Joey looked over following the sound and saw Zhou Gao walking towards him in a dark blue haute couture suit.
He walked over to Joy, took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders.
The voice was gentle and caring: "It's too cold here, don't catch a cold."
Joey's eyes fell unexpectedly into his deep eyes.
The eyes were dark and bottomless.
Like a dark pool.
She couldn't even see clearly the emotions rolling inside.
Just like she looked at Lu Wenzhou back then.
The same feeling happened to different people, which made Joey feel suspicious in his heart.
She nodded politely: "Thank you, Mr. Zhou."
Zhou Gao curled his lips slightly and looked at Fu Jingran: "I think what Lawyer Qiao said is right. Mr. Fu, as the adopted son of the Fu family, has always dominated the Fu Group and is still laughing at the same time. Don't you think it's funny?
In the past, you said that Fu Ying was sick and Fu Huai'an was young. Now that he is almost thirty years old and in charge of the Lu Group, is it time for Mr. Fu to give up his position? "
Fu Jingran's face was extremely ugly, "This is our family matter, it's not the turn of outsiders to interfere."
"Then it's your turn to worry about Lawyer Qiao's marriage? Has Mr. Fu always had such double standards?"
Zhou Jiu's words were neither fast nor slow, but they were very aggressive.
Fu Jingran, who had always been calm, gripped the armrest of the wheelchair fiercely.
He sneered and said: "No one has seen Mr. Zhou's true face for so many years, why did he suddenly appear?"
Zhou Jiao looked at Joey with his deep eyes: "Hunters naturally wait until their prey appears before they move out."
"So, Lawyer Qiao is your prey?"
"Yes, I fell in love with Lawyer Qiao at first sight and am pursuing her."
Fu Jingran said very firmly: "She will not agree to you."
Zhou Ji smiled lightly: "I will ask her to agree. Mr. Fu can look forward to it and the progress of the wind power project in your new city."
Hearing this, Fu Jingran's eyes darkened: "What do you mean by that?"
"Literally, you should get the news in a minute."
Sure enough, a few minutes later, Fu Jingran's cell phone rang.
An urgent voice came from the opposite side: "Mr. Fu, something happened to the Xinshi wind power project. Six of the ten wind towers collapsed, and a few remaining fan blades fell. The relevant departments have intervened in the investigation. I am afraid that our group's losses this time will be huge." It’s huge.”
Hearing the news, Fu Jingran looked at Zhou Gao: "What the hell did you do?"
Zhou Gao spread his hands: "It was your procurement department that accepted bribes and used products of insufficient quality, which led to the collapse of the project. What does this have to do with me?"
Fu Jingran looked at his proud look and gritted his teeth: "If I find out that this matter is related to you, I will never let you go."
After saying that, he immediately controlled the wheelchair and left.
The market value of this project is tens of billions. It has just started to be installed. If something goes wrong, all subsequent orders will be cancelled, and the relevant departments will be fined for breach of contract.
It will also affect other projects that follow.
Watching his leaving figure, Zhou Qian's lips curved into a nice curve.
Those deep eyes looked towards Joey: "Lawyer Qiao, I saved you, how should you repay me?"
He spoke very straightforwardly and looked at Joey with an ambiguous look.
This makes Joey feel dangerous.
She felt that Zhou Gao would never help her for no reason.
She slightly curved her lips: "I can give Mr. Zhou a discount on his case."
Zhou Gao chuckled: "Do you think I am someone who is short of money?"
"Then how do you want me to repay you? Just tell me."
"Be my girlfriend."
Joey chuckled: "Mr. Zhou, this is our second meeting. Don't you think it's very abrupt?"
"Isn't Lawyer Qiao also very interested in me? Otherwise, he wouldn't have sent someone to investigate my details."
As he spoke, he bent down, his eyes level with Joey.
He looked directly at her without any cover-up.
Just like a vicious wolf staring at its prey, every look seems to say, I want to eat you.
Joey instinctively ducked back, "I do this to every client involved. I will only accept the case if the truth of my investigation is consistent with what you said."
"Is that so? I thought Lawyer Qiao fell in love with me at first sight, but don't you think you need a boyfriend? Otherwise, there will always be people saying that you can't forget your ex-husband, which will affect your future plans, and I am your best choice. .”
Facing Zhou Gao, Joey always felt like he was being seen through.
He seemed to be able to read her thoughts.
Joey felt that this man was too scary and dangerous.
She curled her lips indifferently: "Thank you Mr. Zhou for today's business. I will treat you to dinner another day. I have something else to do, so I will leave first."
After saying that, she returned the coat to Zhou Gao and pulled Bai Shisi out of the banquet hall.
Looking at her hurried back, Zhou Qian's lips curved slightly.
He took out his cell phone and sent a message.
[Send two people to protect Joey 24 hours a day. ]
Joey got into the car, still feeling a little flustered.
She has met all kinds of people in the past two years, but there has never been anyone who can make her almost lose her composure.
Why does this feeling always remind her of the time when she was with Lu Wenzhou?
Bai Shisi started the car, glanced at her pale face and asked, "Sister Yiyi, how are you?"
Joey looked at him with clear eyes: "Do you think Zhou Guo looks like your brother?"
Bai Shisi frowned: "Are you suffering from delusion? He and my brother are completely different in appearance and personality. You don't think of him as my brother, do you?"
"No, I just always feel that they are similar in some aspects. I can't put my finger on that feeling."
Bai Shisi took out a box of candies from the drawer and handed it to her: "The strawberry flavor you like, eating one will make you feel better."
Joey took out a piece of candy and put it in his mouth, feeling that his mind was filled with Zhou Gao's face.
She leaned back in the chair and slowly closed her eyes, her voice full of sadness.
"Maybe I'm overthinking it."
The two were driving back when Joey's cell phone suddenly rang.
Seeing that the caller ID was the housekeeper at home, she immediately answered the call.
"Uncle Li, what's the matter?"
"Miss, where are you? Come to the hospital quickly. The old lady brought a girl, saying she was the husband's biological daughter, and wanted to take him away."
Upon hearing the news, Joey's face suddenly turned cold: "I'll be there soon."
He hung up the phone and said to Bai Shisi, "There's something wrong at the hospital. Go there quickly."
When Joey hurried into the ward, he happened to see Mrs. Qiao about to pull out his father's oxygen tube.
She rushed over in three steps and two steps at a time, grabbed Old Mrs. Qiao's wrist, and asked in a cold voice: "You want to kill him, don't you?"
Old Mrs. Qiao shook her off, "I took him home. I wanted to keep him at home until the last moment of his life. Otherwise, he would die in the hospital and be a lonely ghost, unable to return home for the rest of his life."
Joey sneered: "You only thought about taking him back when he was dead. I didn't see you treating him any better when you were alive. If you dare to touch him, don't blame me for being rude."
"Joy, it's not your turn now. I have found Si Li's biological daughter. This is, whether his funeral or inheritance should be handled by her, there is nothing wrong with you."
Joey looked towards her side, and when she saw the girl's face clearly, her eyes were stunned for a moment.
