Capítulo 1101: Chapter 694: Shen Qingning Returns
Cheng Zhu is “sick,” but it’s not a serious illness.
He’s just ill enough to need rest and can’t handle the heavy workload of Youuqu and Youu Tea.
At tis like this, there has to be a distinction between what’s important and what’s not.
Judging from the current developnt trend, naturally, Youuqu is more important, and Youu Tea is less so.
Mr. Cheng, you’re already so sick that you need to work from ho.
As the official girlfriend, Lin Lu offered to take care of him.
“Can you spare the ti recently?” Cheng Zhu asked.
[Bo Te] is really busy right now. They recently launched a phenonal hit, and the blind boxes are selling like crazy!
Recently, the online buzz around Bo Te’s blind boxes has been astonishing, becoming the hottest trend in the country.
Especially so of the hidden models have beco a way for many young people to show off on social platforms.
In addition, Jiang Wanzhou and Lin Lu took Cheng Zhu’s advice and launched a few large collectible figures similar to the Violent Bear, but in very limited quantities.
As expected, the prices on the secondary market skyrocketed instantly.
Scarcity increases value, and ultimately, it’s a strategy of hunger marketing.
Their purpose, in fact, is not to make money.
It’s to create a buzz!
This has made work particularly demanding for Jiang Wanzhou and Lin Lu recently.
After receiving his WeChat ssage, Little Lu replied imdiately, “But you’re sick.”
“It’s just a cold with a slight fever, nothing serious. You know how strong I am. A couple of days of good sleep will do.” Cheng Zhu replied.
After sending that, he added, “Besides, if you stay with at night, it might affect my recovery.”
Having been together for so long and having been intimate many tis, Nai Lu instantly understood the subtext of Cheng Zhu’s words.
“Go to hell!” She even sent an abstract emoji of a cat waving its fist.
As a result, with Cheng Zhu unable to manage Youu Tea’s affairs, the pressure fell on Shen Qingning, the second-in-command.
For a mont, all the company’s top executives could do was “invite the god,” to ask Mr. Shen, who is on vacation, to return to his position.
This vacation can be taken again soti later, right?
Didn’t we all co through this the sa way?
Currently, Youu Tea is in a stage of great profitability.
After ending the frenzy of cash-burning expansion, it’s recently making money hand over fist, to say the least.
It’s like a printing press, an absolute cash cow!
If sothing went wrong now, the losses would be significant!
“The key point is, Mr. Cheng won’t give us the power!”
At this mont, Ningning is already far away in Yun Province.
Since she arrived here, she has visited nurous tea gardens.
She says it’s a vacation, but she’s actually eting with a few suppliers.
Besides, she is well aware of Cheng Zhu’s plans to produce a slightly cheaper fresh milk tea in the future.
So, it might be necessary to find so new suppliers.
Upon learning that Cheng Zhu was sick, Shen Aojiao’s first thought was: “Serves him right!”
Then, she was deeply conflicted.
Clearly, Cheng Zhu’s previous “binding the Shen family” plan was implented exceedingly smoothly.
Now, not only can Shen Qingning not leave Youu Tea, but the entire Shen family is tied to this big ship of Youu Tea!
Especially now, with this cash cow going wild!
We’ve ntioned before that the Shen family has a lot of assets, but their cash flow has always been tight.
Youu Tea’s current profitability is precisely what the Shen family desperately needs.
Moreover, Ningning is undoubtedly a highly responsible person.
She’s been the second-in-command of Youu Tea for so long, and although it seems she’s taking a break these days, she still can’t let go, still isn’t at ease.
She wants to clear her mind during the journey and then find answers.
But she didn’t find any; she remains exceptionally confused.
But sotis life is such that not finding an answer is, in fact… an answer in itself.
….
….
The next day, feeling uneasy about Youu Tea, Shen Qingning took a flight back to Hang City.
Her return instantly reassured everyone at Youu Tea.
You must know that with two big bosses, one sick and the other on vacation, what are they supposed to do?
As for the so-called third boss, Shen Ming Lang… well, never mind!
The tsundere girl’s thoughts were simple: after all, Cheng Zhu is sick, so they probably won’t et for these few days.
She is very career-driven.
She has invested a lot of energy in Youu Tea.
Upon returning to the company, Mr. Shen got busy imdiately.
She worked nonstop until it was almost six in the afternoon before she finished her day’s work.
Assistant Liu Qing stood in the office, waiting for her to sign off on so docunts.
Shen Qingning put down the pen and looked up at Liu Qing. After a mont of hesitation, she finally asked, “Why did Mr. Cheng get sick?”
At this point, she didn’t even want to say his na.
Liu Qing heard this and felt the need to show so initiative!
“Mr. Cheng has been juggling Youu Tea and Youuqu recently, with endless tasks every day. A few days ago, he was at the company until eight or nine at night before going ho.”
“A few days ago, I heard him cough occasionally.”
