Doomsday Code

After the afternoon class, Chen Cheng skipped class because he had to negotiate with Bruce, and was called to Melinda's office and scolded.

"Brown, what's wrong with you lately? Ever since the alchemist incident, I've noticed that you haven't been paying attention in class every day. Have you really been blinded by the so-called compliments from outside?

And you actually started skipping classes today. Your recent performance is really disappointing."

Chen Cheng looked at the angry expression on the face of the beautiful woman in front of him. He could see pity for her misfortune and anger at her for not fighting back.

At this moment, Chen Cheng felt a dull pain in his heart. He suddenly felt who he was and why he should make a woman who cared about him so sad.

At the same time, he began to reflect on himself, wondering if he had become too arrogant and was becoming complacent just because of some crappy variable magic.

The next moment Chen Cheng slapped himself without hesitation.

The crisp sound of "pa" echoed throughout the office.

Soon, a bloody slap mark appeared on Chen Cheng's cheek.

When Melinda saw this, she grabbed Chen Cheng's hand and said:

"What are you doing? Do you think you are admitting your mistakes by hurting yourself in this way? This will only hurt yourself and make the people who care about you feel sad."

Melinda scolded Chen Cheng while rubbing his cheek.

"I'm sorry. This slap is to remind myself that I still need to work harder. Melinda, I will never do this again."

Feeling Melinda's touch, Chen Cheng felt a peace of mind he had never felt before. His panicked heart, which had been caused by the Huidun incident these days, finally calmed down.

Melinda seemed to have telepathy with him, as if she knew that Chen Cheng's impetuous heart had calmed down, and Melinda felt that unique self-confidence in him again.

"It's good that you know. Does your face still hurt? Do you want me to rub it for a while longer?"

Melinda said softly in front of him.

Chen Cheng calmed down, but he suddenly felt shy again. He took a step back and said:

"Melinda, I'm not in pain anymore. Well...if there's nothing else, I'll leave first."

Having said that, Chen Cheng fled from the office.

As Chen Cheng walked out of the office, he saw Isabel walking towards him.

At this time, Isabel's pretty face was frowned. When she saw Chen Cheng, she glared at him fiercely and said:

"You'd better behave yourself, kid. I've noticed that you've been getting close to Huidun recently. You should know the relationship between Huidun and Melinda."

When Ishabel saw Chen Cheng coming out of the office alone, she warned him directly.

However, Chen Cheng smiled and said:

"You don't need to worry about this, teacher. And as far as I know, Earl Xiaodun, your teacher, is coming here as the commander of the Royal Guards of Lord Huidun. I think you should pay more attention to your own affairs."

Chen Cheng teased Isabel and then turned and left.

, and Chen Cheng, who was leaving at this time, was also thinking about what Isabel had just said. However, based on his understanding these days, regardless of love, he really felt that the combination of Huidun and Melinda should not exist.

The reason behind this is actually involved in royal secrets.

As we all know, the phrase "your social circle is really chaotic" is not a random statement, and Chen Cheng is also confident that Huidun can change his mind and give up Melinda.

In his eyes, since Melinda didn't have that kind of feeling towards Huidun, the two of them would never be together with her.

And to be honest, if Huidun were to ascend the throne, he would not be able to marry Melinda.

Huidun's wife would only be a virtuous daughter of a noble family.

Moreover, Chen Cheng was certain that Huidun must know the trade-offs involved, otherwise he had been in the academy for so long but had never met Melinda in public.

Maybe this is good for both of them.

Huidun's engagement with Melinda was originally a conspiracy to restrict him. Although Huidun did not dislike Melinda and even liked her a little, this liking did not reach the point of a solemn vow. It was just the kind of sudden excitement that all old perverts should have.

Not to mention Melinda, she never loved Huidun from the beginning to the end.

Isabel's face was full of coldness at this moment. If Chen Cheng had not run fast, she would definitely let him taste the power of being a teacher.

However, Isabel at this moment was just as Chen Cheng said, now she was very worried about the upcoming Earl of Shotton.

Although the Earl was young, handsome, and had a distinguished family background, he was also a powerful warrior.

But for some reason, Isabel just couldn't get interested in him. More importantly, Isabel was willing to treat him as an older brother who cared about her.

So from this we can see that when pursuing certain girls, being too outstanding can sometimes become a disadvantage.

