Chapter 119: Rescuing Tang Bingyun
[At around 7:30 PM, in the Guose Tianxiang Headquarters.]
Tang Bingyun had just finished her work and was about to leave.
At that moment, her phone rang.
[Caller ID: Mrs. Shen]
She was a bit confused when she read the caller ID.
When she thought about it, she didnt know Mrs. Shen all that well. Theyd only met a few times and left the other with their contact info.
However, they never once communicated through their phones.
So why is she calling me?
She had her doubts, but Tang Bingyun answered the phone regardless. And after exchanging a few polite greetings with Mrs. Shen, she decided to get straight to business.
[Ms. Tang, my sincerest apologies for being so rash. But recently, Ive been interested in purchasing a set of jade jewellery. Are you free?] But before she ask herself, Mrs. Shen explained the purpose of her call.
Tang Bingyun felt a bit tired. She wanted to go back and rest, so socializing was the last thing on her mind. But after thinking about it, she couldnt help but ask:
To make things more convenient, might I ask how much is your budget, Mrs. Shen?
Naturally, there was a point to this question.
If Mrs. Shens budget isnt that high, then she can simply visit the store tomorrow.
That way, itll be far less troublesome for Tang Bingyun.
The moment she asked her question, Mrs. Shen paused for more than 10 seconds, before replying:
[Not much, around 15 million.]
1Samael: I almost forgot these people were billionaires.
When she heard this, Tang Bingyun couldnt help but be overjoyed. Shed received a sudden burst of energy, her weariness suddenly gone.
The profit she makes for each jade sold is quite high, especially the more expensive ones.
If Mrs. Shen were to truly spend 15 million to buy jade, then Tang Bingyun would earn at least 30% 40%.
Of course, shed be interested!
The company here is busy with something, but since Mrs. Shen has asked, then Ill find a way to clear my schedule and find some spare time. Feel free to name the location.
Though she was overjoyed, Tang Bingyun did well to keep a calm voice. Her statements made it clear that she wasnt busy to the point of being unable to entertain her, and that negotiations are open. In the process, she made sure to give face to Mrs. Shen.
[Ive reserved a room for a beauty treatment at the Beauty and Wellness Center on the 3rd floor of the Dahao Hotel. The room number is 009.] Mrs. Shen replied.
Agreed. Ill see you later, Mrs. Shen.
Wang Haoran was monitoring Tang Bingyun's movements.
He obviously heard their entire conversation.
But he felt that something was off
To be precise, it was from the time when he met Shen Kang and his wife at the hotel.
Shen Kang is an old pervert. More specifically, he was a very rich old pervert, the picture-perfect depiction of a b*****d who deserved to get his face beaten in.
Wang Haoran was certain that hed definitely try something on Tang Bingyun.
Although Mrs. Shen was the one who called Tang Bingyun, he couldnt say for certain that Shen Kang had nothing to do with it.
Wang Haoran thus decided to take a vacation, and which place is better to relax than a hotel?
As for what he planned to do? That didnt matter.
He simply wanted to sleep there.
As a master of time management, he must of course cherish every minute of his life.
Not long after, Wang Haoran arrived at the hotel's Beauty and Wellness Salon.
Most places like this were meant for women, meaning that only a handful of men ever came here. But its not like there were none who did.
Wang Haoran was closer and thus arrived faster.
Room 009 was still empty, meaning that the main cast had yet to arrive.
Well, no one said I had to wait to get started.
After work, Tang Bingyun drove to the Dahao Hotel without even changing out of her work clothes.
She arrived at the salon on the third floor and found the room Mrs. Shen had specified.
The latter sat inside, waiting.
Mrs. Shen, these are high-end jade jewellery, the best that we have to offer. They come in many shapes and sizes, please take a look and see which one you like the most.
Without wasting any time, Tang Bingyun took out a booklet containing photos of the jade jewellery shed brought with her.
However, rather than picking up the album, Mrs. Shen sighed and apologetically said:
Sorry, I lied to you.
The hand holding the album froze as Tang Bingyun felt that something was off about Mrs. Shen
Click!
The sound of a door being locked.
In a state of panic, Tang Bingyun quickly turned around.
Shen Kang had somehow discretely made his entrance, closing the door behind him.
Tang Bingyun suddenly had a rather ominous premonition; however, she forced herself to remain calm:
Haha- I see. Theres no need to apologize as if youve cheated me out of a deal, Mrs. Shen. If youve changed your mind and no longer want to purchase jade, then you dont have to. We are friends, after all.
After pretending to look at the time, she continued:
I still have something to do, so I'll be leaving first. Farewell, Mr. and Mrs. Shen.
Tang Bingyun then slowly prepared to leave.
But Ms. Tang, youve just arrived. Why are you in such a rush to leave?
Shen Kang suddenly laughed. He stood in front of Tang Bingyun, his small eyes so narrow that he could barely see.
Mr. Shen, my assistant is still waiting for me outside. If I don't go out within three minutes, shell be quite anxious. Tang Bingyun said calmly.
Don't make a fool out of yourself, I saw it in the surveillance. You came alone. Shen Kang didnt even bother going along with her lies.
Tang Bingyuns complexion changed slightly, panicking for a bit, before saying:
We are all businessmen of renown in Qingling City. I advise President Shen not to let his impulses get the better of him.
Ah, yes. Thank you for reminding me, Ms. Tang. You see, Ive arranged for several cameras in this room, allowing me to examine your beauty from multiple angles. If you cooperate, then I shall keep these records to myself. If not, then perhaps the thousands of netizens online would appreciate it. Shen Kang sinisterly stated.
It was the first time shed ever been in such a situation.
Tang Bingyun was in a state of complete panic, and she couldnt calm herself no matter how much she tried.
She was powerless. Even if Shen Kang deserved it, how could she move against him?
Mrs. Shen?! Tang Bingyun looked to the other side as if asking for help.
Mrs. Shen sighed and turned her head to the side, apparently intending to stand by.
Tang Bingyun suddenly felt a sense of despair.
But she was a woman who would rather die than suffer this humiliation.
When she looked around, she saw the glass on the table.
Bang!
Tang Bingyun smashed it to pieces, picked up a shard, and pressed it against her throat. Her face carried a look of determination.
Shen Kang was startled.
Theres no way she could be this strong, right?
Neither side dared to make the first move.
[In the next room]
Wang Haoran had seen enough of this play. Using a key to open the room, he made his grand entrance.
Haoran?!
Tang Bingyun was both surprised and delighted.
With me here, no one can touch you.
Wang Haoran walked over, snatched the glass shard from Tang Bingyun's hand and threw it away, comforting her with words full of security.
In this situation, he obviously couldnt tease her by calling her Aunt Tang.
So instead, he lowered his voice to make it sound more calm, more powerful.
Though he spoke only a few words, they had quite an impact.
An endless ocean of emotion poured out from within Tang Bingyuns heart. She felt the same joy and happiness shed felt back during the robbery. Unable to hold herself back, she tightly embraced him,
