"Ah..."
After hanging up the phone, Han Yu let out a heavy sigh.
He didn't know why Lin Qingya suddenly wanted to marry him, and he didn't want to know.
Given his current health condition, whether he could last another two weeks was a question.
He had already hurt Lin Qingya once; he couldn't hurt her again.
Ding-a-ling!
Suddenly, his mobile phone in his pocket rang again.
When he picked it up, it was surprisingly a call from Li Zhipan, the manager of the food delivery company.
As soon as the call connected, the other side erupted with roars, "Han Yu! What the hell are you doing? From last night until now, more than twenty complaints!!! Fucking hell, where's the food you were supposed to deliver!"
"If you fucking don't want to work, then get the hell out!"
Li Zhipan was furious. Since last night, he had received more than twenty complaints about Han Yu.
He had never liked Han Yu, who was better-looking than himself and had a pretty girlfriend, and who had previously talked back to him over work.
He usually had no opportunity to meddle with Han Yu, but now that he'd caught a chance, Li Zhipan naturally wouldn't let it go.
"You're right, I really don't want to work anymore."
Faced with Li Zhipan's wrath, Han Yu seemed very indifferent and hung up right after speaking.
Previously, to make a good life for himself in Jinling City, he had to swallow his pride, but now, with only a few days left to live, why would he fear offending a food delivery company manager?
...
Wenlan Road, Hungry for a Bite food delivery company.
Li Zhipan was stomping around in the lobby at that moment, fuming, "I'm so pissed! I'm so pissed!"
"Motherfucking hell, good for you Han Yu, daring to talk back to me!"
"If I don't dock your wages for this month, my last name isn't Li!"
The other employees in the lobby all shrank their heads, not uttering a word, afraid to be caught in any blowback.
Just then, a portly middle-aged man in a suit, his face flushed with health, walked in.
The arrival was none other than the company's boss, Liu Feng.
Upon seeing Liu Feng, Li Zhipan immediately put on a smile, "Hey, Director Liu! What brings you here?"
"If you'd told me you were coming, I would have had the staff ready to welcome you..."
Director Liu glanced at him and said flatly, "Cut the nonsense, hurry up and clean up. The new boss is about to arrive!"
"New boss?"
Everyone was startled, and Li Zhipan was especially confused, "What do you mean? Director Liu, you sold the company?"
"Of course! Someone offered five million for this station. Wouldn't you sell it if you were me?"
Director Liu said with disdain.
Five million?
Someone spent five million on such a run-down station?
The new boss must be either an idiot or someone with money to burn!
Obviously, the latter was more likely.
If they could get in good with the new boss, wouldn't their salaries double?
In hopes of making a good impression on the new boss, Li Zhipan immediately perked up and started shouting orders at his subordinates, "Are you all deaf? Didn't you hear that the new boss is almost here?"
"Get moving, everyone! The windows, the tiles, clean them all!"
"Anyone who dares to slack off can get lost, just like Han Yu!"
To ensure a thorough cleaning, Li Zhipan even used Han Yu as a negative example.
"Ptui! Damn it! What a bunch of crap!"
"Making us work while he just stands around giving orders!"
A few employees grumbled quietly, heads down, clearly displeased.
They had no respect for Li Zhipan at all, a manager with a bad temper and no real skills, who only knew how to brown-nose.
Yet, for the sake of making a living, they could only swallow their pride and get busy.
Ten minutes later...
A black jade colored Porsche Panamera slowly pulled up on the street.
Sitting inside was none other than the Iceberg Female CEO of Lin Corporation, Lin Qingya.
After being rejected by Han Yu, she spared no expense from her personal savings to purchase the Wenlan Road takeout company in record time, even coming over in person.
Seeing the Porsche, Liu Feng immediately straightened his clothes; he knew that the phone caller, the buyer of the company, had arrived!
Li Zhipan also adjusted his hair, preparing to greet the new boss.
"Creak!"
At that moment, Han Yu also arrived at the entrance of the takeout company riding a small electric scooter.
"Han Yu? What the hell are you doing back here! You've been fired!"
Seeing Han Yu, Li Zhipan's anger flared up, "Get out! Get out of here now!"
"Li, watch your tone when you talk to me!"
Han Yu furrowed his brows and retorted, "I might have left the job, but I've left something behind, and I haven't gotten my pay for this month either..."
"You still want your pay?"
Li Zhipan was furious, but since the new boss was coming, he wanted to make a good impression, otherwise he would have slapped Han Yu already.
"Manager Li, handle this matter well, and get him out of here quickly!"
Liu Feng glanced at Han Yu, then shooed him away with a gesture, signaling Li Zhipan to deal with it quickly.
He himself scampered eagerly towards the Porsche.
"Sure thing!"
Li Zhipan replied obsequiously, then turned around and said to Han Yu impatiently, "For Director Liu's sake, I'll give you five hundred. Come and get it tomorrow. Now! Just scram!"
...
The Porsche's door opened, and the Iceberg Female CEO Lin Qingya, dressed in a black suit and light makeup, along with her assistant Yan, stepped out of the car.
At the sight of Lin Qingya's face, Liu Feng's eyes went wide.
He could never have imagined that the owner who bought their takeout spot would be Lin Corporation's famous beauty—Lin Qingya of Jinling City!
"President Lin, hello!"
"Where's Han Yu?"
Lin Qingya didn't spare a glance at Liu Feng; her first question after stepping out of the car was about Han Yu.
"Han Yu?"
Liu Feng was taken aback at the mention of the name, which sounded familiar.
Wait a minute!
Wasn't Han Yu the employee Li Zhipan was ranting about firing just now?
At this realization, Liu Feng instantly broke out in cold sweat.
"President Lin, he's over there!"
Yan Li, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, surveyed the vicinity and immediately recognized a man in a shirt at the gate—it was Han Yu, the one in the files!
Following the direction indicated by Yan Li, Lin Qingya looked over.
Indeed!
It really was him!
Even if he turned to ashes, she would recognize him!
Thump!
Thump!
Thump!
Lin Qingya immediately walked swiftly towards him in her high heels, followed closely by her assistant Yan, with Liu Feng hurriedly tagging along.
At the entrance of the takeout point.
Han Yu brushed past Li Zhipan's arm forcefully, intending to push his way in.
The paltry sum of five hundred for all the exhausting deliveries he had done was not enough!
Furthermore, he had personal items inside.
Li Zhipan, with his back to the Porsche, unaware that the new boss had arrived swiftly, was furious to see Han Yu trying to barge into the company, "Han Yu! Don't you dare show such disrespect!"
"Leave now and you'll have five hundred. If you don't, just wait and see how I deal with you!"
Just then, a chilling voice came from behind Li Zhipan.
"Who gave you the audacity to bully my fiancé Lin Qingya!"
