Chapter 771
The woman’s punches became heavier and heavier. One could even hear the sound of “Dong Dong Dong”.
Her face was filled with anger, but the sadness in her eyes was visible to the naked eye.
“Madam…” Fang Jianguo could not help but step forward to stop her. “Stop hitting him. Let President Fu rest in peace…
Melody also stepped forward to stop her.
“Stop fighting. He’s not dead yet. You really have to stop hitting him.”
Before the woman could speak, Fang Jianguo glared at her angrily.
“Didn’t you say that those things could save President Fu? Why hasn’t President Fu woken up after ten minutes?”
The woman’s resentment was also aroused.
“Yes! It’s all your fault! If it weren’t for you, Zhang Heming might have been saved by someone else! You jinx! Liar!”
Melody raised her eyebrows slightly and asked in confusion, “Is his surname Fu or Zhang?”
Fang Jianguo glared at her.
“Vice President! It’s not President Fu!”
Fine, so she had misunderstood.
She met the woman’s and Fang Jianguo’s gazes calmly and said, “I’m just saying that I can help him take a look. I didn’t say that I can definitely save him. Also, I didn’t mention the money at all. How did I become a liar? Please understand this before talking to me.”
“How dare you quibble! It’s your fault!” The woman was furious and was anxious to find an outlet to vent.
And Melody, who had volunteered, was undoubtedly the best punching bag.
She reached out to slap Melody Fox, but Melody easily grabbed her wrist.
The woman was furious and shouted, “Fang Jianguo! What are you waiting for?! Arrest this liar!”
Just as Fang Jianguo was about to step forward, he suddenly heard a sound similar to a balloon releasing air- “Pfft.”
In the next second, a foul smell instantly enveloped the entire tavern.
At that very moment, everyone subconsciously pinched their noses, including Melody.
“Damn it… What’s that smell? It stinks…”
Fang Jianguo felt his stomach churning.
Melody shook off the woman’s hand and looked at the man on the ground with shining eyes.
“It’s out.”
The woman was stunned. Before she could react, she subconsciously asked, “What’s coming out?”
“Something in my stomach.”
As Melody spoke, she took a few steps to the man’s side. Enduring the stench, she reached out and patted the man’s face.
Only then did everyone realize that the stench was coming from the unconscious Zhang Heming.
“F*ck!” someone cursed. “His pants are disgusting…”
“Damn it… It’s all flowing out. No wonder it stinks!”
Melody Fox ignored the stench and pinched Zhang Heming’ s man hard.
Before the woman could walk to Zhang Heming’s side, Zhang Heming finally opened his eyes slowly.
His eyes were filled with confusion, but his expression was extremely comfortable.
“What’s wrong with me…”
The next second, Zhang Heming realized that he had diarrhea. He widened his eyes in fear and embarrassment. “My pants…”
“Hubby!” The woman flew to Zhang Heming’s side and cried, “You’re finally awake!”
Before Zhang Heming could say anything, Melody interrupted the couple.
“It’s not time to be happy yet. Tell him to take off his pants and see if the things are completely out.”
“Strip, strip, strip what?! Who are you?” Zhang Heming was both angry and ashamed.
The woman also realized that it was Melody who had given the mud ball the effect. She quickly explained to Zhang Heming, “Hubby, you were unconscious just now. Doctor Fox saved you. She said that there was something dirty in your stomach. Hurry up and cooperate with her to check…
Fang Jianguo also helped to explain.
Soon, Zhang Heming finally figured out what was going on. He was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed. His eyes widened as he said, “There’s something moving in my pants!”
Melody Fox said seriously, “Then why don’t you take it off and take a look? If you feel embarrassed, let your wife take a look at it for you. If you delay any longer, the thing might crawl back in.”
“Hubby, hurry up and take it off!” The woman urged.
After much deliberation, Zhang Heming realized that his life was more important than his face. He pulled his wife to the back of a booth in the bistro.
About two minutes later, the woman walked out from behind the booth with a cup in her hand.
The cup was transparent. Everyone was shocked to see that there was actually a leech that had absorbed enough blood in the cup!
