Chapter 608 I'm incredibly audacious
Zhao Cheng hadn't mentioned being bullied, so Cha Lan hadn't even noticed. He was completely taken aback by Zhao Cheng's statement that he could influence Junxiao Group, and now, seeing the person Zhao Cheng had caused trouble for, Cha Lan gasped in shock.
He recognized the beautiful woman; wasn't she the one he'd bumped into in the elevator with President Chen when they went to dinner on the 28th floor of the Yunfeng Building? She knew President Chen. Thinking this, Cha Lan quickly turned to look at Chen Xiao, finding him with one hand in his pocket, a faint smile on his face, seemingly looking at something unimportant. But Cha Lan knew him well and knew President Chen was angry.
Damn it, this son of a bitch dares to mess with a beautiful woman like President Chen. He really doesn't know the meaning of death. If he doesn't stand up for his family, who knows what trouble he'll get into in the future.
At this moment, President Chen remained silent, clearly observing how the situation would be handled.
Cha Lan stepped forward, and Qin Yun saw him clearly. She recognized him as the man she'd bumped into in the elevator with Chen Xiao that day; he seemed quite familiar with Chen Xiao. Strange, how could the big boss of Zhifei Aerospace be so familiar with a salesman?
"Miss, I apologize on behalf of Zhao Cheng. Rest assured, I will give you a satisfactory result in this matter."
Then he turned his head and pointed at Mr. Zhang, "Mr. Zhang, right? Can you tell me what just happened?"
Mr. Zhang was also confused, unable to figure out what Mr. Cha was up to. He didn't seem like the kind of person who would side with what was right and not his own. On the contrary, based on his understanding, Mr. Cha was someone who would protect his own.
When questioned, he could only recount the entire situation in detail, from Qin Yun's frantic search for orders with no one paying attention, to Zhao Cheng's help in persuading everyone to give her face, and then to Qin Yun hitting Zhao Cheng, after which the entrepreneurs all expressed their intention to boycott Feiyun Technology Co., Ltd.
Chen Xiao watched silently. Cha Lan had come forward, so let him handle it. That guy dared to bully people outside using the Junxiao Group's name, so he would definitely not let him off. He had already prepared to deal with him when he was bragging to Xie Xiaoxiao.
"Hey, your boss is actually a pretty nice guy."
When Chen Xiao saw Xie Xiaoxiao coming to his side, he thought, "My boss?" Then he realized she meant Cha Lan, and almost forgot that he was playing the role of Cha Lan's assistant tonight.
“How come you see?”
Of course, Chen Xiao understood Xie Xiaoxiao's meaning; she was simply saying that Cha Lan could stand on the side of justice and righteousness, even at the cost of his own family. But Chen Xiao knew Cha Lan; he might be loyal to him, but it wouldn't be fair to call him a good person. This old guy was ruthless; he was capable of anything, a typical ruthless and ambitious character.
If Chen Xiao hadn't been here today, it's uncertain who he would have sided with. However, Chen Xiao knew one thing: this Zhao fellow dared to use the Junxiao Group's name without Chen Xiao's knowledge. He would absolutely not allow it. Even his relationship with Chen Xiao was kept secret. Apart from his mistress Zhang Yan, who had met Chen Xiao, even his wife was unaware of it.
As expected, Xie Xiaoxiao praised Cha Lan at length. Meanwhile, Cha Lan, having heard General Manager Zhang's explanation, said to Qin Yun, "General Manager Qin, if you think highly of me, Cha Lan, Zhifei Aerospace would like to establish a cooperative relationship with you. From now on, all the business you can handle will be handed over to you. And rest assured, all payments will be made in advance—"
A glimmer of hope? Qin Yun was overwhelmed with happiness; how could such a wonderful thing happen?
The onlookers were also puzzled. Even if President Cha felt that his brother-in-law was wrong to bully others, given his status, apologizing would be a huge favor to Qin Yun. Was it necessary to give her this kind of business and this kind of payment method? Immediately, everyone looked at Qin Yun with envy. With the support of Zhifei Aerospace, it wouldn't be long before Qin Yun's company soared to new heights.
"What are your conditions?"
