117: Chapter 118 His Name is Tang Zhong!

Tang Zhong ended his phone call and walked right back into the conference room.

At that moment, Wu Xiujun sat there, smugly lifting his head, paying no mind to anyone else in the room.

Zhou Qiang continued to flatter him from the side, “Master Wu, if Madina really picks our work, you owe us a meal!”

“Really?” Wu Xiujun questioned.

Zhou Qiang hurriedly covered his mouth, “Oh, look at me talking nonsense, how could it not be true?

Of course, she will definitely choose it.”

Only then did Wu Xiujun feel pleased, chuckling, “Your company has paid me a commission, so of course, I’ll treat you, don’t be hasty.”

Meanwhile, Wu Xiaoyu and Xie Qing watched the sycophantic display with disgust.

“Sister Qing, how did you even become the head of your design department?” Wu Xiaoyu asked.

“How would I know…” Xie Qing replied, then looked toward the conference room door, wondering how Tang Zhong was doing.

Suddenly, a snap.

The door opened, and Tang Zhong walked in, all smiles.

Both Xie Qing and Wu Xiaoyu were worried for Tang Zhong and seeing him return safe and sound, looking like nothing was wrong, they too felt relieved.

“Tang Zhong, are you okay?” Wu Xiaoyu asked as she approached him first.

“I’m fine,” Tang Zhong responded with a wave of his hand.

“Oh, good, Sister Qing and I thought you might consider suicide… Now that we see you’re alive, we’re relieved,” Wu Xiaoyu said naturally.

Upon hearing this, Tang Zhong was befuddled, wondering what was going on in this woman’s head.

Was the situation really worth committing suicide over?

“Rest assured, I’m still waiting for others to call me ‘daddy.’ How could I possibly commit suicide!” Tang Zhong declared.

“Yo!

Just got back and you’re already spouting nonsense here,” Zhou Qiang stepped forward, disdaining.

“Did I speak to you, scumbag?” Tang Zhong coldly said.

“You… shut your mouth!” Zhou Qiang, infuriated, pointed at Tang Zhong.

Tang Zhong said nothing, just picked up a chair.

Zhou Qiang instantly backed away scared, hiding among the crowd, then yelled at Tang Zhong.

“What are you doing?

Are you trying to beat someone up, you brute?”

“Did I hit anyone?

I’m just moving a chair to sit here; how does that translate into beating someone?

Besides, if I were to hit, it wouldn’t be hitting a person, it would be hitting a dog!” Tang Zhong said laughingly and settled himself on the chair.

Zhou Qiang’s face turned uglier; anyone could tell that by ‘dog’, Tang Zhong was referring to him.

“You…”

“Ease up, Director Zhou, why fuss over someone like that?

Let’s just wait for Madina’s side to decide, and then we can wait for him to serve tea as an apology!” Wu Xiujun’s female secretary stepped forward, clearly on Wu Xiujun’s behalf.

Zhou Qiang glared bitterly at Tang Zhong; the threat was clear – he would pay for this soon.

Tang Zhong didn’t care in the slightest.

Seeing this made Xie Qing and Wu Xiaoyu fretful.

How could this guy be so brazen?

He was nearly losing the bet, yet instead of running away, he just casually sat down!

The two thought about hinting to Tang Zhong again.

Just then, Li Chuwen’s phone rang.

Almost everyone’s gaze fell on Li Chuwen’s phone.

If nothing unexpected happened, it was likely a call from Madina’s agent.

Wu Xiujun and Zhou Qiang were instantly elated; ha, ha, the results were in.

Just as Xie Qing and Wu Xiaoyu were about to hint to Tang Zhong, the sound of the phone made them realize, it was over, Tang Zhong was done for.

Sure enough, Li Chuwen picked up the phone, glanced at it, then told everyone, “It’s a call from Madina’s agent!”

After saying that, she pressed the answer button.

“Congratulations, Director Li, Madina is very satisfied with your company’s work and has decided to represent your company at the Chengcheng Fashion Exhibition!” came the voice from the other end of the phone.

Li Chuwen’s frown instantly relaxed, success at last.

The weight she had been carrying fell away in an instant; this truly was great news.

Everyone was watching Li Chuwen, unable to hear what the person on the phone was saying but seeing the change in Li Chuwen’s expression, they knew it was a success.

“Ha, ha, knowing Director Li as I do, this definitely means success!” Zhou Qiang exclaimed, excited.

Although Wu Xiujun did not burst into laughter, the joy on his face was evident.

Other designers came forward to congratulate him: “Master Wu, you are truly remarkable!”

“If it were us, who knows how long it would have taken!”

“Indeed, Master Wu, you’ve really helped us out a lot!”

“It’s nothing; you guys can do it too!” Wu Xiujun said with a laugh, pleased by the surrounding comments.

Hearing their flattery, Xie Qing and Wu Xiaoyu rolled their eyes.

Such a power-thirsty group, they thought and then turned to worry about Tang Zhong.

“Tang Zhong… maybe you should sneak away now, before they catch sight of you!”

Tang Zhong sat upright in the chair, “Why would I need to flee?”

The two of them were speechless.

At such a time, he was still asking why?

What do you think, not fleeing and staying here to wait for death!

“The result isn’t out yet; who wins and who loses is still uncertain!” Tang Zhong continued.

