Chapter 14

Su Xingchuan received two strange messages in a row today. The first one was from Yan Tao.

Yan Tao: [Mr. Xu from Zhongjin has appointed you to be in charge of the entire financing project. Let’s have a meeting at 2 pm to discuss the contract and the details of the subsequent work.]

What? Xu Zhengdong appointed him?

Before he could reply, Xu Zhengdong sent another message: [Go to the private restaurant on Changting Street at 5 o'clock.]

Su Xingchuan was completely stunned.

He was just about to go find Yan Tao when Zhou Jing suddenly rushed in.

Zhou Jing had just learned that Xu Zhengdong had handed over the Zhongjin project to Su Xingchuan. He was very angry and pointed at Su Xingchuan, saying that he was a sinister villain who went back on his words and said one thing in public and another in private.

Xie Liang happened to be passing by and heard it. He rushed in and stood in front of Su Xingchuan, saying sarcastically, "You say one thing in public and another in private? Mr. Zhou, are you talking about yourself? That's a pretty accurate description."

Zhou Jing slammed the table: "You!"

Xie Liang hated Zhou Jing the most. They were not in the same department, but Xie Liang was not afraid of him. He could not stop scolding him for a while: "Xingchuan took a half-month sick leave, and you whispered in the ear of Mr. Yan for half a month, just to grab this Zhongjin project, and what was the result? It was all in vain. Isn't it interesting?"

Zhou Jing was furious: "It's not your turn to interrupt!"

Fortunately, Yan Tao intervened and the two men did not fight. In the end, Zhou Jing could only return to his office in disappointment.

Su Xingchuan was alone in the office with a headache.

Once the contract was signed, Xu Zhengdong became his half-boss.

In the following period of time, he had to see Xu Zhengdong every day, groveling and fawning on his love rival...

He can't do it.

It was the first time that he felt afraid of difficulties at work. It was not that he was afraid to face Xu Zhengdong, but he didn't know what position he should take to face Xu Zhengdong. If he and Xu Zhengdong were serious rivals in love, it would be fine, but what was he now? A third party?

He wasn't even a third party, and Li Xuan never gave him a good look, but he just held on to that little bit of affection tightly.

Like a joke.

He feel depressed and unwell.

He has been very tired recently. He did not rest well after the operation, nor did he take good care of himself. Although it was a minimally invasive surgery, it still hurt his vitality. He sat alone in the office chair and relaxed for a long time.

Whenever this happened, he would miss Li Xuan especially, and especially miss the beautiful mornings when he woke up holding Li Xuan in his arms.

He struggled for the whole day, but finally picked up his coat and drove to the private restaurant on Changting Street.

Su Xingchuan didn't notice Changting Street at first. It was not until he drove past the bar where Li Xuan got drunk that night that he realized it. Could it be... Could it be that Xu Zhengdong discovered something?

He tried to stay as calm as possible.

He straightened his collar and hair in the car, then closed the door and walked towards the private restaurant that Xu Zhengdong mentioned. The main entrance of this restaurant was inconspicuous, just a small wooden antique door. Only after entering did he realize that there was a winding path leading to a different world.
