CHAPTER 410: CHAPTER 402: FORTUNE FAVORS THE BOLD

The naive rich uncle simply cannot be allowed to flow into the hands of outsiders.

Just so happens, she had a classmate who was in good terms with her and still single. A few days ago, he mentioned that he wanted her to help him find a naive rich guy, preferably older and someone who is tender and caring, to be his boyfriend.

Isn’t this just a perfect coincidence!

The naive rich uncle is a perfect match!

Chen Xixi suddenly thought of something and looked at Zhou Jinyuan, asking, "Does your family still collaborate with the Xu Family?"

"It’s about to end."

Chen Xixi was relieved: "That’s good, to avoid any problems that might crop up with the Xu Family affecting your family."

"But there’s still something I’m concerned about."

Chen Xixi looked at Zhou Jinyuan with confusion: "What’s the issue?"

Zhou Jinyuan spoke unhurriedly: "You’ve been to my house, and you’ve met my parents. I’ve also been promoted. So when can I openly have the right to have a boyfriend outside?"

Chen Xixi pondered for a moment: "Just wait a little longer, wait until I move behind the scenes. If our relationship remains this stable, then we’ll go public."

Although the matter with the Xu Family was no longer an obstacle between them, they had just started dating and didn’t know how long they could keep this up.

After all, there’s a big gap between them and there would be many problems to face in the future.

As Chen Xixi spoke, she suddenly became very serious. She looked at Zhou Jinyuan as if she could see through everything and sternly asked, "Right, is there something you haven’t told me?"

Zhou Jinyuan didn’t really have anything to hide from Chen Xixi, so he adopted an open demeanor, ready for her interrogation.

But just as he was half-way through being forthcoming, he suddenly remembered something he seemed about to forget. The next second, he didn’t seem as forthcoming anymore.

He indeed had something to hide from Chen Xixi.

That was the fact that he had a foolish nephew.

The fact that Jin Cheng was his nephew, he had never told Chen Xixi.

Because Chen Xixi always disliked Jin Cheng, she also disliked Jin Cheng’s naive rich uncle.

In order to maintain a good impression in front of Chen Xixi, he never admitted this to her.

Zhou Jinyuan straightforwardly confessed: "You know already? I didn’t mean to hide it from you, I just didn’t want you to overthink and affect your impression of me."

Chen Xixi wasn’t angry, she smiled: "What’s there to overthink? And now, after getting to know you more, I think you’re a very good person."

Chen Xixi thought that Zhou Jinyuan was probably worried that if she found out he was the true owner of Nanxing Entertainment, she might think he approached her on purpose or wanted to take advantage of her, which could affect the image she had of him in her heart.

Zhou Jinyuan probably did not want to create such a deliberate encounter, wanting to naturally integrate into her life and let her slowly accept his presence.

Chen Xixi spoke sensibly: "You’re overthinking it, next time you can tell me directly about such things. Although I’m not particularly smart, I’m not naive either, I can discern those who sincerely treat me well."

Then, Chen Xixi reached out and patted Zhou Jinyuan’s shoulder, speaking earnestly: "Especially since you’re rich. Just this alone, you’ve already beaten 99% of men in the world, so you should have confidence in yourself! What you need to do now is to stay the course, work well on your business, and don’t go bankrupt! Let me truly experience what it’s like to be a lady of a wealthy household!"

Zhou Jinyuan let out a light laugh: "You actually just want to date my money, right?"

Chen Xixi hastily denied it: "Am I that kind of vulgar person? Money is external; you also have intrinsic qualities, and your intrinsic qualities are also excellent."

"What intrinsic qualities do I have?"

"Your intrinsic quality is..." Chen Xixi deliberately dragged out her voice, slowly leaned in toward Zhou Jinyuan, looked up at him with a smile and said: "Being adept at expressing how much you like me in various ways, that’s enough."

The honest expression of his affection was what she liked most about him.

Zhou Jinyuan was slightly taken aback by Chen Xixi’s sudden closeness and her flirtatious-like sweet talk.

This wasn’t like Chen Xixi at all.

The old Chen Xixi, no matter how he hinted or showed directly, she would never say such things.

Chen Xixi today suddenly seemed to slip into girlfriend mode, catching him a bit off guard.

Zhou Jinyuan suddenly stretched out his hand to wrap around her waist, pulling her close to his side, and the distance between them closed instantly, his eyes filled with a gentle smile.

He asked in a low voice, "Is this the kind of experience that comes with being an official boyfriend?"

Chen Xixi’s eyes brimmed with confusion: "What kind of experience is this?"

Chen Xixi had no idea how long he had been looking forward to this day, so naturally, she didn’t understand his feelings.

Nor did she understand the excitement he felt inside as he watched a piece of wood gradually blossom into flowers.

Chen Mutou was still pondering, what experience had he gone through?

What exactly had she said just now that made this big brother so thrilled?

The street scenes outside the car flashed by swiftly.

Inside the car, the misunderstandings between the two, who were not on the same wavelength, were thus beautifully resolved.

Both sides were very satisfied, and after opening their hearts to each other, they both felt that their relationship had moved to a new level.

...

Zheng He had been idling at home for some time now; he was too bored, as there were no recent trending topics about him online, and Xu Nianying wasn’t giving him any tasks. He suddenly felt as if he’d been forgotten by the whole world.

Accustomed to frequently being in the public eye, suddenly being alone didn’t sit well with him, and he began to feel a bit lonely.

So he called Xu Nianying’s assistant to see if there were any tasks for him, hoping to earn an extra bit of income.

But when he dialed the number on the business card given to him by Xu Nianying’s assistant, he was surprised to find that he had blacklisted the assistant’s number!

Piecing together the timing of the calls.

Zheng He vaguely remembered, the strange number had called him before, saying that President Xu had a big business proposition to discuss with him...

"!!!"

He almost missed out on a huge deal!

It seems he couldn’t follow Chen Xixi’s approach after all; he would have missed out on a real big business opportunity!

After some thought, Zheng He also uninstalled the anti-fraud app.

There’s a saying that fortune comes with risks, as long as he is careful, that should do the job!

Otherwise, what if he missed out on another real big business opportunity next time!

Zheng He called Xu Nianying’s assistant, hoping the assistant would inquire if President Xu had anything for him to do—he could even offer a discount—but the assistant replied in a stern and official tone, "President Xu has no other tasks for you. She only asks that you take care of the matter with Chen Xixi quickly."

Zheng He felt a little disappointed inside but he loudly peddled himself, "I have many other uses, for example, I have good relations with Crown Prince Wan Chen of Beile, and also Han Qianyi, Jin Cheng, President Zhou..."

He named everyone he could possibly implicate, one by one.

But the assistant coldly said, "President Xu doesn’t need that at the moment."

"Alright then..."

Zheng He was about to hang up the phone when the assistant’s voice suddenly came through again, "Wait, did you say just now that you also have a good relationship with President Zhou?"

"Yes, I did!"

"President Xu has suddenly come up with an assignment, I don’t know if you’re willing to take it."

"What task?"

"Seduce President Zhou."

"!!!"
