When Chen Zheng returned, Wei Zixuan had already left. The next day was the big day for Tianwei Corporation to sign its contract with Somesing Corporation. As a senior partner of Tianwei Corporation, she obviously needed to go to the company to handle many matters and make the relevant preparations.

But at this time, Xu Da had already woken up. Although he still seemed somewhat weak, his spirits appeared to be quite good.

Upon seeing Chen Zheng, he immediately chuckled. "Brother-in-law, about that matter you promised me..."

The matter he was referring to was, of course, the breathing technique.

Chen Zheng didn't hesitate this time. After all, Xu Da had done him a great service, and he was planning to send the young man to the border for some tempering. This was also Xu Da's greatest wish. So, he spent the entire night meticulously instructing the young man. Since it was his brother-in-law, he held nothing back.

"There's no use... I should just mind my own business. She doesn't look at me that way at all. When you're aiming for the wrong target, no amount of effort has any meaning!"

After this incident, Xu Da seemed to have matured a lot and saw many things more clearly. Feng Yueyue had also come to visit him. However, she always maintained an icy distance. Though Xu Da appeared boisterous and carefree, he was actually quite sensitive. After these events, he understood that there was no possibility between them.

"You should be more optimistic and look ahead. There are plenty of beautiful women at the border, and this time I've arranged for you to be placed under a beautiful female instructor!" Chen Zheng said, looking at Xu Da meaningfully. "Don't worry, this beauty will surely take good care of you. You're bound to have good days ahead!"

"Really? A beautiful female instructor?" Xu Da immediately perked up, feeling his future was now full of hope.

He had always dreamed of finding a beautiful woman with military experience. Hearing Chen Zheng's words, it seemed his wish might actually come true.

"Would I lie to you? But whether or not you can handle it is your problem!" Chen Zheng chuckled softly.

"That doesn't seem right, brother-in-law... Why do I get the feeling you're just looking forward to the show?"

"Am I?"

The night passed quickly. When the sky brightened, Chen Zheng returned to the villa to freshen up. Then, Li Donglai, the assistant from Somesing Corporation, called to invite Chen Zheng to the morning's contract signing ceremony with Tianwei Corporation. After getting ready, Chen Zheng went straight to the company.

「Downstairs at the Somesing Corporation building.」

A Land Rover slowly pulled to a stop. A middle-aged man with a slicked-back hairstyle and an extraordinary air stepped out of the car.

"Chen Zheng? What are you doing here?" a heavily made-up woman beside the man shouted when she saw him.

"Honey, you don't know this man, do you?" Wu Peng asked, looking puzzled.

Today was the big day for Tianwei Corporation's contract signing with Somesing Corporation. His wife, Sun Yan, had insisted on coming along, saying she wanted to witness a grand occasion. Several other senior executives were with them, Wei Zixuan naturally among them. She was surprised to see Chen Zheng there as well.

"Honey, you don't know this guy?" Sun Yan suddenly sneered. "This man... is the husband of that good-for-nothing Wei Zixuan!"

"Is that so?" Upon hearing this, Wu Peng seemed even more surprised. He then looked at Chen Zheng with a meaningful glance, his gaze filled with scorn and contempt.

He had heard plenty of rumors about this so-called good-for-nothing. Apparently, Wei Zixuan had come to Jiangnan to finalize her divorce from him.

In Wu Peng's eyes, there was a world of difference between himself and Chen Zheng—a vast, uncrossable chasm. There was no point in even speaking to him.

"So this is the famous husband? His clothes are so plain. The rumors were true, he's just a good-for-nothing! What's he doing here on a day like today? Surely he's not here to cause trouble? This is a huge day for our company. We can't allow anyone to cause a disturbance at such a critical moment!" Several of Tianwei Corporation's senior executives began murmuring to one another, their gazes tinged with worry.

The successful signing of the contract today was crucial to the company's future, so no one present dared to be careless.

"Why don't you stay here and handle your family matters?" Wu Peng, also worried about potential problems, turned and whispered to Wei Zixuan.

"Understood, President Wu. Rest assured, I'll take care of my own affairs!" Wei Zixuan nodded repeatedly.

Wu Peng said nothing more and immediately led the managers behind him into the corporate building. Sun Yan turned her head to look at Chen Zheng, her expression filled with endless mockery.

"Just tell me... what are you doing here?" Wei Zixuan asked, running over and shaking her head in resignation.

"I'm here to see Li Donglai," Chen Zheng said after a moment's thought.

If I told her I'm the chairman of Somesing Corporation right now, she definitely wouldn't believe me. Besides, the only reason I chose to work with Tianwei Corporation was for her. There was no other reason. Everything will become clear once the contract is signed.

"You know President Li?" Wei Zixuan asked, surprised. As the chairman's personal assistant and the company's executive president, Li Donglai holds an incredibly high position. Ordinary people would never have a chance to meet him. I can't believe Chen Zheng actually knows him!

"Don't overthink it. Let's go in together." Chen Zheng said nothing more and simply pulled Wei Zixuan inside with him.

「At the same time.」

Inside, Zhang Ming and the senior executives of Somesing Corporation were all standing respectfully. A plush red carpet had been rolled out; the welcoming ceremony was incredibly grand.

Of course, this affair wasn't for Tianwei Corporation. They weren't important enough to command such a reception. It was all, naturally, to welcome the new chairman.

Zhang Ming and Wu Peng had already met and were currently conversing off to the side.

"Zi Xuan, what are you doing? Why haven't you thrown this piece of trash out? You brought him inside with you?" Sun Yan shrieked when she saw Chen Zheng walk in.

Wu Peng also couldn't help but frown deeply. Today is a big day for the company... I can't believe she can't even handle a simple problem like this...
