Chapter 567: That Legendary Cousin
In the office, Wen Ting slightly spread her legs apart.
"Huh... did you use your connections?" she asked.
As Shang Qi was about to let her go, she firmly grabbed his wrist, stopping him.
Shang helplessly continued...
He replied, "Of course I didn't do it myself, I had Zhao Qing find someone."
"After all, Cheng Zhu and your husband's APP is a direct competitor of [Paipai]."
"Zhao Qing is the founder of Paipai, and our Tianyun Capital only holds a significant share, so he should be more anxious, shouldn't he?"
"Now that [Paipai] is doing so well, he definitely doesn't want newcomers to come in and disrupt things."
The gentle and intellectual face of Wen Ting started to show a faint blush.
But she spoke with a bit of breath, saying, "You are truly wicked to the bone."
Shang Qi, hearing this, chuckled naughtily as he listened to her exclamation, "You should have known how bad I am already, huh?"
After saying that, he withdrew his hand and then put it in front of Wen Ting.
"Take a look yourself," he said.
Wen Ting rolled her eyes at him.
Then, she simply took it in.
Shang Qi watched her like a beaker in a laboratory, feeling somewhat satisfied.
After all these years, he was kind of tired of Wen Ting.
But lately, with Cheng Zhu and Zhang Sixing frequently showing up in front of him, he suddenly felt less tired of Wen Ting.
It's often said the business world is like a battlefield.
In the clash of two armies, your mount is a warhorse, while mine is an ex-wife.
The sense of superiority is just different.
When the situation is great, I stand up and relish it.
When things are frustrating, I stand up and vent my anger.
Anyway, my mindset won't be beaten!
After Wen Ting "let go," she sat on Shang Qi's lap, asking, "Should I text my husband a few messages recently?"
"What kind of messages?" Shang Qi wondered.
Wen Ting smiled and twisted her hips a few times, saying, "Of course, an earnest confession of my past wrongdoings, a deep apology because my husband used to love me very much."
"You're indeed wicked!" Shang Qi laughed along.
Though it was called an apology, it was actually bringing up old scars again, making him sink into a vortex of memories.
But your attitude is so sincere, and your heartfelt apology so tearful, it's simply unstoppable.
When it comes to playing mind games, you wicked women are the true masters!

Shanghai, Huaxing Capital.
Wang Xin sat on the sofa in Bao Fan's office, visibly haggard.
Wang now had heavy dark circles, and his already sparse hair was showing its final stubbornness.
After nine startup failures, Brother Xin was very hopeful about Meituan.
In fact, Meituan was indeed doing extremely well now.
He wasn't willing to give up! He was very unwilling!
If the merger could succeed, his future personal wealth reaching tens of billions would be a sure thing.
Therefore, he often came to find Boss Bao recently.
Bao Fan looked at Wang Xin and suggested, "If it really doesn't work, take a step back and offer Zhang Tao more benefits."
"What?"
"Adopt a CO-CEO model, making him Co-CEO," Bao Fan said.
"This way, even if he wants to cash out his shares later, he'll have more confidence."
"Of course, this mode is only temporary, a year at most."
After pondering for a moment, Wang Xin felt it was acceptable and said, "Okay."
Bao Fan leaned back on the sofa and said, "I'll have Zhang Tao come for a talk these days. That Zhang has been pretending to be sick, claiming he has some infectious disease, isn't it funny?"
His face sank a bit, clearly displeased.
"I think he really has a sickness!" Wang Xin cursed.
Bao Fan raised his hand to indicate that Wang Xin shouldn't be too emotional, saying, "I'll be heading to Shen City next Monday, having already scheduled a meeting with Pony."
Upon hearing that Bao Fan was going to meet Little Ma, Wang Xin felt more reassured.
Boss Bao said, "Ultimately, the merger is the trend. Now, it's just the timing that's bad for Meituan."
After discussing a few business matters, Bao Fan looked at Wang Xin and said, "Today, I learned something interesting you might want to hear."
"What?" Wang Xin was surprised.
"It's about Cheng Zhu."
"Oh? Tell me about it." Sure enough, Wang was intrigued.
He now utterly despised Cheng Zhu.
Everything he had planned was disrupted by him.
Brother Xin kind of regretted it; had he known Cheng was this capable, he wouldn't have just drawn big dreams for him but actually given him a piece and invited him aboard!
Eleme only gave him 20 million US Dollar shares, but if this were a game, he's really putting his life into it!
Bao Fan glanced at Wang Xin and said, "Do you know that Zhao Qing from [Paipai]? He pulled some strings to get Cheng Zhu's app stuck in audit."
"You mean the one Shang Qi invested in, [Paipai]?"
"Yes."
"Stuck in audit? That's no big deal, just annoying," Wang Xin thought with a sense of satisfaction.
"It's definitely not just a one-time audit blockage; future troubles will continue. Weren't you doing the same to Zhang Xuhao back then?" Bao Fan glanced at Wang Xin.
"Well, didn't I also face many lousy things and pay my dues when I was young?" Wang Xin shrugged.
After nine startup failures, what kind of messy situations hadn't he encountered?
