Chapter 28: The Master
Communicating with smart people is simple.
Lin You nodded, "Then...are you willing to help?"
"Of course, isn't our agreement for situations like this?"
Cheng Hao's smile deepened. "Besides, I helped you this time, and next time I'll have to ask you to help me too."
Seeing that he agreed, Lin You also breathed a sigh of relief.
The next step was to discuss the specific operation method. The two agreed that Cheng Hao would pick up and drop off Lin You to and from get off work for the next week.
At that time, Lin You will announce the identity of his boyfriend to the public.
"But can I make one more small request?"
Lin You asked, blinking.
Seeing this, Cheng Hao remained silent and said, "Tell me about it."
Lin You pursed her lips and said softly, "Your car is too eye-catching. Do you have any other cheaper cars?"
Cheng Hao was stunned for a moment, then laughed heartily.
He has seen many women who like luxury cars, but he has never seen one who dislikes that his car is too good.

At first, the plan went smoothly.
Three days after Cheng Hao started picking up and dropping off Lin You to and from get off work, all the colleagues in the department knew that Lin You had a boyfriend.
Even Manager Hu would make a joke with her when they met.
Zhou Jia and Li Xiao are the two most lively interns in the department. During afternoon tea time, they chatted about the gossip in the lounge, all about Lin You having a boyfriend.
He Xuan came to this floor to do some work. When he passed by the lounge, he heard someone mention Lin You, so he paid attention and listened a few more words.
He was startled, then sat down opposite the two of them with a cup of coffee.
"Were you two young ladies talking about Sister Lin You just now?"
Both interns knew Special Assistant He, and since they had seen him come to see Lin You, they knew that they knew each other.
They thought He Xuan was just gossiping about acquaintances.
Zhou Jia nodded, "Yes, it's Sister Lin."
He Xuan took a sip of coffee and pretended not to believe it. "No way, Sister Lin and I have known each other for a while, and I haven't heard that she has a boyfriend. Could it be a misunderstanding?"
Li Xiao shook his head. "It's not a misunderstanding, it's true. Her boyfriend has been picking her up every day these days, driving a white domestically produced energy-saving car."
"He's a few years older than Sister Lin, and he's quite tall and big. He can't be called handsome, but he looks quite honest."
Zhou Jia also sighed, "Sister Lin has always been a loner. She was talking about going on a blind date a while ago, and now she's no longer single so quickly and without a word."
Li Xiao laughed again and said, "You don't know this, right? Her current boyfriend is her blind date."
Zhou Jia was stunned, then exclaimed as if suddenly realizing something, "So that's how it is! No wonder!"
"Alas, meeting someone through a blind date, that's so boring. I'm still going to be in a relationship in the future, and it has to be the kind of relationship that's fateful, and then it has to be passionate and intense..."
The two girls' topic quickly changed from dating to their popular idol dramas.
He Xuan chatted for a few words indifferently, then found an excuse to leave.

In front of the panoramic floor-to-ceiling curtains, Shi Jingyuan, dressed in a black custom-made suit, lit a cigarette.
He took a puff of his cigarette, exhaled the smoke, and then turned around to look at Qian Ling who was sitting on the sofa.
"You provide the money, Qianhe provides the technology. Qianhe doesn't agree to cooperate on this highly profitable project?"
Qian Ling sat on the sofa, turning his coffee cup boredly.
"That's right. He has money but doesn't want to make it. The boss of Qianhe is a mystery in his work style."
Qian Ling runs an investment company and will try to get involved in any money-making project.
He recently took a fancy to an environmental protection project. If he succeeds, he can easily earn some small money.
Shi Jingyuan walked to the sofa and sat down, put out the cigarette butt in the ashtray, and began to analyze calmly.
"Qianhe has become a giant in the industry within ten years. The boss's decision-making ability is unquestionable. As for his work style..."
He thought of that person and frowned slightly. "It can be considered an unconventional move, but I will never take any risks."
Qian Ling didn't understand. "What do you mean? Have you met Qian He's boss?"
"We've met a few times, but we're not familiar with each other."
Shi Jingyuan said calmly, "I think that since he doesn't agree to cooperate on this project, it means that he may have concerns about the project itself."
"According to what you mean...should I ask someone to do an in-depth background check?" Qian Ling asked.
Shi Jingyuan: "Yes. Let's investigate."
"I know that whenever I encounter difficulties, I can always find a solution by coming to you."
Qian Ling drank his coffee calmly. "Your brain is only suitable for managing the KSH Group. It's a waste of talent!"
Shi Jingyuan smiled faintly, "It shouldn't be too long. I promised the old man that we would double the sales here and shut up those old guys so that we can take over the Shi family with good reason."
Qian Ling gave him a thumbs-up. "You're worthy of being like me. Taking over the Shi family's business empire, such a huge undertaking, sounds as simple as what to eat tonight."
Shi Jingyuan didn't bother to pay attention to his teasing, turned back to his desk and started looking at the documents.
Qian Ling was speechless when he saw that he worked all day long.
"By the way, how about I organize a party tonight? How long have you been a sedentary? If you don't show up in the social circle, they'll all think you've gone to the mountains to become a monk."
Hearing this, Shi Jingyuan paused and looked up at him.
Having grown up wearing the same pants, Qian Ling noticed the clue at first glance.
Qian Ling: "Is this...someone you like?"
Shi Jingyuan didn't say anything, which was considered as his agreement.
Qian Ling became more and more curious, "Where is she from? To be liked by you, she must be incredibly beautiful."
Shi Jingyuan said with a gentle expression, "She is pretty, but not as exaggerated as you say."
Qian Ling lazily leaned on the sofa, his legs crossed and swung casually, "Well, I'm just worrying about nothing. I was worried that you might have health problems if you hold it in for too long."
Shi Jingyuan frowned, and his face darkened when he thought of the unpleasant ending last time.
When Qian Ling saw his reaction, he immediately retracted his crossed legs in surprise and sat up straight.
He shouted exaggeratedly, "My Mr. Shi! No way, you haven't won it yet?"
Shi Jingyuan rolled his eyes at him and started to chase him away, "Your problem is solved, get out of here!"
"Oh, you're still angry!" Qian Ling refused to leave and started to offer advice, "They're just women, they're all the same at heart. Brother, let me teach you a few tricks."
Shi Jingyuan lowered his head to look at the documents without looking up.
Qian Ling shamelessly stood in front of his desk and gave orders.
"If you want to take a woman down quickly, you have to attack her weaknesses."
"If she's materialistic, give her pocket money; if she's vain, buy her bags and show her around her sisters more often."
"You are so noble, so just pretend to be impressed by her character and talent, and appear before her as if you have been conquered by her."
Qian Ling had been around a lot of women and was extremely experienced. "As for the rest, those who are indifferent to everything, or those who are already taken..."
