Flight attendant Li Jiaojiao pretended to be sick and asked Lin Fan for help. Although Lin Fan saw through her act, he still helped her and took her back to her apartnt.
Lin Fan wanted to see what exactly she was up to.
It wasn’t until now that Lin Fan discovered that Li Jiaojiao had put sothing in his water.
What would happen if he drank that glass of water?
Li Jiaojiao watched secretly as Lin Fan picked up the glass, appearing as if he was about to drink, her eyes filled with anticipation.
Yet Lin Fan didn’t drink the water but put the glass back down instead.
He turned and walked to the side of Li Jiaojiao’s bed, took the towel, and smiled, saying, "Are you feeling any better now?"
Li Jiaojiao said, "It still hurts a bit, but I took so dicine and should be fine after resting for a while. Lin Fan, why aren’t you drinking the water?"
Lin Fan said, "Hold on a mont, let put away the towel for you."
Lin Fan returned the towel to the bathroom, then walked out again, and said suddenly, "I just rembered, Li Jiaojiao, don’t you have a brother nad Li Dalong, who’s a manager at a restaurant?"
Li Jiaojiao was taken aback: "You know my brother?"
Lin Fan smiled and said, "Yes, I went to your brother’s restaurant for a al that day, and after he learned about my identity, he asked to look after you. I didn’t expect to run into you today."
Li Jiaojiao was a bit surprised and muttered, "My brother asked you to look after ?"
Lin Fan said, "Yes, it seems your brother is very concerned about you. After learning my identity, the first thing he thought of was you, and he even waived my bill. By the way, I didn’t actually tell you the truth before. My identity is the new chairman of Celestial Aviation."
Li Jiaojiao was stunned, but not because of Lin Fan’s identity, rather because of what Lin Fan had said about her brother.
Lin Fan observed her and smiled, "You don’t seem surprised. Could it be that you knew my identity all along?"
Li Jiaojiao snapped back to reality and imdiately beca a little flustered: "No, I only just found out now that you’re the chairman!"
Lin Fan chuckled: "Alright then, you’re not feeling well. Would you like to contact your brother to co and look after you?"
Li Jiaojiao quickly said, "In fact, when I went to the bathroom earlier, I had already contacted your brother for you. Your brother said he’ll be here soon, he should arrive shortly, you don’t mind I took this upon myself, right?"
Li Jiaojiao was a bit surprised but tried hard to hide it: "It’s alright, let him co."
Lin Fan said, "Then you rest for a bit yourself. If there’s nothing else, I’ll be on my way. Oh, by the way, I am actually quite thirsty now."
Saying this, Lin Fan walked over, picked up the glass, and pretended he was about to take a sip.
Li Jiaojiao watched as Lin Fan was about to drink the water, bit her lip, and shouted, "Chairman, don’t drink it!"
Lin Fan wasn’t actually going to drink, he just wanted to make Li Jiaojiao expose herself, either by her own admission under pressure or he would expose her himself.
"What’s the matter?" Lin Fan asked.
Li Jiaojiao blushed, "This glass of water can’t be drunk, I... I added sothing to it."
Lin Fan nodded, "What did you add?"
Li Jiaojiao stamred, "A kind of drug... If you drink it, you’ll fall into a deep sleep, like being drunk."
Lin Fan’s expression remained calm, "Why did you do this?"
"Because..." Li Jiaojiao lowered her head, afraid to continue.
Lin Fan smiled and said, "It’s alright, speak up. For your brother’s sake, as long as you tell the truth, I won’t pursue it. But if you refuse, I’ll have no choice but to call the police. After all, I’ve already recorded our conversation."
Li Jiaojiao was shocked and quickly said, "Don’t call the police!"
Lin Fan said, "Then you speak, I’m listening."
Li Jiaojiao hesitated for a mont before saying, "A while ago, I t a wealthy man on a plane. We chatted a bit, and when he learned my dad was sick and needed a sum of money, he offered my contact information, saying he could try to help . I originally thought he was just trying to hit on , as we flight attendants often et such people, so I didn’t think much of it. Today he suddenly contacted , asking to do sothing for him. Upon success, he would give half a million. I thought with that half a million, my dad’s illness could be treated, so..."
Lin Fan said, "What did he want to do?"
Li Jiaojiao said, "He wanted to get close to you, find a way to lure you here, then drug you unconscious, creating the fake scene that you assaulted and I knocked you out, and take photos for him... Chairman, when I first heard it was you he was targeting, I refused, but..."
Lin Fan chuckled, "But you couldn’t resist the temptation of money."
Li Jiaojiao’s face turned red with sha.
Lin Fan’s heart sank. Whoever was targeting him was really sinister, attempting to embroil him in a scandal.
If Li Jiaojiao had succeeded, those kinds of photos in the hands of others would surely beco a big news story, and he would be ruined, unable to clear his na even if he jumped into the Yellow River.
If not for his top-level insight, he would indeed find it hard to defend!
Under normal circumstances, who would think a flight attendant from his own company, soone he’d never t, would plot against him in such a way!
If this vicious plan succeeded, the consequences would be unimaginable. The first to suffer would surely be Celestial Aviation’s stock price, which might face a catastrophic drop.
Lin Fan coldly laughed in his heart, suspecting this was aid at Mortal Group.
Soone wanted to take down Mortal Group!
It seed the Mortal Group’s market value skyrocketing by 20 billion over two days had made so people envious.
As for who it was, Lin Fan had already made up his mind to catch him.
Li Jiaojiao said shafully, "Chairman, I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have done sothing so against my conscience for money. I’m really sorry..."
Lin Fan said, "If you’re really sorry, then help with one thing, tell who this person is?"
Li Jiaojiao said, "I don’t know his na, I only have his phone number. We agreed that once it was done, I’d give him the photos and he’d give the money."
Lin Fan said, "Alright, contact him now, tell him you’ve succeeded, and arrange to et him."
Li Jiaojiao made an "oh" sound, took out her phone, took a new breath, dialed a number, and said, "Hello, I’ve succeeded. Lin Fan is still unconscious, lying on my bed, the photos have been taken as you asked. I don’t want anything to go wrong later, let’s do the exchange now."
The other end was silent for a mont, and then a male voice said, "I need to verify. Send a photo of him."
Li Jiaojiao said, "Sorry, once I see the money, I will send the photo to you. We agreed it would be cash before the goods."
The other end was silent for another mont before saying, "I’m having dinner at Starlight Restaurant, co over."
The call ended.
Li Jiaojiao looked up at Lin Fan.
Lin Fan said, "Give the phone, get ready, let’s go to Starlight Restaurant."
Li Jiaojiao said, "My brother is on his way, I’ll call him and tell him to head back."
Lin Fan said, "No need, I didn’t actually call your brother."
He didn’t have Li Dalong’s phone number at all; he was just deceiving Li Jiaojiao earlier to create psychological pressure.
As he spoke, Lin Fan took Li Jiaojiao’s phone to prevent her from tipping anyone off.
Li Jiaojiao broke into a cold sweat, realizing she had been played by Lin Fan. Damn, she initially plotted against Lin Fan, but who’d have thought Lin Fan would counter her at every turn. She simply couldn’t win against Lin Fan. After all, he was a chairman; their levels of intelligence simply weren’t on the sa plane...
