Surrounded by more than a dozen men in black, the female owner of the flower shop first had a horrified expression on her face, and then turned into a look not to be bullied, and asked Jiang Yao: "Miss Jiang, what do you mean?"
Jiang Yao didn't beat around the bush with her, her beautiful eyes were even sharper than hers, and she said in a cold tone: "Isn't it obvious? Since you insist on seeking bad luck on my company's housewarming day, I don't mind giving you a gift in return."
"W-what do you want to do?" The flower shop owner stared at her warily.
The flower shop employees on the side also looked at Jiang Yao with the same expression. Some couldn't help shouting, "Well, you are already illegally imprisoned. We can definitely ask a lawyer to sue you!"
Sue her? Jiang Yao snorted indifferently and curled her lips: "I did not illegally detain you. You came to my company's housewarming party uninvited."
"Let these distinguished guests eat all the flowers." With a cold temperament all over her body, she turned around and ordered the bodyguards in a calm tone.
What?
Eat the flowers?
Before the people in the flower shop could digest what she meant, they saw one of the bodyguards move. He reached out quickly and ruthlessly to twist the collar of the flower shop owner, and dragged him to a flower basket——
"Eat, cut off a finger for every word of nonsense."
The flower shop owner didn't expect that he would attack suddenly, and naturally struggled fiercely after reacting.
"Let me go! Someone's coming! He's killing someone!"
The florist was punching, kicking and howling.
The companion next to her was influenced by her and started to cry at the top of his voice: "Someone is coming! The black shop is killing people!"
"We just came to deliver a flower basket for the opening, but the boss actually wants to kill us!"
However, these bodyguards are not ordinary thugs, all of them have seen blood.
The bodyguard standing next to the flower shop owner took out a palm-sized dagger from nowhere, grabbed the flower shop owner's arm with one hand and folded it back, and pointed it down her palm with the other hand. He raised the knife and dropped it. The little finger fell off——
"ah!"
The flower shop owner wailed sadly.
When the companions next to him saw the bloody severed finger that fell on the ground, they all looked horrified. It was as if their throats were grasped by a pair of invisible hands, and they could no longer howl out a word.
There was a lot of excitement inside, and the onlookers outside also wanted to break through the wall of bodyguards to find out.
"What are you doing?"
"Did someone really die?"
"Should we call the police?"
Hearing these comments, the leading bodyguard just turned his head and explained: "It's nothing, the film company is auditioning."
In this era, the film industry in Hong Kong was developed, and there were filming studios everywhere. The bodyguard asked his companions to open an opening in the wall so that everyone could look inside.
There was a streak of blood on the ground and a bloody severed finger. The man in black played with the dagger in his hand and smiled naturally: "They are all props."
"Right?" Then he glanced at the flower shop owner with a threatening look.
The flower shop owner's face was pale and his teeth were chattering up and down. He had no doubt that as long as she dared to tell the truth, the next thing that would fall off would not be her finger, but her life.
He could only nod his head repeatedly to confirm what the man in black said: "Yes, yes... we are auditioning."
It turned out to be a trial show. The onlookers took a few curious glances, sighed that the props and actors' acting skills were quite realistic, and gradually dispersed.
When everyone dispersed, the flower-eating game started again.
All the employees in the flower shop lined up in a row, with two baskets of flowers in front of each person, picking petals and stuffing them into their mouths in an orderly manner.
Each one's face looked like a palette, and they mechanically picked flowers and put them in their mouths. Then they stared hard and swallowed the petals hard.
The chrysanthemum is okay, but the taste of datura is rather bitter. The petals are both tendons and leaves. If you eat them, your throat will be sticky, and the air will be filled with the sound of retching.
But no one dared to speak out. The severed finger lying there bloody on the ground was both a threat and a warning.
Originally, Jiang Yao had no intention of embarrassing the people in the flower shop. To put it bluntly, the flower shop is just a tool, and the real disgusting people are the people who order flowers behind the scenes. She never thought that the flower shop owner was not a person who knew current affairs, so she stopped pursuing it. Let them carry the flower basket away, and the boss still plans to earn this unethical money, so you can't blame her for being cruel.
