Xiong Zhi entered the police station. She sat in the waiting area and waited. After a while, he saw a middle-aged man and a tall man with a briefcase come out of one of the rooms.
When the room was opened, she got a glimpse of a young man in the room.
Seeing the young man, Xiong Zhi relaxed. Her target was there.
'Seems like my timing was right.'
***[RR]: How did Xiong Zhi know that he would be in the police station, and which police station? Did she get superpowers?***
***[RR : stop it...back to their story. ?(????)?****
Xiong Zhi waited for the man to come out. After a while, she saw him come out and was led to a temporary jail.
He sat on the ground with his shoulders.
She watched him punch the ground and hide his face in his hands.
She walked toward the jail.
An officer suddenly blocked her way.
"Excuse me, are you lost? Underage people should not be here." The officer said.
Xiong Zhi picked up her ID from her pocket and held it out for the officer to see.
"I'm not underage."
Well, she was....not actually. She just made a fake I.D. with a 1919-year-old's age. They would not check it anyway.
The police officer looked at the card. When he saw her age, he looked again at Xiong Zhi.
Xiong Zhi was taller than the other girls. She has long legs. At the age of sixteen, her height was 5'6. But her young, beautiful, immature, cold face told other people that she was 16 or 17.
But that's not what the officer focused his attention on. Because she was wearing a cap, he could not see her face. But when he looked carefully at her to determine her age, he was captivated by the young girl's beauty. He had never seen a beauty as beautiful as her.
He was open-mouthed. Xiong Zhi used this chance.
"I just need to talk to my brother. You see, our mother was sick, and she was looking for him. I need to get him out before our mother dies." She boldly lied.
The police officer seemed not to notice her lie or her monotone voice with her emotionless face when she said those words.
The officer just nodded while gawking at her beautiful face. He seemed to have forgotten that he had just received a bribe earlier to not let anyone interact with the man in the cell.
Xiong Zhi walked towards the cell. Fang Dien was still looking at the ground.
"Mr. Fang," Xiong Zhi called him.
Hearing his name called in a cold but melodious tone, he looked up.
What Xiong Zhi saw was a gorgeous face. He had thin, silky brown hair that looked so soft. His brown brows that aligned neatly, his dark, beautiful,l chocolate eyes with a struggling look covered by fine, long lashes, his tall nose, and his somewhat pale, full lips that slightly parted. All in all, she was looking at a model-like figure.
She now understood why he had a tough life. With that face and figure, he was like a tempting, delicious food for lustful men and women.
But Xiong Zhi was not affected. She was used to seeing a beauty.
She always saw Linfeng and her rich classmates.
Fang Dien just looked at her. Waiting for her to speak. He could not see her face. But he knew she was young. However, she was a stranger to him.
" Mr. Fang, I'm Xiong Zhi. I'm here to take you out. But with a condition."
When he heard that, his face darkened.
This bastard!
Earlier, he was lost to Mr. Su. Because Mr. Su had a lawyer. Even though the charge against him was assault and harassment with a lack of evidence, it would still have taken him two years in prison. Because of that bastard Su and his money, he would stay in prison for two years, even though the case was lacking in evidence.
The bail was also high. He didn't have enough money to bail himself out. He didn't have someone to borrow from because he did not have any friends. He was very busy surviving that he didn't have any time to make friends.
He knew he had no way to make himself out. But he would not concede to their conditions. He remembered what that bastard Su said before he left.
" But I'm a good man. Since nothing happened, I will consider things if he 'apologizes' to me." Mr. Su said with a lustful expression while looking at him.
He knew what he meant. If he considered sleeping with that bastard, he would withdraw his charge and consider it a truce.
Never!
He would rather stay in prison than satisfy that bastard's sexual needs. Just thinking about it made him want to vomit.
Now, they send another one to convince him to concede. Is that bastard's pet in his pants really in need?
He looked at Xiong Zhi with a furious expression.
"Get out! I would not become a [email?protected] buddy to that disgusting old man! I would rather stay here!"
Xiong Zhi just looked calmly at the furious Fang Dien. She waited for him to calm down before she reached something in her bag and handed it to Fang Dien.
It was a folder. To be exact, a contract.
Xiong Zhi was not good at words. She spoke directly. And if she continued speaking to him right now, he would not understand her intentions. So, written words probably would take effect.
" I'm not one of his people. Read this. You have three days to decide. I would be back in three days," then she left after leaving him with the folder.
Fang Dien looked at the girl's back. He was still furious, but he managed to calm down. He looked at the folder. At least, he had something to read to pass the time. He seemed to relax a bit. He opened the folder and was startled at the contents of the twenty-page document. It was written concisely and in detail.
He read the proposal, the detailed explanations, conditions, and even the layout of the company.
He was more shocked when he read what would be his position in the company.
CEO Fang
With a dumbfounded expression, he looked in the direction from which the girl had exited. These....
This seems so good to be true...
But the documents here do not lie...
Who was that girl?!
________________________________
Outside the police station, in the car, Xiong Zhi drew a check √ beside Fang Dien's name.
She was sure that the man would agree to her. Having no way out, presenting him with a tempting offer that would change his life, he would be a fool if he did not grab the opportunity.
Xiong Zhi knew that Fang Dien knew that after his service in prison, he would have a hard time finding a job as an accountant. He would be blocked by several companies, and no one would employ him with a criminal record.
So the only choice was to accept this offer.
Xiong Zhi wanted to recruit Fang Dien to her company because the man was full of potential. He was not suited to become an accountant only.
If he knew what he accomplished six years from now, he would be very proud.
In her past lifetime, Fang Dien became an outstanding man whom every big company wanted to recruit. Even his former companies regretted that they let a rare diamond go.
In his original fate, Fang Dien stayed in prison for two years. As he expected, he was blocked by several companies.
Life became harder for him. He almost lived on the streets, but he still refused to let go of his pride as a man. Many men and women wanted to have a taste of him.
Until he stumbled on a humble restaurant called RESTO. The owner was a nice old man with her granddaughter.
He ate at that restaurant, but when he was going to pay, he realized he did not have enough money left. Embarrassed, he suggested washing the dishes. The old man refused at first and wanted to give him the food, but Fang Dien persisted.
In the end, he washed all the dishes, he cleaned the kitchen thoroughly, and he even fixed their broken oven.
Seeing how Fang Dien was so diligently working, the old man was moved. He offered a job to Fang Dien. Fang Dien happily agreed.
From that day, Fang Dien became an all-around worker. Since he was doing many odd jobs during high school and college, it was not hard for him to adjust. He cooked, he cleaned, he fixed things, and he even became their accountant and manager.
Because of him, the RESTO became organized and came up with many strategies to attract customers. New food, new services, new gimmicks, until the restaurant expands and becomes famous.
In just five years, it became one of the most sought-after restaurants in China. Many investors from foreign countries wanted the RESTO to expand overseas.
When one of the reporters from the food section featured the RESTO, they discovered Fang Dien, the head manager who made the RESTO big. When they wrote the article about his stories and how he made the RESTO big from a humble background, he became sensational. Many CEO's wanted to recruit him as their managers, assistant director, etc., with a tempting offer. But he was loyal to the old man, the owner of RESTO.
Because of that, Xiong Zhi admired him more. He did not bite the hands that fed him. He was capable, full of potential, hard working, and very loyal to his benefactor. The kind of man who was rarely found.
This kind of man must be her.
I H Z H I's CEO.
