Chapter 347: The Twin Sisters' Visit

With Cui Ziqing's reluctant gaze lingering on him, Zheng Qian returned to Yebai.

Her Favorability had already reached a staggering 95 points, which was a very dangerous signal.

Fortunately, the two of them needed to be apart for a while. He would leave her in Subei City to preside over the big picture, complete the acquisition of LIN MIX, and oversee the construction of various Shumile Group projects.

This included the site selection for the Subei branch and so on.

In short, Zheng Qian had only one thing to say: don't worry about money, spend it where it needs to be spent.

This trip to Subei was truly worth it. He roughly calculated that over a billion had already been deposited into his accounts.

Moreover, Zheng Qian had finally figured things out.

After synthesizing information from various channels, he was certain that the young master of the Shanghai Americas Club was not specifically targeting him. He had cornered the other giants besides Asia Shipping simply to maximize his own profits.

What he wanted to do was force Asia Shipping to collapse first.

At that point, he could acquire it at an extremely low price.

Although Zheng Qian did not yet know why he had suddenly decided to step into the shipping industry, he needed to take precautions. This battle would not be over in a day; it had to be approached step by step.

The first thing that needed to be handled was the situation in Yebai.

"Has there been anything going on at the company recently?"

"No, everything is normal. President Chen and President Liu heard about your arrangements and expressed their full support."

Xia Xixi came to the airport to pick up Zheng Qian and took the opportunity to report on recent events.

She hadn't expected Zheng Qian's pace to be so fast.

He had just finalized the Shumile Group, and in the blink of an eye, he had acquired the LIN MIX Group in Subei.

Furthermore, the scale was not small, amounting to a full 100 to 200 million.

It was just...

Cui Ziqing hadn't come back with Zheng Qian this time. Could it be that they had really just gone there for work?

"Have the people been invited?"

"Yes, Deng Yuqing and Deng Shuxin have both arrived."

"Good, I'll rest for a bit. Call me when we get to the company."

Zheng Qian closed his eyes slightly to rest.

Since he had already cleared things with Jin Lu, he needed to make a quick decision. The feeling from the last time he met them was still fresh in his memory; he was genuinely worried that he wouldn't be able to hold back and would end up taking both of the sisters.

If that really happened, their father would definitely want to fight Zheng Qian to the death.

It was better to resolve this sooner rather than later.

Xia Xixi looked at Zheng Qian with a rather strange expression. Thinking back on her previous misunderstandings about him, she felt a bit ashamed. She had originally thought that Zheng Qian had forced them away, but it turned out he had been sponsoring their startup.

About an hour later, Zheng Qian arrived at the Qianhe Group headquarters.

Meanwhile, Zhong Xiaoyao and Qin Xueli were whispering to each other incessantly.

"So Deng Shuxin's sister is this pretty?"

"Why did they come here? And why are they in President Zheng's office?"

"Could it be... that President Zheng likes this type? Oh my, it's a pity I don't have a sister..."

"Oh, I know. They must have seen that President Zheng is successful now and want to come back to work at the Qianhe Group." Zhong Xiaoyao slapped her forehead and sneered, "Hmph, Qin Xueli, come with me to test the waters."

Having said that, the two walked straight toward the office. They were originally rivals, but with a common enemy, they naturally formed a united front.

What's more, Deng Yuqing actually felt even prettier than Deng Shuxin. This immediately made them feel as if they were facing a formidable enemy.

"Shuxin, what wind blew you here today?" Zhong Xiaoyao handed over a cup of tea, acting like the hostess. However, her eyes couldn't help but glance at Deng Yuqing, wondering what she was thinking.

"Um... President Zheng asked us to come." Deng Shuxin gave an ambiguous answer. In truth, when she worked there before, she didn't get along well with Zhong Xiaoyao and the others; it was basically because she didn't like sucking up to the leadership. Seeing her acting so attentive, she knew it couldn't be anything good.

"Oh... so President Zheng asked you to come..."

Qin Xueli smiled thoughtfully, then looked at Deng Yuqing, "Then... this beauty is here for that too?"

Deng Yuqing nodded noncommittally.

"Deng Shuxin, I'll be honest with you two." Zhong Xiaoyao flicked her nails and said coldly, "Don't harbor any delusional thoughts just because President Zheng is nostalgic and called you back to the Qianhe Group."

"Not to mention you, even Xia Xixi hasn't made it to the top yet. If you do join, just do your work properly."

"The company has more business now. If you work under me, my evaluations will definitely be stricter."

Previously, Deng Shuxin had been in Zhong Xiaoyao's department. Therefore, she subconsciously assumed that Deng Shuxin and Deng Yuqing had come here to work under her again. She couldn't help but speak in a rather bossy manner.

"Sigh, actually, you can't blame her for being strict with evaluations. You are former employees, and everyone is watching. Knowing we know each other, she definitely can't show favoritism. Moreover, you need to keep a certain distance from President Zheng, you know?"

Qin Xueli took Deng Shuxin's hand, pretending to have her best interests at heart, "Otherwise, people will gossip behind your back."

Deng Shuxin and Deng Yuqing immediately felt a chill. They had just been wondering why Zhong Xiaoyao and Qin Xueli's gazes were so strange. It turned out it was because of Zheng Qian.

However... it did strike a chord with their own little secret thoughts. It was clearly just a matter of the cafe merger, so they didn't know why Zheng Qian had called them to the Qianhe Group headquarters.

"There's no need to trouble you two with such matters." Deng Shuxin pulled her hand back and smiled awkwardly.

Zhong Xiaoyao and Qin Xueli exchanged glances, feeling very satisfied, as if they had already gained the upper hand.

The next step was to wait until The Deng Sisters joined, then find a way to make them mess up at work and then fire them. Kick them away from President Zheng's side. Simply perfect!

"Hm? Why are you here?" Just then, Zheng Qian happened to push the door open and saw the four women looking at each other. Even though the air conditioning wasn't on, why did he feel a chill?

"Oh... we, we came to serve tea to the guests." Zhong Xiaoyao quickly stood up and said with a smile, "And we were just exchanging pleasantries. Since Deng Shuxin used to work under me, I was worried she might be rusty with the business upon her return, so I was letting her know what we are doing now."

Zheng Qian: ???

"Who told you... that I wanted her to continue in your group?"

"Uh..."

"You two go and get busy. By the way, tell Secretary Xia to bring the contract over as soon as possible."

"Yes, yes..."

Zhong Xiaoyao and Qin Xueli slunk away. Only then did Zheng Qian notice that Deng Yuqing and Deng Shuxin were dressed exceptionally beautifully today.

They were naturally beautiful to begin with and weren't wearing very heavy makeup. But their tight hip-hugging skirts outlined their perfect figures.

Especially since both of them were wearing black stockings, wrapping around those firm, rounded, and suggestive curves.

The Deng Sisters saw Zheng Qian come in. Seeing the look in his eyes, their pretty faces couldn't help but flush, and they subconsciously pressed their legs together even tighter.
