Chapter 165: Forfeiting All Your Pocket Money (Part 1)

Zhang Yang had mustered the courage to confess his feelings to Fu Xiaoli for the third time, but was rejected again.

The reason for the rejection was not because they were incompatible, nor because they were too young, but rather an answer that Zhang Yang found difficult to understand.

Fu Xiaoli said she didn’t like men.

Initially, Zhang Yang didn’t believe it, but then Zhang Manman secretly told him that Fu Xiaoli had known a female netizen for a long time, who had even visited the county and had dinner with Fu Xiaoli at a café. She was a short-haired girl who looked like a boy.

“Brother Zhao, Brother Zhao, I don’t want to live anymore!”

Zhang Yang was nearly crying to death.

…

Zhao Qingfeng hadn’t expected things to turn out this way, but he understood.

“Brother Zhao, kiss me!”

Suddenly, Zhang Yang lifted his donkey face, pouting his lips.

He wanted to test if there was any feeling between men.

After all, he couldn’t understand why a girl could like another girl; shouldn’t she like boys?

…

Zhao Qingfeng was nearly scared to death.

After a couple of kicks and some comforting words, seeing that Zhang Yang was still feeling terrible, he comforted him, “What’s the hurry? I’ll take you to the provincial city sometime. The girls there are pretty, not inferior to Fu Xiaoli.”

Zhang Yang didn’t quite agree with Zhao Qingfeng’s argument.

He liked Fu Xiaoli too much; it seemed like no other woman in the world could compare to her in beauty.

Especially that mature charm, which Zhang Yang couldn’t let go of.

But since Fu Xiaoli had already made it clear she liked women, whether true or not, it almost meant there was no hope.

…

The next day.

Early in the morning.

Hearing that Zhao Qingfeng was going to the provincial city to start a business, Shen Lingyao also became interested, “I want to work too, since there’s nothing to do during the summer vacation. It’s a good opportunity to train myself.”

Zhao Qingfeng smirked, “Still going to teach piano to that little brat? Earning thirty yuan and putting up with so much, it’s better to come to me.”

After saying this.

He told Shen Lingyao about the company he had just established.

“Lingfeng Technology?”

Shen Lingyao secretly rejoiced, wasn’t this a combination of their names?

But she deliberately shook her head, “Hmph, I won’t go. You’re so naughty, if I worked for you, wouldn’t you exploit me?”

Zhao Qingfeng was not a ruthless capitalist.

Seeing Shen Lingyao pouting and pretending to be angry, he said with a smile, “Lingyao, how about this, to avoid me exploiting you, you come and be the president of my company.”

President?

Being able to manage Brother Qingfeng would definitely be enjoyable!

?(?????)?, not bad at all.

If he doesn’t listen, deduct his salary!

But she didn’t know anything about management.

Brother Qingfeng said they needed to hire people, and she wasn’t keen on dealing with strangers.

But Zhao Qingfeng said seriously, “Lingyao, you don’t need to manage others, just manage me. Haven’t you always wanted to be the queen bee? To avoid being ruthlessly exploited by me, I’ll reluctantly become the vice president and help you work properly!”

Shen Lingyao jumped up happily, “ヾ(??▽?)ノGreat, great, if you don’t listen, I’ll forfeit all your pocket money!”

After saying this, she went to the countryside to see her grandmother at the urging of Ding Xiang.

Her grandmother missed her, and her health hadn’t been good these past few days, insisting on having her stay for a few days.

Coincidentally, Zhao Qingfeng was busy for the next few days.

After agreeing to meet up once he was done, he and Shen Kuo headed to the provincial city first to hold a meeting for Erlunsi.

An hour later.

Zhao Qingfeng appeared in the Erlunsi conference room.

After checking last week’s report, he assigned a new task to Liu, the deputy chief of public relations.

“Deputy chief Liu, here is a list. Your public relations department should follow it immediately, traveling to sports centers across the country to find them. I don’t care how you do it, but the goal is to sign at least a twenty-year endorsement contract with them.”

Deputy chief Liu took it and looked.
