Chapter 88 What is your relationship with Ji Wan?

Zhou Zechuan has been beaming lately, his face beaming with joy. Seeing his good mood, his assistant cautiously flattered him, "Boss, I've never seen a young man better than you. You're truly a young talent! I think you're much better than that Chi Wenyan!"

Hearing him mention Chi Wenyan, Zhou Zechuan raised his chin and sneered. He raised his chin and said with sarcasm in his tone, "Don't say that. Mr. Chi is from Kyoto."

"What's wrong with him coming from Kyoto? Even if a dragon came here, it would have to coil up, and even if it was a tiger, it would have to lie down." The assistant was equally disdainful. "Does he think it's so great just because he introduced a few customers? Even without him, you would have been able to get them yourself sooner or later, boss."

These words touched Zhou Zechuan's heart. Although Chi Wenyan introduced many clients to him, Zhou Zechuan felt that Chi Wenyan was trying to show goodwill to him.

Chi Wenyan is said to be from a prominent family, but Zhou Zechuan also knows the inside story. He is just a loser who couldn't make it in Kyoto and had to hide in Yucheng.

Zhou Zechuan was naturally unhappy that he had been overshadowed by such a person, but a lean camel is bigger than a horse. He was indeed a little weaker than Chi Wenyan, but in the future...

Thinking of his recent achievements, at this rate of momentum, even Chi Wenyan would not be able to compare to him in the future. Zhou Zechuan felt elated as he imagined the scene of stepping Chi Wenyan under his feet.

"Go and invite Brother Chi to dinner for me. Tell him to express your gratitude and ask him to come." Zhou Zechuan said lightly, and the assistant hurried to do it.

The restaurant was very quiet in the evening, with only two guests, Chi Wenyan and Zhou Zechuan. The soothing piano music in the restaurant added an elegant atmosphere to the dinner.

"I wonder if Brother Chi is satisfied with this environment? I reserved the place today because I don't want these insignificant people to disturb the two of us while we're having our meal."

Chi Wenyan felt very disdainful of Zhou Zechuan's slightly arrogant behavior. Knowing that he was deliberately showing off in front of him, he just thought it was ridiculous.

"The environment is great. You've put a lot of effort into it." Chi Wenyan smiled without showing any emotion. The well-tailored shirt made him look very elegant and calm. Seeing this, Zhou Zechuan felt jealous again.

"Brother Chi, this is a toast to you. Thank you for introducing those guests to me. If you need any help in the future, please let me know. I, Zhou, will do my best." Zhou Zechuan toasted Chi Wenyan with a glass of red wine. "Our company also plans to expand to Kyoto. When that happens..."

He left his words unfinished, with a hint of meaning in his voice. Chi Wenyan's fingers gripping the wine glass tightened, and the smile on his face widened.

"Cheers!" Chi Wenyan drank the red wine in his hand. He didn't know if he was drunk, but he loosened his collar. His expression was always a smile, and his deep eyes made it impossible to see the deep meaning of his emotions. "Kyoto, I will go back one day. You are the first friend I, Chi Wenyan, made, so of course I have to take you with me. Maybe in the future, I will need to rely on you to help me."

Seeing Chi Wenyan like this, Zhou Zechuan felt refreshed from head to toe. He said in a gentle and persuasive voice, "Brother Chi, you are too kind. But Brother Chi, if you have any good projects..."

"Since you call me Brother Chi, I will naturally give you the suitable project. Come to Hai Tian Sheng Yan to find me tomorrow." Chi Wenyan nodded with a sincere expression, and his words made Zhou Zechuan's heart beat wildly.

One has to admit that even though Chi Wenyan is now in such a state of poverty, the resources he holds in his hands are beyond Zhou Zechuan's imagination. Even a little bit of resources falling through his fingers is enough for him to eat his fill.

At this moment, Zhou Zechuan suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, Brother Chi, I seem to have seen you and Ji Wan getting very close recently. Are you interested in her?"

"She is indeed beautiful, and we have just met a few more times. What's the matter? Is there something wrong with Ji Wan?" Chi Wenyan expressed his confusion and answered nonchalantly.

Zhou Zechuan observed Chi Wenyan's expression and found that he did not show any concern or nervousness, and he felt relieved.

In private, as Ji Wan's secretly married husband, even though he has no feelings for Ji Wan and is just using her, he still has a possessive desire and doesn't want to see someone green on his head.

From a public perspective, Ji Wan has recently shown some signs of competing with him. If Ji Wan gets on board Chi Wenyan's ship, then his control over her will become less and less.

So no matter from what angle, Zhou Zechuan didn't want Chi Wenyan to get too close to Ji Wan.

"Brother Chi, you are from Kyoto. You have seen all kinds of beautiful girls. I advise you to be careful and not get entangled by some women with ulterior motives." Zhou Zechuan's words were full of strong hints.

"As for Ji Wan, I don't know what to say about her. But you know her family background, so she's a bit spoiled and willful. Sometimes it might be uncomfortable to get along with her. No matter how beautiful a rose is, it's prickly, so it's better not to touch it."

Listening to him belittling Ji Wan in front of him, Chi Wenyan began to clench his fists at his side, but he looked serious, as if he was really listening to the other party's advice.

As he listened, Chi Wenyan suddenly burst out laughing. He said, "You've said so much. Are you interested in Ji Wan and afraid that I'll snatch her away from you? I don't believe that you two have been in the same company for so long and you don't have any connection at all?"

"Spoiled and willful little rose, haha, this is not a comment a stranger can make. Tell me the truth, if she were your woman, I would never make a move." Chi Wenyan deliberately joked and at the same time secretly distanced himself from Ji Wan, as they had no relationship at the moment.

Now it was Zhou Zechuan's turn to hesitate. If he admitted his relationship with Ji Wan, it would be like slapping himself in the face. But if he didn't admit it, what if he really aroused Chi Wenyan's interest and made him take the initiative to pursue Ji Wan? Wouldn't he have been self-defeating?

The air conditioner in the restaurant was blowing very cold air, but sweat still began to seep out of Zhou Zechuan's forehead.

At this moment, his cell phone rang. Zhou Zechuan stood up immediately as if he had been pardoned. He said embarrassedly, "Sorry, there's an emergency at the company. I have to go out and answer the phone first."

"Work is important." Chi Wenyan nodded very sensibly, without any displeasure on his face.

Sitting in the restaurant, looking through the glass at Zhou Zechuan who was talking to the other end of the phone, the smile on Chi Wenyan's face instantly faded.

At this time, Zhou Zechuan seemed to realize that someone was looking at him. He turned around and waved to Chi Wenyan. Chi Wenyan also waved. He picked up the suit on the back of the chair and put it in his hand. He made a gesture to leave first, and then walked away.
