Just as Cheng Zhuang left, Chen Bin’s phone rang again.
Though it was an unfamiliar number, he chose to answer.
Soon, a woman’s voice ca through from the other side.
"Hello, Mr. Chen. This is Wei Bailu. You gave your business card on the plane before, so I called."
"Oh, it’s you. What’s the matter for you to call?"
"I want to et with you. Do you have so ti?"
After so thought, Chen Bin replied.
"I plan to go to the Imperial Capital in a few days. Let’s et there then."
"Okay, then please rember to call at that ti."
Hanging up the phone, Chen Bin returned to room 0000 and went to bed with Wen Wan in his arms.
Within days, Cheng Zhuang found sothing to leverage from Zha Qiuling’s assistant.
Once Chen Bin learned about it, he directly booked a flight to the Imperial Capital.
Of course, he also inford Wei Bailu of the ti beforehand.
Upon arriving at the Imperial Capital, Chen Bin contacted Zha Qiuling.
He asked her to co out on the pretext of promoting clothing.
While dining at the restaurant, Chen Bin was waiting for a chance to be alone with Zha Qiuling’s assistant.
It was only towards the end of the al that he saw the assistant heading to the restroom.
Chen Bin imdiately followed her.
As Qu Lan exited the restroom, she saw Chen Bin.
She smiled and greeted him, "Mr. Chen, you’re here at the restroom too?"
Chen Bin replied, "I ca specifically to find you."
"Find ? What do you need for?"
"Your brother is about to get married, but there’s not enough money for the dowry. Would you like to help?"
Upon hearing this, Qu Lan instinctively nodded.
Her parents were quite overwheld collecting dowry money for her brother.
If his marriage could be settled, they wouldn’t be so stressed.
At this mont, Chen Bin handed a business card to Qu Lan.
"Let’s talk alone tonight, and don’t let Miss Cha know about this."
She took the card, her face full of doubt.
But for the sake of her brother, Qu Lan couldn’t afford any hesitation.
After the dinner, Chen Bin and Zha Qiuling parted ways.
Soon after reaching the hotel, Qu Lan called.
After Chen Bin gave her the hotel na, he started waiting.
Approximately half an hour later, a knock finally ca at the door.
As Qu Lan entered, Chen Bin took out three cheques from his bag.
The amounts were one for one million and two for two million each.
Seeing them, Qu Lan’s eyes widened with apparent temptation.
Seeing her reaction, Chen Bin directly asked, "Do you want them?"
"I do!"
Without the slightest hesitation, Qu Lan nodded.
"I can give you all this money, but you need to do sothing for . If you do it well, there’ll be additional rewards."
Qu Lan knew that there’s no free lunch in the world, so she asked directly.
"Mr. Chen, what do you want to do?"
Chen Bin didn’t rush to reply but instead asked her a question.
"You’ve been with Miss Cha for many years, always living together?"
"Yes!"
"Does she have any n outside?"
"No, absolutely not!"
Chen Bin placed the one-million cheque slowly in front of Qu Lan.
"I want the truth. Just tell honestly, and this money is yours. I promise not to tell anyone."
Her gaze fixed on the cheque, Qu Lan shook her head still.
"I’m truthful, Miss Cha indeed doesn’t have an affair."
"Are you sure there’s none?"
"Positive!"
Facing Chen Bin’s probing gaze, Qu Lan showed no fear.
Instead, she added, "Every day, whatever Miss Cha does, she takes with her. I swear by heaven she has no other man except Secretary Cheng."
Even knowing Qu Lan wasn’t lying, Chen Bin still couldn’t believe it.
That a flamboyant, attractive woman like Zha Qiuling wouldn’t indulge in affairs.
It seems indeed appearances can be deceiving.
Putting the cheque in front of Qu Lan, Chen Bin continued his inquiry.
"Tell , what kind of woman is Zha Qiuling in your eyes?"
"About this money..."
"It’s already yours now!"
"Really?!"
Qu Lan couldn’t believe that just by answering a question, she could easily obtain a million.
Many ordinary people may never save this much money in a lifeti.
Chen Bin then took out a two-million-dollar cheque, waving it in front of Qu Lan.
"Back to my question, make satisfied, and this two million is yours."
Qu Lan, just an ordinary person, even though Zha Qiuling treated her well.
Under the temptation of money, chose to speak her mind.
"Miss Cha is a very career-oriented woman, with no hobbies besides work every day."
"That’s not what I want to hear, describe her personality instead."
Gulping while eyeing the cheque, Qu Lan promptly answered.
"Miss Cha has a bad temper, is quite carefree, saying whatever cos to mind. Though she appears sharp and an, she is fundantally kind-hearted."
"While with her, you would’ve been scolded often too?"
"Yes, she often scolds to tears. Thought of leaving Miss Cha before, but others’ offered salaries are low, nor are they willing to teach about fashion design as Miss Cha does."
Nodding slightly, Chen Bin handed over the cheque directly.
"This two million is now yours."
Qu Lan hurriedly accepted the cheque, stood and continuously bowed to Chen Bin.
"Thank you, Mr. Chen, you’re really a great person!"
Chen Bin waved the last cheque in his hand, "Do you want this one as well?"
"I do! Of course, I do!"
Once soone experiences the joy of quick money, they don’t want to work diligently anymore.
Despite Zha Qiuling paying Qu Lan thirty thousand a month, she still wanted unearned gains.
With a slight smile, Chen Bin enticingly spoke.
"To , these five million combined are petty cash. If you can help do one thing, there’ll be additional rewards."
"What is it? Would it involve Miss Cha?"
"Indeed, it involves her!"
As the words fell, Chen Bin also pushed a pen and paper toward Qu Lan.
"If you’re willing to do it, write a receipt for two million. Just prove the money reached you easily."
Chen Bin has decided to take action against Zha Qiuling, but first, he must hold sothing over Qu Lan.
To prevent her suddenly going against him, ruining the plan, and also offending Zha Qiuling.
Facing the pen and paper, Qu Lan hesitated greatly.
"Mr. Chen, you won’t ask to do anything illegal, will you? If so, I’ll pass on the two million."
Chen Bin confidently assured her, "Rest easy, I’m a law-abiding citizen."
The lure of two million was too great, Qu Lan eventually wrote the receipt.
Adding her na and date as required by Chen Bin.
Upon confirming no issues, only then did Chen Bin place the cheque in front of her.
"When I need you, I’ll contact you. You may leave now."
Without hesitation, she rely thanked Chen Bin before leaving imdiately.
Then Chen Bin went downstairs to a café, called Wei Bailu.
Giving her the detailed address.
Soon, Wei Bailu rushed over anxiously.
Upon eting Chen Bin, she hurriedly bowed to him.
"Hello, Mr. Chen!"
Evidently, she was extrely nervous and excited at the mont.
Chen Bin gestured at her to sit, and then asked.
"Tell , what do you want to discuss with ?"
