Chapter 1703: Unspoken Rules

Su Zi, who was lying on the ground, was not even looked at by passing dogs. No one had the intention of coming over to help.

She had no choice but to lick her wounds silently as she listened to the discussions around her. She called the hospital’s emergency number herself.

…

At the same time, on the other side, in a unique small house that was like a forest oxygen bar.

Ye Feng was sitting in Samia’s small courtyard, looking at the unique lights and landscape outside. He subconsciously narrowed his eyes. “I didn’t know that you knew how to enjoy life.”

“The environment here is simply a paradise on earth.”

Samia poured a glass of red wine for Ye Feng and smiled. “Didn’t you work hard your entire life just for this little bit of enjoyment?”

“Previously, to find such a house, I spent nearly half a year.”

“Moreover, after finding this place, I’ve also taken out a huge loan for 20 years. I have to worry about losing my job or my income every day.”

“Buying a big shop while taking out a huge loan?” Ye Feng glanced at her.

“This is a very long story.” Samia coughed lightly. “Strictly speaking, that shop is the result of my information channel.”

“According to the market price, that shop was sold for at least seven million dollars. However, it was auctioned off at a low price because its previous owner went bankrupt.”

“At that time, very few people knew about this news, so I picked up a bargain. I only used about three million dollars to buy it.”

Ye Feng nodded, he did not ask more about these things. He only took another sip of wine and asked the question that he was curious about back at the entrance of Sexy Bar. “No matter what, you are the chairman’s assistant at Smart Information consulting company, and countless big shots of the Empire want to cooperate with you, how can you be controlled by a small-time middle-level mistress of the Prosperity Society?”

“With the information channels of Smart Information consulting company, you can arrange for some people to investigate the mess behind Chen Dachun and Su Zi. It should be enough to make them hesitate, right?”

“Boss, you’re right.” Samia also took a sip of red wine. “With our company’s connections and the secrets that we can investigate, we can indeed easily control Chen Dachun and Su Zi.”

“But in fact, we can’t do that.”

“Because our Smart Information consulting company has always been a company with one foot on the edge of the law.”

“The reason why we were able to exist before was mainly because we have always adhered to the rules of business. We were only responsible for collecting, buying, and selling information. We would never use this information to threaten others.”

“As long as we don’t touch this red line, we won’t touch the interests of the upper class. Instead, we can be used by them and create value for them when necessary.

“…”

Just hearing this, Ye Feng felt as if he had understood everything.

That’s right.

Smart Information Consulting Co., Ltd. was a company that had one foot in the gray area.

It was already a miracle that it had been able to survive for so many years.

There was a subtle balance and scale behind this.

This balance and scale was that Smart Information Consulting Co., Ltd. only had the right to collect, investigate, and sell information, but it would never touch the field of “using this information.”

In other words, the image that it had previously displayed to the outside world was that it was not aggressive.

At the very least, it wouldn’t pose any threat to the upper echelons just because it had a huge amount of confidential information in its hands.

It was a neutral third party that had been in business for many years and had a good reputation.

“Therefore, although I can easily find out the problem between Chen Dachun and Su Zi with the help of Smart Information and force them to give in, I can’t do that.”

Samia could tell that Ye Feng had understood, she took another sip of red wine. Her eyes were like water ripples that could easily make one sink into her thoughts. “Once I do it, it will break the balance and reputation that Smart Information has worked hard to build over the years.”

“When the time comes, the pressure from all parties will be placed on the company.”

“It’d be considered light for me to take the blame and resign…”

Ye Feng nodded slowly.

“So, thank you for what happened just now, Boss,” Samia said as she raised her wine glass and toasted Ye Feng.

“If it weren’t for your help, I might have had a headache for a while.”

“That Chinese woman is too unruly…”

“It’s nothing.” Ye Feng did not think much of it, he clinked glasses with her and drank the wine in his glass in one gulp.

“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving.”

To be honest, if it was any other occasion, Ye Feng would not mind spending some time alone with Samia.

However, in such an environment, Samia’s home had a man and a woman alone together.

Samia’s figure and appearance were already extremely difficult to resist.

However, she was drinking alcohol and had just been helped by him. The way she stared at him seemed to want him to fall into her trap…

He was really afraid that he would make some mistakes that men would easily make.

Therefore, he put down his wine and smiled at Samia before getting up.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Samia also quickly finished the wine in her glass and was about to stand up to send him off.

Then, as if she had suffered some kind of pain, her body suddenly trembled and she fell back to her seat.

The collar of her shirt trembled.

It was as if she was just a little bit away from unbuttoning her clothes.

But at this moment, Ye Feng did not care about these details, he only looked at Samia’s furrowed brows, and her chest that she subconsciously touched, and his expression changed. “You have a cardiovascular disease?”

“Yes.” Samia’s breathing was very heavy, and she seemed to have difficulty enunciating. “Boss, can I trouble you to go to the coffee table in the living room and get some medicine for me?”

“It’s in the cabinet under the coffee table. It’s that small blue medicine bottle.”

“Please help me get it.”

Ye Feng immediately walked over and opened the cabinet under the coffee table, taking out a small medicine box.

Samia’s condition was very serious.

There were many different medicines in the medicine box, including quick-acting heart-saving pills, ibuprofen, and so on.

Ye Feng took out the small blue medicine bottle that she mentioned. He quickly browsed through the description before returning to Samia’s side. “This thing cannot save you.”