The owner of the bistro blurted out, “How disgusting… Could it be that this thing is causing trouble in his stomach?”
Melody nodded lightly and said to the woman, “Find a pair of clean pants for him to change into. Otherwise, he will be easily infected.”
The woman thanked him profusely. “Thank you, Doctor Fox. I’ve already covered him with a coat and lost his dirty pants. By the way… I’m really sorry for what happened just now. I lost my mind and got angry at you.”
“Understandable, but don’t do this again in the future. After leaving the island tomorrow, go to traditional medicine and open a four-material soup. Coupled with the fried Astragalus, you’ll completely recover after drinking it for three days.”
“Thank you. Thank you for saving my husband’s life. I’ll remember everything. I’ll transfer 20 million dollars to you now. Please send me your account number.”
“No need.” She shook her head and rejected the woman. After saying that, she turned around and left.
“Hey… Doctor Fox…”
At first, the woman thought that Melody Fox was being polite on purpose. It was only when Melody walked out of the tavern with a man that she realized she really did not intend to take her money.
Guilt instantly engulfed the woman.
Was there really such a kind person in the world who didn’t ask for anything in return?
Just as she was about to chase after them, Zhang Heming happened to walk over and pull her back. He asked, “My savior? Why don’t I see her?”
“She’s gone…”
“Have you given her the money?”
“No… she refused to take the money and left.”
“What?! How could this be… Quickly chase after her and ask for her contact information!”
The woman hurriedly nodded. However, by the time she chased after Fox, Melody Fox had already disappeared.
At the entrance of the villa.
Melody Fox glanced sideways and asked Ken Swanson, Do you remember who that person is? I think they called him Zhang Heming.”
Ken Swanson shook his head helplessly. “I really can’t remember, but I’m sure I’ve seen him somewhere before. Forget it, the matter has been resolved. Let’s not think about that. Let’s go back and take a shower together. I feel that my hair is filled with that stench. Don’t you think it stinks?”
The moment the stench came, he pinched his nose and stood at the door.
In all his life, he had never smelled anything so smelly.
Melody Fox could not help but laugh.
“This is nothing. Many people who are seriously ill will lose control of their bowels and bladder. I’ve seen this situation many times. However, he’s lucky to have met me.
Otherwise, he really wouldn’t have been able to see the sun tomorrow.”
“Then why don’t you take his money?”
“Forget it. It was just a small favor to begin with. Just treat it as a blessing for myself.”
As they spoke, the two of them had already entered the villa.
Chapter 772
The decorations of the villa were grand and stylish. One could tell at a glance that the owner has good taste.
However, the furniture and floor tiles were all white, making Melody Fox feel a little lonely for a moment.
However, since this place was bought by Ken Swanson’s mother, the renovation must have been watched by Mother Li. It seemed that Mother Li liked white very much.
There were usually only two servants maintaining the huge villa.
However, it could be seen that the two of them were very diligent. The villa was spotless and there was no dampness caused by no one living there.
“Sir, Madam, you’re back? Do you need something to eat? We can go and prepare now.”
“There’s no need.” Ken Swanson waved his hand. “We’ve already eaten. You guys should go and rest too.”
“Yes.” The two servants bowed and quickly disappeared from their sight.
“Let’s go.” Ken Swanson hugged her waist and said, “Our bedroom is on the second floor. You take a shower in the room. I’ll take a shower in the next room.”
He did not want to wear the smelly clothes on him for a minute longer.
Melody Fox understood what he meant and smiled. “Okay.” If not for tonight, she would have forgotten that Ken Swanson was a clean freak.
When she thought of when they met the second time, she stuffed the soil from the ground into Ken Swanson’s jacket and the corners of her lips curled up unconsciously.
Ken Swanson’s expression at that time was definitely very interesting, it was a pity that she did not pay attention.
Under Ken Swanson’s guidance, Melody found the master bedroom where they were going to sleep. Ken Swanson went straight to the guest room next door to take a shower. She pushed open the door of the master bedroom. The decoration here was almost identical to Ken Swanson’s room in the manor. Even the layout had not changed at all. It should have been modified by Ken Swanson later.
