Chapter 639: Hiring You at a High Price
l lose all face, and so will the He family! As long as He Hanchuan gives in, I'll send you abroad immediately. No matter how long He's reach is, his hand can’t stretch that far.”It was a little past 2...In a short while, Mama Ma brought out the delicious fried chicken. She lifted the lid, and the aroma filled the air.
"Come and give it a try, kids don't judge my shop by its size, but the secret honey sauce I make myself is really popular. It hasn't changed taste in all these years."
Liu Liang rolled up his sleeves and tore off a drumstick, eating it with relish, his mouth full of oil.
"Wow, this is so good, Ma Po! Your cooking is still as amazing as ever!"
Grandma was praised and her face blushed, chuckling softly. "You child, you have such a sweet mouth! I'm so old now, I don't have much desire for this shop anymore. As long as I see all of you kids coming to visit, I feel very content."
"Then I'll come here every day from now on, and don't mind me bothering you then!" Liu Liang smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners. He was very sweet-talking, causing Mapo to smile non-stop.
"Then, I'm afraid you'll get tired of it!"
Menglan lightly patted Liu Liang's head, took out a tissue and wiped the corner of his lips for him. Looking at her younger brother's heartfelt smile, her long-suppressed mood also improved.
Even some regret, not taking him out for a walk earlier.
But luckily, her brother's condition has stabilized now, and she can slowly make amends for it in the future.
"Grandma Ma, a serving of spicy and sweet fried chicken!" A man's joyful voice suddenly rang out in the small shop.
Meng Lan was busy taking care of her younger brother and didn't look back.
In a short while, Grandma Ma lifted the curtain and walked out of the kitchen with a spatula in hand. She spoke excitedly, "Oh, what wind brought you here, little Xi"
"Who knows, maybe I had a hunch I'd run into beauties here and couldn't help but come over," the man chuckled playfully. There were plenty of open spots in the shop, yet he deliberately chose to sit beside Menglan.
Hearing the sound, Menglan's hand clutching the tissue stopped abruptly. She seemed to have anticipated something, turning her head to look at the man beside her.
"Zheng the judge How did you get here"
"Isn't that strange"
Zheng Xi leaned back in his chair, the exaggerated pale blue outfit looking surprisingly natural on him. He smiled and replied, "That Sanzhong across the street is also my alma mater. When I was in school, this fried chicken shop owned by Grandma Ma was already very popular. Now that I'm back in Beijing, I still come here to eat when I have nothing to do."
"Okay."
Meng Lan faintly agreed, almost forgetting that Zheng Xi was Wang Guangkun's biological son!
Grandma Ma brought the steaming fried chicken to Zheng Xi's face. He tore at the drumstick and took a big bite, his eyes squinting with contentment. "It's still the same taste as before."
Menglan remained cautious around Zheng Xi, not saying much.
"But Liu Liang looked curiously intrigued and warmly chimed in, "That means we're alumni now, big brother. What do you do for a living"
He casually replied, "I started a small clothing design company."
Liu Liang was stunned for a moment, then turned to Menglan and smiled even more happily, "Really Is yours that popular My sister is also a fashion designer, she's amazing..."
"Liangliang," Menglan spoke up just in time, tearing off another chicken leg and stuffing it into his mouth. "Don't talk nonsense, eat your meal properly."
This little punk, almost blew her cover.
"Mmm~" Liangliang pouted and nibbled on her chicken leg, looking wronged.
Zheng Xi burst into a hearty laugh, raising his arm lazily to rest against the back of the chair and sighing inwardly.
"Your sister is a promising talent. She received a lot of attention from brands at the on-site painting competition last time. I just wanted to know if I had the honor of inviting her to our company for an interview"
"Really, sis, you're amazing."
Children are always very excited about small achievements, but Menglan seemed very calm and didn't speak.
Then Zheng Xi calmly finished the fried chicken, wiped his fingers clean, and seriously made a five with his fingers. "Five million, one interview, plus designing a set of spring dresses, how about that"
Hearing this huge number, Liu Liang gasped sharply.
Meng Lan suppressed the surprise in her heart, took a sip of tea, and calmly opened her mouth, "Judge Zheng, you really have a good eye for me."
"You're amazing, I doubt you know how popular you are online Signing you means my company will be hot too."
Zheng Xi smiled and stood up, stretching lazily. He spoke slowly, "I can give you time to consider, but don't take too long. Though I admire you, when the hype dies down, you won't be worth this price."
He spoke in the gentlest of voices, yet uttered the cruellest words. Menglan listened, already accustomed to it. In this day and age, as long as you're in the spotlight, traffic is king.
After Zheng Xi left, Liu Liang was also pushed by the bodyguard to the restroom.
After Dream Orchid calmed down, a flicker of hesitation flashed in her eyes!
She had heard about Zheng Xi's company, a place where countless graduates desperately wanted to get in but couldn't. The conditions he offered were very attractive, and she was very interested in working there.
As soon as she thought of her younger brother who hadn't fully recovered, she gritted her teeth and swallowed it back down.
Nothing compares to being with my younger brother!
On the other side, Zheng Xi finished using the restroom and hummed a little tune as he walked to the mirror. He turned on the faucet, wet his hands, and smoothed down his messy bangs. He admired his handsome face in the mirror.
"Big brother," the voice suddenly appeared, startling Zheng Xi to raise her orchid finger.
Only seeing, Liu Liang pushed his wheelchair into the restroom and stopped in front of him. He looked at him with a grave expression, but his voice was laced with a hint of pleading.
“Could I have your contact information”
The Wang Family
These past few days, Wang Zhi Shan tried every way to contact Feng Mu, wanting to make an appointment with him to explain what happened at the dinner party. However, he was rejected by various excuses of being busy. Today, when she called again, no one answered!
She was so angry that her face changed color. She smashed all the teacups in the living room to the ground, and the loud noise also attracted Xu Hui's attention. She walked down from upstairs with a face mask on.
"Oh, my precious daughter, what's wrong with you"
"Mom~"
Wang Zhishan ran into her arms, tears streaming down her face. She cried, "Brother Feng isn't answering my calls. He must be taking care of that bitch! Woooo, he seems… annoyed with me!"
"This little punk, he really thinks he's gotten cocky, daring to ignore our Wang family"
Xu Hui hugged Wang ZhiShan tightly, her eyes twinkled, and she immediately had an idea. She leaned into her ear and whispered, "Don't rush, ShanShan. Men like Feng Mu are only bound by interests. This is also something that despicable person can never compare to you in his lifetime. Recently, the Xijiao project won by the Wang Group has caught Feng Mu's attention..."
According to Xu Hui's words, Wang Zhi Shan's face immediately showed excitement. She wiped away her tears and went upstairs to call Chen Yi, Feng Mu's assistant, to discuss a cooperation.