The pair immediately rolled their eyes, thinking to themselves, you’re still thinking about winning when you haven’t even passed Madina’s agent?

How could you possibly face Madina’s test?

The two of them became speechless on the spot.

Just as they were about to speak, Wu Xiujun led Zhou Qiang over.

Zhou Qiang, always the lackey, stepped forward and said, “Laborer, isn’t it time to settle our bet?”

Behind him, Wu Xiujun’s mouth twitched slightly, revealing a smug expression.

Other designers were now also coming after Tang Zhong; they all knew that this person had just insulted Master Wu, which was practically a death wish.

“Right, laborer, the outcome has been decided.

When will you kneel before us to serve tea and apologize?”

“Hurry up, I’m waiting.

I’m ordering tea leaves online right now…”

A group of people chattered back and forth.

Xie Qing and Wu Xiaoyu could hardly stand it.

“How can you be like this?

Even if he lost, it wasn’t specified when he should serve tea and apologize.

This is a company; it’s not good to treat a colleague this way!”

Indeed, even if he lost, they should set a time to clarify things later.

How could they just talk like this now?

These people were really not giving Tang Zhong any respect!

“What do you mean by that?

Since there was a bet and we won, we can settle this matter whenever we want.

It’s none of your business.

I don’t care; I want his apology now!” Zhou Qiang retorted relentlessly.

Xie Qing and Wu Xiaoyu could only clench their fists in frustration.

They were really at a loss now; what could they do since they had lost?

Without saying another word, they turned to look at Tang Zhong, thinking that this time, it was up to Tang Zhong to resolve the issue.

They were truly out of options and could only rely on Tang Zhong to see what he would do.

At that moment, Tang Zhong smiled nonchalantly.

As expected, that clingy little demon must have seen the message by now.

If that was the case, then…

bring it on!

Then, Tang Zhong stood up from the chair, “Isn’t the result still not out yet?

Why are there always dogs barking so fiercely?

Are they hungry?

Well then, I’ll treat them to a chair!”

Tang Zhong reached out for a chair.

Seeing this, Zhou Qiang retreated in fear, shouting as he did, “I’m telling you, don’t get smart with me.

Quickly tell us, what about the bet?

Weren’t you very brisk when we made the bet?

Why are you mute now?

Hehe, thinking of backing out now, are you?

No way.”

“Which of your eyes saw me backing out?

Rest assured, the bet will certainly be carried out as usual, but we also have to wait for the results, don’t we?” Tang Zhong said.

“The result, hehe, the result is that we’ve won.

Why wait?” Zhou Qiang said.

Even Wu Xiujun on the side disdainfully added, “Still struggling uselessly?

What’s the use?

But I really want to see, after you struggle for a long time, you’ll still have to call me ‘Dad’.

That should be very amusing.

I advise you not to resist.

So many people are watching; it’s meaningless.

Better to just comply.”

When Tang Zhong heard this, he didn’t reply, just kept smiling lightly.

Xie Qing and Wu Xiaoyu had forgotten about this ‘call dad’ situation until now.

Now that they remembered, their faces looked even worse.

Calling someone dad, if that happened, they really wouldn’t be able to lift their heads in the company anymore.

They looked at Tang Zhong worriedly, but in an instant, they weren’t worried because this guy was still smiling…

Just then, Li Chuwen had finished her call.

After hearing Linda’s description, she was utterly shocked.

She had never expected it to be this guy!

It took a while before she calmed the shock in her heart, thinking she needed to spread this news to the rest of the company.

Seeing the argument ahead, especially hearing Zhou Qiang and Wu Xiujun’s words, Li Chuwen didn’t even know what to say anymore.

“Quiet down, everyone.

The results are out!”

In an instant, everyone quieted down, their eyes fixed on Li Chuwen.

Zhou Qiang and Wu Xiujun smiled smugly.

Xie Qing and her group were incredibly nervous.

“That…

Please be mentally prepared, everyone!” Li Chuwen said.

The whole crowd was puzzled.

What’s going on?

What preparation?

It must be Master Wu’s work; everyone had already been prepared for that.

“Director Li, stop beating around the bush.

You’re making it sound so tense, just announce that Master Wu has won!” Zhou Qiang said with a smile.

The others also chuckled, discussing, “Of course it’s Master Wu, who else could it be?”

Li Chuwen didn’t respond to him, nor did she pay attention to the others, continuing, “Madina’s agent has already brought back the news.

Our work has successfully passed!”

Yay!

The designers in the design department immediately became excited.

“Haha!”

Xie Qing and Wu Xiaoyu helplessly shook their heads, then looked at Tang Zhong, thinking if Tang Zhong really apologized, how could he continue in the company from now on.

“And the work selected by Madina, its designer is…” Li Chuwen paused for a moment, her gaze sweeping over the crowd.

Upon hearing this, Wu Xiujun lifted his head, awaiting the honor.

Zhou Qiang had already prepared a bellyful of flattering words, just waiting for Li Chuwen to finish so he could immediately deliver them to Wu Xiujun.

The other designers were also ready to congratulate Wu Xiujun.

It can be said that everyone was prepared.

Everyone was convinced it was Wu Xiujun’s work.

But the next name left them all shocked.

“His name is Tang Zhong!” Li Chuwen shouted loudly.

In an instant, the entire place fell silent!
