Chapter 1102 Angels Arrive 53
When Lingyao opened her eyes again, she found herself lying in a hospital.
The smell of disinfectant filled the air.
Lingyao sat up, and just then the door opened, and a nurse carrying medicine pushed the door open and came in.
Seeing Lingyao get up, he quickly went forward to help her up.
"Be careful, you were in a car accident and have a concussion, but thankfully you weren't seriously injured. Is there anything else that's bothering you?"
The nurse asked her questions with concern and professionalism.
"No."
Apart from feeling a little dizzy, Lingyao felt fine.
The only thing that made her realize something was wrong was the completely refreshed memories in her mind that belonged to the original owner.
The reason the original owner was in a car accident today was because she was unfamiliar with the traffic rules in China after fleeing from abroad. In addition, she had been hungry for too long and did not pay attention to the road when crossing the street. When the vehicle was passing, she walked into the middle of the road and was hit directly.
The driver who hit her took her to the hospital, paid her medical bills after learning that she was not seriously injured, and then hurriedly left.
Because the plot has changed, Zhong Yanchuan's leg was not crippled, so the Fu family did not need to call Fu Lingyao back from abroad, but Fu Lingyao escaped back on her own.
After receiving the memories belonging to the original owner, Lingyao only had one sentence to say.
Then all the companies she acquired would have been for nothing.
It was as if they knew what she was thinking.
Get rich instantly!
[Congratulations, host, on completing the side quest and rewriting Zhong Yanchuan's fate. The quest reward of one billion has been credited to your account.]
[Congratulations, host, the hidden mission is 80% complete. The mission reward is 50 billion in cash and 30 years of life.]
Lingyao: Okay, that works too.
Anyway, we've already gone through the same steps with those companies, so repeating them is much easier.
Lingyao rested in the hospital for two days, and was discharged as soon as she was fully recovered.
Then they started looking for people to investigate Zhong Yanchuan's background.
Because the money was in place, it only took a day and a half to send the folder to Lingyao.
Lingyao opened it and saw Zhong Yanchuan's almost dazzling resume over the years.
After the explosion that year, the Zhong family was immediately caught in a crisis of being besieged.
As Zhong Xiaochen's only legitimate heir, Zhong Yanchuan not only has to fight against his adopted son, but also against many of the rivals Zhong Xiaochen has previously provoked.
Enemy from both sides.
However, just when everyone thought that the Zhong family's powerful business empire was about to collapse and they were eager to grab a slice of this lucrative prize, Zhong Yanchuan quickly and swiftly purged the company, kicking out his adopted son and his adopted son's confidants.
While his methods were not as ruthless and vicious as his father's, they were not weak either when facing the menacing rivals outside.
He seemed much easier to talk to than his father, but in reality, he was only easy to talk to; when it came to things that needed to be written into a contract, he wouldn't budge an inch.
He was even more tactful than his father. His father was too ruthless and arrogant, making it easy to find fault with him. Zhong Xiaochen was used to being arrogant and wasn't afraid even if he had something to hide.
His son, Zhong Yanchuan, was the complete opposite. He was meticulous in his work, not only seeking the lion's share of the profits but also a good reputation.
In less than six months after he took over the Chung family business, the Chung family's reputation and prestige among various media outlets and local residents rose dramatically.
Even regarding Zhong Xiaochen's car accident, initially the media and the public said that he brought it upon himself because he had offended too many people and was being retaliated against.
Later, it gradually became clear that the royal family felt their imperial power was being challenged, so they deliberately murdered someone because the Zhong family had prevented the royal family from profiting from the situation, and they were trying to take revenge.
And the Zhong family's products were indeed cheaper than some of the established local businesses when they entered the London market.
The Zhong family was initially subject to various government controls. It was only after the old man of the Zhong family voluntarily settled in London and paid a large sum of taxes to the government that the situation was alleviated.
However, Zhong Xiaochen was the old man's illegitimate son, and he was not included when the household registration was initially set up. Zhong Yanchuan's registration was not changed either.
Immediately, all sorts of conspiracy theories emerged.
Given this public opinion environment, it's not appropriate for the royal family to do anything to the Zhong family at this critical juncture.
Those companies that wanted a share of the profits from the Zhong family quickly gave up their plans after several clashes with Zhong Yanchuan.
Is the Zhong family just blessed with good genes or simply incredibly lucky?
Although Old Master Zhong's generation had children everywhere, none of them had any business acumen; whatever they did resulted in losses. Just when everyone thought the Zhong family was about to decline, Old Master Zhong suddenly called back his illegitimate son, Zhong Xiaochen...
Zhong Xiaochen had few children over the years, with only Zhong Yanchuan as his sole offspring, yet he was capable of having ten children at a young age and already possessed the power to wield authority.
Just when everyone thought the Zhong family was about to monopolize the market again, Zhong Yanchuan, who had spent three years in London stabilizing the entire company, returned to China with his team to establish a new company.
They gradually transferred all their overseas business to the domestic market.
As for Zhong Xiaochen, the explosion took away half his life and his leg. After waking up, he couldn't accept that he had become a cripple and became irritable and crazy all day long.
Zhong Yanchuan hired a medical team and several caregivers for him and arranged for him to receive treatment at a clinic.
Without Zhong Yanchuan's orders, we'll never get out...
At 2 PM, Lingyao went to the company address she found in the information.
The two large characters "Zhongyao" are hung on this tall office building.
Lingyao went inside and explained her purpose to the receptionist.
"Hello, miss, do you have an appointment? The CEO is quite busy, so you may need to make an appointment in advance to see him."
"When do you get off work?"
Lingyao came in a hurry and didn't make an appointment, but it's not a big deal. She can just wait until she gets off work to wait for her.
The receptionist glanced at Ling Yao.
The girl in front of me has an outstanding temperament. She has long, straight black hair parted in the middle. Most people who are not good-looking would not dare to try this hairstyle. If their forehead is slightly large or their face shape is slightly uneven, these flaws will be magnified.
But the girl in front of me had a small head and face, smooth facial contours, and delicate features that completely supported the look. She wasn't ugly at all; on the contrary, she was incredibly beautiful. Coupled with her indifferent expression, even the receptionist couldn't help but take another look at her.
You know, jobs like receptionist positions only hire pretty girls, and they've seen plenty of beautiful women before.
Even so, he couldn't help but glance at the girl in front of him.
Looking at her outfit, it's not simple either. She's wearing a Burberry off-white double-breasted short trench coat, full of design sense, and a chestnut-colored short skirt with matching boots. Her long legs are long, white, and straight—simply stunning.
