When Xiao Chenglin arrived at the store, Jiang Tian was discussing business with Shen Suliang.

The two have been on very good terms lately. After all, when they share the same business goals and both want to make money, they become the best allies. When interests come first, who would give up money for something else?

"Commander, this private room has the boss's distinguished guests. I hope you will not go in."

The people Jiang Tian trained were indeed bold; they even dared to stop Xiao Chenglin.

Xiao Chenglin looked terrible. Instead of having others break down the door, he said to the doorway, "Jiang Tian, ​​I know you're in there doing business. I want to say a few words to you. Consider my thoughts before you talk to that person."

He waited for about a minute before the door finally opened.

Jiang Tian sized him up, a playful look in her eyes: "General, you don't come here unless you have a reason. What brings you here? Don't tell me you're here to stop me from making money, or you'll be my enemy."

Xiao Chenglin didn't look at her, but instead looked at another person in the room.

Shen Suliang greeted Xiao Chenglin with a smile: "Commander-in-Chief, it's been a long time. You don't look too well lately."

Xiao Chenglin had just come out of the hospital, so of course he didn't look well.

He had only covered up his injuries, not all his problems; his face was still pale.

"Just tell me what you want to talk to me about."

Jiang Tian spoke.

"You're going to be doing business with Shen Suliang soon. Do you know who he is?"

Xiao Chenglin stared at Jiang Tian.

Jiang Tian smiled and said, "I don't know who he is, but I do know that he is someone who will bring me good benefits. And who are you? You're here, and you're asking me this kind of question. Isn't that a bit strange? Didn't we already agree on our relationship before? Being husband and wife in name doesn't mean you can get in my way."

"I'm not trying to stop you, I'm just worried you'll be scammed. Do you really think a big businessman is genuinely interested in doing business with someone like you who's only recently opened two shops?"

“Why not be sincere? Even a mosquito leg is meat. I know very well how well my own business is doing. My management model is excellent. Mr. Shen is willing to talk to me about this business, which means I do have advantages. Let's be business, I don't know what you're really worried about for me.”

Jiang Tian clearly didn't buy into his argument.

Xiao Chenglin's face turned ashen. He looked at Shen Suliang and asked, "Are you really talking business with her sincerely?"

Shen Suliang shook his head helplessly: "Commander, it seems you haven't grasped one thing, which is that I am a businessman. I would not deliberately deceive your wife under immense public pressure. You came here in such a huff today and took such good care of your wife. I applaud your relationship, but that doesn't mean I should be subjected to your accusations for no reason."

“Your wife is indeed a very capable person. My purpose in working with her is to gain more benefits. We have nothing to hide. If you have any ulterior motives, then that is your problem.”

In fact, Shen Suliang is also very handsome, but his handsomeness has a sinister air about him, making people think that he is not a good person.

His words, on the surface, seemed to be a sincere attempt to clarify things, but there was always an unspoken sarcasm in them.

“I won’t stop you two from working together, but I’d like to see the specifics of both of you first. I know my presence today is a bit presumptuous, but our marriage is still valid, and I should at least do my part to vet you. You are my wife, not an outsider or a stranger. If you are deceived, I, as your husband, will definitely feel guilty. I hope you can understand my intentions.”

Xiao Chenglin's tone was quite sincere. He looked at Jiang Tian, ​​waiting for her answer.

Jiang Tian's lips curled up: "Alright then, take a look and see. I know you don't have any bad intentions, but the way you're acting today is indeed quite intimidating."

Xiao Chenglin looked intently at Jiang Tian.

Jiang Tian let him look at her without changing her expression.

Gradually, the atmosphere improved.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Tian's few simple words resolved the crisis in an instant.

Xiao Chenglin turned to Shen Suliang and asked, "What kind of business do you want to do with her?"

Shen Suliang stared at Xiao Chenglin for a few seconds, then suddenly laughed: "Commander, don't worry, I really have no bad intentions. Don't torture me like a criminal. We do have a history, but you know better than I do that your current wife is Ms. Jiang, and there's no possibility for Qin Xueyi anymore. How could I possibly hold a grudge against you and then take revenge on your wife?"

"It's better to be safe than sorry. There are plenty of unexpected things that happen in this world. Jiang Tian married me, so I have to take responsibility for her. So please give me the specific documents to look at. It's getting late today, so I'll send someone to investigate tomorrow."

Xiao Chenglin's tone was very serious; he showed no sign of joking with anyone.

Shen Suliang had been navigating the business world for many years, and his family was a wealthy and influential clan. He was well aware of all the complexities and intricacies of the business world.

If he wanted to trip someone up, how many people could tell?

Jiang Tian had finally managed to make a successful business deal, and Xiao Chenglin couldn't just watch her hard work go to waste.

"Alright, let's eat first. Commander, you haven't eaten either, have you? Let's have a meal together today."

Jiang Tian quickly eased the tension.

She smiled and invited the two guests to another private room: "We've recently developed a new menu and are working on new dishes, but I'm not sure how they'll taste. Could you please try them and give me your feedback? After all, you two have both eaten the finest delicacies."

The two sat at a table, neither of them speaking, and their auras seemed to clash.

Jiang Tian seemed completely oblivious to the undercurrents within, and instructed her employees to serve the dishes.

"Today we have all new dishes, and I've tried them all. They all taste great. Now it's up to you two to give your opinions."

Jiang Tian's smile was flawless, as if she treated them as customers dining there, rather than people with whom she had any real relationship.

Neither of them spoke immediately after hearing her words.

Just then, the employees outside rushed in.

"Boss, Miss Qin is at the door. She says she wants to see you."

Jiang Tian raised an eyebrow and said meaningfully, "Do you want to see me, or do you want to see someone else?"

Then, she looked at the two special customers: "We're almost ready to eat, do you think we should invite Miss Qin in to join us?"
