Chairman?
Zhang Yi frowned, taking it slightly seriously. He was working under Chen Xiao's name, but so far, he hadn't had much contact with Junxiao Group; otherwise, he would have known about Zhang Ziqian.

The chairman of Junxiao Commercial Management? I think his surname is Xu.
Xiao Shi, who was standing next to Zhang Yi, whispered to him, "Xu Jun, the chairman of Junxiao Commercial Management, also came from Wansheng Group. He is one of the earliest veterans."

Zhang Yi nodded slightly. The Chen family was giving him a chance. The chairman should be sensible!
Wang Rui covered his bald head. Hearing the words "Chairman," he felt a little scared and didn't dare to yell at Zhao Liang. Instead, he turned to look at Zhang Yi, hoping that he would stand up for him.

In his mind, what was a chairman of the board if Zhang Yi just spoke up?
This is the limitation of the mindset of those who get rich through connections. In any large corporation, the boss would definitely choose the senior executives over relatives.

Zhang Yi was concerned about his image, but he was also a little insecure. He knew that his real backer was his aunt, Shen Yun. Chen Xiao didn't have deep feelings for him, but fortunately, this cousin listened to Shen Yun.

Staring at Zhao Liang, who also seemed somewhat unsteady, Zhang Yi pondered. To outsiders, it appeared he was considering how to deal with Zhao Liang.

Mr. Wang and Mr. Jia, along with their entourage, stood sweating profusely to the side. They had originally hoped to curry favor with Mr. Zhang. However, in this private room, they had gotten into a conflict with the chairman's cousin.
If the chairman can't cause trouble for General Manager Zhang, dealing with himself and his group is a piece of cake.

Suddenly, a soft plop—

Everyone turned their heads, only to see Wang Rui slump down in a chair.
He was bald and already a little dizzy from being slapped by Zhao Liang. Now, upon hearing Zhao Liang's identity, he felt uneasy and suddenly felt a bit short of breath. His head slumped down and he sat down. If it weren't for the chair supporting him, he would have landed on his bottom.

Zhang Yi glanced at him and muttered under his breath, "Worthless!"

He cleared his throat lightly. "Little Zhao, right? Cough up this bottle of wine on the table. Consider it an apology to me, your friend, okay?"

Zhang Yi made a very convincing show of force. If it weren't for the fact that his cousin was the chairman of Junxiao Commercial Management, he wouldn't have let him off so easily. Giving him a slight punishment now was a way of saving face for the other party.

He felt a little strange as soon as he said it. Why did Xu Jun's cousin have the surname Zhao? Did he take his mother's surname?
Hearing Zhang Yi's arrangement, Wang Rui, though unwilling, dared not object. This was Zhang Yi helping him vent his anger; if it were him, upon hearing that Junxiao was the chairman of the board, he would have already knelt before him, and wouldn't dare cause trouble. Therefore, he gave Zhang Yi a grateful look; his efforts to curry favor these past two days hadn't been in vain. Then he looked at Zhao Liang, waiting for him to bow his head.

Zhao Liang was stunned when he heard this arrangement. How could it be so strikingly similar? That same Mr. Zhang had punished him in the same way last time, and later, his cousin Zhao Hui forced him to drink a whole bottle of wine.

The scene actually happened again today, except this time it was General Manager Zhang, not General Manager Zhang.

After hesitating for a moment, he looked at Zhang Yi and said, "Mr. Zhang, I... I can't hold my liquor."

Oh--

Zhang Yi laughed out loud, "What does this have to do with me? I'm punishing you, and it only works if you can't hold your liquor. If you could hold your liquor, wouldn't this be a reward for you?"

Zhao Liang said, somewhat aggrieved, "Mr. Zhang, listen to this! He was the one who insulted me first. He called me 'Grandpa'!"

Mr. Wu and his group entered later. He was anxious, but knew he had no say in front of Mr. Zhang. Hearing Zhao Liang say that Wang Rui had insulted his uncle, he thought to himself, "His second uncle is Mr. Zhao's father and Mr. Chen's father-in-law."

Zhang Yi's voice was even colder, "So what? I've already given you enough face, don't push your luck."

Zhao Liang was pale. If he didn't drink, he might offend Zhang Yi, and he was a little scared. But if he did drink, with his alcohol tolerance, he'd be sent straight to the hospital!

Seeing the tense atmosphere, General Manager Wu finally stepped forward and pleaded with Zhang Yi, "General Manager Zhang, please be magnanimous. Zhao Liang can't hold his liquor."

Zhang Yi glanced at him coldly before turning his face away. He said nonchalantly, "The chairman's favorite, is that it? Ha—" That "ha" was nothing short of divine contempt!

