Chapter 006

With He Wan's exquisite appearance, she has encountered her fair share of lecherous advances over the years. Therefore, when Chen Li initially offered a kind reminder, she instinctively misinterpreted his intentions as an unwelcome flirtation. Relying on this vigilance, she cautiously protected herself time and again, yet this time she truly misjudged a good person.

Hello, my name is He Wan. If it weren't for you today, I really don't know what would have happened; how is your hand?" Seeing Chen Li about to get out of bed, the young woman walked over and pressed him down, still unable to hide her excitement as she said: "I really don't know how to thank you today..."

Chen Li smiled calmly, his delicate features revealing a maturity that belied his age. To divert the conversation from this topic that made He Wan feel awkward, he asked: "Is the child alright?"

For most people, giving money is the most straightforward way to express gratitude and appreciation, but for some, using money can seem too abrupt

"Sister He Wan, what is wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Chen Li, noticing He Wan's heavy expression, thought she might have been startled or was still in pain from twisting her ankle during lunch, and asked her.

Although Chen Li was fortunate not to have injured any bones, He Wan had just struck the freshly stitched wound, causing her to gasp in pain, with beads of sweat forming on her forehead.

The Impression Advertising had not previously collaborated with Jinyuan International, and hastily submitting the bid resulted in it being swiftly rejected. Currently, there seems to be no hope of securing this contract.

He Wan could not help but feel curious upon hearing Zhou Bin mention that the chairman of Jinyuan International had just been here

He Wan took a business card out of her bag and politely handed it to Chen Li and Zhou Bin for their perusal, inadvertently exuding a touch of professional competence in her every gesture.

At this moment, she suddenly thought of the fat man who had driven Chen Li to the hospital in a Mercedes-Benz, who was none other than Qian Wanli, the owner of Jinyuan International

Hearing Chen Li's teasing tone, He Wan felt a bit embarrassed

Today, while driving past Zhongyuan University, she intended to buy some fast food by the roadside, but little did she know that a carjacker had found the opportunity to strike

Chen Li observed that He Wan was so troubled that she could not even speak, appearing restless and uneasy, making it easy to guess the reason behind it

Chen Li insisted on sending off Qian Wanli's driver as well. Zhao Yang, seeing that there was nothing more to do here, decided to return to the internet café to keep an eye on things.

He indeed wanted to leave his contact information. Zhou Bin said while yawning: "But it also depends on whether Chen Li is willing to let him stay!"

Chen Li stuffed the business card under the pillow and said with a smile, "You go home and tell your old man to retire and go fishing, then you can directly become the head of the company, right? At that time, you can bring us brothers back, and each of us can be a vice president, and that would be enough. Why should we go through all that trouble to start a company?"

Your sense of justice is swelling today, your inner self is satisfied, you have seized the opportunity to vent your violence without having to bear any responsibility. It must be said that it was you who gave Sister He Wan the change for her car window repair!

As soon as the BMW lady entered, Zhou Bin was left dumbfounded, staring for quite a while, and he still had not come to his senses.

He Wan is still not very clear about the relationship between Chen Li, Zhou Bin, and Zhao Yang, but she finds their conversation relaxed and casual. It is rare for them to act with righteousness at critical moments, and she has a good impression of them, smiling as she sits down to listen to their conversation

The sudden terror from that incident seemed to linger, and although the young woman had applied a simple makeup to her delicate features, it could not conceal her pallor. Her eyes were filled with a lingering fear of uncertainty, and before Chen Li, she exhibited both embarrassment and a semblance of resilient strength.

He Wan originally had a deep impression of the young man who had easily broken the arms and legs of the trafficker with a steel rod, yet she did not know how to deal with his playful smile.

Seeing Chen Li's face freeze in surprise, He Wan quickly added, "I truly mean no other intention, just consider it as medical expenses. You saved Bao'er, and it is impossible for you to bear the medical costs yourself. You must accept it; otherwise, I really wouldn't know what to do."

The middle-aged man who drove you to the hospital must be Qian Wanli, the president of Jinyuan. Did he leave any contact information?

"As long as there is no longer any misunderstanding that I am a little rogue..." Chen Li smiled faintly and invited He Wan to sit down as she spoke

The impression advertisements under He Wan are no exception

He Wan could not help but let out a sigh of relief, and in that moment, she seemed to become a bit lighter, her smile less constrained. A beautiful woman always brings joy to men, especially someone as graceful as He Wan.

Zhou Bin, like Chen Li, is a hands-off manager. No matter where he stays, he is just staying put, so remaining in the hospital provides some support in case anything happens

It is merely a scrape; resting for a few days will suffice. You need not worry; as long as the child is fine, that is what matters. Chen Li gently lifted his arm; although there was a slight pain accompanied by some post-injury fatigue, it did not hinder his ability to move.

