My minimum living allowance is credited to my account every day with 1000 million yuan

Chen Xiao smiled, "Several dozen, tens of thousands—"

"Dozens of them, tens of thousands?" Qin Yun repeated, "That's over a million?"
"Are you kidding me?" Qin Yun couldn't believe it at all.

"But this tea tastes really good, with a wild, fresh honey aroma, and the final aftertaste is as sweet and fresh as mineral salt—"

Believe it or not, Chen Xiao was too lazy to argue with her. Most of the tea he drank was of this level, nothing special.

"Chen Xiao, no matter what, I have to give you a chance to treat you to a meal today to express my gratitude—"

After thinking about it, I decided it didn't matter and I'd give her a chance tonight.

"Okay, once you've decided where you are, send me a message and I'll come right over." It was still early for lunch, and he didn't plan to stay at Qin Yun's place all afternoon. Now that he was at Yunfeng Building, he definitely wanted to go up and see He Qing; he hadn't seen her for several days and missed her terribly.

Because she shielded Xiangjun from disaster and risked her life to save Chen Xiao when he was attacked in Shanghai, He Qing's status in Chen Xiao's heart has risen dramatically, probably even surpassing that of Xu Wu. Just think, even Wang Ping, who was originally just He Qing's follower, has now amassed a fortune of 10 billion yuan, which shows just how much Chen Xiao dotes on He Qing.

In He Qing's office, Wang Ping was already waiting. When Chen Xiao arrived, he didn't stand on ceremony and directly carried He Qing into the lounge, with Wang Ping following behind. As her assistant, she was always proactive.

Previously, Chen Xiao was hesitant to fully enjoy himself due to concerns about He Qing's incomplete recovery from her injury. Now that He Qing has undergone a follow-up examination and confirmed a full recovery, Chen Xiao is ready to indulge himself.

A few hours later, He Qing nestled in Chen Xiao's arms and whispered, "Ziqian said you asked President Ding to arrange for someone to repair my dad's house?"

He Qing was stunned when she heard the news about Zhang Ziqian. What era is this? Ding Yong actually gave up a piece of land to build a house specifically for the He family. Although the real estate market is not doing well now and land prices in Chongqing are not that expensive, this is still a bit frightening.

Building a 50-acre mansion in the city center—isn't that like living like an emperor?

“Well, last time I went to Qingyun County, I built one for Awu’s family. When I came back, I thought I’d get one for your parents too.”

Wang Ping glanced at He Qing, secretly pleased for her. This showed that He Qing held a very high position in President Chen's heart. Of all his women, Zhao Xiangjun was undoubtedly the mistress of the Chen family, and her parents had even moved in with them.

Other women, currently only President Xu and He Qing's families enjoy this treatment. To be on par with President Xu? Wang Ping was excited just thinking about it. General Manager Xu Wu, what a remarkable figure she was, one of the most powerful women in the world!

However, she knew that Feng Feifei and Bai Lu held a very high position in President Chen's heart. But they were already from wealthy families, so President Chen didn't need to worry about these things. He Qing's family was different; they still lived in their old house. He Qing had previously planned to buy her parents a large house and had even asked He Jie to look at houses recently, but now she didn't need to.

Ding Yong, chairman of Gemdale Group, personally handled this matter, working tirelessly to expedite the construction of the He Mansion. Once completed, the He family will likely be a household name in Chongqing.

That evening, He Qing and Wang Ping returned to Jindi Xiushan Yin first, while Chen Xiao went to Bailu Villa for a banquet.

Chen Xiao hadn't been here in a long time. Qin Yun rarely ate out either, and didn't know many distinctive restaurants. Bailu Villa was the most famous in Jiangzhou, so they booked it.

He knocked on the door and entered the private room. Qin Yun was still ordering food. When she saw him come in, she smiled and looked up, "Come on, Chen Xiao, see what you'd like to eat. Don't skimp on the dishes today—"

He waved his hand, "You can do it yourself, just relax." He walked over and sat down, crossing his legs as he looked around the private room's decor, which brought back many memories. The first time he ate here was with Xu Wu. He had been caught and ripped off for trying to harass her, and he still often joked about it with Xu Wu.

She picked up her phone and sent Xu Wu a message: "Why are you away on a business trip for so long again? Come back and keep me company soon—"

After a while, I received a reply: "Yes, my lord! I will return tomorrow."

Chen Xiao smiled, then put his phone on the table. When he looked up, he found Qin Yun looking at him with a strange expression.

"What's wrong? There are flowers on my face?"

She quickly shook her head, "No, I think your smile is a bit strange."

