"Who do you want to call?" Leng Jing asked coldly, then promptly raised her hand and knocked Song Ge's phone to the ground.
Song Ge watched helplessly as the phone fell. She instinctively rushed to pick it up, but she was a bit too slow. Leng Jing quickly stepped in front of her, blocking her way.
"What do you want?" Song Ge got angry and stared at Leng Jing unhappily. She gave up the idea of picking up the phone.
Leng Jing's cold eyes roamed over Song Ge. She looked at her contemptuously and said, "What do you think I want?"
As she spoke, she slowly moved closer to Song Ge, her eyes as venomous as a snake's.
On high alert, Song Ge involuntarily stepped back step by step, trying to keep a distance from Leng Jing.
Leng Jing seemed like a total stranger to her now. She had to be extra vigilant to prevent her from doing any more harm to Zhai Cheng.
Leng Jing wore a mocking smile all the time and kept pressing on Song Ge.
After just a few steps, Song Ge was cornered.
"Enough!" Song Ge frowned and pressed her body tightly against the wall. Her voice was also a bit hostile.
Hearing this, Leng Jing suddenly burst into laughter. The irony on her lips was magnified infinitely. "Why are you so excited? I'm not going to eat you."
Although she said so, she stopped moving forward and didn't press Song Ge anymore.
The two stood there, each on high alert.
"Leng Jing, why have you become like this? Do you know that what you're doing will hurt your uncle?" Finally, Song Ge compromised first and said with a bit of pleading.
Leng Jing sneered. There was still no trace of warmth in her eyes. "Hurt my uncle? Then why didn't you think about hurting others when you killed Ji Qingyun?"
Her words were so cold that they sent a chill down one's spine.
Ji Qingyun? Hearing this name that she had been subconsciously avoiding, Song Ge's body suddenly stiffened and her face turned pale.
So this was the reason for Leng Jing's drastic change. Why hadn't she thought of it before? She hadn't realized that Leng Jing had such deep feelings for Ji Qingyun.
After a moment of thought, Song Ge calmly explained, "That was an accident."
Even if it was indeed man - made, the mastermind had already committed suicide, and there was no way to avenge Ji Qingyun anymore.
"An accident?" Leng Jing laughed sarcastically. "He's already dead. Who knows if the truth is really an accident?"
After saying this disappointedly, Leng Jing glared at Song Ge fiercely and said word by word, "Anyway, I must avenge him. I will never let him die in vain."
So, was she going to take revenge on herself and Zhai Cheng? Song Ge added silently in her heart but didn't ask directly.
Letting out a soft sigh, Song Ge tentatively pleaded, "Leng Jing, I don't know who told you this, but please trust me. If the senior is in heaven, he wouldn't want to see you like this."
She always felt that Leng Jing wasn't such an impulsive person. She must have been instigated by someone to be so bent on revenge.
Leng Jing snorted disdainfully and shook her head indifferently. "I don't care about anything else. I'll avenge him first. I'll explain to him after I'm dead."
No matter what, she was going to avenge Ji Qingyun, even if she couldn't achieve what she wanted.
Song Ge didn't expect her to be so determined. Seeing this, she frowned in distress. It seemed that things were more troublesome than she had thought.
Not daring to provoke her anymore, Song Ge said as calmly as possible, "You must not know the whole story yet. Calm down. How about we find a place to talk it over?"
As she spoke, Song Ge slowly inched towards the phone.
Leng Jing was on the verge of madness now. She had to find a way to contact Zhai Cheng as soon as possible and ask him to come.
Leng Jing was taken aback. There was a hint of hesitation on her face.
"No need." In an instant, she thought it through and shook her head firmly. There was no room for negotiation.
What should she do? Song Ge was a bit anxious. Her eyes fell on the phone from time to time.
"Ding - ding - dong - dong." The clear ringtone of the phone echoed in the corner.
Leng Jing looked down. The two characters "Zhai Cheng" kept flashing on the phone screen.
"Let me answer the phone. If I don't answer, Zhai Cheng will definitely know that I'm in trouble and will come to investigate." Song Ge seemed to see a glimmer of hope and said in a hurry.
Leng Jing frowned and remained silent.
Meanwhile, at the construction site.
There was not much work in the company today, so after finishing his official duties, Zhai Cheng took his junior assistant directly to the construction site.
Under the guidance of the foreman, Zhai Cheng and his assistant inspected the construction site roughly. They didn't find any problems and felt relieved.
When they were about to leave, there was a sudden commotion at the entrance of the construction site.
"Go and see what's going on." Zhai Cheng frowned and walked forward curiously.
But before they could take a few steps, those people suddenly rushed towards them and surrounded them tightly.
"This is the boss of the project. It's him who made this ruthless project."
Everyone in the crowd was in an uproar. They surrounded Zhai Cheng and wouldn't let him move an inch. They were all muttering something.
"Mr. Zhai, are you okay?" The junior assistant scrambled to protect Zhai Cheng, afraid that he would get hurt.
But his strength was no match for those rioting people. Zhai Cheng was soon separated from the group.
"Mr. Zhai!" The junior assistant exclaimed and tried his best to get closer to him.
Zhai Cheng's face was as black as charcoal. He glanced at the people around him calmly and then instructed the junior assistant, "I'm fine. Don't struggle to come here."
"Don't get excited. Just talk it over. Mr. Zhai will definitely listen to your opinions." The junior assistant still kept trying to get closer to Zhai Cheng. He was so anxious that a thin layer of sweat broke out on his face.
Those people didn't listen to a single word. Hearing this, their emotions became even more agitated. They shouted and demanded that Zhai Cheng give them a proper explanation.
The junior assistant was terrified. He tried his best to get to Zhai Cheng's side. "Mr. Zhai, what should we do now?"
"Call the police." Zhai Cheng didn't say it out loud but mouthed the words silently.
These people were too emotional now. The only way out was to call the police and let them come to mediate.
The junior assistant nodded with difficulty and carefully took out his phone.
When they were inspecting the construction site just now, Zhai Cheng had put his phone with the junior assistant. It was their only hope to get out of this crisis today.
With great difficulty, he took out the phone and dialed a number by feeling.
"Hello, is this the police? We're being surrounded at the construction site in the east of the city. These people are very emotional." The junior assistant blurted out the whole thing in one breath.
It wasn't until he finished speaking that he didn't notice that the number he had dialed wasn't the police's but Song Ge's.
