132: Chapter 132 Zhao Hui Resigns

Sitting at the dining table, Chen Cheng paused, looking at Tian Xiaohui.

Why is she here?

"Senior Brother, who is this beauty?"

Xie Zhiyuan immediately beamed; it seemed that his move to keep Tian Xiaohui here hadn't been a mistake.

"This is Xiaohui, your sister-in-law's cousin."

Cousin? Chen Cheng was dumbfounded; had Tian Xiaohui been rewritten as Shen Jing's cousin?

"Come, Xiaohui, let me introduce you. This is Chairman Chen of Company Name."

Xie Zhiyuan introduced him enthusiastically above the table, while under the table, Shen Jing wasn't idle either, occasionally brushing against Scum Cheng's pant leg, seducing him wildly.

This woman was truly crazy; she didn't care at all that Xie Zhiyuan might see.

Or perhaps Xie Zhiyuan didn't mind at all?

Scum Cheng's expression remained normal, and he smiled at Tian Xiaohui, "I didn't expect such a coincidence with a beauty like you."

Tian Xiaohui had a rough understanding of Chen Cheng and was very reserved. She sat upright, nodded with a smile at Chen Cheng, and said, "Hello, Chairman Chen. I didn't expect to meet you at my cousin's house either. It's a great honor to meet you."

As she spoke, Tian Xiaohui wore a bright smile, stood up, and extended her hand to Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng smiled and gently shook Tian Xiaohui's small, smooth hand, "No need for formalities, just call me by my name."

Xie Zhiyuan was still puzzled, but Shen Jing, sitting next to Tian Xiaohui, stared at their hands, her expression tightening as she raised her glass toward Chen Cheng.

She then looked at Xie Zhiyuan, "Chairman Chen is visiting our home for the first time. Old Xie, let's toast Chairman Chen together."

Xie Zhiyuan was still a bit confused but echoed her sentiment, raising his glass with a bright smile, "Junior Brother, your sister-in-law is right. As the hosts, we really should toast you. You are welcome to visit our home often."

Tian Xiaohui also raised her glass. Chen Cheng smiled, picked up his glass, "Senior Brother, you're too polite," he said, scanning the sumptuous meal on the table, "With my sister-in-law's cooking being so delicious, I will definitely come often."

"Come, bottoms up," Xie Zhiyuan greeted.

After everyone put down their glasses, Xie Zhiyuan finally asked, "Junior Brother, did you and Xiaohui know each other before?"

Chen Cheng shook his head, "We just met by chance once; we don't know each other."

Shen Jing spoke up, "Xiaohui's boyfriend is from Shenmao Bank. They ran into Chairman Chen during a dinner gathering."

"Oh? That really is fate," a look of disappointment flashed across Xie Zhiyuan's face.

It hadn't even started yet, and already a boyfriend was mentioned. How could he proceed from here?

Xie Zhiyuan gave Shen Jing a dissatisfied look.

Chen Cheng's mouth curled slightly, and while eating, he nodded, "I really do have some fate with Shenmao Bank."

Scum Cheng raised his glass and asked Xie Zhiyuan, "Senior Brother, why didn't you join a bank back then?"

Xie Zhiyuan's memories were stirred, and he clinked his glass with Chen Cheng's, "Sigh, my family was poor, and my grades were average, so I had to venture into society to see if I could find a chance to turn things around."

After speaking, Xie Zhiyuan tilted his head back and downed his glass, and Chen Cheng joined him.

The conversation opened up, and the two drank glass after glass.

After three rounds of drinks and the meal was well underway, Chen Cheng was already 'unable to hold his liquor,' his eyes appearing 'hazy.'

During this time, Tian Xiaohui was urged by Xie Zhiyuan to toast Chen Cheng several times.

Chen Cheng would immediately down his drink, and Tian Xiaohui didn't dare to lag behind; after a few cups of Moutai, her face was flushed red.

Chen Cheng held his glass, "Come, Senior Brother, bottoms up!"

"Come, Junior Brother, bottoms up~"

Just as Xie Zhiyuan was about to tilt his head back and finish his drink, his phone rang.

Xie Zhiyuan glanced at the caller ID, frowned, put down his glass, and walked out of the dining room with his phone.

