Chapter 473 Why Don't You Eat?
Zhao Kai's business tactics are swift and decisive.
In just a few hours.
He put pressure on local banks.
As a result, a financing loan that the Liao family applied for from the bank, which should have been disbursed today, was deliberately delayed on the grounds that "additional materials are needed".
He then swiftly contacted the Development and Reform Commission of City S.
As a result, several projects of the Chang family that were in the normal approval process were directly suspended because of the inability to eliminate safety hazards.
After receiving the summons, local officials began to frequently summon the legal representatives of the four family businesses under the pretext of "cooperating with the investigation," demanding that they appear for questioning and to give statements.
The ordinary people at the bottom of S City are still busy with their lives and have no idea what has happened.
The higher-ups in S City had already sensed an impending storm.
Zhao Kai, on his own, successfully transformed the state's public authorities into his private honor guard!
An early autumn afternoon at a suburban villa.
Zhao Kai sat in the downstairs living room, holding his phone, checking and replying to messages from all directions.
He nestled in the warm sunshine.
Her body was intertwined with light and shadow, colors, and the fragrance of osmanthus flowers.
My shoulders swayed slightly, as if I were in a silent old movie.
Until the maid carrying the tray came over.
The silence was broken by faint footsteps.
“Mr. Zhao, Miss Wen still refuses to eat. She hasn’t eaten or drunk anything for a whole day and night since yesterday.”
"If this continues, I'm afraid..."
Zhao Kai's finger, which was tapping his phone, froze in mid-air.
The jawline is taut, like a fully drawn bowstring.
His eyes held a turbulent undercurrent, yet he had to forcefully suppress it.
The man pursed his lips.
"Did I tell her that the chef is the old chef I specially invited back?"
The maid's voice grew softer and softer.
“I did tell her, but… but Miss Wen said she’s picky and only eats food cooked by Ji…”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Kai felt a surge of resentment and anger welling up inside him.
A bitter feeling, a mixture of jealousy, resentment, and immense disappointment, surged through him like a tsunami, assaulting his reason.
"Ah!"
"I still want to eat the food cooked by that guy surnamed Ji. That bastard is almost in trouble himself!"
When the topic of 'eating' came up, Zhao Kai suddenly remembered something.
He quickly reached into his pocket, carefully pulled out a white pill that looked like a pearl, and it fell into his palm.
The white, round pellet shone with a harmless, soft light under the bright afternoon sun.
This was a gift from Fan Zhishan.
According to Fan Zhishan, this thing is a product of Western medical laboratories, with great efficacy, and is exclusively for the enjoyment of the upper class.
Once a man is convinced, he can charge into battle for dozens of hours.
If a woman consumes this, no matter how chaste she may be, she will be transformed into a wicked woman.
He always treated Wenwan with the attitude of 'being polite and gentlemanly, cultivating feelings'; what he wanted was Wenwan's heart.
Therefore, he disdained to adopt the lewd methods that Fan Zhishan had instructed him to use.
But in this situation...
They say that conquering a woman can...
Could it be that even the gentle and unassuming are not immune to the common fate?
Zhao Kai's mind was filled with all sorts of random thoughts.
He stared at it, his expression gradually becoming both ecstatic and demonic.
When he came to his senses again, he was already standing at the door of Wen Wan's room.
After struggling internally for a long time, the man finally decided to push the door open and enter.
The room was not cleaned and remained a mess.
Sunlight filled the large room, yet it felt like it was shining on a graveyard, utterly silent and deathly still.
Wen Wan hugged her knees and squatted on the ruins.
The light gilded her with an ethereal golden edge, and her slender figure appeared slightly transparent in the strong light, as if she would disappear with the light at any moment.
The woman's face was pale, her lips were dry, and she no longer possessed the lively and spirited demeanor she once had.
Her eyes stared blankly into the void.
Only when Zhao Kai pushed the door open and came in did she lazily roll her dry eyes.
Zhao Kai would definitely prefer the vibrant Wen Wan to the lifeless Wen Wan.
Seeing this scene caused him intense pain in his heart.
He asked, both anxious and angry, "Why aren't you eating?"
"It's your body. You want to run away? Eat your fill so you have the energy to fight me!"
"What good does it do to not eat or drink like this, other than torturing yourself?"
Wenwan felt like there were flies buzzing around, but she didn't have the strength to cover her ears, so she simply closed her eyes and pretended not to see them.
Seeing Wen Wan's attitude of refusing to communicate, Zhao Kai felt an urge to crush all the beautiful things in the world with his own hands.
This thought came on so suddenly and intensely that it almost made him tremble.
But when he saw the numerous bloody gashes on the woman's body from the fight, and the strangulation marks on her neck, that surging, terrifying desire seemed to crash into an invisible, soft wall.
The man let out a barely audible, heavy sigh.
Then his expression turned cold.
"Don't you want to know about Ji Lengming's situation?"
Sure enough, the name 'Ji Lengming' made the silent woman in front of him twitch her eyelids.
Her voice was dry and hoarse, but at first glance, it had a unique softness and charm.
But when she opened her eyes again, all the vulnerability she had just felt vanished in an instant.
That innate domineering and majestic aura burst forth from his deep pupils.
"Look at how furious you are, you must have been driven crazy by my Mingming!"
"If you're so incompetent, why don't you just keep your tail between your legs and live a peaceful life as a spoiled rich kid? Why do you have to come out and humiliate yourself!"
Zhao Kai felt somewhat relieved after hearing the other party's sarcastic remarks.
The fact that she still has the energy to argue proves that she's alright.
The man tilted his chin up and snorted coldly.
"I know that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and whatever I say is wrong, but even a sneeze from someone surnamed Ji smells sweet."
"Unfortunately, he was never as good as me!"
"And you, Wenwan, will eventually have to accept this reality!"
Wen Wan was too lazy to listen to this person's shameless boasting.
She was more interested in knowing how her son, Mingming, was doing.
"I know my lover better than you do!"
"But you, with nothing better to do than come here and tell me about 'Ji Lengming sneezing'?"
"Or did Ji Lengming beat you so badly that you went insane?"
It's unclear what words triggered Zhao Kai, but his intense male desire for conquest suddenly erupted.
"That guy surnamed Ji is just riding on your coattails and borrowing the power of those old good-for-nothings from the Liao family!"
"Once I've destroyed those four barely surviving families, let's see if that Ji guy can still jump up and down!"
Wen Wan gave the other person a look as if they were an idiot.
The disdain in his eyes was almost overflowing.
Such a disdainful look filled Zhao Kai, who was always proud, with rage and anger.
The man strode towards Wen Wan.
He walked heavily, his feet crunching on the trash, the sound of it breaking echoing everywhere.
He then easily grabbed the woman's arm.
He even used too much force, lifting the woman in front of him slightly.
Zhao Kai originally wanted to throw a tantrum like a spoiled young master.
But as soon as he grabbed Wen Wan, he realized something was wrong.
The skin that my fingertips touched was surprisingly hot.
The man's anger was completely overwhelmed by the surging panic.
He almost shouted it out.
"damn it!"
"Do you even know you have a fever?!"
"I'll call the doctor right away!"
Just as he was about to carry Wen Wan away to take her to see a doctor.
Zhao Kai suddenly hesitated again.
He thought: Wen Wan is cunning and scheming, could this be... something she did on purpose?
