Please Rest Assured

"Ask away if you want to. Keeping things bottled up can cause problems," Su Rui said, looking up with a smile.

Li Ruobing was naturally very curious.

No, it wasn't just curiosity; she even felt a bit bewildered.

"How... did you do it?" Li Ruobing asked, looking at Su Rui with a somewhat serious expression. "I'm not joking. A contract signed under duress from a personal threat has no legal effect!"

Yes, Li Ruobing still suspected that Su Rui had used some kind of violent means to force Li Sicheng to comply.

"You underestimate me too much. I've studied the law far more thoroughly than you have," Su Rui smiled. "Using violence or coercion is something only brainless people would do."

"As I said earlier, everyone has unspeakable secrets and weaknesses. No matter how powerful a person is, as long as you find that exact point, one punch is enough to be fatal."

Li Ruobing's gaze was deep. Just as Su Rui said, everyone has secrets and weaknesses, but without a doubt, everyone hides them tightly.

It's easy to defeat someone by exploiting their weakness, but finding that point is difficult.

How did Su Rui know?

"Even if you hit Li Sicheng's weakness and made him sign the contract, what about the others?" Li Ruobing asked. "Are they all under your coercion?"

Su Rui smiled and shook his head.

"Coercion is just the most basic method. Those who can become shareholders of Mingzhu Company are more or less not clean," Su Rui said, wagging his finger. "But there's more than just one way to make someone change their mind."

"A person's personality, habits, hobbies, relationships, and family structure are all areas you can start with."

"For example, a certain shareholder might be reclusive and irritable. Using the same method on him that worked for Li Sicheng might not work, and could even cause a strong backlash, leading him to go down fighting with me! So, I have to change my approach and not make him feel severely threatened."

"Another example is another shareholder who dotes on his son, and coincidentally, his son is a good-for-nothing spendthrift. I can use his son as leverage. If he's willing to sell his shares, I'll sign a contract with him, and permanently give a portion of Mingzhu's annual profits to his son in the future, solving his worries."

"Some people are greedy for profit, some for lust, some are reclusive, and some are slick;"

"I have to use different methods for different people."

Su Rui's expression was casual as he gave examples to Li Ruobing one by one.

But Li Ruobing felt a sense of inexplicable fear. Su Rui's approach was a complete analysis of human nature.

His words sounded simple, but if put into practice, they would be unstoppable. To defeat someone, you don't just need to know their secrets; you need to know everything about their surroundings, their personality, their bottom line, what they fear, and what they care about!

Pressuring someone who is reclusive and irritable will definitely backfire.

Enticing someone greedy for profit with beauty, and someone lustful with profit...

One mistake and it will fail!

And to succeed with this method, it requires an unimaginably complex amount of information!

Li Ruobing had investigated Su Rui's background, that of an ordinary, extremely ordinary small-town citizen. But the more ordinary he seemed, the more startled she became.

Could it be true that he had been reborn billions of times, as he claimed?

Or did he have a layer of mysterious, disguised identity that even she couldn't see through?

If it was the latter, that would be too terrifying...

The Pagani soon stopped at a residential area. Li Ruobing frowned. It seemed none of Mingzhu Company's shareholders lived here.

"This is the house Zhang Xianzhong bought for his mistress," Su Rui explained, opening the car door. "Alright! Wait for me in the car for a while. This time, it might take longer!"

"About twenty minutes!"

Su Rui smiled and picked up the black briefcase again.

"Everyone's situation is very complicated, and you wouldn't understand if you came up. If we have time later, I'll explain it to you slowly."

Su Rui keenly sensed the disappointment in Li Ruobing's eyes.

He chuckled softly.

It seemed this woman was already becoming extremely curious about the abilities he displayed.

This was a good start...

Su Rui's figure disappeared into the residential area.

The car was silent. Li Ruobing narrowed her eyes, took out her phone, and dialed a number.

"Help me investigate this Su Rui. I want all his information from birth, including his friends and family, the more detailed the better."

A confused voice came from the other end of the phone. "President Li, haven't we already investigated?"

"Confirm it again."

After giving the instructions, Li Ruobing hung up the phone and closed her eyes to rest.

Twenty-five minutes later, the car door was pulled open again.

Su Rui smiled and handed Li Ruobing a document identical to the previous one.

"It went over the expected time," Su Rui rubbed his nose, smiling strangely. "I didn't expect Zhang Xianzhong to be playing role-playing games with his mistress so early... They didn't notice me, so I watched for a bit longer."

"Heh... Although that woman's figure isn't great, the uniform she was wearing was quite pretty."

"Disgusting," Li Ruobing said directly, her gaze cold.

"Don't worry... In Tongzhou City, besides you, there's really no other woman who catches my eye," Su Rui said very directly.

Su Rui's likes and dislikes regarding women weren't solely based on appearance; more importantly, Li Ruobing possessed a unique aura.

Like a rose on an iceberg, cold and beautiful, proud and aloof.

Just one glance would make people feel utterly inadequate.

But the more a woman is like this, the greater the unprecedented sense of satisfaction you gain when her body and mind are completely conquered by you!

Li Ruobing's eyes were indifferent, and she sneered, "So, should I feel flattered?"

Heh... saying one thing but meaning another.

Su Rui smiled and didn't continue talking with Li Ruobing; time was pressing, and he needed to head to his next destination.

Over the next hour, Su Rui arrived at five different residential areas or hotels in Tongzhou City, the duration of each stop varying.

Because the people he spoke with were different, and the methods varied, the time spent also differed.

Before he knew it, it was already close to 7:30 PM.

After speaking with the last person, Su Rui stepped out of the teahouse.

The difference was that this time, Su Rui wasn't alone; there was also a couple.

Li Ruobing was startled for a moment but didn't get out of the car.

"Mr. Su, please take care..." The dignified middle-aged man shook hands with Su Rui, a warm smile on his face, his tone even somewhat ingratiating, "I'm truly sorry, I'll trouble you with that matter."

"We're all friends, helping each other is what friends do," Su Rui nodded very politely, then paused and said, "The board meeting..."

"Don't worry!" the middle-aged man said decisively, "I will unconditionally support President Li, and I absolutely won't disappoint you!"