However, Jiang Yao's employees did not feel that their boss was cruel at all. Instead, they gathered around her and looked at her with admiration. Working with such a boss gave them confidence and security.
Under the supervision of the bodyguards, the people at the flower shop finally finished eating the ten baskets of flowers, all with earthy expressions on their faces.
"Can we go?" a flower shop employee asked.
Jiang Yao glanced at the person asking the question casually: "Give me the information of the person who ordered the flowers."
This time the other party was very aware of current affairs, and honestly told everything she knew, and also left a phone number: "The person said that after the flower basket is signed for, she will make a call and she will pay the balance."
Of course, the price of ten times was not paid in one lump sum. Instead, half of the deposit was paid first, and the rest was paid later.
Looking at the scruffy handwriting, he was definitely not a rich man. Jiang Yao had already eliminated two suspects in his mind.
She thought about it, pointed to the phone at the front desk, and said to the flower shop: "Call him now and tell him that the flower basket has been delivered. Many people are watching, and ask him to come over and watch the fun."
"This..." The person in the flower shop obviously didn't want to get involved in the fight between the two parties.
The bodyguard next to him saw his hesitant look, glanced at him with a heavy look, and flipped the dagger flexibly in his hand.
At this time, the man picked up the phone and dialed without hesitation.
Jiang Yao secretly lamented that fighting violence with violence was still effective. They were all a group of masters who would take the hard and not the soft.
Coincidentally, after the call was made, the other party was actually nearby and rushed over immediately.
This is the Central Plaza, surrounded by high-rise buildings. Jiang Yao's store is located on the ground floor of an office building, with cafes and restaurants nearby.
The bodyguards were scattered and lurking in nearby stores, waiting for help.
Ten minutes later, a slender figure appeared in the cafe only two stores away from the GA company. He first bought a cup of hot latte and held it in his hands. Then he walked out of the cafe and stood at the door and looked towards GA from time to time. Looking around.
"Ms. Jiang, the suspected target appears in the Costa Cafe. You can come out and identify him." The bodyguard conveyed to Jiang Yao through the headset.
Jiang Yao opened the door, walked out of the company and went straight to Costa Coffee, and happened to bump into the slender figure.
It’s actually Liang Xue!
Jiang Yao had almost forgotten about this person. Liang Xue was the former editor-in-chief of GA magazine. When Jiang Yao took over the magazine, she was the first to resign. She sarcastically said that Jiang Yao didn't understand the magazine business and would have to do it sooner or later. The company is corrupt and wants to encourage the editorial team to resign altogether, leaving Jiang Yao with no one available.
Later, Jiang Yao heard that Liang Xue and Feng Meilin were best friends, and they often cursed Jiang Yao when they were together.
Feng Meilin was originally the deputy editor of Ming Pao. She was expelled from the newspaper for committing evil acts on Jiang Yao. Later, the Feng family used the power of the Southeast Asian brother to take revenge on Jiang Yao. In short, both Feng Meilin and Liang Xue hated Jiang Yao.
So when Jiang Yao saw Liang Xue who happened to appear here, there was no need to doubt that she was the one who sent the flower basket.
When the enemy met, they were extremely jealous. Liang Xue was the first to sneer and raise her lips: "Hey, isn't this Boss Jiang?"
Not to be outdone, Jiang Yao raised her lips and said, "Hey, isn't this Editor Liang? How about it? Where do you get your job?"
Just poke the lung tube. Sure enough, after hearing this, Liang Xue's expression froze instantly, and then she looked at Jiang Yao with a bit of resentment in her eyes.
After Liang Xue resigned from GA, she never found a suitable job. There were jobs, but no matter where she went, she could no longer get the title of editor-in-chief and could only be an ordinary editor.