This was good too. She felt a sense of familiarity when she returned to the manor.
The servants had already prepared a change of clothes. Melody was about to take a shower when she saw a heart made of rose petals on the King-size bed.
It was exactly the same as the big bed in the couple’s hotel. An ambiguous atmosphere instantly filled the entire room. Those two servants were really… They looked serious and simple. Why did they prepare these?
Melody suppressed the heat on her face. While Ken Swanson was still showering next door, she quickly gathered the petals together and pulled them into the trash can to “destroy the evidence.”
After doing this, she heaved a sigh of relief and carried her pajamas into the bathroom.
By the time she came out of the shower, Ken Swanson had already returned to the bedroom and was making a call standing at the French window in the room.
“Alright, I understand. Send it to my email. The rest of you, continue to monitor their every move. Contact me if anything happens.”
With that, Ken Swanson hung up.
Melody walked forward in confusion and asked, “Did something happen?”
Ken Swanson turned around and met her gaze as he replied, “Astrid Swanson, as expected, she got her people to tamper Grandma’s medicine again tonight.”
Melody Fox nodded.
“I deliberately let Lucy Colt give them a chance to attack.
Fortunately, Astrid Swanson kept it a secret from Ulric Swanson. Otherwise, Ulric Swanson would definitely be suspicious if he could succeed so easily twice in a row.”
Ken Swanson smiled. “The day after tomorrow, there will be a small celebration party at home. Many old man’s friends will come to attend. We can take advantage of that time to expose Astrid Swanson’s actions.”
“The day after tomorrow?” Melody Fox looked up and asked, “What’s the celebratory feast about?”
“Do you remember the time we first just met? In order to treat Grandma, we went to Deer Mountain to pick Kintame?”
“I remember.”
“That days after leaving Deer Mountain. You asked me to buy Deer Mountain and the mountainous area nearby. I bought it when I returned. I bought the remaining land in the hands of some retail investors at a price three times higher than the market price.”
“Well…”
Melody Fox nodded. She had already guessed what was going on.
As someone who had been reborn three years later, she knew very well that the mountain would soon become a key industrial park. Naturally, the price of land would rise. In his previous life, this piece of land was bought by Ulric Swanson by a freak combination of factors. In the end, he earned more than a hundred times.
In this life, under her recommendation, the owner of that piece of land became Ken Swanson.
However, she did not understand what this had to do with Ramon Swanson holding a celebratory feast.
Ken Swanson probably saw through her doubts and explained, “This industrial park was bought by the old man. I left a portion for Ximber Tech as a future base. The rest were sold to him at a high price with fake identities.”
Melody Fox looked up and asked, “Who did you say won the bidding? “Old man… What’s wrong?”
Melody Fox shook her head in a daze.
“I’m fine…”
However, her heart was filled with questions.
She remembered that in her previous life, the one who bid for this piece of land was a large chemical company in Insterimond.
How did the bidder in this life become Ramon Swanson?
She had not changed much about this matter. She had only changed the person who bought the land from Ulric Swanson to Ken Swanson. How could there be such a butterfly effect now?
At this moment, Melody Fox could not help but suspect that perhaps this world was not the original world, but the parallel world” that was often mentioned on television…
In her original world, she, Melody Fox, was indeed dead.
But if that was the case, where did she go in this world? Was she the one who occupied the nest?
The more Melody Fox thought about it, the more terrified she became.
The matter of rebirth was mysterious and could not be explained with science.
Ken Swanson looked at Melody Fox’s pale face and frowned.
“Melody, what’s wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Or do you not wish for Ramon Swanson to bid for that piece of land?”
Melody Fox came back to her senses.
She shook her head again and said, “No, I’m fine. I just suddenly thought of some unhappy things.”
“Then don’t think about those things. Think about the happy things. For example…” Ken Swanson paused. Only then did he realize that they did not seem to have anything happy to reminisce about.
Every memorable memory seemed to carry danger and shock.