Qin Yun was also scared by Zhao Cheng. There is no such thing as a free lunch in this world. The conditions offered by Zhao Cheng were too good for her to believe. At this time, she searched everywhere and found that the only person she could trust in the place was Chen Xiao. She hoped that Chen Xiao could give her some advice.
They finally found her. Chen Xiao was in the crowd, talking with the pretty female car model who had spoken up for her earlier.
Birds of a feather flock together. And it's true, that car model has a chivalrous spirit; she's like Chen Xiao. She called out joyfully, "Chen Xiao—"
Chen Xiao, who was talking to Xie Xiaoxiao, was suddenly called out by name and looked up. Cha Lan was also startled. The only person who would dare to call President Chen by his name was probably his woman. He became even more nervous and, looking at Zhao Cheng standing there dumbfounded, couldn't help but slap him again: "You bastard!"
what--
Another murmur rippled through the crowd. It turned out that Zhao Cheng wasn't well-liked by President Cha. He used to boast that President Cha had risen to power because of him, Zhao Cheng, and that without the Zhao family's support, President Cha wouldn't be where he is today.
Zhao Cheng covered his face, staring at Cha Lan in disbelief, not daring to utter a sound. He knew his reputation in the industry was likely ruined. He thought bitterly, "That old man, he really did keep a mistress outside, and now his mind is completely elsewhere. He rarely even asks about the son his sister had. Humph, don't blame me for being ruthless, you forced me to this. Now, things should be done, right? Let's see how you cry later."
Chen Xiao smiled at Xie Xiaoxiao and said, "She called me, I'll go over there."
Xie Xiaoxiao then realized that Chen Xiao and Qin Yun knew each other, and whispered, "Be careful, that person is your boss's brother-in-law. No wonder he was yelling about making you lose your job."
Someone nearby saw Chen Xiao and found it strange.
"How does this President Qin know President Cha's assistant?"
"Could it be that President Cha is taking good care of President Qin because of his assistant? Is this assistant so famous that she can influence her boss?"
Zhao Cheng also noticed. He hadn't expected that this useless assistant, who had first sided with Xie Xiaoxiao in disrespecting him, would now also have to deal with Qin Yun, whom he knew. He thought to himself, "Just you wait. I'm not so bad as to be unable to handle an assistant like you. With my brother-in-law's protection, I can't do anything about Qin Yun, but you'd better prepare to bear all my wrath."
He glared at Chen Xiao with hostility. Everyone watched Chen Xiao walk over, expecting him to go to Qin Yun's side, but unexpectedly he went to Zhao Cheng first. "Hey, weren't you just arrogantly saying you'd make me lose my job? How come you've been beaten like a dog in no time, and you didn't even dare to utter a sound? Where did your arrogance go?"
Damn it——
It's true what they say, "Even a tiger fallen into the plains is bullied by dogs." Zhao Cheng's eyes widened. He hadn't even bothered him yet, and this guy dared to provoke him first. What did he want?
Before Chen Xiao could even form the thought of dying, he was slapped several times across the face, leaving him completely stunned. The onlookers exchanged bewildered glances, wondering what was wrong with Boss Cha today, slapping people whenever he felt like it.
What kind of brother-in-law is this? He wouldn't even treat his own dog like that. Besides, how can Mr. Cha's assistant be so arrogant? Even if the boss doesn't like his brother-in-law, that's the boss's business, not the assistant's place to bully him. Even when beating a dog, you have to consider the owner's feelings. This assistant has such low emotional intelligence, he probably won't last long.
Chen Xiao walked up to Qin Yun and asked, "Did you call me for something?"
Qin Yun glanced at Cha Lan beside her, pulled Chen Xiao aside, stood on tiptoe, and whispered in his ear, "Did you just hear that? He wants to give me an order. Do you think we should accept it?"
"Sure, why wouldn't you answer? Are you stupid?" This girl smells really good, and Chen Xiao couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Qin Yun reached out and pinched him. Zhao Cheng's eyelids twitched. Sure enough, the relationship between the two was unusual. This woman was so beautiful. She might become Chen Xiao's mistress in the future. How dare Zhao Cheng, that beast, make a move on her? He deserved to die. In a fit of anger, she slapped him twice more. This time, Zhao Cheng couldn't take it anymore and lay down on the ground, pretending to be dead.
