Not even a day had passed and everyone in the entire office knew that Lisa was not as kind as his father. In fact, he had fired not just one, but five executives that morning. These included some senior and operations managers, who had been working with FC Oils for more than ten years.
Furthermore, Lisa had told these five people to expect a call from the company's lawyers and prepare to pay back everything they owed to the company due to their illegal dealings and dishonesty.
Without any delay, this news made its way to all the leaders of other companies who were intently watching the Manoban Conglomerate.
"It seems he got his ruthlessness from his mother," Li Qiang chuckled when he heard the news from Hu Renjie.
"That man doesn't know what he is doing! Embarrassing me like this. Hmp! Did he think that I will not make him pay for what he has done?" Hu Renjie sneered. "I need your help to deal with him. After all, you also benefited from the millions that I took from the Manoban Conglomerate." .
Li Qiang's face immediately darkened upon hearing Hu Renjie's words. He stared at the fat old man who was sitting across from him. "Are you trying to tell me what to do?"
Seeing Li Qiang's cold gaze instantly made Hu Renjie nervous. He immediately held his hands up and amiably smiled at Li Qiang. "No... No... Mr. Li, calm down. I was just giving a suggestion, that's all... I would never tell you what to do... hehe."
He nervously watched Li Qiang as sweat started to soak his back. The man in front of him was like the Asura of the business world; he was not only smart, but he was also extremely ruthless and had an extreme desire for bloodshed.
"Good. Be thankful that I don't want to smell like blood today, or else you would have been dead by now," Li Qiang said before downing a glass of wine. "Don't forget that it was you who failed to acquire all the shares that I wanted."
"Right... Right... I apologize Mr. Li..." Hu Renjie stuttered. "However, I did get you a list of the Manoban Family's black market contacts. This... This list is not complete, but it's a start... He-Here, take a look" he said before handing over a piece of paper that he had stolen from Marco Manoban's office. His hands were shaking from nervousness.
"Fool!" Li Qiang said before tearing the paper to pieces. "These are not their contacts, stupid! Get out! Don't call me again until you obtain that list!"
Hu Renjie did not even take another breath before running out of Li Qiang's office. He instantly made his way to his car and breathed a sigh of relief the moment he locked himself inside. "Drive... Drive...," he urged his driver. He needed to get away from this place before Li Qiang changed his mind and decided to kill him.
After making sure that he was at least a mile away, Hu Renjie let out a long sigh and wiped away the sweat from his forehead. It had been two years since he had first met Li Qiang and the fear that he felt towards the man was still the same.
He knew that the only reason why he was still alive was that Li Qiang could still use him. However, he knew that once Li Qiang deemed him as useless, he would automatically disappear from this world, just like everyone else who had worked with Li Qiang in the past.
As sad as it may seem, that was a fact. No matter how much he detested Li Qiang, Hu Renjie knew that he couldn't get away from an evil man like him. He had already sold his soul to Li Qiang the moment he had asked for his help two years ago.
The only way he could keep his miserable life now was to provide Li Qiang with everything that he wanted from the Manoban Family.
Speaking of the Manoban Family, Hu Renjie's heart became even more sour. He couldn't understand why Li Qiang wanted the Manoban Family's list of contacts in the black market.
Until now, Hu Renjie couldn't understand Li Qiang's motives behind his desire to acquire the Manoban Conglomerate. It couldn't be because of money, as everyone knew that Li Qiang's international business ventures could amount to billions. Could it be greed? Or just pure hate?

Meanwhile, the news had also reached Jennie's ears after Bei Ye obediently narrated everything to her.
Somehow, this side of Lisa was making her laugh in glee. Her man was slowly showing his wings to everyone.
And she loved it.
"Young Miss, Young Master said that he would meet you at the hospital later. He also said he is going to take you to dinner after visiting the Madam and the Master," Bei Ye respectfully said.
"Hmmm... Got it." Jennie just nodded and went to prepare for their visit to the hospital. Since it was a surprise trip, they hadn't been able to bring many clothes. She immediately made a mental note to go shopping with Lisa when they were free.
After a few minutes, Jennie left her room wearing a casual white mid-thigh dress paired with black ankle-high boots. Her outfit made her look casual and sexy at the same time.
Bei Ye immediately drove Jennie to the hospital to meet with Lisa. Right now, both Wang Bolin and Bei Ye were acting as Jennie's bodyguards while Lisa used the company car and driver.
On their way to the hospital, Jennie's gaze was glued on the current billboard on one of the buildings in the middle of the city.
She squinted her eyes as memories from the past flooded her.
Then, she murmured, her eyes full of mirth, « Kim Nancy . ».
