CCTV News: In Beijing, Chen Shuting brings a woman to her door.

Guo Shaoheng, who was watching this scene, was dumbfounded and exclaimed: "President!"

Gao Qilin's eyes grew even colder, and he quickly responded, demonstrating excellent reaction skills.

He fought back fiercely with the waiter, creating a chaotic scene in the private room.

The other customers in the hall screamed and scattered in all directions.

Unwilling to accept defeat, the waiter frantically tried to rush towards Gao Qilin again.

However, Gao Qilin easily subdued her and knocked her unconscious to the ground.

He leaned down to observe her, his expression revealing a hint of wariness and suspicion. After Gao Qilin brought the unconscious waitress to his office for questioning, Guo Shaoheng rushed to the office.

Gao Qilin sat in a luxurious leather chair, his hands gripping the armrests tightly, his brows furrowed.

His gaze was fixed on the waitress beside him, watching her casually.

Guo Shaoheng stood in front of the waitress, questioning her seriously and firmly: "Why did you attack the president? Who ordered you to do it?"

The waiter's lips curled into a smug smile. "Haha, you'd never guess!"

Guo Shaoheng noticed that her attitude and expression were somewhat unusual. He stared intently at her and said, "Do you think we can't see through your disguise? Tell me the truth!"

The waiter sneered, "Only I know the truth. If you want to know the answer, you'll have to pay the price."

Gao Qilin anxiously looked around, eagerly awaiting the truth, yet also filled with doubt about what might be hidden behind it.

Guo Shaoheng continued to question the waiter with a serious expression, "If you don't tell the truth, the consequences could be even more serious."

The waiter gave Guo Shaoheng a defiant look, "What can you do? I assure you, I will not compromise."

Guo Shaoheng smiled slightly; he could see the fear and unease in the waitress's heart through her mask.

He clenched his fist slightly. "Do you think we have no way out? Tell me the truth, or you will regret it."

The waitress was intimidated by Guo Shaoheng's resolute gaze. After hesitating for a moment, she finally relented, "Zhao Ruilong... he ordered me to attack the president."

When Gao Qilin heard this name, his eyes became even colder.

Zhao Ruilong is his biggest competitor and one of his most troublesome enemies in the business world.

"Are you sure?" Gao Qilin asked in a low voice.

The waiter nodded. "That's right, Zhao Ruilong wants to undermine you and seize the power you hold."

Gao Qilin pondered silently, knowing that this 2.9 was not a simple matter.

The forces behind Zhao Ruilong are not to be underestimated; their goal is far more than just to strike at him personally, but to destroy the entire Qiangsheng Group in one fell swoop. Gao Qilin's eyes were fixed on the waiter, his gaze revealing determination and resolve.

He knew it was time to take action.

He turned to face Guo Shaoheng, his voice low and firm: "Take her to Zhao Ruilong's company."

Guo Shaoheng nodded, immediately knocked the waitress unconscious, and stared at her coldly.

"I will personally take her to Zhao Ruilong's company and tell him not to do anything like this again."

Chapter 686 Poisoning

Gao Qilin took a deep breath and pulled himself out of his thoughts.

At this moment, he could not hesitate. He had to face Zhao Ruilong, a powerful and cunning opponent.

Gao Qilin took out a watch from his pocket and glanced at the time.

They were still an hour's drive from Zhao Ruilong's company, but Gao Qilin was not going to wait any longer.

He has decided to solve this problem himself.

Gao Qilin put on his suit jacket, straightened his collar slightly, and stared resolutely at himself in the mirror.

He carefully examined the blood flowing through every inch of Zhao Ruilong's skin, determined to show him the consequences of angering him.

Guo Shaoheng left after throwing the waiter into Zhao Ruilong's company.

Zhao Ruilong gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with malice and cruelty as he glared at the waitress who had been dragged in. He angrily pointed at the beautiful waitress and hoarsely ordered Ding Shilai, "Take care of her! Don't disappoint me!"

Ding Shilai sensed Zhao Ruilong's anger and dared not disobey his orders, though he was inwardly turmoil.

He understood that Zhao Ruilong had always wanted to bring down Gao Qilin, but the beautiful waitress in front of him had not yet accomplished her mission.

Ding Shilai knew in his heart that he would never let her go, but he could not bring himself to go against his conscience.

A smug smile appeared on Zhao Ruilong's face; clearly, he already had a plan.

He told Ding Shilai, "Remember, you must complete this task! Otherwise, you will regret it." Zhao Ruilong sat in his office in a luxurious leather chair, his eyes gleaming with a cunning glint as he stared at the phone.

