Chen Cheng nodded, "Yeah, I had people purchase twenty million US dollars worth of medical supplies in America."
"However, their production capacity is limited, and they are still consolidating everything from various places to a single location."
This was also the reason why Chen Cheng let Qiao Jingjing 'make a little trouble.'
He already had a PR contingency plan in hand.
In the face of major issues of right and wrong, who has time to care about whether you are dating or not?
It just so happened that Chen Cheng wasn't planning on having Company Name do any publicity, so it was perfect that Qiao Jingjing stepped up to take the heat.
Qiao Jingjing was stunned, clicking her tongue, "Twenty million? In US dollars? That's like 150 million, that's way too much."
Chen Cheng smiled, "It's fine."
"It's all been bought as supplies, and we won't be announcing exactly how much money was spent."
"For your personal part, just donate normally like everyone else in the industry."
Qiao Jingjing was taken aback, "Not announcing it?"
"Doesn't that mean doing a good deed without leaving a name?"
Chen Cheng shook his head, "First, I'm doing this not because I want anyone to be grateful, but simply because I want to contribute."
"Second, high-profile publicity wouldn't actually be good for Company Name."
"People don't really have a good impression of private equity funds."
"But it has to be done; it's a matter of attitude."
Qiao Jingjing understood in a second just who this attitude was being shown to.
She smiled, "Alright then."
Qiao Jingjing checked the post one last time before hitting send.
This time, Qiao Jingjing had learned her lesson; she immediately called Sister Ling to inform her after posting.
Once her Weibo post went out, people in the industry would definitely come over to ask Qiao Jingjing how much she had donated and so on.
She needed to get on the same page with Sister Ling to keep their stories straight.
After posting on Weibo, Qiao Jingjing snuggled into Chen Cheng's arms and started scrolling through Weibo.
Qiao Jingjing was surprised to find that absolutely no one was discussing whether she was dating or not.
They were all praising her.
Kind, enthusiastic... blah blah, a whole bunch of things.
Qiao Jingjing scrolled for quite a while until her hand felt a bit tired, and only then did she leisurely exit Weibo.
She turned her head and saw that Chen Cheng was already asleep on the sofa.
Studying the face of the Great Handsome Guy, she didn't know why, but the more she looked, the more handsome he seemed.
Qiao Jingjing didn't move at all, just watched him for a long time, afraid of waking him up.
Finally, her legs and arms were really numb, so she carefully climbed up.
She went into the room to find a blanket to cover Chen Cheng with.
Chen Cheng hadn't had a proper rest since he got back. He was finally adjusting to the jet lag now.
Ode to Joy.
Ye Zhenzhen was packing her things, preparing to go home for the New Year.
Lucy walked in hurriedly, holding her phone.
"What's wrong, why the rush?" Ye Zhenzhen heard the door open and walked out of her room.
Now both of them had the passwords to each other's places, and sometimes when they were in a hurry, they would just punch in the code.
It was mainly to make it convenient for the other to rescue them and fight against the Great Demon King together.
Lucy had run over in her pajamas and come in without knocking, clearly something urgent had happened.
"Here~" Lucy's face was puffed up with anger, and she handed her phone directly to Ye Zhenzhen.
Ye Zhenzhen took it and looked, then sighed, "Those who are favored are indeed fearless."
She raised an eyebrow, "I'll deal with him when I get back."
What Lucy showed Ye Zhenzhen was Qiao Jingjing's Weibo post.
Going out to eat hot pot with Chen Cheng and making such a big fuss about it.
Both of them were smart; they could tell at a glance that Qiao Jingjing was putting pressure on Chen Cheng.
As for the mention of overseas friends contacting supplies, anyone could guess with their eyes closed that it was just something Chen Cheng used to appease her.
Speaking of dealing with him, a blush immediately appeared on Lucy's fair cheeks, "Are you sure you can handle him?"
Ye Zhenzhen: "..."
She rolled her eyes at her, "You're not on my side?"
