Chapter 416: Are They All Deceiving Me?
Chapter 416: Chapter 416: Are They All Deceiving Me?
Zhou Shuyan finished speaking and immediately called Yu Zeqin. "Get in touch with the person in charge at Yuehaolai, from its Hua Country headquarters down to this branch in Imperial Capital. Contact them all and keep a close eye on them for me. Ask them if they have any employees who have been using their positions to harass others at dinner tables and how they intend to solve this issue. Do they need me to help them get some publicity?"
Upon hearing Zhou Shuyan’s words, Hu Xingwei immediately took offense. "Who the hell are you, calling the headquarters and our supermarket?"
At that moment, Yuehaolai was considered one of the top-tier large supermarkets in Imperial Capital with a significant scale.
"You say let’s settle this privately and you start acting all high and mighty with me?" Hu Xingwei mocked loudly. "If you want to show off in front of a woman, go do it at home! I already said, let’s settle this privately and be done with it! Don’t be too greedy."
Did he really think he was someone so important, threatening him over this matter?
Do you think I’m scared of your threats?
Hu Xingwei thought arrogantly.
Meanwhile, Yin Yiming, who was standing nearby, suddenly woke up from his shock when he heard Zhou Shuyan’s words about "deceiving people."
"President Zhou!" Yin Yiming shouted out loud.
He was still in shock, as if he had come to his senses but not fully, so he didn’t realize how loud his voice had been.
It startled Zhou Shuyan too.
Not just Zhou Shuyan, even Hu Xingwei, who had been blabbering and trying to settle things privately, was interrupted by Yin Yiming’s shout and looked over in surprise.
Was Yin Yiming on the wrong medication?
What was he shouting about?
President Zhou?
Which President Zhou?
Lu Youxi: "..."
Crap, the cover’s been blown.
Initially, she had gone to great lengths to make her classmates believe that although her husband was named Zhou Shuyan, he was not the CEO of Chengzhou Group.
That was all in vain now.
"What’s the matter?" Zhou Shuyan asked curiously, although he remained calm despite the surprise. His attention was on Lu Youxi, completely forgetting that their relationship was still a secret at Jing University. Apart from the three roommates who were close to Lu Youxi, Pei Jingyuan, and Ji Deyi, no one else knew about it.
Even the university’s leadership at Jing University didn’t know about his relationship with Lu Youxi.
Considering Yin Yiming was someone Lu Youxi had brought in, Zhou Shuyan was patient with him.
At least he didn’t frown or show displeasure because of Yin Yiming’s sudden outburst.
However, Zhou Shuyan was not in a good mood tonight. Despite being very patient, his expressionless face still managed to intimidate Yin Yiming greatly.
Yin Yiming paused sharply, his legs going weak with fear, and turned to Lu Youxi, "Boss, that’s not what you said at school."
Lu Youxi: "..."
"What did I say at school?" Lu Youxi blinked, feigning innocence.
Yin Yiming had a lot to say, looking as aggrieved as if Lu Youxi had wronged him. "You said that if we dared to speculate that your husband was the CEO of Chengzhou, you wouldn’t even dare to mention it yourself."
Lu Youxi: "..."
"Your memory seems to be pretty good, remembering all that?" Lu Youxi said, speechless.
She did say that. She couldn’t deny it.
Yin Yiming puffed up a little, proud as he stood tall. "That’s right. My memory is particularly good."
Lu Youxi: "..."
"You also said, you feel embarrassed to even bring it up because the classmates’ guesses were too unreliable," Yin Yiming babbled on.
Zhou Shuyan arched an eyebrow and turned to ask Lu Youxi, "Embarrassed? What’s there to be embarrassed about? Did I make you feel embarrassed?"
Lu Youxi: "..."
Lu Youxi quickly tried to convey with her eyes to Yin Yiming that recalling was enough; there was no need to blurt out everything she had said.
But obviously, Yin Yiming, lost in his self-praise and being a layman in the workplace, didn’t catch Lu Youxi’s silent cues and continued, "You also said you didn’t dare mention President Zhou’s name, fearing that others would misunderstand that you want to climb up the social ladder by associating with President Zhou."
Now it turns out, there’s no need to associate – they are already connected.
Lu Youxi: "Cough! Yin Yiming, do you still want to work at Hexing Rice? Do you still wish to be one of the veteran executives in the future?"
Yin Yiming: "..."
Lu Youxi’s straightforward threat was apparent even to Yin Yiming, the layman.
He immediately clammed up.
On the other hand, Zhou Shuyan wasn’t satisfied yet and said, "No problem, keep talking. If you can’t work at Hexing Rice, come work for Chengzhou."
Yin Yiming: "..."
You and your wife really do what you want.
Lu Youxi then said, "You want to go to Chengzhou? Weren’t you the one who told me you wanted to start a business with me and learn from Pei Jingyuan and Ji Deyi to become a founding executive of the company? What? Was it all just to fool me?"
Yin Yiming: "..."
And Zhou Shuyan was right there staring at him too.
Yin Yiming had to quickly assert, "Boss, even if I did say that, I still want to stay at Hexing Rice and work under you."
Then, Yin Yiming turned to Zhou Shuyan again and said, "The boss also said that it was a good thing she made money from stocks, otherwise she wouldn’t have been able to afford the tuition and might have had to get a job washing dishes or waiting tables for a living."
"If her husband really were you, would she still have struggled to pay her tuition?" Yin Yiming spilled everything out like pouring beans from a bamboo tube, repeating what Lu Youxi had said. "We all bought it when we thought about it."
Yin Yiming sighed deeply and lamented to Lu Youxi, "Before, so many classmates called you a great deceiver, and I didn’t believe it. Doing business with you seemed so reliable, and you never deceived Pei Jingyuan and Ji Deyi. I didn’t expect you really could deceive!"
After finishing, Yin Yiming even stamped his foot in frustration.
Lu Youxi: "..."
"CEO... CEO of Chengzhou?" In a forgotten corner, surrounded by security guards, Hu Xingwei froze, then frantically sought to clear a path. "Make way."
Finally, he made a small gap, just enough for him to look at Zhou Shuyan again.
"This Mr. Zhou is the CEO of Chengzhou Group?" Hu Xingwei asked, stuttering.
Chengzhou Group has many subsidiaries.
But Hu Xingwei wasn’t thinking about the subsidiaries.
Because the man’s surname was Zhou!
Zhao Jingyu nodded with a slight smile, resolving his confusion. "Exactly, the CEO of Chengzhou Group, Zhou Shuyan, Mr. Zhou."
"I must say, President Hu, you’ve got guts, even daring to go after Mrs. Zhou," Zhao Jingyu said with a smile.
"Damn it!" Hu Xingwei cursed, completely shocked.
