Chen Yun returned to the private room.

Lai Fu and the others immediately gathered around, unable to contain their curiosity any longer, and asked Chen Yun what kind of background this elder was.

The arrogant Commissioner He was trembling with fear in front of his elder, Chen Yun, like a mouse seeing a cat!

Looking at the group of curious children in front of him, Chen Yun couldn't help but feel a bit of a headache. He said ambiguously, "Didn't I just tell you? Old Qin was my former leader in the army. He took good care of me and was like my teacher."

Everyone suddenly understood.

Xu Feiyan said, "No wonder Mr. Qin said you were his prized student! By the way, Chen Yun, your teacher is so prestigious, his status must be very high, right?"

Everyone looked at Chen Yun expectantly, waiting for his answer.

Chen Yun had not yet spoken.

Shu Tangyin was already seriously considering: "Chen Yun, I remember you were a platoon leader or a company commander in the army. I guess your teacher was at least a regimental commander, right?"

Chen Yun blinked: "Then you underestimate my teacher. He's a brigade commander now!"

Shu Tangyin, Xu Feiyan, and others had no concept of military ranks.

In their minds, the regimental commander in the TV dramas they usually watch is already an incredibly powerful figure!

Not to mention the brigade commander!

When everyone heard Chen Yun say that Lao Qin was a brigade commander, they all believed it and exclaimed in surprise, saying that it was no wonder Lao Qin had so many bodyguards when he went out.

Chen Yun was both amused and exasperated. He wondered how shocked these people would be if they knew that Old Qin was one of the most senior and powerful veterans in the military.

Seeing everyone's exaggerated reaction, Shu Lingyue chuckled to herself.

She knew that Chen Yun was the God of War of the Northern Frontier, so she was well aware that Lao Qin's identity was not so simple. At this moment, she stared at Chen Yun with a strange light in her eyes, taking pride in knowing Chen Yun's secret!

The group drank a few more glasses, and then the party ended.

They each went home.

the next day.

Chen Yun returned to work at Shu's Company.

When I get to the company, I take a stroll around first, then go back to my office, close the door, lie down in my office chair, and start slacking off and taking a nap.

Too many things have happened recently, especially the confrontation with his biological father, which constantly reminds him of his mother who died with resentment, so he has been looking rather haggard these past two days.

I don't know how long I dozed off.

Suddenly, there was a soft click as the office door opened!

Although Chen Yun did not open his eyes, he immediately regained consciousness.

Last night, Old Qin reminded him that foreign enemies had sent Asura, the king of assassins, to kill him, so he was still very vigilant.

After the door was opened, the sound of high heels rang out, and a captivating fragrance filled the air.

Chen Yun didn't need to open his eyes to know that the person who came was Shu Lingyue.

Shu Lingyue opened the door and came in, only to find Chen Yun asleep in his office chair. She was slightly taken aback and instinctively wanted to wake him up.

But one noticed a slight look of fatigue on Chen Yun's handsome face.

I couldn't bear to do it.

"What did this guy do last night? He looks so haggard."

Shu Lingyue muttered something under her breath, her tone filled with heartache and pity.

She gently placed the Starbucks coffee she bought for Chen Yun on the desk, then moved closer to Chen Yun, taking advantage of his "sound asleep" to shamelessly admire his handsome face up close.

The more I look at it, the more I like it.

The more I look at it, the more my heart flutters.

Overwhelmed with emotion, she couldn't help but raise her hand, wanting to gently touch Chen Yun's cheek.

To her utter surprise, her hand had barely reached out to Chen Yun before it even touched his cheek!

Chen Yun opened his eyes without warning: "What are you going to do?"

Shu Lingyue was startled and almost screamed.

Immediately, she said angrily, "Well, so you were pretending to be asleep!"

Chen Yun said irritably, "I was dozing off, but you woke me up."

Shu Lingyue was filled with embarrassment and anger, and she accused the villain first: "Since you're awake, why don't you open your eyes? Why are you lying in the chair pretending to be asleep? Are you trying to scare me to death?"

Chen Yun glanced at her and said coldly, "Although I'm awake, I'm still sleepy and don't want to talk to you, so I'm planning to close my eyes and doze off for a while longer. Is that not allowed? On the contrary, what were you trying to do while I was sleeping?"

Shu Lingyue's pretty face flushed red. Refusing to explain her behavior, she seized on Chen Yun's words and acted spoiled, saying, "You don't want to talk to me? I even kindly bought you coffee and brought it over, and this is how you treat me? Chen Yun, you've gone too far!"

Chen Yun glanced at the coffee on the table and pouted, "I don't like drinking coffee."

Shu Lingyue's eyes widened: "You!"

Just then, Chen Yun's phone rang.

Chen Yun took out his phone and saw that it was Long Pingting calling, so he answered the phone: "Hello!"

Long Pingting's voice came through the phone: "Young Master, Zhonglong Group is officially established today. Shareholders Liang Chenglong, Tang Shirong, Lu Yaonan, and Wu Haidong will all attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony. In addition, many other guests will come to offer their congratulations. Young Master, would you like to come and cut the ribbon as well?"

Shu Lingyue, who was standing nearby, vaguely heard that the phone call was from a woman, so she pricked up her ears and leaned over to eavesdrop.

But Chen Yun pushed him away.

Chen Yun said to Long Pingting on the other end of the phone, "I don't like crowds, so I won't go."

Long Pingting said, "Alright! Young Master, you don't have to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony of Zhonglong Group today, but you have to come with me tonight for a business cocktail party."

Chen Yun: "Hmm?"

Long Pingting explained, "The cocktail party was initiated by He Liqiang, the person in charge of bidding for the operating rights of China Shipping Ports. It was called a business cocktail party, but it was actually a qualification pre-screening."

"The operation rights for China Shipping Ports are being awarded through an invitation to bid. It is said that hundreds of companies will be attending the reception tonight, but only five companies will be able to pass the pre-qualification review and enter the next review stage."

"Tonight's banquet is closely related to whether we can secure the port's operating rights, so you must attend with me, young master."

Chen Yun agreed, saying, "Okay, I'll accompany you to the party tonight."

After saying that, he hung up the phone.

Although Shu Lingyue couldn't hear clearly what the woman on Chen Yun's phone was saying,

But she could tell from the voice that the person calling Chen Yun was definitely a young woman!

Then I heard Chen Yun say that he was going to a cocktail party with that woman tonight.

She was both jealous and angry!

She had felt sorry for Chen Yun when she saw him dozing off and looking so haggard!

The thought that Chen Yun looked so haggard, probably from not sleeping at night and messing around with that mysterious woman on the phone, made her feel both angry and frustrated.

I originally thought Shu Tangyin was the only competitor!

I didn't expect there to be a competitor.

Shu Lingyue secretly decided that she would secretly follow Chen Yun tonight to see which woman he had been with lately and why he looked so haggard.