Lucy smiled and pouted, "That's not it."
"I just feel like we can't let him go on like this."
"There are more and more of us, the newly bought house can't even fit everyone."
"Most importantly, if we let him mess around like this, I'm really afraid that one day something troublesome will happen."
"And he'll ruin his health too."
Hearing the last sentence, Ye Zhenzhen seemed to have heard the main point, and a smile curled at the corner of her lips.
She looked at Lucy ambiguously, "That last sentence is the real point, isn't it?"
"Starting to worry about your own sexual satisfaction."
"Ye Zhenzhen, you're dead meat~" Lucy's face turned beet red immediately.
Saying this, she lifted her chin, "Hmph~ I don't believe you're not worried?"
Ye Zhenzhen shook her head, "I'm okay, don't I have you guys..."
As she spoke, her hand reached towards Lucy's waist to cause trouble...
"Ahhh~ hahahahaha..."
Lucy ran while begging for mercy, "Ye Zhenzhen, stop it, hahahaha..."
"It's ticklish~"
The two of them messed around for a while before settling down, and Ye Zhenzhen went to the kitchen to get a bottle of water for Lucy.
"Thanks~" Lucy took the water and thanked her.
After taking a sip of water, she raised an eyebrow and said, "Hey, after the New Year, He Minhong won't be living here either."
"Sister Zhu is also thinking about whether to move to the Su River side as well."
"How about we both move to Binjiang Garden too?"
"It's just sitting empty there anyway, and it's closer to the company."
"I'm still paying rent here."
Ye Zhenzhen pondered for a moment, "It's doable, but just the two of us, I'm afraid it's not enough."
As soon as these words were out, Lucy blushed instantly.
Sure enough, talking to smart people is very worry-free.
As soon as she opened her mouth, the other person could hear her true thoughts.
It's just that this person is too blunt.
At this point, Lucy let go, "Then what do you suggest?"
Ye Zhenzhen raised an eyebrow, "How about we call Sister Zhu too."
Lucy nodded, "I definitely have no objections."
Suddenly, Ye Zhenzhen raised an eyebrow, "How about we call another roommate? Anyway, you have enough rooms at Binjiang Garden."
Lucy was stunned, "Call who?"
"AChu?"
"No," Ye Zhenzhen shook her head, "AChu, this silly girl is too proactive, and she really isn't the bastard's type."
"Haven't you noticed? That bastard has more girlfriends now, so he's even less interested in AChu."
"Since that's the case, it's better to break it off early. To avoid it affecting AChu all the time."
Lucy raised an eyebrow, "Then who is it?"
"I'm talking about Qin Shi."
Lucy was taken aback, the one who is even older than her...?
The three words "big-breasted girl" just couldn't come out in Lucy's dictionary.
Thinking about it, it didn't seem impossible; that bastard really liked her.
After her own chest grew, that bastard had become much more enthusiastic.
Plus, if Qin Shi is there, the stinky man will come more often.
She nodded, indicating her agreement.
Ye Zhenzhen smiled, "Alright, after we come back from the New Year, I'll find time to talk to her."
The two chatted for a while, lying on the sofa with some emotions.
Lucy looked up at the ceiling, "In the past, I never thought I would love a man so without principles."
"Phew~ It would be even better if he wasn't so unfaithful."
"Tch~" Ye Zhenzhen didn't care, "If he wasn't unfaithful, I would have taken him down long ago, would it even be your turn?"
"You're getting the benefit and still acting coy~"
"Hehe~" Lucy chuckled, "I'm just expressing my feelings."
Ye Zhenzhen shook her head in annoyance, suddenly remembering the matter of going home for the New Year, and kicked Lucy with her foot, "Hey, aren't you going home today?"
Lucy sat up with a start, quickly checked her phone, "Phew, okay, okay, still in time."
As she said this, she was about to get up and walk out.
Ye Zhenzhen thought for a moment, "I'll take you, it just so happens I'm also preparing to go back."