After school, Chen Cheng did not rush to Huidun Castle. He listened to what Melinda had just said to him. He knew very well that if he wanted to control his own destiny, he could not rely solely on conspiracy and tricks, but on his own strong strength.

After leaving the library, Chen Cheng took the identity certificate given to him by Huidun and walked out of the academy towards Huidun's castle.

He needed to tell Huidun about the negotiations at noon, and Huidun would have to do the signing of subsequent cooperation matters himself.

When he was taken to Huidun's study by Torre and saw Huidun reading a book, he couldn't help but recall his guess when he saw Brusto off at noon.

"My Lord Earl is truly blessed. Just by sitting at home, the kingdom's largest businessman will rush to curry favor with him."

Hui Dun ignored Chen Cheng's ridicule. He closed the book and said:

"You're finally here. It seems like you two are having a great chat. It seems like Bruce has really made his choice."

After communicating with Chen Cheng for a long time, Huidun also learned to focus on the key points when speaking, otherwise Chen Cheng's language expression might really make people angry to death.

Seeing that Huidun didn't bother with him, Chen Cheng also felt very bored, and then he sat down on the sofa opposite Huidun and said:

"Yes, and you know what, I was tricked by that old fox, and he tricked me at the end and told me that he tricked me."

Hearing Chen Cheng's resentful tone, Huidun also laughed and said:

"You have to learn your lesson, big businessmen like Bruce can be so successful, do you really think they are just a bunch of little white rabbits?

Just as you said, the king's power lies in his control over interests, and Brusto, as the kingdom's largest businessman, is at least the first person in the kingdom's open interest transportation node.

Do you think that someone who can reach this position is just an ordinary businessman?

If he was really stupid, then he, as the controller of the largest node for the transfer of civil interests in the kingdom, would have been killed somewhere long ago."

Chen Cheng did not expect that he would be taught a lesson by Huidun again, which made this competitive scientific researcher feel a little dissatisfied.

Then Chen Cheng's eyes turned, and the resentment on his face turned into a smile.

"Hehe, that old fox played a trick on me, and I can also play it back."

Then Chen Cheng looked at Huidun opposite him.

"Why are you looking at me? I can't do anything to that old fox Brusto."

Huidun spread his hands.

However, Chen Cheng shook his head and said:

“No, no, no, now that you have it, Lord Earl, you can directly name the price for the business plan that the old fox brings to you.

He loves money like his life, so let's take his wealth and directly raise the profit share by another 10%. We want 80%."

When Huidun heard this, his eyelids jumped and he said:

"That's not good, that old fox will do anything for money.

I heard from others that his little fat boy was kidnapped when he was two years old, and the kidnapper demanded a ransom of 100,000 gold coins from him. In the end, this old fox not only did not pay the kidnapper, but he directly spent 100 gold coins at the Adventurer's Guild to slaughter the kidnapper's village. "

“I always remember what he said to those adventurers.

"Your only goal is to kill all the people in that village, even if they threaten my son it will be useless."

In the end, it was because the fat boy was lucky and the kidnappers didn’t keep a good lookout for him that he was able to hide under a chair and escape.”

Huidun couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart when he said this. He was also afraid that this old fox would go all out and give him a ruthless blow.

However, Chen Cheng smiled and said:

"Don't worry, that old fox will definitely agree, because we have given too much this time, and the extra 10% is to prevent him from getting too greedy. Don't worry, he will not only agree, but also be grateful to you."

Huidun was a little skeptical, but seeing Chen Cheng's confident look, he chose to believe Chen Cheng.

And the fact was just as Chen Cheng thought. When Brusi returned home, he started to calculate the benefits of this trip.

Then he was shocked when he did the math. Even if he only took 30% of the profit this time, the business action based on high-end cloth would bring too much profit in the future. And with the proposal made by Chen Cheng later, he suddenly realized that he had made too much money.

Although he has been moving between various forces over the years, he is still alone in the end.

Moreover, even if he had joined Huidun now, he absolutely could not expose it in the short term. He had to wait until Huidun had accumulated a certain amount of strength.

And if his assets really grow exponentially during this period, then he will die before he can receive political support from Huidun.

But asking him to delay and watch time pass by like money was something he couldn't do. After thinking about it, Bruce now felt that he was in an awkward position.

Then he thought of the smile on Chen Cheng's face when he left, and he suddenly felt that he might have been tricked by that guy.
