"Oh my god, Sa Li, is that you? You actually called me? I'm so thrilled! Did my sincerity move you? I'm so excited! Oh God, I won't curse at you anymore, I must really bless you! Oh, wait, I mean, you must bless me!"
As soon as the call connected, an overwhelmingly excited voice came through the handset.
Jiang Chen, Yan Hu, Bai Lao, and Fa'erxi were all stunned for a moment, then they each silently chuckled.
Sa Li's face turned red with embarrassment and annoyance, saying, "Ni Na'er, shut up, or I'll hang up!"
"Oh, no no no, Sa Li, I'll shut up, I'll shut up, please don't hang up, it's been so long since I last heard your voice, I really, really miss you!"
Pfft!
Jiang Chen couldn't help but laugh out loud, then quickly covered his mouth with his hand. Yan Hu's face turned tomato red trying to hold in his laughter, while Bai Lao and Fa'erxi looked at Sa Li with amused expressions.
Sa Li's face grew even redder, just about to speak when Ni Na'er's voice came through once more, "Sa Li, why do I hear a man's voice? Was that a man's voice? I didn't hear wrongly, did I?"
"Shut up!"
Sa Li was furious and snapped back sharply.
"Okay, okay, I'm shutting up, you go ahead, but that was a man's voice, right?"
Sa Li helplessly placed a hand on her forehead, a whole array of black lines appearing there, as she lowered her voice and scolded again, "Ni Na'er!"
The voice on the other end of the phone fell silent.
At once, Sa Li let out a sigh of relief, glanced at Jiang Chen and the others, her cheeks blushing intensely.
"Sa Li."
The voice came through the handset again, and Sa Li's expression changed, feeling overwhelmed, she opened her mouth about to yell, but the voice continued and calmed her down.
"Are you looking for me because of Yi Chen Group's matter?"
Hearing Ni Na'er ask so, Jiang Chen was taken aback for a moment and Bai Lao and the others wore puzzled looks.
Sa Li was slightly startled, asking in confusion, "How did you know?"
"Yi Chen's director, Jiang Chen from Nine Heavens knows you and I heard you two are on good terms. I just received news that Jiang Chen led people in a brawl at Minghe Group's branch in Zhudao City, and then right after, you called me. Plus, I heard a man's voice just now, I couldn't help but connect it to the recent negotiation between Yi Chen Group and me."
A gleam of admiration flashed in Jiang Chen's eyes as he exclaimed, "Such strong deductive skills."
"Jiang Chen, if you're a man, don't use a woman for your deeds. Come to my company and let's talk face to face." Hearing Jiang Chen's words, the person on the other end directly extended an invitation, yet the tone was somewhat icy.
Jiang Chen paused for a moment, then chuckled, "Sure, I'll head over now."
"Good, I'll wait for you!"
Beep beep...
The call was hung up by Ni Na'er.
With an embarrassed look, Sa Li faced Jiang Chen: "Mr. Jiang, I'm sorry, he..."
"From his analysis, it's clear he is a very intelligent person. Usually, such people are very rational, but in dealing with you, he is... somewhat of a goofball. From this, it seems he truly likes you!" Jiang Chen said with a light chuckle.
Sa Li's face turned red again, "He really is very intelligent, and he's not a bad person, it's just... he's too jealous, and I can't stand it sometimes!"
"Haha, if you have feelings for him too, I can talk to him on your behalf. Maybe I can get him to change this jealous habit," Jiang Chen said with a hearty laugh.
Sa Li's eyes lit up, she opened her mouth and then closed it again shyly.
"Got it!" Jiang Chen smiled faintly, "Let's go meet this intelligent vinegar pot."
No sooner had he spoken than Jiang Chen rose and headed for the door.
"Young Jiang, I won't go, I will return to deal with Sanben Group!" Bai Lao also stood up and announced.
"Alright!" Jiang Chen nodded lightly.
Fa'erxi silently stood up and followed behind Jiang Chen, curious to meet and see what kind of person Ni Na'er was.
Sa Li glanced at Fa'erxi, her face blushing again, turning her entire neck red, following behind him like a shy, blushing bride.
Jiang Chen turned his head to look at Sa Li, then at Fa'erxi, chuckling, "Captain Fa'erxi, perhaps you shouldn't go?"
"I'll take a look. After all, she's a junior I highly admire, I need to help her out!" Fa'erxi chuckled as he glanced at Sa Li.
Upon hearing this, Sa Li quickly lowered her head, almost burying it into her full chest.
"Haha, alright then, I can't argue with that reason!" Jiang Chen laughed heartily and stepped out of the room.
As she walked, Sa Li muttered to herself:
Ni Na'er, if you mess up again this time, you're dead meat!
…
Kenny Corporation's Zhudao City branch.
Arriving by car, Jiang Chen and company were evidently expected, as the gatekeeper didn't stop them at all, clearly recognizing Zhou Qing's vehicle.
Squeak!
The car stopped at the entrance of the company building, and the four of them got out.
Click-clack!
A series of high heels clicking approached as a young woman in a uniform skirt suit walked out of the building.
"Miss Sa Li."
The lady bowed slightly to Sa Li and gave Jiang Chen and the other two a look-over, taking an extra glance at Fa'erxi when she noticed an old man among them.
Sa Li softly introduced, "This is Ni Na'er's secretary, Na Miya, this is Mr. Jiang Chen, this is Mr. Yan Hu, and this... is Mr. Fa'erxi."
On the car ride, Fa'erxi had instructed Sa Li not to reveal that he was Sa Li's ancestor, so Sa Li could only introduce him by his name.
"Please, Mr. Ni Na'er has been awaiting you all," Na Miya said with a peculiar glance at Jiang Chen, gesturing towards the office building.
Sensing Na Miya's look, Sa Li's heart skipped a beat, while the corner of Jiang Chen's mouth curled into a hint of amusement as he walked towards the office building.
Under Na Miya's guidance, everyone took the CEO's private elevator to the top floor of the office building.
Ding!
The elevator reached the top floor, the doors opened, and the scene outside caused Jiang Chen and the others to pause for a moment.
Outside the elevator, a dozen men in black suits stood in orderly rows, their gazes sharp as they watched Jiang Chen and his companions.
"Mr. Jiang, Mr. Ni Na'er has heard about your impressive skills and would like to ask for your help in testing whether our elite security team is indeed elite," Na Miya spoke softly.
Sa Li frowned and said angrily, "Na Miya, you're crossing the line!"
"I'm sorry, Miss Sa Li, I'm just following orders," Na Miya apologized, lowering her head.
"Sa Li," Jiang Chen called out softly, scanning the group of security personnel before raising his eyebrows and looking up at a bright spot on the wall opposite them.
A pinhole camera?
A smile spread across Jiang Chen's lips, "Mr. Ni Na'er, I really don't see the point in you arranging this."
Sa Li and the others were taken aback, they followed Jiang Chen's gaze and soon spotted the pinhole camera on the wall.
"Ni Na'er, what are you trying to do?" Sa Li shouted angrily at the camera.
"Sa Li, it's just a simple camera without audio communication capabilities!"
Jiang Chen gently reminded her and turned to Yan Hu, "Hu Zi, since Mr. Ni Na'er is so interested, why don't you join in the fun? But remember, I don't want to waste any time."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Chen stepped out of the elevator and headed straight towards the black-suited men in front of them.
