Some things must be done personally

At 8 PM, Chen Dong and the others finally finished eating.

Liao Youkang couldn't wait to go with Chen Dong to meet Yin Suwan, already fantasizing about a beautiful future and even thinking of names for their children.

"Brother-in-law, let's go quickly. The timing is perfect; we can even invite Miss Yin for a late-night snack outside."

"Alright, then we'll be going first." Chen Dong said goodbye to Liao Yourong and Zhuo Zhen.

"Wait a moment, I'm coming with you. I also want to see what those celebrities look like!"

Zhuo Zhen washed her hands, leaving the bowls and chopsticks on the table.

"You Rong, please wash the dishes. I'll be back later with your brother."

Liao Yourong stared blankly at the empty, large house, feeling a bit lonely for a moment.

Downstairs, although the G-wagon was spacious, the Gu Lei Brothers had both come. Given the uncertain situation with the Shen Family, they needed to be a bit more vigilant.

Three people squeezing into the back row wasn't an issue, but Zhuo Zhen was a woman, so it would have been best for Liao Youkang to sit in the middle to avoid awkwardness for her.

However, Chen Dong didn't expect this woman to be truly bold. She made Liao Youkang sit on the left, pushed Chen Dong to the middle, and sat on the right herself.

As soon as the car started, Chen Dong felt his right arm pressed against something soft and full.

A soft small hand gently clasped his right hand...

Half an hour later, the car stopped in the underground parking lot of Dongsheng Group. Zhuo Zhen couldn't even stand up, lying on the leather cushion.

"Gu Lei, you two take Liao Youkang upstairs. I'll take Aunt Zhuo Zhen to look around."

"Alright, Boss."

"Brother-in-law, aren't you and my mom coming up?"

Liao Youkang looked at the two with a puzzled expression, especially Zhuo Zhen. Hadn't she just said she wanted to see the celebrity? Why was she leaning back in the rear seat as if asleep?

Could it be that she gets carsick? No way, he had never heard of it.

"You go up first. Let the Gu Lei Brothers take you. I'll be there soon."

"Okay, don't make me wait too long."

The Gu Lei Brothers took Liao Youkang directly to the Dongsheng Security training room, found a small room, turned on the lights, and stared at Liao Youkang with mischievous smiles.

"What are you two doing? Where's my brother-in-law? Didn't he tell you to take me to see Yin Suwan?"

Bang, bang, bang—

Several punches landed on Liao Youkang consecutively, delivered with precision, causing Liao Youkang great pain but leaving no obvious external marks.

"Ah—" A scream erupted. Liao Youkang had never experienced such a beating before. His veins bulged on his face, twisted into a pained grimace!

"Damn it, how dare you hit me? I'll have my brother-in-law fire all of you later...

Ah, stop hitting me, big brothers, I was wrong...."

Chen Dong had drunk alcohol, so he naturally couldn't drive. But it certainly wasn't suitable here either; there were many surveillance cameras in the underground parking lot.

If someone saw anything unusual from the surveillance, he, as the boss, would be somewhat embarrassed.

Going directly to a hotel wasn't very suitable either, not to mention Peach Red was still there, and too many people knew him, leading to gossip.

Chen Dong directly helped Zhuo Zhen out of the car, walked to the roadside, hailed a cab, and headed straight for a mid-range residential complex.

Along the way, Zhuo Zhen's body seemed to have gone limp. If Chen Dong hadn't supported her, she probably wouldn't have been able to stand.

They entered the elevator, used a fingerprint to unlock the door, and turned on the living room lights.

This was a house of about 130 square meters. Chen Dong had specifically arranged for people to buy different houses in different residential complexes in Jinghai, mainly to deal with situations like tonight.

Zhuo Zhen seemed to have come alive now, passionately throwing herself into Chen Dong's arms....

Some roads, one can only walk alone; some hardships, one can only bear alone; many things, one can only do alone.

Only by personally experiencing it does one know the joys and sorrows of life!

Only by personally climbing different mountains does one know the danger of Mount Everest, the majesty of Mount Tai, the beauty of Mount Lu, and the steepness of Zhangjiajie.....

Only by personally walking it does one know what a winding mountain road is, what it means for the Yellow River to flow from the heavens, rushing to the sea and never returning.

And only by personally measuring it does one know how vast the motherland is, and how small one is.

The wide and broad path to heaven is not just in songs, but also under everyone's feet....

When the morning sun secretly crept into the room, Chen Dong slowly opened his eyes, feeling the softness in his arms. This was another absurd night.

But Chen Dong also wanted an absurd morning – after all, as the ancients said: The whole year's plan is in the spring, and the whole day's plan is in the morning.

There has always been a debate about the best time for physical exercise: some prefer morning exercise, running and practicing martial arts early in the morning; others prefer dusk, saying the air is best then; and some prefer the evening, saying it's cooler then.

But Chen Dong always exercises whenever he feels good and has time....

At 10:30 AM, Chen Dong left the small house and arrived at the office.

"Yan Ru, get me something to eat, bread and milk will do. I'm starving."

After eating two slices of bread and drinking a large glass of fresh milk, he finally felt some strength. His exhausted body felt much better after being replenished with energy.

"Where are Xu Zhen and Peach Red?" Chen Dong heard from Peach Red last night that Xu Zhen knew he had secured an investment and had booked an early morning flight from the capital.

Chen Dong naturally knew that even if he didn't invest, someone else surely would have. But since he already had this relationship with Peach Red, investing some money was fine; he wouldn't lose money anyway.

"Boss, they are at Dongsheng Entertainment. They came once in the morning. Shall I call them now?"

"No need, I'll go down myself." Yesterday, he heard Du Meiqing say that the company had signed three artists, and among them, Reba's name was very familiar to Chen Dong.

This girl should have joined Shangjia and worked with Da Mi Mi, but she was unexpectedly signed by his company in advance.

These two girls were the same age, two grades younger than him, and should be in their third year of university now.

A big star from his previous life had come to his company and signed a ten-year contract! There was also Naza; although not as famous as Reba, she was definitely a great beauty. As for the other one, Zhang Jiao, Chen Dong had no impression, so he would go see what she looked like.

In the reception room of Dongsheng Entertainment, Xu Zhen and Peach Red sat together. If one didn't know, it would be hard to believe they were a married couple; they looked no different from ordinary friends.

There were no intimate gestures, and they maintained a considerable distance from each other.

Peach Red, on the other hand, signed with Dongsheng Entertainment very straightforwardly, becoming an artist under Chen Dong. Spending some money to support a woman, Chen Dong now felt no pressure at all.

Perhaps she could even earn him a lot back.

"Boss." Seeing Chen Dong and Du Meiqing approach, Peach Red's face instantly lit up with a smile, a hint of blush and sparkle, and her eyes shimmered with little stars.

"Hello, CEO Chen, I'm Xu Zhen." Chen Dong, of course, recognized this famous actor and director. He had appeared in many works, and both "Lost in Thailand," which he was filming now, and "Dying to Survive," were huge hits.

As a homebody in his previous life, Chen Dong had seen all these movies.
