Trapped with the CEO

Chapter 36 Arrange for You

"Surely we can take this one man down if we join hands." Zheng Linrui did not sound convinced by Qi Yunzhong's words. Who would have thought that the lucky bastard married such a powerful husband?

"It is hard to say. Xinru, just drop the case first. I will discuss it with your father." Though being mysterious and low-profile, Si Jinheng was a man second to none in his power. Head-on confrontation with such a dangerous figure had better be avoided.

Fu Xinru could not but call her lawyer to drop the case against Li Qianluo. With hatred, she made an investigation into Si Jinheng.

Qi Yunzhong soon got in touch with Fu Hongchang, Zheng Hang and Luo Jinwei. They then had a discussion in the meeting room.

All of them were sophisticated businessmen. However, they all went silent at the mentioning of Si Jinheng's name. "Fu, Si Jinheng's power and wild ambition are beyond our imagination. It is a marvel that he could gain a firm foothold in the business field at such a young age. Now that we know Li Qianluo is his wife, we should not provoke her."

Luo Jinwei was timider than the others. It was his custom to stay away from those that he dared not provoke.

"Luo, it is not good to look down upon ourselves. Our children may be prosecuted. We'd better not sit idle." Fu Hongchang said with a sour face, for he did not believe that Si Jinheng was so powerful that he could rival the four of them.

"Fancy you having the nerve to say that! If it were not for the fact that Zeming and Xinru provoked Li Qianluo in the first place, Xinxin would not be involved." Luo Jinwei had alrealy warned Luo Xinxin not to get close to that scheming Fu Xinru. Luo Xinxin refused to take his father's advice. Then she got it in the neck. But fortunately, it seemed that Si Jinheng didn't blame her, as she didn't talk much.

"Luo, you are already in. Do not say that." Thinking of his disappointing son, Qi Yunzhong turned red with anger and decided to teach him a lesson after returning home.

Luo Jinwei left right away, for he didn't want to get involved in this matter. He made up his mind to keep her daughter grounded upon returning home. "Qi Yunzhong is such an old fox that he even framed his best friend. It is better to stay away from him, " Luo Jinwei thought to himself.

Luo Jinwei's attitude irritated the other three. Well, the alliance was now already one man short.

"Xinru has discontinued the suit. We would figure something out later, should Si Jinheng kept pushing this issue. If he did not, then the whole thing would be over for good. As for the grievances that Zeming and Xinru have suffered, it is not the right time to get back at her now. Li Qianluo will reap what she has sowed sooner or later." This was the simple expedient that Qi Yunzhong could dope out at the moment.

Qi Yunzhong would warn Qi Zeming and Fu Xinru not to offend Si Jinheng any more.

In Luo's house.

"Slap!" A slap loudly echoed across the living room. Luo Xinxin stared at her father in disbelief.

"Luo, what are you doing?" Deng Xuanxuan hurried to hand Luo Xinxin, her youngest daughter, who almost fell onto the ground, wondering what made the good-tempered Luo Jinwei fly into a rage.

"Luo Xinxin! From this moment on, keep yourself away from Fu Xinru and Zheng Linrui, or else you would be banned from this house!" Luo Jinwei had warned her many times, but Luo Xinxin just turned a deaf ear to him. It was by sheer luck that she managed to keep out of this mess, or the whole family and the Fujiang Group would go down with her!

If Fu Hongchang and the other knew their place, they should definitely not mess with Li Qianluo and Si Jinheng!

"Father! I did nothing but hang out with them. Why do you do this to me?" It was the first time that Luo Xinxin had been slapped by her father. She was left speechless with grievance.

"Even hanging out is forbidden. They will bring you into trouble. Do you know who Li Qianluo's husband is? If you had said one more offensive word to Li Qianluo at that time, you would have put Fujiang Group in dire peril. It is lucky that you are always a quiet girl. You know what? Even though the scheming Fu Xinru drops the case, Si Jinheng will not let off the companies of Qi Yunzhong and Fu Hongchang!" When Luo Jinwei was in the USA several years ago, he saw how Si Jinheng dealt with a man offending him.

At that time, Si Jinheng was only 24 years old. It was at a banquet that a foreigner said Si Jinheng was cuckolded. In the next three days, he sent him into bankruptcy. And in the following week, all his family businesses met the same fate!

It caused a sensation throughout America. Nobody would have thought that a 24-year-old man had such capability.

How did Li Qianluo come to marry him was not the key question. Such being the case, Si Jinheng would absolutely not sit by and watch Qi Yunzhong and his son usurp Li Xiancheng's company.

Though it appeared that Si Jinheng did nothing, he surely had something to do with Qi Zeming's scandal and the scar on Fu Xinru's face. Without his support, Li Qianluo may have already been thrown into jail by Qi Yunzhong. Instead, not only had she turned out fine, she also owned the Blue Island Mall. It was evident that Li Qianluo had an important place in his heart.

"I am sorry, father. I will not hang out with them any more!" Luo Xinxin bowed her head to apologize. She would not join Fu Xinru in provoking Li Qianluo again, even if her father didn't slap her, as that cold Si Jinheng had startled the hell out of her.

"Alright. Good girl. I know you will come to your senses. It is all good then. Go back to your room." Luo Jinwei looked at Luo Xinxin with satisfaction. He had three children. Luo Xinxin, his youngest daughter, was the most obedient one, and he liked her the most. Luo Jinwei cooled down soon.

"But, father, Fu Xinru said that she would not give up that easily last night..." Fu Xinru's remark suddendly came to Luo Xinxin's mind.

"Never mind that. We stay low for the time being. Go travel abroad and stay away from her." Luo Jinwei was afraid that Fu Xinru would come to his daughter. So he sent his daughter abroad.

It turned out that Luo Jinwei was right. In the following days, Fu Xinru called Luo Xinxin more than once to ask for help. But she failed to get in touch with Luo Xinxin.

During her breaks at home, Li Qianluo had been tossing and turning in her bed, feeling blue. She then made a decision to find another job.

She graduated from the School of Film and Television. Was it the right time to apply for a job in an entertainment company? Well, that seemed to be the only way.

Si Jinheng arrived home at 6 pm that day. After they had dinner together, Si Jinheng went to the study.

Thinking of the evening when she sent a glass of milk to Si Jinheng and was then screwed by him, Li Qianluo wisely stayed in her room and took out her phone to send him a message via WeChat, "I think it is necessary to inform you that I will go to an entertainment company to apply for a job tomorrow."

Si Jinheng replied very soon, "No way!"

... Li Qianluo regretted telling him her plan.

"Why not?"

"Because I say so. Go to SL tomorrow. Yun Qi will arrange for you!" Si Jinheng clenched his phone, recollecting the days several years ago when his girlfriend entered the entertainment circle and they grew estranged from each other...

She simply kept on telling Si Jinheng, "Heng, I have my dream. I will come back to you after I realize my dream." Si Jinheng had fallen into endless waiting since then.
