Ordinary people always fantasize about financial freedom, beautiful women, luxury cars, yachts... However, compared to all these material things, Chu Fang desires a sincere relationship even more, ...
After having breakfast, Zhong Tingyue went to her studio.
She has been busy receiving both sets of parents these past few days, and has rarely gone to the studio, mostly managing the studio's business in her spare time.
Now that she has bought a house, she feels a great deal of pressure on her shoulders.
Not only do we have to consider the house renovation, but we also have to pay the mortgage every month.
Sometimes she felt that she was quite... awkward.
Chu Fang could easily afford to buy a house by simply letting a little bit of her fingertip slip through her fingers, but she still wanted to solve the housing problem herself.
Upon arriving at the studio, Jiang Wenzhen spotted her immediately: "Oh, Sister Zhong, you're finally here! I've missed you so much these past few days."
"Come on," Zhong Tingyue rolled her eyes. "You miss me? Why don't you believe me?"
Jiang Wenzhen is also fearless; she's not afraid of anyone in the studio except for Zhong Tingyue.
"By the way, have you two sorted out that matter yet?" Jiang Wenzhen craned her neck.
"good."
Upon hearing this, Jiang Wenzhen became excited: "Then tell me about it."
He paused, looked behind him, and asked with some confusion, "Hey, by the way, where's your little tagalong?"
"Something has happened in Chu."
... ...
After finishing his meal and cleaning up the kitchen waste, Chu drove to Fangzheng Investment Co., Ltd.
Yang Meina wanted to start an MCN company, but since she knew nothing about it, not even how to register a company, Chu Fang helped her by handing over all the registration materials to his company's employees.
I went to pick up the relevant materials today.
Yesterday it rained heavily all day, and the sky seemed to have been washed clean, appearing exceptionally blue, and the sun felt unusually warm on people.
Today is Tuesday, a workday, and the road to the company is particularly congested. I have to stop every few steps, but Chu Fang doesn't have "road rage" and doesn't have anything urgent to do, so he walks calmly and patiently.
We arrived at the most bustling financial district in Shanghai.
He got out of the car, and all around him were men and women in suits. Compared to the suits around him, Chu Fang's casual clothes made him stand out.
"President Chu." As soon as he got downstairs, he ran into Bai Ying, his former secretary. She was wearing sparkly high heels, a white shirt, a pencil skirt, and thin stockings, looking very mature and charming.
"Good morning." Chu Fang nodded with a smile.
It was rush hour, and long lines of workers were queuing up in front of the office building.
"Would you like some coffee?" Bai Ying handed him the Starbucks coffee.
"No need, I can't stand this stuff," Chu Fang refused.
Coffee has the effect of refreshing the mind, which is prepared for those with "naturally strong bodies," and is not suitable for a boss like him.
The two were queuing up when Bai Ying said, "President Chu, it's been so long! I've been wanting to invite you to dinner, but I've never been able to see you."
"Huh? Why are you inviting me to dinner?"
Bai Ying replied, "Without you, I wouldn't be who I am today."
Chu Fang: "?"
He was stunned.
What are you saying, sister?
Why can't I understand?
I haven't had a child yet...
Bai Ying also noticed his doubts. She pursed her lips and smiled faintly: "Now I am the deputy manager of the investment department."
"If you hadn't asked me to go to the investment department back then, I would still be working as a secretary, always ready to please others."
Bai Ying was grateful to Chu Fang.
When she was feeling lost, she found a way to move forward. And undeniably, as Chu Fang's secretary, she joined the investment department with Chu Fang's protection, making it easier for her to access certain resources compared to other employees in the department.
"Oh." Upon hearing this, Chu Fang immediately understood and recalled that Kang Bo had sent him a message, intending to promote Bai Ying to the position of investment manager. He had only asked if Bai Ying was capable of doing the job well, and Kang Bo replied: Yes.
He didn't ask any more questions, having almost forgotten about it.
Chu Fang shook his head: "Hey, that's the result of your own hard work. It has nothing to do with me, and I have nothing to say about gratitude."
Bai Ying's determination to leave that industry and work diligently was due to her own perseverance and willpower, and had little to do with Chu Fang.
"Can I treat you to a meal?" Bai Ying said. "Of course, don't worry, it's just a simple meal. Your sister-in-law can come too, so she won't misunderstand."
"Let's do it another day." Chu Fang saw sincerity in her eyes; she genuinely just wanted to eat out and was grateful without any ulterior motives. After thinking for a moment, he added, "Um... the company's annual dinner is fine too."
Bai Ying didn't say anything more.
The two entered the company, and Chu went to Kang Bo's office. He knocked on the door, and the latter responded and opened the door to enter.
Knowing that he was coming today, Kang Bo handed him the registered salary information and documents for Yang Meina.
Chu Fang received the document and left.
"President Chu has left again?" Bai Ying was not surprised by Chu Fang's departure, but she did not expect that he would only stay at the company for less than a minute.
Are there any companies that actually consider it their own business?
Investment manager Liu Liu leaned against the door: "Isn't this normal? It would be strange if he didn't leave."
"President Chu is really..." Bai Ying thought for a long time but still couldn't find the right adjective to describe this handsome CEO. She then changed the subject: "What do you think President Chu does outside all day when he's never at the company?"
A company with assets worth hundreds of millions is neglected and is always out and about, nowhere to be found.
"To please his girlfriend, of course," Liu Liu shrugged. "Have you met President Chu's girlfriend?"
Bai Ying shook her head, and Liu Liu said, "I haven't met her either, but I have seen her photos. They are formal work photos, with a black suit and long hair tied up high. She is very beautiful, but most importantly, she has a great temperament. You can feel her extraordinary temperament even through the photos. She is one of the top three girls I have ever met in terms of temperament."
Bai Ying raised an eyebrow: "So charming?"
"Yes, even my description is inadequate."
... ...
After leaving the company, Chu Fang drove to Yang Meina's house. Before going, he called Yang Meina, who was sleeping and reluctantly asked him to come.
"Oh dear, I'm a billionaire, how come I'm living like a beast of burden?" Chu Fang scratched his face.
He had someone register a company for Yang Meina, then went to get the documents and delivered them to Yang Meina's home. This doesn't seem like something a wealthy person would do.
"Never mind." Chu Fang gave up on dwelling on the matter.
It wasn't just because Yang Meina was Zhong Tingyue's childhood friend; to be fair, Yang Meina had helped them a lot, and without expecting anything in return.
When the two were trapped in Tibet, it was Yang Meina who calmed herself down and went to Tibet to find them.
Compared to what Yang Meina did for them, what they gave back to Yang Meina was far from enough, and what's the big deal about registering a company?
On the way to Yang Meina's house, Chu Fang unexpectedly received news from Ren Feiping's girlfriend, Zou He.
[Lotus Doesn't Bloom: Brother Chu, are you free? I'd like to invite you for coffee.]
He frowned slightly, thought for a few seconds, and instead of replying, he took screenshots of all the messages Zou He had sent him over the past few days and sent them all to Ren Feiping.
Ren Feiping: !!!
[For single people in relationships: Deal with this yourself and don't bother me anymore.]
Ren Feiping: ... ...
