Chen Cheng pulled back his thoughts and quickly looked through the mountain of documents piled on the desk.

Over at Zen, things were gradually getting on the right track.

Li Na served as Vice President, responsible for daily operations.

Li Fei held the title of Chief Scientist and occasionally participated in R&D meetings.

Chen Cheng himself was the Head of Technology.

The actual execution was handled by a young woman born in the 90s named Luo Li.

Chen Cheng had recruited her early before she became famous, not worried that her peak technical output period hadn't arrived yet.

Because Chen Cheng, the cheater, could guide the R&D himself.

Under Luo Li's leadership, Zen was mainly working on data labeling R&D.

Actually, Sky, which Chen Cheng had invested in before, was doing this too.

However, some things are better kept in one's own hands to be truly at ease.

As for the other subsidiary companies, there were no waves.

However, Lucy told him that Sun Yiqiu had enraged Wu Kezhi to the point of explosion, which made him laugh for a long time.

After Sun Yiqiu went to report, Lin Yuming discovered he didn't know how to do anything and asked him how he got in.

Little cutie Yi Qiu said, "My mom made me come."

Lin Yuming didn't really want to tell Wu Kezhi about Sun Yiqiu, wanting Wu Kezhi to ask Sun Yiqiu himself.

When Wu Kezhi saw Sun Yiqiu's high school diploma, he was stunned and asked repeatedly:

"Who is your mother?"

Then he pushed Sun Yiqiu aside and rushed into Gao Yue's office.

He was rebuffed by a few words from Gao Yue.

Now this matter had spread throughout Company Name, and everyone knew Sun Yiqiu had connections.

However, it wasn't anything strange.

Those who could enter Company Name were either exceptionally talented, had powerful backgrounds, or were just cannon fodder.

Regarding the interns, except for Lan Qianyi, whose resume Gao Yue had specifically sent him.

Chen Cheng didn't pay much attention to the others.

The ones who would ultimately stay were likely the same people from the show.

Sun Yiqiu, Lan Qianyi, Gao Sicong, and Hao Shuai.

When it was about time, Chen Cheng left the office.

Eleven drove Chen Cheng to the hotel where they had an appointment.

Yes, the same hotel where Chen Cheng had played a friendly match with Dai Xi last time.

In the restaurant elevator lobby, Chen Cheng saw Jiang Nansun waiting there.

He walked over, naturally placing his hand on Jiang Nansun's willow-thin waist, a smile on his lips, "Why did you come out to wait?"

"Ah," there were other people in the elevator, so Jiang Nansun immediately felt embarrassed and didn't dare to make a sound, linking arms with Chen Cheng as they walked into the restaurant.

Jiang Nansun wasn't wearing a coat at the moment, just a black turtleneck knit sweater.

It was simple yet elegant.

The collar was slightly rolled up, cleverly highlighting her slender neck lines, complementing her swan-like neck.

Walking to the private room, Jiang Nansun deliberately stopped, lifted her chin, and warned Chen Cheng with an arrogant pout:

"Don't say anything weird," she said, her face blushing, "I still have a reputation to maintain."

Chen Cheng was taken aback, wondering what she was worried he might say.

Was it that they had already slept together?

Or that they had played Fight the Landlord together?

Chen Cheng looked at her haughty attitude, which really hit his kink, chuckled, and nodded, "Okay, I'll just eat today and not say anything, alright?"

A beauty acting coy didn't infringe on his personal interests, so it was hard not to spoil her.

Besides, at dinner tonight, someone would probably be too embarrassed to open her mouth.

Jiang Nansun took a look and raised her hand to straighten the uneven parts of Chen Cheng's clothes.

Chen Cheng wasn't dressed formally today, wearing an off-white casual suit, paired with casual white sneakers, and a black knit sweater underneath.

"Alright, let's go."

After speaking, Jiang Nansun led Chen Cheng to push open the door of the private room and walk in.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, the two sisters, Dai Yin and Dai Xi, didn't stand up, but just looked up.

