Top Student: Experience Infinite Occupations - Chapter 48
48 Apologizing
“President Liang, what are you saying? The few of you were beaten up by Li Chengqian? Now you’re in the hospital? Li Chengqian doesn’t agree to sign the letter of understanding? Are you kidding?” Liu Wendao’s voice was filled with shock and disbelief.
He had seen Li Chengqian in person before. He looked ordinary. The people President Liang brought were all burly men and they all looked so unassailable. It was hard to imagine that Li Chengqian could hurt them so badly they needed medical treatment.
After checking and confirming, Liu Wendao finally believed that although Li Chengqian looked very thin, he was exceptionally strong.
This made his heart sink again.
!!
Not only was Li Chengqian good in his studies, he was also much stronger than most people in martial arts .
“Li Chengqian said that I have to kneel in front of him and beg him if I wanted his letter of understanding?” Liu Wendao got very upset. He started boiling in rage and slammed his hand on the table with a loud bang.
“President Liang, I appreciate your hard work. Rest and get well soon. You don’t have to worry about the order. I’ll arrange it.” Although President Liang didn’t succeed, he was hospitalized nevertheless. Liu Wendao naturally had to express his gratitude.
Otherwise, who would work with him in the future? Who would help him?
“President Liu, President Liang didn’t get the letter of understanding either? I told you before that although Li Chengqian is young, he’s very powerful. Using forceful methods will only backfire and intensify the conflict.” The lawyer, Zhou Wenwu, looked serious as he spoke, but he was secretly gloating.
Liu Wendao was upset with him after he failed to mediate a settlement at Li Chengqian’s house. He even ticked him off for failing to even handle a student. He came very close to calling him trash.
Not only had President Liang failed to settle the matter even after he brought three burly men over, he and the men even got hurt and had to be hospitalized.
Although Zhou Wenwu didn’t say it out loud, he was waiting to see Liu Wendao make a fool of himself.
“Furthermore, the facts of your young master’s case are clear and there’s sufficient evidence. The police handled the case very promptly. The case might be handed over for prosecution within a few days.”
“President Liu, you have to act now. Otherwise, your young master might really go to jail.” This was the professional opinion of a lawyer, Zhou Wenwu had to advise Liu Wendao.
“What?” Liu Wendao looked sicker and sicker in the face. Panic finally appeared in his usually confident eyes.
“President Liu, given the situation, I don’t think there’s any other way out. Perhaps Li Chengqian will only agree to sign the letter of understanding if you personally visit and apologize to him.” Zhou Wenwu gave the most pragmatic suggestion.
“Impossible! How can I apologize to an ordinary person?” Liu Wendao was visibly upset. As the president of the Square Group and a businessman worth hundreds of millions, he would only kowtow to someone more powerful and wealthier!
However, Li Chengqian was from an ordinary family, with neither power nor influence!
Li Chengqian was just a high school student. If word got out that he apologized to him, he would become a laughing stock.
“But if you don’t apologize, your young master will go to jail,” Zhou Wenwu said casually.
At this point, Liu Wendao lost it completely. He was originally furious, but has now suddenly fallen silent.
He went limp like a deflated balloon and slumped onto the sofa, ashen-faced.
He was now cornered and was at his wit’s end!
“I’ll look for him tomorrow and apologize!”
“President Liu, you have to act fast. The sooner the better. Otherwise, it will affect your young master’s life.” Zhou Wenwu felt so vindicated that he became lighthearted. Although he had capitulated to Li Chengqian, he felt much better now that he was vindicated.
“A devil can only be conquered by another devil. When facing a ruthless person like Li Chengqian, even you, Liu Wendao, have to cower.”
…
Early the next morning, Chen Li and Li Tianlan woke up early. Although the two of them didn’t say much, they couldn’t hide the anxiety in their eyes from Li Chengqian.
After what happened the night before, they knew that it was impossible for them to continue working in An Ning Construction Supplies Company.
Li Chengqian had offered them 30,000 yuan, and had also promised to win 100,000 yuan in the Junior Informatics Programming Competition.
Even if he really did manage to get the 100,000 yuan, how long would the money last? What would they do after this money ran out?
The two of them are panicking.
They had to find a job!
Their thoughts were very simple. “They are able-bodied and should never become a burden to their son.”
“Son, we’ll go to An Ning Construction Supplies Company to get our stuff first. Then, we’ll help you register a company.”
“Be careful when you go to school,” Chen Li reminded him worriedly.
“Dad, Mom, don’t worry. I’m very capable.” Li Chengqian was especially confident. He was worried for them however. “You two are the ones who need to take extra care.”
After chatting for a while, Chen Li and Li Tianlan left.
After Li Chengqian tidied up, he carried his school bag and came out of the house.
As soon as he stepped out of the door, he saw Jian Qingli standing quietly in the corridor with a smile on her face. She was exquisitely made up.
She woke up very early and had been paying attention to the situation at Li Chengqian’s house. When she realized that Chen Li and Li Tianlan had left, she went to stand in the corridor to wait.
“Good morning, Li Chengqian. Let’s walk together.” Jian Qingli walked over.
“You were waiting for me?” Li Chengqian was very surprised. Whether it was in his previous life or in this life, this was unprecedented. Li Chengqian had always been the one waiting for her.
“Yes, I was waiting for you.” Jian Qingli nodded gently, acting especially demure.
“What a rare honor! What’s the matter?” Li Chengqian raised his eyebrows and asked bluntly.
Jian Qingli felt extremely hurt. Her eyes were sore, and she even felt like turning and leaving.
“You used to wait for me in the past. It’s only normal for me to wait for you now.” Jian Qingli swallowed her pride and said to Li Chengqian.
“Oh, alright then.” Li Chengqian shook his head with a calm expression. He quickly walked downstairs without saying anything else.
Downstairs, Ding Ling was already standing there. When she saw Li Chengqian, a bright smile bloomed on her face. However, she immediately felt uncomfortable when she saw Jian Qingli following behind.
However, Ding Ling did not show it. She quickly walked to Li Chengqian’s side and stood very close to him. Then, under Li Chengqian’s surprised gaze, she held Li Chengqian’s hand and hugged it to her chest.
Ding Ling’s face was flushed, and her heart was racing. However, she had no intention of letting go. Instead, she tightened her grip. Ding Ling looked at Jian Qingli smugly as if she was declaring her sovereignty.
When Jian Qingli saw this scene, she gritted her teeth in hatred, but she couldn’t say anything.
She was filled with regret.
Unfortunately, they can’t go back in time. In the past, Li Chengqian listened to everything she said, but she despised Li Chengqian for not being capable, for not being good at his studies, and for not having a good family.
Now that she had seen Li Chengqian’s abilities, just when she was going to ingratiate herself with him, she found that she had been replaced.
Although Ding Ling was extremely nervous and her heart was beating wildly, she tried her best to appear nonchalant, “Li Chengqian, Teacher Tian Wenming told me that the preliminary round of the Youth Informatics Programming Competition will be held next Monday. The preliminary round is at Tianbao City’s big data center.”
“The school will organize a group trip to the venue. Get yourself ready in advance.”
“Teacher Tian Wenming has arranged to brief us at noon today. I’ll call you when the time comes. Wait for me,” Ding Ling gave detailed instructions like a considerate wife.