Mr. Wu blushed, knowing that the other party didn't even think much of him. But to protect his boss, he was determined to finish his sentence: "Mr. Zhang, our chairman will be arriving soon, won't he?"

He didn't finish his sentence, but Zhang Yi understood his meaning. Turn hostility into friendship? Chairman?
That works too. I originally thought Zhao Liang, even if he was the chairman's cousin, was just a nobody. Making the chairman bow down in front of me would be a real show of respect!
The people from Junxiao Commercial Management were all taken aback when they heard this. The chairman had arrived? Unlike Zhang Yi and the other outsiders, they were unaware of the recent personnel changes at Junxiao Commercial Management.

Just a few days ago, it was announced that Zhao Hui would be the chairman of the Junxiao Plaza project. Since Zhao Liang also shares the surname Zhao, they immediately recognized him as Zhao Hui's cousin. The presence of General Manager Wu further confirmed this!
Chairman Zhao Hui, they've met him before. He's a typical arrogant and haughty person. Although he's fairly approachable, the arrogance that emanates from him can be felt even from a hundred meters away.

Indeed, he achieved success at a young age. He became the chairman of Junxiao Plaza before the age of 30, making him a super-powerful figure in the national business world, with every reason to be arrogant. Furthermore, it's rumored that he has connections at the top of the Junxiao Group, though they don't know the nature of those connections.

But this Mr. Zhang Yi, his connections are also within Junxiao Group. He's the boss's cousin, which puts him at the very top. No matter how strong Mr. Zhao's connections are, they can't compare to his.

"Come over right away, that's fine. Let him come. I'll give him a chance to deal with his cousin himself!"

Zhang Yi smiled, finding it more satisfying to show off in front of the chairman. He believed that the so-called chairman, knowing he was Chen Xiao's cousin, would definitely bow down to him.

Xiao Shi was also a little excited. Working with Boss Zhang felt more prestigious than working with his cousin. His cousin was quite polite to the people at Junxiao Business Management, unlike Boss Zhang, who didn't even respect the chairman.

Mr. Wu breathed a sigh of relief. He felt that with Zhao Hui's arrival, and both sides being relatives of Mr. Chen, as long as they revealed their identities to each other, the matter would definitely be resolved.

Just then, his phone received a message. He picked it up and glanced at it; it was from Zhao Hui. He had already entered the private room but didn't see General Manager Wu.

Mr. Wu quickly edited a message and sent it out, then asked Zhang Yi as if seeking instructions: "Mr. Zhang, our chairman is here. I've sent him the private room number, he'll be right over!"

Zhang Yi sat upright in the chair, took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth. Wang Rui quickly came over and lit it for him.

“Let him come—” Zhang Yi crossed his legs and said to Wang Rui, “He’s the chairman, after all. Apologize and let this kid drink half a bottle, and this matter will be over.”

Wang Rui quickly replied, "Yes, yes!"

If Zhang Yi hadn't been there, Wang Rui wouldn't have dared to pursue the matter further, given the other party's status. After all, he was the one who started the argument by insulting the other party first.

Perhaps thinking Wang Rui was sensible, Zhang Yi blew a smoke ring and said, "How about this, let this chairman have a drink with you later, and let bygones be bygones!"

"President Zhang, it's all up to you!" Wang Rui's face was beaming. The chairman of Junxiao Commercial Management Company personally toasted him and apologized. He could brag about this for the rest of his life.

Zhao Hui and his group arrived very quickly.

As the door to the private room opened, Zhang Yi and everyone inside looked towards the entrance!

The staff at Junxiao Commercial Management exclaimed in surprise, "President Xu! President Zhao!"

Aside from Mr. Wu's group, Mr. Wang and Mr. Jia, knowing Zhao Hui was there but unaware that Chairman Xu Jun was also present, hurriedly went forward to greet him. "Let's talk later, I need to take care of some matters first!" Zhao Hui nodded slightly, then looked at Zhang Yi, who was sitting in the main seat, and greeted him, "Mr. Zhang?"

Zhang Yi looked at the two who entered with suspicion. He had always thought Zhao Liang was Xu Jun's cousin. Now it seemed there was more to the story.

"you are?"

"I am Zhao Hui!"

Zhang Yi noticed that this handsome young man named Zhao Hui was extremely confident when facing him. He didn't seem afraid of him at all, while Chairman Xu Jun was much more polite when greeting him.

Zhao Hui?

Zhang Yi pondered the name, then looked at the restaurant waiter—Zhao Liang. Hmm, that makes sense now!
At this moment, General Manager Wu stepped forward and introduced, "General Manager Zhao is the chairman of our Junxiao Plaza project—"

"So that's how it is. He's not even the chairman of Junxiao Commercial Management, just the chairman of a subsidiary brand." Zhang Yi's contempt deepened, and he didn't even stand up. Pointing at Zhao Liang, he said, "I'll let your cousin drink half a bottle of baijiu, you don't mind, do you?"

