Chapter 450 Three Resounding Slaps
Chapter 450 Three Resounding Slaps
Yan Zuozuo stared wide-eyed in astonishment. In other words, her catering and entertainment business was about to face the embarrassing situation of being leaderless.
"I don't quite understand what this means." She took a deep breath and asked calmly.
Mr. Wang smiled respectfully: "Our Fila Group plans to expand its territory, and the next project is catering and entertainment. We have never been involved in this area before and have just started, so naturally we need to find some senior people to support us. Please forgive us, Director Yan."
Oh my god, does this mean she was poached by a competitor?
Wait a minute, FILA Group, isn't that the largest modeling agency in China? Could it be that the boss behind the scenes has an inextricable relationship with Yi Fanxi, or is it that their boss is actually Yi Fanxi?
Yan Zuozuo felt dizzy. She had to admit, Yi Fanxi's move was ruthless. She had only just taken the position of director and still had to take care of the charity. Now she was being dumped with such a huge problem. Even if she had three heads and six arms, she couldn't handle it.
But what was Yi Fanxi's purpose in doing this? Yan Zuozuo racked her brains but couldn't figure it out.
"So, they've already left?"
"No, our CEO said that Director Yan has a week to prepare, and the handover will begin immediately after that week."
Yan Zuozuo pursed her lips. Putting aside whether she could find the person in a week, even if she did, the sudden overhaul of so many catering and entertainment businesses would cause widespread panic.
No, she had to find a way to solve the staff shortage while also stabilizing morale. After a pause, she said, "Could we give them a few more days? Even if the new management team arrives, they'll need time to adapt."
Mr. Wang lowered his eyes and said after a while, "At most two weeks, this is the biggest concession our Fila Group has made initially."
Yan Zuozuo was utterly helpless, but she could only accept it. Even if she called Yi Fanxi, it wouldn't make a difference. After all, the Mafia had people all over the world, and she couldn't assume it was Yi Fanxi just because he had this badge. If he didn't admit it, there was nothing she could do.
It seems that Yi Fanxi is really targeting her.
As soon as Mr. Wang left, Judy came in and said that Mrs. Fan had arrived and was in the office. Yan Zuozuo nodded, took the documents and the check, and headed towards the office. Was she really going to give up like this?
Of course not!
Suddenly, she stopped in her tracks, remembering Chi Moqing's words that Yi Fanxi cared most about his adoptive father. Could she start by targeting his adoptive father?
Her eyes darted around, and an idea came to her.
Pushing open the office door, Yan Zuozuo saw Mrs. Fan wearing a huge sun hat with a veil over it, making it almost impossible to see her face clearly. Yan Zuozuo wondered, "Who goes to someone's office without taking off their hat?"
"Hello, I'm Yan Zuozuo, the director of Fan Hua Design. Are you Mrs. Fan?"
Mrs. Fan called her yesterday afternoon, saying she wanted to have clothes made by her. They arranged a time to meet for the first time.
Madam Fan nodded and shook hands with Yan Zuozuo, but did not show her face.
Yan Zuozuo found it even stranger. She saw Judy bring in the coffee, gesture for her to put it down, and then let her leave. She thought, perhaps Mrs. Fan doesn't like having other people around.
Even after Julie left, Mrs. Fan remained silent. Yan Zuozuo raised an eyebrow, took a sip of coffee, and, waiting for Mrs. Fan to speak, finally spoke first.
"Mrs. Fan, do you have any particular preferences or requirements regarding clothing?" she asked with a polite smile.
Madam Fan tightened her grip on the hem of her dress, then shook her head. "No."
"So what style do you like or what occasion do you want to wear it to?" She wasn't sure if it was just her imagination, but she felt that Mrs. Fan's voice was somewhat suppressed.
Mrs. Fan continued to shake her head, which made Yan Zuozuo vaguely feel that something was wrong. Just as she was about to ask again, her phone rang. Glancing at the caller ID, she couldn't help but smile slightly.
"Mrs. Fan, excuse me, I need to take this call." Yan Zuozuo said as she walked outside.
However, before she could even step out, she heard a furious shout from behind her: "Yan Zuozuo, die!"
Before Yan Zuozuo could react, she saw Madam Fan holding a dagger and heading straight for her.
"what!"
With a painful scream, Yan Zuozuo was quickly pulled aside, while Madam Fan, who had screamed, was kicked by someone and fell against the wall, her head hitting the wall hard.
pain!
Ignoring her own pain, she quickly picked up the dagger from the ground and stabbed Yan Zuozuo again.
The man who had pulled Yan Zuozuo away was swift and ruthless, and kicked Madam Fan. The kick landed squarely on her wrist, and she cried out in pain as if her arm had broken; her face turned deathly pale instantly.
A close call!
Madam Fan used her uninjured hand to pick up the chair next to her and smash it over Yan Zuozuo's head.
This is someone who's risking their life to kill her!
Yan Zuozuo was dumbfounded. The moves that Chi Moqing had taught her flashed through her mind. Instead of retreating, she faced Madam Fan head-on, bent her elbow and launched an attack on her stomach. Just as Madam Fan was about to dodge, she quickly used her elbow to strike her hard on the back.
