Chapter 1271 - 638: The Drugged Water Cup
The girl heard this, immediately took the glass of water, and smiled as she nodded.
The driver cupped his hands in thanks, then turned and hurried away. He went back to the car and waited anxiously for fate to pass judgment.
The receptionist frowned at the glass in her hand, feeling that something was off. The driver's expression and behavior just now had struck her as a bit abnormal, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what exactly was wrong.
Just then, the CEO's personal secretary walked over. She saw the receptionist holding the glass, frowning in thought, and immediately asked, "Was it that driver just now who gave you this glass of water?"
The receptionist hurriedly nodded, handed the glass to the secretary, and said, "That's right, he gave me this glass. I just feel like something's off, but I can't say what exactly."
The secretary snorted coldly, reached out to take the glass, and said, "You don't need to worry about all that now. What happens next isn't in your job description. Just hand this glass over to me, I'll take it to the CEO."
Hearing this, the receptionist immediately passed the glass to the secretary and thanked her repeatedly. The secretary nodded, turned around, and took the elevator straight up to the eighteenth floor.
Before long, the secretary arrived at the female CEO's office. She handed the glass to Lan Zihua and briefly explained the situation. Lan Zihua took the glass, let out a cold laugh, and said, "Good thing I kept an extra eye on this guy today, or I would've drunk this for no reason at all."
The secretary beside her also let out a cold laugh and echoed, "That idiot is ridiculous, actually daring to insult our intelligence like this."
Lan Zihua nodded and said to the secretary, "Go get it tested, see what's actually in this water. Get the report to me quickly. I want to deal with this guy and whatever he's trying to do as soon as possible."
The secretary replied and immediately left the office with the glass in hand. Lan Zihua sat in the room, smoking a slim lady's cigarette and sinking into thought.
About half an hour later, the secretary rushed back into the office. She said to Lan Zihua, "President, it's pretty much as you expected. There's a large amount of a substitution agent and sleeping pills in this water. If someone drinks it, they'll pass out right away."
"That bastard! He's really got some nerve, actually wanting me to drink this crap. What the hell is he trying to do?" the secretary shouted angrily. She knew talking like this wouldn't offend the CEO; it would actually please her.
Lan Zihua sneered, glanced at the glass, and then said to the secretary, "If I'm not mistaken, his goal isn't just to knock me out and violate me. He's got bigger ambitions. Otherwise, how would a nobody like him dare pull something like this?"
The secretary grew anxious when she heard that and asked, "Then what should we do now?"
Lan Zihua frowned. Originally, she'd planned to pretend nothing had happened for the time being and bring it up later when conditions were better. But now, looking at the glass in her hand and thinking of all those sleeping pills in it, she felt extremely disgusted.
"We'd better deal with him as soon as possible, or he'll always be a lump in my heart," Lan Zihua said decisively. "I'll fire him right now, then call Mr. Lin Beichen and have him notify the relevant departments to get this guy under control immediately."
The secretary nodded and smiled at Lan Zihua. "Mr. Lin Beichen is really good to you, always there when you call. Having a friend like that—I'm happy for you."
Lan Zihua chuckled softly and said to the secretary, "What are you thinking, you little minx? Lin Beichen is great, but that doesn't mean he belongs to me. Anyway, go on back. We'll talk later if something comes up."
The secretary quickly nodded in agreement, then left the office. At the same time, Lin Beichen also received Lan Zihua's call. When he heard that the driver had actually dared to pull something like this, he was a bit taken aback.
"This guy's insane, daring to do something like that!" Lin Beichen snorted coldly.
Lan Zihua continued over the phone, "Exactly, that's what he's like. Mr. Lin Beichen, I hope you can deal with him quickly. Otherwise, it'll be bad for everyone."
"Don't worry, I'll find a way to meet your request. Just leave this to me," Lin Beichen promised solemnly.
With that, he hung up and immediately dialed Huo Sizun.
At this moment, Huo Sizun was standing in the hospital ward, his Big Brother on the brink of death. But as soon as he saw Lin Beichen calling, he still ran out to take the call.
"Mr. Lin Beichen, what are your orders?" Huo Sizun asked gravely. After spending this period of time with Lin Beichen, he already knew Lin Beichen's personality very well. Lin Beichen was someone who liked to get straight to the point and hated wordiness and constant testing.
Because of that, Huo Sizun's own style had become more and more clean-cut. On the other end, Lin Beichen said directly to Huo Sizun, "I have an arrangement and a request. I hope you can handle it well."
"No problem, just tell me what to do. I'll get on it right away!" Huo Sizun replied with a grin.
Lin Beichen then quickly ran through what had happened. "I have a friend named Lan Zihua. Something's gone wrong on her side. Her driver…"
After listening, Huo Sizun's expression changed, then he chuckled darkly. "That guy's really got guts, doing something this utterly depraved. I'll immediately send people to get that driver under control."
