Jiang Feng wandered near the lobby of the Golden Lion Hotel for twenty minutes, casually grabbed sothing to eat, then bought a phone and got a new SIM card.
He had a phone before, but it went missing during the month he was kidnapped, so now he has a new number.
He sent a ssage to Bai Zhiqing's phone, telling her he was downstairs and to contact him anyti if needed.
At this mont, Bai Zhiqing had almost finished dining with Ma Chi and noticed that President Ma was focused on idle chatter, without any intention of discussing the contract, which made her sowhat displeased.
Especially since the other party seed quite interested in her personal life, knowing not only about her nominal marriage but also curious about her current situation, which increased her displeasure.
"President Ma, I've had enough to eat." Bai Zhiqing decided not to waste any more ti and politely reminded him to talk business.
"Then let's have so more wine." Ma Chi said, pretending not to get the hint, and picked up a bottle of expensive Lafite, standing up to pour Bai Zhiqing a drink.
Bai Zhiqing wasn't good with alcohol; in fact, she had never drunk alone with a man. When she saw Ma Chi pouring more, she wanted to refuse, but considering the contract was important to her and offending Ma Chi might make all her efforts go to waste, she had no choice but to let him fill her glass with red wine.
However--
What Bai Zhiqing didn't expect was that after finishing the whole glass of wine, Ma Chi wanted to pour her another.
"President Ma, I really can't drink any more. Besides, you should take a look at our contract. If there are no issues, it's best to sign it today." This ti, Bai Zhiqing refused and directly reminded Ma Chi about the contract.
"No rush, we'll discuss the contract after finishing this glass."
Ma Chi smiled, knowing full well that Bai Zhiqing couldn't handle much more and was reaching her limit.
Under the influence of alcohol, Bai Zhiqing's flawless, delicate oval face turned an enticing rosy hue, her breathing heavy and hot, making her breathtakingly beautiful, which only fueled his desire.
Hearing Ma Chi's words, Bai Zhiqing hesitated for a mont but ultimately didn't refuse. The last glass of wine left her dizzy and seeing double.
Bai Zhiqing quickly drank so water, shook her head, trying to clear her mind, then reached for her bag, took out a few contracts, and said, "President Ma, please look at the contract."
"The lighting isn't good here. I'll go over to the balcony to check it, and if there aren't any issues, I'll sign it, and you can take it with you."
Ma Chi said with a smile, his gaze on Bai Zhiqing shining with a calculated glint, as if luring her step by step into a trap he had ticulously set.
"Alright, I'll go wash my face first."
Hearing this, Bai Zhiqing seized the chance to head to the restroom, intending to splash so cold water on her face to sober up.
As soon as she spoke, Bai Zhiqing stood up, only to feel even dizzier, nearly falling.
Ma Chi quickly reached out, wrapping his arm around Bai Zhiqing's slender waist and supporting her elegant shoulders. Slling her unique fragrance, he felt a rush of adrenaline but restrained himself, feigning concern as he asked, "Miss Bai, are you alright?"
"I'm fine." Bai Zhiqing instinctively pulled away, taking a step back to maintain distance from Ma Chi.
"Do you need my support to walk over?" Ma Chi asked very gentlemanly.
"No need." Bai Zhiqing placed the contract on the table, and then forced herself towards the restroom.
Ma Chi took off his suit, sitting on the sofa, watching Bai Zhiqing's graceful figure with a sly smile on his lips.
Half a minute later, Bai Zhiqing finished washing her face, feeling a little more clear-headed, returned to the living room, and saw that Ma Chi had left the dining table, sitting on the sofa by the balcony, with the contracts casually placed on the table, showing no intention of reviewing them.
"President Ma, have you reviewed the contracts? You can ask if you have any questions," Bai Zhiqing said, frowning slightly.
"Miss Bai, you seem a bit drunk. How about I help you to the bed to rest a bit, and we can talk when you feel better?" Ma Chi replied evasively, staring directly at Bai Zhiqing, desire rising in his eyes.
"President Ma, I'm already sober." Bai Zhiqing realized what he intended to do, warily watching Ma Chi.
"Miss Bai, as far as I know, the Fengming Trading Company you're with is just a small front company, essentially playing middleman gas. Do you think, as the Executive Vice President and CFO of the Jian Group, I'd seriously be interested in such small-scale business?" Ma Chi asked with a smile.
"President Ma, what do you an?" Bai Zhiqing felt played and asked angrily.
"Moreover, although you're just a small supervisor at Fengming, I can see you're highly capable. Soone like you shouldn't be limited to a pointless front company. I'll give you an opportunity—agree, and I'll bring you into Jiang Group. You must know Jian Group's financial power and status in Binhai."
Ma Chi continued, then directly stood up and walked straight to Bai Zhiqing, attempting to touch her pretty face.
"President Ma, please behave yourself!" Bai Zhiqing imdiately hit away his filthy hand in disgust, "Since you have no genuine intent to cooperate, let's not waste any more of each other's ti—goodbye!"
"Wait!" Ma Chi sneered as Bai Zhiqing turned to leave, "Do you know what it ans if you walk away now? It ans completely offending , and if I want Fengming Trading to fail, it's as simple as saying a word!"
"Ma Chi, what exactly do you want?" Bai Zhiqing turned back in anger, glaring at Ma Chi.
She knew that with Ma Chi's position in the Jian Group, accomplishing what he said was not difficult, but Fengming Trading was everything she and Nangong Qingcheng had poured their effort into, and she couldn't allow Ma Chi to ruin it.
"It's simple; I told you earlier. The path before you is an opportunity to beco my woman, my mistress; I can help you rise to prominence, join Jian Group in a high position, and if you wish to remain at Fengming, I can also invest in it—on one condition, that your body is mine and mine alone!"
After brewing this plan for so long, Ma Chi finally revealed his true colors, looking at Bai Zhiqing's alluring figure with a wicked smile.
"Despicable!"
Bai Zhiqing's face flushed with anger, and she turned to leave.
Hmm?
Seeing this, Ma Chi was also annoyed. In his plan, through coercion and temptation today, it was a surefire way to win over this attractive young widow. Now that she was slipping away, how could he let her go?
Frustrated, a wicked thought rose in his mind, and he got up and lunged at Bai Zhiqing!
