Chapter 58: So Unpresentable
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
President Zhou kept scrolling through the comments, but after reading for a while, not a single one was in his favor. Frustrated, he threw his phone down. It must be Shen Qingyue. Only Shen Qingyue and her assistant came in this afternoon. No one else dared to make a peep! Thinking of this, he was furious and decided to confront Shen Qingyue. But as soon as he opened the door, he was met with a punch to the face. He hadn’t even recovered from the previous blow, and now he felt like his nose was about to break.
“F*ck, who dares…” President Zhou was about to curse, but as soon as he saw the other person’s face, he immediately shut his mouth—it was their company’s chairman.
The chairman had a gloomy face. “You don’t need to come to the company tomorrow! No, not even tomorrow, pack up your things now and get out.”
President Zhou had been in this position for over ten years, accustomed to being arrogant and domineering. If he were to leave now, how many people were waiting to take him down? It was only now that he felt scared. He could not afford to lose his current status. “Chairman, please give me a chance. It was just a moment of confusion!”
“Give you a chance? Who will give me a chance? Because of you, the company’s stocks plummeted! Even if I sold you, you wouldn’t be worth that much! Now get out!” With that, the chairman turned and walked away, leaving the security guard to watch over him. If he did not leave, they would have to use force.
President Zhou slumped to the ground, it was over…
Chi Ming went to pick up Shen Qingyue early, his peach blossom eyes filled with a smile. “You’ve worked hard.”
Shen Qingyue glanced at him. “My legs aren’t bruised anymore! You don’t need to come specially to pick me up.”
“I want to!” Chi Ming said as he held Shen Qingyue’s hand. “I heard you played the hero today, coming to the rescue?”
Shen Qingyue smiled helplessly. “So, what do you think? Impressive, right?”
“Very impressive. Since you’re so impressive, I’ve decided to treat the hero to a big meal. I wonder if the hero is willing to grace me with her presence?” Chi Ming smiled like a blooming flower, his heart and eyes filled with Shen Qingyue.
Amused by him, Shen Qingyue went directly to the restaurant Chi Ming had reserved. The two of them chatted and laughed, completely unaware of the people around them.
Meanwhile, Qin Zhen was surrounded by a group of people. He saw Shen Qingyue approaching with Chi Ming and a bag in hand, and his expression grew increasingly gloomy.
Zhou Sui stood next to Qin Zhen and followed his gaze, naturally noticing Shen Qingyue as well. He then playfully nudged Qin Zhen. “Control your gaze. You’re divorced now, so be careful! Don’t tell me you only realized how good your sister-in-law was after the divorce? How despicable can you get…”
Qin Zhen turned his head. “Shen Qingyue is not your sister-in-law. Your sister-in-law is Wei Jiu’er! Remember, don’t talk nonsense.”
Zhou Sui shut his mouth, but his expression was complicated. As an onlooker, he hoped his good friend would not regret his decision! Besides, it’s not that he looked down on people, but Wei Jiu’er’s intentions were dubious, and only Qin Zhen, being blinded by love, couldn’t see it. Qin Zhen was truly like someone who lost a watermelon and picked up a sesame seed…
By now, most of the people they were waiting for had arrived, and they went straight to the private room. Since it was a men’s gathering, there were no women present, so they could chat without reservations.
Someone brought up President Zhou, “I heard President Zhou played with women and ended up playing himself…”
“I saw that news too, and I watched the video several times. That Shen Qingyue had been chasing after Zhen all this time, and I didn’t expect her to have such skills! That kick, it looked painful…”
“I have to say, that force and elegance, it’s quite appealing. It made my heart flutter…” Just as this person finished speaking, they felt a cold gaze sweeping over them, causing their words to catch in their throat.
The man on Qin Zhen’s right side had a cold expression and wore a black earring, his gaze mocking. “I can’t believe President Zhou would want to be with someone like her, what a sh*tty old fart, so unpresentable.”
His words directly belittled several people. Zhou Sui frowned, “Han Xu, you’ve gone too far with your words.”
Qin Zhen and Han Xu had grown up together. Compared to Zhou Sui, Qin Zhen’s temper was the worst, and he had an arrogant and domineering personality. Han Xu was even more ruthless than Qin Zhen, never understanding the concept of leaving room for others. He only knew how to get rid of obstacles completely. It was because of this personality that he had offended many people.
The reason why Zhou Sui could be friends with Han Xu was solely because Qin Zhen was in between them. It was because of him that the three of them stayed friends..
