"It’s good that you understand. In any case, Lu Sijia is a talented person, and our company cannot do without her at the mont. So, don’t hold any grudges against her with Little Rui. Once you’re familiar with the company’s operations and understand the ins and outs of film production, I can completely hand over the company to you to manage."
Wu ngting nodded sensibly and replied with a soft "Mm."
At this point, Chen Feng naturally switched the topic to Yang Wenqi. He ntioned the incident with the scamr bothering her, her seeking his help as her boss, and inviting him to dinner tonight.
Wu ngting tensed up upon hearing this, showing a wary expression. She had seen Yang Wenqi in person and thought highly of her talent, with first-class looks and presence. She believed that if the company invested in her, she had the potential to beco very popular.
However, she didn’t expect that Yang Wenqi seed to be trying to cozy up to Chen Feng, which made her feel uneasy.
"Are you really going to the appointnt alone tonight, just the two of you?" Wu ngting asked in a sowhat stiff tone.
Chen Feng replied with a smile, "Isn’t that allowed?"
"Of course not," Wu ngting said firmly. "You’re the company boss and a man, while she’s your artist and a woman under your managent. It’s hard not to cause misunderstandings when a man and a woman et alone."
Chen Feng nodded with a smile, "If you put it that way, it is a bit inappropriate. Why don’t you co with ?"
Wu ngting frowned and said, "You can politely refuse; there’s no need to accept her invitation. After all, you’re the boss, and she’s your contracted artist. Helping her with this matter is part of your job."
"I told her the sa thing, but she’s adamant. She said that without my help, she might have faced danger, and it’s like a life-saving favor. If she doesn’t buy dinner, her conscience won’t be at peace. If I refuse, it would an I look down on her and disrespect her."
Upon hearing this, Wu ngting frowned even more. Earlier, it was just speculation, but now, with a woman’s intuition, she could almost confirm that Yang Wenqi indeed had so intentions toward Chen Feng.
Ah! Won these days! Always trying to latch onto soone successful, hoping to get rich overnight and rise above the rest.
Wu ngting couldn’t help but sigh inwardly.
"Alright then, I’ll accompany you later."
Despite being busy all day and not wanting to go out, Wu ngting had no choice but to go along with the situation.
Chen Feng nodded naturally in agreent, "Sure. Let’s go together."
In truth, he brought this matter up because he wanted Wu ngting to co along. Otherwise, if he went to dinner with Yang Wenqi alone, it would surely cause misunderstandings, and it might also be awkward during the eting. It was better to bring Wu ngting along.
Furthermore, as the boss, he certainly couldn’t "eat the grass by the edge of the nest." Yang Wenqi was the future money tree he planned to cultivate, and he couldn’t ruin her early on. His principles wouldn’t allow him to do such a thing.
After Sun Xiaorui finished washing the dishes and ca over, Wu ngting briefed her about Yang Wenqi. On the surface, Sun Xiaorui seed unbothered, but inside, she felt a bit irritated.
Just after dealing with Hong Xiaodan, now there was an even more formidable one.
She had also seen Yang Wenqi, who had looks, presence, and a figure that were top-notch, on par with a beauty like Wu ngting and even surpassing her in youth and vitality.
She felt that it was incredibly challenging to keep Chen Feng by her side for long. Because the world was never short of won younger and more beautiful than her.
Especially now with Chen Feng being so well-off, these young and beautiful won were flocking toward him like moths to fla.
Fortunately, she currently had Wu ngting as an ally, handling things that she couldn’t say or do.
It was the sa this ti. She didn’t have the authority to question Chen Feng about having a one-on-one dinner with Yang Wenqi, let alone stop it, but Wu ngting could.
The three of them watched TV and chatted, and ti passed quickly.
Around 7:30, Wu ngting proactively reminded Chen Feng that it was ti to head to the appointnt.
So, they both returned to their rooms to change outfits and tidy up a bit before setting off.
Chen Feng drove, and it took about ten minutes to reach the place.
After parking the car and a bit of WeChat communication, they entered a seafood restaurant, went to one of the private rooms, and t Yang Wenqi.
"Wenqi, I ca along too, is that alright?"
Wu ngting entered the room before Chen Feng, greeting a slightly surprised Yang Wenqi with a bright smile.
"Of course, you’re welco," Yang Wenqi quickly recovered, placing a natural smile on her face. "You’re both my leaders, and it’s an honor to have you here for a al."
She paused for a mont and quickly added, "Actually, I had also invited a friend tonight, but she had so urgent matter to attend to, and I don’t know when she can co."
"Oh, I see. That explains it," Wu ngting chuckled, her eyes narrowing slightly. "I just happened to hear from my brother that you invited him to dinner, and I thought it might be inappropriate for just the two of you to have a al alone. So I decided to join in. After all, you’re a promising newcor in our company, and we can’t have any unfavorable rumors before your fa rises."
"Thank you, leaders, for your support and for looking out for . I’ll be more careful in the future. Please, take a seat," Yang Wenqi thanked them while gesturing for them to sit.
Chen Feng was the first to sit down, then amiably said to Yang Wenqi, "Since we’re eting in private, there’s no need for ’leader’ titles. Just call Brother Feng."
"Okay, Brother Feng," Yang Wenqi agreed easily and cheerfully.
Wu ngting shot a aningful glance at Yang Wenqi, who still had a smile on her face, before sitting down beside Chen Feng.
"Brother Feng, Sister Ting, you can start ordering the dishes. I’ll check with my friend to see if she’s coming,"
With that, she called a waiter to bring the nu to Chen Feng and Wu ngting, and she temporarily stepped out of the private room to contact her friend.
In just a few minutes, Yang Wenqi returned to the private room with a smile.
"We’ve finished ordering. Is there anything you’d like to add?" Wu ngting handed over the nu to Yang Wenqi with a smile.
"Sure, I’ll add a few dishes,"
Yang Wenqi added a couple of vegetarian dishes.
The dishes quickly began arriving at the table within minutes. Yang Wenqi winced a bit when she saw the spicy Treasure Fish on the table; it was one of the most expensive items on the nu, priced at 188 yuan a plate.
There was also a stead mandarin fish dish priced at 98 yuan. Just these two dishes alone were nearly 300 yuan, which already hinted at going over her budget. Her total available budget for tonight was just 500 yuan, and she had less than a thousand yuan left in her account with nearly a week to go before payday.