He was confident that someone of Zhao Hui's status would not dare to disobey him.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Hui didn't answer him first, but instead looked at Zhao Liang: "Tell me what happened?"

Zhang Yi frowned, displeased. "What do you mean? My words don't carry weight? You need to ask what's going on. If you're in the right, do you want to reason with me?"

Zhao Liang has now found his pillar of support. He knows Zhao Hui's position with President Chen, and with Zhao Hui here, he is safe.

The situation was quickly explained without fabricating any details.

Upon hearing that Wang Rui had bullied and insulted Zhao Liang, Zhao Hui's face turned cold. He looked at Wang Rui and said, "You've got some nerve—"

Wang Rui felt a chill run down his spine after being swept by Zhao Hui's cold gaze, and he instinctively shrank back.

Zhang Yi's face turned cold: "President Zhao, it seems you're not planning to give me this face?"

Zhao Hui looked at him helplessly. No matter what, he was President Chen's cousin, and he really couldn't go too far!
"Mr. Zhang, may I speak to you privately?" Zhao Hui didn't want too many people to know about his relationship with Mr. Chen, especially since there were many unfamiliar faces in the private room. He wanted to call Zhang Yi aside and reveal his identity in private.

Zhang Yi had no idea what was going on and sneered, "No need, just say what you have to say. There's nothing you can't say to others!"

Zhao Hui frowned. This cousin was a bit difficult to deal with. It seemed he'd have to find a way to resolve the conflict later.
"Alright, Mr. Zhang. Your friend was in the wrong first in today's situation. Therefore, he must give Zhao Liang a sincere apology; otherwise, we will not let this go so easily."

"That's all for today. Mr. Zhang, let's get together again another time."

His meaning was clear. "I'll give you face, Mr. Zhang. As for Wang Rui, who does he think he is, daring to insult the Zhao family? If Mr. Zhang weren't here, he would have already had his bodyguards grab Wang Rui and teach him a lesson!"
Ok?
Zhang Yi's face turned cold. Not only did they not give him face, but they also wanted to teach Wang Rui a lesson? Who gave them the guts?
"Mr. Zhao, you're quite arrogant!" he sneered.

Zhao Hui suppressed his temper and said with a smile, "President Zhang, we've been bullied today. There should always be a reason for everything!"

"Reason?" Zhang Yi scoffed.

Then he looked around and said, "My words are the truth. Who agrees? Who disagrees?"

Zhao Hui was about to vomit. How could President Chen, such a low-key person, have such an arrogant and unreliable cousin? Even if they weren't related, was it appropriate for him to be so disrespectful in front of Jun Xiaoshang?

Aside from Xiao Shi and Wang Rui, who were his men, everyone else present was from Junxiao Business Management. Who would dare to challenge Zhang Yi? Torn between the big boss's cousin and their own boss, their biggest regret was showing up here today.

I had already made the acquaintance of the big boss's cousin, which was a fantastic opportunity. And tonight, with General Manager Xu and General Manager Zhao having dinner here, being able to offer them a toast would also be an incredible stroke of luck.

But if a conflict arises between these two sides, I'll be in a very awkward position!

Zhao Hui had no interest in arguing with him like a child. He said to Zhao Liang, "You shouldn't stay here either, come with me—"

After saying that, he called to Mr. Wu and the others, "Let's go eat—"

Mr. Wu and the others naturally followed Mr. Zhao closely.

"Just like that, you left?" Zhang Yi was surprised that Zhao Hui was so bold as to not take him seriously at all.

Zhao Hui turned around and smiled: "I almost forgot—"

Then he waved towards the door, and two burly men entered. "General Manager Zhao!"

Zhao Hui pointed at Wang Rui inside: "Drag this guy out and slap him 20 times to teach him a lesson for his foul mouth—"

After saying that, he left the private room without looking back. He thought to himself, "Am I picking up Mr. Chen's habit of slapping people?"

"How dare you?" Zhang Yi roared, standing up abruptly!

Unfortunately, Zhao Hui didn't linger and went straight out. The two burly men were bodyguards assigned to Zhao Hui by the Blue Star Guardians, and naturally only obeyed his orders.

They didn't care who Zhang Yi was. They went up to Wang Rui, who was trembling like a chicken with a plague, and grabbed him. Without saying a word, they started slapping him hard across the face!

Everyone in the room immediately held their breath. This CEO Zhao is too arrogant!

Zhang Yi was trembling with rage. After the burly men slapped Wang Rui across the face, tossed him aside, and swaggered away, Zhang Yi picked up a cup from the table and smashed it on the floor with a loud crack!

"You surnamed Zhao, I swear I'll never let you go!" (End of Chapter)
