Chapter 638: Tang Miaomiao's Request

After seeing Luo Haitang off, Chen Yang returned to his guest room to rest. Unexpectedly, Tang Miaomiao, who had already left early, strangely appeared at his guest room door.

"Chen Yang, have Teacher Luo and the others left?"

"They left. Weren't you also supposed to leave? Why did you come back again?"

"I have something I want to discuss with you. Can we go inside to talk?"

Chen Yang hesitated for a moment. A man and a woman alone in a room easily lead to trouble. Moreover, she has always had ulterior motives toward him.

"Tang Miaomiao, just say what you need to say directly; there's no need to be mysterious."

Tang Miaomiao glanced around, seeming still wary. She whispered: "Chen Yang, if you think it's inconvenient, we can talk at the door. The hallway is crowded and noisy; I don't want others to overhear our conversation."

Chen Yang had the bodyguard stand guard outside, then let Tang Miaomiao enter the guest room.

Tang Miaomiao quickly glanced around the guest room, and after confirming no one was there, she turned her gaze back to Chen Yang.

"Chen Yang, could you talk to our bank president and hand over full responsibility for your company's loan project to me?"

Chen Yang looked at Tang Miaomiao, somewhat puzzled. "What do you mean? Weren't you already in charge of our company's business?"

Tang Miaomiao sighed and said softly: "Small projects are surely assigned to me by superiors. Now it's a three-billion-yuan big project; many people are eyeing it. I heard someone is already preparing to snatch this project."

Chen Yang felt quite surprised. Tang Miaomiao could pull strings with the bank president; logically her backing should be strong enough. He didn't expect there to be someone even more capable who could take her business away.

He curiously asked: "Can't the bank president make the decision?"

Tang Miaomiao said glumly: "This person is the bank president's lover. She wants to take over this business, and the bank president will surely help her."

Chen Yang looked at Tang Miaomiao in surprise and casually said: "Your bank president plays quite the field; having you isn't enough, and now she's found someone new?"

"Chen Yang, what do you think I am?" Seeing Chen Yang regard her as the bank president's lover, Tang Miaomiao angrily said: "In your eyes, am I just someone who sells her looks to climb up?"

Chen Yang deeply agreed. A university graduate who had just finished his internship, in just over a year climbed to the position of bank business manager. Without extraordinary means, it would be very hard to achieve. But facing Tang Miaomiao, he felt embarrassed to say it outright.

"Tang Miaomiao, sorry, I misheard someone's rumor."

"Who? Was it that dead woman Zhang Linlin who said it?"

"No, she didn't say..."

"Hmph, she's jealous that I'm prettier than her; these past two years she hasn't stopped slandering me. Don't cover for her!"

Chen Yang sheepishly rubbed his nose. He never expected that his casual excuse would make Zhang Linlin take the blame.

"Tang Miaomiao, you misunderstood; it really isn't Zhang Linlin."

"Then who is it?"

"I don't remember either. Let's talk about the project; how do you need me to help?"

Seeing Chen Yang willing to help her, Tang Miaomiao's mood improved greatly. "Chen Yang, as long as you personally greet our bank president and designate me to take charge of this project, he won't dare to replace me."

Chen Yang nodded. Although he didn't like Tang Miaomiao, he disliked even more those who trade on their looks and use connections.

"Tang Miaomiao, I can let you take charge of this project. But if any problems arise later, you'll have to bear the responsibility yourself."

"Chen Yang, rest assured; I've waited three years for this opportunity. I will absolutely not disappoint you."

"Alright, go back now; I want to rest."

Seeing that the matter was settled, Chen Yang directly prepared to see her out.

Tang Miaomiao didn't expect things to be resolved so easily; she stood there stunned for a moment. After a while she said: "Chen Yang, you've helped me so much; surely you don't need me to do something for you in return?"

Chen Yang shook his head.

Tang Miaomiao persisted: "I treated you like that before; don't you want to take revenge? To humiliate me?"

Chen Yang frowned slightly and said: "Tang Miaomiao, you're sick in the head, thinking everyone else is as messed up as you? If you keep talking nonsense, I won't care about your affairs anymore."

Upon hearing that, Tang Miaomiao left disappointed.

After her footsteps faded down the hallway, Chen Yang finally let out a breath of relief.

He wasn't unable to understand Tang Miaomiao's hint; he just knew this woman too well. For money and status, she would do anything.

Moreover, he wasn't lacking women either!

Having drunk a bit, Chen Yang prepared to take a nap. Not long after lying down, a knocking sound came from outside the door again.

He opened the door and saw it was Zhang Linlin.

"You weren't supposed to have left? Why are you back again?"

"Chairman, I have something to discuss with you. By the way, when I just came in I ran into Tang Miaomiao. You two didn't... do that, did you?"

Chen Yang glared fiercely at Zhang Linlin and said irritably: "Even if I were desperate for women, I wouldn't get involved with her. If you have business, talk business; if not, don't disturb my nap."

Zhang Linlin immediately replied with a smile: "Chairman, it's correct that you don't want her. That woman has nothing but a fox's face; she's empty inside. Her former boyfriend in the capital dumped her, and that's probably the reason..."

Chen Yang helplessly interrupted her: "What exactly do you want?"

Seeing Chen Yang didn't like gossip, Zhang Linlin's expression turned serious immediately. "Chairman, do you still remember Wu Haidi, who sat behind us in school?"

"I remember, didn't he come today as well?" Chen Yang recalled carefully: "I remember he seemed to want to be an agent for a chain store trading in ordinary people's agricultural products."

Zhang Linlin nodded: "Wu Haidi worried you were too busy and didn't hear his request clearly. He wants me to help find you to confirm it."

Chen Yang told Zhang Linlin: "You don't need to tell me this; just take him to find Zheng Yun."

Zhang Linlin sighed: "Wu Haidi's father has cancer; the family's money has all gone to treatment. He wants to discuss with you whether he can take delivery first and pay later."

In his previous life, Chen Yang had little contact with his high school classmates and didn't know about the changes in Wu Haidi's family. His only impression was that the guy liked to sneak-read martial arts novels during class. Precisely because he didn't like studying, he merely scraped by with a high school diploma.

However, back then their class had over sixty students, only a dozen or so got into college. Wu Haidi may not like studying, but he's far better than someone like Zhou Yunpeng. At least he didn't affect others' learning.

Chen Yang still wanted to help someone like that.

"Zhang Linlin, have him first look for a few decent storefronts; later I'll buy them in my name. As long as he's willing to do it, I'll get the renovation done and waive the rent."

Zhang Linlin gave Chen Yang a thumbs-up and said with a grin: "Chairman, you're still the magnanimous one."

Chen Yang gave her a sideways glance and said: "You're pretty magnanimous too. Back in school you weren't rarely bullied by Zhou Yunpeng, yet today you actually brought him into the company."
