Chapter 38 -38: Stubborn Xia Yubing

“Director, Mr.

Chen has arrived.”

Chen Cheng, led by Tong Jialu, stepped into Xia Yubing’s office.

As the door opened, he saw that beautiful cold face, greeting him with an incredibly warm smile.

“Mr.

Chen!” Xia Yubing approached, “We meet again.”

Her gaze, like Tong Jialu’s, paused slightly behind Chen Cheng before moving away and looking back at Chen Cheng.

“Director Xia.” Chen Cheng nodded.

“That…

has Mr.

Jin arrived yet?” Xia Yubing asked nervously.

“Mr.

Jin is currently not in Beijing.” Chen Cheng responded calmly, while Tong Jialu added, “However, he has authorized Mr.

Chen to handle this matter on his behalf.”

“I see…” Xia Yubing’s smile at the corners of her mouth slightly tightened.

Chen Cheng cleared his throat, “There’s no need for him to personally make a trip for a financial management of several hundred million, right?”

Tong Jialu repeatedly agreed, “Yes, yes, yes, it was our negligence!

For a client like Mr.

Jin, a personal visit would indeed be better.”

She then gave Xia Yubing a way out, “Director, would you like to introduce the products to Mr.

Chen here?”

Xia Yubing gestured for Chen Cheng to come in, “Mr.

Chen, this way please.”

“Alright.”

“I’ll go get something for Mr.

Chen to drink.” Tong Jialu quickly asked, “Mr.

Chen, would you like water, coffee, or tea?”

Chen Cheng walked over to the sofa and sat down, “Mineral water will do.”

Tong Jialu left the office, and Xia Yubing elegantly sat across from Chen Cheng.

Her plain work attire unexpectedly exuded a charm of uniform temptation, especially the snow-white insteps visible beneath the trouser legs of her suit, smooth as silk.

With Xia Yubing’s lofty, abstinent demeanor, even Chen Cheng couldn’t help but take an extra glance at her.

Accustomed to such gazes from the opposite sex, Xia Yubing slowly rearranged her hair and asked, “Mr.

Chen, this is our second meeting, isn’t it?”

It was actually the third time Chen Cheng had seen her, only once, Xia Yubing hadn’t noticed him.

So, he nodded.

“Later, Xiao Tong will introduce the financial products to you,” Xia Yubing continued, “If you have any questions or concerns, both Xiao Tong and I will answer them for you.”

Chen Cheng felt a sudden jolt in his heart.

“Are they really trying to sell me a product?” he mused.

“Director Xia, about the financial matter, we can discuss it slowly,” Chen Cheng maintained his composure, smiling, “But I do have a question that I’d like to ask before learning about the product.”

Xia Yubing gestured, “Go ahead.”

“The first loan I processed through your bank, you approved 3 million for me.

In that, how much did that bird cost?”

Xia Yubing was somewhat taken aback by the direct topic.

“Mr.

Chen, you really have a sense of humor!” Xia Yubing feigned ease, “Your loan was rigorously reviewed by our credit department.

Wasn’t your company eligible to get that amount of money?”

Chen Cheng silently nodded, “And the second time with the commercial bills?

That’s also because of my company’s qualifications?”

“Of course, you are our valued client.”

“Really?” Chen Cheng confirmed again, “There were no other factors considered?”

“No, everything followed standard procedures, completely official.”

Chen Cheng’s lips curled into a smile, “In that case, I think there is no need for us to continue this discussion.”

After saying that, he stood up.

Xia Yubing was confused, “Mr.

Chen, what do you mean by…”

“Mr.

Jin sent me here primarily because he felt that your bank offered significant convenience on my entrepreneurial journey.”

Chen Cheng paused for a moment, “Since, Director Xia, you’ve said that my company was worth this much money originally and everything is handled in an official manner, then there’s no need to return the favor, right?”

Creak~

Just at this moment, the door to the office was pushed open.

Tong Jialu, who came in with bottled water and documents, saw Chen Cheng about to leave and felt a chill in her heart.

