After saying that, he turned around and looked back at me, and said something seemingly lightheartedly: "I'll be waiting for you in the office, and the timer will start from the moment I step into the office. If you come in one minute late, I will stop you."
The liquidated damages plus one hundred thousand, there is no upper limit. Of course, you can choose to leave angrily for things like dignity, but I can guarantee that I will ask the legal team to send a letter at the latest tomorrow morning, and we can - see you in court."
"You are sick!!!"
I scolded angrily, but saw him walking away without looking back. I couldn't help but feel a little anxious. I moved my butt towards the wall and stood up slowly, then followed him limping with a cold sweat on my head.
I don't dare to take what he says now seriously. Who knows what he can do. Besides, if this thing really gets too big, Cheng Baize will be the one who gets the most embarrassment in the end, so he won't be guilty!
By the time I rushed to his office panting heavily, Zhuo Jing was already sitting on his huge boss chair, stretched out his legs comfortably and put his feet on the desk, looking at me with a half-smile but not a smile on his face:
"Yes, fifty-nine seconds. It seems that you really don't want Cheng Baize to spend money."
My teeth chattered slightly because of the pain, and I looked at him: "I brought five hundred thousand, since I broke the contract, let's just have fun!"
He tilted his body slightly, opened the drawer, and casually threw out a contract: "Article 36, if Party B unilaterally breaks the contract, then Party A has the right to require Party B to continue to perform the contract. Of course, if Party B still
If you insist on breaking the contract, in addition to the liquidated damages, you will also have to compensate Party A for losses. This loss refers to the losses caused to Party A due to Party B's breach of contract..."
"What do you mean?" I supported his desk and looked at him, otherwise I really couldn't stand: "Didn't I lose all my money!!"
"What about time? How should the value of time be measured?"
I gritted my teeth: "Did you do this on purpose?!" As I said that, I calmed down the anger in my chest a little. If I were to confront him with this attitude, I might not be able to defeat him: "Zhuo Jing, I admit that I may have deceived you before. You
It's normal to be angry, but that's all in the past. You can't blame me now. Even if it's for my uncle's sake, you still..."
Zhuo Jing's expression became colder and colder. It was so cold that I couldn't speak anymore. He stared straight at me: "Keep going."
I finally understood that he was this kind of person. It was useless for me to say anything. I waved my hand and said, "Forget it, I don't want to say anything. Anyway, you just can't get along with me."
"Ah."
He sneered, finally put down his long, unsightly legs, and sat on the boss's chair to look at me: "Lin Qiao, you really overestimate yourself." As he said that, he softly uttered a sentence
Words: "Who do you think you are?"
I twitched the corner of my mouth in a self-deprecating way. It was really cold from the outside to the inside, and it hurt from my feet to my chin. I lowered my eyes and tugged at the corner of my clothes: "Yes, I overestimated myself, Mr. Zhuo, it's my fault."
You are so proud of your knowledge. Don’t be as knowledgeable as a small role like me. I know that you know many onmyojis who are much more powerful than Mr. Cheng. What do we think? We have no objection to compensation for liquidated damages. I just ask you to open up.
On the one hand, let us go, and I can't thank you enough here."
Although I wasn't looking at him, I could feel that his eyes were always trying to penetrate me. On the way there, I was mentally building myself up. At least, I hoped that I could behave openly and openly.
, but from the moment I saw him, I felt that I couldn't hold myself tight. Maybe he was too much, maybe I was too guilty. Whether it was acting or showing true feelings, the wound that finally scabbed over started to bleed again.
The blood is bleeding——
"Okay, since you are so sensible, I have nothing to say. The contract is right in front of you. You can tear it up now."
It was such a twist!! I was startled for a moment and looked up at him in disbelief: "Really?!"
He looked at me expressionlessly, "Of course, but... do you think that if some of Cheng Baize's victims knew that he actually disappeared a year ago, would he be labeled a liar in the future?"