He smiled bitterly and said, “I don’t think I can give you any examples that will make you happy.”
“Happiness needs to be created. Let’s create more happy memories in the future. Go to sleep. It’s getting late. You still have to take the morning flight back to Silverlake early tomorrow morning.”
“I was the one comforting you. Why are you the one comforting me all of a sudden?”
Melody shrugged helplessly, lifted the blanket, and went in first.
“Turn off the lights!”
This room was different from Silverlake. The light switch was not designed properly, and the switch was more than six feet meters away from the bed.
When Ken Swanson turned off the lights, Melody Fox suddenly felt that she was no longer alone. Even the lights were turned off for her.
Happiness is like this. You won’t notice it, but when you notice it, you’ll find yourself surrounded by bubbles of happiness.
In a few seconds, Melody Fox felt the other side of the bed sink.
The next second…
Chapter 773
Ken Swanson’s voice sounded.
“What’s this?”
Melody looked over in confusion.
Although the lights were off, she could clearly see a rose petal between Ken Swanson’s fingers under the bright moonlight.
Her face turned red.
“I…-I don’t know…”
“Is that so?”.
Ken Swanson brought the petal to his nose and sniffed it. It still had the fragrance of roses, and there was no smell of corruption. Clearly, it was a fresh rose.
Ken Swanson: Have You Never Seen a Pig Run Before? He instantly understood where the petals came from.
He curved his lips and moved behind Melody Fox. He held her waist with one hand and asked in a low voice, “At least wait until I’ve seen it before dealing with it. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be for nothing?”
Melody’s face instantly burned. She stammered and pretended to be confused-
“What did you set up for nothing? I really don’t understand what you’re talking about.”
Ken Swanson chuckled softly.
“Alright, since you’re shy, I won’t tease you anymore.”
As he spoke, he slowly hugged Melody Fox even tighter.
Melody was lying with his back facing him. He simply buried his entire face in the back of her neck.
In that manner, her fragrance filled his nose.
Most women smelled like perfume, but Melody Fox was different. She smelled like herbal medicine ingredients. Some people did not like this smell, but he liked it very much. When he smelled it, he felt as if his heart, which was originally riddled with holes, had been healed.
However, when a man and woman of this age were lying on the same bed, their ears were filled with the sound of the waves hitting the reefs. Some things gradually changed. Melody was the first to notice that Ken Swanson’s body was getting hotter and hotter, especially where the two of them were tightly pressed together. Through the thin layer of clothes, Ken Swanson’s body temperature directly passed through.
A man’s temperature was slightly higher than a woman’s, and it was even more so under such circumstances.
Melody Fox subconsciously wanted to break free from his embrace, but he was stopped by Ken Swanson’s rough voice.
“Don’t move…”
He was a very restrained person, especially when it came to matters between men and women.
However, as long as the other party was Melody Fox, he would be utterly defeated.
He clearly didn’t do anything. He was just hugging her. How did things go beyond his control?
Could it be that he was just like Sid Quant, an animal that thought with its lower body?
In Silverlake, Sid who was far away from Ken Swanson, suddenly sneezed in the middle of the night.
Who was scolding him?
Minutes passed, but the heat in Ken Swanson’s heart & body did not dissipate.
He retracted his hand from Melody’s waist and wiped the sweat off his forehead. “Go to sleep first. I’m going to take a shower.”
Melody was someone who had lived two lives. How could she not understand what it meant for someone who had already taken a shower once to suggest taking a shower?
Under the moonlight, she saw that he seemed to be having a hard time holding it in.
Just as Ken Swanson sat up on the bed alone, she suddenly mustered up a huge amount of courage and grabbed his hand.
“What’s wrong?” He looked at her in confusion, thinking she didn’t want to sleep alone. “I’ll be ready in five minutes,” he said quickly. “I’ll be back in five.”
“No…” Melody shook her head and said with an unprecedented serious expression, “You don’t have to take a shower. I… I’m ready this time.”
She knew that this matter was the last hurdle in her heart.
If she did not cross over, the knot in her heart would never be untied.
If she wanted to undo it, she had to be braver.
