Spoiled by the CEO after amnesia!-Chapter 113 - 111 The Delicate Bloom in His Palm
The well-tailored suit fabric accentuated the man’s towering physique, which possessed the golden ratio.
Clearly, the man inside had heard every word and sentence of the meeting happening outside, crystal clear.
Just now, upon hearing the familiar voice of a girl come through the curtain, he couldn’t help but slightly shift his body.
In these three months, his anger at her leaving without saying goodbye had peaked. Yet, when he heard that endearing voice, it subsided once again.
Over the past three months, the anxious feelings he harbored while investigating her whereabouts domestically seemed to calm down the instant she spoke.
The girl’s voice remained as before—crisp, sweet, and captivating, like the babbling of a brook, but now it carried a few more notes of confidence and independence.
She spoke clearly and logically, word by word, phrase by phrase. 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖
He truly couldn’t imagine that the girl speaking was the same frail, boneless kitten that once curled up in his embrace.
The tender flower bud had finally begun to bloom, hadn’t it?
But no matter how brilliantly it bloomed, it was still the delicate flower in the palm of his hand.
This time in H City, he was determined to completely reclaim her heart, never again letting her entertain the thought of escaping him!
At that moment, President Yu spoke up.
Shedding his haughty demeanor from outside, President Yu spoke with respect, "Mr. Huo, everything has been done according to your instructions."
Huo Zhenyang gathered his thoughts, stood up, his figure tall and straight like an unshakable tower, his eyes carrying a hint of light indifference, "President Yu, you have worked hard."
President Yu quickly shook his head, "Mr. Huo, there’s no need for such courtesy, fulfilling your request is part of my duties."
Although Boda Group held significant influence in H City, when compared to the scale and level of the Huo Group, the difference wasn’t just a little.
The young and capable big Boss of the Huo Group excelled in skill and ability, in no way inferior to the older generation in the business world.
Even in the northern business circles, his name was well-known.
All over China, there wasn’t a prestigious family that didn’t want to foster a good relationship with the Huo Family.
To be able to cling to the Huo Group was a dream sought after by all businessmen.
Three days ago, when Huo Zhenyang arrived in H City on his private plane and appeared discreetly at the Boda Group headquarters, President Yu was incredibly astonished.
This titan of the domestic business sector, whom other enterprises couldn’t even hope to curry favor with, had personally come to his office.
But what stupefied President Yu even more was yet to come.
This young ruler of the business world had come to H City in person, with the request that President Yu agree to cooperate with Liang Tao and invest in the amusement park business.
Everything that happened at the bidding meeting today, including deliberately asking that girl a question, then accepting her suggestion, and finally agreeing to the partnership...
All of it was carried out by President Yu as Huo Zhenyang had instructed.
After hearing President Yu’s flattery, Huo Zhenyang’s eyelashes flickered slightly, and his handsome face slowly turned to face the cityscape outside the floor-to-ceiling window:
"For the matters going forward, I’ll have to ask President Yu to continue to take care."
President Yu nodded, "I understand, Mr. Huo, don’t worry."
——————
After the meeting concluded successfully, Boda Group was willing to form a joint venture, increasing Liang Tao’s workload as he began to get busy with the amusement park project.
Since Uncle Leung was busy, Jiayi was afraid of disturbing him and didn’t go back over the weekends. She stayed at school for weeks, luckily Su Yan also had nowhere to go during the weekends, so there was still company in the dormitory.
Without realizing it, another two months hastily slipped by.
In the past weeks, Jiayi felt something was strange. Although she stayed at school and hadn’t returned to the Liang Family home over the weekends, if it were before, Liang Tao would still call every Friday to ask her how she was doing in school, whether she ate well, and if she was lacking anything.
But lately, Uncle Leung had been very strange, not calling at all.
When she called the Liang Family home, the nanny Auntie Cao said Liang Tao had been immersed in work at the company and had not been contactable.
That afternoon, Jiayi returned to the dormitory with her textbooks. Before she stepped through the door, a gust of wind rushed by from behind her.
Liang Anya, who had come at some point, pulled on her arm. Her face was dripping with sweat, as if she was very anxious, "Xiaoyi, have you finished your classes for today? Come back with me."
"What’s wrong, Anya?" Jiayi was startled.
Liang Anya was panting, "I haven’t been able to contact Daddy for days! I couldn’t even reach him by phone these past few days. Since my brother went on a trip out of town and hasn’t returned, the nanny just called me, saying Daddy hasn’t come home for days. When he returned home yesterday, he was dead drunk and locked himself in his room, and he has not come out since! I’m a bit worried and want you to accompany me to check on him!"
Hearing this, Jiayi’s concerns from the past days all surged out, and she had a bad premonition. She could not bother with the fact that she still had classes in the afternoon, asked Su Yan to help her ask for leave, and immediately rushed out of school with Liang Anya.
The two hailed a cab, and, urging the driver, they raced back to the Liang Family home.
As soon as they entered, Nanny Auntie Cao came running up in a panic, "Miss, you’re finally back, please go check on Master——"
Jiayi and Liang Anya rushed to Liang Tao’s bedroom door, knocking on it:
"Uncle Leung, open the door, it’s Xiaoyi!"
"Daddy, what’s wrong with you, don’t scare me! It’s Anya, please open the door!"
Yet inside the bedroom, there was dead silence, not a single sound.
"Auntie Cao, where’s the spare key for the room?!" Jiayi, still somewhat calm, called out to Auntie Cao.
Auntie Cao answered anxiously, "The spare key was also taken inside by the Master!"
Liang Anya had always been coddled like a princess by her dad, sheltered from the slightest hardship. When she heard this, she sensed something was very wrong and started crying out of fear, not knowing what to do.
Jiayi, without hesitation, instructed firmly, "Go call the property security immediately!"
Auntie Cao paused for a moment then ran off quickly and returned in three minutes with two sturdy security guards.
Under Jiayi’s direction, the two security guards, with two bangs, broke down the door to the bedroom!
The bedroom was filled with a thick smell of alcohol, with several bottles scattered on the ground!
Liang Tao, who had not been seen for a while, had lost a lot of weight, his chin covered in stubble, slumped on the sofa, looking very disheveled.
Next to the wine bottles on the coffee table, there was a little white bottle.
Jiayi rushed in, picked up the little bottle, and broke out in a cold sweat—it was a bottle of sleeping pills. But upon closer examination, fortunately, it had not been opened yet, and Uncle Leung must have not taken any!
Liang Anya also saw everything clearly, burst into tears, and threw herself in, asking the nanny to pour a cup of cold boiled water and helped her father to drink it, "Daddy, what are you doing? What on earth has happened?"
Liang Tao took a few sips of the cold water and woke up from his drunken stupor. His eyes were cloudy as he spoke with a tone of sorrow, "It’s over, it’s over, Boda Group has suddenly pulled the investment... Anya, no matter how much I pleaded with the Boss, he refused to reinvest... But I’ve already paid the land and the deposit to buy the entertainment equipment from America... Without Boda’s support, this business can’t be completed. If the following funds don’t come through, not only will the amusement park business be ruined, but Hongtai Real Estate will also be frozen by the bank, and all of Daddy’s efforts will collapse..."