Do whatever you want, I'm lying down, let's see if you can hit me now?
"Okay, I agree. But if anything goes wrong, I'll have to come looking for you—"
Cha Lan's face twitched. They were even flirting like this! If something happened, and you went to him, wouldn't he want to kill me? Thinking this, he tried to wave his hand again, but then noticed Zhao Cheng was already lying on the ground, so he went over and kicked him a few times: "You bastard—"
Those around him were desperately trying to hold back their laughter. Zhao Cheng, who was usually so imposing, was being treated like a dog by his brother-in-law, who supposedly obeyed him almost without question.
Chen Xiao chuckled twice, "Don't worry, I'll cover for you."
Qin Yun whispered, "Then I'll give you a commission. I think he's giving me such good terms because of you. I don't know if I'm right, but I know you two have a good relationship, and you're not his assistant."
Shh—Chen Xiao raised his index finger, “A good friend is one who sees through things but doesn’t say it out loud.”
Qin Yun nodded, her face full of joy. She turned to look at Zhao Cheng on the ground, who looked like a stray dog being kicked and beaten by its master. Thinking about his arrogance just now, she felt particularly relieved.
He walked back and said to Cha Lan, "Mr. Cha, thank you for your kindness!"
Cha Lan breathed a sigh of relief. Now that the young lady wasn't angry, things would be easier. "It's my honor, my honor," Cha Lan said. At this moment, Cha Lan looked like a kind old man, completely different from the big shot who had just been standing in the center of the stage among the entrepreneurs.
The contrast was so strange. Zhao Cheng, lying on the ground, closed his eyes and pretended to be dead, as if no one could see him if he didn't look at them.
Cha Lan then said to those around him, "Everyone, I'm really sorry to have disturbed your fun. Now that the matter has been resolved, please stop gathering around."
Anyone who dared to offend him, no matter how curious they were, quickly dispersed and made sure to go far away to avoid being misunderstood by Cha Lan as being curious about Cha Lan's family's scandals.
Xie Xiaoxiao came up to Chen Xiao and said, "I'm leaving too. Talk to me again when you're done."
Chen Xiao nodded. It seemed that Xie Xiaoxiao had no one to talk to here either; her colleagues didn't seem to be on the same page as her.
Qin Yun has established a partnership with Cha Lan, and Cha Lan will send someone to meet with her tomorrow to see what Qin Yun can do and gradually hand over these tasks to her. Chen Xiao nodded secretly, indicating that it was fine and she could go about her business.
Seeing that he was being pragmatic and knew to leave some space for President Qin to have a proper chat with President Chen, he went up and kicked Zhao Cheng twice: "You bastard, are you dead or not? If you're not dead, get out of here."
People watching from afar noticed that Cha Lan had kicked Zhao Cheng a few more times. Zhao Cheng's career was probably over. "It seems like President Cha doesn't even consider Zhao Cheng a human being—"
"He's not just not human, he's worse than a dog. It seems all the resources we invested in Zhao Cheng before were wasted."
"Yes, have you noticed? Mr. Cha's assistant seems to be quite favored; he must be one of his favorites. We should take a roundabout approach and try to build a connection with him."
"That's right, that's exactly right. Let's have a toast later and get to know each other."
Just as these people were preparing to go find Chen Xiao, Qin Yun had already returned to Chen Xiao's side. "Shall we go over there and talk?"
Chen Xiao nodded and was about to move when he suddenly saw several short-haired girls rushing in through the entrance. He frowned. Why would Xiang Jun's guards be here?
Looking for yourself? No way, Xiangjun can do it with just one phone call.
"Qin Yun, I have something to attend to. We'll talk later." She then stepped forward, while the bodyguards headed towards Zhao Cheng's location. Chen Xiao was even more puzzled; surely they weren't looking for Cha Lan?
Qin Yun could tell he had something on his mind, so she nodded obediently. "Okay, I'll contact the others. With Zhifei Aerospace's backing, my business should be much easier to negotiate."
Chen Xiao walked over to Cha Lan, who was still lecturing his brother-in-law: "If you ever use my name or Junxiao Group's name to swindle and cheat people again, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Suddenly, hurried footsteps sounded. Cha Lan looked up and froze. General Manager Zhao's bodyguards? What were they doing here? What had happened? Cold sweat broke out on his back.