"Strange? What's strange about it?"

"Your smile doesn't look like that of a good person—"

Chen Xiao's forehead immediately covered in black lines. "You're treating us to dinner, how can you be so rude to your guests? Do you even care about sincerity?"

Qin Yun stuck out her tongue. "Just kidding, you don't seem like such a petty person—"

Chen Xiao glared at her. "Your eyesight is terrible. You can't judge people accurately. You should get a pair of glasses in the future."

Qin Yun rolled her eyes at him. "Hmph, you have no manners. Why are you drinking tonight?"

"I'll go get it from the car—" Chen Xiao forgot to bring his wine when he got out of the car, so he just went out and asked the security guards to get him a bottle of Romanée-Conti.

"Oh, no way! I'm treating, so of course I'll buy the drinks."

Chen Xiao waved his hand, stood up and said, "Why are you being so dramatic? It's just a bottle of wine, is it really that big of a deal?"

"Pretentious?" Qin Yun retorted angrily, "I am being pretentious. How much did you pay for that wine? I'll pay for it. I said it's my treat, so of course I'll pay. I won't let you pay for even a sip of water."

If Chen Xiao is so particular about tea, it's normal for him to be picky about alcohol.
Too lazy to pay her any attention, Chen Xiao walked out of the private room, and immediately plainclothes bodyguards came forward. "Bring me two bottles of red wine—"

He didn't immediately go into the private room, but instead sat for a while in the lobby lounge, legs crossed. The bodyguard hadn't returned yet, but he did see a familiar face—Lin Tao, whom he'd interviewed with Qin Yun that afternoon. Lin Tao was now walking in with a group of people, chatting and laughing. Lin Tao also saw Chen Xiao, said a few words to his companion, and then walked towards Chen Xiao: "What a coincidence! You're here to dine with President Qin?"

Seeing his somewhat malicious smile, Chen Xiao ignored him and said indifferently, "I don't know you well—" meaning, "Do I even know you? Why are you trying to get close to me?"

Lin Tao laughed: "I love your rebellious spirit. By the way, what a coincidence, we're having a get-together with friends tonight, and your boss is coming too. Don't forget to come and offer him a toast—our private room is 888."

"The leader?" Chen Xiao guessed that this guy was probably referring to Li Hui, the marketing director of Dr. Feng's Robotics Technology Group. If he went to offer a toast, would Li Hui dare accept?
Lin Tao finished speaking and left, glancing back at Chen Xiao as he went. Unfortunately, Chen Xiao didn't even look up at him, which only made him more annoyed. What was this guy so arrogant about? He'd already finished his meeting with President Qin that afternoon, and this guy had ruined his work. The thing is, this guy was just a salesman, even in a super-large company like Dr. Feng Robotics Technology Group. He was still just a salesman; why did he have the right to look down on someone like him who had once been a manager?

As I was walking, I suddenly bumped into someone at the corner. The person exclaimed, "Can't you watch where you're going?"

Lin Tao recognized the voice and looked over, then was startled. He stepped forward with a fawning tone and said, "President Li, I'm so sorry, I was blind and almost offended you—"

This woman is someone he can't afford to offend. Although he hasn't heard where she went after leaving Jiefei Technology, just based on her relationship with CEO Xu of Junxiao Group, let alone himself, how many people in Jiangzhou would dare to mess with her?

Li Xiao glanced at Lin Tao with disdain, "I heard you left the company. After all these years, you haven't improved at all. No wonder President Li let you leave."

The "Li" she was referring to was Li Fei, the boss of Jiefei Technology. Chen Xiao racked his brains for a while, but still got the surname wrong.

Faced with Li Xiao's mockery, Lin Tao didn't dare to talk back. Like a primary school student who had made a mistake, he had to smile while being scolded.

"Mr. Li is treating me to dinner tonight. Come over and offer him a toast; don't say I didn't give you a chance—Jiefei Technology is about to receive another round of funding and will continue to expand, so they need more staff. If you want to go back, it's not like you can't have a chance—"

"Ah—the boss is here too. Thank you, Mr. Li, for giving me this opportunity. Thank you so much for giving me this chance."

With a wave of his hand, as if shooing away a fly, Li Xiao said to the woman beside him, "This person used to be the marketing director of Jiefei Technology. His business skills were average, so he was fired by Lao Li. But it seems that the people Lao Li is hiring now aren't very good either. In this industry, there are only a few truly outstanding people, and the rest are just mediocre."

"Hehe, it's his good fortune to have had the opportunity to work with you," said the woman Li Xiao brought with her, who was her assistant.

