When the manager saw the scene of the argument between the shop assistant and Gao Qilin, he couldn't help but show a surprised expression. He recognized Gao Qilin as the president of Qiangsheng Group.

He stepped forward and asked, "Mr. Gao, are you here to buy clothes? Why are you so angry?"

Gao Qilin sneered and said, "Shouldn't you ask your good shop assistant?"

When the shop assistant saw the manager appear, his expression changed, and he awkwardly lowered his head, not daring to look up.

After glancing at the guilty expressions on the shop assistant's face, the manager's expression gradually turned stern.

He said sternly, "You have offended our distinguished guest. How can you be qualified for this position? Get out! From today onwards, you are no longer an employee of our store."

The shop assistant was stunned when he heard the manager's decision to fire him.

His lips trembled as he mumbled, "I'm sorry... I know I was wrong."

The manager looked at the salesperson expressionlessly, his tone cold and firm: "Do you think an apology will do any good? As a salesperson, you should understand the importance of service and respect for customers."

The shop assistant lowered her head, not daring to look the manager in the eye, and showed a fearful expression before slinking away.

Next, the manager politely approached Gao Qilin and Guo Shaoheng.

He smiled and said to them, "I'm very sorry, Mr. Gao, our staff gave you an unpleasant experience. I will personally serve you, please follow me."

Gao Qilin and Guo Shaoheng exchanged a smile, satisfied with the manager's attitude.

They followed the manager into the store, where the space was bright and spacious, and various fashion items were displayed in an orderly manner.

The manager introduced the styles and features of the clothing to them while smiling as he helped them choose clothes.

Afterwards, Guo Shaoheng bought several suits on the manager's recommendation. The manager smiled and processed their payment, carefully packaged the selected clothes, and then handed them to Guo Shaoheng.

The manager smiled and said, "Mr. Gao, welcome to visit us again next time."

After leaving the fashion store, Gao Qilin and Guo Shaoheng headed to the group's building, chatting happily along the way.

After Zhao Ruilong was taken to the patrol bureau and arrested, he was locked in an interrogation room.

His arrogance remained undiminished, and he showed a contemptuous smile to the people in front of him.

Zhao Ruilong sneered, "My father is Zhao Dong! He (Nuoqian Zhao) will definitely save me!"

The young patrolman, annoyed by Zhao Ruilong's arrogance, said impatiently, "You kidnapped someone, that's a crime, and it won't matter who you talk to!"

Some of the inspectors in the patrol bureau had long heard that Zhao Ruilong had a very powerful father, and they secretly sighed, fearing that Zhao Ruilong would be released again this time.

Next, the director of the inspection bureau sat in his spacious and bright office, diligently processing some documents.

Suddenly, his phone rang.

He picked up the phone, and upon hearing that it was Zhao Dong's secretary calling, his expression immediately became solemn and serious.

"Director, this is Zhao Dong's secretary," a deep voice came from the other end of the phone.

Chapter 649 A Lesson

The bureau chief put down the documents and respectfully replied, "Hello, is there anything I can do for you?"

Secretary Zhao Dong took a deep breath. "Mr. Zhao Ruilong is currently being held in the patrol bureau. He's Mr. Zhao's son. You know what to do, right?"

The inspector nodded, his expression turning serious: "I understand, please rest assured. I will handle this matter immediately."

After hanging up the phone, the director of the patrol bureau stood up and paused at the door of the interrogation room. The young patrol officer in front of him was still standing there.

"Open the door to Zhao Ruilong's interrogation room," the patrol bureau chief ordered calmly.

The young inspector hurriedly obeyed and opened the door to the interrogation room where Zhao Ruilong was being held.

Zhao Ruilong was brought out, and the director of the inspection bureau looked at him and said with a smile, "Mr. Zhao Ruilong, you can leave now."

Zhao Ruilong understood why he was able to be released from 987, and a hint of smugness flashed in his eyes.

The young inspector was enraged by Zhao Ruilong's arrogant attitude and couldn't help but want to teach him a lesson.

He strode forward, his eyes flashing with fury.

However, just as the young inspector was about to take action, a hand stopped him from the side.

He was the director of the inspection bureau; his face was calm but his expression was solemn.

"Young comrade," the patrol bureau chief warned in a low voice, "don't act based on personal emotions."

The young inspector stood there, understanding the bureau chief's meaning, and did not make any further moves.

But the anger still burned in my heart and was hard to quell.

Seeing this, Zhao Ruilong did not hide his smugness and mockery. "It seems that you so-called patrolmen are nothing but a bunch of cowardly and useless cowards."

