287: Chapter 283: Li Zhaojun Sends a Message to Ye Fan 287: Chapter 283: Li Zhaojun Sends a Message to Ye Fan Li Zhaojun dialed a number on the phone, and it was quickly answered.

“Director Li,” as soon as the call connected, a seductive laugh came through the phone.

Li Zhaojun responded with an “Mm” and said, “Come to my office.”

“Okay.

Right away.

Giggles…”

A few minutes later, a beautiful woman with a seductive figure and attire, and a foxlike smile, sashayed into Li Zhaojun’s office.

“Good morning, Director Li,” Hu Jing greeted Li Zhaojun with a smile as soon as she entered.

Li Zhaojun nodded slightly with her usual cool demeanor, stood up, walked away from her desk, and approached the coffee table sofa.

“Sit down and let’s talk,” she said to Hu Jing, then sat down on the sofa elegantly and started to prepare tea.

Hu Jing, taking her seat on another sofa, saw Li Zhaojun about to make tea and immediately said with a coquettish laugh, “Let me do it.”

With that, she reached out her slender hand to take over the tea-making.

“Alright.” Li Zhaojun knew that Hu Jing was a tea lover with good tea-making skills, so she passed the wooden tea tongs to Hu Jing.

Hu Jing skillfully began to prepare the tea.

As she made the tea, she said with a giggle, “Giggles, Director Li, our group’s crisis is completely resolved now; the stock price will definitely rise back to its original high point, or even the highest.”

“Mm.” Li Zhaojun nodded slightly, a hint of a smile appearing on her beautiful face.

She was the biggest beneficiary of this crisis; she had swallowed up Gong Yongfu and Sun Yuan’s shares at a very low price, completely kicking them out of the Emali Group.

Now, with the shares she held, she had absolute control over the Emali Group.

Once the stock price of Emali Group rebounded to its rightful position, her net worth would soar, reaching at least three billion!

Of course, that was not what she was most pleased about.

She was happiest to know that Ye Fan, although seemingly lax and hands-off on the surface, had been silently helping her out with major issues.

It made her feel that she was no longer alone, no longer facing countless predators lustful for her beauty and wealth by herself—she had a man she could rely on.

“Now even the Yi Group has obediently bowed down to our Emali Group, returning the ‘Ji Lung Cleanse Tablet’ patent and even paying millions in compensation.

Giggles, from now on, in Hua Hai city, I’m afraid no one will dare to mess with our group.

There must already be a long line of people wanting to cooperate with us,” Hu Jing said with her articulate and charming laugh.

Hu Jing really knew how to talk.

Even when facing Li Zhaojun, who was usually cool and quiet, she still managed to make the atmosphere pleasant and relaxed.

As they chatted, the tea was ready, its fragrance filling the room.

Hu Jing poured Li Zhaojun a cup with eagerness, smiling, “Director Li, come, have a taste and see if my skills have improved recently.”

Li Zhaojun gracefully picked up the tea, sipped a little, and savored it carefully.

After a while, she put the cup down and smiled, “Very good, the brewing is just right.”

“Giggles, it’s mainly because your premium Da Hong Pao is excellent.

If I had used my Jin Junmei, I definitely couldn’t have brought out such rich and authentic flavor,” Hu Jing said with a smile, pouring a second cup for Li Zhaojun and one for herself, then starting to thoroughly enjoy her tea.

Da Hong Pao and Jin Junmei are both types of black tea; Hu Jing’s comparison of these two wasn’t forced.

After savoring two cups of tea, Li Zhaojun put her cup down and looked at Hu Jing, “Manager Hu, how is Ye Fan performing in your department?”

Hu Jing was momentarily stunned when she realized Li Zhaojun had asked her to come up because of Ye Fan, but she immediately remembered that Ye Fan had become the deputy manager through Li Zhaojun’s connections, so it was not strange for Li Zhaojun to inquire about his performance.

Although she regained her composure, she didn’t immediately answer.

She was pondering whether to report honestly, speak well of Ye Fan, or to speak reservedly in his favor.

“He’s doing quite well,” Hu Jing finally said, “mainly because he is very capable and talented.”

Thinking that tonight she needed Ye Fan to accompany her to Yun Qi Club to gain exposure, and might even enter Hua Hai city’s upper circles because of it, she decided to speak highly of Ye Fan.

“Oh?” Li Zhaojun looked at Hu Jing with a meaningful gaze.

What else could Ye Fan be like, as if she didn’t already know?

