pharmaceutical companies and capitalists from both domestic and international spheres wanted to take down Su Wanqiao, making her a target for numerous capitalists.
However, during this time, hired mercenaries from overseas did not make any more attempts on Su Wanqiao’s life.
It seemed that Lin Shuang’s ‘killing the chicken to warn the monkeys’ had indeed had its deterrent effect.
Using Chen Bu’e’s reputation, he had thoroughly intimidated those foreign hired assassins, preventing them from daring to enter Yanxia again.
That evening after work, Lin Shuang brought the Su sisters back to their Rose Villa mansion.
Mother Su invited Lin Shuang to stay for dinner.
In recent days, ever since Lin Shuang moved into the villa opposite, he had dinner at Su Wanqiao’s house every day.
At the dining table, the Su family’s chef had already prepared a table full of sumptuous dishes.
Lin Shuang sat at the dining table, in the midst of his meal.
But suddenly, the head of the bodyguards, Yang Feng, rushed into the villa anxiously!
“President Su!
It’s bad!
Our infrared radar has detected…
a squad of about five hundred people about one kilometer away from the villa, and they are approaching!” the head of the bodyguards reported with a grave expression!
Swipe!
Hearing Yang Feng’s words, the expressions of Su Wanqiao and her family suddenly changed?!