Several people recognized him and nodded: "President Cha! We've come to take Zhao Cheng."
Bringing Zhao Cheng? Cha Lan was completely bewildered. What was going on? Just then, Chen Xiao walked over, and several bodyguards immediately greeted him in unison, "Good morning, Mr. Chen!"
"What are you doing?" Chen Xiao asked.
A squad leader stepped forward and reported, "Madam was attacked outside, and the mastermind behind it is Zhao Cheng—"
boom--
Upon checking, he felt a sudden dizziness, the world spinning around him, and his whole body trembled like a leaf. He thought to himself, "It's over!"
Chen Xiao felt as if an invisible hand had gripped his heart, and his voice trembled as he spoke, "Xiang Jun—" He couldn't bear to imagine what would happen to Xiang Jun. His whole body trembled, and despite his 122-year-old constitution, he felt as if he might collapse at any moment.
The squad leader noticed Mr. Chen's nervousness and quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, "Madam is alright. At the crucial moment, the opponent was subdued—"
Chen Xiao breathed a sigh of relief. He had almost been scared out of his wits just now, but knowing that Xiang Jun was alright, he calmed down and asked about the details.
Zhao Cheng, now under control, yelled, "What are you doing? What are you doing? Let me go!"
Cha Lan picked up a bottle of cocktail and smashed it on Zhao Cheng's head. With a bang, the bottle shattered.
Everyone around immediately turned to look this way:
"What's going on? Why would President Cha be so ruthless towards Zhao Cheng?"
"What are those short-haired girls doing? Why do they look like they're going to arrest Zhao Cheng? What did Zhao Cheng do to make President Cha so angry?"
"If that bottle hits, his brain will probably be smashed."
Unlike before, when Cha Lan hit Zhao Cheng, none of them dared to step forward, fearing that they would be implicated and blamed by Boss Cha.
Chen Xiao said coldly, "Cha Lan, you're not trying to play the victim for me, are you?"
Startled, Cha Lan immediately knelt down. "Mr. Chen, I..."
Chen Xiao had never spoken to Cha Lan so harshly before. Someone had threatened Xiang Jun, which made him want to kill her. At this point, no matter who was involved, he would not let them off lightly.
"Ah—, why did Mr. Cha suddenly kneel down?"
"He's getting old, he's probably just angry."
"Zhao Cheng's matter is nothing to make a big deal out of it, isn't it?"
Xie Xiaoxiao, watching from a distance, also wondered, "The assistant's boss is a really good person. He had to put aside his own family for the greater good. He must be heartbroken after punishing his brother-in-law so severely. But how come the assistant has such low emotional intelligence? He didn't even bother to help him up."
Qin Yun was speaking with a business owner when, after reviewing the information, she personally announced that Zhifei Aerospace would be cooperating with Feiyun Technology Co., Ltd. in all aspects. Everyone present immediately changed their attitude towards Feiyun Technology; with Zhifei Aerospace's support, the company's development would soon be like a rocket.
Therefore, they began to take Qin Yun seriously. While they were discussing business, they suddenly heard a bang. Looking in the direction of the sound, they saw Zhao Cheng being held down by several girls. Cha Lan was holding a broken wine bottle in her hand, and Zhao Cheng's face was covered in blood.
What's going on? Zhao Cheng only offended President Qin, is it really necessary to go to such lengths?
Everyone found it unbelievable. Even Qin Yun, the victim, felt that the investigation was a bit too harsh and the punishment was too severe.
Chen Xiao ignored Cha Lan; at that moment, he had an urge to kill—he would kill anyone who stood in his way.
The chill on his body seemed to solidify, and Cha Lan trembled all over. Seeing Chen Xiao's reddened eyes, he knew that President Chen was truly enraged this time. Was his life going to be ruined by this brother-in-law?
Taking advantage of this moment, the squad leader reported the entire situation. From the moment those two deliberately bumped into Zhao Xiangjun, to Cha Lan's head hitting the ground, they truly deserved to die. That was Chen family blood, and Zhao Xiangjun at that; let alone Zhao Cheng, anyone who touched her would die.