Shen Jing looked at Chen Cheng's state and kicked him, annoyed.

What his tolerance was, if others didn't know, she certainly did.

That year in Angel City, they had run into each other at a bar, and this stinky man had stubbornly downed a whole bottle of whiskey just to sleep with her.

"Hello, what happened? Why call at this time?" Xie Zhiyuan demanded as soon as he picked up the phone.

He had instructed today that unless it was something major, they should send a message, not call.

"Boss, Zhao Hui has resigned."

"Zhao Hui resigned..." Xie Zhiyuan jolted, the drunkenness on his face instantly vanishing, "What did you say? Zhao Hui resigned?"

On the other end of the line, his secretary Amy nodded, "Yes, the news just came out from the Shenmao Bank headquarters."

Xie Zhiyuan's head immediately throbbed; why was Zhao Hui throwing a tantrum at a time like this?

Xie Zhiyuan rubbed his forehead for a long time, thinking of a countermeasure, "Okay, first help me find out where Zhao Hui is, and I'll come find you right away."

"Understood, boss."

Xie Zhiyuan hung up and immediately called Zhao Hui, "The subscriber you dialed is powered off, sorry..."

Xie Zhiyuan paced back and forth anxiously, glanced at Chen Cheng who was already slumped on the table, and walked into the dining room.

Seeing Xie Zhiyuan enter, Shen Jing hurriedly controlled her joyful expression and asked with concern, "What's wrong?"

Scum Cheng was doing some foot-adaptation training for her.

This kind of bed play right in front of his face gave Shen Jing an unprecedented thrill.

"Zhao Hui has resigned."

"Zhao Hui resigned?" Hearing this news, Shen Jing's expression also changed. Zhao Hui was a key figure in the Changtan project, and this involved their money bag.

Xie Zhiyuan nodded heavily, "I have to go find him. I need to persuade him to withdraw his resignation letter before the headquarters approves it."

"Everything was fine, why would he resign?" Shen Jing frowned, closing her legs to clamp down on that mischievous foot.

"The reason doesn't matter anymore," Xie Zhiyuan shook his head, "Come, let's help Chen Cheng into the guest room to rest."

As he spoke, Xie Zhiyuan walked up to Chen Cheng, grabbed his arm, and placed it over his shoulder.

Shen Jing and Tian Xiaohui also came over to help, and the three of them supported the 'unconscious' Chen Cheng into the bedroom.

During this, Chen Cheng kept muttering, "Senior Brother, come, bottoms up! Sister-in-law, come, bottoms up!"

After tossing Chen Cheng onto the bed, Xie Zhiyuan called out, "Go tell his Bodyguard in a bit. I'm going to find Zhao Hui first," and turned to leave.

Hearing the door close, Shen Jing glanced at Tian Xiaohui, who was bringing in water.

"Xiaohui, go tell Chairman Chen's Bodyguard that Chairman Chen has had too much to drink and will be resting here for the night, so they can make their own arrangements."

"The long car at the gate?"

Shen Jing nodded, "Yes, go. Then, you head back too. Don't forget what I told you."

Tian Xiaohui looked at the sleeping Chen Cheng and then worriedly at Shen Jing, "Sister, will you be okay on your own?"

Shen Jing waved her hand.

After Tian Xiaohui left the guest room, Scum Cheng immediately woke up and pulled Shen Jing into the bed.

"Are you trying to get us killed? There's still someone in the house," Shen Jing shyly slapped Scum Cheng.

Scum Cheng chuckled, "Didn't I just send them away?"

As he spoke, he kissed Shen Jing's red lips.

Before long, Shen Jing was feeling lost in passion.

"Hoo~"

After a while, Shen Jing, having gradually adjusted, regained a bit of clarity and asked, "What's this about Zhao Hui resigning?"

"How would I know?"

"You definitely know," Shen Jing turned over.

"Damn it, be gentle!"

"Hmph, if you won't say it, I'll punish you properly..."

Chen Cheng rolled his eyes at her; this woman was truly insatiable, "Aren't you afraid he'll come back?"

Shen Jing shook her head indifferently, "At this hour, he won't be coming back."

"Doesn't that mean we can fight until dawn?"
