Chapter 993: A Cry for Help
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
“Please, come in.” Yang Ming thought it was a waiter, so he did not care and said directly.
The door of the room opened. The people who came in were not waiters, but Hou Zhenhan and Bao Sanli, and the person behind them was Guo Jianchao with a helpless face. After coming in, he first self-criticized, “Brother Yang, this is not my fault. I didn’t want to bother you, but Brother Bao and Brother Hou came here because they heard that you are here too. That is why they are here…”
“It’s okay.” Yang Ming waved his hand and glanced at Hou Zhenhan and Bao Sanli. These two people were not impetuous people. They knew that he did not like this kind of situation, but now they must have important matters to look for him.
“Brother Yang, I…” As Bao Sanli spoke up to here, he glanced at Jing Xiaolu next to Yang Ming.
Jing Xiaolu was facing her back to the door, so she didn’t care about it at first. She thought it was a waiter. Later, when she heard someone called Yang Ming as Brother Yang, then she felt that something was wrong, so she turned around. Then, she found out that her company’s President Hou was standing there, and she was suddenly surprised!
Moreover, Jing Xiaolu used to be a delinquent girl who mingled with the underworld, so she knew about the characters of Song Jiang’s underworld very well. The person next to President Hou was the boss of Song Jiang’s underworld, Bao Sanli! How could she not know?
She saw that he actually called Yang Ming as Brother Yang. Previously, she was amazed that Yang Ming talked to Hou Zhenhan with a commanding tone; today, she was even more baffled. However, Jing Xiaolu still immediately stood up when she saw Hou Zhenhan. “Hi, President Hou.”
When Hou Zhenhan inexplicably took a call from Yang Ming that day, he arranged for a girl to join the company muddle-headedly, and Yang Ming did not explain much. Hou Zhenhan didn’t know what the girl had to do with Yang Ming, so Hou Zhenhan did not dare to neglect, and he treated her nicely. Today, when he saw that Yang Ming and Jing Xiaolu were eating here alone, he was even more sure that Jing Xiaolu was Yang Ming’s lover. How dare he still act bossy in front of Jing Xiaolu? Although he was Jing Xiaolu’s boss, Yang Ming was his boss instead! Although Jing Xiaolu was his employee, she was also Yang Ming’s lover. So, he said immediately, “Sister-in-law, this is not in the company. You do not have to call me President Hou, and just call me as Big Hou as Brother Yang does.”
Initially, Bao Sanli still wanted to say something. He did not know who Jing Xiaolu was, so he did not dare to speak directly. However, when he heard that Hou Zhenhan called Jing Xiaolu as sister-in-law, then he did not have to evade her, so he said, “Brother Yang, President Niu made an appointment to eat here with President Hou and me. Initially, we wanted you to make some decisions in regards to a certain matter…”
Yang Ming was frustrated. D*mmit, it is all messed up! Then, he glanced at Jing Xiaolu angrily. He really wanted to expose her when he saw her complacent look. However, it was not her fault. Hou Zhenhan misunderstood him as well. Yang Ming sighed. Never mind. Just take it as satisfying Jing Xiaolu’s vanity.
If he really exposed her relentlessly, she would be embarra.s.sed at the moment. Since Bao Sanli had already said half of it, it was not suitable to chase Jing Xiaolu out anymore.
Moreover, Bao Sanli should be talking about normal business. He did not have to hide from Jing Xiaolu. Anyway, this girl had probably guessed his ident.i.ty. If he deliberately disguised his ident.i.ty, it might have the opposite effect, so he said, “Sit down and talk. Jianchao, you also sit down together.”
After Yang Ming saw Hou Zhenhan and Bao Sanli sit down, and Guo Jianchao was still standing there, Yang Ming nodded to him.
Guo Jianchao was very excited. This was the first time Brother Yang brought him into a core meeting. It showed that his efforts had finally paid off. Brother Yang began to trust him and give him more important tasks. He gave his thanks excitedly and sat down by the side, but he only sat on half a chair. He was afraid to sit down nicely.
“Tell me what happened?” Yang Ming glanced at Bao Sanli and spoke.
“This is the case, Brother Yang. Are we not going to do real estate business? Now there is a good opportunity,” said Bao Sanli. “You know President Niu too. He is the one who helped repair the jewelry company’s… He looked for me today saying that Hongxi Real Estate’s President Chen told him that there is a big project in the city, and he wants to work with us. You see…”
When Yang Ming heard it, he understood that Hongxi Real Estate’s President Chen could not handle such a big project, and he was afraid someone might want to ruin his project. Therefore, he decided to form an alliance with Bao Sanli who had a strong background. As such, he was not afraid that those petty men would act rashly.
Since this was a mutually beneficial matter, there was nothing to study, so he said, “Alright, I got it. This is a good project. You can work on it without worry.”
