Chapter 151 Ling Zhen, You Are Smarter Than Before

Before going to the southwest, Ling Zhen took Ling Tianhua to the hospital for a physical examination. Apart from a slightly high blood pressure, there was no major problem.

It was Ruan Xingzhe's turn to be on duty in the outpatient clinic recently. He was about to go to the bathroom when he suddenly stopped and saw a familiar figure standing in front of him.

He took two steps forward with a confident smile, waved and said hello, "Ling Zhen, it really is you."

When Ling Zhen raised her eyes, she met a pair of deep brown eyes. She stood there for three seconds before she recognized who it was.

His hair was a little short and neatly trimmed, and he was wearing a white surgeon's coat, giving people a clean and tidy impression.

"Hello, Dr. Ruan."

She was polite and friendly.

Due to the special nature of the doctor's profession, and the fact that Ruan Xingzhe had taken good care of her when she was in the hospital before, she couldn't help but feel more friendly towards Ruan Xingzhe.

"Are you feeling unwell? Could it be that Tang Shuya is doing this to you again..."

Ling Zhen's cheeks flushed slightly, and she waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no, I'm here with my dad for a physical examination."

"Oh." Ruan Xingzhe nodded, as if he suddenly remembered something, and said hurriedly: "I have something else to do here, so I'll take my leave first."

Ling Zhen responded and saw that he left in a hurry, so he must have something urgent.

"Xiaozhen, who is that person?"

Ling Tianhua's voice came from behind. Ling Zhen turned around and glanced back at the direction Ruan Xingzhe left. "It's a doctor here. I was not feeling well before, and it's thanks to his care."

She didn't notice the strange expression on Ling Tianhua's face. She raised her foot to leave, but her arm was suddenly grabbed tightly by Ling Tianhua.

"Dad, what's wrong with you?"

Ling Tianhua's eyes, which had been drooping, now widened, his expression frozen. He trembled as he spoke, "It's him! It's him! He's that foreign investor. I saw the returns on his investments and visited their investment company in person, so I impulsively poured all my money into virtual currency!"

The air around her seemed to become heavy and oppressive in an instant, making Ling Zhen feel suffocated. She involuntarily took a few steps back. The ground under her feet seemed to become slippery. She felt unstable and could only lean against the wall weakly.

Ruan Xingzhe and Tang Shuya knew each other. From their conversation and actions, it could be seen that they had a close relationship, not just ordinary friends.

She had no grudge against Ruan Xingzhe and had never even met him before. Why did he pretend to be an investor to lure her father into the game?

Who is the ultimate beneficiary of this incident?

Ruan Xingzhe had no benefit in this matter, and Ling Rui's family collapsed. She was left alone and heavily in debt. Her father had no choice but to sell her to Tang Shuya, who suffered the greatest loss and had the highest status.

The answer is obvious.

Tang Shuya is the mastermind behind this.

He is the root of all misfortune.

She almost couldn't help but want to rush to Tang Shuya and ask the truth of the matter!

But no, it can't, at least not now.

Just a little bit, just a little bit, and she would be able to leave this place.

She forced herself to hold her other trembling hand tightly. The strings in her mind were about to break, and she forced herself to calm down on the verge of losing control.

He bit his lower lip so hard that it almost left a bloody mark. After taking a few deep breaths, his surging emotions finally receded like the tide.

……

"The user you dialed has turned off his phone. Please try again later..."

When the cold, mechanical female voice came for the Nth time, Ling Yuan felt a panic and uneasiness as if an uncontrollable tiger was jumping around in his heart.

Everything was fine for the first two days, but on the third day, Ling Tianhua's phone was turned off.

He has lost contact.

She was as anxious as an ant on hot pan, pacing back and forth in the house, but there was nothing she could do.

The doorbell rang suddenly, and she, who was already nervous, trembled instantly.

When her heartbeat calmed down and she opened the door, a tall and slender figure stood in the corridor.

The corridor was dim, and half of his face was hidden in the shadows, revealing only the lenses that refracted the faint light. The loose hair on his forehead hung casually, blocking his eyes.

But the corners of his lips were still slightly raised, and he said jokingly: "Why did you take so long to open the door? Is there someone hiding in the house?"

She licked her lower lip lightly, a faint smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, pretending to be calm, but she was actually very nervous inside.

"No, I was in the bathroom just now, so I didn't hear it."

He smiled, stretched out his hand and pushed her away without any hesitation, then walked straight into the house. After looking around, he asked, "Where is Mr. Ling?"

"He went traveling."

Although Ling Zhen answered calmly, he remembered the packed luggage in the bedroom.

She was not afraid that Tang Shuya would find out, but she was afraid that Tang Shuya would find out too early.

Hearing this, his eyes swept across Ling Zhen's face, and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "Ling Zhen, I see that you don't look well. Did something happen?"

Ling Zhen subconsciously touched his face and said, "It's okay. I'm just tired lately."

"Really?" His eyes curved slightly, as if he was smiling. "I thought it was because he was worried because he couldn't contact Elder Ling."

"You..." Ling Zhen stared at him blankly, his eyes motionless, the muscles on his cheeks trembling faintly, "Could it be that my father's disappearance has something to do with you?"

The man suddenly approached, looking down at her from above, his tall shadow covering her, bringing a strong sense of oppression.

He didn't answer Ling Zhen's question, but instead asked, "Why do you think it has something to do with me? Or are you hiding something from me?"

"I, I really have something to hide from you." She suddenly clenched her palms, panicking. At this point, she couldn't hide it any longer. "I've been assigned to the Southwest Branch of the company."

She didn't expect that she could hide the fact that she went to the southwest from Tang Shuya. He could easily find out with just a check.

The highest level of lying is not to tell all lies or to conceal everything, but to mix truth and lies, or half truth and half falsehood, and to tell neither all lies nor all truth.

In short, it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false.

He stared at her with a sneer, his tone unclear, "Did you get my consent for going to the southwest?"

"I haven't had time to tell you yet. The company sent me there temporarily."

She stood still and looked quite calm, but half of her scalp was numb instantly.

Tang Shuya narrowed his eyes, twitched the corners of his lips, and said slowly: "I don't agree, you can't leave."

"If I don't go, they'll ask me to change my job. Isn't this a disguised way of forcing me to resign?"

He tilted his head, shrugged nonchalantly, and said, "If you want to resign, then resign. How about coming to Genting and working in the CEO's office?"

Her eyes were red, and she said softly and aggrievedly: "Why should I go to the president's office? I like my current job and I don't want to quit."

He stared at Ling Zhen with a dark look in his eyes for a long while, then suddenly burst out laughing. "Ling Zhen, you're smarter than before, your acting skills have improved, and you're even more patient. I almost believed it."
