Xu Liwen was pushed out of the Shangdong Group's company gate, standing dazedly at the entrance, her mind in a muddle.
Of course she knew it wasn't because she was late, but because of Yang Chen.
Xu Liwen stood at the door for a long time before leaving in a daze.
Did she do something wrong? Maybe she did, but she couldn't figure out exactly what.
...
Inside the office.
Yang Chen borrowed Wei Xueqing's phone to call Zhao Feiyang.
Zhao Feiyang was very busy recently, as business had started to settle into a routine, and Chen Xiaolong and Wang Hao were quite capable, quickly promoting Zika Red Wine.
Because orders kept pouring in, Zhao Feiyang was already swamped with work.
He finally understood why so many companies were entering Flame Country; it's because people in Flame Country truly weren't short of money!
Once the ordinary vintage wines were sold out, people started specifically asking for older vintages. Money? They didn't care at all!
At this time, he saw an unfamiliar number, almost wanting to reject it, but for the sake of business, he chose to answer.
"Hello, who is this?"
Yang Chen said, "It's me, Yang Chen!"
"Boss!" Zhao Feiyang exclaimed almost disbelievingly, "Is it really you?"
"It's me!" Yang Chen said calmly.
Zhao Feiyang could still recognize Yang Chen's voice, he just couldn't quite adapt to it all at once.
After all, Yang Chen had been taken away by people from the Guard District at that time. He had everything planned back then, ready for a media attack.
But when he was ready to launch his action, he was informed that it was called off.
Since then, Zhao Feiyang had heard nothing from Yang Chen.
Getting a call from Yang Chen out of the blue today, Zhao Feiyang couldn't adapt immediately.
"Boss! That's great!" Zhao Feiyang finally responded, excitedly asking, "Are you back?"
"Yes!" Yang Chen said calmly, "I have something I need you to do."
"Go ahead!" Zhao Feiyang now fully understanding Yang Chen's identity, agreed without hesitation.
Yang Chen said calmly, "Tell Luke to have the investment group come the day after tomorrow."
"The day after tomorrow?" Zhao Feiyang frowned slightly, "Isn't that a bit rushed?"
"Just tell him the time, nothing else to worry about," Yang Chen said.
"Yes!" Zhao Feiyang nodded.
After finishing, Yang Chen hung up the phone.
Wei Xueqing couldn't help but glance over.
She found it increasingly difficult to guess Yang Chen's identity.
She never expected Yang Chen could control this investment group to such an extent.
Could it be that... this inspection group was actually Yang Chen's people?
If that were really the case, what was Yang Chen's purpose then?
Wei Xueqing couldn't quite figure it out.
Twelve o'clock sharp.
Wei Xueqing put down the last document in her hand, stood up, and walked behind the screen.
"Let's go!" Wei Xueqing said to Yang Chen.
Yang Chen nodded, stood up, and said to Ding Yutong and the noticeably nervous students, "Let's go!"
As they reached the door, Wei Xueqing said to Zhou Lan, "Clear my schedule for the next two days."
"Yes!" Zhou Lan stood up and nodded.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Wei Xueqing led Yang Chen and Ding Yutong away from the company.
In the elevator, Wei Xueqing asked, "What's going on with that Xu Liwen?"
Yang Chen said calmly, "She lost a limited edition bag identical to Teacher Ding's at the train station, insisted that Teacher Ding stole her bag, so I helped resolve it."
"Then why did she say you're a thief?" Wei Xueqing frowned.
Ding Yutong hurriedly said, "She judged him by his appearance, saying Yang Chen's clothes were too shabby and he must be a thief."
Wei Xueqing glanced at Yang Chen's clothes, saying calmly, "Let's go eat first, then I'll take you to buy some clothes."
"No need," Yang Chen said, "I have plenty of clothes at home."
"What? You think I can't even buy you clothes? Do you really have to be so clear-cut with me?" Wei Xueqing stared at Yang Chen.
Yang Chen was stunned, lowered his head slightly, and fell silent.
The student next to him saw this scene and laughed, "President Wei, you and your boyfriend are so funny."
Hearing this, Wei Xueqing's face turned red instantly, looking very nervous and at a loss, not knowing where to put her hands and feet, even her smile was awkward.
Ding Yutong quickly pulled the student and whispered, "Don't talk nonsense!"
Yang Chen frowned and said, "Your President Wei and I are good friends, not a couple."
"Huh?" The student was surprised, looking at the two, he whispered, "I thought you were a couple... Sorry then!"
The elevator reached the first floor.
As they exited the elevator, Yang Chen said calmly, "Forget it, let's just eat, no need for clothes."
Wei Xueqing gave Yang Chen a deep look and didn't insist further.
After eating, Ding Yutong and the student took a taxi back.
Yang Chen and Wei Xueqing went to the underground parking lot, stopping in front of the Maserati Quattroporte.
"The key." Yang Chen stretched out his hand.
Wei Xueqing placed the key in Yang Chen's hand and naturally sat in the passenger seat.
As before, Yang Chen drove, and Wei Xueqing rode along.
The car started and slowly drove out, heading towards the Emperor Garden.
The two of them remained silent the whole way.
It seemed they didn't know what to say.
But Wei Xueqing felt more afraid of breaking this feeling.
She couldn't pinpoint when she began to miss the past.
Missed the times when she was alone with Yang Chen.
Missing those days when no matter how she chased him away, Yang Chen wouldn't leave.
Now, she felt like she was walking a tightrope, just a little carelessness and she would fall off the cliff.
Even now, she feared that if she said one word too many or said something wrong, Yang Chen would turn and leave without hesitation.
She didn't know when she became so humble.
But now, with the sunlight shining in, falling on her through the car window, watching the moving scenery outside and the person beside her, she felt so happy, wishing it could go on like this forever.
But once the journey starts, there must be an end point.
They arrived at the Emperor Garden.
Yang Chen opened the door and entered the Emperor Garden, seeing Chen Siyan sitting cross-legged on the sofa, eating snacks and watching a soap opera.
"Yanyan," Yang Chen called.
Chen Siyan was startled and turned to look at the door.
"Brother!" Chen Siyan exclaimed, dropping the four packs of squirrel snacks in her hand to the floor and springing off the sofa.
Then, she directly leaped over the sofa, barefoot, and ran towards Yang Chen.
Yang Chen smiled slightly, spread his arms, and caught the charging Chen Siyan, jokingly scolded, "You little brat, good thing your brother is strong; otherwise, you'd have knocked me over. How did you get so heavy now!"
"I'm not heavy!" Chen Siyan wriggled like an eel, slipping out of Yang Chen's arms and started counting on her fingers, "I just ate two bags of beef jerky, two bags of meat paste, two bags of preserved fruits, three bags of pecans, three bags of Xiazhou Island fruit, and half a bag of sunflower seeds, that's all, how was that fat!"
Yang Chen said helplessly, "Yes! You're not fat! But you're going to be a pig soon!"
Eating like this, it's a wonder she doesn't gain weight!