She hurriedly hooked the door with her foot in an attempt to keep him: “Brother Cheng, what’s going on?

Don’t rush off!”

Xia Yubing, infuriated by Chen Cheng’s unusual behavior, initially wanted to dominate the conversation, but found herself losing control after just a few words from Chen Cheng.

Chen Cheng, with one hand in his pocket, said, “Xiao Lu, we are friends after all.

You see, I may not be known for my righteousness, but at least I value heartfelt friendship, right?”

“Brother Cheng, how could you possibly lack righteousness?!” Tong Jialu chimed in: “Just yesterday you agreed to help, and today you brought 10 million to the meeting; I remember this kindness very clearly.”

Xia Yubing caught a glimpse of something unusual in her expression that Chen Cheng did not notice.

“I just want to know the real answer, why has Director Xia turned so formidable?” Chen Cheng asked back.

Tong Jialu stole a glance at Xia Yubing’s expression, “Ah!

This is all my fault!

I didn’t report it clearly to Director Xia beforehand!”

She took the blame onto herself, “Director, Brother Cheng came with Mr.

Jin’s 10 million.”

Xia Yubing once again scrutinized the young man in front of her; these days, it’s hard enough to ask someone to forgo 1000 yuan, let alone 10 million.

“It seems that Jin Baogen and his relationship is really not ordinary,” she thought to herself.

Tong Jialu placed the documents and water on the table, “Brother Cheng, calm down.

Let’s sit down and talk this slowly.”

“I always say Xiao Lu is good at handling things!” Chen Cheng observed Xia Yubing, “If it were anyone else, I would have switched banks already.

10 million, doesn’t it earn interest wherever it’s deposited!”

Tong Jialu wore a placating smile, supporting Chen Cheng by the arm, “Brother Cheng, you can’t just deposit your money in another bank!

We’re friends!”

The three of them sat down again.

Xia Yubing still had an expressionless face, while Tong Jialu displayed overflowing enthusiasm, smiling even brighter than the sakura at Yuyuantan.

“Director Xia, can you now tell me the answers to my questions earlier?” Chen Cheng asked with his legs casually crossed.

“Mr.

Chen.”

Xia Yubing took a deep breath, “I admit that when it comes to the loan amount for your company, there indeed were other factors considered.”

Chen Cheng suppressed his excitement within, feeling as if he was just a step away from knowing the whole truth.

“But it definitely isn’t because of that bird, or Mr.

Jin Baogen’s relationship,” she added.

Faced with the stubborn Xia Yubing, Chen Cheng smiled faintly.

“Xiao Lu, I think there’s no need to waste everyone’s time anymore.” Chen Cheng stood up again, “In the future, we may still have opportunities to collaborate, but they won’t be many.”

Saying this, he walked towards the door.

“Brother Cheng!”

“Brother Cheng!”

Tong Jialu yelled out several times, but failed to stop Chen Cheng’s departing footsteps.

“Cousin, why won’t you admit it?” Tong Jialu stomped her feet anxiously, looking at Xia Yubing who still sat firmly in her seat, “10 million!

Though there’s still a huge gap, if we manage this connection, wouldn’t the remaining 30 million come quickly?”

Xia Yubing’s brows were tightly locked, she looked in the direction Chen Cheng had departed, and asked, “Didn’t you see that he was trying to trap me with his words?”

“What?”

Xia Yubing got up, walked to the computer, and her fingers rapidly tapped on the keyboard.

“He is the vanguard sent by Jin Baogen,” she continued, “If I had confessed, then I would have truly been passive.”

Tong Jialu locked the door and came to the table, her eyes brimming with tears.

“Cousin, there’s a 40 million gap in your account!

If you don’t admit it, where will the money come from to plug this hole!”

She pursed her lips, “I’ll still go find Brother Cheng!”

“Don’t you dare!” Xia Yubing looked up, then returned her gaze to the computer screen, “I have my own ways to deal with him.”