When Dai Yin saw who it was, a flash of light crossed her eyes, "It's him!"

Chen Cheng had been going to Fuxing Road often recently, and Dai Yin had seen him from afar.

As for Dai Xi, her eyes went wide, and she was completely stunned.

How could he be here?

What was his relationship with Nansun?

This bastard wouldn't really have something going on with Nansun, would he?

Countless question marks flashed in Dai Xi's head, her gaze shifting repeatedly between Chen Cheng and Jiang Nansun.

Jiang Nansun introduced them, "Mom, Aunt, this is Chen Cheng, Teacher Chen, from our school's School of Economics and Management."

"Teacher Chen, this is my mother, Dai Yin;"

"This is my aunt, Dai Xi."

Jiang Nansun introduced them politely, and Chen Cheng also wore a faint smile, as if he didn't know Dai Xi at all before today.

He reached out his hand and greeted them with a smile, "Hello, Auntie, I'm Chen Cheng."

Dai Yin was a bit dazed, looking at the hand extended towards her, and hurriedly shook it, "Oh, oh, hello~ hello."

Chen Cheng nodded slightly with a smile, and then extended his hand towards the completely bewildered Dai Xi, "Hello, Aunt."

Dai Xi was completely confused, her body stiff as she held the hand Chen Cheng extended, "You... hello!"

Chen Cheng smiled and imperceptibly scratched her palm.

Dai Xi instantly snapped back to reality; it really was this bastard.

She had just been wondering if it was just someone who looked like him, but this action from Chen Cheng immediately woke her up.

Seeing Dai Xi looking dazed, Dai Yin hurriedly smoothed things over, inviting Chen Cheng to sit, "Teacher Chen, please, sit down."

Jiang Nansun also smiled and pulled out a chair for Chen Cheng; Chen Cheng smiled, let go of Dai Xi's hand, and sat down.

Jiang Nansun naturally sat down next to Chen Cheng, facing Dai Yin.

Her subconscious action made the corner of Dai Xi's mouth twitch.

This was a Western-style private dining room with a long table for sitting opposite each other.

Chen Cheng sat opposite Dai Xi, a faint smile on his lips.

Dai Yin spoke up to break the silence, calling the waiter to order, "Teacher Chen, see if there's anything you'd like to eat."

"Asking Nansun to invite you here specially today is mainly because I heard from Nansun that you've helped a lot with family matters these past two days, so we wanted to treat you to a meal to express our gratitude."

Chen Cheng was taken aback; Dai Yin was keeping a surprisingly low profile.

She should have realized the relationship between Chen Cheng and Jiang Nansun.

And yet she was still keeping such a low profile?

Chen Cheng narrowed his eyes; was it because of his status and position?

Although Company Name was low-key, there was news about their 20 billion fundraising before.

Ordinary people didn't care, but those who did could see everything with a quick search.

Also, after Chen Cheng was on the cover of Time, his resume was still posted on the Likely Chen Chengs company official website.

Since Jiang Nansun hadn't revealed the relationship between the two, she, as the mother, had to maintain it carefully.

Fearing that one wrong move would cause her daughter's golden son-in-law to fly away.

If Chen Cheng wasn't the founder of Company Name, but just an ordinary person.

Then Dai Yin would probably be anxious to inquire about Chen Cheng's financial background, and then rush to force the issue, asking when they would get married or something like that.

Thinking this through, Chen Cheng smiled, "Auntie, you are too polite. You can call me by my name or just Xiao Cheng, either is fine."

"Using 'you' all the time is really too much for me."

A smile appeared on Dai Yin's face, she glanced at her daughter, and followed suit, "Oh, then Auntie will listen to Xiao Cheng?"

Chen Cheng nodded with a chuckle.

Under the table, Jiang Nansun's palm holding Chen Cheng's was sweating; she was extremely guilty, making their palms feel damp.

Chen Cheng already felt her nervousness, extended his right hand to pat the back of her hand, and smiled at her.

Jiang Nansun felt slightly more at ease.
