Chapter 94 Don't touch me with your filthy hands
Xie Nanzhi looked at Wei Chizheng in surprise, while his hand hung awkwardly in the air. He couldn't stay, nor could he retreat.
Xie Nanzhi asked in confusion, "Mr. Wei, what does this mean?"
Standing not far behind Wei Chizheng, Mu Linqiang suppressed a laugh. What bad thoughts could the Second Master possibly have? He's just jealous.
Second Master is notoriously jealous; how could he tolerate someone touching Miss Xie's hand right under his nose? Not even a handshake.
Wei Chizheng remained unfazed and casually tried to smooth things over, "President Nan, are you really going to choose someone else so easily? Are you sure you don't want to reconsider me?"
Their deep gazes met, and Xie Nanzhi's delicate brows furrowed slightly.
Has he become addicted to acting?
Well, Xie Nanzhi put on a convincing performance, showcasing her exceptional acting skills.
She flung Wei Chizheng's hand away and sneered, "Don't even think about it. What good can someone be who hangs out with Pei Jingchuan?"
Wei Chizheng almost lost his composure, pausing for a second before regaining his senses, "Because of President Pei?"
Xie Nanzhi dismissively withdrew her gaze. "Birds of a feather flock together. Mr. Wei, please leave. Let's not waste each other's time."
Wei Chizheng showed extreme dissatisfaction, his deep eyes were cold, but if you looked closely, you could see the hidden doting.
He slammed the lighter shut with a crisp, loud sound, then glanced at her with cold eyes. "Mr. Nan, we have a long future ahead of us."
After saying that, Wei Chi angrily turned and left.
Watching the two walk away, Jin Xin's men were completely relieved. The man asked curiously, "President Nan, who is this Mr. Wei?"
Xie Nanzhi said coldly, "I don't know, but he's very close to President Pei of Zhengrong, so he's probably not a good person."
Forehead……
The man glanced at his companion, exchanged a knowing look, and understood each other without saying a word.
Fearing unforeseen complications, both parties signed the contract that same day.
Xie Nanzhi personally saw him off, and before parting, the man didn't forget to exchange pleasantries, "President Nan, it seems we'll be dealing with each other quite often in the future."
Xie Nanzhi responded with a smile, "That's right. We now jointly own the largest port in the port city in terms of transportation volume. Making a fortune is just around the corner."
"Haha, yes, let's make a fortune together in silence."
...
Hot Spring Resort.
Pei Jingchuan was soaking naked in the huge hot spring pool when Jiang Cheng walked towards him with a man.
Stopping behind Pei Jingchuan, Jiang Cheng said, "President Pei, Manager Zhang is here."
Pei Jingchuan leaned against the smooth pool arm, his arm dangling from the edge, his eyes half-closed as if dozing. "Is everything taken care of?"
Manager Zhang came to report to Pei Jingchuan as soon as he finished signing the contract at the expedition site. "Yes, everything is settled."
Pei Jingchuan slowly opened his eyes, propped himself up with his hands, and stepped out of the hot spring pool. He casually reached out, and Jiang Cheng immediately handed him a snow-white bath towel.
He casually wrapped a bath towel around his waist, sat down on a nearby recliner, and expertly lit a cigarette. "Mr. Wei went too?"
Manager Zhang nodded.
Pei Jingchuan took a deep drag of his cigarette and exhaled a puff of white smoke. "What did they all say?"
Manager Zhang hesitated, stammering, "This..."
Pei Jingchuan raised a cold eyebrow, his voice deepening, "Speak."
Manager Zhang shuddered in fright and hurriedly said, "Well, he didn't say anything. Mr. Wei held President Nan's hand and asked her to consider him, but President Nan refused."
"How did you refuse?"
Manager Zhang, drenched in sweat, went all out: "President Nan said that anyone who can hang out with Pei Jingchuan can't be anything good, and that you're all birds of a feather."
Snap~
The cigarette in Pei Jingchuan's hand broke.
Manager Zhang instinctively stepped back, and Jiang Cheng, seeing this, said, "You can go down now."
