The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 467: Chapter 208 Let Him Scram_4

He mused how he was, after all, one of Zhang Shihao’s early comrades in building the company, witnessing Wuyou’s rise every step of the way. His contributions weren’t trivial at all, so why?

When it came to the Brioni incident, Zheng Shifeng had his own sources. Coupled with the subsequent involvement of Hermes, which seemed related to the mysterious new director, Zheng Shifeng understood—

It wasn’t Zhang Shihao targeting him; rather, he was trying to show respect to the new director, who was apparently a new shareholder too.

When he learned that the new dress meant for Qian Xun had ended up on Hua Suisui, Zheng Shifeng felt even more at ease.

So Mr. Zhang preferred this type, explaining why Hua Suisui hadn’t had any scandals over the years. If it weren’t for the dress incident today, he might not have figured it out...

Mr. Zhang sure knows how to play the game.

Who wouldn’t love a young-looking mature woman?

But unfortunately, Hua Suisui, who seemed naive, was actually quite hard to fool. So eventually, Zheng Shifeng wisely gave up, fortunately without having done anything...

Feeling that he had grasped Mr. Zhang’s ”little secret,” Zheng Shifeng felt even more relaxed.

However, he didn’t know who the handsome guy accompanying Hua Suisui down the red carpet was. But since the artist department was always under Mr. Zhang’s supervision, he couldn’t interfere. He figured it was a newly signed influencer using Hua Suisui to gain attention.

Judging by the rising buzz now, it seemed to have worked well.

Naturally, Qian Xun and Qian Xun’s sister came to make a fuss again. At this moment, Zheng Shifeng was in a foul mood because he had to promise quite a few things to pacify the sisters. Yet, after turning around, he ran into Zhang Dada creating a scene...

”Don’t worry, take your time, I’ll surely give you an explanation for this.”

Suppressing his impatience, Zheng Shifeng, as usual, consoled Zhang Dada and his manager.

”Even if I was a bit late due to feeling unwell, it wasn’t so bad that I couldn’t have a few minutes on the red carpet, right? It’s laughable you just gave my spot to Hua Suisui and some unknown internet celebrity. What will people think if this spreads out? How will I survive...”

Zhang Dada said sarcastically, subconsciously twirling his fingers.

As Zhang Dada spoke, his peripheral vision caught Hua Suisui and Endme walking by. He couldn’t help but call out with a feigned smile: ”Hey, isn’t this Suisui...”

At this moment, Zheng Shifeng felt truly nauseated, but he, of course, couldn’t let things escalate, so he quickly leaned in and quietly interrupted: ”Dada, you see, Hua Suisui is Mr. Zhang’s person.”

Zhang Dada’s smile froze, and he immediately went silent.

With a confused look from Hua Suisui, Zheng Shifeng waved for them to leave first, reluctantly saying: ”So this might really be a misunderstanding. How about letting this slide for now? It wouldn’t be good to alert Mr. Zhang, would it?”

...

On the same side, in an elegantly decorated VIP lounge.

At this moment, the doors of the lounge were wide open. A few middle-aged men and women in jackets or simple long dresses laughed as they exited, turning to shake hands with Zhang Shihao and Zhou Wang who were seeing them off.

”No need to see us off, we must hurry and prepare for the performance, otherwise we really might forget our lines if we keep chatting, haha...”

A leader from the cultural tourism sector joked, prompting laughter from everyone present.

”Meng, and everyone else, we won’t see you off too far then; Mr. Zhou and I look forward to enjoying your fantastic performance.”

Zhang Shihao laughed as well.

”After the performance, we have a meeting summoned by our superiors. So, we might not have time to meet again. Mr. Zhang is an old acquaintance, but I must say, Mr. Zhou is quite young and promising, leaving a deep impression today. You absolutely must visit us someday, for us to play the host...”

Meng smiled as he held Zhou Wang’s hand, inviting him with appreciation.

”Absolutely, absolutely, your humor and openness are infectious, overturning my stereotypes about your industry. Your cities are top tourist destinations on my list, and I will definitely contact you all when I get a chance...”

Zhou Wang replied with a modest smile, sincerely shaking hands with everyone.

Although they didn’t rank highly, being chosen as public faces in this era meant none of them were simple, with all of them under 45, an age of true youth and strength.

Watching the group of executives, guided by staff, proceed to the changing rooms with laughter, Zhang Shihao only relaxed his face when they disappeared around the corner.

”Damn, that was hilarious...”

”Yeah, it really was.”

Zhou Wang’s face was also a bit stiff, and exchanging a look with Zhang Shihao, they almost burst into laughter again, barely holding it back.

”Brother, let Biao take you to the VIP seats; there’s a place saved for you. We have some special guests today. They don’t need much hosting, but I should at least greet them.”

Zhang Shihao said with mild helplessness: ”You might have finished laughing, but I haven’t.”

Zhou Wang couldn’t suppress another laugh, bowing seriously: ”Thank you, elder brother!”

”Thank you too, younger brother!”

Zhang Shihao likewise returned the gesture, barely holding back his laughter as he prepared to leave. But before he left, he glanced at his phone and casually asked: ”By the way, were you behind that incident with Zhang Dada?”

As the head of Wuyou, he couldn’t allow even the tiniest hiccup in such an important event. Although Zheng Shifeng was officially in charge, any movement at the gala would reach his ears immediately.
