Chapter 147: Buttering Me Up?
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Xing Shu was his mistress. How could she be bullied by others? Moreover, something so major happened last night, but Xing Shu did not even call him. Cheng Lang could not help but think about how Xing Shu and Nie Xi had praised Nie Heng for being generous in front of him just now. He could not help but wonder if he was doing badly. He had never had a mistress before and did not know how to keep one. He had zero experience.
Xing Shu was not the type to take the initiative to beg others. She was used to being alone and relied on herself for everything. This realization made Cheng Lang very uncomfortable. He even thought that he would go back and properly research on how to keep a mistress.
Xing Shu sat at the side, her mind blank. After a long time, she looked up at Cheng Lang, who was going over the documents again. His hair was enveloped by the sunlight that shone in from outside, as if it was glowing. His skin was fair… His eyelashes were long… His taut wrist bones were sharp. Such a person actually said that he wanted to be her backing?
Xing Shu pursed her lips. After a long time, she said softly, “If I cause trouble at tomorrow’s banquet…” Before she could finish speaking, she heard Cheng Lang say, “If you’re bullied, I’ll be the one who loses face.”
Xing Shu regarded his reply with mirth. Her lips curved into a smile for a while before she said, “Thank you. I can prepare more detailed information about
MOOL for you, or I can go overseas and see if there are any companies worth Investing m. president cneng, I nave notmng to repay you witn. I can only work harder at work.” After saying that, she picked up the glass of water beside her. “President Cheng, are you thirsty? Do you want some water?”
Cheng Lang smiled. He took the glass of water and glanced at Xing Shu.
“Buttering me up?”
Xing Shu rolled her eyes. Duh…
In Cheng Lang’s opinion, this was the best thing about Xing Shu. Be it buttering him up or wheedling, she did it graciously and unabashedly. When Jian Yaochuan came out with a plate, he saw Cheng Lang looking at Xing Shu with a smile. Xing Shu sat beside him and said something. The corners of her eyes were raised, and her lips were rosy.
Jian Yaochuan quickly retracted his gaze and did not dare to look again. After the chef finished cooking, he left with the chef.
This was the first time Xing Shu had enjoyed the treatment of a
Michelin-starred chef coming to her house to cook. After eating and drinking her fill, she called the hospital to ask about Feng Daxiang’s condition. Knowing that the director was awake, she heaved a sigh of relief and began to contact the charity organization.
The charity organization had been in contact with Xing Shu through her cell phone number. When they saw Xing Shu calling, their attitude was very polite.
“Miss Xing, you’ve already transferred this month’s funds.”
Xing Shu said, “I know. I just want to ask, you’ve always called me Miss Xing. Do you know my full name?”
The charity organization was stunned for a moment. “Isn’t it Miss Xing Linlin?”
Xing Shu sneered. The charity organization could not be blamed for this. After all, she had the same surname as Xing Linlin. The charity organization had always called her “Miss Xing”, but they did not know that her name was Xing Shu.
Xing Shu said, “My name is Xing Shu. Back then, I was too busy with work, so I asked Xing Linlin to help me with the donation paperwork. You should have surveillance cameras over there, right?”
This was also the first time the charity organization had encountered such a thing. They did not expect the donor’s name to be wrong. He said, “Miss Xing, we will furnish all the recordings. If there’s a need, I’ll prepare a copy for you now.”
“Okay.” Xing Shu hung up. She rubbed the space between her eyebrows and called the hospital again. Although Feng Daxiang was already awake, he was not in good spirits after knowing that he would be spending the rest of his life in a wheelchair. Xing Shu still had tens of millions of yuan in her hands, which could be used to relocate the welfare home. Chen Ru would not let go of that piece of land, but Xing Shu had the contract and would not let herself get the short end of the stick.
Before Xing Shu could speak, Cheng Lang took the initiative to ask, “Do you need a lavvyer?”
Xing Shu nodded.
“Cheng Corporation Group’s legal department. Pick one that you like.” Cheng
Lang’s tone was indifferent as he Dut awav the documents. “As for the new location of the welfare home, ask Jian Yaochuan.”
The legal department of Cheng Corporation Group was known for being invincible. It was rumored that they had never lost a case since their first lawsuit. With the legal department on her side, she would win no matter how difficult the lawsuit was. With them on Xing Shu’s side, Chen Ru would not be able to bully her.
Xing Shu thought about it and did not refuse. “Thank you.” As she spoke, the two of them walked out side by side. Just as they reached the door, they met the neighbor from last night..