While I was ecstatically checking the authenticity of the contract, I was momentarily confused, "What did you say?!!"
Zhuo Jing looked at me with a smile on his face: "If anyone knew that Mr. Cheng, who has now overshadowed Sun Jiji, has always been a fake named Ma Jiaolong, tell me, what will everyone think, or even dare to
Isn’t this Ma Jiaolong a little too courageous to use Mr. Cheng’s name to trick him into cooperating with ZF on the Happy World project?”
"Zhuo Jing, you..."
I gritted my teeth so hard that I couldn't help but rattle. At that moment, I wanted to bite them into pieces. Now I don't bother to ask him how he found these things. For some "careful people", if they want to dig it out, they will dig it out naturally.
It’s just that I didn’t expect that he would shamelessly threaten me!
Zhuo Jing stood up slowly while holding on to the table, put his hands in his trouser pockets, and walked in front of me in a few steps, saying, "Do you regret offending a vengeful person? Of course, I can give it to you."
If you have the opportunity to beg for mercy, beg me, you know, if you don’t have the ability, you must be willing to be inferior to others.”
The contempt in his tone directly pierced my nerves. I suddenly laughed and raised my eyes to look at him: "Why should I beg you?! Yes, you have threatened me, and I do have a handle."
I am in your hands, but you are not superior to others. Everything you have today is not through your efforts. And no matter how humble my status is, I still rely on myself. In other words, without your parents, you
You can’t sit in this position, let alone have the money to hire someone to investigate me. To put it bluntly, you are just a rich second generation pretending to be pretentious. Without your parents, you are nothing!!!”
I admit that I am crazy. I dare to provoke him like this. According to the current situation, I am still lame and basically semi-disabled. If he kills me, it should be the same as playing with him, but I really can't bear it.
Can't help but, his words are hurtful, but it's not like I won't say hurtful words. If he hadn't been reincarnated and born with a silver spoon in his mouth, he wouldn't have the life to sit here!
He went to study abroad when he was a teenager. He had the best educational conditions and a lot of money to spend at will. After graduation, he could directly become the general manager and take over such an important construction project. What did he rely on for all this? His proud capital
What is it, but there are parents behind you who can support all this.
I didn't understand anything before. I liked his strong aura and his domineering power, but looking at it now, he didn't do anything. I struggled until today to realize how hard it is to rely on myself, but he didn't move a finger.
He got everything. Why should he be so crazy about me? Why should I beg him? Although I admit that I can't forget him, I also disdain his arrogance because he has never struggled! He is not needed in this position.
With every bit of effort, people are divided into three, six or nine grades, but dignity is absolutely not divided. I rely on myself to feed myself and live a difficult life on my own. Why do I ask him? Why should I be willing to be inferior to others?!!
Zhuo Jing's expression turned cold, and he looked at me and took a step closer: "You think I don't need to work hard to stand here, right?"
I laughed disdainfully: "It's good to have your parents. What do you have to work hard for? If anyone had parents like you, he might be in the position he is now."
As I said that, I took a deep breath and looked at his frosty face that had not changed for thousands of years: "Isn't he just an angry evil spirit? I'm broken. I will fulfill all the obligations of the contract. Why don't I make money if I have money? Just treat it as me."
When I learned about the building "City of One Heart", I thought who would be so boring to build such a building, but now that I know it's you, I'm not surprised anymore. You are rich and willful. I think other than those few you
Experts hired with money, does anyone say that the "City of One Heart" is suitable? Everyone knows about the heart-piercing evil, but only you will waste people and money to destroy it for your own selfish desires. Zhuo Jing, you are just a young man, a willful young man.
.”
After saying that, I turned around and limped towards the office door. I thought Zhuo Jing would be angry or do something to me, but instead of doing anything, he was unusually quiet——
I didn't look back at him, I just felt the coldness penetrated by his eyes. The air conditioner in the room seemed to be turned on, and I felt a little cold. I raised my hand and opened the door, but I was slightly shocked: "Is it you?"
