Escaping marriage for billions: the world is as black as the king of vinegar

"You don't plan to talk to me about the second phase of cooperation, do you? Zhou Ruineng agrees?"

Cheng Sijing looked at Lu Zeming, he liked Lu Zeming's cleverness, but being too smart is not always a good thing.

"In the second phase of cooperation, everyone in the industry stared wide-eyed and wanted to win opportunities, so I decided to open the bidding. Of course, I very much hope that the Lu Group can step in."

Cheng Sijing's tone was calm, and Lu Zeming's smile gradually deepened.

"It seems that Mr. Cheng intends to swallow up the Zhou family on purpose. Also, the Zhou family has something to do with the Su family's affairs. Mr. Cheng is planning to deal with the Zhou family in order to please his girlfriend, right?"

When Lu Zeming said this, he didn't forget to pay attention to Cheng Sijing's movements. He felt that Cheng Sijing was becoming more and more unpredictable.

Facing Lu Zeming's arrogance, Cheng Sijing did not hide it.

"It seems that Mr. Lu and the Zhou family have made a very clear investigation, but Mr. Lu should understand that if the Zhou family is not eliminated, it will not be a good thing for you and me."

"That's right, but Mr. Cheng wants the Lu Corporation to get in the way. I wonder if there is any benefit?"

Lu Zeming is a businessman, he only considers whether there is any gain in doing things, he will not make wedding dresses for others for no reason.

Seeing Lu Zeming like this, Cheng Sijing spoke quietly.

"Su Li, how about this bargaining chip?"

As soon as Cheng Sijing said this, Lu Zeming's face suddenly turned aside. He stared at Cheng Sijing with dissatisfaction, and his tone was even more icy cold.

"Cheng Sijing, if you can't hold Su Li in your palm, then don't play with her feelings."

Lu Zeming originally thought that Cheng Sijing wanted to associate with Su Li sincerely, but now it seems that things are not like this, Su Li is not someone they can transfer to each other.

Realizing that Lu Zeming was angry, Cheng Sijing smiled and said.

"It seems that you still don't know Su Li well enough. Su Li has always only had you in her heart. It is you who want to give up on her, not her who wants to give up on you."

"But now you are boyfriend and girlfriend."

"Oh, I can ask you to meet and say that I want to cooperate with you, can't I cooperate with her?"

"you……"

Lu Zeming didn't finish the rest of the sentence, but he understood the meaning of Cheng Sijing's words.

Cheng Sijing looked at him and continued talking.

"Today, Mr. Lu can think about my proposal carefully. It's getting late, so I'll leave first. Mr. Lu can contact my assistant if there is anything."

Looking at the back of Cheng Sijing leaving, Lu Zeming fell into deep thought.

It seems that this game will become more and more fun.

Cheng Sijing left from the Orff Stadium. On the way, Wang Chen told Cheng Sijing the news from Zhou Rui, and Cheng Sijing smiled and said nothing.

"Mr. Cheng, do you think Miss Su's actions this time will make Zhou Rui feel bad?"

"No, in Zhou Rui's mind, he must think that Su Li cares about being with me, so he doesn't want to do him that favor. It just so happens that we need to meet this person in person, don't we?"

The smile in Cheng Sijing's eyes was fleeting, and everything he planned was just the beginning.

Cheng Sijing asked Zhou Rui to meet at a high-end private club. Zhou Rui didn't seem to have thought that Cheng Sijing would invite him here.

The two sat down in the private room, Zhou Xiang and Wang Chen were also there.

Cheng Sijing was making tea there, but Zhou Rui didn't speak for a long time.

Only Cheng Sijing's voice could be heard.

"I know Mr. Zhou has been wanting to meet with me all this time, in order to talk about the second phase of cooperation, right?"

"Since Mr. Cheng knows, then I won't beat around the bush..."

"Mr. Zhou may not be aware of the current policy of the higher-ups. This is a project in cooperation with the state. It is not up to me to decide. The first phase of cooperation with the Zhou Group in Lecheng has worked well, and the higher-ups are also very satisfied. But the second phase of cooperation means open bidding.”

As soon as Cheng Sijing said this, Zhou Rui's face changed a little, and Cheng Sijing continued to speak.

"The public bidding is not only for Lecheng, but for the whole country. Of course, the top three bidders in each region will enter the general bidding. Of course, the Zhou Group can directly enter the general bidding because they have cooperated in the first phase of the project. With the preparation time of one month, Mr. Zhou can make good preparations."

Zhou Rui didn't digest the meaning of completing the Sijing for a while, he thought for a while and continued to ask.

"Mr. Cheng, I'm just curious why the second phase of the project is going to be open for bidding so suddenly?"

"It's very simple. The first phase is very successful, and the higher-ups are very satisfied, but you have to understand that I am just an errand runner for such government cooperation projects. The real decision-making power is really not in my hands. Maybe the higher-ups think the first phase is good. Yes, the second phase can be better."

What Cheng Sijing said was relatively cryptic, but Zhou Rui understood the meaning of Cheng Sijing's words, so he tried to continue talking.

"Then is there any benefit for the Zhou Group to participate in the general bidding?"

"Being able to participate in the general bidding is the biggest benefit for you from above. As far as I know, there are more than 20 companies in Lecheng participating in the bidding, but in the end only the top two will be selected, and the other place has long been directly given to Zhou's company. Group, you have already become the envy of everyone in the industry, so there is no need to continue to worry about it."

Things are already like this, maybe this is the best result, although Zhou Rui is unwilling to say anything.

