Zhao Yifei, on the other hand, had almost fully recovered from his injury as a result of the car accident. He was finally able to return to Zhao Enterprise.
Of course, before this, Sun Fengzi had already come to Zhao Enterprise and made a fuss there. She had insisted that Zhao Youlin had set up Zhao Yifei, and she even lodged a police report to arrest her.
The outcome of Sun Fengzi’s action was predictable. The police officers dared not act recklessly due to lack of solid evidence, as well as knowing that they should not simply mess with the Zhao family. As such, they stopped taking any action after giving a perfunctory response to Sun Fengzi by words.
Out of rage, Sun Fengzi gave a call to her own parents to seek help from them. Surprisingly, her parents did not pay particular attention to her when they heard her banshee-like scream. They merely responded perfunctorily to her and said no more.
Knowing that her trump card had failed her, Sun Fengzi hated Zhao Youlin to the bone. However, without the main pillar of strength, she could not do anything to Zhao Youlin. After Sun Fengzi caused the initial commotion, no one no longer bothered about her when she repeatedly made a fuss.
Zhao Yifei’s car that had been involved in the car accident had burned to ashes in the explosion. Even if Zhao Yifei’s car accident did not happen by accident, all the evidence to prove it otherwise had long been wiped out due to the explosion.
Evidence was important in an investigation. No matter how dissatisfied Sun Fengzi was, it was futile for her to point out that Zhao Yifei’s incident did not happen by accident without solid proof.
The car accident had more or less resulted in a sequela for Zhao Yifei. He could no longer walk normally with his wounded leg.
It was a huge blow to Sun Fengzi when she learned of the news. Her son had been an apple in her eye since birth. She adored him so much that she never let him suffer any grievance. However, ever since Zhao Youlin returned to the Zhao family, Zhao Yifei kept suffering from injuries.
First, Zhao Yifei had been beaten up by Zhao Youlin during the former master’s grand birthday banquet. Second, Zhao Youlin had delivered a flying kick to him until he was admitted to the hospital, and even caused him to become impotent.
Next, Zhao Yifei had been humiliated by Zhao Youlin once more during Duan Yarong’s birthday banquet. Zhao Youlin had even snapped his arm. Now, Zhao Yifei ended up becoming handicapped due to a car accident. Even if Zhao Youlin may not be the main culprit, Sun Fengzi was very certain that the
incident had to be related to her!
That b.i.t.c.h must be a jinx that brought bad luck to her son. She definitely would not spare her!
When Zhao Youlin learned of Zhao Yifei’s news, she lamented to herself. Indeed, a dogfight is the most interesting show compared to the rest.’
However, both Zhao Youlin and Sun Fengzi surprisingly shared the same thought by a.s.suming that the moment Zhao Yifei learned of his disability, he would certainly cause a commotion. Unfortunately, reality showed them otherwise. Both of them had speculated wrongly.
Zhao Yifei accepted the fact about his disability with calm, so calm that Sun Fengzi thought Zhao Yifei had a few screws knocked loose in his head as a result of the car accident.
After Zhao Yifei returned to Zhao Enterprise, he did not look for Zhao Youmning or Zhao Youlin. This was something that was beyond many people’s expectations.
Many people inside the company had a.s.sumed that Zhao Yifei would look for Zhao Youlin and cause a scene as soon as he recovered from his wound. This was especially so for the board of directors who were looking forward to a good show!
However, it turned out that Zhao Yifei returned to Zhao Enterprise in silence and hence resulted in the issue being settled in silence as well. As a result, many people were disappointed with the outcome.
Furthermore, judging from Zhao Yifei’s att.i.tude, the staff from Zhao Enterprise, who had suspected Zhao Youlin as the main culprit for his car accident, were further convinced that Zhao Youlin did not have a good reason to do that to him.
But, if the main culprit was not Zhao Youlin, who else could the person be? Or, was the car accident purely happened by coincidence?
For a moment, the actual cause of Zhao Yifei being involved in a car accident became a mystery.
The main party involved in the car accident did not pay attention to it, or perhaps, he deliberately forced himself to neglect it.
Zhao Yifei was finally able to finish his work for the day once again. By the time he left the office, he was greeted by the sight of his nemesis — Zhao Youming.
“Oh, dear! Chief Zhao, finally, you’re back! Have you fully recovered? Are you in good health?” Zhao Youming gave a smile at Zhao Yifei and took the initiative to greet him, After that, he shot a glance at Zhao Yifei’s leg suggestively and said, “Chief Zhao, now that it’s inconvenient for you to walk around,
why don’t you take a few more days to rest at home? There are not many changes with the staffing issue in the company. Besides, I suppose there is no particularly important issue happening in the human resources department. As such, Chief Zhao, you don’t have to return to your work in such a hurry.
It’s best to take care of your health first.”
That kid actually mocked Zhao Yifei, a handicapped who still occupied the position of a chief of a department without any semblance of real power. He taunted Zhao Yifei for being a donkey under a lion’s skin.
There was a bone-chilling coldness flashed in Zhao Yifei’s eyes. However, he soon hid the glimpse from his eyes, and discreetly cussed the board of directors for arranging for him to occupy an office that was next to Zhao Youming’s, causing him to have to face him so frequently. How annoying it was!
Zhao Yifei did his best to control his facial expression and said sarcastically, “Chief Zhao, thank you for your concern. Despite the fact that there are no obvious staffing issues recently, it doesn’t mean there won’t be any staffing issues after this. Chief Zhao, it’s best that you put in more effort in your own
department. I learned that the general manager was enraged over a project which is under your lead. If you continue to muddle through your days like this, I believe I’ll see you in the human resources department some day.”
The smile on Zhao Youming’s face turned stiff. The way he stared at the person in front of him unwittingly changed. He intuitively felt that Zhao Yifei’s hatred and hostility against him had intensified instead of subsiding. On second thought, based on Zhao Yifei’s temperament, he did not look like the
type of person who could hold himself back and merely gain a verbal advantage like now. Could it be true that the car accident had wiped off his arrogance?
Zhao Youming was taken aback upon hearing Zhao Yifei’s words. When Zhao Yifei saw this, the corners of his lips curved upward. He slowly went up to Zhao Youming’s side, bent at him and blurted out, “You must have felt regretful to learn that I’m not dead yet, aren’t you? No matter how you feel, I’ve got
a tough life that not even a car accident could do any harm to me. This shows that I am not fated to die yet! Meanwhile, the person who wished me dead is about to meet his own ill fate!”
After Zhao Yifei finished speaking, he ignored Zhao Youming’s whatever response and quickly walked out. Zhao Yifei walked as if he had wings. He really did not look like his leg was limp, if not by judging from the slight unnatural tilt from the back of his silhouette.
Zhao Youming stood in place and recalled what Zhao Yifei had said to him. His expression immediately darkened. He turned around and stared at Zhao Yifei’s silhouette. The look of resentment in his eyes only intensified..
