Chapter 775: Chapter 774 Inconvenient
Just at that moment, the telephone on his desk suddenly rang.
"Hello!" Chen Zheng picked up the phone and pressed the speaker button.
"Mr. Chen, hello. This is President Wang. I wonder if it would be convenient for you to come over to Shengshi Group," Liu Zheng said on the phone.
Chen Zheng’s eyes narrowed slightly, "President Wang, what do you need me for?"
"Oh, it’s like this. Miss Liu Yun is having a dance tonight, and she invited me and her to attend. Both of us are male companions, so I wanted to ask your opinion..."
"Do you think I’m that kind of person?"
Chen Zheng cut off Liu Zheng’s words.
"Uh... Mr. Chen, you’ve misunderstood. We just wanted to invite you to our dance; after all, you’re also considered a distinguished guest of ours."
"Sorry, I’m not interested in such activities."
Chen Zheng hung up the phone.
He couldn’t be bothered with such a boring dance party.
...
A week later.
On this day.
All the industries under the Shengshi Group were busy preparing.
Dressed in a suit and leather shoes, wearing sunglasses, Chen Zheng arrived at the Shengshi Group building in a luxury sedan.
At that moment, Shengshi Building had already been arranged into a massive dance party venue.
The main characters of the dance were Liu Yun and Liu Zheng.
Liu Yun’s father was a vice president, and Liu Zheng was also the only son of the chairman of Shengshi Group. In the business world, they were also considered among the leading young talents.
"Chen Zheng, I just knew you would come," Liu Yun greeted Chen Zheng with a smile when she saw him.
Chen Zheng glanced at her and nodded.
He had a clear purpose for coming to the Shengshi Building, and that was to settle accounts with Liu Yun.
Liu Yun and Liu Zheng, they had actually joined forces against him!
This was an unforgivable sin!
"Miss Liu Yun, may I have the honor of dancing with you?"
Liu Zheng approached Liu Yun with a flash of white teeth.
"Of course, it would be an honor."
Liu Yun smiled sweetly.
Straight away.
Liu Zheng took Liu Yun by the hand and stepped into the dance floor.
The lights inside the dance floor dimmed.
Liu Yun, with her arm in Liu Zheng’s, swayed gently, looking very sweet.
Yet, her eyes occasionally glanced towards Chen Zheng.
She was waiting to see Chen Zheng distraught!
Unfortunately,
Chen Zheng still maintained a calm and composed demeanor.
This scene made Liu Yun angry.
"Hmph! Chen Zheng! You’ll eventually be at my mercy! I’ll see how many days you can hold out!" Liu Yun cursed in her heart.
Liu Zheng, watching Liu Yun, his eyes rolling around a few times, suddenly leaned close to Liu Yun’s ear and laughed softly, "Yun Yun, you’re truly beautiful, many times more than I had imagined!"
"Giggle! Brother Wang, you’re so bad~"
Hearing Liu Zheng’s praise, Liu Yun’s heart bloomed with joy and she couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
"Yun Yun, you’re really beautiful, and very smart too. I think, the two of us can definitely spend a wonderful night together."
Liu Zheng wrapped an arm around Liu Yun, leering as he spoke.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yun’s heart blossomed with joy, and she said in a flirtatious tone, "Brother Wang~ aren’t you afraid that after you have your way with me, I’ll turn my back on you? You’ll be in trouble then, oh!"
Liu Zheng was taken aback, "What? Yun Yun, are you going back on your word?"
"Of course! Brother Wang, you’re a pillar of our company. If you fall, our company would face a huge crisis! How could I possibly abandon you! I’ve always liked you, it’s just that my father won’t let me date."
Liu Yun pretended to be pitiful on purpose.
"Haha! Yun Yun, you’re so good, I like you a lot too!"
Liu Zheng grinned, showing off his yellow teeth.
"Brother Wang... you really are so sweet to me..." Liu Yun cooed.
"Of course! You’re my treasure, who else should I dote on if not you!" Liu Zheng said as he moved closer to Liu Yun.
His lips were almost touching Liu Yun’s lips.
Liu Yun slightly raised her head, her luscious lips tilting gently forward, moving towards Liu Zheng’s lips.
"Yun Yun..."
"Mmm... Mmph!"
No sooner had their lips touched when Liu Zheng suddenly bit hard on Liu Yun’s lip!
"Ow! It hurts! Liu Zheng! I hate you! This will not end well! I’ll make you pay a painful price! I’ll make you regret what you did today! I’ll make you pay dearly for your actions today!"
