Chapter 669 The "Scumbag Girl" Who Can Cook

After making the call, Chen realized he was almost at the airport entrance.

Sure enough, when people are engrossed in something, they will subconsciously follow wherever their companions go.

"what happened?"

The secretary asked.

It looks like something's happened, but it probably isn't that serious.

"It's hard to describe in words."

Chen Zhe didn't even know how to explain, so he could only shake his head and ask, "Has the car arrived?"

"arrive."

The secretary said, "President Feng arrived thirty minutes early and even sent me a message."

Chen nodded slightly. "President Feng" is Feng Zhuolin, a veteran of the retrospective movement who was in the same batch as Yao Lan and Xiang Qing back then.

Now, Yao Lanzhen is the capital, Xiang Qing sits in the northwest, and Feng Zhuolin is in Shanghai, handling all sorts of affairs under the banner of Su Hui.

After getting on the bus, Chen chatted briefly with Lao Feng, inquiring about the basic situation of the branch company.

Director Chen, a business leader with a background in government, actually has a very strong grasp of the company. He already knows the answers to some questions, but he pretends not to know and deliberately asks his subordinates for advice.

If a subordinate's answer is basically consistent with his own answer, the subordinate's impression score will continue to increase.

If a subordinate's answer differs slightly from his own, Chen Zhe won't immediately question him; he'll simply smile and deduct a point in his mind.

So far, only Song Qing's answers have been completely identical to the information Chen Zhe had gathered in advance.

Therefore, if a leader suddenly asks about things that you personally consider confidential, you need to answer carefully and appropriately.

While the vehicle was traveling on the airport expressway, Chen Zhe also called cosplayer.

Although Yi Baoyu said that he hadn't exposed the chaotic situation, Chen Zhe still couldn't completely trust her. So when Yu Xian answered the call, he held his breath and carefully discerned the tone of the cosplay girl's voice.

"Hello~"

The Sichuan girl's voice was still clear and sweet: "Director Chen, have you gotten off the plane yet? How much longer until you arrive?"

"It takes about half an hour, a little faster if there's no traffic."

Chen felt a little relieved. If that were really the case, given Xianmei'er's temperament, she definitely wouldn't have reacted this way.

So he boldly asked, "I heard Miss Yi was looking for you?"

"You are quite well informed."

As soon as Yu Xian finished speaking, Wu Yu's giggles rang out beside him.

Wu Yu seemed to be teasing: "Your Director Chen is such a smart person, where did you find such a silly, big-headed business partner..."

"Hey~"

Chen pursed his lips.

This girl from the capital city isn't very bright, but she comes from a good family.

"Don't say anything nonsense when they come over for dinner later."

The receiver carried Xianmei'er's instructions to her best friend, and then she reminded Chen, "Ask Miss Yi where she is. If she can't find her downstairs, I'll go down and get her."

"no need."

Chen didn't mention that the two had agreed to meet at the entrance of the residential area, but instead asked with great interest, "What do you think of Miss Yi?"

"Hmm...she must be a very loyal and good friend!"

Cosplay Sister will give a positive review first, after all, Yi Baoyu was helping Chen to "vent his anger".

As for her other actions, the Sichuan girl didn't know how to define them, and could only say with a charming laugh, "She must be quite an interesting person."

"interesting?"

Chen thought to himself that cosplay sister was too kind and didn't believe that Gege hadn't shown that "high and mighty Celestial Dragon" attitude, but that Xianmei was just unwilling to make a fuss about it.

"Okay, I'm not talking to you anymore."

Yu Xuan said, "I have one more dish. I'll heat it up and wait for you when it's ready."

……

I was probably lucky today. Although there was some traffic on the road, it didn't last too long. I arrived at the entrance of Huafu Tiandi at around 7:10.

Along the way, Yi Baoyu had already made five or six phone calls to urge them on.

Chen was starting to get a little angry; it was only a dozen minutes late.

Thinking about it later, I guess the princess probably rarely waited for others growing up.

However, given Yi Baoyu's status, she certainly wouldn't be waiting for Chen Zhe while breathing out cold air, stamping her feet, and feeling lonely and desolate.

