Chapter 218: Chapter 218: He Is Someone You Can Only Look Up To!

Lin Cheng didn’t take the middle-aged man’s contempt to heart since all his attention was focused on the title Yuan Yi had just used for the man.

"What did you just call him? Husband?"

Yuan Yi held the middle-aged man even tighter, "That’s right, Old Liu and I have already agreed, we’re going to get our marriage license next week. Is there any problem with me calling him husband now?"

Lin Cheng was stunned. Yuan Yi had dumped him, then broken up with Peng Bin, and now it was this Old Liu.

In just the span of a week, she had already switched boyfriends three times!

"Well then, congratulations to you both!"

Lin Cheng was thoroughly disappointed in Yuan Yi. Hearing that she was getting married, he didn’t feel much anymore, having become somewhat numb.

Old Liu, as if deliberately proclaiming his ownership, hugged Yuan Yi tightly to his chest and said smugly to Lin Cheng, "You should indeed congratulate us, congratulate Yuan Yi for not marrying a loser like you, but marrying a successful man like me!"

Yuan Yi went up to Lin Cheng, her face full of provocation, "Lin Cheng, I told you, without you I could definitely find a richer man, lead a better life. Now, I’ve done just that!"

"Do you know who Old Liu is? Let me tell you, Old Liu is an executive of a listed company, with an annual salary of one million! Such a person is a true success. Can you compare with that?"

Old Liu scoffed, disdainfully saying, "As if this kind of loser is worthy of comparing to me? With my achievements now, he won’t catch up to me, not in this lifetime, or the next. Comparing him to me? I’d say that’s devaluing myself!"

Yuan Yi quickly amended her words, "Right, right, right, he shouldn’t even dream of being a success in his next life. His type of person is doomed to always stay at the bottom of society!"

To curry favor with Old Liu, Yuan Yi desperately denigrated Lin Cheng, completely disregarding the years of friendship between them.

But just at that moment, a voice suddenly came from outside.

"No need for the next life, Lin Cheng is about to become someone you can only look up to!"

Yuan Yi and Old Liu were startled and turned to look, only to see a slim figure already standing behind them, it was Chen Xuan!

Old Liu said with contempt, "Who the hell are you, we’re talking here, did anyone ask for your opinion!"

Yuan Yi’s face changed upon seeing Chen Xuan.

She had personally witnessed how Chen Xuan had beaten up Peng Bin; in Yuan Yi’s view, the man before her was simply a maniac.

"You’ve got some nerve, showing up in Huai City again. You beat up Young Master Peng last time, aren’t you afraid he’ll come after you for revenge?"

Chen Xuan smiled faintly, "Come after me for revenge? Why don’t you ask him if he still dares?"

Last time, Peng Bin, along with his old man Peng Sankuang, had been forced to work as laborers for Chen Xuan for an entire day, cleaning Chen Xuan’s office inside and out before daring to leave. Now, even if you gave them ten times the courage, they probably wouldn’t dare to trouble Chen Xuan again.

Yuan Yi didn’t understand and simply took Chen Xuan’s words as empty bragging.

Then, something occurred to her, and she asked, "What did you mean by that statement? Become someone we look up to? You think this loser can? Seems like you really don’t understand your friend Lin Cheng at all!"

"Ever since he graduated, he’s changed five or six jobs. In his last company, even after several years, he was just a minor team leader, earning only six or seven thousand a month."

"With that little ability, he could never turn his life around. You’re actually expecting him to become someone we look up to? You must be joking, right? Hahaha..."

Old Liu also had a face full of mockery, "It’s only you lot, the bottom dwellers, who daydream about soaring to the sky, utterly ridiculous!"

Chen Xuan smiled faintly, "Daydreaming? Oh? Lin Cheng, haven’t you told them about being appointed as division director by Yaowang Corporation yet?"

"Yaowang Corporation? Division director?" Old Liu and Yuan Yi were instantly dumbfounded.

Yaowang Corporation is the leading enterprise in Huai City and also the biggest pharmaceutical company there; they had naturally heard of it.

Now, Chen Xuan claimed that Lin Cheng was going to become a department director at Yaowang Corporation, which was simply unbelievable.

Old Liu sneered, "What kind of joke is this? He wishes to be a department director at Yaowang Corporation? He probably doesn’t even qualify to enter Yaowang Corporation!"

Although Old Liu’s company was also listed, it was nothing compared to a giant like Yaowang Corporation—it was simply worlds apart.

In fact, Old Liu’s company largely depended on the nourishment from Yaowang Corporation to survive.

He could naturally not accept someone like Lin Cheng, a nobody, becoming someone more dignified than himself.

Yuan Yi also laughed coldly, "Even if you’re boasting, at least draft some believable lies, please. Do you know what qualifications are required to be a department director at Yaowang Corporation? At the very least, one has to be a graduate from a key university or even a returnee from a famous overseas university to have such qualifications!"

"With what little ability Lin Cheng has, he wishes to be a department director at Yaowang Corporation? I think he’d better wait for his next life!"

Not just Old Liu and Yuan Yi, even Lin Cheng showed a look of surprise on his face when he heard Chen Xuan’s words.

He knew Chen Xuan said this to help him save face, but such words seemed too exaggerated...

Faced with the ridicule from Old Liu and Yuan Yi, Chen Xuan didn’t take it to heart.

"It doesn’t matter if you don’t believe it, because I heard that the person in charge of Yaowang Corporation is coming personally later to invite Lin Cheng to start working at Yaowang Corporation!"

"Whether I’m bluffing or not, you’ll find out soon enough."

Old Liu and Yuan Yi looked at each other with scoffs.

A lowly commoner from the bottom of society, expecting the person in charge of Yaowang Corporation to come and invite him personally?

They must be dreaming!

Chen Xuan glanced at his watch, raising an eyebrow, "Oh, seems like the time is almost up."

No sooner had he finished speaking.

Beep beep beep!

Sounds of car horns came from outside the door.

Old Liu, Yuan Yi, and the others hurried outside to look, only to be stunned by the scene before them.

They saw that in the alley in front of the door, over a dozen luxury cars each worth five or six million yuan were lined up.

From the leading Lincoln, worth ten million, a man in a suit exited amidst a throng of subordinates.

He approached the entrance of the rental house, and with a solemn face, called into it: "I am Yu Youcheng, the General Manager of Yaowang Corporation, specially here to personally recruit Mr. Lin Cheng as the Director of our Marketing Department! With an annual salary of five million!"

Boom!

Old Liu and Yuan Yi were struck as if by lightning upon hearing these words, completely frozen in place.

Director of the Marketing Department of Yaowang Corporation?

With an annual salary of five million?

Chen Xuan hadn’t lied; Lin Cheng, this lowly commoner, had indeed become an existence they could only look up to!
