Su Xiqin had seen all sorts of people, but this man's deep gaze was like a deep ocean vortex that drew people in. Especially when his deep gaze turned in her direction, she felt a sense of fear and respect that she never felt before from anyone. However, she could only force herself to stare back at him in this situation.
The man paused his steps and looked at Su Xiqin for a while before he looked back to talk to Shao Zhengyang. Su Xiqin didn't hear what they said. A few seconds later, Shao Zhengyang walked in her direction while the man headed towards the door.
Shao Zhengyang emanated a lawyer's demeanor as he said to her with a serious expression, "Miss, due to the accident you have caused running a red light, my client's vehicle has been damaged…"
"I'll be responsible for all the repair costs." Su Xiqin cut off Shao Zhengyang's words quickly. She knew that the lawyer's job was to get their client compensated, and they would not spare her if she disagreed. She didn't have the time to argue with him, and it was indeed her fault for the accident.
Shao Zhengyang's mouth was half open, and he froze for a few seconds before he pushed up his glasses out of awkwardness. He then saw Su Xiqin reach her hand into her purse and pull out a business card, which she passed to him.
"Call the number on this card once the car's fixed." Su Xiqin's tone was indifferent.
Shao Zhengyang had never been so decisively cut off by a woman, and he didn't know whether he should reach to get the business card or not. His brows furrowed, and he stared at Su Xiqin's pale oval face.
…
A Range Rover was parked in the Police Station parking lot, and Shao Zhengyang had a white business card in his hand as he walked towards the vehicle. He stopped at the passenger's side as he opened the door and lowered his head to get in, and the Range Rover then slowly drove away from the Police Station.
He took a deep breath and turned around to look at the man resting at the back with his eyes closed.
"There are all sorts of people these days!"
"As always, you like to keep people hanging by the cliff." The voice was deep and pleasant to hear, but there was also a sense of sharpness to it.
Shao Zhengyang pushed his glasses as he smirked mischievously and said, "Hey Fourth Master Bai, I haven't had a break since you came back. I just wanted to have some fun, and you wouldn't let me. That's just boring."
The man he was speaking to was Bai Yansen, who had just returned to S City. This man was a part of the third-generation of a family with a powerful political background, and he was a legend in the business world and the founder of the Zhuosheng Corporation.
Bai Yansen still had his eyes closed as he said indifferently, "Give it to her as long as the price is reasonable. If she pushes it, then don't give even a cent."
"Wow. You and that girl are…" Shao Zhengyang said while glancing at the business card in his hand with his head lowered. "You and Su Xiqin; you two are really a perfect match."
Maybe it was his words or Su Xiqin's name that piqued Bai Yansen's interest, but he finally opened his eyes and gave Shao Zhengyang a sharp gaze. Shao Zhengyang immediately got the message and explained, "She didn't ask for any compensation. Instead, she said that she will be fully responsible for the repair and just call her once the price's confirmed."
He then passed over the business card.
Bai Yansen paused a few seconds before reaching out to grab the business card. He read it over and saw Su Xiqin's title as the Mo Corporation's Jewelry Designer.
His thick brows pinched together a bit, and that didn't escape Shao Zhengyang's eyes as he said, "This Su Xiqin's probably the same Su Xiqin who's been rising in the jewelry industry recently."
Bai Yansen pressed his lips together and appeared serious as he pondered. After a while, he said in a low voice, "If she wants to take responsibility, then let her be!"
Shao Zhengyang widened his eyes in disbelief at first, but he soon relaxed. He knew Bai Yansen was in fact a wolf in sheep's clothing in the business world.
Su Xiqin finally arrived at the Zhuosheng Corporation half an hour later, and Zhang Jing told her with a bitter expression that the representative was busy.