She was sitting in a red, black, and white Audi, the heater blaring, leisurely scrolling through her phone. Only when she saw Chen did she roll down the window, her first words being an impatient, "This is so slow!"

Chen Zhe, seeing that she hadn't exposed the chaotic situation, pretended not to hear and said with a wry smile, "Big cities are all so congested, why don't you use your connections to widen Shanghai's roads to sixteen lanes? That would be a great deed."

"……snort!"

Yi Baoyu choked for a moment. Only someone of his grandfather's level could accomplish something like this; he certainly couldn't.

"Don't argue with me here. Save your energy for arguing with Yu Xuan later!"

But how could Gege admit defeat? She sneered and cursed, "You self-righteous fool, you don't understand at all that Yu Xian is with you for money."

Chen listened without saying a word.

He checked the directions for himself: "Ruiyuan Building A, Room 502... Let's go, I'm starving."

"I'm talking to you."

This dismissive attitude angered Gege, who asked unhappily, "Did you hear me?"

"I heard it."

On Chen's face, there was none of the sadness of being "hit where it hurts" that Yi Baoyu had hoped to see. Instead, he said without any discernible joy or sorrow, "But you must first tell me, what brings you to Shanghai?"

"I……"

How could Yi Baoyu reveal his true intentions?

The dim yellow light from the streetlights in the neighborhood cut out corners of light and shadow, hiding the unnaturalness that flashed across her face in the shadows.

"Can't I just go out and clear my head?"

Yi Gege said firmly.

"Want to clear your head?"

Chen thought to himself that he must have run into problems on his blind date, which was why he came out for a walk.

Thinking about it this way, and considering the trouble she had caused, Chen Zhe was too lazy to argue. Instead, he said seriously, "Yu Xian would never be with me for money, because when we got together, I didn't have any money at all!"

This answer was completely unexpected by Yi Baoyu!
Even if Chen listed various examples of their interactions, saying that she was gentle with me, always obedient, and remembered my birthday, Yi Baoyu could refute them one by one.

This was the only point that Yi Baoyu hadn't considered.

"real or fake?"

She didn't seem to quite believe it.

This seductive vixen, who flirts everywhere, is actually willing to endure hardship and grow alongside a boy?
What benefit would I get from lying to you?

Chen smiled, and just then the elevator arrived. He stepped in first: "No kidding, I even owed several friends money back then."

Yi Baoyu was stunned for a moment and followed her inside, but she was not giving up and produced another piece of evidence: "Then why didn't she admit to you in front of strangers?"

The elevator slowly ascended, emitting a soft "humming" sound.

Chen's gaze fell on the constantly changing red floor numbers. After a long while, he sighed softly, "That's because she was worried about affecting me. At first... she even considered using my name as a pen name for her paintings."

"But……"

Just as Yi Baoyu was about to ask another question, the elevator arrived. The door to 502 was already wide open, and the aroma of food wafted from the living room.

Did you all come up together?

Yu Xian, whom the princess considered a "typical scumbag," swayed gracefully as she arrived at the entrance to greet them.

"We bumped into each other downstairs."

Chen smiled and prepared to change his shoes to wash his hands.

Yi Baoyu glanced at the table and saw that most of the dishes were Cantonese, but there were also two authentic Northern dishes: "Chicken Stew with Mushrooms" and "Sweet and Sour Pork".

Only a few symbolic red chilies can be seen on a plate of braised beef.

However, they all look delicious and appealing, so the nanny must be quite skilled.

"Um...didn't you say that all dishes should have chili peppers?"

Gege asked with a puzzled look on her face.

Before she could finish speaking, Wu Yu couldn't help but burst out laughing.

Actually, Xianmei was just making a casual retort, but this guest from the north was so aggressive.

Hearing the sound, Chen Zhe came out of the bathroom while wiping his hands, explaining with confusion, "I can't eat spicy food, how could Yu Xian put so many chilies in the food?"

"what?"

Yi Gege stared at the "little vixen" as if she had heard some unbelievable fairy tale.