Ken Swanson was stunned for a few seconds before he realized what Melody had just said.
The huge surprise almost made him think that he was hallucinating.
His eyes were filled with disbelief.
“Are… are you serious?”
“Yes.” Melody was too embarrassed to look at Ken Swanson. She looked away and said, “I’m ready.”
The surprise came too suddenly. Ken Swanson could not help but confirm again.
“Are you sure? Do you know what you’re saying now? This kind of thing… There’s no turning back. I won’t agree to it if I regret it.”
“Don’t worry, I know what I’m talking about.”
Ken Swanson finally confirmed that Melody Fox had really agreed to be his legitimate wife.
On their wedding night, every moment was worth a thousand gold.
Ken Swanson did not waste any more seconds. He reached out with his long hands and pulled her into his arms.
He bowed and kissed her lips lovingly and tenderly.
The moon was bright and the stars were sparse.
At night, the seawater surged, and the sound of waves hitting the reefs came from outside the window, drowning in the boundless night.
***
In the blink of an eye, it was the next day. Melody Fox was awakened by thirst.
Last night was their wedding night.
Ken Swanson’s Fox had clearly been busy at the company for the entire day. In the afternoon, he had been struggling between Silverlake and Lincheng. Logically speaking, his stamina should have been almost exhausted.
However, he still seemed to have endless strength. He tortured her until the sun rose in the sky and only let her go when she begged for mercy.
Even so, he still went to take a cold shower before calming down. It could be seen that he was talented.
However, she was not keen on an affair between a man and a woman. Such a talent was a stressful thing for her.
Although Melody was thirsty, she still did not want to open her eyes.
She was really too tired, and her entire body felt like it was falling apart.
At that instant, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in her ears-
“You’re awake? Do you want something to eat for breakfast?”
Melody suddenly opened her eyes and looked at her side in disbelief.
Ken Swanson was bare-chested. He supported his head with one hand and looked at her deeply. It was unknown how long he had been looking at her and maintaining this posture.
“W-why are you still here? What time is it?”
She hurriedly looked at the clock on the wall and saw that it was already past nine in the morning. “Oh no, you’re late…”
She subconsciously wanted to sit up, but there was a fine pain under her.
“Hiss-“
Her face instantly turned pale and she subconsciously sucked in a breath of cold air.
“What’s wrong? Does it still hurt?”
Ken Swanson leaned forward with a concerned expression and tried to pull the blanket away for her.
“What are you doing…” She quickly pulled the blanket over herself, her expression wary.
“I’ll take a look for you.”
“Look… Look at your head!” Melody Fox raised her hand and knocked Ken Swanson’s head.
However, Ken Swanson had a look of enjoyment on his face.
“If it makes you feel better to hit me, then go ahead.”
Although it hurt, he was willing to do it.
Melody glared at Ken Swanson again. She did not even bother to hit him.
She tried her best to ignore the pain beneath her and asked about serious matters.
“You’re clearly awake. Why aren’t you at the airport? Aren’t you afraid of being late? How are you going to explain to the company?”
However, Ken Swanson was still indecent. He hugged her waist and said, “I’m not even afraid. What are you afraid of?” Melody pushed him away and said angrily, “Can you be more normal? I’m talking about serious matters with you!” Ken Swanson probably saw that she was really a little annoyed, so he said seriously, “I’ve already arranged for the company. Silverlake will only think that I’m going to the construction site for an inspection and will only return to the company in the afternoon, so you don’t have to worry. As for why I’m not going to the airport…”
Chapter 774
Ken Swanson looked at her deeply and could not help but reach out to rub her head.
“Work is endless. No matter how busy I am, how can I leave my wife here alone on the second day of our wedding night?”
He did not want Melody to be alone when she opened her eyes, making her feel that she was not as important as work.
He hoped that she would feel a little more at ease when she opened her eyes and saw him.
“Ken Swanson…”
Melody was moved, and her eyes turned red.
This was a gentleness that belonged solely to Ken Swanson.
She could not help but reach out and hug Ken Swanson.
