Zheng Pengfei had passed out, but how could the matter end just like that? Fang Yi still had many tricks up his sleeve.
Fang Yi switched on the lights in the finance room, then splashed water on Zheng Pengfei to wake him up.
When Zheng Pengfei opened his eyes and saw Fang Yi clearly, he became furiously angry and instantly tried to get up from the ground, but Fang Yi pinned him down with a four-legged chair.
No matter how loudly Zheng Pengfei yelled, Fang Yi remained unmoved.
"Let me go! You jerk!"
"Fang Yi, I’ll never let this go!"
Filthy words burst from Zheng Pengfei’s mouth one after another, but Fang Yi turned a deaf ear to them.
It was not until Zheng Pengfei was panting that Fang Yi, with a smile on his face, said, "Tired of cursing, eh?"
"Cough, cough... Puh!"
Zheng Pengfei spat out blood. It was unclear whether it was due to anger or from Fang Yi hitting him earlier, but judging by his appearance, it was likely from anger.
"Spitting blood from cursing, Zheng Pengfei, I must admit, I’m impressed," Fang Yi said mockingly.
Zheng Pengfei glared bitterly at Fang Yi, but seeing that Fang Yi remained indifferent, Zheng Pengfei decided to change his approach and said in a low, submissive voice, "Fang Yi, what... exactly... do you want!"
Fang Yi chuckled and replied, "You’re asking me? It should be me asking you. Coming to the finance room in the dead of night, and accessing the financial manager’s computer, you must have ulterior motives."
Zheng Pengfei’s face turned from blue to purple, then he flushed red and said, "I... I just came to download some data."
Fang Yi, smiling, said, "I’ve read a lot of books; you can’t fool me."
"Fang Yi, let me go. We had some disputes before, yes, I know. I apologize to you. As the saying goes, rely on your parents at home and your friends abroad. Let’s reconcile," Zheng Pengfei tried to manipulate Fang Yi.
Fang Yi said, "But there’s a saying that goes, you used to ignore me, and now you can’t aspire to reach me. Manager Zheng, tell me, what exactly did you come here to do?" There was clearly no intention of reconciling.
Zheng Pengfei was provoked again and yelled, "Fang Yi, don’t refuse the wine only to be forced to drink a penalty!"
"Who is Mr. Zhou?" Fang Yi suddenly asked.
Zheng Pengfei was taken aback, then his eyes widened in horror as he looked at Fang Yi, "I... I don’t know!"
Fang Yi sneered, "You don’t know? But I do. It was Mr. Zhou who told you to copy the company’s financial statements, wasn’t it? In fact, I overheard your conversation with Mr. Zhou in the restroom that day."
In an instant, Zheng Pengfei felt a chill down his spine and looked at Fang Yi in utter panic.
"How... how could you... possibly...?" Zheng Pengfei’s teeth chattered, and the corners of his mouth trembled.
Zheng Pengfei remembered that day in the restroom. Had he known, he would have checked all the doors for any oversight; such a careless mistake, truly a slip that will be regretted forever!
Zheng Pengfei resented deeply, how could he have fallen into the opponent’s hands!
"If you don’t want others to know, don’t do it yourself," Fang Yi said calmly, looking at him.
"What if I don’t tell?" Suddenly, a resolute expression appeared on Zheng Pengfei’s face. He wanted to stubbornly refuse to speak, not believing that Fang Yi could really do anything to him.
"I won’t do anything to you, but I can send you to jail to have prison meals," a cold voice rang out.
Zheng Pengfei suddenly startled, "Shen... Shen Binan?!"
Shen Binan appeared, looking down from above at Zheng Pengfei, who was pinned down by the chair, and said, "Zheng Pengfei, who is Mr. Zhou?"
Zheng Pengfei clenched his teeth and said, "I won’t tell." He wanted to hold out to the end.
Shen Binan said, "If you tell, I can choose not to sue you, but if you don’t, don’t blame me for being ruthless."
Uncertainty was evident in Zheng Pengfei’s eyes.
"A gentleman’s word, a horse that is hard to chase."
Zheng Pengfei said, "Actually, I do not know who Mr. Zhou is. He proactively came looking for me with Big Sculpture’s token."
"Who is Big Sculpture?" Fang Yi asked.
"The boss of the underground casino in Rong CB district."
"Mr. Zhou is very mysterious. He asked me to address him like that. However, I know his contact information, his phone number is in my mobile, and I can call him as soon as I succeeded. That’s all I know, I really do not know anything more."
Having said that, Zheng Pengfei looked eagerly at Shen Binnan.
But Shen Binnan asked Fang Yi with her eyes.
"It seems this Mr. Zhou is quite mysterious," Fang Yi stroked his chin, a contemplative look in his eyes.
"President Shen, I... I’ve confessed, can’t you..." Zheng Pengfei didn’t care about these things; he was only concerned about whether Shen Binnan would keep her promise.
"Zheng Pengfei, wait for the court’s subpoena," Shen Binnan said, then walked towards the finance office door.
Zheng Pengfei furiously yelled, "Shen Binnan, you’re not keeping your word! You cheap woman..."
Actually, even Fang Yi was surprised that Shen Binnan would go back on her word.
Very soon, Ma Haigang arrived with two security guards. Fang Yi handed Zheng Pengfei over to him and then went after Shen Binnan.
By now it was late at night. Fang Yi got into his car and started the engine.
"Who would have thought, you actually go back on your word," Fang Yi murmured as he drove.
"For someone who wants to destroy my company, I don’t need to be honest with him," Shen Binnan said unashamedly, "Besides, I only mentioned ’a gentleman’s word,’ I am not a gentleman, just a little woman."
Fang Yi thought, he would have reacted the same way if he were Shen Binnan, letting someone who dared touch his belongings eat bullets if he had a gun. Yet, something about that didn’t sit right with him.
Just then, Shen Binnan’s phone suddenly chimed a notification. She pulled out her phone, a strange look on her face.
"What’s wrong?" Fang Yi glanced in the rear-view mirror and noticed her unusual expression.
Shen Binnan put away her phone and said, "Nothing, just a scam message."
"Really?" Fang Yi was skeptical.
Suddenly, Fang Yi’s phone vibrated, receiving a message.
"Focus on driving, no looking at your phone!" Shen Binnan scolded in a sweet voice.
"It seems... we received the same scam message? What a coincidence," Fang Yi said in a peculiar tone.
Shen Binnan stretched out her hand and said, "Give me your phone, I’ll delete it for you."
Fang Yi shook his head like a rattle and said, "No, I want to see who dares to send scam messages to you. I’ll call them later and give them hell."
At that moment, they arrived at Shen Binnan’s house.
After getting out of the car, Fang Yi was about to get on his bicycle to leave, but Shen Binnan stopped him.
"Do you have time tomorrow evening?"
"I do," Fang Yi replied. "Are you asking me out on a date?"
"Yes, I want to watch the stars and the moon with you."
Fang Yi eagerly rubbed his hands together, "You’re not tricking me, are you?"
Shen Binnan said, "There’s a condition, you have to give me your phone."
Definitely suspicious!
"It’s getting late; I should go wash up and sleep. Bye," Fang Yi hopped on his bicycle and sped away, leaving Shen Binnan stomping her foot in frustration.
On the road, Fang Yi took out his phone to check the ’scam message.’
After seeing it, Fang Yi cursed, "What kind of scam message is this?"
