Chapter 85 - I hope you are ready.

"What proposition?" Jing Lihua was surprised. Looking at his expressions, she couldn't find anything that could tell if he was being sincere or it was one of his other tricks. Jing Lihua wouldn't be fool enough to trust him... not again.

But whatever he had wanted to say did pique her interest. "How's is it related to my grandfather?" She wouldn't do anything that harmed her grandfather. So she had to listen to whatever he had to say.

"The proposition. I don't think you are a stupid woman as you have proved in the last few weeks." The side of Su Liwei lips twitched upward. "You must now that if the Su empire turns against you, you'll stand no chance in Beijing. That is the reason you haven't confronted me directly till yet. Means you must have known that before."

"So...?" Jing Lihua didn't know where he wanted to get by mentioning that.

"Hand over your company willingly and I'll help you get the best escape out of the situation." He suddenly said.

For a moment Jing Lihua couldn't understand what he meant by that. But when she understood, she merely smiled at him. "Thank you for the gracious proposition, Mr. Su. But I'm afraid I must decline."

"You don't understand the gravity of the situation." Su Liwei had expected that response. "I am providing you with the best I can within my abilities. I can assure yours and your grandfather's safety in exchange for that."

"How am I supposed to understand that? You are asking me to give up my company. The whole argument is comical." Jing Lihua had enough of him. She pulled open the door. "If you'll excuse me."

"Then are you sure you ready to fight me?" Su Liwei asked before she left.

"Yes, I'm" Jing Lihua glanced back and answered with a smile. And just like that, she left.

When she left, Su Liwei stayed at his place for a long time. "Jing Lihua I hope you are ready. I can't stop my uncle any longer from coming at you."

...

When Jing Lihua walked out of the hotel, she was in deep thoughts. "What could he possibly mean by that?" She had no idea. "What did he want to achieve?" Jing Lihua was inclined to think that he had ulterior motives but...

There was something wrong there. Either he was being sincere or he an exceptional skill of faking. "He hasn't done anything like this in my past life." Jing Lihua didn't want to think about it. She had Wang Yi drive her to Li Zhiqiang's office.

During the ride, Jing Lihua glanced at Wang Yi. "My previous chauffeur Zhang Zhehan suffered an accident, did he?" Jing Lihua remembered the second day she was reincarnated something that didn't happen in her previous life happened. The chauffeur was replaced by Wang Yi.

"W-Well, Ms. Jing..." Wang Yi broke into a cold sweat.

"What did you do to him?" Jing Lihua's lips curled up. She didn't want to scare Li Zhiqiang man. She was just curious.

"Zhang ZheHan declined to give up his position so we had him transported aboard." Wang Yi said.

"Did he go willingly?" After a pause Jing Lihua said. "Of course not willingly. You guys would have forced him. Now that I know that you intend no ill, have him back if he wishes to. I'll let you keep your position."

Jing Lihua climbed out of the car and walked into the spacious lobby. She glanced around the interior. And it wouldn't be wrong to say that she was impressed. "This President Li sure have some taste"

She walked to the reception lady. "On which floor, President Li's office is situated?"

The reception lady paused the call and looked up with shock. There hasn't been anyone who would directly ask for President Li. "I'm sorry miss, you'll have to get an appointment to meet him." Did she want to see him like that? She must be joking! The type of people they would let in. The reception lady shook her head and went back to attend her call ignoring Jing Lihua. In any case, the reception lady thought, the woman didn't deserve her time.

"You don't understand. President Li himself gave me the time." Jing Lihua tried her best to be polite.

At this, the reception lady put down the phone. She looked like she was very irritated. "Are you telling me that President Li, who would not give more than five minutes to the famous tycoon of Hong Kong, would personally give you a call? He has his employees do the job." The reception lady raised her eyebrow at Jing Lihua. "Please leave the premises. We don't want any trouble."

"If you could give a call and confirm it..."

"I said leave!" The lady's voice rose considerably. The reception lady was already having a bad day. This woman was irking her to death. She just wanted to have her thrown out of there. "Or I'll have to call the security. I'll not allow you to go up any further."

"Do you have to be like this? Just give a call to President Li's secretary to confirm." Jing Lihua could be polite. However, if the other person was going to be crap, she wasn't going to act nice either.

"We have thousands of people like you coming every day claiming they had an appointment with President Li. Now if we gave a call for every such person, wouldn't it be troublesome?"

Jing Lihua couldn't really grasp the situation. For one, she realized how important a man this President Li was. She walked back to give Li Zhiqiang a call but just then, she spotted Li Xun.

"What's happening?" Li Xun observed the commotion.

Catching the sight of Li Xun, the reception lady's demeanor changed completely. The frowns on her face disappeared and were replaced by all smiles. She quickly stood and gave a bow to Li Xun showing her respect. "Mr. Li, this woman accidentally found her way here. I was guiding her out." Her job required her to be respectful towards the visitors. Just now she had been very disrespectful because she was in a bad mood.

Damn it! Did Li Xun had to appear here right now? But she was confident she could handle the situation.

"Is that so?" Li Xun was wise. He quickly grasped the situation.

"Yes, Mr. Li. This lady claimed that she had been personally invited by President Li. Isn't that ridiculous? But anyway I followed the company rules and wanted to guide her out 'politely'. But she had been persistent that I gave a call to President Li secretary. I know that President Li can not be disturbed for matters like this. But the lady refused to leave. So I had no other option but to threaten her that I'll call the security."
