Let you be a great man, not a scumbag

Chapter 1836 Don’t be afraid, I’m here

However, it was still not completely effective.

He's holding back his anger right now...

The moment the barrier rose, Jiang Cheng's hand moved with remarkable agility, scooping up and releasing the object with a single, swift motion.

Wang Yuyan simply lay down.

"You're right. After all, I've been guiding you, teaching you, and helping you with your studies for a while now, and I've poured so much water on you. Shouldn't you repay me?"

"Stop messing around... It's only a 20-minute walk, we'll be too late."

Her face flushed as she thought about Jiang Cheng's experience of returning to the courtyard house from the airport last time.

The car drove into a courtyard house, which was full of Jiang Cheng's people.

She could accept the car starting to move again after it had stopped.

If this happens again at the restaurant entrance, it will be incredibly embarrassing.

The thought of having to discuss serious business with Jiang Cheng about the hotel project made her very nervous.

At this moment, she just wanted to maintain her best condition and didn't want any accidents to happen.

With just a word, Jiang Cheng handed over the management rights of the landmark hotel to her.

She was genuinely afraid of not doing well.

She was also afraid of betraying Jiang Cheng's heavy trust.

Seeing Wang Yuyan struggling to sit up, Jiang Cheng leaned forward and placed his hands on either side of her.

"What do you mean, 'not enough'? Don't worry, I have a quick and easy way to solve this..."

Five minutes later, Wang Yuyan's cheeks instantly turned as red as shrimp.

She thought Jiang Cheng's quick and decisive approach meant that he would not let her handle the situation unilaterally.

Surprisingly, it wasn't.

Jiang Cheng used coercion.

He didn't make any movement, only staring at her intently with his eyes.

In less than ten seconds, he was brought to tears by Jiang Cheng's compelling gaze.

It's not that she's emotionally fragile, nor that she's never experienced a gaze from Jiang Cheng like that before.

The scene was different; outside, the traffic was heavy.

She could even see the figures of passersby through the window.

Even though they can't see themselves, this feeling is deadly.

She would rather Jiang Cheng torture her physically than have him stare at her and study her quietly like this.

This is so shameful...

Twenty minutes later, the car finally stopped in front of the clubhouse hidden in the mountains on the outskirts of Beijing.

The club we've arranged to meet today has white walls and gray tiles, and is so low-key it's almost secretive.

As the car entered the courtyard, Wang Yuyan looked out the window and saw the waiter standing outside the private room, and her nervousness resurfaced.

He hurriedly straightened his clothes again, pretending to be flustered.

Seeing her movements, Jiang Cheng deliberately teased, "Didn't I just help you relax? Why are you so nervous?"

Wang Yuyan gave Jiang Cheng a reproachful look.

She knew Jiang Cheng said that to put her at ease...

"This is the first time I've come out to discuss cooperation with you, and I'm still quite nervous..."

Jiang Cheng understood Wang Yuyan's feelings at that moment.

He went from being a butler at a private villa to managing a hotel.

If she's not worried, who is?

"Don't be afraid, I'm here..."

Seeing Jiang Cheng's words, Wang Yuyan, with a hint of ingratiation, extended both of her hands and grasped Jiang Cheng's hands: "I will try my best..."

Soon, the two were led into the private room by the waiter.

The moment the door to the private room was pushed open, Lei Jun was standing with his back to the door, whispering something to his female companion.

Hearing the noise, he immediately turned around.

His face instantly lit up with a broad, warm smile.

He extended his hand from a few steps away, his gaze landing precisely on Jiang Cheng, his tone warm and just right: "Mr. Jiang, thank you for the honor, welcome, welcome."

Jiang Cheng smiled and returned the handshake, his tone devoid of emotion: "Mr. Lei, you're too kind."

After speaking, he stepped aside twice to let Wang Yuyan step forward and introduced her: "This is Wang Yuyan, who is in charge of the brand operation of our hotel project. She will also be fully responsible for the subsequent cooperation with Yunmi."

The moment Wang Yuyan saw Lei Jun after the door to the private room was pushed open, she gasped for breath.

Mr. Lei?

The "Lei Zong" that Jiang Cheng mentioned was actually Lei Jun?

Although she had previously accompanied and received some CEOs at Aman Resorts.

But now, having to talk to the bigwig face-to-face about a collaboration, she felt her heart skip a beat.

Subconsciously, he straightened his back, and his already tense fingertips curled up even more, and even the smile on his face carried a hint of surprise that he couldn't hide.

After suppressing her panic, she put on a polite smile and extended her hand to Lei Jun.

"Mr. Lei, hello, nice to meet you~"

"Hello."

After giving Jiang Cheng a perfunctory handshake, Lei Jun led him to a seat at the dining table.

After the guests and hosts were seated, the waiters brought out menus in a continuous stream. Lei Jun casually pushed one in front of Jiang Cheng, making a show of it: "Mr. Jiang, please order first."

Jiang Cheng didn't stand on ceremony. He flipped through a couple of pages and ordered a few light Cantonese dishes. He then handed the menu to Wang Yuyan, his eyes filled with indulgence: "See if there's anything you want to eat."

Wang Yuyan took it, added only one dessert, and then handed it to Lei Jun's female companion.

This subtle gesture caught Lei Jun's eye, earning him a hint of appreciation.

Given Jiang Cheng's current scale and resources, he also holds landmark hotel projects.

Why not use so many experienced and accomplished industry veterans?

Entrusting such a heavy responsibility to this young girl is already quite unusual.

As a fellow bigwig, how could he not understand?

The girl looked to be in her early twenties, with a youthful innocence and clarity in her eyes.

It's obvious that he has gained Jiang Cheng's favor, which is why he was able to surpass a group of seniors and sit in this position with full authority over cooperation and coordination.

The waiter took away the menu and left, and the atmosphere in the private room eased a bit.

Lei Jun picked up his teacup, took a sip, and casually glanced at Wang Yuyan, posing a question that was actually a probing question.

"Miss Wang has an outstanding presence; she must be formally trained. Which university did she study hotel management at?"

Wang Yuyan didn't hide anything at all and spoke openly and generously.

“I have no formal training in hotel management. I used to work at Amanyangyun. A few months ago, Mr. Jiang sent me to Switzerland for further study, where I learned about the operation and management of high-end hotels.”

Upon hearing this, a knowing glint flashed in Lei Jun's eyes.

As expected, it was just as I had guessed.

Not only did Lei Jun guess it, but his female companion also understood instantly.

In that instant of understanding, she couldn't help but look up and scrutinize Wang Yuyan again.

Seeing Wang Yuyan sitting next to Jiang Cheng, her posture relaxed and neither humble nor arrogant, a hint of barely perceptible envy flashed in her eyes.

She was just an accessory, a figurehead, working alongside the big boss.

But Wang Yuyan was the project leader entrusted with an important task, and that alone gave her a level of prestige that Wang Yuyan couldn't match.
