Bei Lizong took a deep breath and asked in a low voice, “Brother, tell me the truth. Is someone trying to harm me?”
The person on the other end paused, hesitated for a long time, and then said, “Yes. Think carefully, have you offended any important figures?”
“Okay, I understand.”
The other party seemed somewhat apologetic and said again, “Brother Bei, I’m truly sorry.”
Bei Lizong hung up the phone. If he really felt sorry for him, he should have hinted about it earlier, instead of waiting until now to apologize.
Bei Lizong slumped back in his leather chair, his face extremely pale.
The last call was unnecessary.
Seven days—how could he possibly gather enough goods to deliver to the other party in just seven days?
Eighty million—the thought of that number made Bei Lizong feel dizzy and lightheaded.
Bei Lizong glanced at the time, picked up his briefcase, and walked out of the office.
The whispering crowd outside immediately fell silent, looking at him with worried expressions.
Bei Lizong said to the crowd, “Everyone, go home.”
“Mr. Bei, it’s alright. We can keep looking for other clients.”
Bei Lizong patted his secretary’s shoulder, forcing a stiff smile, “Thank you for your hard work.”
The secretary, worried about him, personally escorted him to his car.
Meanwhile, Bei Yutang and Bei’s mother waited for Bei Lizong to return, and the food on the table grew cold. As the clock struck ten, they grew restless.
“Mom, let’s go to the factory and take a look.” Bei Yutang had a feeling that things had escalated.
Bei’s mother thought for a moment and then nodded, “Alright. Let’s go see.”
Just as they stood up, the door opened.
Bei’s mother and Bei Yutang immediately noticed that something was wrong with Bei Lizong’s expression. Even though he tried to remain calm, the emotions in his eyes were impossible to hide.
“Dad, what happened?” Bei Yutang took the briefcase from Bei Lizong’s hand and asked softly.
“Old Bei, what’s wrong?” Bei’s mother was also worried.
Looking at the concerned mother and daughter before him, Bei Lizong forced himself to hold back, not wanting them to suffer the same fate as him.
“It’s alright. You don’t need to worry.”
He said this, but neither Bei’s mother nor Bei Yutang believed him.
“I’m really fine. I’ve just been busy with the delivery these past few days, so I’m a little tired. I’ll be fine after a few days of rest.” Bei Lizong explained.
Bei’s mother believed him, but Bei Yutang knew the truth.
Bei’s mother smiled and said, “You always like to do things yourself. Some things can be delegated to the staff. After this busy period, let’s take a family trip to help you relax.”
“Okay.” Bei Lizong replied with a smile.
“I’ll heat up the dishes. They’ll be ready soon.”
Bei’s mother went into the kitchen, but Bei Yutang stared intently at Bei Lizong.
“What’s wrong?” Bei Lizong felt a little guilty under Bei Yutang’s gaze, as if she could see right through him.
“Dad, I have something to tell you. It’s not convenient to talk here. Let’s go to the study.” Bei Yutang said solemnly.
“Okay.”
In the study, the father and daughter sat facing each other.
“Dad, I know everything about the company.” Bei Yutang said bluntly.
Bei Lizong looked at her in surprise, “You…”
Bei Yutang continued, “Actually, you don’t need to worry about not being able to deliver the goods.”
Bei Lizong looked at her suspiciously, waiting for her to continue.
