Chapter 667 667: Ling Xiaoxiao Under Duress
In response to Yang Leshan's skepticism, Chen Xuan merely smiled, "Where there's a will, there's a way. In this world, there's nothing you can't handle, it just depends on whether you're willing to make it happen."
Lin Wanxi's eyes shifted. She understood the meaning behind Chen Xuan's words, "That's right, nothing in the world is difficult if one has the will!"
Chen Xuan's words further ignited Lin Wanxi's determination.
She must get this done!
At this moment, Lin Wanxi's perspective and that of the Li family father and son had quietly shifted.
The Li family father and son were solely focused on defeating New Moon Company and driving them out of the healthcare market.
While Lin Wanxi wanted to facilitate negotiations and create a win-win situation through cooperation.
As for the final outcome, it remains unknown for now.
At this time, Ling Xiaoxiao was also encountering continuous trouble.
Ever since she arrived in Jiangnan City, the hotel where she stayed was constantly visited by major company leaders and prominent families.
Quite a few rich young men wanted to catch a glimpse of her beauty and have some kind of interaction with Ling Xiaoxiao, their intentions far from pure.
Ling Xiaoxiao consistently refused to see anyone, leaving all the visiting families disappointed.
Gradually, the hotel entrance finally quieted down.
Ling Xiaoxiao finally breathed a sigh of relief, no longer having to worry about this matter.
But just as she was heading to the restaurant for a meal, she was targeted by a secretly lurking Guo Family young master.
This guy was quite patient, always hiding in the shadows, waiting for Ling Xiaoxiao to emerge from her room.
Seeing the opportunity arise, Guo Xu immediately followed and blocked Ling Xiaoxiao's path.
"Hello, Miss Ling, I've been waiting here for quite a while, and it really wasn't easy to meet you."
Guo Xu wore a playful smile, "I must say, seeing you in person is even more enchanting than seeing you on TV! A rare beauty indeed!"
Ling Xiaoxiao furrowed her brows slightly, "We don't know each other, please don't block my way."
"It's okay, meeting you is as good as knowing you."
Guo Xu chuckled and said, "I'm Guo Xu, the young master of the Guo family, deeply admiring Miss Ling."
"Shall we become friends?"
"Sorry, I'm not familiar with you, nor do I wish to be friends with you." Ling Xiaoxiao said, and continued to walk forward.
Hmph!
Guo Xu snorted lightly, "Damn it, not appreciating kindness!"
Quickly catching up, Guo Xu blocked Ling Xiaoxiao's path again, sneering coldly, "Miss Ling, you better think carefully, not becoming friends with me has serious consequences!"
Ling Xiaoxiao's gaze shifted slightly, realizing the person before her harbored malicious intent.
Jin Jiu and others, who were responsible for her security, had left after the staff from various families departed.
It was assumed no one would bother her again, but unexpectedly, Guo Xu, the one who slipped through the cracks, remained persistent.
To avoid straining relations and inviting negative consequences, Ling Xiaoxiao decided to first stabilize him.
"Young Master Guo, you are being a bit demanding. Even if you want to befriend me, this isn't the right approach."
Ling Xiaoxiao maintained a calm expression, slightly displeased, but not provoking Guo Xu.
Guo Xu chuckled, "I'm simply overly fascinated with Miss Ling, wanting to befriend you, without any intention of threatening you."
Hearing this, Ling Xiaoxiao secretly held contempt, having two bodyguards follow wasn't considered a threat to her.
"If that's the case, I might consider having a meal with Young Master Guo, just to get to know each other." Ling Xiaoxiao spoke softly.
Guo Xu was elated, "Great, Miss Ling, this is a wise choice. Befriending me won't harm you."
"I'm going to the restroom, Young Master Guo can pick a spot first, and I'll come over later." Ling Xiaoxiao said before turning towards the restroom.
Guo Xu signaled with his eyes, and two bodyguards quickly followed to prevent Ling Xiaoxiao from taking the chance to escape.
Externally calm, Ling Xiaoxiao entered the women's restroom and quickly called Chen Xuan, "Brother Chen, I've been targeted!"
She briefly explained the situation and asked Chen Xuan for help to escape.
"Okay, I'll be right over, send me your exact location in a bit." Chen Xuan hung up and, after a quick word with Lin Wanxi, drove off.
Ling Xiaoxiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief, exiting the restroom and proceeding with the two bodyguards to the upstairs private room.
"Miss Ling, the restaurant environment is too noisy, not conducive to our conversation."
"So, I took the liberty to choose a private room. Elegant setting, perfect for our deeper communication."
Guo Xu said with a sly smile, inwardly pleased with himself, thinking this time Ling Xiaoxiao wouldn't escape.
He had already secretly spiked the drinks, confident he could successfully deal with Ling Xiaoxiao.
Ling Xiaoxiao maintained a neutral expression, showing no emotional change, "Young Master Guo truly went through a lot of effort."
Guo Xu smiled broadly, personally pouring red wine for Ling Xiaoxiao, "Dining with Ling Xiaoxiao is my privilege!"
"In the future, I hope Miss Ling can become the spokesperson for our Guo family Pharmaceuticals."
Ling Xiaoxiao didn't reply, as if she hadn't heard anything.
Guo Xu wasn't in a rush; once he successfully captured Ling Xiaoxiao, he planned to take photos and videos.
Ensuring Ling Xiaoxiao couldn't resist, he would easily control her.
Then, he wouldn't only enjoy the pleasure of a beautiful star like Ling Xiaoxiao, but also blackmail her into endorsing the family business, achieving two goals at once!
"Miss Ling, I toast to you!" Guo Xu said, raising his wine glass and signaling to Ling Xiaoxiao.