"
The person standing outside the door looked at me with surprise on his face: "Why are you here?!" But then he smiled sweetly: "It turns out that I was not wrong this morning, you are really here, why, yes
Do you still miss Mr. Zhuo?"
As she said that, she swayed her waist and crossed me, directly holding Zhuo Jing's arm: "Mr. Zhuo, you've made me wait downstairs for more than an hour. Aren't you going to eat? I'm going to starve to death."
Woolen cloth."
Don't let this scene irritate my eyes too much. I never imagined that Zhuo Jing... going to have dinner with Xu Linlin?
Thinking about it, I raised my eyes and looked at Zhuo Jing. He actually looked at Xu Linlin and tugged at the corner of his mouth: "It's just that I have something to deal with. It's been dealt with now. You can go."
I looked at Xu Linlin's hand on Zhuo Jing's arm, and my heart twisted and hurt. At that time, I really had the urge to go up and pull it out. It's so shameless, whose arm are you holding!!
But I didn't move. I stood there with a rare calm look on my face. I moved my eyes very calmly, supported the wall and turned around. Just as I was about to leave, I heard Xu Linlin say from behind: "Jiaolong, are you okay tonight? We are all friends and we will eat together."
Let’s have a meal.”
I chuckled and didn't look back: "Forget it, I'll lose weight, you can just eat it." After walking two steps with a limp leg, I heard Zhuo Jing's calm voice coming from behind: "You will be mine from now on."
Don't call her Jiaolong, she is Lin Qiao."
Xu Linlin smiled like a silver bell: "Isn't it the same? Okay, I will remember it and I will follow you."
At that moment, my chest suddenly felt extremely painful, and my eyes were so sore that I tried to open them wider and wider. What was wrong with this world? Wasn't Xu Linlin been kept by someone? Would he want such a woman?!
Zhuo Jing, Zhuo Jing, you really impressed me when you came back...
Xu Linlin held Zhuo Jing's arm and walked past me while chatting and laughing. She probably saw that my feet were a little lame, so she hurried over to help me: "Hey, what's wrong with your feet? Come on, I'll help you, be careful!"
I raised my hand and threw her away. Most of my body was attached to the wall, otherwise I was really afraid that I wouldn't be able to stand. I lowered my eyes and didn't want to see Zhuo Jing's current state: "No, you can go your way. I just want to
It's just a slight tear, it's not a problem."
"Let's go, she's fine. This injury won't kill her." Zhuo Jing responded calmly from the side, raised his feet and went straight to the elevator, "Hey, Mr. Zhuo, wait for me." Xu Linlin called Zhuo.
Jing shouted and looked at me carefully: "Jiaolong, are you okay?"
I was too lazy to look at her and whispered: "Get out."
Xu Linlin's face was very close to mine. Instead of being angry when I said this, she laughed softly: "Jiaolong, you still love him, right?"
I glared at Xu Linlin with a cold face, gritted my teeth and said, "What the hell are you doing? Are you hungry? Then go and eat."
Xu Linlin glanced at Zhuo Jing, who had already stood in the elevator and was obviously impatient, looked at me and took a deep breath: "Yes, who wouldn't love such a man?" As she said that, her expression also darkened: "But remember
Come on, he's mine. I only want the best. You'd better not compete with me. Don't forget how you were despised by him in the first place, both sexes and people."
After saying that, she raised her feet and ran directly to the elevator. After standing next to Zhuo Jing, she looked at me with concern and shouted loudly: "Lin Qiao! Do you really not want me to help you? Do your feet really don't matter?"
Take two steps quickly, we are waiting for you!!"
I raised my eyes and looked directly at Zhuo Jing. I wanted to see something in his eyes. Is he really like those rich second generations who like to play with their children and celebrities?
Zhuo Jing, even if we have broken up, don't let me be so disappointed, okay?
