Chapter 275: Chapter 194: Mr. Chen’s Thoughts Are Hard to Guess_4
Zhang Zhenchao felt a chill in his heart upon hearing this; Chen Cheng was watertight, and he found no angle to work from!
He looked at Tong Jialu for help, hoping she would say a word in his favor.
Tong Jialu caught Zhang Zhenchao’s glance and secretly chuckled to herself, pretending not to see and continued to eat her meal.
Zhang Zhenchao’s eyes spun rapidly, thinking of other options at this moment.
"Mr. Chen, please continue drinking, I need to send a message to my wife," he said with a sheepish smile. "You know how it is, marriage means less freedom."
"Okay."
Zhang Zhenchao left the private room and after closing the door, he first called Chen Jin.
"Hello?"
Zhang Zhenchao: "Lao Chen, you’ve got to help me!"
"What’s up?"
After listening to the whole story, Chen Jin was also stunned.
However, in the business world, there are no absolute friends, especially for Chen Jin, who actually hoped Tong Jialu would fail to get the materials from Dao Fu Wealth Management so that he could swoop in.
After all, Chen Jin had long made it clear he didn’t want to continue the rule of taking turns to feast.
"I haven’t given anything to Mr. Chen either, have I? Everyone saw what happened last time at Wanbao Hall!" Chen Jin feigned ignorance.
Zhang Zhenchao took a deep breath, "Alright, I’ll think of something else. Let’s grab a drink some other time!"
"Sure thing, you set the time and I’ll pick the place."
After hanging up, he called Wen Shulin.
"Chairman Wen, it’s Lao Chen!"
"What’s the matter?"
Zhang Zhenchao repeated his story, "Chairman Wen, you should know what Mr. Chen likes, right?"
Wen Shulin did not know why Chen Cheng acted this way but could barely contain her laughter, "Look at you, Lao Chen, inviting Mr. Chen to dine alone, and you didn’t invite me?"
"It was last minute and I didn’t think I’d make it! I waited in the private room for over an hour before he showed up!"
Zhang Zhenchao, considering the contract was already signed, said, "Why don’t you come over? We’re all friends, and maybe you could put in a good word for me?"
Wen Shulin was silent for a moment; she wanted to see Chen Cheng, particularly after what had happened the night before, her heart itched like a cat’s scratch.
"Okay."
Zhang Zhenchao was thrilled, "Where are you? I’ll send the driver to pick you up."
"No need, coming and going is a waste of time," Wen Shulin responded. "Just send me the location; I’ll come over shortly."
"Thanks, Chairman Wen! I owe you one!"
Wen Shulin replied with a laugh, "We’re friends; I’ll help if I can."
Zhang Zhenchao sent the meeting location to Wen Shulin before returning to the private room.
He rejoined Chen Cheng without mentioning Wen Shulin’s forthcoming visit. "Mr. Chen, let’s have another drink."
Chen Cheng covered his cup, "No more drink for now. I had too much just yesterday."
"Alright, alright, then I won’t insist," Zhang Zhenchao said with a smile. "You stick with tea; they can have the booze."
Liu Jie immediately stood up with a glass in hand, "Mr. Chen, it’s my first time meeting you; I hope for your guidance in the future!"
He had not expected the recently high-profile Mr. Chen to be so young before meeting him.
Zhang Zhenchao whispered, "Mr. Chen, this is my brother-in-law."
Chen Cheng laughed, "Is Dao Fu also full of nepotism?"
Zhang Zhenchao chuckled, "These days, it’s the nepotism that’s reliable! Otherwise, bring in some interns, and you’ll have endless news!"
Chen Cheng teased, "Lao Zhang, that sounds rather pointed! I should remember that and mention it to Chairman Wen."
"No, no, all just joking!" Zhang Zhenchao was all smiles.
He paused and then probed again, "If you were unhappy with the intern from last time, what about that female celebrity?"
Chen Cheng asked nonchalantly, "Celebrity? Who’s that?"
