Chapter 139 Uncle Cheng, this is Liu Jiayao

Cheng Yazhou was feeling anxious when Che Yingying, guessing that the time was about right, pushed the door open and came in.

Seeing Che Yingying enter, Cheng Yazhou's heart stirred, and he smiled at her, "Yingying, you've come at just the right time. I need to step out for a moment, so can you keep Manager Zhang company and have a couple of drinks for me?"

As he spoke, Cheng Yazhou even gave Che Yingying a meaningful look. Although Che Yingying was a simple girl from the countryside, after working a few years, she had come to understand many of the tricks of the trade. Seeing this, she knew that Cheng Yazhou must not have reached an agreement with Zhang Huowang, so she nodded obediently and said, "Hehe, Manager Zhang is my superior, Uncle, even if you hadn't asked, I would have ensured our leader eats well and drinks well!"

"Haha, look at this brain of mine!" Cheng Yazhou said, exaggeratingly slapping his own head, then he said to Zhang Huowang, "Manager Zhang, excuse me for a moment, I have to step away."

Zhang Huowang nodded indifferently, as if he didn't know what Cheng Yazhou really was about to do.

When Cheng Yazhou left the private room, he pulled out his wallet to look inside and couldn't help feeling anxious.

Because he hadn't expected Zhang Huowang to be so greedy, he hadn't prepared enough cash. And from his many years' experience, he knew that with Zhang Huowang's large appetite, adding a few thousand yuan would definitely not suffice; at least double was necessary or, to be safe, it would be best to have even more. But the problem was that the banks were closed, and money could only be withdrawn from ATMs, which had a daily limit. His card's daily withdrawal limit was a maximum of five thousand yuan, which was clearly not enough.

Just as he was growing desperate, Cheng Yazhou suddenly thought of Ge Dongxu and hurriedly looked around the hall. With that one look, he indeed saw Ge Dongxu.

Cheng Yazhou was overjoyed and quickly walked over.

"Uncle Cheng?" Ge Dongxu, seeing Cheng Yazhou walking towards him with an anxious expression, obviously had something to discuss with him, felt quite surprised and quickly stood up saying, "Sister, a friend of mine might need to talk to me about something."

"Your friend?" Liu Jiayao swiftly turned to look behind her and saw Cheng Yazhou rushing over.

"I am Cheng Yazhou, Dongxu's friend, and you must be Dongxu's friend too, sorry to intrude, I have some urgent matters to discuss with Dongxu." Before Ge Dongxu could stand up, Cheng Yazhou, having noticed Liu Jiayao, was initially stunned, clearly taken aback by Liu Jiayao's beauty and poise. But remembering that Che Yingying was covering for him with Zhang Huowang in the private room, and that time was of the essence, he couldn't afford to think too much about how beautiful and poised Ge Dongxu's friend was. He hurriedly apologized to Liu Jiayao without waiting for her response and already pulled Ge Dongxu aside.

"What's the matter, Uncle Cheng?" Ge Dongxu asked with a puzzled face.

"Do you have five thousand yuan in your card?" Cheng Yazhou asked instead of answering.

"Yeah!" Ge Dongxu nodded, his expression becoming even more puzzled.

"That's good. Can you leave now, or are you not able to? If you can leave, that would be best. I'll give you my bank card, you use your card along with mine, withdraw five thousand from each, and then come find me in the private room. If you can't leave now, just give me your bank card." Cheng Yazhou hurriedly instructed, not even thinking to explain to Ge Dongxu.

"What do you need so much money for? Oh, right, is it for that Manager Zhang wanting a kickback? His appetite is way too big! Forget it Uncle Cheng, if we can do this business deal then let's do it, but we should still do business above board in the future. A little bit of social interaction is still acceptable, but we shouldn't deal with someone who bites off more than they can chew like this," Ge Dongxu said, first in shock, then understanding quickly and speaking with a frown.

"Don't be so idealistic, Uncle understands these things. To tell you the truth, that Zhang Huowang is the purchasing manager for Qinglan Cosmetics. Just think about it, Qinglan Cosmetics is such a big company, and they sell millions of bottles of cosmetics every year. If we get this order, even if our laser branding business declines later on, we will still have a steady income of profit. What's this expense in comparison? It's also my fault for thinking too simply at the start and only preparing ten thousand yuan. If I had known, I would have prepared more." Cheng Yazhou explained. Continue your journey with empire

"You're saying that Zhang Huowang is the manager of Qinglan Cosmetics' procurement department?" Ge Dongxu's expression suddenly became animated upon hearing this.

He never dreamt that the deal Cheng Yazhou was running tonight would involve Qinglan Cosmetics. If he had known earlier, there wouldn't have been any need to rush around. The CEO of Qinglan Cosmetics was having dinner with him right now!

"Yes, is there a problem?" Seeing Ge Dongxu's expression, which did not seem to be one of being awestruck by the grandeur of Qinglan Cosmetics, but rather an odd one, Cheng Yazhou couldn't help but ask in surprised bewilderment.

Without answering, Ge Dongxu turned to look at Liu Jiayao, whose pretty face now wore a hint of anger.

Although she hadn't deliberately eavesdropped on their conversation, it was taking place nearby, and it just so happened to involve Qinglan Cosmetics, so naturally, she paid some attention to it.

Upon hearing bits of it, with Liu Jiayao's high intelligence, she easily surmised what was happening.

Thinking about how her company's staff not only asked for kickbacks from Ge Dongxu's friend but also had the audacity to make exorbitant demands, she naturally felt very annoyed and embarrassed.

At that moment, Liu Jiayao had not yet realized that Ge Dongxu and Cheng Yazhou were business partners; otherwise, she would have been even more angry.

Seeing Ge Dongxu turn to look at Liu Jiayao, Cheng Yazhou subconsciously followed his gaze, but felt somewhat perplexed. He couldn't fathom why Ge Dongxu was looking at Liu Jiayao at this moment.

When he saw the trace of anger on Liu Jiayao's face, Cheng Yazhou felt even more strange. He wondered what could've possibly upset such a beautiful girl. Was it simply because he had interrupted them?

"I'm sorry, Mr. Cheng, for not recognizing a person's true character, which has led to quite an embarrassment. You're in the laser trademark business, right? Rest assured, as long as the quality is up to standard, since you're Dongxu's friend, we will certainly let you handle this business," Liu Jiayao said somewhat awkwardly as Cheng Yazhou looked towards her.

"What is this about?" Cheng Yazhou became even more puzzled upon hearing this.

"Uncle Cheng, this is Liu Jiayao, the CEO of Qinglan Cosmetics Company. You didn't tell me that Zhang Huowang was from Qinglan Company before. If I had known you were chasing this deal, then there wouldn't have been any need for all this trouble!" Ge Dongxu explained hurriedly upon seeing Cheng Yazhou's puzzled face.

"What, you, you're the CEO of Qinglan Cosmetics Company, Ms. Liu?" Even though Cheng Yazhou was quite worldly, he was still so startled by the revelation that he stumbled over his words.

After all, Qinglan Cosmetics Company had annual sales of hundreds of millions! That figure was absolutely astronomical to Cheng Yazhou.

How could Cheng Yazhou not feel nervous facing her? Of course, amid the nervousness there was even more shock.

He could never have imagined that Ge Dongxu's friend he mentioned would turn out to be the CEO of Qinglan Cosmetics Company! If he had known about the deal beforehand, there would have been no need for him to step in at all!