Naturally, a proud person like Liang Xue couldn't bear the feeling of disparity, so she always stayed in the same place. She was unemployed at home. When things didn't go well and she was idle, it was easy to blame everyone and others. In addition, her best friend Feng Meilin was there to encourage her every day. Speaking ill of Jiang Yao, Liang Xue gradually blamed Jiang Yao for her current situation.
If Jiang Yao hadn't taken over the magazine, she would still be her editor-in-chief!
So everything is because of Jiang Yao, and Jiang Yao's appearance is the beginning of her misfortune!
Liang Xue's face was distorted with hatred: "Humph, you were able to take over GA just because of the Chen family's influence. If you hadn't married the eldest young master of the Chen family, you thought it would be your turn to show off your power in front of me!"
Jiang Yao raised her beautiful eyebrows and said softly: "It sounds like you can develop GA without me taking over. Do you need me to help you recall your performance during your tenure? Double-digit sales every month. It’s too embarrassing to say, if I were you, I would be embarrassed to get paid.”
"You!" Liang Xue was so angry that her mouth was crooked and her eyes were squinting. The little bitch who married into a rich family based on her reputation dared to laugh at her?
Let’s see if she doesn’t disfigure her face with heat!
She raised her hand angrily and threw the coffee cup in her hand at Jiang Yao's face!
However, Jiang Yao moved faster than her. He ducked beside her, grabbed her arm with both hands and folded it inward——
Liang Xue splashed all the coffee on her face.
"Ahhh!"
Washing her face with 85-degree hot latte, she felt a sharp pain on her skin, as if a fire was burning fiercely, causing her to scream in pain.
At this moment, she couldn't even think about fighting back with Jiang Yao. Liang Xue rushed into the cafe in a panic, looking for cold water to cool down the skin on her face.
The bodyguard lurking in the dark signaled to Jiang Yao whether to stop Liang Xue. Jiang Yao waved her hand to signal the bodyguard to leave.
There was no point in trying to kill Liang Xue. The punishment of having a woman's face burned and disfigured was enough.
The skin on her face is delicate. Even if Liang Xue goes to the hospital for treatment immediately, the burnt area will not recover as before, so her appearance is ruined.
Jiang Yao turned around and walked towards the company. Thinking of the cup of scalding coffee, she still felt a little scared. Liang Xue's cup of coffee came exactly in front of her face. If she had reacted slower, she would be the one who would be disfigured by the scalding.
Fortunately, she did not relax her vigilance against Liang Xue from the beginning, especially when she saw the steaming cup of coffee in Liang Xue's hand.
After adjusting her expression, Jiang Yao stepped into the company.
The people in the flower shop had already left. When the other employees saw Jiang Yao, they immediately rushed up curiously: "Boss, have you seen that person? Who did that immoral thing?"
Jiang Yao didn't hide it either: "Liang Xue."
Liang Xue? !
Except for Huang Weide, who didn't recognize him, other colleagues had shocked expressions on their faces.
Liao Mei shook her head, with a sigh on her face: "I didn't expect that she is such a person. Fortunately, I thought she was quite bookish before, but I didn't expect that her temperament and character are completely inconsistent."
"What a bookish person, she is obviously sanctimonious. In the past, she always liked to steal her own name from our manuscript publishing department." Editor Barbecued Pork said.
Bo Zai and Ah D also looked like they felt the same way.
Liang Xue was the editor-in-chief who was passed over for the position, and she had no real talent or knowledge. The several editors were all honest people who worked hard, and she often usurped the fruits of their labor.
It was also because of this that when Liang Xue encouraged everyone to resign, everyone did not choose her, but stayed and followed Jiang Yao.
A good housewarming day was ruined by Liang Xue, and the editors were all a little depressed.
Liao Mei also felt unlucky and turned around to get a mop to deal with the blood stains at the door.
Jiang Yao glanced at the blood on the ground and said with a smile: "It's okay, it's okay, we're off to a good start!"
Anyway, the blood is red, and Liang Xue’s face should be very red at this moment!
With double prosperity coming, the company is sure to be prosperous!