Liu Yun struggled while bitterly cursing Liu Zheng.
Liu Zheng let her go.
He licked his lips, tasting a hint of blood.
"Yun Yun! You asked for this!"
Liu Zheng sneered darkly.
Liu Yun looked at Liu Zheng, a flicker of panic in her eyes.
"Liu Yun! I’m warning you—don’t even think about playing any tricks! If you dare to pull any stunts, your dear old dad definitely won’t be able to save you! We at Shengshi Group won’t be easily bullied!"
A man resembling a security guard came over, barking coldly at Liu Yun.
"Who do you think you are to lecture me? Get lost!"
Liu Zheng sneered repeatedly, spitting a mouthful of saliva at the guard.
The guard froze. He looked at Liu Zheng, his eyes full of rage, but he was powerless to do anything.
He was just an ordinary guard, way out of his league to provoke these rich young masters.
"Yun Yun, you better not follow in your father’s footsteps. Remember he is a corrupt official!"
Liu Zheng said to Liu Yun.
"Shut your mouth! Don’t insult my dad! My dad has never been corrupt! He has never done anything to let society down!"
Liu Yun glared at Liu Zheng.
Liu Zheng shrugged with a smile, "Believe what you want."
He glanced at his watch and continued, "It’s almost time, we should go in. We don’t want the media to snap photos of us; it wouldn’t reflect well on either of us."
"You!"
Liu Yun was so angry she couldn’t speak.
She knew that what Liu Zheng said was true.
If the media caught wind of it, their scandal would spread throughout the entire Shengshi Group.
She absolutely wouldn’t allow that to happen!
"Let’s go!"
Liu Zheng took Liu Yun’s hand and strode into the ballroom.
...
At that moment, Chen Zheng was sitting beside the bar.
"Bartender, a Blue Mountain coffee, thank you," Chen Zheng said to the barista.
He had just ordered his drink when he saw Liu Yun and Liu Zheng walk in.
Liu Yun had a coy look, a flirtatious smile, an air of triumph.
"Yun Yun, what’s with you? Why do you look so pleased with yourself, like you’ve come across some happy occurrence?"
Liu Yun had just come in when Liu Zheng noticed her change and asked.
"Hehe! Of course, it’s something good," Liu Yun giggled, covering her mouth.
"Is it?"
Liu Zheng frowned.
He felt that Liu Yun’s expression was a bit odd.
But he couldn’t quite put his finger on what exactly was strange.
"Yun Yun, I see the wound on your cheek," Liu Zheng suddenly said.
At his words, Liu Yun’s face changed drastically, and she quickly hid behind Chen Zheng.
"Why didn’t you remind me earlier! It’s so embarrassing!"
She complained.
"Uh... I forgot," Liu Zheng said with an awkward smile.
He had been preoccupied with how to deal with Liu Yun and had forgotten about the wound on her cheek!
Chen Zheng glanced at Liu Yun, who was hiding behind him.
With a thought, he saw a strand of golden thread fly out from Liu Yun’s forehead and wrap around her face.
"Ah! What is happening!"
"Ah! My skin! Ah!"
Liu Yun screamed.
"Well, this is a special technique of mine! I am a cultivator and can heal wounds, so the injury on your cheek is nothing serious," Chen Zheng said with a faint smile.
No sooner had his voice faded.
"Slap!"
Liu Yun slapped him hard across the face!
"You jerk!"
Liu Yun cursed, "How dare you ambush me!"
As soon as her words finished, an invisible force penetrated her body, sealing her meridians and acupoints, rendering her unable to use any spells!
She felt weak all over, as if all her vitality had been drained in an instant!
"Yun Yun, don’t be angry! I didn’t mean to! I just didn’t want the media to catch on to my whereabouts. You know I’m a wealthy guy, which would inevitably attract lots of paparazzi. If they took your photo, they might concoct an article claiming you’re my mistress. Such news wouldn’t be very nice. So, I used this method to avoid the journalists’ eyes and prevent them from tracking me, sparing myself from losing any money-making opportunities,"
Liu Zheng said with a sycophantic smile on his face.
His face bore a false smile.
"You have the nerve to say that! If it weren’t for you, how would I have lost face? If my dad found out I was being kept by some filthy beggar outside, he would go insane with rage!"
Liu Yun said aggrievedly.
"Hehe, I’m just sticking up for you! Yun Yun, we’re friends! You should understand where I’m coming from, right? I did it for your own good, to shield you from those reporters. You really should thank me properly!"
Liu Zheng said with a grin.
