Chapter 97: The locals are so rude!

Early in the morning, the sun was just rising.

Inside the Ode to Joy residential complex, a figure in sportswear was jogging.

Watching the person who brushed past her, Holding Guan Ju'er couldn't help but be stunned; wasn't that the young man who lived upstairs?

Just as Holding Guan Ju'er was somewhat dazed, Andy also passed by her side and said, "Don't lose focus!"

"Got it, Sister Andy!"

Hearing Andy's words, Holding Guan Ju'er hurriedly snapped back to reality.

Just after the morning run ended, the two were strolling back.

"Yo, good morning, you two!"

Raising his hand to greet them, Zhang Cheng spoke with a smile on his face.

"Morning, Zhang Dong!"

Looking politely at Zhang Cheng, Holding Guan Ju'er nodded.

"Don't call me Zhang Dong, it sounds so old-fashioned. Just call me Zhang Cheng; the 'Cheng' as in 'integrity in conduct'!"

Stepping forward with a face full of smiles, Zhang Cheng began to introduce himself.

"I'm Holding Guan Ju'er, who lives downstairs from you!"

Explaining to Zhang Cheng, Holding Guan Ju'er smiled, because the other party didn't seem to have that kind of overbearing feeling about him.

"Holding Guan Ju'er? What a good name. 'Guan-guan go the ospreys, on the islet in the river; the modest, retiring girl, is a good mate for the virtuous man!'"

Looking at the Holding Guan Ju'er before him, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but tease.

"If Zhang Dong keeps saying things like that, Guan-guan is going to blush!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Andy, who was beside them, couldn't help but laugh.

"Is that so? Then it seems Guan-guan's skin is still quite thin. By the way, I can call you that, right?"

Looking at the Holding Guan Ju'er before him, Zhang Cheng asked.

"It's fine, my friends all call me that!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's inquiry, Holding Guan Ju'er hurriedly spoke up.

"Let's shake hands to signify that we are already friends!"

Arriving in front of Holding Guan Ju'er, Zhang Cheng extended his hand.

Pursing her lips, Holding Guan Ju'er shyly extended her hand.

Just after the two shook hands, Zhang Cheng turned his head and said, "What about Miss Andy? You wouldn't mind making friends with me, would you?"

"Of course I wouldn't mind. I'm actually quite curious why Zhang Dong could succeed in entrepreneurship at such a young age!"

Extending her hand, Andy looked at Zhang Cheng with a face full of smiles.

"Oh, doing business is nothing more than supply and demand, plus a little bit of trickery!"

Looking happily at Andy, Zhang Cheng teased.

And after hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Andy couldn't help but laugh out loud, saying, "Zhang Dong seems quite humorous!"

"Just speaking the truth!"

Shrugging his shoulders, Zhang Cheng leaned toward Holding Guan Ju'er and said, "Guan-guan, you don't have a boyfriend, do you?"

"No, no I don't!"

Blushing as she looked at Zhang Cheng, Holding Guan Ju'er appeared somewhat embarrassed.

"Oh, then I know!"

Looking at Holding Guan Ju'er with a face full of smiles, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but tease.

"Is Zhang Dong interested in Guan-guan?"

Looking curiously at Zhang Cheng, Andy couldn't help but ask.

"Compared to Guan-guan, I'm actually more interested in Miss Andy. After all, as the Chief CFO of the Shengxuan Group! Your ability makes me quite envious!"

Teasing Andy, Zhang Cheng laughed.

But just after the three went upstairs to change clothes, Qiu Yingying was seen looking curiously at Holding Guan Ju'er, saying, "Guan-guan, why is your face so red!"

"Is it red? I, I don't think so!"

Looking at herself in the mirror, Holding Guan Ju'er couldn't help but become nervous.

Because when they were coming back just now, she had been in the middle the whole time, and Zhang Cheng kept leaning toward her, which made Holding Guan Ju'er very nervous, and that was what caused her to blush.

"Still saying you're not blushing?"

Watching Holding Guan Ju'er flee back into her room, Qiu Yingying couldn't help but complain.

In the underground garage, when Guan-guan and Andy reappeared, Zhang Cheng happened to open the car door and said, "You work at the same company?"

"No, I'm just going the same way as Sister Andy!"

Explaining to Zhang Cheng, Holding Guan Ju'er couldn't help but speak.