“You took the initiative…”
His dark eyes were frighteningly bright. He held the back of her head and kissed her hard..
Breathing and sweetness were taken away bit by bit. Under Ken Swanson’s powerful siege, Melody’s breathing gradually became chaotic..
The air seemed to be filled with a chaotic and romantic aura.
Her clothes were taken off again.
After an unknown period of time, Ken Swanson let out a low growl. Both of them were drenched in sweat.
Compared to last night, Melody had already adapted a lot today. At least, the discomfort was gone, and she could gradually feel the beauty of this kind of thing.
For a moment, she even felt that she was about to die, but then she came back to life. She really wanted to die. No wonder so many people were obsessed with this.
Of course, the most important thing was that the person who did this was someone she loved.
If it were any other person, she would not have enjoyed it at all.
At that moment, her phone rang.
Melody broke free from Ken Swanson’s embrace and reminded him, “It’s your phone.”
Ken Swanson closed his eyes and reluctantly let go of her hand. He turned around and went to pick up the phone on the bedside table.
It was a call from James Deeds.
“Young Master, I couldn’t get through to Miss Fox. I can only call you here…”
“Get straight to the point.”
“I want to remind Miss Fox that Shilo has set off for the branch office. The plan arranged by Miss Fox can begin to be implemented.”
“Got it. I’ll meet you at the pier.”
“Yes.”
Melody Fox had heard the contents of the call. She lifted the blanket and was about to get out of bed when Ken Swanson gently pressed her back.
“There’s still half a little time left. There’s no hurry. Let’s take a shower first.”
“But…”
Before she could say anything, Ken Swanson reached out and picked her up by the waist.
Melody covered her chest in confusion.
Ken Swanson smiled gently and said, “Is there anything on you that I haven’t seen before?”
“Turn around!”
“It’s not up to you…”
He took the showerhead and carefully wiped her skin.
Melody was so shy that her heart was about to jump out of her throat. Fortunately, Ken Swanson did not do anything unusual this time. He really washed her seriously and let her out.
However, just as she walked out of the bathroom, she heard a beep from inside. The sound of the hot water switching to cold water.
Her face was slightly red, but she couldn’t care less. If this continued, she wouldn’t have to do anything serious.
After Melody changed her clothes, Ken Swanson walked out of the bathroom.
He was dressed in formal attire and looked like a gentleman again.
If Melody had not seen him go crazy last night, she would have thought that he was an otherworldly god. “Let’s go.” She looked away and led the way.
After that, the two of them arrived at the dock.
James Deeds was already waiting there. When he saw the two of them appear together, his eyes widened in surprise. “Young Master? You haven’t left?”
“Okay, we’ll go back together after you’re done. I’ll wait for your news at the hotel. Just do what you need to do. Don’t worry about me.”
That being said, how could James Deeds dare to ignore Ken Swanson?
He left Spencer at the entrance of the hotel to wait for Ken Swanson’s instructions. The others followed Melody to the Swanson Group’s branch here.
Soon, the car stopped at the entrance of the branch office.
James Deeds, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, turned his head and said, “Miss Fox, Aaron Berg will accompany you up. I’ll wait for you in the car. If there’s anything, we’ll use this to contact…”
As he spoke, he handed over a seemingly inconspicuous brooch, but it was actually a mini walkie-talkie that had the ability to transmit images and sound.
Melody nodded and pinned the brooch to her chest before walking towards the branch office building.
Although this was only a branch office, it was not small. There were a total of six buildings, and Shi Luo was in the building at the front.
Aaron Berg whispered information about Shiloh as he led the way.
“His job today is to confirm his cooperation with a large construction material company in Lincheng. According to the reports from his subordinates, they’re almost done signing the contract. If we go over now, will be just right in time.”
Melody was still worried that she had delayed too much. When she heard this, her anxious heart relaxed a little.
Soon, the two of them arrived at the front desk of the building.
“Good morning, both of you. May I help you?”
Aaron Berg, who was beside Melody Fox, stepped forward and said, “We were sent by the headquarters to check on the higher-ups. This is Dr. Fox. You should have been informed that we will be here this morning.”