He knew that only through Zhang Ming could he realize his revenge plan against Gao Qilin.

At this moment, he was eagerly awaiting her response.

The call was finally answered, and Zhang Ming's cold yet practiced voice came from behind, "Hello, what do you want?"

Zhao Ruilong's voice revealed a hint of malice and smugness, "Zhang Ming, I have a task for you."

"A mission?" Zhang Ming asked calmly, "What kind of mission?"

Zhao Ruilong chuckled, "Put some poison on Gao Qilin."

This unexpected request startled Zhang Ming slightly, but she quickly regained her composure.

She knew she couldn't show any emotion. "Okay, I'll do it as soon as possible."

“Remember, this is a slow-acting poison,” Zhao Ruilong warned grimly. “Let him die slowly.”

"Understood," Zhang Ming replied crisply.

Meanwhile, in Gao Qilin's office, Zhang Ming stood before him, her eyes resolute.

"What do you want?" Gao Qilin asked, frowning slightly.

Although Zhang Ming was flustered, she knew it was time to confess.

"Zhao Ruilong asked me to poison you."

Gao Qilin frowned even more deeply. "What did you say?"

Zhang Ming bit her lip and continued, "He told me to give you a slow-acting poison so you would die slowly."

Gao Qilin remained silent for a moment, a cold glint flashing in his ruthless eyes. "I understand."

Zhang Ming's heart sank. She didn't know what the consequences would be after she said those words. "I'm sorry..."

“You did nothing wrong.” Gao Qilin interrupted her apology. “Thank you for telling me this.”

Zhang Ming stared at him in disbelief, not expecting Gao Qilin to be so calm. "Aren't you angry?" Gao Qilin looked into Zhang Ming's eyes, his gaze revealing a hint of appreciation and trust.

“Zhang Ming, I believe you wouldn’t do such a thing,” he said calmly.

Zhang Ming felt Gao Qilin's trust, and her worries were temporarily put to rest.

She knew that with Gao Qilin's wisdom and skills, he would definitely be able to handle this matter well.

"Thank you for believing me." She smiled slightly.

Gao Qilin gently shook his head. "You don't need to apologize. You just made the right choice at the right time. Now, I'm going to use this opportunity to get rid of Zhao Ruilong."

Zhang Ming looked at him questioningly, "What do you plan to do?"

Gao Qilin revealed a cold smile, "We will put Zhao Ruilong in a desperate situation. He tried to get rid of me, 010, with poison, so I will let him taste the bitterness of defeat."

A hint of understanding flashed in Zhang Ming's eyes. "You mean you want him to fall into a trap he set?"

Gao Qilin nodded. "That's right. Go find Ding Shilai and tell him I've been poisoned. Have him quickly relay this to Zhao Ruilong. At the same time, pretend that the poison has been administered and make him believe that our plan has succeeded."

Zhang Ming hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded. "Okay, I will do as you say."

Gao Qilin stood up, his gaze deep. "Remember, we need to defeat Zhao Ruilong. This time, he must pay the price." The moment Gao Qilin stepped into the water province, he could sense that the atmosphere here was different from the cities he was familiar with.

The streets are clean and tidy, with tall buildings standing tall, and the flow of people is busy yet orderly.

He was well-dressed and walked down the street with a determined look in his eyes, exuding confidence and resolve.

As I passed a small shop, a sudden burst of panicked noise erupted.

Chapter 687 Yu Zhonglan

Gao Qilin instantly became alert. He quickly approached the store and saw a beautiful woman having her bag snatched by a daring robber.

"Put down her bag!" Gao Qilin said coldly and firmly, and he chased after the robber without hesitation.

The robbers were enraged when they saw that Gao Qilin dared to stop them.

Seeing himself cornered, he gripped the knife tightly in his hand and threatened through gritted teeth: You still dare to go against me? Watch out or I'll stab you!

Gao Qilin smiled calmly, his eyes revealing a hint of disdain and mockery.

"You think you can threaten me with that knife?" Gao Qilin's voice was as cold as ice as he easily cornered the robber against the wall.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the robber panicked and tried to fight back, but Gao Qilin was incredibly fast. In a few flashes, he was subdued by Gao Qilin.

Gao Qilin picked up the package that had been thrown on the ground and handed it back to the woman.

The woman looked at Gao Qilin with tears in her eyes, her gratitude overflowing.

"Thank you for saving me!" The woman's trembling voice was filled with gratitude and admiration. She took the bag from Gao Qilin, her eyes revealing a hint of appreciation as she felt grateful and respectful.

She couldn't help but want to know more about this brave yet ruthless man.
