After handling the series of events involving Liu Qiguang, Leng Qingqiu returned to her office. From every aspect, the outcome of this matter was undoubtedly perfect.

Victory Group secured the cooperation rights with Newman Group with a huge advantage, and Liu Qiguang, who tried to take advantage of the situation, received due punishment. After such a public humiliation like kneeling, it is believed that Liu Qiguang will never dare to target Victory Group again.

However, compared to these pleasing matters, what concerns Leng Qingqiu the most was what exactly Lu Yu did in these three days!

Three days ago, Nelson was still so arrogant, but suddenly he became extremely respectful and even signed a contract that offered no benefits to Newman Group. Such a change really surprised Leng Qingqiu.

Clearly, Lu Yu's earlier recount of his own experiences was only part of the five-year disappearance. There should be a rather significant event he never mentioned to her!

What on earth did Lu Yu do that caused such a drastic change in Nelson, far across the vast oceans in Europe?

The more she thought about it, the more perplexed Leng Qingqiu felt. However, after the previous incident with Paradise Island, she dared not investigate this matter casually anymore. She could clearly feel that this matter was much more complicated than Paradise Island, by more than just a fold!

"Let it be. I believe as long as the timing is right, all these doubts will be resolved."

Thinking of this, Leng Qingqiu frowned slightly, her eyes revealing a trace of contemplation.

...

Time flew by, and before she knew it, it was evening. At this moment, Lu Yu slowly drove out of Victory Group, lifted his gaze, and saw Xia Bing, who was just off work, heading towards the subway station.

Seeing the scene before him, Lu Yu smiled faintly. He gently pressed the accelerator, pulled up alongside Xia Bing, and said, "Xia Bing, get in the car, I'll take you home."

As he spoke, Lu Yu's words were full of amusement, appearing rather amiable.

"Sure."

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Xia Bing's face turned slightly red, and she quickly got into the front passenger seat, laughing as she said, "Great, I finally don't have to squeeze in the subway today."

In her words, Xia Bing's voice carried a hint of laughter, sounding exceptionally sweet.

"Xia Bing, you're at least a vice president now, it's about time you bought a car."

Hearing Xia Bing's words, Lu Yu laughed and said, "Just look around Lin'an City, is there any other vice president still taking the subway?"

In fact, in an international metropolis like Lin'an City, basically everyone owns a car. Under such circumstances, Xia Bing still commuting by subway really didn't match her identity as a vice president.

"I have considered buying a car, but President Leng recently gave me an apartment. If I bought a car too, would it seem too flashy?"

As she spoke, there was a trace of hesitation in Xia Bing's words.

"An apartment? Given by Leng Qingqiu?"

Hearing Xia Bing's words, Lu Yu said in surprise, his tone filled with amazement.

Even he hadn't expected that the usually cold little girl Leng Qingqiu would be so generous, directly gifting Xia Bing an apartment.

"Yes, President Leng said I've been managing the company affairs for her, and having a stable residence would be good, so she allocated an apartment near the company under my name..."

In her words, Xia Bing's voice revealed a hint of unease: "She just gave me an apartment, and now buying a car, would it cause rumors in the company?"

"It won't!"

Hearing Xia Bing's words, Lu Yu laughed and said, his words filled with amusement: "You're a vice president, after all, and your status is just below that little girl Leng Qingqiu. Besides, your contribution to Victory Group isn't small either. Her giving you an apartment is quite justified."

As he spoke, Lu Yu seemed quite happy. After all, for a gentle girl like Xia Bing to work and live in Lin'an City, having an apartment eventually is indeed a sense of security.

Thinking of this, Lu Yu continued, "And, nowadays, what president doesn't drive? As the vice president of Victory Group, it also signifies your identity and status, and your driving enhances Victory Group's image."

As the saying goes, people rely on clothes as horses rely on saddles. At Xia Bing's position, everything she does represents the face of Victory Group, so there's indeed a need to pay attention to appearance and transportation.

"But, I really don't know what kind of car to buy..."

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Xia Bing shyly said, because she was exceptionally serious about work, she really didn't know much about cars.

"That's no problem."

Hearing Xia Bing's words, Lu Yu said, "This Saturday then, I'll accompany you to buy a car. How about it?"

"Really?"

Hearing Lu Yu say he would accompany her to buy a car, Xia Bing was instantly quite happy and looked at Lu Yu with excitement, her words filled with enthusiasm.

"Of course it's true."

Hearing Xia Bing's words, Lu Yu smiled faintly, now he was also happy for Xia Bing, because it hadn't been easy for Xia Bing to reach this point, and settling down in Lin'an City was a pretty good outcome.

"Then it's settled. Saturday, I'll wait for you!"

Hearing Lu Yu's words, Xia Bing said excitedly, her words filled with happiness.

"No problem."

Hearing Xia Bing's words, Lu Yu laughed and said, his words filled with amusement, as he stepped on the accelerator and drove towards Xia Bing's residence.

However, Lu Yu was completely unaware that behind his Bentley, a black Chevy SUV was silently following.

In the driver's seat of the Chevy, a man wearing a black mask was staring intently at Lu Yu's Bentley ahead. He pressed the communicator on his mask and said, "The target has no awareness currently. The Shadow Martial Assassination Squad begins preparations. Take action at the opportune moment, we cannot afford to fail this time!"

The man's voice was altered by an electronic device, sounding extremely icy, with a hint of murderous intent!

"Copy that!"

Hearing the man's words, a crisp response came from the communicator, and another Chevy SUV quickly followed up. They silently trailed behind Lu Yu, advancing ahead.

These people were like vipers eyeing their prey in the dead of night, silent, secretive, and deadly…