“Hold on, let me check.”
The receptionist quickly browsed through the computer screen and put on an even brighter smile. “So it’s Doctor Fox. Welcome. The leaders’ offices are on the eleventh floor. I’ll bring the two of you up.”
“Then hurry up! You won’t be able to take responsibility if Dr. Fox’s Fox is delayed.”
Aaron Berg urged repeatedly, like a sidekick beside a vicious supporting character in a television drama.
But this was also part of the plan.
She needed to get Shiloh’s attention before she could see him.
The smile on the receptionist’s face quickly faded. She frowned and led the way unhappily.
What kind of person was he? He was even more impressive than the higher-ups from the headquarters yesterday.
Miracle doctor?
Bah!
Looking at her age, how could she be a divine doctor? She was probably a relative of someone from the headquarters who used the back door to earn a sum of money from the branch company.
The receptionist cursed in her heart. When she brought the two of them to Fox on the eleventh floor, she didn’t even leave the elevator and went down again.
On the way down, she couldn’t help but take out her phone and complain in the group.
“Do you know what’s wrong? An ugly woman who claims to be a divine doctor has arrived. Tsk tsk, I’ve never seen such an ugly woman in my life!”
The group was filled with good colleagues in the company, so she didn’t have to worry about anything.
However, gossip spread like wildfire.
In less than a few minutes, more than half of the company knew that an ugly doctor had come to check on the higher- ups.
Melody walked past the workstations. From the corner of her eye, she saw everyone’s gazes and knew that the first step of the plan had succeeded.
The first step was to build momentum first. Even if this momentum” was not a good one, it was fine as long as it could attract Shi Luo’s attention.
As for the second step…
Chapter 775
The second step was to reverse the bad reputation and arouse Shi Luo’s curiosity.
Melody raised her eyebrows and walked to the office door of He Bing, the person in charge of the branch company.
“Is President He inside? I was sent by the headquarters to do a physical examination on him.”
The assistant in charge had already received a call from the front desk. She sized up Melody Fox and thought to herself that she was indeed very ugly. Then, she put on a fake smile and said, “President He is still discussing an important collaboration. Please wait at the door. I think they should be finishing their meeting soon.”
“Got it.”
Melody nodded and glanced sideways at Aaron Berg. Aaron Berg understood. He had to continue building momentum.
He was obviously displeased. He raised his voice and said, Doctor Fox is willing to wait. Are you really going to let this godly doctor wait? Hurry up and rush your President He. We were sent over by the headquarters!”
The assistant was surprised.
This person… was really ostentatious!
She suppressed the anger in her heart and forced a smile. Please calm down. I’ll go tell President He now.”
With that, the assistant walked straight to the meeting room.
Didn’t he want her to inform President He?
Then she would do as they wished! Let’s see if President He would scold them badly later!
He was just a small doctor. Did he really think he was a big shot?
The assistant knocked on the door of the meeting room with a resentful expression.
In the conference room.
He Bing and Shi Luo sat on one side while the people from the construction materials company sat on the other side of the long table.
This building materials company was the largest building materials company in Lincheng.
In the past, they had bought the construction materials needed at the construction site from other places.
If he could reach an agreement with them this time, he would no longer need to transport construction materials from outside. He could greatly reduce expenditure and reduce costs.
But the building materials company had always charged a high price, which was why they had only begun to sit down and talk about cooperation today.
However, when they were talking about the most important thing, they were interrupted by the assistant who knocked on the door.
“President He.” The assistant said, “There’s a doctor with the surname Fox outside. She said that the headquarters sent her to examine you. Do you want to go out and meet her?”
Shi Luo immediately frowned and gave He Bing a look that said, “How did you teach your subordinate?”
He Bing was also furious.
This assistant, Ping, was not that stupid. Why was she so blind now?
This collaboration was of utmost importance. It could be seen from the fact that Shi Luo had specially come to Lin City for this matter.
If they failed to reach an agreement because of this interruption and the chairman blamed them, their entire branch company would most likely suffer. As the leader, he would be the first to be pulled down.