Ever since she angered Chen Xiao, she was effectively cut off from Junxiao Group for life. Fortunately, Gao Yue, remembering their past friendship, gave her a job. She's now handling some of the bed sheet cleaning for Junxiao Hotel Group. As Junxiao Hotel Management Group's business continues to grow, Li Xiao has also earned a considerable amount of money. Furthermore, many people in Jiangzhou know that she and the CEO of Junxiao Group are classmates and close friends, and many give her face, so she's doing quite well in Jiangzhou's business circles.

Everyone envied her, but no one knew the regret in her heart. She originally had the opportunity to achieve great success in Junxiao Group, but ruined her future because she complained about He Qing. Later, she realized how much He Qing was favored by Chen Xiao, and she understood Chen Xiao's words—even if He Qing set the Junxiao Charity Foundation on fire, so what? It's not her place, Li Xiao, to complain.

That might sound infuriating, but what's it to her if someone else's woman treats herself well? Li Xiao sighed. She'd never reach Gao Yue's level in this lifetime; she resigned herself to her fate.

Today, Li Fei invited her to dinner again, this time to discuss financing with Junxiao Capital. He wanted her to try and connect with Xu Wu again. But with a deal worth hundreds of millions, there was no point in troubling Xu Wu right now. Li Xiao directly forwarded the information to the vice president of Junxiao Capital, asking them to conduct an internal review first. The feedback so far has been positive, and there shouldn't be any major issues.

Back in the private room, Li Fei stood up and said politely, "President Li, please have a seat. I ordered your favorite dishes today," almost fawning over her. What could he do? She had so much influence. If it weren't for her intervention, he wouldn't have been able to see President Xu, let alone the vice president of Junxiao Capital.

Chen Xiao took two bottles of wine into the private room and asked the waiter to open them and put them in a decanter.

Qin Yun still remembered that she was supposed to pay for the wine, and thought that since she had Chen Xiao's account, she could just transfer the money to him later.

"Chen Xiao, what kind of wine is this?"

"Romanée-Conti—"

Qin Yun looked down and checked the price, then her jaw dropped. Two bottles of wine for over 60? What kind of family does that?
"Wait—", she looked up and found that the waiter had already opened both bottles of wine.

"What if we can't finish it? Isn't that a waste?" Qin Yun was extremely anxious. Chen Xiao really didn't know how to manage money. Wasting just one bottle meant spending hundreds of thousands of yuan. She usually saved every penny, how could this guy be so wasteful?

"Why don't you just try your best to finish it?"

Qin Yun stared at him for a long time. "You wouldn't be plotting something against me, would you? You're mistaken. When I drink, I can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk—"

"Really? If that's true, I suspect you're plotting something against me—"

He has a low alcohol tolerance; one bottle of red wine is all he can drink. I don't want him to use the alcohol to boost his stamina and give Qin Yun an advantage.

Qin Yun had no idea what he was thinking, otherwise she would have wanted to strangle him. Who really benefits whom?
"By the way, Chen Xiao. Tomorrow night is Zhifei Aerospace's annual meeting. Are you going? For an occasion like this, President Cha must have invited President Feng, right? Are you attending?"

Cha Lan had already told Chen Xiao, but hadn't replied, mainly because he wasn't sure if he'd be available. Now that Qin Yun brought it up, Chen Xiao remembered and sent Cha Lan a message saying he'd come over tomorrow. Xiang Jun wasn't home these past few days, so he wasn't in a hurry to go back so early. Besides, like Qin Yun said, Feng Feifei would be attending tomorrow, and he could go with her. Of course, he wouldn't sit in the front; he'd sit in the back and see Li Xingxing too. He wondered how that guy was doing lately, whether he'd been through a lot.

Hearing that Chen Xiaoming would be there that evening, Qin Yun was clearly delighted. "Hey—you'll probably be sitting in the back anyway, so why don't you come and sit at the same table as me?"

In Qin Yun's mind, he was just a salesman, so he obviously couldn't sit in the front. And she, being the owner of a small company, would definitely be arranged in the back row, so she could sit with Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao didn't refuse; having someone to talk to, especially a beautiful woman, was certainly not a bad thing. He didn't ask Xu Wu if she was going tomorrow; Cha Lan had definitely invited her, but Xu Wu might not attend such an occasion.

It's also possible that Junxing Motors will go there, but he doesn't know whether it's Xu Gang or Xiao Yuting going, and he didn't ask.

The door to VIP room 888 was pushed open from the outside, and everyone inside stood up in unison: "Good morning, Mr. Li!" (End of Chapter)
