NOVEL NEXT Chapter 529: The Opponent's Gambit
"Haha, Director Zhang, I recently got a new painting and calligraphy piece. What do you think of it?"
"Hmm, not bad, it's a treasure, haha!"
"Since it's nice, why don't you keep it, Director Zhang? I don't understand calligraphy and paintings, to me they're like wastepaper. A precious sword deserves a hero."
"Haha, if that's the case, I won't be polite about it!"
"Director Zhang, what about the matter with my company?"
"Don't worry, I'll help you smooth things over."
"Haha, thank you so much, Director Zhang!"
"..."
Lin Mu listened to the recording, smiled slightly, and didn't need to hear anything else. Just this act of bribery was enough to bring Zhang Qun down!
Qi Shangjing pondered for a moment on the phone before saying, "After work tonight, let's meet at the food stall where we last ate. I want to talk to you!"
"What's up, Uncle?" Lin Mu sensed something was off with Qi Shangjing and asked.
"It's hard to explain in a few words, let's talk when we meet tonight!"
"Okay, see you tonight!"
That evening, Lin Mu left Flying Dragon Film and Television, drove to that food street in Wancheng East District. The food street was bustling with people, and the vendors' calls were non-stop. Lin Mu walked along the street to the barbecue stall they had been to before.
"Uncle!" Lin Mu called as he approached. Qi Shangjing was already there, with some barbecue and beer on the table.
"Come, sit down, Lin Mu!" Qi Shangjing pointed to the seat opposite and said.
Lin Mu nodded and sat down. "Uncle, what's wrong? Your expression seems off."
"Nothing's wrong with me! It's you, acting all high and mighty!" Qi Shangjing snorted, "Do you think you're invincible or something?"
"Uh... hey hey, just average, third best in the world. But in Wancheng? If it's a solo fight, if I, Lin Mu, claim to be second, no one dares to claim first!" Lin Mu grinned.
"Stop with the nonsense!" Qi Shangjing said, pouring himself a drink and downing it in one go, "You can't touch Zhang Qun!"
"Hmm? Can't touch him? Uncle, are you kidding?" Lin Mu asked in confusion.