"I understand what Mr. Cheng means. Don't worry, Mr. Cheng. The Zhou Group will definitely live up to expectations."

"That's good. Zhou is always a smart person. I just follow the rules and regulations, so I still hope that Mr. Zhou will not embarrass Su Li too much. Most of the time, she doesn't care about my work."

"What did Mr. Cheng say? Su Li is an employee of my company. As long as she does a good job, I will definitely not say anything. What's more, I and their family are also family friends. There is no such thing."

"I didn't know exactly what happened to the Su family back then, but Su Li told me a little bit. Fortunately, those hard days are over. Now that she has me by her side, there will be good days in the future."

Cheng Sijing's words seemed to be lamenting, but actually he wanted to remind Zhou Rui that Su Li was his man, and he wanted Zhou Rui to be careful in his daily work.

After understanding the meaning of Cheng Sijing's words, Zhou Rui didn't dare to say anything on the face even though he was furious.

On the way back, Zhou Rui told Zhou Xiang.

"Go and tell the manager of the HR department, don't embarrass Su Li. She is the ancestor of the Zhou Group now. If you can offer her up, do your best and don't provoke her."

"President, is it really so serious?"

Zhou Xiang really didn't understand why Zhou Rui had to worry about Su Li when he did things. Su Li just had a date with a powerful boyfriend, and it was nothing.

Seeing that Zhou Xiang didn't use any brains on this matter, Zhou Rui was a little unhappy.

"The first-phase project of cooperation with Chengsijing not only made us a lot of money, but also increased our popularity. The new companies that are now cooperating with us are only willing to do so because we have had cooperation projects with the Guodu government. Cooperate with us. But once we lose that layer of relationship, something will happen to Baoqi."

"But that has nothing to do with Su Li?"

"Idiot, what do you think Cheng Sijing meant when he mentioned Su Li today? He just wanted to warn me to be nice to Su Li. He didn't want Su Li to be wronged. You don't know the character of the manager of the HR department. I guess it's because of him." Su Li is annoyed."

If it was Su Li in the past, Zhou Rui really didn't worry about anything, but now that Su Li has the backing of Cheng Sijing, Zhou Rui still has to be more careful in doing things.

Listening to Zhou Rui's words, Zhou Xiangshu understood the truth, Zhou Xiang promised.

"Then I'll go and make arrangements, no matter what, I have to save face."

"Go."

Su Li was still reading in the office, and the manager of the HR department came to find her in person. Su Li was a little puzzled by this.

Although she didn't understand what the other party was going to do, Su Li still faced it calmly.

"Why did the manager come to see me at this time?"

"Mr. Zhou said he wanted me to take care of you more, and that he wanted to enshrine you like an ancestor, so I specially prepared fruits and pastries and sent them to Deputy Manager Su."

The manager's words were ambiguous, but Su Li readily accepted the other party's kindness.

"Then put it here, thank you manager."

The manager just glanced at Su Li, then turned and left the office. Su Li had no intention of getting up to see her off. In her opinion, the manager had a good temper, but she was not easy to bully.

After get off work, Su Li told Hu Yao and Lin Lang about this matter, and Hu Yao couldn't help complaining about it.

"This Chengsi state is too powerful, and actually forced Zhou Rui to confess you, but that's good, at least you won't be bullied after being in the Zhou Group."

The more Hu Yao thought about it, the more interesting it became, but Lin Lang spoke up.

"I always feel that Zhou Rui'an has no good intentions, you'd better be careful."

Facing Hu Yao and Lin Lang's concern, Su Li was very helpful.

"I don't know exactly what he thinks now, but Cheng Sijing told me not to take Zhou Group's affairs too seriously, because there will be a good show soon."

"You mean the public bidding thing?"

"Brother Lin Lang, the news from your side is really powerful, did you know it so soon?"

"It's not that I'm good. It's the legal team for this public bidding. My law firm is one of the teams, so I know something about it."

"It seems that this public bidding is really the intention of the government, and even the legal affairs team has hired several teams."

Thinking of this, Su Li feels that Cheng Sijing's strategy is very good, and it is estimated that there will be a lot of blood and rain in the future.

"By the way, I'm going to register the company, and I'm going to be busy with the relevant procedures recently, Brother Lin Lang, I have to trouble your law firm to see who can take charge of this matter, mainly because I'm not very familiar with the relevant legal provisions. Understand, there are always some risks to be avoided.”

Su Li spoke seriously, and Lin Lang spoke with a smile.

"Leave your affairs to me, don't worry."

"Yes, Su Li, you can do it for him. If he can't do it well, I'll make him suffer."

"it is good."

Su Li can see that the interaction between Hu Yao and Lin Lang is very loving, so she doesn't have to worry about anything, as long as Hu Yao and Lin Lang can be together well, she will definitely support them as good friends.

It is not easy for a person to meet someone who loves each other in this life. What Su Li can't get, he naturally hopes that his good friends can get it.

In this way, Su Li started to dawdle in the Zhou Group every day, and Lin Lang was also helping her with the formalities, and she began to learn about fashion design. She was trained by her mother before, and she is still very good at designing. It's just that what she wants to do is to separate her own design from the previous Su family's brand. She wants to make clothes that match the fashion trend, but there are still elements of happy embroidery.

The news of Cheng Sijing's public bidding was widely circulated for a while, and many companies in Lecheng were eager to make a move. No matter if it was a big company or a small company, anyway, it didn't cost money to sign up to participate in the bidding. Everyone wanted to try it.

Of course, at the same time, everyone envied Zhou's Group for being able to directly enter the general bidding, and even occupying a spot in Lecheng.