He had always been so lazy that it made people want to beat him up, and being late or leaving early was the norm for him.

As far as work was concerned, he seemed to have never really been involved.

She was a bit surprised to find that Hu Jing was actually praising Ye Fan against her will.

Based on her understanding of Hu Jing’s character, although Hu Jing might not directly speak ill of Ye Fan, she would definitely imply something.

“Could it be that he has managed to deal with Hu Jing?” she couldn’t help but think, starting to feel that having Hu Jing meddle in Ye Fan and Lu Xiaoman’s relationship might have been a mistake.

Thinking of Lu Xiaoman, she immediately remembered that Lu Xiaoman had resigned and left Emali Group a few days ago.

“Did Lu Xiaoman resign suddenly because her relationship with Ye Fan changed?” she couldn’t help speculating.

Although she had known a few days ago that Lu Xiaoman had resigned, she was so focused on taking back the “Ji Lung Purification Pill” patent and was already preparing to divorce Ye Fan, so she didn’t give much thought to Lu Xiaoman’s resignation at the time.

Even though Lu Xiaoman had resigned and left Emali Group, she couldn’t be happy about it: this superficial, flower-hearted jerk had really gone to extremes, abandoning Lu Xiaoman so soon after working with that vixen Hu Jing!

Being stared at by Li Zhaojun’s meaningful gaze, Hu Jing couldn’t help feeling a great pressure and smiled nervously.

“Of course, he has a bit of personal business usually, and occasionally takes some time off,” she added in a remedying tone, “but it never interfered with his work.”

Li Zhaojun withdrew her gaze and spoke indifferently, “Although he has some relationship with me, work should be handled as it should be.

You don’t need to be apprehensive.”

“Sure, naturally.” Hu Jing said cautiously.

Li Zhaojun didn’t speak for a moment, picked up the teacup, and savored the tea for a while, with Hu Jing hurriedly pouring tea for Li Zhaojun.

“Does Ye Fan now know that the group has taken back the ‘Ji Lung Purification Pill’ patent?” Li Zhaojun asked casually.

This question was the real purpose of calling Hu Jing up for questioning.

She asked this to send a message to Ye Fan through Hu Jing.

Hu Jing said, “He should know.”

Ye Fan didn’t come to work yesterday, and he didn’t come in this morning either, so she was a bit unsure.

Because she knew that Ye Fan usually didn’t care much about the company’s affairs, and a lot of information about the company was communicated to him by her.

“He should know?” Li Zhaojun immediately seized the issue, asking, “Has he not been coming to work these past few days?

Including today?”

“No, that’s not the case.

He came to work yesterday morning, but then he had something come up and took a sudden leave.

He took a leave for some matters today as well.

He should come to work this afternoon,” Hu Jing said, stiffening up.

A person who didn’t sit in the office for three full days a week, and she had just said Ye Fan performed very well a moment ago – she was practically slapping her own face.

Li Zhaojun already knew about Ye Fan’s frequent absences, so she didn’t delve into it.

Afterward, she changed the subject to the recruitment of personnel for the new company.

After talking for a few sentences, Li Zhaojun let Hu Jing leave.

After returning to her own office, Hu Jing thought about how she was almost killed because of Ye Fan.

About Li Zhaojun’s concern whether Ye Fan knew about the “Ji Lung Purification Pill” patent issue, she decided not to wait for Ye Fan to come back to work to ask him, but directly called Ye Fan and said, “Ye Fan, I’m asking you, the group has already taken back the ‘Ji Lung Purification Pill’ patent, do you know about this?”

“Ah, we got it back?

That’s great, I didn’t expect it to be so soon!” Ye Fan’s surprised voice came through the phone.

Hu Jing was somewhat speechless, as Ye Fan indeed hadn’t paid attention to such an important matter.

She said somewhat angrily, “Just now, Director Li called me up to ask about your situation, and whether you knew that the group had taken back the ‘Ji Lung Purification Pill’ patent.

You better be careful and not give yourself away in front of Director Li.

I just seriously praised you in front of her.”

“Hehe, thank you, beautiful Hu.

I’ve got it,” Ye Fan laughed.

After hanging up the phone, Ye Fan didn’t immediately put away his phone, but pondered, “Emali Group has already taken back the ‘Ji Lung Purification Pill’ patent, and Li Zhaojun’s sending a message through Hu Jing means she knows the person attacking Same Overflow Group is me, and she seems to be asking me to back off.”

“However!

Once the sword is drawn, how can it be simply to scare people?!”
