"Sir... here's the hot water you ordered."
The waiter put down the glass and hurriedly turned to leave.
To her, the relationship between these three people was simply too complicated, almost unimaginable.
Xiao Feng leaned back in his chair, casually picked up the glass, took a sip, and said, "Let's get to the point, what do you need for?"
"Darling, tell him," Du Linlang looked at Gao Panpan and threw over a flirtatious glance.
Gao Panpan's slender body trembled slightly and said, "Reliable information indicates that tonight the Bai family will station people outside the Du Family estate with the intent to create a car accident while Du Family mbers head to the opening ceremony tomorrow."
"Go on," Xiao Feng said with a smile.
"Previously, Bai Yongge went to the Lanyue Group, which you already know. I analyzed it as a test," Gao Panpan said in a low voice. "If sothing happens to the Du family tomorrow, then we are considered trustworthy.
If nothing happens, it proves we are not sincere in our cooperation with the Bai family.
Otherwise, the Bai family has no reason to inform us of this plan in advance."
As soon as she finished speaking, Du Linlang gazed admiringly at Gao Panpan, pressing her hands to her chin and exaggeratingly said, "Darling, you're amazing! Your analysis is absolutely spot on!"
"..." Gao Panpan.
Can't a person speak properly here?
Xiao Feng directly chose to ignore Du Linlang, with a thoughtful look in his eyes.
Without much thought, he knew it must be Bai Huanyu's idea, and even the follow-up actions were easy to foresee.
Once the Du family mbers got into a car accident on the way, the news at the opening ceremony would surely be sensationally publicized.
At that ti, Du Qingyue, being a mber of the Du family, would face difficult choices whether to remain on site or head to the hospital imdiately.
As he pondered, Du Linlang said, "Speaking of which, I should really thank you for bringing such a good talent to .
To be honest, every decision and contact with the Bai family has been handled by her, and so far, her performance has been very satisfactory to ."
Saying this, she turned her gaze to Gao Panpan.
Gao Panpan raised her hands to her chest, palms outward, seemingly ready to fend off so "pervert" at any mont.
"Since you've been handling everything on your own, I'd like to hear your thoughts first," Xiao Feng said blandly.
Gao Panpan pondered for a mont and replied, "I think our 'cooperation' with the Bai family should end here unless President Du really plans to betray and push his own family into the fire pit.
This so-called car accident is unlikely to cause casualties this ti, but who knows what could happen in the future."
Du Linlang stomped her foot, obviously unhappy, and said, "Darling, haven't you always called 'Sweetheart'?
Why are you calling President Du now?"
"Can you please shut up?" Xiao Feng and Gao Panpan said in unison.
Du Linlang bit her red lips and nodded, "Alright, I'll listen to you and won't speak from now on.
Sigh... it's hard to choose between the palm and the back of the hand, since I love both of you."
"..." Xiao Feng.
"..." Gao Panpan.
A long silence ensued. Xiao Feng looked at Gao Panpan and slowly said, "Your thoughts are basically in line with mine.
However, I'm curious, during this period of cooperation, hasn't the Bai family given any benefits?"
"They have," Gao Panpan admitted.
"How much money did they give?"
"Not money, but channels," Gao Panpan said seriously, "According to President Du, the Lanyue Group's expansion is a bit too extensive. Even acquiring tens of millions from the Bai family wouldn't have an imdiate effect when invested.
So, it's better to take the opportunity to expand channels and seek long-term benefits."
Without comnting on this, Xiao Feng shifted the topic, "I'll take care of the people sent by the Bai family, anything else?"
Gao Panpan glanced at Du Linlang and shook her head, "No more."
"In the future, for such trivial matters, just call. There's no need for all this back-and-forth," Xiao Feng said to Du Linlang, "The difference between phone bills and taxi fare is not just a bit."
With a very hurt tone, Du Linlang said, "When I said I missed you, did you think I was joking?
Honestly, only one song can express my feelings right now."
After saying that, she actually began to sing.
"The kind of heartbreak I endure for you, you'll never understand.
Why do I force myself to love everything about you?
You push away, fiercely retreating, closing the door silently to count my tears.
Knowing full well..."
Xiao Feng interrupted, "Alright, alright, you're singing it well. I'm leaving first."
Having sung Xiao Feng away, Du Linlang sighed and said, "Panpan, rember what your sister told you, if you can avoid loving soone, then by all ans don't, or else I'm the best example."
Gao Panpan felt bewildered by this, as if it were said in jest.
After a mont's thought, she still said, "President Du, I think there's a difference between liking and loving.
It's like a flower. Liking it might an picking it off casually.
But loving it ans watering it, fertilizing it, allowing it to bloom more brilliantly.
In short, liking is about possession, while loving is about tolerance and giving."
The waiter behind the counter listened to this "poisonous chicken soup" and felt poisoned to death on the spot.
But Du Linlang's eyes lit up, "Well said! As a reward, let hug you."
Gao Panpan widened her eyes, having no chance to resist because Du Linlang had already "reached out her devilish claws" halfway through speaking.
Du Linlang grabbed her right out of her seat, then began to spin around, her smile radiant.
But being held, Gao Panpan was very frustrated, repeatedly shouting, "Put down," but to no avail.
Behind the counter, the waiter was completely stunned.
"Ding-dong!"
The notification sound rang.
She opened her phone to see a ssage from her boyfriend: "Darling, what are you doing?"
Looking at Du Linlang and Gao Panpan still spinning, she typed and replied, "Watching 'Er Ren Zhuan' (a comic folk-rap).
Also, don't call 'darling' anymore."
"What's wrong? Did I do sothing wrong again?"
"No, it's just that I don't like that term anymore, let's use another one."
"Then... can I call you 'Sweetheart'?"
"..." The waiter.
She clearly rembered that "sweetheart" had appeared from the mouth of the masculine-dressed woman over there.
At that mont, a new ssage flashed on the screen.
"Sweetheart, why aren't you talking? Is there a custor at work? Let's chat during lunch."
The waiter closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and typed, "Let's break up."
...
anwhile, Du Qingyue also received a copied deploynt map from Du Zhixiang.
She called to ask, "Is the map real?"
"Absolutely!"
Du Zhixiang firmly replied, then sighed, "Qingyue, it's ti to tell you the truth.
The reason I'm in the Bai family is because I knew early on that they were planning sothing and had thoughts of plotting against us, the Du family.
Fortunately, my efforts weren't in vain. Last night as they held a eting, I eavesdropped outside and sketched out this map. You must be careful.
I can't talk anymore, soone's coming. Make your preparations quickly."
