Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Only Su Chen and Zhou Wanqiu’s breathing could be heard in the bedroom.

Su Chen was also curious about what Zhou Wanqiu would think of the truth.

Would she thank him? Or…

However, after a long moment…

Zhou Wanqiu’s angry voice came from the darkness.

“You only know how to brag!”

“When you left the village, did you bring a cow with you too?”

“Hmph!”

Zhou Wanqiu rolled her eyes and ended their conversation.

She did not believe Su Chen at all.

Yao Zhenfeng?

Su Chen was already lucky enough to have met him through the Zhou family.

He said he saved Yao Zhenfeng’s life? Wasn’t this nonsense?

The Yao family from the provincial capital was so powerful. Why would they need a doctor from the countryside?

Zhou Wanqiu complained internally.

“Since Su Chen left the village, he’s picked up a lot of bad habits!’

‘Not only is he being supported by a rich woman, but he’s also not telling the truth!’

Su Chen smiled helplessly.

Zhou Wanqiu had insisted on knowing.

Now, she refused to believe him when he told the truth.

He had no idea how to handle her!

After a while, Zhou Wanqiu fell asleep.

Su Chen was speechless.

So, Zhou Wanqiu, once again, scolded him and then fell asleep.

The next morning…

Zhou Wanqiu and Su Chen finished their breakfast and went to work.

Su Chen was dropped off at his usual corner.

Su Chen walked into the Zhou Catering Group’s building and took the elevator.

Just as Su Chen was about to walk into the office, his phone suddenly rang.

He looked down and saw that Zhou Wanqiu was calling.

“Hello, CEO Zhou, what’s the matter?” Su Chen answered.

“Wait in my office. 1 have something for you to do!” Zhou Wanqiu said.

Su Chen was confused.

Why didn’t she tell him in the car just now?

However, he didn’t want to question Zhou Wanqiu.

Su Chen walked to the CEO’s office and bumped into Zhou Wanqiu, who was coming upstairs.

“CEO Zhou, why did you want to see me?” Su Chen asked.

Zhou Wanqiu opened the door and said, “Help me take something…”

Zhou Wanqiu stopped talking.

“Gao Min, why are you in my office?”

Su Chen craned his neck and looked into the CEO’s office.

He saw Gao Min sitting comfortably on Zhou Wanqiu’s office chair. Her legs were on the desk.

Zhou Wanqiu’s expression darkened.

Gao Min was overstepping her boundaries.

However, Gao Min sneered and said, “It’s nothing. I’m just checking out what will soon be my office.”

“Your office?” Zhou Wanqiu asked coldly.

“That’s right!”

Gao Min nodded matter-of-factly.

“Haha! I forgot to tell you that the old master of the Yao family from the provincial capital has come to Bin Cheng! In a few days, my brother will sign the contract with them.”

“When my brother gets the food center project, will you still be able to keep your position as CEO?”

“Wouldn’t this CEO’s office be mine? Hahaha!”

Gao Min laughed maniacally.

Zhou Wanqiu and Su Chen looked at Gao Min as if she was a fool.

Both of them had signed the contract last night.

Gao Min was still trying to show off about this project. It was a little funny.

Gao Min laughed for a while, then she slowly stopped.

She could tell that something strange was going on.

Shouldn’t Zhou Wanqiu look dejected or exasperated?

Why wasn’t she reacting?

“Zhou Wanqiu, why aren’t you saying anything? Are you in despair?” Gao Min asked sharply.

Su Chen said lightly, “Ms. Gao Min, if CEO Zhou’s brain can be sold for 10,000 dollars, then your brain can definitely be sold for a million dollars.”

Hearing Su Chen’s words, Gao Min’s face lit up.

His words seemed to make sense.

Even Su Chen had begun to flatter her.

“Su Chen, it seems like you finally understand who’s smarter here.” Gao Min laughed.

“No, you’ve misunderstood!” Su Chen shook his head. “What 1 mean is, compared to CEO Zhou, your brain is in mint condition!”

Zhou Wanqiu couldn’t help but laugh.

Su Chen was indirectly insulting Gao Min. He meant that she had never used her brain.