Knowing that Xiangjun was safe, Chen Xiao patiently listened, but his clenched fists and the cold look in his eyes when he looked at Zhao Cheng revealed the murderous intent in his heart at that moment.
After the squad leader explained that they had caught the two men and followed the trail to find the person who had contacted them, Zhao Cheng was now terrified. At first, when he was being beaten, he thought that because of Qin Yun's situation, he just needed to get through this. But now that the matter had been traced back to him, he knew he was doomed.
Upon hearing that Zhao Cheng was the mastermind behind it all, and that the target was Zhang Yan—that they had simply mistaken Zhao Xiangjun for Zhang Yan—Chen Xiao couldn't help but look at the shocked Cha Lan with a touch of pity.
Indeed, Cha Lan never expected that Zhao Cheng was actually after his own child, and almost accidentally injured Zhao Xiangjun. To put it another way, if they hadn't mistaken her for someone else, Zhang Yan might have really been in trouble, since she didn't have the same level of security as Zhao Xiangjun.
Regardless of whether Zhao Cheng intentionally harmed Zhao Xiangjun, the fact that he actually put her in danger was enough for Chen Xiao to not forgive him. This guy actually plotted against Cha Lan's own flesh and blood. Chen Xiao said to the squad leader, "Leave this to Director Cha." Then he turned to Cha Lan and said, "Tell me the results tomorrow. If you can't handle it well, I'll take care of it for you—"
After saying that, he hurriedly left with several security guards. He needed to go back and check on Xiangjun, wondering if she had been frightened. As for Zhao Cheng, there was no need for him to be arrested; Cha Lan wouldn't let him go, nor would he dare to. Besides, Chen Xiao had left two bodyguards behind to "assist" him.
Xie Xiaoxiao watched Chen Xiao leave in a hurry, and pouted. This guy, we had a good chat, but he didn't even add me on WeChat. He left without saying goodbye. I probably won't have a chance to see him again, since our work doesn't overlap.
Qin Yun was also puzzled as to why Chen Xiao's expression was so serious. Before she could even go up and ask him, he had already hurried away.
The businessmen at the party were whispering among themselves, discussing what had happened. Zhao Cheng had been beaten so badly, and President Cha was "collapsed on the ground." Now, his assistant had left with those young girls who had come in.
Cha Lan stood up and said to the two bodyguards Chen Xiao had left behind, "Please help me take this bastard to my house. I want to settle this once and for all."
His voice was icy cold. After the incident was exposed, Zhao Cheng's mind went blank, filled only with the thought, "It's over, it's over!"
He initially thought he had gotten away with it perfectly, that it was all an accident, but who knew those idiots had picked the wrong target. He wasn't stupid. He had overheard Cha Lan's conversation with Chen Xiao. He wasn't stupid; this assistant was definitely not simple, or perhaps he wasn't Cha Lan's assistant at all. Even if Cha Lan were his assistant, he wouldn't have been so terrified that he knelt on the ground.
The instructions he gave to Cha Lan before he left, as well as the bodyguards he left behind, all indicate that the man's status was far higher than Cha Lan's.
Who could be the man in Jiangzhou whose status was higher than Cha Lan's, and who was also quite familiar with Cha Lan? Zhao Cheng thought of Cha Lan's relationship with the boss of Junxiao Group. When he connected the two, he couldn't hold it in and wet his pants.
He knew he was doomed; even a god couldn't save him. Dragged away by two bodyguards, he followed Cha Lan back, knowing that death's verdict awaited him.
Chen Xiao kept urging the driver to hurry up. Qin Yun sent several messages on his phone asking what had happened, but he didn't reply. At this moment, he just wanted to go back and check on Xiang Jun, wondering if he was scared.
Back home, Zhao Xiangjun and the others had just arrived. Seeing Chen Xiao stride in, Zhao Xiangjun joked, "Chen Xiao, what's wrong with you? You look like you're going to eat someone alive. Who upset you?"
Hearing this joke, Chen Xiao breathed a sigh of relief and, ignoring Xu Jia who was still standing beside him, stepped forward and hugged her: "Were you scared?"
Zhao Xiangjun immediately realized that Chen Xiao knew about this, and laughed, "Is this the first time you've met me? I'm incredibly audacious!" (End of Chapter)
