The next day.
At dawn, the sky showed a tinge of pale white.
"Tang Yao, you... you didn’t sleep well last night, did you?" In room 201, Zhang Huimin noticed Tang Yao’s dark circles, making her look like a panda, and asked with a guilty conscience.
"I couldn’t help it; I had a nightmare."
Tang Yao feigned helplessness, but secretly she was full of complaints.
After going through such a ridiculous event last night, how could she be in the mood for sleep?
"A nightmare? What did you dream about..." Zhang Huimin asked probing.
"I dread..." Tang Yao decided to indirectly warn the two of them, and said, "I dread that a bully snatched my best friend right in front of ."
"Huh?"
Zhang Huimin blushed "whoosh" red, and instantly wanted to find a hole to burrow into.
Could it be that Tang Yao heard the noise while sleeping and thought it was a nightmare because she slept too deeply to really wake up?
No way, in the future, Ye Huan must not be allowed to "run amok" in room 201!
Zhang Huimin’s expression turned determined, then a bit embarrassed, and she suggested, "Tang Yao, why don’t I ask for leave for you so you can sleep so more?"
"All right, Sister Zhang, don’t worry about , I’m fine."
"Since it’s an opening ceremony today, but no work, once the ribbon-cutting ceremony is over, I’ll co back and take a nap."
Tang Yao yawned and got up.
Zhang Huimin did the sa, crawling out from the covers.
The next second...
Staring at Zhang Huimin, Tang Yao stood dumbfounded.
Zhang Huimin then realized, she was too tired last night and didn’t put the displayed product back in her suitcase!
Moreover, the product she was wearing was all wrinkled.
Zhang Huimin’s face instantly turned beet red!
On the side, Tang Yao snapped back to reality with a strong tug.
She hadn’t noticed last night...
These two really have so imagination!
But she didn’t intend to embarrass Zhang Huimin and pretended not to notice, heading to the washroom.
Zhang Huimin was still shafully angry, wishing she could find a hole to hide in.
So embarrassing!
Later.
Breakfast on the first floor.
The atmosphere was very awkward at tis.
Tang Yao’s gaze, carrying a hint of "murderous intent," occasionally glanced at Ye Huan;
Zhang Huimin’s shaful wrath also occasionally stole glances at Ye Huan;
Thinking that Liu Tianyun was going to help ask Ye Huan for "marriage," Qin Ya, sowhat embarrassed, occasionally looked at Ye Huan;
Liu Tianyun knew that sothing must have happened between Zhang Huimin and Ye Huan last night, and his gaze was laden with aning as he frequently looked at Ye Huan.
With four pairs of eyes all zeroing in on him, Brother Huan only felt goosebumps all over!
Especially Tang Yao’s "murderous" gaze!
Ye Huan seed to recall sothing that made him feel his face couldn’t hold itself up.
Could it be that Tang Yao woke up last night and was just pretending to sleep?
If that’s the case, things last night couldn’t be more dramatic.
However...
Since Tang Yao didn’t bring it up, Ye Huan wasn’t going to bring it up out of nowhere.
As long as he wasn’t embarrassed, then it was others who would feel awkward!
"Sister Zhang, later at the ribbon-cutting ceremony, why don’t you go up and say a few words?"
"There’ll be quite a few entrepreneurs from the Capital City attending, and they should get to know our new Vice President at Tianyun International, who is both beautiful and talented."
At the dining table, Liu Tianyun suddenly suggested.
Zhang Huimin was stunned for a few seconds, then imdiately flustered: "President Liu... this won’t work, I haven’t prepared anything."
"No need to prepare anything, just say what you feel like saying." Liu Tianyun pondered for a mont and said, "For instance, you may talk about your expectations for your design work, the company, or the future of the product departnt. If you really feel hard-pressed, just speak for half a minute to a minute; just enough for everyone to recognize you."
Half a minute to a minute?
That’s not a long ti, but if she got nervous on stage and didn’t perform well, it would be embarrassing...
Zhang Huimin gritted her teeth but was still a bit hesitant, but under Ye Huan’s encouraging gaze, she eventually nodded in agreent.
...
"Dad, is this okay?"
