Chapter 79: Zhang Ziqin’s Humble Descent into the Mud
“Is this what you wanted to say, President Zhang? We ca here seeking solutions to our problems, not to hear that the company is going bankrupt,” a shareholder stood up agitatedly, glaring at Zhang Ziqin.
Zhang Ziqin opened her eyes, her gaze becoming exceptionally serene for a mont: “I’m very sorry, but there’s no way out. My misjudgnt has led to the company’s demise. If any of you present have a solution, I am willing to resign from the president position.”
She was even smiling, only this ti, she truly went along with Lu Li’s wishes, hadn’t she? That’s good, at least she did one thing to make him happy.
“Everyone, please think for yourselves, the end cannot be changed.” Speaking indifferently, Zhang Ziqin looked like a Daoist priestess who had seen through everything, appearing very leisurely.
After saying this, Zhang Ziqin left the eting room under the gaze of all the shareholders.
She stopped the secretary who wanted to follow her, walking out of the Zhang Corporation building alone. Looking back at the vast Zhang Corporation, she once obsessed over restoring its forr glory, yet she neglected Lu Li, and in the end, she even lost him.
If Lu Li wished for Zhang Corporation to go bankrupt, then let it be. Without Lu Li, Zhang Corporation wouldn’t have lasted until now. If its bankruptcy could make Lu Li happy, then it was worth it.
Today was her second visit to the Lu Corporation.
“Please contact President Chen Xiaoyi for ,” she said indifferently to the receptionist, even with a smile.
The receptionist was a bit surprised by Zhang Ziqin’s request, not expecting her to co not for President Lu this ti, but to see President Chen – it was a eting between rival lovers!
“Just a mont, I’ll check for you.” She picked up the phone to call Chen Xiaoyi. President Lu had instructed to send Zhang Ziqin away imdiately if she ca looking for him, but this ti she was here for President Chen!
Soon, the receptionist hung up the phone.
“Please wait a mont, President Chen said she will co down soon.”
“Okay.” Zhang Ziqin smiled tranquilly, sitting quietly on the side. The news of Zhang Corporation going bankrupt tomorrow seed to have no effect on her.
Even in her heart, Zhang Ziqin felt a sense of relief. Without Zhang Corporation, it was like paying back what she owed to Lu Li, and in the future, she would no longer be bound by Zhang Corporation. In her past life, it was because she valued Zhang Corporation too much and neglected Lu Li’s feelings. It might be better to go bankrupt, so she could spend more ti trying to nd her relationship with Lu Li.
About ten or so minutes later, Chen Xiaoyi appeared in the resting area.
“President Zhang, you’re not dealing with Zhang Corporation’s matters and are looking for ? If I’m not mistaken, Zhang Corporation is already in big trouble, right?” Faced with this woman, even the normally gentle Chen Xiaoyi couldn’t hide her disdain.
“I will declare Zhang Corporation bankrupt to the court tomorrow.” Zhang Ziqin lowered her head, looking at the woman cherished by Lu Li, suddenly finding herself unable to look her in the eye.
The woman who was once held dearly by Lu Li, but now, Lu Li’s affection that once belonged solely to herself was given to another woman. That deep love, which the forr Zhang Ziqin could easily reach, was not cherished. Lu Li had walked ninety-nine steps towards her, yet she did not take the final step, instead continuously pushing him away until she completely lost him.
The unspeakable pain seed to tear her heart apart, a hint of agony appearing on her beautiful face.
Seeing the Zhang Ziqin in front of her, Chen Xiaoyi suddenly felt a surge of satisfaction. This hateful woman deserved it. However, thinking about what this woman had done to Lu Li, Chen Xiaoyi couldn’t accept it.
“So, what do you want from ? Don’t tell you’re hoping for my rcy!” Mocking the hateful woman, Chen Xiaoyi spared no effort in her scorn.
Zhang Ziqin shuddered, suddenly raising her head: “I want to see Lu Li. Can you convey a ssage to him for ?”
Even the desire to see Lu Li had to rely on this rival in her eyes.
“Heh, wanting to see Lu Li, you’re probably hoping he would invest money in you like before.” Disdain filled her heart; in Chen Xiaoyi’s view, Zhang Ziqin was attempting to use her past relationship with Lu Li to evoke his sympathy, even after she had personally contributed to Zhang Corporation’s downfall, hoping he would help lift it up again.
“See Lu Li, what do you want to do? Continue to humiliate him, hurt him like before? How did Lu Li treat you in the past? He gave his whole heart to you, and what did you do? You humiliated and mocked him, you even made it so he couldn’t step into Zhang Corporation again. Now, Lu Li wants to sever ties with Zhang Corporation, with you, and here you are, rushing over as soon as you see Lu Li succeeding!”
Chen Xiaoyi couldn’t hold back and vented all her pent-up frustration.
Fully devoted to the man she cared about, Chen Xiaoyi had watched him pursue Zhang Ziqin deeply in love, but this woman treated Lu Li so poorly. It’s one thing not to love, but why harm him? Even if she didn’t cherish him, why humiliate Lu Li to such an extent, constantly pushing him into the mire?
As for helping her et Lu Li, what a delusional thought from this woman.
“I’m not, I’ve always loved Lu Li, more than you, more than anyone!” Zhang Ziqin burst out emotionally, tears uncontrollably falling.
Chen Xiaoyi’s eyes grew colder; she already despised the woman in front of her, now finding Zhang Ziqin even more detestable.
“So, your love for Lu Li is to humiliate him repeatedly, mock him, and deny him even the entrance to Zhang Corporation?
Your love for Lu Li is truly unique and unparalleled!”
In Chen Xiaoyi’s eyes, Zhang Ziqin was using this as a tactic to stir Lu Li’s sympathy due to the situation with Zhang Corporation.
Zhang Ziqin collapsed on the floor, unable to respond to Chen Xiaoyi’s mockery, not even able to utter a word in her defense, her tears of agony slowly falling.
“Speak up, you were so eloquent before. Co on, explain how your love for Lu Li is supposed to make sense.” Chen Xiaoyi mocked Zhang Ziqin.
“What’s going on, why the commotion?” A gentle male voice ca through, and instantly, both Chen Xiaoyi and Zhang Ziqin involuntarily shifted their gaze.
The man’s handso face was adorned with a slight smile, his well-fitted clothes accentuating his upright figure, making him stand out wherever he was.
Lu Li had arrived without them noticing.