After that, Zhao Ruilong left the inspection bureau triumphantly.

Meanwhile, at the Qiangsheng Group, Gao Qilin sat in his office, contemplating how to take revenge on Zhao Ruilong. After all, he couldn't swallow his anger if he didn't teach Zhao Ruilong a lesson.

Gao Qilin called Chen Shuting and told her, "Zhao Ruilong has gone too far. He actually dared to kidnap Guo Shaoheng. Shuting, can you think of a way to cause some trouble for Zhao Ruilong's company?"

Chen Shuting agreed over the phone, and then she found a few workers to go to Zhao Ruilong's company and cut off the power.

The following evening, several workers hired by Chen Shuting quietly entered the gate of Zhao Ruilong's company.

They were very careful with every move, trying their best not to attract anyone's attention.

They walked through the quiet hall and came to the door of the switch room.

This small room contains a rich and complex electrical system, serving as the control center for the power supply of the entire office building.

The workers worked together seamlessly, with one person observing the surroundings, another unlocking the door, and the third pulling down the main switch.

They operated skillfully and completed the task quickly.

With a loud bang, the entire office building was plunged into darkness.

Zhao Ruilong's company's once bustling and brightly lit office (bgci) was now completely dark.

Zhao Ruilong's employees were startled by the sudden darkness, and they ran around in all directions.

Without any lighting to guide it, the entire floor was filled with a chaotic atmosphere.

"What's going on? Why is the power out?" someone shouted angrily.

"Mr. Zhao, what's going on? Our power suddenly went out!" someone anxiously reported to Zhao Ruilong.

Zhao Ruilong's face turned ashen, and a flash of anger appeared in his eyes.

He walked out of his office and faced the employees who had become a mess. He suppressed his dissatisfaction and tried to distract them.

"Everyone calm down! Keep order, I'll contact the repairmen right away!" Zhao Ruilong shouted authoritatively.

Meanwhile, Chen Shuting received news that Zhao Ruilong's company was in chaos, and she was very satisfied with the people she had recruited.

The sudden darkness disrupted the work progress of everyone in Zhao Ruilong's company, causing dissatisfaction among employees.

Not long after, power was fully restored to the group's building.

Zhao Ruilong's face turned ashen. He felt that this power outage was not accidental, but rather an act of revenge by Gao Qilin.

He sat in his office, his fingers gripping the armrests of his chair tightly, a flash of anger in his eyes.

At this point, his resentment towards Gao Qilin had reached its peak.

"Damn Gao Qilin! Do you think you can easily fool me?" Zhao Ruilong said through gritted teeth.

Just as Zhao Ruilong resolved to take revenge on Gao Qilin, his phone suddenly rang.

He was startled; his father, Zhao Dong, had called him.

He quickly picked up his phone to answer the call.

"Hey, Dad." Zhao Ruilong's voice sounded somewhat sullen.

Zhao Dong's icy voice came from the other end of the phone: "I didn't call you to hear your dejected tone."

Zhao Ruilong bit his lower lip tightly, lowered his head, and dared not look up at the city bathed in light outside the window.

His father's stern reminder filled him with a sense of frustration.

"Have you been looking for trouble with Gao Qilin lately?" Zhao Dong asked coldly.

"No..." Zhao Ruilong answered cautiously.

Chapter 650 Elder Zhong's Warning

Zhao Dong said coldly, "My superiors have spoken to me. That guy surnamed Zhong wants to find something on me. Don't cause me any trouble at this time."

After Zhao Dong hung up the phone, Zhao Ruilong stared blankly at his phone screen. He lowered his head, filled with anger and frustration. But he knew that now was not the time to take revenge on Gao Qilin.

“Gao Qilin…” Zhao Ruilong’s lips curled into a cold smile. “Just wait and see. When the time is right, I will make you pay the price.”

Gao Qilin paced back and forth in his office, lost in thought. He was puzzled by Zhao Ruilong's behavior.

Based on his understanding of Zhao Ruilong, he believed that Zhao Ruilong should have already taken action to retaliate against his company.

But several days passed, and nothing unusual happened.

Gao Qilin stopped and stood by the window, gazing at the bustling city nightscape outside. He was now alone in the quiet office. He clenched his fists, his brow furrowed slightly.

"Why didn't Zhao Ruilong cause me any further trouble? Could it be that he had already given up on the idea of ​​revenge? Impossible." This thought involuntarily popped into Gao Qilin's mind.

Under the dim light, he sat quietly at the table, deep in thought.

Gao Qilin thought to himself, "Perhaps Zhao Ruilong encountered some accident that prevented him from causing me trouble."
