477: Chapter 75 Out of Control_2 477: Chapter 75 Out of Control_2 “Why?”
“Your classmates are young people of your age; their thoughts might be quite radical and could change on a whim.
Maybe they’re hot-headed today, and cold tomorrow.”
Cheng Daqi tipped the waiter and answered while walking away.
“So troublesome…”
“Of course, it’s troublesome; millions aren’t a small sum.
Just do your best and don’t feel pressured, it’s normal to fail.
I have to go meet Gru later, so I won’t see you out.
Send me a message when you get home.”
After giving Ah Zhao a heads-up, CEO Cheng prepared to take off.
“Wait a minute, I saw on the news the day before yesterday, did Gru get married?”
Zhao Hongjin was actually referring to the sheriff’s transgender wife, but she was too embarrassed to say it directly—it felt a bit gossipy, and she didn’t want CEO Cheng to think of her as a busybody.
But if Cheng Daqi left just like that, she’d feel somewhat dissatisfied, so she brought up the topic hastily.
“Yeah, he married a transgender person.
You don’t know; his wife’s arms are thicker than your legs.
Mi’er and I were there, we almost couldn’t hold back.”
Standing on the restaurant’s steps, CEO Cheng lit a cigarette and shared the day’s experience with Ah Zhao.
“Some say he married the transgender person to enter politics, is that true?”
Zhao Hongjin hugged her coat and leaned against the red Chinese-style pillar, her eyes gleaming as she looked at CEO Cheng.
They had been too busy to have a conversation like tonight’s for a long time.
“No, Mi’er and I think that he’s making a commitment.
Compared to the political arena, Gru cares more about his influence over the LAPD.
Once the commitment is made, he’ll be one of Niu Sen’s own, and he might sleep a bit more soundly.”
CEO Cheng analyzed Gru with furrowed brows; the man was fierce and a key player in the chess game of the West Coast.
“Daqi, you should smoke less, it’s bad for your lungs.”
“Hahaha, I actually recommend you try it, Ah Zhao.
This thing can help soothe your mind and it’s quite refreshing.”
“What?
Aren’t friends supposed to encourage each other?
And here you are, trying to drag me down with you.”
“How is it dragging you down?
Yes, smoking isn’t healthy, but breathing, to some extent, isn’t healthy either.
There are too many unhealthy things we can’t avoid.”
Nonsense, Zhao Hongjin knew that CEO Cheng was just talking nonsense again.
She tilted her head and pondered for a moment, then said.
“Let me try.”
“What?”
“Didn’t you recommend I try it?”
“I was just talking nonsense.”
CEO Cheng was slightly taken aback and explained.
“You say I shouldn’t smoke, but I can’t be bothered to explain why I need them.
So, I just found an excuse.”
It seemed that the more he explained, the less convincing he became, so CEO Cheng added.
“Ah Zhao, while it’s an excuse, it actually does reflect a true choice of mine, just that…”
“I don’t mind the trouble, take your time.”
Ah Zhao replied gently, and CEO Cheng felt at that moment he could be captured by her.
So difficult.
“What’s there to talk about?
It’s a minor detail.
Let’s leave it at that for today; I still have to meet with Gru.”
CEO Cheng greased his heels to slip away.
It wasn’t he was running away from his feelings; it was simply that time was of the essence, and he couldn’t keep a great woman waiting.
He was destined to jump into the quagmire of America and wrestle with the bastards there.
And Ah Zhao was like a bright and beautiful azure bird.
She belonged to the sky and shouldn’t sink into the mire with him.
A man on the run always looks especially awkward.
CEO Cheng ran so fast that he stumbled down the stairs.
Ah Zhao first laughed at CEO Cheng’s clumsiness, then sighed.
Daqi, oh Daqi, what are you thinking?
But the career-driven protagonist Zhao Hongjin didn’t dwell on these thoughts for long; after a long day, all she wanted to do was go home and sleep.
When Danze woke her in the passenger seat, she realized that Cheng Daqi might be even more tired than she was.
“What time does your boss start work in the morning?”
Danze was surprised that the boss’s girl would ask him such a question; he responded instinctively.
“Six o’clock?
I usually get up at seven, but he has a company in Hua Country and often has early meetings.
Every time I see him, he has been working for a long time already, just in the study at home, not yet at the office.”
A smart girl usually isn’t bad at math; fifteen hours from morning to evening, excluding sleep, made CEO Cheng’s working intensity comparable to 007’s.
It was already eleven, and he was still about to meet with Gru.
Meet with Gru?
Zhao Hongjin fell into deep thought.
—————–
Gru and CEO Cheng were truly well-matched adversaries.
This top corrupt cop was evidently planning a strong comeback in the second round.
Merely for marrying a transgender wife, Mr.
Gru already had unlimited respect from CEO Cheng.
Forming an alliance through marriage, making a commitment, charming with a minority spouse—appearing like a Joker but actually a cunning emperor victorious in confusion.
Within the boundaries of the law, on the edge of human moral baseline, Gru had pushed his advantages to the limit.
“Cheng, welcome.
How come Mi’er didn’t come with you?”
“It’s too late, she went to sleep first.”
“Please, have a seat.
I’ve been wanting to schedule a time with you, but it never seemed to work out.”
“Mr.
Gru, are you looking for me for a reason?”
Yes, tonight’s meeting was initiated by Gru.
Even though CEO Cheng didn’t know what this bastard was up to, he also wanted to talk about a new collaboration.
For instance, how to take down a big scammer and make a profit together.
“Cheng, Thor is dead, did you know?”
The top corrupt cop’s words tonight were somewhat meaningful; he wasn’t expressing submission, but rather applying pressure to CEO Cheng.