"Ah!" Madam Fan cried out in pain, and the chair in her hands fell to the ground.
Taking advantage of the situation, Yan Zuozuo attacked her knee. The next second, Madam Fan was kneeling on the ground, her pale and bloodless face covered in cold sweat.
"Director, well done!" someone shouted, and a group of employees watching outside cast amazed glances at him.
Yan Zuozuo smiled sheepishly, then her expression suddenly hardened as she looked at Madam Fan. "Who exactly are you?"
Madam Fan was in so much pain that she couldn't stand up. At that moment, her hat fell off, revealing a face that shocked everyone.
Qin Yun?!
Qin Yun gritted her teeth, her gaze filled with resentment as she looked at Yan Zuozuo. "Yan Zuozuo, you bitch!"
Yan Zuozuo frowned: "Qin Yun, aren't you imprisoned? Do you know that escaping from prison will result in a harsher sentence?"
"I don't need your hypocritical reminder! Don't think you can swagger in front of me just because you have Chi Moqing as your backer. You're a despicable person who ruined my love and my career. Yan Zuozuo, let me tell you, I'll haunt you even as a ghost!" Qin Yun said through gritted teeth, as if she wanted to tear Yan Zuozuo to pieces.
Faced with the crazed woman before her, Yan Zuozuo instinctively felt that she was beyond saving. She never intended to destroy her love, much less her career; it was all her own doing.
Sure enough, the more you restrain yourself, the more some people will take advantage of you.
Staring at Qin Yun's frenzied appearance, something seemed to subtly change within Yan Zuozuo's heart. Her eyes darkened. "Is that so? A prisoner, what are you planning to do about it?"
"You think you can rest easy just because I'm alone? Yan Zuozuo, you're a complete joke. You keep a dangerous person around who could kill you at any moment, and you're still smug about it. Let me tell you, someone will avenge me, and you must die!"
Someone will avenge her? So, she's referring to Yi Fanxi becoming her enemy from now on?
Yan Zuozuo suddenly realized.
"You're a rotten woman, all you do is sell your body to seduce men. Only a stupid man like Chi Moqing would fall for it. He probably doesn't even know how many times you've cheated on him, right? Hahaha, Yan Zuozuo, you're such a slut..."
"Snapped!"
Before Qin Yun could finish speaking, a sharp pain suddenly shot through her face, accompanied by an unusually clear sound, and her face quickly swelled up.
She stared at Yan Zuozuo in disbelief: "You dare hit me? You slut, you shameless bitch..."
"Snapped!"
Before she could finish her rant, she received another solid slap from Yan Zuozuo.
"Yan Zuozuo!" she roared hysterically, but Yan Zuozuo simply looked at her indifferently, her eyes cold. "Have you finished cursing?"
"Snapped!"
Another slap landed, this time heavily on Qin Yun's face. Qin Yun saw stars and her ears rang, a testament to the force of the blow.
"Qin Yun, everything you've done today is your own fault. I've let you have your way before, but remember this: this time I will not tolerate you in the slightest. You'd better watch yourself!" As soon as she finished speaking, the police arrived and immediately handcuffed Qin Yun.
Qin Yun looked at Yan Zuozuo with surprise. This woman…
The police didn't give Qin Yun a chance to speak and dragged her away. As for Yan Zuozuo's office, there were surveillance cameras, and everything that just happened had been recorded. Even if Yan Zuozuo hit someone... well, it was self-defense, after all.
Yan Zuozuo breathed a sigh of relief, only then remembering the figure who had just saved her. She turned around, startled, but quickly became embarrassed. Her husband had saved her; so he also saw her hit someone?
Chi Moqing reached out and pulled her into his arms: "Well done."
Huh? Yan Zuozuo looked at Chi Moqing curiously. Didn't she think she was fierce and unladylike?
“However, I’ve still decided to send you a few bodyguards, so I can feel more at ease.” Seeing that Yan Zuozuo seemed about to object, he immediately said, “You’re not allowed to refuse!”
Yan Zuozuo pouted. What's going on? Where's the gentle and considerate demeanor? How did she suddenly turn into a domineering CEO? But she felt a sweet warmth in her heart. Actually, being domineering once in a while isn't so bad.
"However, they are not allowed to interfere with my work," she had to say beforehand.
Chi Moqing thought for a moment and said, "No problem."
Yan Zuozuo felt uneasy that Chi Moqing had arranged something she didn't know about since he agreed so readily. But whatever, her husband was doing it for her own good. As long as it didn't affect her work, she'd let him have his way.
After getting off work, Yan Zuozuo sat in Chi Moqing's car and asked curiously, "Honey, how did you know Qin Yun was out and how were you able to rescue me in time?"
"Just as I was about to come pick you up, I received a call from the police station saying that Qin Yun had been rescued. I knew she would come looking for you."
"She was rescued?" Yan Zuozuo was stunned. She thought she had escaped from prison on her own. "Who rescued her?"
Chi Moqing shook his head: "I'm afraid even Qin Yun himself doesn't know."
Yan Zuozuo's body stiffened. Did that mean that someone in the shadows wanted to get rid of her through someone else's hands? She couldn't help but shudder.
