Chapter 126 You Don't Understand, Even a Wife's Slaps Smell Sweet
As the elevator doors opened, Zhu family employees were waiting at the elevator entrance. Upon seeing Xie Junfei, they immediately bowed respectfully and greeted him.
Xie Junfei nodded and followed the Zhu family to the spacious and bright conference room.
Xie Junfei took the lead, sat down on the sofa in the main seat, picked up the tea brought by the employee, and took a sip:
"So, what exactly did you come here for?"
"Why can't you talk to my older brother about this? Why do you have to come to me?"
Chi Jingchuan sat on the sofa next to her and sighed softly:
"Mr. Xie, you should know what I studied, right?"
Xie Junfei nodded.
While going upstairs, Xie Junfei used her internal account at Xie's company to check Chi Jingchuan's personal information and get a basic understanding of him.
Chi Jingchuan, 28 years old, graduated with a Juris Doctor degree from Stanford University. He originally worked at the law firm of Collins in the United States. Later, on the recommendation of Zhu Wensheng, he left the law firm and chose to join Xie's Group as the vice president to serve Xie Wenzhou.
Xie Junfei raised an eyebrow:
"He's in the same line of work as my third brother."
Chi Jingchuan smiled modestly:
"I'm still not as good as Xie Lu."
"However, I have recently had some friction with Mr. Xie."
Xie Junfei's stomach had begun to ache slightly, and she frowned slightly.
"Speak directly if you have anything to say."
Chi Jingchuan, being a lawyer by profession, immediately saw that her patience was wearing thin and cut to the chase:
"There's a rumor circulating in the company that your third brother is coming to work at Xie's and is going to replace me as vice president."
“Some time ago, Xie Wenzhou’s secretary received the wrong information and tried to sideline me. As a result, Xie Wenzhou kicked him out, but it was a huge blow to me.”
Xie Junfei frowned:
"My third brother has only been promoted for a couple of days. He was doing just fine, why would he quit his job to steal yours?"
"so what?"
Chi Jingchuan simply said:
“I want to buy five percent of your shares and become a shareholder of the Xie family.”
"I've already spoken with Xie Wenzhou, he's fine with it, so he asked me to ask you."
Xie Junfei clutched her stomach, frowned slightly, and her mind raced.
As a technology company, Xie's focuses on AI and companion robots, and has a very close cooperation with research institutes in Germany, possessing cutting-edge technologies and huge market potential.
This is also why Xie Wenzhou's roadshow in Europe attracted so much attention.
Therefore, selling your shares now would be a very unwise choice.
But Xie Wenzhou has already agreed, doesn't that mean he's worth doing this for?
Xie Junfei clutched her stomach, slowly pondering.
Seeing her deliberating so carefully, Chi Jingchuan considerately stood up, intending to give her some private space, but she called out to him:
"No problem, I'll go to the Xie family tomorrow, and we'll discuss the details then."
Chi Jingchuan was somewhat surprised by her decisiveness:
"Don't you need to reconsider?"
Xie Junfei shook her head:
"No need, I have faith in Mr. Chi's abilities."
"Talented people are invaluable, and now is a critical juncture, so the Xie family must act early."
Chi Jingchuan knew that she had been in the business world for many years and was decisive in making decisions, so he stopped trying to persuade her.
After finishing their business, Chi Jingchuan noticed that Xie Junfei seemed unwell, so he opened the door and asked the Zhu family's servants to change the water, which had already gone cold.
Xie Junfei carried painkillers with her, which she took with water and they took effect quickly.
Seeing her taking her medicine without any hesitation, Chi Jingchuan couldn't bear to watch any longer:
"What if you develop drug resistance if you take your medication like this?"
Upon hearing this, Xie Junfei gathered up the remaining debris and threw it into the trash can.
"If you take two pills a month, you'll only need one box of pills a year at most."
"Two painkillers for a whole day without menstrual cramps, it's such a good deal, a deal you guys can't even imagine."
"Many people nowadays don't pay much attention to women's physical feelings. They think that menstrual cramps can be endured, but why should I endure them? Why should I suffer through pain when modern medicine can cure it?"
"There are so many drugs available now. If I develop drug resistance, I'll just switch to another one. What's there to be afraid of?"
"Besides, you're not sick every day. Do you think ibuprofen is the only life-saving drug in the world? You've developed a tolerance to ibuprofen, so you're just waiting to die when you're sick?"
These words were spoken crisply and decisively. Chi Jingchuan was taken aback for a moment, but then he looked at her smile with more appreciation.
"You're so opinionated at such a young age; you're much smarter than Chi Xu."
Xie Junfei waved his hand and followed Chi Jingchuan out of the conference room:
“That’s different. Chi Xu is also very smart. At least he’s already figured out what he wants.”
"This is so much better than what our peers in this circle have achieved."
The elevator descended, and the two returned to the disco.
It's almost 1 a.m., which is the busiest time of the night.
The waiters knew all about the habits of these wealthy people. They removed all the bottles of wine from their booths, whether opened or unopened, and replaced them with a fresh batch.
Xie Junfei couldn't drink alcohol during her period, but Chi Jingchuan didn't care, as the Chi family's driver was waiting for him outside.
With the deal settled, he relaxed considerably and went down to the dance floor with his drink.
Xie Junfei leaned back on the sofa alone, looking around to see where Zhu Lili was.
She left home in a hurry today, wearing only a simple white shirt and jeans, with her hair long and straight in black without any perming or dyeing. She didn't have a single piece of valuable jewelry on her body, except for her face, which shone brightly under the lights.
But an 18-year-old's bare face without makeup is at best pretty under harsh lighting. For those male prostitutes who make a living off women, a rich woman carrying a Hermes bag and wearing a Cartier bag is still more cost-effective.
As the people who had surrounded Chi Jingchuan in the booth gradually dispersed, the group of male models that Zhu Lili had ordered also went down to the dance floor with her. Xie Junfei propped his head up and looked over, feeling very bored.
Just as she was about to turn around and ask a waiter for some hot water, a familiar person plopped down next to her.
Xie Junfei turned around and was surprised to find that it was someone she knew.
Dr. Zhao, wearing a black shirt and with hickeys all over his neck, sat down next to her, raising an eyebrow at her:
"What are you doing here? Where's Huo Shen?"
Since they were all on the same side, Xie Junfei reciprocated:
"What are you doing here? Where's your brother?"
Upon hearing this, Dr. Zhao chuckled, completely abandoning his previous demeanor as an elite doctor, holding a glass in one hand and resting the other on the back of the chair:
"I'm legally clubbing, the kind where I bring my family."
"See that? My husband's on the dance floor."
After he finished speaking, Xie Junfei followed his gaze and saw the man talking to Zhu Lili.
The man had refined and calm features, a slender figure, and stood opposite Zhu Lili with a neat white shirt and his left hand in his pocket. His clean shirt was also adorned with a proper tie, collar pin, cufflinks, and collar clips, making him look as if he had just taken off his white coat and rushed over, which seemed out of place with the bright lights and revelry below the stage.
A beam of white light shone down, and Xie Junfei keenly noticed a very obvious handprint on Dr. Zhao's face.
Xie Junfei looked slightly disgusted; he had clearly just gotten a beating from his wife.
"What's so great about getting caught at a nightclub? Do you like your wife's slaps?"
Dr. Zhao touched his face, recalling the taste:
"You wouldn't understand."
"What was that saying?"
"I realized how good my wife is in winter. While others shiver from the cold when walking alone on the street, I am different. My wife's handprint on my face is warm."