“Okay, Brother Yang!” Bao Sanli naturally felt at ease to work on the project after getting Yang Ming’s approval. “Jianchao, you also help out with the real estate matter. When you were working for w.a.n.g’s Century Xiongfeng Group, you had also been involved in the development of real estate projects, so you should have some experience. You are too free to manage Tavern Heaven on Earth. Jianchao, you won’t feel tired, right?”
Guo Jianchao was looking for it. How would he feel tired? He was excited. Sure enough, Brother Yang is about to give an important task to me! He immediately said gratefully, “Not tired. It is my honor to work for Brother Yang! Rest a.s.sured. I will do well!”
Yang Ming nodded and said, “It is too early to show your determination. Do it well and make some achievements. This is more important.”
“I understand,” said Guo Jianchao quickly.
Jing Xiaolu really saw the ident.i.ty of Yang Ming. It turned out that Yang Ming was the behind-the-scenes boss of Song Jiang! Looking at Guo Jianchao’s happy look, Jing Xiaolu felt a bit disdainful. She had heard people saying that the Tavern Heaven on Earth’s boss was a bad*ss, and his background was strong, but today…
Jing Xiaolu regretted that Luan Xiaoru had gone too early. Otherwise, if Luan Xiaoru saw this scene and exaggerated it to the others, then Jing Xiaolu would be more proud.
However, she saw that Yang Ming was trying to be low-key. He only said that he knew the Tavern Heaven on Earth’s boss in front of Luan Xiaoru. If Luan Xiaoru were present, Yang Ming would probably not let these people sit down and discuss these matters.
Thinking of this, Jing Xiaolu was a little excited. Yang Ming actually did not lie to her. Yang Ming Ming’s other girlfriends probably did not have such an honor!
Hou Zhenhan also talked about the development direction of the real estate company. Yang Ming just simply suggested a few options. They had to deal with most of the problems themselves. After all, Yang Ming did not understand these things very well. They had to execute and explore everything.
President Niu was still waiting upstairs. After they briefed Yang Ming, they went upstairs. Guo Jianchao naturally followed upstairs as well. With Yang Ming’s personal appointment, Guo Jianchao had also officially become a member of Yang Ming’s vast business group.
“Are you full? Let’s go.” Yang Ming glanced at Jing Xiaolu and asked.
” En , I am full.” Jing Xiaolu was in a good mood and nodded happily. She also knew that even if she did not tell Yang Ming, no one would accept her money the next time she came to Tavern Heaven on Earth. Guo Jianchao, the boss of Tavern Heaven on Earth, had seen her!
Seeing Jing Xiaolu’s proud look, Yang Ming couldn’t help but criticize her. “Don’t think that because I didn’t deny it, it means recognition. I was just giving you face!”
Jing Xiaolu certainly knew Yang Ming’s thoughts. She would not be so narcissistic to think that Yang Ming would fall in love with her, but she acted dumb. “What deny and recognition? What are you talking about?”
Yang Ming looked at the innocent look of Jing Xiaolu. “Nothing! Don’t say anything about what you saw today.”
” En , I know.” Although Jing Xiaolu liked to be boastful, since Yang Ming instructed her, she would not spread it.
“Let’s go. Aren’t you still going to shop? Let’s continue.” Yang Ming nodded and walked with Jing Xiaolu in the direction of the elevator.
” Ding ,” the elevator door opened, but it was going up. Yang Ming just wanted to say something; Jing Xiaolu did not look at it, but she jumped directly into it. Yang Ming could not be helped; he had to follow Jing Xiaolu. The elevator had to come down anyway. Compared to waiting outside, staying inside the elevator was no different!
“Wait for the next one. This is full!” When Jing Xiaolu just entered, she heard a dissatisfied voice, and then she was pushed by a person in the elevator. She directly b.u.mped into Yang Ming who was behind her.
Yang Ming frowned. Who is so rude? Isn’t the elevator just full? Why you have to push? However, he did not care much. A lot of people were mad after drinking too much alcohol. Yang Ming could bother about each of them, right?
Jing Xiaolu was furious abruptly. She almost fell down being pushed by a man. How would she forgive the man? She opened the elevator forcibly, pointed at the people inside and scolded, “Who is it?” Which b*stard dared to push me? Isn’t there s.p.a.ce? Why do you say there is no s.p.a.ce?!”
“Forget it, Xiaolu. Probably a drunkard did it.” Yang Ming shook his head. It’s no wonder that Jing Xiaolu would be mad. Who would not be angry after being pushed by another for no reason!?
However, Jing Xiaolu did not want to let go. She snorted, “You have to at least apologize to me, right? What kind of att.i.tude is that?”
Yang Ming was amused after listening. Your att.i.tude does not seem to be better than them. However, now, she was a white-collar worker. She had changed a lot of bad habits.
“B*tch, scream for what? Scream again, and I will kill you!” The person in the elevator glared at her and threatened instead. “Hurry up and let go of the elevator door!”
“Brother Yang – Help!”
Yang Ming frowned and wanted to say something, but he heard a scream in the elevator…