The smile on Gao Min’s face froze in place.

“Su Chen! What do you mean?” Gao Min asked, gritting her teeth.

“It’s broad daylight. Stop dreaming, okay?” Su Chen laughed. “If you really didn’t get that, you could visit the hospital and have them check out your brain.”

“I think so too,” Zhou Wanqiu said. “If the doctor says that using the office will be helpful to your condition, I’m willing to give it to you. I’ll help you recover!”

Gao Min was so angry that she was about to explode!

“Alright! Remember this, you two. When my brother signs the contract for the food center project, I’ll teach you a lesson!” Gao Min said angrily and slammed the door.

Zhou Wanqiu smiled in a carefree way.

In the past, Gao Min’s words would’ve frightened her.

However, she had already settled the food center project last night, so there was nothing to be afraid of.

“CEO Zhou, why did you want to see me?” Su Chen asked.

Zhou Wanqiu immediately wiped away the smile on her face.

She threw the car keys to Su Chen and said coldly, “Go to parking lot A-414 and get into my car. Bring me the contract that Grandpa Yao signed with us yesterday!”

Su Chen then realized that Zhou Wanqiu had forgotten to bring it down.

He really wanted to ask why she didn’t go and get it herself.

However, after thinking about it, he felt it was better not to cause trouble for himself.

Su Chen took the keys and went downstairs.

Before leaving, Su Chen reminded her, “By the way, CEO Zhou, Gao Min was probably in your office for a while. See if she touched your things!”

Zhou Wanqiu said coldly, “My important documents are all in the safe. Nobody can touch them except me! Now, go do your job!”

She rebuffed Su Chen, and he pursed his lips.

When they were dealing with Gao Min together just now, they were still on the same side!

Now, she was tossing him aside!

Haha!

Women!

Women like her throw men away after they’re done using them!

Su Chen went to the underground garage and grabbed the signed contract. He handed it to Zhou Wanqiu.

Zhou Wanqiu waved her hand dismissively.

Su Chen didn’t want to stay either, so he went straight to the secretary’s office.

At this moment, Gao Min was patrolling the office with a cold expression.

Zhang You, Liu Pan, and the others lowered their heads.

“Su Chen, where did you go? Did you clock in for work? Do you want your salary deducted?” Gao Min said coldly.

Su Chen said lightly, “CEO Zhou asked me to run an errand for her.” She was the CEO, so he obviously had to do what she asked.

“Are you trying to use Zhou Wanqiu to pressure me?” Gao Min’s eyes widened.

Su Chen said calmly, “I’m not doing that. However, Zhou Wanqiu has always been beating you!”

“Alright! Just you wait!” Gao Min was so angry that she turned to leave.

Zhang You, Liu Pan, and the others came forward and cheered!

“Su Chen, you’re awesome!”

“You fought the she-devil head-on! Awesome!”

“You guys are the relatives and juniors of the company’s middle and high-level leaders.

Why are you so afraid of her?” Su Chen smiled faintly.

“Our relatives are only department heads or small shareholders. Gao Min’s brother is the second most important shareholder of the company!” Zhang You smiled bitterly.

“Other than the Zhou family, Gao Renhuai has the most shares.”

Su Chen finally understood.

“Fortunately, Su Chen, you came and drew her attention away!”

“I don’t know why this she-devil was so angry just now, but she just came over and scolded us!”

“D*mn it, she was spraying saliva while she was scolding us. 1 wanted to open an umbrella.”

The others also complained.

Su Chen smiled guiltily.

It seemed that he and Zhou Wanqiu had provoked the she-devil!

Everyone chatted for a while and returned to their desks.

Su Chen sat down and flipped through some information about the company. He was bored.

Ring ring ring ring…

Suddenly, his phone rang.

He looked down and saw that it was an unknown number.

Who was it?

Su Chen picked up the phone, unsure.

In the next second…

A slightly familiar voice sounded in his ears.

“Is this Mr. Su Chen?”

“I am He Zhentian.” The called introduced himself.

Su Chen was stunned.

Why was He Zhentian calling him?
