C165 (1/2)
He had light gray hair and a gray suit. He was tall and slender with a perfect face and elegant, noble steps.
Ling Yiheng had changed into a new set of clothes she had bought at the clothing store. As soon as she had walked out of the store, she had attracted the attention of countless people.
Zhou Heng quickly opened the door for him, allowing Ling Yiheng to get on the car as fast as he could. Considering that he was secretly photographed at the last business gathering, in such a short period of time, if not necessary, Ling Yiheng didn't want to appear in public.
This section of the road was not far from the high-speed rail station. In addition, Zhou Heng had always made proper arrangements. When they arrived, they immediately boarded the high-speed rail to Paris, where they sat on a first-class passenger seat.
There weren't many people at this time of the year, so he was able to quietly reply to work emails with his laptop.
Although Zhou Heng repeatedly reminded him that he could help Ling Yiheng reply to emails, Ling Yiheng was still reluctant to do so for some important work. It wasn't that he didn't trust Zhou Heng, who had been following him for so many years. It was just that he had developed the habit of doing important work by himself.
As the train moved forward at high speed, Ling Yiheng's ears were stuffed with noise-proof earplugs. He was staring straight at the computer screen, his slender fingers occasionally tapping on the keyboard. Zhou Heng asked the conductor for a cup of coffee, but hesitated to pass it to him.
Although Ling Yiheng tried his best to maintain his best condition, he couldn't hide the fatigue between his brows. As a good friend and assistant, he was worried that if Ling Yiheng continued to work like this, his body would have another problem, but he understood that he could not persuade this stubborn boss.
Ling Yiheng, who was typing a reply to an email, saw a news message popping up from the bottom of the computer. He reached out his hand to press ”close”, but saw a familiar name on it — Dix Winery.
His gaze darkened as he immediately clicked on it.
There wasn't much information on the news, only a few lines of words that were placed together with other news. However, the words ”Di x winery's Qian Jin who sold houses to support the winery's management” was clearly imprinted in front of his eyes.
Ling Yiheng's eyes were filled with frost. He didn't expect that she would really want to sell her house.
Previously, he had obtained this information through Zhou Heng. However, he had always felt that this was a place that she had lived in for more than ten years and would not sell it so easily.
Damned woman, why did she have to be so stubborn? He wouldn't turn to him for help in anything.
But looking at it from another point of view, she also didn't go to Rui Chen Yang for help. Otherwise, things wouldn't have gotten to this point.
Ling Yiheng temporarily stopped what he was doing, and instructed Zhou Heng to investigate all the listed companies in Zuo Zixian's house, and tell them to remove their signs within one day, and not to allow them to sell or auction them in any way.
”Boss, isn't this request a bit too …” Zhou Heng looked at Ling Yiheng with some hesitation after listening to his instructions. The latter half of his sentence was cut off when he saw the sharp look in Ling Yiheng's eyes.
”I don't care what method you use, all I want is the result.” His tone was impassive.
”Yes, Boss.”
Actually, Ling Yiheng rarely used such a tough tone to order him to do something, because they usually cooperated with him on matters of work, but it seemed that the matter regarding Zuo Zixian would cause Ling Yiheng's emotions to fluctuate greatly, making it hard for Zhou Heng to say anything.
When Zuo Zixian's phone rang on the table, he was in the consultation room examining it. The phone was placed on the table in the doctor's office, and only Rui Chen Yang was there to guard it.
Seeing that it was Ling Yiheng on the phone, a hint of displeasure appeared on Rui Chen Yang's gentle face.
He ignored the call and let it ring.
Ling Yiheng, who could not get through to Zuo Zixian's phone here, became more and more angry, and his face became more and more unsightly.
Could it be that the woman was worried about the winery, so she decided not to go to the hospital?
Looking down at the time on his watch, he calculated the time for the meeting back in Paris, then made a quick decision. ”Zhou Heng, help me book the six o'clock train back to Strasbourg.”
Zhou Heng was obviously a little taken aback. They had already arrived in Paris at around four o'clock, and if they were to hold a meeting for around an hour and sit at Galt's for six o'clock, it would be tiring to talk about the lack of time.
However, seeing Ling Yiheng's expression and knowing that he would not change his mind, he could only resign himself to his fate and help him get his vote.
After Zuo Zixian finished his inspection and returned to the clinic, Rui Chen Yang immediately stood up from his chair and reached out to support her, ”Zixian, are you alright?”
She couldn't help but laugh at his fussy appearance, ”I was just doing an examination, so what? Don't be so nervous, my limbs are very healthy, you don't have to help me.”
Rui Chen Yang was stunned, and awkwardly let go of her arm.
”What did the doctor say? Do you still need to be hospitalized? ” he asked, his voice low.
Zuo Zixian curled his lips, ”The doctor said that because I had a severe cold and fainted before, I should stay in the hospital for observation for the sake of safety.”
In fact, she repeatedly hoped that the doctor would let her leave the hospital, but the other side didn't agree at all.
No matter how she thought about it, it must have all been Ling Yiheng's idea. If it weren't for the fact that he made the doctors keep an eye on her, she wouldn't need to be hospitalized for such a small matter.
However, despite his anger, he still resigned himself to his fate and returned to the ward.
