The sudden appearance of Wu Yuqing shattered the atmosphere at the scene.
She looked at the security guards and bodyguards lying on the ground, unable to hide her surprise.
"What is going on here?"
Cao Rui adjusted his expression, immediately fawning over her like a sycophant.
"Yuqing, why are you here?"
"Cao Rui? Is this your company?"
Although Wu Yuqing knew that Cao Rui had started a company, she had never visited it before.
"What exactly does your company do? Why are there so many people lying on the floor?"
"I'm very sorry to have you see such a scene. It's all due to my poor management that something like this happened."
Cao Rui cast a cold, sinister glance at Lin Fei, yet he could do nothing about him; he was losing face in front of Wu Yuqing once again.
"Lin Fei, for Yuqing's sake, let's call it a day. I won't hold you responsible for what happened."
Wu Yuqing's small face was full of curiosity as she pressed for an answer.
"Lin Fei, what did you do? Why does Cao Rui want to hold you responsible?"
Lin Fei smiled. "I reported a company parasite who was taking kickbacks from clients, harassing female colleagues, and falsifying invoices. Young Master Cao didn't quite believe me, so a bit of a misunderstanding occurred."
"There's such scum here?"
Wu Yuqing looked at Cao Rui with an expression of utter disgust.
"If such scum appeared in our family's company, I would kick them out immediately. Cao Rui, if you keep such trash in your company, I'm afraid it's going to go under!"
Cao Rui offered an awkward smile and turned to glare furiously at Zhu Dacheng.
"Zhu Dacheng, from this moment on, you are suspended pending an investigation. If you really did these things, I will certainly not spare you."
Zhu Dacheng's face turned deathly pale; he knew he couldn't escape this time.
Cao Rui then said fawningly, "Yuqing, since you're already at my company, why don't you come to my office and sit for a while?"
"No thanks, I still have things to do with Lin Fei."
Wu Yuqing stepped forward, grabbed one of Lin Fei's arms, and pulled him toward the exit.
"Are you done with your business? It's time to go with me."
Xu Youle watched Lin Fei's retreating back with a look of envy.
That kid Lin Fei sure has great luck with women!
As Wu Yuqing's figure disappeared, Cao Rui's face turned livid.
Today, not only had he failed to regain his dignity, but he had also lost all face in front of so many employees, all because of this damn Zhu Dacheng.
Zhu Dacheng tried to plead with Cao Rui, but before he could even open his mouth, Cao Rui slapped him across the face, kicked him to the ground, and proceeded to stomp on him repeatedly.
Zhu Dacheng screamed in agony, wailing incessantly.
"Ah... Young Master Cao, stop hitting me..."
"It hurts so much, Young Master Cao, I know I was wrong!"
Linjiang Immortal Villa Complex.
Wu Yuqing drove Lin Fei here and parked in front of a villa.
"Get out of the car!"
"Why did you bring me here?"
"This villa is the gift my father wanted to give you!"
"Huh?"
Lin Fei was somewhat startled. He had guessed that the gift from Wu Zhen might be valuable, but he hadn't expected it to be this "valuable."
Giving away an entire villa just like that!
"Yuqing, this gift is too expensive. I can't accept it."
Wu Yuqing smiled, grabbed Lin Fei, and walked into the villa, introducing it as they went.
"This villa has three floors above ground and one basement level. Each floor is over five hundred square meters, totaling more than two thousand square meters."
"There is a lawn in front of the villa, a garden in the back, an open-air swimming pool on the top floor, and a garage in the basement."
"It's already fully furnished with all appliances, so you can move in whenever you like. If you don't like the decor, you can always renovate it yourself."
Lin Fei toured the entire villa with Wu Yuqing and found that while the decor was luxurious and grand, the layout was warm and comfortable.
"I noticed the surrounding villas don't seem to be renovated yet. How come this one is already finished?"
"Hehe, you've got a sharp eye!"
Wu Yuqing sat on the sofa and crossed her slender, beautiful legs.
"This villa was actually intended as a birthday gift from my father, so he had it renovated long ago; the renovation costs alone exceeded five million."
Lin Fei was secretly shocked.
That renovation cost was enough to buy a two-hundred-square-meter luxury apartment in the city center.
The value of this villa was likely ten times the cost of the renovation.
"If it's your birthday gift, then I definitely cannot accept it."
Wu Yuqing waved her hand, her expression entirely indifferent.
"Oh, since I've given it to you, just take it. It's not like I'm giving it away for nothing."
"My dad said this villa is worth over fifty million, and when you add the renovation costs, it's exactly equivalent to the value of three Small Foundation Pills."
"Ever since I turned eighteen, my dad has given me a villa for every birthday. I already have several, and I can't even live in all of them."
Lin Fei couldn't help but feel a sense of lament.
The birthday gifts of the wealthy were truly "unremarkable."
When he was a child, he didn't even have a birthday cake.
But back in his old village home, his mother would always make him a meal of dumplings, and Lin Fei had been satisfied with that.
"Since that's the case, then I won't stand on ceremony."
"Even though my dad gave this villa to you, he gave me another one instead—the one right next door. Hehe, that one is even bigger!"
Wu Yuqing smiled smugly, so smugly that Lin Fei couldn't help but want to punch her.
"We can be neighbors from now on; maybe I'll come over to visit often."
"Alright, I have an appointment with my girlfriends for a spa day, so I'm off. You can handle the moving yourself."
After Wu Yuqing left, Lin Fei sat on the sofa, looking at the luxurious and grand villa, and couldn't help but let a smile touch his lips.
Moving from a rented room straight into a grand villa, he could finally say he was reaching the pinnacle of his life.
"Now that I have money, I should invest in more properties. In a few days, I'll bring my parents over so they can enjoy a life of ease."
Before leaving, Lin Fei reset the password for the villa's main gate.
The villa's main gate and front door were all equipped with smart locks; there was no need for keys, as one could enter simply by remembering a password or using facial recognition.
"Lin Fei, why are you here?"
Suddenly, a voice of surprise rang out from behind him.
Lin Fei turned around and saw Ma Weiwei.
Ma Weiwei was dressed in a professional suit, wearing a black slim-fit blazer on top and a black short skirt on the bottom, revealing a pair of beautiful legs wrapped in black silk stockings.
This workplace attire of hers had once left Lin Fei mesmerized.
Standing beside Ma Weiwei was a middle-aged man.
"Weiwei, who is this?"
The middle-aged man wore a suit, an emerald ring on the index finger of his right hand, a gold Rolex on his left wrist, and carried an LV handbag tucked under his arm.
Even the belt visible at his waist was Hermes.
From head to toe, he was covered in luxury goods, looking like a walking display rack for high-end brands.
Ma Weiwei quickly replied with a smile, "President Zhang, this is a former classmate of mine named Lin Fei."
The middle-aged man looked curious.
"Your classmate?"
"To be able to afford a villa here, he must be a young talent or come from a very prominent background, right?"
