"I am still powerless because the current situation in Longcheng is extrely complex."
Lin Zhenbei’s voice remained devoid of any emotion, as he spoke slowly.
"I understand." Lin Yanan replied coldly and then hung up the phone.
Seeing this, Lin Zhenbei directly smashed the phone on the ground, his previously calm face now showing a touch of anger.
"Boss, if you care so much about Miss’s attitude, why don’t you explain to her what you’ve done for her? I believe after she hears it, her attitude towards you won’t be so cold."
At this mont, a tall and burly man, with five blue dragons tattooed on his arm, spoke up.
This man was none other than Lin Zhenbei’s top subordinate, Long Wu!
"Why do you talk so much nonsense?" Lin Zhenbei glanced at Long Wu, then laughed and scolded him angrily.
Upon hearing this, Long Wu’s usually fierce face surprisingly showed a simple and honest expression, then he touched his head and said no more.
"Li Guoqiang, in order to avoid risks, is willing to send himself to jail. If you had his ruthlessness, you wouldn’t be hanging around in front of every day. You’d have set up your own empire and beco a powerful figure by now."
Lin Zhenbei’s face, usually resolute, now showed a gentle expression as he spoke regretfully.
"Li Guoqiang indeed does things by any ans necessary. As long as he can achieve his goals, no matter how much suffering and hardship the process entails, he fears nothing. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have amassed such substantial strength and capital in such a short ti."
Although Long Wu’s face was filled with disgust, he genuinely admired Li Guoqiang in his heart.
His powerful body, illuminated by the moonlight, looked like a demonic figure, appearing extrely terrifying.
On the other side, after Lin Yanan hung up the phone, she bit her red lip tightly, the anxiety and panic on her pretty face growing more intense.
Then, the hesitation that had been wavering in her cold eyes instantly disappeared, replaced by a look of determination.
It seed that at this mont, she had made a decision that once caused her intense struggle.
Thinking of this, she got up and left the office, and after stepping out of the club’s gate, her cold and charming figure gradually disappeared into the night.
She didn’t drive herself but got into a taxi and soon arrived at the Yunxi Residence Club.
Lin Yanan hadn’t inford Wang Guohao in advance that she was coming but instead walked alone into the elevator and went to the top floor, standing outside the door of a presidential suite.
She then pushed the door open without hesitation and saw two people sitting on the sofa in the suite.
Sheng Tianlun was sitting in the middle, while a man of a similar age was sitting beside him.
At this mont, Lin Yanduo was standing by, holding a cup and pouring them drinks.
When she saw soone coming in, she imdiately put down the cup and moved back a few steps, finally standing in a corner.
When Sheng Tianlun saw Lin Yanan arrived, the burning look in his eyes was undisguised.
He smiled and said, "Yanan, you’re here? Co over and have a drink with ."
The man beside him was suddenly stunned, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.
He was clearly stunned by the slender and graceful, stunningly beautiful woman exuding a cool aura in front of him.
This man’s na was Zhang Wenbin, and his father was Zhang Jiduan, deputy secretary of the Longcheng Commission for Discipline Inspection.
He wasn’t very familiar with Sheng Tianlun before.
Until once, they had a conflict over a trivial matter, and Sheng Tianlun directly broke a few of his teeth.
As they say, no fight, no friendship; since then, the two had gradually beco friends.
Moreover, their fathers worked together on the municipal party team, and their temperants matched well.
Thus, he and Sheng Tianlun gradually beca close allies.
Only then did Zhang Wenbin understand why Sheng Tianlun, a playboy like a sea king, who used to change won almost every few days, had recently beco so fascinated with the daughter of Li Guoqiang.
As expected, she’s an extraordinary beauty.
No wonder she can make Sheng Tianlun so enamored that he behaves like a devoted admirer.
Lin Yanan, upon hearing this, still had a cold face; her eyes were calm as water as she spoke mildly, "I don’t usually drink."
Hearing this, Sheng Tianlun’s face beca instantly gloomy, and he spoke with a hint of anger in his voice, "Then why did you co to see ?"
"I only agreed to co; I never said I agreed to anything else. We agreed beforehand that as long as I ca, you wouldn’t kick my father when he’s down."
Lin Yanan’s voice remained cold, seemingly without a trace of emotional fluctuation.
"You do realize you’re asking for a favor, don’t you? Yet, does your attitude reflect that of soone seeking help?"
As Sheng Tianlun spoke, the anger on his face intensified, and his voice trembled.
Seeing the tension in the atmosphere, Zhang Wenbin quickly tried to diate, saying:
"Miss Lin, since you’re already here, why not have a drink with us, at least make a friend, then perhaps it will be easier to continue the topics ahead."
Upon hearing this, Lin Yanan slowly walked to the table, filled a glass with wine, and drank it all in one go.
The alcohol’s strength wasn’t high, but it was over thirty degrees. Drinking it all at once made her throat feel as if it were on fire.
"Is this enough?" Lin Yanan’s voice slightly trembled, but her slender body remained upright, and her beautiful face revealed an icy expression.
The displeasure on Sheng Tianlun’s face beca more pronounced, and he spoke with anger, "Since you are so unwilling, there’s nothing more to say between us."
"What more do you want from ? I’ve already co, and I’ve already drunk. My character is like this; I can’t fake being fawning or slick."
Then, she paused for a mont and continued:
"Do you think I ca here really hoping you’d get my dad out? No, I never dared hope for that; I only ask one thing—that you don’t kick him when he’s down during such a difficult ti."
After she finished speaking, Lin Yanan turned around, intending to leave the presidential suite.
"Lin Yanan, how dare you! If you step out of that room, do you believe I won’t use all my power to ensure Li Guoqiang rots in jail!"
At this mont, Sheng Tianlun suddenly stood up, screaming hysterically at Lin Yanan.