Manager Zhang ran faster than a rabbit, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Looking at Pei Jingchuan's ashen face, Jiang Cheng didn't dare to say anything more. "It seems that when Madam saw you having dinner with Wei Chizheng last time, she mistakenly thought you were in cahoots and took him for someone you had arranged. Speaking of which, Wei Chizheng actually helped us out by some twist of fate."
Pei Jingchuan was a cautious man. He made inquiries from various sources and confirmed that Xie Nanzhi had not repaid the loan from Morgan Bank on time. David was furious about this, and the news had already spread throughout the financial circle. That's why he sent Manager Zhang over today. Firstly, to discuss the intentions, and secondly, to further investigate the situation and see if he could get any useful information out of Xie Nanzhi.
Pei Jingchuan hadn't originally planned to sign the contract today, but Wei Chizheng's sudden appearance threw him off balance.
Pei Jingchuan's face darkened, his expression filled with murderous intent. "Jiang Cheng, why do you think Wei Chizheng suddenly became interested in the docks?"
Jiang Cheng knew perfectly well that they were both men, but he didn't dare say it aloud.
Jiang Cheng remained silent.
After a long pause, Pei Jingchuan said in a low voice, "He's not interested in the docks, he's interested in my woman."
Jiang Cheng saw the taut veins on Pei Jingchuan's forehead and his clenched fist, and a bad feeling rose in his heart.
Sure enough, Pei Jingchuan stood up and walked past him, saying, "He dares to covet my woman; he should be taught a lesson."
Jiang Cheng: "Yes, I'll arrange it."
——
Xie Nanzhi called Wei Chizheng as soon as she returned to her office.
The phone rang for a second before being answered, "Is the contract signed?"
Xie Nanzhi turned around in her office chair, facing the floor-to-ceiling window, and said, "Thanks to Mr. Wei, everything went very smoothly."
On his way to the social engagement, Wei Chizheng smiled and said, "Well, I hope it goes smoothly."
She didn't know when it started, but she and Wei Chizheng had developed such a tacit understanding.
She didn't say hello, and he didn't inform her beforehand.
But they can always tell what the other person is thinking and guess their intentions.
Just like this time, Xie Nanzhi clearly didn't know Wei Chizheng would come, but the moment he opened his mouth, she understood his intentions.
He wanted to disrupt Pei Jingchuan's thoughts and expedite the transaction.
The appearance of Wei Chizheng also confirmed Xie Nanzhi's suspicions about Jin Xin.
Pei Jingchuan is behind Jin Xin Shipbuilding.
Xie Nanzhi smiled, "Mr. Wei, would you do me the honor of inviting me to dinner tonight?"
Wei Chizheng glanced at his watch. He had a business dinner coming up, and if he could finish it within an hour, he would have enough time. "Seven o'clock tonight, is that alright?"
Xie Nanzhi said, "I'll send you the address in a bit. See you at 7 PM."
Wei Chizheng agreed.
...
Even though it was still some time before 7 p.m., Xie Nanzhi had no mind to do anything else. She kept checking the time and touched up her lipstick several times.
After calculating the time, Xie Nanzhi packed her things and hurriedly left the office when the time came.
She walked downstairs, feeling a strange sense of unease.
Excited and full of anticipation.
Just as Xie Nanzhi stepped out of the office building, she saw someone and her smile froze instantly.
She glanced coldly at Pei Jingchuan, who was standing in front of the luxury car, holding a bouquet of fiery red roses. To outsiders, he looked like a prince from a fairy tale.
Passersby looked at Xie Nanzhi with envy, but it seemed that only Xie Nanzhi found the scene ironic and disgusting.
Xie Nanzhi avoided Pei Jingchuan's gaze and walked in another direction. He caught up with her in a few steps and blocked her way.
Pei Jingchuan's eyes were full of love. "Nanzhi, let's have dinner together tonight."
Xie Nanzhi's lips curled into a mocking smile, cold yet captivating. "A good dog doesn't block the way. President Pei is not even as good as a good dog."
Pei Jingchuan seemed to have gotten used to her tone and wasn't angry. Instead, he tried to appease her by taking her hand.
Before he could even touch her fingertips, a resounding slap was enough to bring him back to his senses.
Xie Nanzhi growled, "Don't touch me with your filthy hands."
