118: Chapter 0118 Essential Points of the Jade Lotus
Mothers are honored through their children, and people are respected because of their friends.
Although Qiu Changqing’s net worth wasn’t insignificant, it was only when compared to the average person.
To n like Ge Yilun and Zhang Tanqiu, even if Qiu Changqing was slightly stronger, he wasn’t significantly so.
Yet, to their surprise, he actually knew Xia Tianjing from Tianjing Group, and they seed quite familiar with each other, instantly widening the gap between him and everyone else.
“Yo, what a coincidence!” Xia Tianjing reached out his hand.
Qiu Changqing hurriedly leaned forward slightly, both hands eting his: “Indeed, I was just saying I planned to get together with so old classmates, and here I run into Mr.
Xia!”
“Old classmates?” Xia Tianjing glanced at Mu Bingtong with so surprise and asked: “President Mu, he’s your old classmate?”
“Yes!” Qiu Changqing had no doubts and nodded in response: “I just ca back from abroad and called them out to catch up.”
“Aiyo, you should’ve said so earlier!” Xia Tianjing slapped his thigh: “Just now, I got the cold shoulder from President Mu.
Well, since you’re old classmates, help
persuade President Mu.
It’s not a big deal, just toasting a drink as well as introducing her to a big shot!”
“Ah?” Qiu Changqing looked troubled.
As a classmate, he had a general understanding of Mu Bingtong’s personality: aloof, independent, and not easily swayed by others.
Seeing Qiu Changqing’s hesitation, Xia Tianjing patted him on the shoulder and earnestly said: “Little Qiu, don’t bla your brother for not warning you, but right now you’re facing a great opportunity.
Whether you can seize it is up to you!”
Qiu Changqing’s heart skipped a beat.
He ca to Shanghai, hoping to carve out a career, but in this society, without help, it was hard to achieve anything significant on his own.
“Mr.
Xia.” Although the music in the bar was loud and raucous, Qiu Changqing still involuntarily lowered his voice: “How big exactly is this opportunity you’re talking about?”
“How big?” Xia Tianjing chuckled: “Let
give you the lowdown—I’m just a tagalong.
Soone like , a nobody, they don’t even notice.”
“Ss—” Qiu Changqing gasped.
Who was Xia Tianjing?
The chairman of Tianjing Group, the future heir, a true billionaire tycoon!
For soone to treat him like a nobody…
Qiu Changqing didn’t dare imagine the level of influence the other party had.
“What do you think, made up your mind?” Xia Tianjing asked with a smile.
As an experienced businessman, the mont he saw struggle in Qiu Changqing’s eyes, he already knew his choice.
Now, the question was purely to stoke the fire a bit more.
“Alright, I’ll follow your advice!” As expected, Qiu Changqing nodded firmly.
“What are those two whispering about?” Mu Bingtong leaned in close to Chu Ge, asking softly.
When Qiu Changqing shook hands with Xia Tianjing a mont ago, they had already left the booth and walked over to the bar to talk.
“What else could it be?” Chu Ge sneered: “It’s just that Xia guy promising Qiu Changqing so benefits, then having him co over to convince you.”
Sure enough, shortly after Chu Ge’s remark, Qiu Changqing approached, with Xia Tianjing following right behind.
“Um, Mu Bingtong.” Qiu Changqing put on a friendly smile, addressing Mu Bingtong: “Mr.
Xia ans well, you know.
As the saying goes, the more friends, the more paths open to you, especially since you’re all by yourself in Shanghai.
Don’t worry, Mr.
Xia is my friend, with guaranteed integrity.
He just wants you to toast a drink, that’s all.”
“That’s right,” Xia Tianjing erged from behind Qiu Changqing, holding a glass of wine, the very image of a successful businessman: “To be honest, I’m actually accompanying a VIP tonight.
I an well, wanting President Mu to toast a drink just to get acquainted, would make things smoother for you in Shanghai!”
“Scram.”
Chu Ge’s voice chilled the atmosphere.
“What do you an?” Xia Tianjing’s gaze shifted to Chu Ge, and upon seeing his cheap casual clothes, his eyes couldn’t hide a mocking glint: “Where did this dead broke ghost co from, sneaking into a place like this?
Do you believe
if I say, just with that word of yours, I can have you completely jobless in Shanghai?”
“Whether or not you can make
jobless isn’t for discussion.” Chu Ge faced Xia Tianjing and slowly stood up: “But I know if you don’t scram now, you’ll be beaten to the point of wetting yourself.”
Xia Tianjing, whose stature was only around 1.6 ters, seed tiny in front of Chu Ge’s 1.83 ters.
Plus, his perpetual indulgence in luxury had sapped his strength, and feeling Chu Ge’s subtle intimidating pressure, his legs had already begun to tremble.
“Alright, alright!” One must not lose face even in defeat.
Though frightened inside, Xia Tianjing still pretended to be fearless, but his pale complexion was impossible to hide: “You just wait, you’ll pay for those words!”
Watching Xia Tianjing’s embarrassed retreat, Chu Ge shook his head and chuckled.
But before his smile faded, Qiu Changqing’s angry voice suddenly rang out from one side: “Driving away Mr.
Xia, feeling proud, are you?”
“Hm?” Chu Ge turned his head, his eyes narrowly scrutinizing Qiu Changqing.
“Do you think you’re so impressive?” Qiu Changqing, now blinded by rage, yelled loudly: “Do you think you’re so mighty?
Putting up a tough front in front of Mu Bingtong, feeling cool, is that it?”
Zhang Tanqiu’s face changed slightly, and he gently tugged at Qiu Changqing’s clothes.
After all, with Mu Bingtong still there, so things shouldn’t be spoken too bluntly.
But at this mont, Qiu Changqing was beyond such concerns.
His plans for starting a company in Shanghai were mostly dependent on Manager Xia; with Chu Ge having thoroughly offended Xia Tianjing, it was inevitable that he would be affected as well.
“Do you even know who Xia Tianjing is?” Qiu Changqing persisted as Chu Ge remained silent, getting even more worked up: “He’s the general manager of Tianjing Group, the future heir!
My plan to start a company in Shanghai depends mostly on his help.
Ha, but you, just to feel a mont of satisfaction, directly pissed off Mr.
Xia, do you know how much loss this could cause ?”
“Is that so?” Now, Chu Ge finally spoke, his voice cold as he faced Qiu Changqing: “I don’t understand your so-called business, nor do I know anything about so Mr.
Xia.
All I know is that using a woman, especially an old classmate, to obtain wealth and status, I only want to ask you one question—are you incapable of saving a shred of dignity?”
