Fu Yuan sent the video link to Jian Wan.
“Auntie pushed a four or five-year-old girl and is suspected of abusing children. The public opinion on the Internet is very unfriendly. Even the Jian family is being brought into question.
“It’s not good to let the rumors continue to spread. It’s better to let Auntie upload a video to apologize to this girl.”
After Fu Yuan gave his suggestion, Jian Wan watched the video.
She said in disbelief, “Why would Mom do such a thing? She’s definitely not a child abuser… Brother Yuan, don’t misunderstand. I’ll ask Mom about it now.”
Jian Wan hung up the phone and quickly contacted Lin Zhi.
Lin Zhi was currently in the hospital for a physical examination when she heard the news.
“It’s fake. I don’t want to apologize. I want to send a lawyer’s letter to the person who published the news! Wan’er, how could you believe this news? Didn’t I already say so in the video that the little girl stabbed me with a needle? That’s why I pushed her!”
“But, Mom… why would a child like her use needles?” Jian Wan asked hesitantly.
“How am I supposed to know? Maybe your father’s mistress is trying to take my place and is doing this on purpose.”
At this point, Lin Zhi felt a chill run down her spine.
“I’m here in the hospital because I suspected that there was a virus in that needle. You’ll believe me once the results are out.”
“Wan’er, ask the Jian Corporation’s public relations department to send legal letters to the media outlets. Seal their mouths first. This is an internal matter of the Jian Corporation.”
“Alright, Mom.”
Jian Wan agreed and told Lin Zhi what Fu Yuan said.
Lin Zhi replied, “Participating in the competition? Alright, I have a plan. We’ll just have to give the judges gifts to build a friendship. Then, you’ll definitely win first place.”
“As for Jian Yan, the public relations articles that we spent money on were all hacked. It must have been done by the Fu Corporation. Why are they letting her participate in the competition? They should have destroyed her hands and face.”
“She has just returned to the country and I’m already starting to get unlucky. She’s a jinx to us. The better her life gets, the more unlucky we will be. Let’s see if she can still be arrogant once she loses her support and President Fu no longer fancies her.”
After hearing Lin Zhi’s arrangement, Jian Wan’s initial fear was gone. She happily said, “Okay, Mom. You can do it!”
Lin Zhi smiled smugly at her daughter’s encouragement. As she waited for the results of the health checkup, she contacted her drug supplier to keep an eye on Jian Yan. She needed an opportune moment to ruin the latter’s hands and face.
At the same time.
Jian Yan looked at the car tailing her in the rearview mirror and sighed. She stopped the car by the roadside and got out of the car. She knocked on the window of Fu Li’s car.
She wasn’t going to bring Fu Li to meet the three children.
She could lecture the three children once they got home. Since that was the case, it was better to deal with Fu Li first.
Fu Li rolled down the car window and said seriously, “Yanyan, what a coincidence. We’re going the same way.”
Jian Yan said, “Stop lying. I know you’re worried that I’m not in a proper state to drive and will get into an accident. But look, I’ve calmed down. Can you rest assured now?”
Fu Li shook his head.
“President Fu, your time is so precious. Why must you spend it on me?”
“I’m very grateful that you saved me yesterday. I also know that you’re very good to me, but you and I can only be friends at most. If you continue to follow me, we’ll head to the Civil Affairs Bureau and we will both regain our freedom sooner.”
Jian Yan turned around and felt that it was a good idea to drive to the Civil Affairs Bureau. She was prepared to keep to her word.
Fu Li got out of the car and stopped her.
“I can be your friend, but I can’t go to the Civil Affairs Bureau. If you really want to thank me for saving your life, then treat me to lunch.”
Jian Yan questioned him, “You won’t pester me after that?”
“Yes…” Fu Li nodded.
Jian Yan looked at him suspiciously. Seeing that he nodded his head, she believed him. It was almost noon. It was not a big deal to treat him to a meal, so she agreed.
Then, Fu Li brought her to the most famous couple restaurant in Luo City. Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, she could see half of the city center.
The two of them sat down.
The atmosphere in the room was gentle and romantic. The walls were pink and blue. Although it was daytime, the waiter still turned on the lights. The lights were dim and not very bright, but it created a warm and hazy atmosphere.
Only two words flashed through Jian Yan’s mind—a date.
Fu Li was a gentleman and asked the waiter to pass the menu to Jian Yan to let her order. He smiled at her.
Under such an atmosphere, even if it was two people who had just met, their hearts would involuntarily beat faster as long as they had a favorable impression of each other, let alone the two of them.
After Fu Li found out that Jian Yan still liked him, he decided to take his time.
He would take things one step at a time to let Jian Yan recognize her emotions and take another step forward.
Jian Yan lowered her eyes to scan through the menu. Every dish on the menu had a Chinese translation with the ingredients listed below. Regardless of the ingredients, every translation was very ambiguous.
The names of the dishes were all romantic!