"Guan-guan is currently interning at Huaxin Securities, which is only a few steps away from our Shengxuan!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Andy laughed.

"Wow, a Fortune 500 company! Guan-guan, you're really impressive; one wouldn't be able to tell!"

Looking at Holding Guan Ju'er with pleasant surprise, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but tease.

"I'm not that good, just an intern!"

Speaking to Zhang Cheng, Holding Guan Ju'er didn't know what to do after hearing this sentence.

And just after the two drove away, the corners of Zhang Cheng's mouth couldn't help but lift into a smile.

Among the five beauties of Ode to Joy, there are only three worth marrying home: Qiu Yingying is suitable for family life, Holding Guan Ju'er is suitable for growing old together, but Andy can make a family grow big and strong!

As for Fan Shengmei, the degree of wretchedness of her original family is something basically no normal person would dare to get involved with!

And Qu Xiaoxiao? That is an existence that even Zhang Cheng is afraid of when he looks at her; who can guarantee there's nothing wrong with her?

If Zhao Qiping ever found out about Qu Xiaoxiao's "level of joy" abroad, he'd probably go jump into the Huangpu River!

That wouldn't even be a question of the depth of a cuckold's hat anymore; that would be riding a horse and singing, galloping across the green pastures!

"Wow, a Fortune 500 company? Really can't imagine, our boss would actually praise someone!"

This book is recently updated at ##!! Update!

Walking out from the elevator nearby, Luan Bingran looked at Zhang Cheng with a playful expression.

"If you're going to talk, just talk, don't be so sarcastic!"

Looking at Luan Bingran with annoyance, Zhang Cheng complained.

"How is this being sarcastic? Isn't this me learning from you, Boss, on how to praise someone? If someone didn't know better, they'd think the boss was playing the 'mute groom' at the company. You've never praised me before!"

Arriving at Zhang Cheng's side, Luan Bingran raised her small hand and tapped his shoulder, saying, "Oh my, Boss, look at me, do I look like I'm learning well?"

Looking at Luan Bingran with an expressionless face, Zhang Cheng was completely speechless.

And Xu Yingzi, who was watching this scene from the side, immediately tilted her head back, covered her mouth, and tried to hold back her laughter, tears almost falling.

Because even she didn't know why, but Luan Bingran after work was like a completely different person!

"That's enough! Luan Bingran!"

Gritting his teeth as he looked at Luan Bingran, Zhang Cheng directly opened the car door.

"Get in the car, Yingzi, otherwise we'll have to take the bus! Unlike some people, who specifically wait here to send someone to work! And still didn't succeed!"

Pulling Xu Yingzi into the car, Luan Bingran continued to mock him.

And hearing Luan Bingran's words, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but turn his head and say, "You?"

"What about me? Drive, we have a meeting this morning!"

Looking at Zhang Cheng, Luan Bingran raised her hand forward and said, "Let's go, driver!"

Looking at Luan Bingran in the rearview mirror, Zhang Cheng didn't want to say a single word anymore.

Xu Hui, Far East Group, conference room.

All the departments now have completely relocated to the "Cheng's Group".

And the original Cheng's Group also changed its name, becoming Far East!

Inside the conference room, besides Zhang Cheng, only the sole major shareholder, Cheng Xiaosang, remained.

The managers of each department sat below, beginning to discuss the group's subsequent strategy.

Although the Far East Group was expanding very quickly, from having only "smuggled goods" channels back then to becoming a "multinational" group today, Zhang Cheng knew that a person's "dream" and ambition would never end!

"How are things going with the coal mines over in Datong?"

Looking at Cheng Xiaosang beside him, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but ask.

Because the Cheng's Group previously had quite a few coal mines in the Datong area, Zhang Cheng was thinking of reinvesting, purchasing equipment, and developing them.

After all, what man doesn't have a dream of being a coal boss!

"Don't even mention it, the people just got there and were beaten up! Their boss wants us to transfer it for 30 million!"

Hearing Zhang Cheng's words, Cheng Xiaosang explained.

"What? 30 million? These locals are too rude!"

Suddenly hearing this sentence, Zhang Cheng looked at Cheng Xiaosang in astonishment, because wasn't this clearly trying to rob him?

A coal mine worth over 200 million, transferred for 30 million?

His brain would have to be gnawed away by Jia Zhang Shi for him to be able to do that, right?
