As soon as she hung up, Chen Hong called and said, "Come over and drink with me?"

Her voice was flirtatious and lazy; just listening made one think she was undoubtedly a mature woman.

Su Ming didn't want to drink at the moment, so he declined, "I have some things to take care of, not drinking." After saying that, Su Ming hung up.

"What a jerk, doesn't even want to drink," Chen Hong muttered.

Chen Hong was indeed feeling bored at the time, merely wanting to find someone to drink with, but unexpectedly Su Ming didn't want to.

Just as she was feeling a bit frustrated, Su Ming's video popped up.

Chen Hong answered and asked impatiently, "What's the matter now?"

"I got hit by a car, I'm looking for the culprit, so I'm not in the mood to drink," Su Ming said directly.

"What, hit by a car?" Chen Hong said, a little surprised, "If you got hit by a car you should go to the hospital; you don't look like you're at a hospital right now!"

"The car hit me, but I dodged it," Su Ming said, not bringing up the landlady, unsure if Chen Hong liked him.

If he said she didn't like him, it seemed they were beyond the bounds of mere friendship!

If he said she liked him, Chen Hong wasn't willing to be straightforward with him; last time they were so close yet it didn't happen in the end!

"You've offended too many people, definitely many want you dead," Chen Hong said straightforwardly.

"I admit that, but living in this world you have to offend people, if you act like a pushover you're letting yourself down and accommodating the bad guys, why should I accommodate them?" Su Ming had his own theory.

"Rubbish, people should offend others less, you see why I'm always a director at Wanhong Group, it's because I've never meddled in other people's business, and I've never bossed Li Guoqiang around. You have many good qualities, but you love to offend people," Chen Hong articulated her viewpoint.

Su Ming didn't want to argue about her view, as everyone's thoughts differ, debate was useless and would only lead to conflict.

"You're right," Su Ming replied directly.

"Have you found the culprit?" Chen Hong didn't want to dwell on this topic, returning to the main point.

"The driver only said he did it himself without anyone's orders, but I know for sure someone ordered it, and I'll soon find out who," Su Ming said confidently.

"Who do you think did it?" Chen Hong asked.

"There's a high chance it was Lao Qiming," Su Ming said.

"Impossible, Lao Qiming wouldn't do something this clean," Chen Hong said directly. In her view, it must have been Wendong Group's people who did it.

Moreover, she knew Lao Qiweng had a subordinate who used to be involved in the underground world, nicknamed Sang Biao.

This person was ruthless and efficient, which fit his style.

The things he did were even more ruthless than Li Guoqiang!

Su Ming didn't speak, and Chen Hong continued, "Listen to me, don't fight the Lao Family to the death, you can't win against them. Let me make a call to Lao Qiweng, see if you two can meet and settle things?"

"No, when I have a grudge, I avenge it, no matter how strong the opponent," Su Ming said resolutely.

"You alone can't fight Wendong Group, it's like an ant trying to topple a tree, I hope you reconsider," Chen Hong's tone grew stern.

"Hongjie, you know my character, I won't let enemies do as they please," Su Ming said earnestly.

"How about meeting face-to-face then?" Chen Hong might have felt persuasion wasn't effective over video, so she said this.

"Alright, prepare some dishes, I'll come to your place to drink," Su Ming said.

Unexpectedly, Chen Hong didn't hang up the video and began changing clothes directly.

"No way, are you tempting me?" Su Ming nearly had a nosebleed seeing her perfect figure.

"Don't overthink it, I'm not tempting you," she said while changing and then commented, "I'm going out to buy groceries, come quickly."

"Okay." Su Ming hung up immediately and headed for Chen Hong's place.

When Su Ming arrived at Chen Hong's doorstep, he found she had already returned with groceries and changed into a nightgown.

Not only were her two large assets partially visible, but her long white legs were also fully exposed.

Seeing such beauty, Su Ming instantly felt parched.

What made it even harder for Su Ming was that this woman was so beautiful, with a great allure in every move she made.

"Why are you staring at me, do I have flowers on me?" Chen Hong smiled sensually.

"Too pretty, just seeing you makes it hard to bear," Su Ming said truthfully.

"We're just drinking, don't think too much," Chen Hong said while walking to the dining room.

Because the nightgown was too short, her rear was slightly revealed as she walked, igniting even more fire within Su Ming.

"Slap!"

Su Ming slapped that plump rear.

"Someone's playing the rogue!" Chen Hong screamed, quickly sitting at the dining table.

The table was set with over ten dishes, seemingly indicating Chen Hong truly wanted to drink well with Su Ming.

What was even more remarkable was the presence of two bottles of Maotai on the table.

With that, this table was worth tens of thousands.

"Rich ladies are different, just a small drink costs thousands," Su Ming joked.

"Just a little money, the main thing is to be happy," Chen Hong smiled, filling two glasses to the brim and raising a toast, "Come on, cheers."

"Alright, cheers." Su Ming clinked glasses with her, and they both drank up.

With one glass down, Chen Hong coaxed, "Naughty brother, you're not afraid of Wendong Group, but aren't you worried Wendong Group might take it out on the landlady?"

"Wendong Group definitely wouldn't do that," Su Ming said.

"You're naive, I'm telling you, Wendong Group has someone nicknamed 'Sang Biao' who used to be involved in the underground world. They're ruthless, moreover, Lao Qiming might also point the blame at your landlady," Chen Hong said directly.

This struck Su Ming's vulnerability, as he feared Wendong Group would target the landlady because of him!

He could fight Wendong Group, but Su Ming didn't want the landlady to be in danger.

After a while, Su Ming finally said, "Call Lao Qiweng, probe his intentions?"

Although he said this, Su Ming felt very uncomfortable inside.

After all, leaving a grudge unavenged makes one not a gentleman.

All for a woman, he wound up not acting like a gentleman!

Chen Hong didn't say anything further, picking up her phone and calling Lao Qiweng directly.

Unexpectedly, no one answered.

After more than ten minutes, Lao Qiweng replied with a call, saying, "I was in a meeting earlier."

Chen Hong knew Lao Qiweng was busy, so she got straight to the point, "Chairman Lao, I have a brother who's had a bit of trouble with your brother Lao Qiming, it's quite serious. I'd like to serve as a mediator and help them reconcile."