"Tianyun International is the first company to move into the Li Industrial Park; it must have a strong background."
"If we’re not careful and offend so big shot behind Tianyun International..."
In the Li Industrial Park, the property manager’s office in the property building.
Property manager, Cao Pi, looked sowhat hesitant.
In front of him was a middle-aged man in a suit and tie, sporting a beer belly so big that his suit buttons were about to pop.
The middle-aged man was Cao Pi’s father, the deputy director of Li Corporation’s Operations Departnt—Cao Cao.
"We’ve already gotten ourselves into big trouble."
"It’s all that damned Liu Daming’s fault; he didn’t know anything and talked nonsense, causing us to place bets against Ye Huan’s guy."
"And what happened? Liu Daming lost his money, later offended that big shot Ye Huan or sothing, leading Li Corporation to cancel their contract with Daming Building Materials, which went bankrupt. They say he’s on the run now, nowhere to be found. We’ve lost everything, even our underwear, and are now neck-deep in debt, looking for Liu Daming to repay the debt but to no avail."
"We’ve been stalling for two weeks now, and the big brothers in the community said if we don’t pay by today, our legs won’t be spared!"
Cao Cao shivered all over as he said this.
Upon hearing this, Cao Pi also shivered, showing horror on his face.
"As for Tianyun International... it’s no big deal."
"I’ve already checked it out."
"The President of Tianyun International, Liu Tianyun, is from the Liu Family, one of the four big families in Celestial Sea City. While influential there, his status is a few notches below ours."
"Who is behind us? It’s Li Luo!"
"My classmate’s big brother’s uncle’s seventh aunt’s grandpa’s brother’s wife’s best friend recently had dinner with Director Li."
Cao Cao boasted proudly.
Cao Pi also showed pride on his face, but his knitted brows didn’t relax, asking, "If Liu Tianyun’s background is just the Liu Family, how could Tianyun International beco the first company aside from Li Corporation to enter the Li Industrial Park?"
"Because." Cao Cao’s mouth curled up, and with a deeply aningful smile, he said, "From the large-scale building renovations to the procurent and placent of office equipnt, down to purchasing brooms and all those petty matters, Wang Wentao personally handled everything..."
Wang Wentao?
This is the business director of Li Corporation, soone truly in the core of the company, and he personally handled such minor matters?
How could this be possible?
Wait... it could be possible.
Seemingly realizing sothing, Cao Pi’s mouth also turned upward: "Dad, your suggestion wouldn’t be that Liu Tianyun and Wang Wentao are..."
"They definitely have sothing going on!"
"Otherwise, why would Wang Wentao, the busy operations departnt director, be so attentive to such trivial matters?"
"And indeed, Wang Wentao has the authority to propose at the company’s ministerial level etings to allow external companies to enter the Li Industrial Park, and Tianyun International naturally has an advantage with their wharf construction cooperation with Li Corporation."
Cao Cao chuckled evilly twice and said, "So, if we make things difficult for Tianyun International and force them to pay so ’fees,’ at most we’ll offend Wang Wentao. Although Wang Wentao holds a high position, we have Director Li behind us, so we’re not afraid of him at all."
Cao Pi nodded, sneering wickedly: "So Dad, how do you want to cooperate with you?"
"Simple, do it like this... and like this... then like this..."
"Holy, that’s brilliant!"
Hearing Cao Cao’s plan, Cao Pi’s eyes lit up: "This way, not only can we extort a hefty sum from Liu Tianyun to repay our gambling debts, but we can also let the entrepreneurs present know that I, Cao Pi, have a high status in the Li Industrial Park, prompting them to curry favor with and offer gifts. In the future, if more companies look to move into the park, they might jump to give kickbacks without needing to remind them."
Cao Cao contentedly patted Cao Pi’s shoulder, thinking the kid could be taught~
"Dad, I’ll arrange this right away."
"Not only do we have to extort a heavy sum from Liu Tianyun this ti."
"But also let everyone know that I, Cao Pi, am the real big shot; trying to move into the Li Industrial Park without giving so benefits... hmph hmph..."
The father and son duo, Cao Cao and Cao Pi, exchanged a sinister smile...