But he just glanced at me lightly, and then raised his hand and pressed the elevator door button. His eyes were so pale that I couldn't see anything. Xu Linlin seemed to be anxious and shouted next to her: "Wait! Wait for her.
!!”
I leaned against the wall and watched the elevator door slowly close. It lost all its momentum. My legs softened and I slid along the wall to the ground. I felt sad for this moment and silently faced myself.
Say, Ma Jiaolong, what are you doing? You think of yourself too well. People are trying to forget you just like you want to forget them. In the end, they succeeded, but you are still paralyzing yourself. You
Damn it, you should look in the mirror and let it go as promised. What are you doing? You are so despising!! Do you want to bear the humiliation again? What's so good about him?
!Just a good-for-nothing rich second generation! You stinking fool! You have spent two years in vain, really in vain——
"Jiaolong, what's wrong with you!"
When Xiao Tian and Zong Bao came up in the elevator, I was holding on to the wall and limping toward the elevator. When I heard Xiao Tian calling me, I quickly wiped the tears on my face: "It's okay, I just sprained my ankle."
.”
Zong Bao came to hold my arm quietly, but I instantly became angry: "Liu Zongbao! Why did you come up here! I just called you in the elevator, why didn't you come and help me!!!"
"Did he hurt you?" Zong Bao looked at me and asked directly.
I pursed my lips: "He hurts his ass! I'm just angry with you, do you know that?"
Zong Bao lowered his eyes: "I saw him going out with a girl, oh, it must be that female star."
I didn't want to talk, so I limped and strode toward the elevator. Today was definitely the messiest day for me in the past two years!
Xiao Tian followed me and asked cautiously: "Jiaolong, what is your relationship with our general manager? Why do I feel that you two are not as simple as relatives?"
I sighed softly: "What does that look like?"
"Like someone who has loved and been hurt..."
I laughed out loud: "Is it important? It's all over."
"So you really dated Mr. Zhuo!" Xiao Tian instantly looked at me with surprise on his face: "No wonder he looked so wrong when I showed him the contract that day. Jiaolong, are you hurting our Mr. Zhuo and Shen
ah."
I held the corner of my mouth and looked at Xiao Tianxiao helplessly: "Do you think someone of your Mr. Zhuo will hurt him? If he was really hurt, how could he still be so cool?"
Xiao Tian frowned: "I don't think so. He was hurt, so he went to extremes. And when you say chic, do you mean him and Linda? I also find it strange. Since he took over this project, there have been so many people around him.
There were no women, and the female employees in the company generally became nymphomaniacs when they saw Mr. Zhuo, but Mr. Zhuo always acted like a stranger and was so cold that even men were afraid of him, let alone women, but
Who knows why he was suddenly with Linda today? Could it be that Linda came to attend the media conference in the morning and was appointed by President Zhuo..."
After saying that, Xiao Tian immediately looked at me with some taboo, "No, no, no, I'm just guessing, Jiaolong, don't think too much..."
I smiled and said, "I have so many things on my mind. In fact, it's not a big deal. Even if you know that he and I were together before, but have we broken up now? It's up to him to do whatever he wants."
It's just that I'm feeling chilled inside, but maybe this is good. After I break the evil spirits in this 'City of One Heart' this time, then if I go back, I can really forget about him completely.
He has completely changed. With him like this, what else is there for me to think about?
Because I sprained my ankle, I couldn't drive, so Xiao Tian could only see us off. He turned to look at me and said, "By the way, Jiaolong, how are you going to deal with your contract?"
I lowered my eyes: "Give me two days and I will find all the vents."
"You're not going to break the contract?!"
I shook my head: "No, it would be a pity to throw away half a million like this. It's not worth it."
I used to be afraid that if I took a step closer, I would sink again, but now it has been proven that I thought too much. In that case, why should I escape? I also gave him the half million for nothing. It was really not worth it.
