Zhutian Films: Starting with the Story of Roses

Chapter 44 Victory Celebration Banquet

The same event can evoke two completely different thoughts.

Bai Xiaohe believes Huang Zhenhua is a good person, and this is not just polite talk, but a very serious evaluation.

But Huang Yimei doesn't think so.

She believes that Bai Xiaohe didn't like her brother, and these seemingly nice comments are actually just covering up the fact that she "didn't like" him.

Actually, neither of them is wrong; they just have different perspectives and values.

Chen Yang spoke up, trying to ease the tension that had suddenly escalated.

"I understand."

"It's all Huang Zhenhua's fault."

Huang Yimei nodded and continued, "Of course, this is my brother's fault. Nobody liked him, but he insisted on pursuing them, making a fool of himself!"

Bai Xiaohe has always been a peaceful person, only occasionally showing her stubbornness and obstinacy, but that doesn't mean she's someone who silently suffers.

Bai Xiaohe turned around and looked at Huang Yimei's exquisite face. She nodded silently and said, "In this respect, I really should learn from you."

"Next time, I'll just refuse without hesitation. But there probably won't be a next time. I'm doing pretty well with Chen Yang now, and my parents like him a lot."

She smiled and added, "Me too."

Chen Yang listened, feeling a bit overwhelmed. The conversation had just been about Huang Zhenhua, but suddenly the fire had spread to him.

Unexpectedly, Huang Yimei smiled and said, "If that's really the case, I'll wish you all the best!"

After saying that, she got up and left: "I'm going back to eat. Brother Chen Yang, you keep Miss Bai company."

--boom!

Rose thoughtfully closed the office door. Chen Yang and Bai Xiaohe exchanged a glance, and he explained, "Rose has always been like this."

"She's a girl who...loves and hates fiercely."

Bai Xiaohe looked at Chen Yang with a half-smile. She wasn't stupid; she gradually realized that Huang Yimei's hostility towards her didn't just come from Huang Zhenhua.

This seems to have a lot to do with Chen Yang.

"If Miss Huang really has some misunderstanding about me..." Bai Xiaohe adjusted her glasses and chuckled softly, "then let her continue to misunderstand."

She slowly got up from the sofa, went to the desk, patiently tidied up Chen Yang's lunchbox, and then slowly wiped the tabletop clean.

After tidying up, Bai Xiaohe wiped her slender, pale fingers with a wet wipe, as if she had just finished an experiment in the Tsinghua University laboratory.

"Let's go."

"I'll be back tomorrow."

Bai Xiaohe winked at Chen Yang, a slight smile curving her lips. She then took her lunchbox, and Chen Yang escorted her to the elevator.

She stood inside the elevator car, smiling and waving to Chen Yang. As the elevator doors closed, the smile on Bai Xiaohe's face slowly disappeared.

She muttered to herself, "I feel like a professional actor right now, so immersed in my role. It'll be very hot tomorrow, so I'll make some cold chicken noodles..."

When Chen Yang returned to his office, Huang Yimei was coming out with her lunchbox. Chen Yang treated both of them equally and ate both of their lunches.

If this happens frequently, Chen Yang will probably have a hard time working seriously in the afternoon, as he will likely spend most of his time suffering from indigestion and dizziness.

The phrase "the blessing of having multiple wives" sounds wonderful, but actually enjoying it is not something that ordinary people can handle.

In the morning, Han Ying, the assistant, took it upon herself to pick up Chen Yang ahead of time. President Chen would have to deal with the Huang-Bai dispute at noon that day, which was really stressful.

Even if he can mentally hold on, Chen Yang's body probably can't take it, since he hasn't made any real progress in his relationships with Huang Yimei and Bai Xiaohe yet.

Huang Yimei seemed unaffected by Bai Xiaohe's words. She smiled and asked, "Brother Chen Yang, what do you want to eat tomorrow?"

"I want to eat... Jianbing Guozi." Chen Yang couldn't allow this situation from noon today to happen again. He would try to arrange for the two women to eat at different times.

Huang Yimei said in a muffled voice, "Breakfast..."

She had originally planned to have her mother prepare an even more lavish lunch after she got home today, so that if Bai Xiaohe came again tomorrow, she could completely overpower her.

Chen Yang nodded with a smile.

"OK."

"Don't bother preparing lunch. You should let Aunt Wu rest at home."

Rose pouted and said, "Alright then."

After Huang Yimei left, the office became quiet.

Chen Yang examined the invisible system panel.

His keyword relevance improved again. In fact, with the help of Assistant Han this morning, Chen Yang's relevance had already improved slightly.

It increased from 19.5% to 20%.

The rivalry between Huang Yimei and Bai Xiaohe can also help Chen Yang improve his compatibility.

Chen Yang rested his arm on the desk, his fingers rapidly twirling a carbon pen. The system's intention was clearly to encourage this kind of "confrontational situation."

"Confrontation is not advisable."

"Only through cooperation can we achieve a win-win situation."

.......

Jiang Xueqiong learned about Bai Xiaohe's situation from Huang Yimei. President Jiang's encouraging attitude towards the matter surprised and confused Huang Yimei.

Since joining the company, Huang Yimei has been working alongside Jiang Xueqiong. President Jiang has always treated her very well and has carefully guided her in her work.

However, Huang Yimei did not like what General Manager Jiang had just said. After a moment of silence, she expressed her opposition.

"Why not encourage her?" Bai Xiaohe is a young lady from the Bai family, and her father is a well-known collector in our circle.

"If Mr. Bai chooses to cooperate more deeply with our Qingting Company in the future, it will be a powerful alliance that will only benefit us and will not cause any harm."

"As for asking our CEO Chen to sacrifice his looks, that's even more out of the question. After all, Bai Xiaohe's appearance and temperament are both excellent."

Why not?

Huang Yimei retorted in a low voice, "I don't think feelings and interests should be mixed up in any way."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xueqiong smiled and shook her head: "Where in this world is there pure affection? Affection without material conditions is just a bucket of sand."

"It will scatter with a gust of wind."

"Take you, Huang Yimei, for example. You come from a scholarly family and are stunningly beautiful. Do you think the men who pursue you love your face or truly love you as a person?"

Huang Yimei was stumped by this question.

Jiang Xueqiong buried herself in her work and stopped talking about the topic: "Tomorrow, go and book a private room. Our company is organizing a dinner party."

"Huh? What kind of get-together?"

"I promised President Chen that I would host a celebration banquet for him after the Sino-French exchange exhibition, but it has been delayed until now."
