Special Agent Rebirth: The Omnipotent Goddess of Quick Transmigration-Chapter 159 - 158: Best Substitute (20) - Second Update

The Zhao parents exchanged a glance once they heard that, "Yijun, that has all passed, let’s not bring it up again."

Zhao Yijun was startled internally, but she agreed with her parents on the surface.

However, as she lay in bed, the more she thought about it, the more alarmed she became. She picked up her cellphone; she absolutely couldn’t keep this from Liao Yizhou. She had to tell Liao Yizhou that Ye Shaohua had recognized him long ago. Ye Shaohua must have harbored ulterior motives in getting close to them!

Now this was all about revenge, she couldn’t let Liao Yizhou get deceived by this woman. He, too, was involved and had the right to know the whole truth about what happened back then.

Liao Yizhou was also troubled by the news recently, and both his and Ye Shaohua’s reputations weren’t exactly good.

Especially Ye Shaohua, the third person in a love triangle, was truly hated by everyone.

He had wanted to explain to the media, but the first to oppose was Pu Zhehan, "Yizhou, if you explain, how will others see Yijun?"

It was that sentence that stopped Liao Yizhou in his tracks.

All he did was sit in his office, smoking one cigarette after another. Sometimes he wished he could slap some sense into his past self for ever getting involved with Ye Shaohua, but then he realized he was somewhat relieved for his crazy choice of her back then.

His assistant told him Zhao Yijun had something important to discuss with him.

Amid the haze of smoke, Liao Yizhou tried to recall Zhao Yijun’s face, only to find her image in his mind growing fainter, while another person slowly took her place.

He crushed out the cigarette and looked at Zhao Yijun as she entered, "What is it, just say it."

Liao Yizhou never imagined there would come a day when he could speak to Zhao Yijun with such calmness.

Carrying an agenda in her heart, Zhao Yijun didn’t notice his expression. She only gazed into Liao Yizhou’s eyes, "Yizhou, do you still remember the kidnapping from fifteen years ago? Ye Shaohua was the one who abandoned you midway and ran away!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Liao Yizhou’s hand froze, "How could she have anything to do with what happened? Weren’t you the one who was always with us?"

"How could it have been me?" Zhao Yijun looked back at him in surprise, "Ye Shaohua is my second uncle’s daughter. Back then, her father had become a vegetative person, critically ill at that time. She had come to the Zhao Family to borrow money to save her father. Because she looked like me, the kidnappers mistook her for me and bundled her up with you. Because of that, she couldn’t get the money in time, and her father died during that emergency."

"So, Yizhou, she definitely recognizes you! She must know all about our business, and she’s using her resemblance to me to get close to you for revenge. If it wasn’t for us, her father wouldn’t have died! Now she has succeeded; she has completely defeated me, Yizhou, you have to be clear-headed!"

Zhao Yijun thought that after saying this, Liao Yizhou would definitely become furious.

But he didn’t. After listening, he just sat on the chair without even moving his eyes.

"Yizhou?" Seeing Liao Yizhou so silent, Zhao Yijun felt a bit scared.

It took a long while for him to come back to his senses, giving Zhao Yijun a glance, "You should leave for now, I need some quiet."

Zhao Yijun knew that Liao Yizhou couldn’t recover from such a big shock instantly, so she didn’t say much, just comforted him with a few words and left.

As she descended, she felt the air become lighter.

She might not overpower Ye Shaohua at the moment, but she didn’t believe Liao Yizhou couldn’t. Now, Yongteng controlled a quarter of Hua Country’s economic lifeblood. It could be troublesome to move against Ye Shaohua, but it wasn’t impossible.

"Dad, Mom, don’t worry, this time she will definitely fall hard," Zhao Yijun, no longer working for General Manager Ding, reassured confidently as she returned to the Zhao Group, voicing her promise at the board meeting.

Seeing her confidence, Zhao’s father and mother let go of their worries, considering her relationship with Liao Yizhou.

The group was in good spirits as they met, the Zhao Family having fallen into an economic case lately and not recovering well. Zhao Yijun not only appeared to stabilize morale but also assured the directors that she would secure the highly-sought metal projects.

Joy was evident on everyone’s faces in the Meeting Room.

Zhao Yijun was holding the partnership files, just about to send them to her staff, when the Meeting Room door swung open.

"You?" Zhao’s mother pointed at the leader in disbelief, who was none other than Ye Shaohua’s mother. But this was not the cowering Ye Dongxiang that Zhao’s mother knew – this Ye Dongxiang was anything but timid.

"I’m sorry," Ye Shaohua’s lawyer pushed up his glasses, "As of nine o’clock this morning, Miss Ye has officially acquired the Zhao Group. Now the Zhao Group belongs to her mother, Lady Ye Dongxiang... Mrs. Zhao, right? Please don’t get agitated, and don’t show any disrespect to Lady Ye Dongxiang. Whether you can stay in this company is up to her."

The company handover went quickly, all of Zhao’s staff witnessed the visit from the business registry, and in a moment, the former Zhao Group bore the name of the Ye Family.

"What... what do we do now?" Zhao’s mother turned to Zhao Yijun, her face twisted with humiliation.

From the beginning, Zhao’s mother had looked down on the uneducated countryside woman, Ye Dongxiang. She never matched up in any respect, even her daughter could only serve as a substitute for her own.

But who could have imagined that this woman she despised would suddenly, through her daughter, rise above her head?

Just a few weeks ago, she was disparaging Ye Dongxiang from on high, and now so quickly, the roles were reversed, with Ye Dongxiang’s word determining their fate.

She couldn’t stand such a drastic fall from grace!

"It’s okay, we’ll go to Yizhou, she must have a way," Zhao Yijun reassured, confident that Liao Yizhou wouldn’t stand idly by.

She held onto this belief until she drove to Yongteng Headquarters. But as soon as she got out of the car, she saw the interview taking place in the business Plaza. freewёbnoνel.com

In front of the entire nation, Liao Yizhou made it clear, "No, Miss Zhao and I have never been together; all my teachers are aware of this. Strictly speaking, the only person I’ve been involved with from birth to now is Miss Ye. I’ve made mistakes, and she has left me because of that, but I won’t give up easily. I hope you all won’t bother her."
