Chapter 21 Returning to Shenzhen to Save the Penguins

On the way, Shen Fang grabbed Zhong Lifang's hand, intending to try and persuade her again, but the woman completely ignored him, giving him a look of disgust. This left Shen Fang somewhat bewildered.

"Sister Lifang, why do I feel like you dislike me a little?"

Zhong Lifang shook her head: "No, I'm allergic to handsome men. I don't like handsome men. Whenever a handsome man talks to me, I feel like they want to cheat me out of money."

Chen Fang... "Damn it, I was hoping to have a heart-to-heart talk with you, but you're making me feel so awkward."

Zhong Lifang smiled and said, "Boss, we won't keep quiet once we've opened our hearts to each other. The more you give, the deeper our relationship will naturally become."

Shen Fang was speechless: "Sister Lifang, why do you always talk about money? We live in a society based on personal relationships; we should be talking about feelings."

Zhong Lifang smiled as she looked at the night view outside the window: "Mr. Shen, talking about feelings with you is too expensive. You've tried to take advantage of me more than once today, making me your free laborer. I suspect that you're so young and yet you have such a wealthy family background. You must have relied on your empty promises to get where you are. You're quite eloquent, but right now I just want to make money and settle down. We can talk about feelings after I've achieved success in my career."

Chen Fang... boring, too clear-headed, no wonder this woman succeeded.

Just then, Shen Fang's phone rang, and he saw it was Little Ma.

Shen Fang smiled and answered the phone.

"Hey, Little Ma, what do you want?"

A weary voice came from the other end of the phone: "Brother, I need you."

"Are you short of money again? It's okay, I may not have much else, but I have plenty of money. Just name your amount, and I'll transfer it to you later."

Little Ma was silent for a long time on the other end of the phone.

"Brother, to be honest, I'm really having a tough time right now. I don't even know which way to go. I feel a little guilty asking you to invest more money, but if you don't, all my hard work will be for nothing."

Shen Fang laughed as he listened to Little Ma's Northeastern accent.

"Brother Ma, when did you learn to speak Northeastern dialect? I'll say it again, just tell me how much you need."

“We’re still short about 12 million, but I really don’t know what to do next. Brother, do you have time to come to our company? Let’s discuss it. You have a lot of ideas.”

After a moment of contemplation, Shen Fang said, "Xiao Kun, let's go to Shenzhen first tomorrow and then return to Maoming."

Shen Kun nodded as he drove: "Okay, Third Uncle."

Shen Fang, holding the phone between his fingers, said, "Brother Ma, I'll be in Shenzhen tomorrow. Let's meet and talk."

Little Ma was pleasantly surprised: "Thank you so much, brother. I'll pick you up tomorrow. I won't bother you any longer, get some rest."

Zhong Lifang looked at Shen Fang curiously: "President Shen, who is Brother Ma? Why are you being so generous to him? This is completely unlike your style."

Shen Fang smiled: "You don't know Brother Ma? You haven't seen 'A Better Tomorrow'? The one with the pistol, 'BIUBIUBIU'. He's trying to smuggle a batch of counterfeit money and wants me to provide the initial capital..."

Zhong Lifang looked at Shen Fang, who was talking nonsense, and was a little speechless: "President Shen, don't joke with me, okay? Fine, don't tell me then."

Zhong Lifang turned her head away.

Shen Fang quickly apologized: "Okay, okay, I was just kidding. Have you ever heard of penguins?"

Zhong Lifang nodded: "I've heard of him. The father of QQ has a huge user base, and Li Zeju's investment in him even made the front page of HK Finance. How does he have anything to do with you?"

Shen Fang smiled mysteriously: "You can get involved if you want. I helped Penguin, and Penguin will reciprocate with Longteng in the future. It's mutually beneficial. Penguin's user base has now exceeded 60 million, a huge user base that will become a diamond mountain in the future. Sister Lifang, when we go to Penguin this time, we'll ask Pony Ma to help us post a recruitment ad. The talent the company needs will arrive soon. You'll have to work hard during this time."

Zhong Lifang nodded: "I understand."

Shen Fang didn't explain the specifics clearly, and Zhong Lifang didn't really want to ask, since she wasn't the boss anyway.

Shen Kun took Zhong Lifang to the Emerald Mansion, and Shen Fang and Shen Kun returned to the West Mountain Villa.

The next morning, Shen Fang woke up early. After a quick wash, he made a simple sandwich in the kitchen, and with the sandwich in his mouth, he went to Fatty's room. Shen Kun was still fast asleep, in a very seductive position, his butt sticking up—a position Shen Fang really didn't understand. Shen Fang kicked Shen Kun's butt, sending him flying more than a meter away.

The fat man woke up at this moment, looking sleepily at his great-uncle. Shen Fang tossed the sandwich in his hand to Shen Kun. Shen Kun caught it.

"Hurry up, it's already 6:30. We have our wedding this afternoon."

Upon hearing this, Shen Kun immediately snapped out of his daze, did a somersault, and instead of rolling over, lay flat on the bed.

Shen Fang couldn't bear to look: "What's Fatty doing? Trying to imitate Jackie Chan?"

Shen Kun chuckled and said, "I'm learning from Sammo Hung."

Chen Fang: "...I'll give you five minutes."

Five minutes later, Shen Kun appeared at the dining table carrying a huge backpack.

Shen Fang looked at Shen Kun's backpack and lifted it with his hand; it weighed at least 20 kilograms.

"What are all these things you've got? Why are you carrying such a huge backpack?"

......

Shen Fang: "Damn it, where did you put it?"

Shen Kun chuckled: "It's right under your bed."

Shen Fang looked at the lewd fat man: "Why are you bringing so many AVs back? And if they're found on the plane, we'll definitely be treated like perverts."

Shen Kun patted his chest: "It's okay, these cases don't investigate that now, and I have the invoices."
