The level of scheming you've reached is just you being dumb, and now Xia Zhiqing's plans hit him in the head. Did she really think Cheng Qiaobei cared about her little bit of traffic?
In the afternoon, he met a few more clients, took a few calls from suppliers, and then noticed it was already past six.
He was just about to contact Chen Ningxi when Deng Yan knocked on his office door.
"Chairman Cheng, Mr. Cheng wants you to go over."
Cheng Qiaobei stood up and walked out, "What's the issue?"
Deng Yan said, "Xu Gao got into trouble outside, and Mr. Cheng wants you to handle it."
"Me? What about Chairman Xu?"
Deng Yan replied, "Chairman Xu can't handle it either."
Cheng Qiaobei frowned slightly but didn't show any emotion on his face, asking, "What trouble did he get into this time?"
Deng Yan whispered a few words in Cheng Qiaobei's ear, causing his expression to grow more solemn, "…Idiot! Does he think he's not living long enough?"
