320: Chapter 6 Nothing is Better than You!

Zhao sister’s work hours are different from most MAS employees, as she still has classes to attend, so the filming of the video was rushed to the weekend.

“Cheng Daqi, how do you like my outfit today?”

Beautiful women are always pleasing to the eye, especially when the girl with the peach blossom eyes also has a pleasant voice, full of spirit and vitality.

CEO Cheng came back to his senses from the state of being sick of scrolling through videos and saw Zhao Hongjin, who had pushed open the door of the office.

“Ah, I don’t know how to describe it, if I say beautiful it seems too trivial, but I can’t think of anything appropriate right now.”

He rubbed his eyes and got up to pour himself another cup of coffee.

“Huh?

Has our relationship become so indifferent that you can’t even say it looks good?”

Little Zhao started to act pitiful, her tone mournful with a hint of bitterness in her eyes, leaving CEO Cheng stunned.

Seeing Cheng Daqi like a dumbstruck fool, not saying a word, and spilling his coffee, little Zhao seemed to realize something, feeling her heartbeat speed up.

What am I doing…

“Hey, are you an idiot?

You’ve spilled it!”

The little actress stopped acting and chided Cheng Daqi with a playful smile.

The girl from the south went from sorrowful to smiling, her swift change was like a brief blooming of an evening primrose, so beautiful and real that Cheng Daqi dared not look any longer.

He clumsily picked up a tissue to clean up the spill on the table, replying as he did so.

“It’s not that I’m clumsy, but that you’re too beautiful, Ah Zhao.

It’s a pity you’re not in the movies.

If you chose to go to a bigger stage, you might become a household name within a couple of years.”

Zhao sister just smiled and replied.

“Then can you give me a raise?”

She couldn’t forget about the base salary of two thousand a month, just like the blond white girl couldn’t forget about the two thousand dollars Cheng Daqi owed her.

But their personalities were very different, Zhao Hongjin would bring it up when she couldn’t let go, while Lisa would just brood and get angry to herself.

“I can’t, the company isn’t just mine, you have to understand my difficulties.

People say I do big business, but only I know how tough it is.

Every morning when I open my eyes, hundreds of mouths are waiting to be fed, I feel ashamed even thinking about rest.

To speak of it, I’m the boss, but in reality, I’m the one laboring away, working myself to the bone for those hundreds of mouths.”

CEO Cheng’s smooth talk effectively blocked little Zhao’s attempt to ask for a raise.

But who is Zhao sister?

She’s known in the neighborhood for her smarts, and she quickly spotted a loophole in CEO Cheng’s story.

“Heh, hundreds of mouths?

Are you rounding up Shanhaiguan and MAS together?

Even with rounding, that’s just a hundred, oh Cheng Daqi, some look human but are actually more like dogs.

Out of politeness, I won’t say who it is, hoping that person can reflect on themselves!” The girl with the peach blossom eyes playfully teased Cheng Daqi as she laughed.

CEO Cheng had his silky maneuvers, while Zhao sister had her sharp-eyed mental arithmetic.

This round, CEO Cheng was completely defeated!

He awkwardly handed the coffee to Zhao Hongjin, saying.

“Uh…

please have this coffee, this time it’s not instant.”

If I can’t outtalk you, then I’ll just have to use coffee to shut your mouth!

“Wow, American customs are really something else, esteemed CEO Cheng, has MAS become so poor that you resort to offering your guests coffee that you’ve drunk from?”

After gaining control, Zhao sister’s barrage never stopped.

Cheng Daqi awkwardly withdrew his outstretched hand holding the cup, he thought about explaining, but then gave up.

Forget it, it’s too draining, let it be destroyed.

“Sorry, I’ll pour you another cup, just a moment.”

CEO Cheng was actually clear about his feelings for Zhao Hongjin, but he hoped to keep their relationship firmly within the bounds of friendship, without crossing any lines.

“You know, last time I wanted an account to play with myself, you never gave me one in the end!”

Standing beside Cheng Daqi, Zhao complained about his broken promise.

“Ha, which last time?

Did that happen?”

That’s why they call him CEO Cheng, his ability to make memories disappear was definitely top-notch.

You say what?

I don’t know?

Angered by Cheng Daqi’s response, Zhao’s hair might as well have stood on end.

She had a deep understanding of the slick ways Cheng Daqi operated, but she didn’t expect to be outmaneuvered by him one day.

Damn it, you said if I gave you a shoulder massage, you’d give me an account.

I did the work, you enjoyed it, and now you’ve forgotten?

Even a dog isn’t as forgetful as you!

“No, make yourself clear, we had a deal last time.”

Zhao poked Cheng Daqi’s back with her finger—she was too classy.

If it were Temir, she would have started the fight long ago.

“Am I, of yesterday, related to today’s me?

Today’s me isn’t yesterday’s me, Ah Zhao, you’re overthinking it.”

CEO Cheng coolly responded, even quoting Heraclitus from Ancient Greece to justify his behavior.

“Bro, can’t you just be realistic?

We’re all materialists here.”

Zhao knew Cheng Daqi was joking, but she was still attracted by CEO Cheng’s words.

“Heh, Heraclitus was also the founder of dialectics, Ah Zhao, we should see things in a dialectical way.

The past is the past, now is now, so, I’m still very tired today, only…”

This time CEO Cheng didn’t even finish his request before being interrupted by the righteous fist of justice.

Of course, Zhao Hongjin didn’t really hit him, she barely used any strength.

“Chan, I’ve already designed the structure for the new company ADE and…”

The blonde woman entered, only to see Zhao Hongjin and Cheng Daqi happily ‘flirting and squabbling’.

Uh-huh, both CEO Cheng and Zhao Hongjin felt a strange sensation as though they were caught cheating.

The causal factors were complex; on one hand, they did feel an exceptional flutter of the heart, albeit slight.

On the other hand, Lisa had come to discuss work, looking entirely earnest and intensely focused, while the two were blatantly shirking their duties.

By contrast, Zhao and CEO Cheng’s gazes towards the blonde woman were even somewhat sheepish.

Lisa first greeted Zhao Hongjin, then saw Cheng Daqi serving coffee, obtained from her, to Zhao Hongjin…

The blonde woman wasn’t angry, just felt speechless.

Chan, sometimes you’re reliable like a lion, and sometimes you’re as sly as a fox, you really can be a handful.

“Let’s do it this way, as soon as possible, I can’t wait haha.”

The blonde woman took a deep look at Zhao Hongjin before she left, not that she really respected Cheng Daqi, but she truly admired Zhao Hongjin.

Zhao was a top-notch powerhouse, managing four short video accounts simultaneously, and Lisa respected such strength.

“So, Daqi, what’s your new company about?” Zhao asked.

CEO Cheng changed the subject.

“It’s also in the short video field, accounts can be matrixed, and MCN companies are possible.

Now let’s talk about massaging…

no, I meant, we can talk about which account you want.

Though I still insist that it’s better for you to entrust it to Shanhaiguan, I respect your wishes.”