Zhou Bin, watching He Wan beside him, was also captivated. With a playful smile, he leaned over and said: "Sister, I also put in a lot of effort today. You can't just thank that kid Chen Li and not thank me!"

"It's nothing, I've already been sent home. Is your arm injury serious...?" He Wan asked with concern as she looked at Chen Li's arm tightly wrapped in bandages.

I swear, you really are ruthless. If I were to show any intention of usurping power in front of the old man, he could strangle me on the spot. Besides, the two mines the old man is guarding are also nearing their end; they probably won't last much longer. " Zhou Bin rolled his eyes and made a gesture of choking his neck. Coming from a wealthy background, he spoke candidly and somewhat criticized He Wan's act of handing out business cards as pretentious. He laughed and said, "However, if you are not willing to start a company, we can just go with the flow; a few bucks don't really matter. Moreover, nowadays, if you throw out ten bricks, you can hit seven or eight general managers, which isn't anything special."

Chen Li did not want to accept He Wan's money, but he was also afraid of the determination reflected in He Wan's eyes. It felt too awkward to keep arguing in the hospital room, so he smiled and said, "Alright then, I will accept it for now. When I am discharged, I will settle the medical expenses, and I will return any excess money to you."

The general manager of Impression Advertising Design Company, Zhou Bin, leaned over and pronounced He Wan's title printed on the business card clearly and deliberately. He joked with Chen Li, saying, "Just now, we had the chairman of Jinyuan International passing by, and now we have the general manager of Impression Advertising. Chen Li, shouldn't we, the few of us, quickly set up a company too? Otherwise, I would feel embarrassed to print business cards."

The company used to thrive, but since she took over, the business has been declining steadily, with even the old clients having nearly all been lost. It is now barely sustained by a few scattered small orders, and this so-called general manager of hers is likely to last only a few more days.

It may be due to excessive blood loss. After a tiring afternoon, Chen Li felt somewhat drowsy and wanted to take a nap by the bed. He also considered sending Zhou Bin to further inquire about the details of Jinyuan International when he heard Zhao Yang, who had just left a short while ago, talking to someone outside.

What does Sister He Wan do for a living? Chen Li noticed that He Wan's mood had relaxed, and he began to climb up the pole, as if he was determined to acknowledge this "sister" today. The fact that He Wan could drive a brand new BMW onto Jiang Xiu Street suggests that she should not be an ordinary person

Chen Lin is able to stay in such a high-ranking hospital room that ordinary people cannot afford, which naturally indicates that he is not an ordinary person. He Wan initially intended to directly give money to express her gratitude, but now she is worried that it might be too abrupt

She almost lost her daughter. He Wan, still shaken and not yet composed, did not know how to face Chen Li, this unfamiliar benefactor. After much contemplation, she felt that it would be better to directly give him money.

Although Zhou Bin's family wealth is still a bit short of becoming a millionaire, he, having grown up in a privileged environment, does not particularly care about the status of Qian Wanli. Moreover, Chen Li had long told him that the current situation at Jinyuan International is not good, and Qian Wanli, this billionaire, is ultimately just a hollow figure who could collapse at any moment

Zhou Bin's words were mere nonsense, yet they struck at He Wan's sore spot

Chen Li and Zhou Bin did not leave their names at the police station, but He Wan vaguely heard Zhang Haoran telling the driver to take Chen Li to the Municipal People's Hospital at the scene of the incident. After settling her daughter, she withdrew money and deposited it into a bank card on her own, then hurried to the Municipal First People's Hospital, where she had a hard time finding out where Chen Li was hospitalized.

Jinyuan International is not one of the larger real estate companies in the business city, but the recently developed Ginkgo Flower Garden within the planning area of the university town has become a coveted asset in the eyes of many advertising companies in the business city

He Wan hesitated for quite a while before gently placing the bank card she had held tightly in her hand on Chen Li's bedside, saying: "There is 50,000 yuan in this card, and the password is six zeros. It is truly not a large sum, I only hope you can accept it"

He Wan then sat down next to the sickbed

Seeing Chen Li grimace in pain, He Wan realized her abruptness and quickly released her grip on Chen Li. For a moment, she wanted to apologize, but found herself at a loss for words.

Chen Li did not know who had intercepted Zhao Yang again, and then he saw Zhao Yang pushing the door open with two bags in hand, followed by a person, who was none other than the BMW lady whose child had almost been snatched away.

He Wan did not know Qian Wanli at all, yet she was eager to establish a connection with him, which was quite evident: Qian Wanli was involved in real estate development, while He Wan ran an advertising company. Real estate marketing inevitably requires extensive advertising— in a commercial city, for any advertising company, the advertising order from Jinyuan International represents a significant business opportunity— inadvertently allowing a financial backer to slip away was understandably a cause for concern for He Wan, which was perfectly normal.
