Chapter Fifteen: Taking Money to Do Business

Meng Chengze was somewhat surprised that someone would actually bring him wine.

"What kind of wine is this? Does it look appetizing?"

"Never seen it before, it probably isn't any good wine."

The relatives standing to the side looked disgusted and spoke words full of belittling.

The waiter who delivered the wine looked embarrassed. "This is a master-level red wine from Chunjiang, costing 200,000 yuan a bottle."

"Please enjoy your meal."

The waiter explained, but inwardly he was mocking him.

What a country bumpkin! So clueless about quality.

Upon hearing that the bottle of wine cost 200,000, both of Meng's parents showed expressions of surprise.

She was even more satisfied when she saw her son.

"Cheng Ze, is your neighbor next door your friend? You should go and thank them."

"These two bottles alone cost four hundred thousand."

Mencius' mother was beaming with joy; they had really shown off in front of their relatives this time.

Now who would dare to laugh at them?

Meng Chengze was curious, though, because he had been abroad for so many years and had hardly any friends left in China.

But if the amount involved is 400,000, the recipient must be someone who is extremely wealthy and influential.

It can't hurt to get to know them.

"Mom, you eat here, I'm going to check on the neighbors."

Meng Chengze walked out of the private room and knocked on the door next door, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Behind the door, a middle-aged man stood with a smile on his face. On the table were only four simple dishes and a soup.

Two guards followed behind him.

This display of power made Meng Chengze wary, after all, the other party was willing to spend 400,000 yuan at once.

"Sir, I am Meng Chengze, Jiang Xin's fiancé."

Meng Chengze got straight to the point, saying that he would use Jiang Xin's identity to knock on the door.

“Mr. Meng, I’ve heard about you. I heard you were hosting a banquet for guests next door today, so I’m sending you a small gift.”

"I wonder if Mr. Meng is satisfied?"

The man smiled, but the smile didn't reach his eyes.

"Thank you for the gift, sir. I am flattered."

"May I ask your name, sir?"

Meng Chengze was curious, as this person didn't react much after hearing Jiang Xin's name.

"I am Zhao Chengfeng, and I also run a small company in Jinghai."

"I recently heard that the Jiang Group has a good project and I hope to cooperate with Mr. Meng."

As Zhao Chengfeng spoke, he glanced at the guards behind him.

A suitcase was placed on the table.

Meng Chengze was taken aback, looked at the suitcase, and realized something.

"Is Mr. Zhao trying to bribe me?"

Meng Chengze raised his chin.

Even if someone is incredibly wealthy, they still need to beg him, right?

Zhao Chengfeng smiled and said, "Mr. Meng is mistaken. These are just a small gift to mark our meeting."

"If Mr. Meng can help me, there will be a great gift to come."

The suitcase was opened, and Meng Chengze's previously arrogant head instantly dropped.

The money was neatly arranged inside.

"That's easy to say, Mr. Zhao. Don't worry, I will definitely do it for you."

“Jiang Xin obeys my every word.”

The two exchanged a smile and reached an agreement.

After leaving Chunjiang Hotel, Meng Chengze took a taxi directly to Jiang's Group.

There was also a packed meal for Jiang Xin beside her.

Inside the office, Jiang Xin stretched.

It was another late night. Since her divorce, she had devoted herself entirely to the Jiang family, and even eating on time had become a luxury.

Looking at the corner of the table, there should have been a lunchbox there.

The food inside is always hot.

Liu Zhenzhen's words from earlier in the day resurfaced: Xu Zirui shouldn't be abusing his body now.

I gave him so much compensation, enough for him to live on for a lifetime.

"Xinxin, I brought you food."

Meng Chengze's voice pulled Jiang Xin back to reality.

As Jiang Xin watched the man push the door open and enter, she caught a whiff of fragrance.

"I knew you were still working overtime. No matter how tired you are, you can't forget about your health."

"This is something I specifically asked them to redo. Try it and see if it suits your taste."

With a smile, Meng Chengze took out the packed meals one by one.

Most of the dishes were light-tasting vegetables, but they were also the kind of flavors Jiang Xin liked.

"Cheng Ze, thank you for bringing me groceries so late."

Jiang Xin's eyes still held a trace of warmth; at this moment, she felt a long-lost warmth.

"What are you saying? I'm your fiancé now, it's my duty to take care of you. Eat quickly, don't let it get cold."

Meng Chengze handed chopsticks to Jiang Xin.

However, his eyes darted around the table, as if searching for something.

Jiang Xin did not see Meng Chengze's little trick.

Jiang Xin is now enjoying the warm meal.

Meng Chengze looked around and finally found the document.

"Xinxin, I heard that the company has a project recently and is looking for a reliable partner."

Meng Chengze looked over curiously, and Jiang Xin sighed.

"I'm telling you, I have indeed been busy with this lately."

Jiang Xin had no intention of continuing the conversation, as it was ultimately a company matter.

Meng Chengze smiled and said, "Xinxin, I actually wanted to help you share the burden."

"I happened to meet a businessman during the time I was abroad, who was also from Jinghai."

"If needed, I can help you make contact."

As Meng Chengze spoke, his eyes reddened, he said, "You've been so busy lately, I can count the time I've spent with you on one hand."

I'm afraid that one day you'll forget about me.

As Meng Chengze spoke, he began to clean up the trash on the table.

"If I want to be by your side, I must have enough strength."

"Otherwise, people outside wouldn't acknowledge me."

Meng Chengze's gaze was firm, and Jiang Xin was stunned.

I subconsciously thought of Xu Zirui.

She had never heard these words from Xu Zirui before; they were like people from two different worlds.

"I promise you, come to the company tomorrow, and I'll have a good talk with the employees."

Meng Chengze won over Jiang Xin with just this one meal.

Because of this, Meng Chengze felt even more proud.

He believes he has now won over Jiang Xin.

"Xinxin, I won't bother you anymore. You should get some rest. I need to rush back to see my parents."

Meng Chengze held Jiang Xin in his arms, his eyes flashing with madness.

The next morning, Liu Zhenzhen overheard her subordinates' gossip as soon as she arrived at the company.

"I just saw the group notification. It says that the project has found a partner."

"That's fast! They found it so quickly."

"But I heard it was a newcomer who was hired. Is he reliable?"

Liu Zhenzhen was taken aback and went straight to the office, where she saw Jiang Xin organizing documents.

"Is someone already hired for that project?"

Hearing Liu Zhenzhen's question, Jiang Xin nodded.

"It's Cheng Ze. He came to tell me last night that he found a suitable businessman. I also investigated him, and he seems pretty good."

Jiang Xin didn't hide anything, but Liu Zhenzhen became anxious.

Did Meng Chengze drug you?

"You dare to entrust such an important project to him!"