“He probably wanted you to have a good vacation and was afraid Mr. Shen would worry, so he didn’t say anything,” Liu Qing said.
——The couple I ship, I’ll protect them myself!
Moreover, she didn’t feel she was lying.
During this period, she had indeed witnessed the extent of Mr. Cheng’s busyness.
Shen Qingning heard this and nodded silently.
In fact, after that wild night in Yangcheng, Cheng Zhu really hadn’t contacted her.
But the human heart is truly strange.
Ningning felt a bit scared he’d contact her, yet she also wished he would reach out.
Fortunately, Cheng Zhu had previously used Liu Qing as a tool, making good use of her.
Thus, she could indirectly feel Cheng Zhu’s concern for her.
However, Shen Qingning never expected him to actually collapse from exhaustion.
“Does he actually know how to get tired?” she muttered internally with a hint of disdain.
She put down the pen in her hand, looked up at Liu Qing, and said, “Alright, I understand.”
Liu Qing observed her secretly, noticing that Mr. Shen’s expression hadn’t changed much.
Silently, the assistant speculated: Maybe they’re having a cold war recently?
But on second thought, Liu Qing felt it was nothing unusual.
Only fake couples are always doing well; real couples surely have their argunts!
Anyone who’s been in love knows that!
…
…
After finishing a day of work, Shen Qingning drove ho.
She didn’t return to Xinhang Apartnt; she went back to her villa.
The reason was simple, she was still avoiding.
—Avoidance may be shaful, but it’s useful.
In fact, in real life, the most common solution to vague relationships like this is for both parties to play dumb and pretend nothing happened.
Those who’ve experienced it understand.
It’s just that due to Cheng Zhu and Shen Qingning’s personalities, they might not reach such an understanding.
Honestly, at this stage, Shen Qingning thought she might as well go all out if she saw Cheng Zhu.
“At worst… at worst, I’ll bite him again!”
What she feared most right now was eting Lin Lu!
The Land Rover drove into the garage, and Shen Qingning carried her bag upstairs.
“Ningning, vacation’s over?” Young stepmother Wang Yushan greeted her.
“Mm.” Shen Qingning answered softly.
“Why do you seem a bit down?” Wang Yushan asked.
She wasn’t much older than Shen Qingning, and they usually interacted more like friends than mother and daughter.
“Just a bit tired, been working overti at the company,” the leggy replied.
“Working overti as soon as you get back? You really should take care of your health,” Wang Yushan reminded her.
“Mm, okay, I know.”
Then she said to Wang Yushan, “Auntie, I’m a bit tired, I’ll go upstairs first.”
“Alright, hey, Ningning, did you have dinner?”
“I’m not hungry, so I’ll skip it.”
“Then… alright, if you get hungry, just tell Aunt Zhang.”
“Okay.”
After returning to her room, Shen Qingning went to the bathroom for a hot shower, then changed into pajamas, and lay on the bed, wrapping herself tightly.
She seed very sleepy lately.
Because as long as she was asleep, she didn’t have to think about anything.
…
…
Two days later, ti passed, and Cheng Zhu really didn’t go to Youu Tea, he actually seed sick.
He believed in going all-in when acting a role.
At this mont, if Ningning felt he was deceiving her again, it would be trouble.
Furthermore, he was well aware that Shen Qingning couldn’t wander outside forever; she’d eventually have to co back.
He was just giving her an excuse.
“Cheng Zhu, you’re really thoughtful,” the shaless man praised himself inwardly.
He planned to see Ningning in a couple of days, ready to act according to circumstances.
Today, sothing he had been looking forward to was happening.
“China Has Hip-Hop” was about to premiere!
Youuqu had invested quite a bit in sponsoring this show.
However, compared to the sponsorship fees for top-tier shows, it was relatively cheaper.
After all, this kind of show was a new format dostically.
At this mont, hip-hop culture was still sowhat underground.
Therefore, the top-rated male star who went on to sew the show often stated, “If it weren’t for , this show wouldn’t exist.”
In the previous era, TikTok rode on the wave of “China Has Hip-Hop,” rapidly gaining traffic and popularity in 2017.
“Now, Youuqu and Kuai Shou’s daily active users are less than ten million apart.”
Cheng Zhu valued this sumr highly.
He hoped to attract enough young users during the sumr vacation, especially students.
And this show surely wouldn’t disappoint him.
There’s no helping it; this kind of rap show was just too entertaining, and it had enough controversies!
To be precise, in the later seasons, the tension never felt as heavy as in the first season!
Besides, Eric Wu, well, he really had a knack for creating s.
Soon after the show aired, his catchphrase from the show instantly went viral online.
The phrase he uttered in the show topped the trending lists across major social dia platforms:
“Do you have freestyle?”
Overnight, the popularity of “China Has Hip-Hop” started to soar!
The advertising effect for Youuqu in the show hit full marks!
