Reborn as Zhao Ruilong of Handong, I will defy fate.

Chapter 506 Zhao Ruilong's Scheme! Crisis is what forces reform!

"What kind of crucial moment turned the tide?"

"What tricks is Ruilong up to?"

"Find him as soon as possible and have him call me back!"

Zhao Lichun's tone was authoritative and left no room for discussion.

My most beloved son actually went to try the new vaccine himself.

To avoid worrying his family, he even lied and said he just had a cold.

Zhao Lichun was naturally furious.

"Dad, don't be angry. Ruilong isn't a three-year-old anymore. He must have his reasons for doing this..."

"I'm not angry. I just want to hear his grand reasoning. What kind of special pneumonia is he trying to prevent that would be worth risking his life for?"

"Okay, I'll go upstairs to find him now."

After hanging up the phone, Zhao Xiaohui turned and returned to the dining table.

"You two take your time eating, I'm going upstairs now."

"Wait a moment."

Gao Xiaoqin asked urgently, "Sister, aren't you going to eat? Even if we need to discuss hiring new people, there's no need to rush, is there?"

Zhao Xiaohui picked up the resume folder in one hand and the plate in the other.

"It's not about the newcomers. My dad needs to talk to Ruilong. You guys keep eating, don't worry about me."

"But you've left so much food on your plate, are you just going to take it away and throw it away?"

Gao Xiaoqin spoke up again to remind her.

At this moment, Gao Xiaofeng, unaware that her sister was stalling for time, indirectly helped by reminding her.

"Sister Hui, our company strictly prohibits wasting food! If you throw away so much, you'll probably get a reprimand!"

Gao Xiaoqin quickly replied, "That's right. As the president of the group, you should set an example. Otherwise, what if everyone follows suit?"

"I……"

After looking around, Zhao Xiaohui sat down, picked up her chopsticks, and began to eat voraciously.

At this moment, she certainly had no interest in chatting and laughing with Gao Xiaoqin and her sister.

Watching Zhao Xiaohui devour her food, Gao Xiaoqin grew anxious.

Judging by Zhao Xiaohui's eating speed, she could probably finish her meal in less than two minutes and get upstairs to her office within five minutes.

But based on her understanding of Zhao Ruilong's fighting ability, the battle definitely wouldn't be over within five minutes.

How can this be done?

Gao Xiaoqin ate while thinking, but she couldn't think of any way to stop Zhao Xiaohui.

He watched helplessly as Zhao Xiaohui finished eating and left, wanting to call her back, but he couldn't come up with a suitable reason.

"Hopefully Brother Long has finished fighting!"

"I also hope that even if Sister Hui sees it, she won't be angry!"

Gao Xiaoqin prayed silently in her heart.

Zhao Xiaohui, who left with great speed, was only thinking about seeing her younger brother as soon as possible.

Take the elevator upstairs, swipe your card, and push open the office door.

Seeing that his younger brother's phone was on the desk, it's no wonder his father couldn't get through to him.

I picked up the gift box on my desk, opened it, and saw that the pendant on the gold necklace was a rat (Chinese zodiac animal).

Among the women around my brother, who is born in the Year of the Rat and happens to work at the group headquarters?

Zhao Xiaohui immediately thought of Zhong Xiaoai.

"Little Ai, oh Little Ai!"

"I always thought you were quite serious."

"I never knew you could be so indecent!"

"If your dad, Zhong Zhengguo, knew how close you and Ruilong were, he'd probably be spitting blood!"

With a sigh, Zhao Xiaohui closed the gift box and put it back on her desk.

Then they opened the insulated container; the food inside was still untouched.

After closing the lid, Zhao Xiaohui pulled over a chair and sat down.

After glancing at his watch, he waited quietly.

Time passes slowly.

The Gao sisters had finished eating and returned, but the door to the lounge was still closed.

"Sister Hui, please have some tea!"

Gao Xiaoqin brought over a cup of tea with a smile, her voice quite loud.

Zhao Xiaohui smiled coldly.

She knew, of course, that Gao Xiaoqin wanted to remind her younger brother in the lounge.

"Thank you, go take your lunch break. I'll call you if I need anything!"

After sending Gao Xiaoqin away, Zhao Xiaohui raised her wrist to check the time.

It's already 12:30, we can't wait any longer.

Otherwise, my father would definitely call to urge me.

Just as she was about to knock on the door, the door to the lounge finally opened.

Then, Zhao Ruilong, the younger brother, came out, looking refreshed and in good spirits.

The moment the siblings' eyes met, Zhao Ruilong was naturally stunned.

"How did you come?"

Zhao Ruilong spoke first, asking the question.

"Dad needs to talk to you. He's called many times but you haven't answered, so I'm here!"

Zhao Xiaohui picked up the two cell phones her younger brother had left on the table and said with a teasing smile.

At this moment, Zhong Xiaoai also came out of the lounge.

Although she wasn't disheveled or had messy hair, her rosy complexion and spring-like eyes clearly indicated that she had just experienced a particularly happy time.

Noticing Zhao Xiaohui's scrutinizing gaze, Zhong Xiaoai instinctively lowered her head in embarrassment and awkwardness.

She still knows how to be shy.

"You go back first!"

Zhao Ruilong calmly gave the instructions.

Even if it were his second sister Zhao Xiaohui sitting behind his desk, or even his nominal wife Lu Yike, Zhao Ruilong wouldn't be afraid.

Having finally transmigrated into the body of a powerful and wealthy family, and through her own hard work and effort, she has become a top-tier noble. Shouldn't she be able to do whatever she wants?