Damn it…
He Bing glared at his assistant as if he wanted to eat her up. He lowered his voice and said coldly, “Can’t you see that I’m busy here? Let her go!”
The assistant was shocked, but she subconsciously added, ” But Doctor Fox is from the headquarters.”
“You…”
Shi Luo, who was beside her, was also afraid that their collaboration would be ruined, so he spoke before He Bing could, “Get out!”
At this moment, the assistant finally knew that she had accidentally gotten into big trouble.
She shouldn’t have come here to frown just to anger those two people!
The assistant did not dare to say another word. She shrunk her neck and left dejectedly.
Shi Luo retracted his gaze and said apologetically,
President Zhang, I’m really sorry. My subordinates are blind. Please forgive me.”
In terms of status in the business world, Shroder’s status was more than one level higher than the so-called ” President Zhang” opposite him. However, as the saying went, a strong dragon could not suppress a local snake. In other people’s territory, it was easier to lower one’s status. He Bing quickly smiled apologetically and said, “President Zhang, I’m sorry! I’ll treat you to a drink later!”
The man sitting in front of her waved his hand.
“It’s fine. Just discipline him well in the future. There’s no need for alcohol. I haven’t been feeling well recently. I was saved by a divine doctor last night and was pulled back from the gates of hell. If we have time, we’ll still meet to drink coffee to recuperate.”
Seeing that Zhang Heming was not angry, the two of them heaved a sigh of relief and followed Zhang Heming’s words. There’s actually such a thing? Why didn’t you tell us earlier that President Zhang wasn’t feeling well? Thank you for coming personally.”
“Don’t worry, I’m fine today. It’s just a pity that I don’t even know the name of that miracle doctor…” As Zhang Heming spoke, he suddenly slapped his head and said, “Look at my brain. I forgot about the serious matter. Where were we just now?”
He Bing quickly reminded him, “We’re talking about the price of the construction materials for the earthquake- resistant scaffold. Can you give us a little more… In the future, we’ll definitely order the construction materials from your company.”
“Well…”
The people on both sides started a new price war over the price of the last batch of building materials.
Fortunately, the final result was good. The other party was indeed interested in cooperating with the Swanson Group. After a round of verbal sparring, they finally reached a consensus on the price.
This was Shi Luo’s main job on this business trip. Now that he had completed this job, he heaved a long sigh of relief. The headquarters had given him a total of Fox rooms for this business trip for a week. Since he had completed the mission the next day, he could arrange them for the next few days.
However, when he thought of what he had experienced in Ulric Swanson’s private manor, his emotions could not rise. The feeling of having his life in someone else’s hands was really not something that could make people happy. However, since he was still alive, he had to live his life. The other party could not really take his life now.
Shi Luo forced himself to perk up and said to Zhang Heming, “President Zhang, do you have any plans for lunch? If not, let’s have a meal together so that we can draw up the final contract for Room Fox for the lawyer.”
Zhang Heming nodded. “Sure! I haven’t had an appetite for a long time. After that godly doctor’s treatment, I can actually feel hungry today. However, it’s still early for lunch. I’ll go back to the company first. Let’s meet at dinner time.”
“Alright, I’ll contact your assistant after I find a hotel.”
“Mm. Let’s contact him.”
Fang Jianguo took a step forward and said, “Hello, Mr. Shi. My surname is Fang. You can call me Xiao Fang. I’ll stay at the headquarters and wait for the lawyer to draft the final contract.”
“Okay, okay.” Shi Luo turned his head and instructed He Bing, “Arrange a room for Assistant Fang to rest in.”
“Yes, Boss Shi.”
After watching Zhang Heming leave and Fang Jianguo settle down, Shi Luo finally started to settle the score.
“What’s wrong with your assistant? Do you know that he almost caused a disaster?!”
He Bing was scolded badly. He rubbed his nose and said innocently, “She’s a smart person. I don’t know why she went crazy today… But I guess it’s probably related to the doctor sent by the headquarters. If the doctor didn’t say anything, that girl wouldn’t have dared to come and disturb us.”
