The Favored Heiress-Chapter 783: Your Name is So Unsophisticated
Chapter 783: Chapter 783: Your Name is So Unsophisticated
Bai Yan agreed without hesitation, "Alright, let it be her."
Xi Luo and Gu Chenn exchanged glances, Flame Alliance K really was the boss’s darling, casually able to replace members.
Luoyu concealed her astonishment and moved behind Li Qiao, bending slightly, "Ma’am, this..." Is it appropriate?
Her hesitant words still on her lips when Bai Yan’s doubtful inquiry came through the earpiece, "What two characters make up Luoyu? Why can’t I find her in the citizen system?"
Li Qiao looked sideways at Luoyu, gesturing to the phone to have her speak for herself.
Luoyu felt as if she were being pushed onto a stage, and seeing Li Qiao’s serious expression, she finally muttered in resignation, "Then you try... Huang Cuiying."
A deadly silence spread throughout the conference room.
Immediately thereafter—
"Hahaha, holy shit, Huang Cuiying, your real name is actually Huang Cuiying, that’s so damn rustic..."
Li Qiao supported her forehead with her fingers, glancing up at Gu Chenn, unable to suppress a smile.
In fact, the four assistants had been used to calling each other by code names for many years, but each person had their own real name.
Huang Cuiying was Luoyu’s real name.
At this moment, Gu Chenn was laughing hysterically, as if he had heard the joke of the century.
Luoyu, expressionless, "Is it that funny?"
Her gaze dropped to the teacup, contemplating whether to splash its contents on Gu Chenn’s face.
Gu Chenn ran his hands through his hair, cleared his throat, and put on a straight face as he shook his head, but in the next instant, "Not funny... Hahaha!"
Luoyu: "..."
Xi Luo glanced coldly at Gu Chenn, "Do you also want to be expelled?"
Not clear about Luoyu and Li Qiao’s relationship?
Gu Chenn instantly straightened up, placing his hands on his knees, behaving himself properly.
Following that, Bai Yan’s deep voice rang out again, clearly struggling, "Z can’t be expelled."
Gu Chenn’s eyes lit up, suddenly feeling a sense of proud satisfaction.
Then— frёewebηovel.cѳm
Bai Yan sighed, "Qiao, didn’t you say he was still useful? If you really want to expel him, then you’ll have to take responsibility for recommending someone."
Gu Chenn: "..."
Screw feeling proud and satisfied.
After a minor disturbance, Ye Jing was inexplicably expelled from the Flame Alliance.
She stood there in a daze, with tea leaves still clinging to her skirt. Bai Yan wasn’t present, but the phone call was still ongoing, and she didn’t dare say anything more.
Bai Yan, when his bottom line was crossed, a fate worse than death was considered light.
But how did Li Qiao... become Flame Alliance K?
Ye Jing, with her lofty pride bolstered by her good family background and connections, seldom regarded other Flame Alliance members highly.
Now that things were out of her control, all she wanted was to meet with Bai Yan as soon as possible.
She walked to the opposite side of the conference table, wanting to pick up her coat and leave the place.
After taking a few steps, Xi Luo slowly stood up, leaning against the conference table, her arms crossed as she looked at Ye Jing, "Yo, what’s with that expression?"
Ye Jing’s form wavered, her eyes filled with murky light, "Xi Luo, what’s there for you to be proud of? Even if she really is Flame Alliance K, if she could remove me today, the next one could very well be you."
Xi Luo’s fearless smile emerged as she glanced sideways at Li Qiao, "Even if I were removed, it wouldn’t be a big deal... I could just get a position at the International Club, right?"
International Club...
Ye Jing’s expression turned complex, suddenly remembering how she had asked Steven to make a choice just a short time ago.
The power of the International Club... is on par with the Flame Alliance.
And to this day, no one knows who the association leader is, well-hidden indeed.
In just that brief instant, Gu Chenn made a startling statement, "Joining the International Club isn’t a bad idea, either. I’ve heard... the leader of International Club is K’s little brother, right?"
He was just showing off.
After all, Shang Shaoyan’s relationship with the International Club was no secret, so what’s wrong with bragging for Li Qiao?
Hearing this, Ye Jing felt even more ridiculous and was about to speak sarcastically when the door of the conference room suddenly opened.
Steven carried the contract back and respectfully placed it in front of Li Qiao, "The contract is now effective, and from today, all overseas telecommunications and financial services of BTI are exclusively authorized to your fund company."
Li Qiao pushed the contract to Xi Luo and tapped the table with her fingernail, speaking casually, "As the largest telecom company in the British Imperial, if you want to dominate the market alone, you’ll need a solid backing."
Steven blinked, clearly not understanding Li Qiao’s implication, "You mean..."
"Charlman is not the only choice." Li Qiao looked straight ahead with a cool gaze, cracked a smile, stood up, and said indifferently, "For instance, the Archbishop."
Ten minutes later, Li Qiao and Xi Luo, along with others, left the BTI headquarters.
After getting in the car, they saw two sturdy men in black forcibly taking Ye Jing away.
Li Qiao caught the glimpse of a silver skull emblem ironed onto the men’s shirt collars, marking them as Flame Alliance’s.
Her eyes darkened, and she dialed Bai Yan’s number, "I want to know the channels through which she purchased synthetic cannabinoids on the black market."
Bai Yan exhaled a plume of smoke, "Sure, anything else?"
Li Qiao looked out the window, her tone cold, "All her business collaborations with the Charlman Family are to be terminated, I’ll cover the losses."
Bai Yan was silent for a few seconds, "As you wish, Xi Luo has taken over transnational business operations, tell her how you want it done."
"Okay, hanging up now."
"Hold on." Bai Yan flicked away some ash, his deep eyes gleaming with a cold light, "How do you want to deal with her?"
Li Qiao didn’t hesitate for too long before giving a cool answer, "Find evidence of her purchasing drugs and hand it over to the International Drug Enforcement Agency."
Bai Yan clicked his tongue, laughed dismissively, and joked, "How merciful."
Li Qiao ignored him and hung up the phone, then closed her eyes to rest.
Aside from being arrogant and condescending, Ye Jing had not crossed her bottom line.
Even becoming friendly with Xiao Yeyan did not warrant a death sentence.
Yet, unknowingly aiding in Yun Lih’s poisoning and drug dealing, these charges were enough to keep her locked away for life.
...
In Myst Town, Li Qiao returned to the Medical Alliance without informing Shang Yu.
In the parking lot, Gu Chenn and Luoyu got out of the car, hiding to one side, smoking and bickering.
To summarize, Gu Chenn disapproved of Luoyu smoking, while Luoyu couldn’t stand Gu Chenn’s ponytail.
A classic case of mutual aversion.
Elsewhere, in the back seat of the car, Xi Luo hadn’t moved from her spot by the door, reclining in her seat, she raised an eyebrow in question, "What’s your plan?"
"Plan for what?" Li Qiao counterquestioned quietly and calmly, showing no sign of irregularity.
Xi Luo looked into her eyes for a long while before patting her head, "Kid, you’ve got so many people around you, there’s no need to shoulder everything alone, understand?"
Li Qiao calmly looked out the window, curving her lips slightly, "Of course."
"Then..." Xi Luo pondered for a few seconds, "The matter of Xiao Yehui poisoning Yun Lih, how do you plan to resolve it?"
Li Qiao turned her gaze to meet Xi Luo’s, her eyes clear, "Detoxify."
Xi Luo leaned in closer, somewhat incredulously, "That’s it? What if you can’t detoxify, you’re just going to let them go find Xiao Yehui afterwards? The enemy is already at your doorstep, and you’re still so composed?"
