Fang Siyan didn't expect Ding Ruola to still remember this.
Giving 5% of the equity to Bai Lijingming might be the most regrettable decision he made in the past few years.
Fortunately, this man was still reliable at the critical moment and didn't play him false.
"I'm really curious why he didn't target you at that time!"
What Ding Ruola was referring to was the previous voting on the decision - making power.
The man suddenly stopped stroking Ding Ruola's hand. He lowered his head and glanced in an unknown direction.
"I'm not sure about this either. This man is erratic, and I can't figure him out."
Fang Siyan's pause made Ding Ruola feel uncomfortable. The girl felt that Fang Siyan must be hiding something from her.
She didn't say anything, but her body was quite honest.
The girl wriggled in Fang Siyan's arms, and finally Fang Siyan had to let go of Ding Ruola.
She sat up and leaned against the head - board, starting to fiddle with her phone.
"Why are there so many friend requests?"
Ding Ruola was quite puzzled. She hadn't had any new clients recently, and the company hadn't recruited any new designers. Who were these people?
She was a bit conflicted inside. She went in and out of the Weixin interface, and finally chose a person whose avatar seemed to suit her taste and sent a friend request.
"Hello! I'm Xu Chang'an!"
A member of the Xu family?
She had no connection with the Xu family. What were their intentions?
Ding Ruola glanced at Fang Siyan. The man was holding a newspaper, and the whole newspaper completely blocked Fang Siyan's face.
Sometimes, the girl really couldn't stand Fang Siyan's old - fashioned way.
[Xu Chang'an: There's a Xu family dinner! Please come!]
What did the Xu family have to do with her, Ding Ruola?
Ding Ruola directly replied with three question marks.
[Xu Chang'an: My younger brother is willing to hand over the equity to you, which means he accepts you! You're also a part of our Xu family.]
The girl looked at the message on her phone and couldn't help laughing and crying.
Was it so easy to get into the Xu family?
"Lao Fang! I've got something to tell you!"
Fang Siyan folded the newspaper in his hand a few times and put it on the bedside cabinet.
"The Xu family invited me to their family dinner!"
The girl nodded and kept stealing glances at the man's expression.
The man's face was like the summer weather, changing unpredictably. Ding Ruola immediately felt uncertain.
"Actually!"
"If you want to go, then go!"
It was a good opportunity that the Xu family was now taking the initiative to contact Fang Siyan.
With Fang Siyan's permission, the big stone weighing on Ding Ruola's heart finally fell. She let out a long breath, and the expression on her face relaxed a lot.
On the day of the dinner, Ding Ruola chose a low - key evening dress, a simple one - shoulder, black hip - hugging long dress, which showed off the girl's exquisite figure.
Fang Siyan didn't come to the dinner today because he had a case to handle and had to stay in the company to deal with it.
The dinner was held by the lake behind the villa area. There were quite a lot of mosquitoes by the water in summer.
Especially in places with bright lights, thick smoke, and dense population, there were an abnormally large number of mosquitoes.
Ding Ruola regretted a bit. She shouldn't have sprayed perfume today. She should have just put on some Liushen mosquito - repellent toilet water before going out.
"Miss Ding!"
A man's voice came from behind Ding Ruola.
Ding Ruola turned around and sized the man up and down. He was about thirty years old, and his eyebrows were somewhat similar to Xu Changning's, especially those shrewd triangular eyes.
"May I ask who you are?"
The girl took a small step back. The man's approach made Ding Ruola feel invaded.
"Xu Chang'an!"
The man forced a smile, and his eyes were fixed on Ding Ruola's chest.
Ding Ruola followed the man's gaze, and his look made her want to vomit.
She endured the nausea and gave a sweet smile.
"It's too crowded here!"
Xu Chang'an understood what Ding Ruola meant. The two of them walked to the lake, and the man handed the glass of wine in his hand to Ding Ruola.
Ding Ruola had learned her lesson. She never drank at such dinners.
She quickly waved her hand, and the man had to hand the extra glass of wine to a waiter beside him.
"The purpose of inviting you here today is very simple. I just want you to return the 7% of the equity to our Xu family!"
Just as she had expected.
The Xu family didn't really care about Xu Siyan. All they wanted was the equity in the boy's hands.
Ding Ruola's cold smile made the man feel uncomfortable.
Xu Chang'an suddenly stood up from the chair and waved his hand into the air.
All of a sudden, Ding Ruola was surrounded tightly.
Ding Ruola guessed that these people were all from the Xu family.
There were sons and their families.
The crowd was noisy. I don't know which woman started it, but she shouted "home - wrecker", and then the whole crowd boiled. Whether old or young, male or female, they seemed to have no sense of propriety or shame, shouting those three words in different tones.
Ding Ruola stood in the middle. She wanted to escape, but every time she reached the edge of the crowd, she would be pushed back to the middle.
"I won't touch Xu Siyan's equity. I'll return it to him naturally when he comes back from abroad!"
Although the equity of Fangyuan Group was very tempting to Ding Ruola, she knew that these equities didn't belong to her in the end. She was just the current agent.
"You'd better hand it over now! Whether he can come back or not is up to us!"
Xu Chang'an showed his true nature. He directly picked up a glass of wine and splashed it on Ding Ruola's face.
The dark - yellow wine stain slid down Ding Ruola's face and flowed into the crevice.
The man's eyes followed the wine to Ding Ruola's chest.
"You're really slutty!"
Those people stepped forward step by step. Ding Ruola could only step back, but after taking a few steps, she bumped into a stone.
This stone was the railing by the lake to prevent people from falling into the water at night when they couldn't see the way clearly.
Ding Ruola touched the cold railing, turned to look at the dark lake, and behind her were those crazy people.
She gritted her teeth, took out her phone immediately, and sent a voice message to Fang Siyan as quickly as possible.
"Lao Fang! Come and save me!"
Fang Siyan had just finished a meeting. He estimated the time. The Xu family dinner should be over soon. He was just about to send a message to Ding Ruola asking if he should go and pick her up.
As soon as he clicked into Weixin, he heard Ding Ruola's cry for help.
A cold light flashed in the man's eyes. He didn't expect the Xu family to be so insatiable.
He had been benevolent enough not to use means to gather all the Xu family's equity into his own hands at that time. Now they were using such a method to force Ding Ruola to hand over the equity in her hands.
These people were really daring!
"Zhang Jun, get the car ready! Go to Xinghu Lake!"
Zhang Jun knew that the Xu family was having a dinner there today. Fang Siyan usually didn't like to interfere in other people's family affairs. What had gotten into him today?
Because the villa was in the suburbs, when they passed a certain section of the road, the whole section was dug up due to a natural gas leak, and no vehicles could pass through. They had to take a detour.
Fang Siyan sat in the car, his eyes fixed firmly on the watch on his wrist.
Every time the second - hand turned a circle, Fang Siyan became a bit more impatient.
"How much longer?"
"About twenty minutes!"
