Summer Kiss

Chapter 149 Something Happened!

To put it simply: "The negative news surrounding Shijiu Group was orchestrated by your boyfriend, Jiang Yuning. Your boyfriend is actually quite ruthless."

He's driving us all to our deaths. I'm here just to tell you that your seemingly gentle boyfriend is actually a murderer.

Just then, a speeding motorcycle, like an out-of-control beast, rushed straight towards them.

The situation was critical. Jiang Yuning pushed Shi Jiu away, but the motorcycle turned around and charged at them again.

She was not spared and was hit by a motorcycle, flying several meters away.

Jiang Yuning was terrified and quickly dialed 120 and 110. She walked to Shi Jiu's side and squatted down. "I've already called an ambulance. You have to hang in there."

Shi Jiu was covered in blood, her breath weak. "Jiang Yuning, the person who hit me must have been your boyfriend. I advise you to leave him as soon as possible."

After a long pause, she finished speaking, her hand fell to the ground, and her life force seemed to fade like a candle flickering out.

Jiang Yuning felt a mix of emotions. Fu Xicheng was far away in the capital, so he couldn't possibly send someone to kill Shi Jiu.

If he really wanted to make a move, he would have done it long ago; why wait until today?

Soon, police cars and ambulances arrived one after another.

Jiang Yuning was an eyewitness at the scene. After giving her statement, she drove the car to the 4S shop for repairs.

Recalling Shi Jiu's words before he was hit, she stood at the entrance of the 4S store, searching for news about Shi Jiu Group on Baidu.

Just as Shi Jiu predicted, Shi Jiu Group's stock price plummeted, and negative news about the company's tax evasion and financial fraud surfaced online. Now, relevant departments have intervened in the investigation.

Jiang Yuning reviewed what had just happened in her mind; she couldn't believe that Fu Xicheng could do such a thing.

Not long after, Jiang Yuning received a call from the police.

During the phone call, the police officer in charge of the case told her that Shi died on the spot despite all efforts to save her, while the man on the motorcycle crashed through the railing and fell into the sea, resulting in his death in the crash.

Upon hearing this news, Jiang Yuning felt a chill run down her spine and trembled all over.

Filled with fear and unease, she found Fu Xicheng's phone number and dialed it.

The phone rang many times but was not answered. She opened WeChat and found her chat with Fu Xicheng.

After thinking it over for a while, she realized that sending a WeChat message to Fu Xicheng wouldn't be clear enough, so she just typed a few lines and sent them to him. Now she's just waiting for his reply.

At this moment, Jiang Yuning was both anxious and worried. She hoped that Fu Xicheng would see the WeChat message and reply to her as soon as possible so that all the doubts in her heart could be resolved.

Jiang Yuning did not receive a reply from Fu Xicheng until she went to bed.

She sighed softly and turned off her phone. Perhaps Fu Xicheng was busy; he would surely reply once he saw it.

...

As dawn broke, the first thing Jiang Yuning did upon waking was check her phone to see if Fu Xicheng had replied to her message.

The message she sent yesterday seemed to have disappeared without a trace. Undeterred, she tried calling Fu Xicheng again, but his phone remained unanswered.

Jiang Yuning thought about it carefully. She knew Fu Xicheng's social circle and who he was closest to.

She made a phone call to Xie Linzhou.

Xie Linzhou answered almost instantly.

"Miss Jiang, is there something you need for me calling so early?"

Jiang Yuning quickly explained her purpose, "President Xie, do you know Xu Yansheng's phone number? I called Fu Xicheng, but he hasn't answered. I'm very worried about him."

Xie Linzhou didn't hesitate at all; someone as cautious as Fu Xicheng couldn't possibly be in trouble.

"Don't worry, Fu Xicheng might be busy, that's why he didn't answer your call. I've sent Xu Yansheng's phone number to you on WeChat."

"Thanks." After hanging up the phone, Jiang Yuning didn't call Xu Yansheng immediately, but instead finished what she was doing first.

On her way to the company, she called Xu Yansheng.

The phone kept showing a busy tone, so Jiang Yuning didn't wait any longer and hung up the phone.

Tomorrow is Friday, and if Fu Xicheng hasn't replied to her by then, she plans to book a ticket to go to Kyoto to find him.

She prayed in her heart that Fu Xicheng would be safe and sound.

Jiang Yuning arrived at the company in a taxi. As soon as she got out of the car, she saw Meng Shuyu get out of Xie Linzhou's car.

She smiled and waved to Meng Shuyu, "Shuyu, it seems you and Xie Linzhou have made up."

Meng Shuyu nodded subconsciously, and her cheeks flushed as she recalled what had happened yesterday.

"Yu Ning, I've noticed that you understand men's hearts quite well now."

Jiang Yuning exclaimed "Ah!" and quietly moved closer to Meng Shuyu, lowering her voice.

"You kissed Xie Linzhou yesterday?"

Meng Shuyu pushed Jiang Yuning's head back, feeling secretly pleased, but her face remained expressionless.

"You already know, why are you asking?"

Jiang Yuning guessed that Meng Shuyu had appeased Xie Linzhou, but she still wanted to ask one more question, "Isn't this to confirm the result again?"

Meng Shuyu changed the subject, "What's going on with Mr. Fu? Can't you get through to him on the phone?"

Jiang Yuning hummed in agreement, and thinking of Fu Xicheng, she looked somewhat melancholy.

“He told me yesterday that he went to Kyoto. I called him and sent him WeChat messages, but he didn’t reply. To be honest, I’m quite worried about him.”

Meng Shuyu has an optimistic attitude; sometimes she is more open-minded than anyone else.

"Don't worry, Mr. Fu is such a capable person, what could possibly happen to him?"

Even the most skilled person can get injured. She had seen him injured once before, but she didn't ask any questions.

"Who told you he's so amazing?" Jiang Yuning asked.

"Xie Linzhou."

Jiang Yuning did not continue the topic; she and Meng Shuyu entered the elevator.

In the elevator, they ran into Gu Xinghe, who was coming up from the underground parking lot.

The three of them exchanged glances, but quickly looked away from each other.

Although the elevator was crowded with people, no one spoke.

The elevator quickly arrived at the design department. Jiang Yuning stepped out of the elevator, followed closely by Meng Shuyu.

Not long after starting work, the design department director summoned all members of the design department to the conference room for a meeting.

In the conference room, Director Wang said bluntly, "As everyone knows, a new branch office has opened in Kyoto. Recently, this branch office has hired a lot of new people, and the workload has increased sharply. We are all too busy to handle it all at once."

"The president specifically emphasized that each department needs to send a few people to the branch office to train new employees. Our department has three slots. I hope everyone will be proactive. The list must be submitted this morning and we will set off immediately tomorrow morning."

The scene was completely silent; no one spoke out.

Training new employees at branch offices is a tough and tiring job, often seen as a thankless task, so naturally no one is willing to take it on voluntarily.

Jiang Yuning glanced around out of the corner of her eye and noticed that they were all looking down and silent.