Even if we invited Gao Xiaoqin and her sister along, it wouldn't be a big deal.

"okay!"

Zhong Xiaoai immediately turned and left.

"Wait a moment!"

Zhao Xiaohui suddenly called out, then picked up the gift box that was on the desk.

"Don't forget to take the New Year's gift from Ruilong!"

Zhong Xiaoai bit her red lips tightly, her cheeks flushed.

I steeled myself and went to the desk, accepting the gift box with both hands.

"Thank you, Sister Hui."

"No need to thank me, we're family, no need to be so polite."

After letting go, Zhao Xiaohui gestured with her chin toward the door.

"Remember to close the door after you leave. I have something to discuss with Ruilong."

"Okay okay."

Zhong Xiaoai held the gift box in both hands and turned to leave.

In her eagerness to leave, she clearly forgot that strenuous exercise can be quite damaging to the body.

After taking only a few steps, he almost stumbled and fell because his legs were too weak.

Fortunately, Zhao Ruilong reacted quickly and stepped forward to support her, thus preventing an embarrassing fall.

"Slow down!"

"Uh-huh!"

Zhong Xiaoai's face turned even redder.

She no longer dared to look back at Zhao Xiaohui's expression.

She wished she could disappear into a crack in the ground, steadied herself, quickly let go of Zhao Ruilong's hand, gritted her teeth, and strode away.

This time she learned her lesson and didn't take big steps, so her body wouldn't hurt as much and she could walk more steadily.

As the door closed, Zhao Xiaohui couldn't help but tease:

Even if it's dry wood meeting a raging fire, you should still cherish and protect her.

"Not that serious!"

Zhao Ruilong sat down at his desk and opened the thermos.

Take out the food, which is no longer very hot, and place it on the table one by one.

"Tell me, what do you want from me?"

"Dad knows that you lied about having a cold and actually tested the vaccine yourself."

"you said?"

"Can I not tell? Can this be kept a secret forever?"

"What was his attitude?"

"Of course he's furious. He told me to find you as soon as possible and have you call him back. I never expected that you and Zhong Xiaoai would... never mind, I won't say anymore."

Zhao Ruilong picked up some food and ate some rice, laughing, "It was just a spur-of-the-moment thing; we don't do this all the time."

"You know that's good! Don't think that just because you're young you can be completely unrestrained. As long as you have money and power, you'll never lack beautiful women. For example, when we hire a receptionist, there are so many beautiful women that it's like a beauty pageant. But if your health collapses, it's hard to make up for it!"

Zhao Xiaohui has always doted on her only younger brother.

When Zhao Ruilong was first released from prison, she was very understanding of the suffering her younger brother had endured in prison.

So I arranged for my younger brother to stay at the Huilong Hotel in Luzhou, where he could eat, drink, have fun, and enjoy himself to the fullest.

During that period, she spared no expense to make sure her younger brother was well taken care of by any beautiful woman he fancied.

By now.

My brother is no longer short of women.

He played an extremely important role in Huilong Group and in his father's career.

Therefore, Zhao Xiaohui's attitude has changed. She is no longer worried that her younger brother is not having enough fun, but is afraid that he will ruin his health by indulging in pleasure.

"Don't worry, sister, I know what I'm doing! Even if I have many women around me, I don't party every night. Today was a complete accident!"

"What kind of accident? You pretended to be sick and rested at home for a few days, and then you couldn't hold back after Zhong Xiaoai, who showed her true colors, seduced you?"

"Hey sis, you know it, why did you have to say it out loud?"

Zhao Ruilong rolled his eyes at him and then buried his head in his food, eating heartily.

"Alright, alright, I won't talk about your ridiculous behavior in broad daylight. You should think about how to explain this to Dad!"

"Is there even a question? Just call him and I'll tell him directly!"

"Fine, you've got guts!"

Zhao Xiaohui immediately dialed her father's number.

"Hey Dad, I found Ruilong. He was in a meeting and didn't answer your call. Talk to him now, I'm on speakerphone!"

After turning on speakerphone, Zhao Xiaohui placed the phone in front of Zhao Ruilong.

He thought his furious father would immediately launch into a tirade of angry words and questions.

result……

"Ruilong, have you had lunch yet?"

Hearing her father's concerned greeting, Zhao Xiaohui couldn't help but roll her eyes.

No wonder my older sister has always said that Dad is extremely biased towards boys and favors girls all these years.

Looking back now, it was indeed far off by a significant margin.

"I'm eating right now, what about you?"

"I just ate. I heard you had a cold and fever for a few days, but I didn't expect you to be personally testing the new vaccine. What's going on? Aren't you afraid of the danger?"

Zhao Xiaohui really wanted to interrupt and ask, "Dad, where's your authority? Why don't you yell at me?"

"There is no danger. I received an inactivated vaccine, which has already eliminated the virus's activity. Moreover, researchers have conducted many rigorous tests beforehand. The worst outcome is that the vaccine is ineffective and has no protective effect against the virus!"

"Is that really true? Don't think I don't know anything about biomedicine!"

"Of course it's true. Why would I lie to you? Think about it, if there were real danger, would I risk my life? I haven't had enough of the happy life of being rich, powerful, and surrounded by beautiful women. Why would I risk my life?"

"Then why do you personally experience the vaccine and not let others try it?"

"It's precisely because I'm afraid of dying that I want to get vaccinated to prevent infection! Otherwise, if the vaccine is injected into someone else's body, how will my own body develop antibodies against the virus? After a few more clinical trials to ensure it's foolproof, I'll make sure my whole family gets vaccinated so we can all develop immunity to the virus!"
