Chapter Fifty-Three: Blind Dog's Eye

  Everyone makes progress after learning, no one can avoid saying wrong things or offending people for their whole life, unless that person is mute.

  Chu Jingyan had always thought that his bad habit of being unreasonable and making others think he was right just by raising his voice was innate.

  It's all because of one's own unreliable parents, no wonder oneself is like this.

  But now it seems that Chu Jingyan feels like he has met a kindred spirit, and the words of this seemingly majestic president in front of him are also laced with a hint of narcissism and a mocking tone that makes one want to punch him.

  To put it bluntly, every sentence is filled with intense malice.

  People often say that small tolerance leads to chaos in big plans, but different people have very different definitions of "tolerance". In Chu Jingyan's view, Chen Shuo's "tolerance" is equivalent to self-mutilation, as he can tolerate losses of hundreds of millions of funds just to overthrow the opposing voices within the group and against himself.

  But now it seems that this chairman is quite enjoying himself and thinks it's well worth it.

  Huang Dongzheng has fallen, and a new director is about to join. What kind of change will this bring? Such a profound question doesn't need Chu Jingyan's consideration. For him, it's more practical to think about how to establish himself in the new entertainment company rather than thinking about these unrelated issues.

  Chen Shuo looked at Chu Jingyan and said, "Are you very curious about what kind of family that household is?"

  "You won't say it and I definitely won't ask," said Chu Jingyan.

  "I feel like talking today."

  "So you say."

  "Go and pour a cup of clear tea for the president."

  Chu Jing spoke with a flattering tone, taking out the tea leaves from the cabinet, while secretly scolding the cheap person for being pretentious and disrespectful to her elders, yet still wearing a fawning smile on her face.

  For the boss who pays your salary, shouldn't you be cursing him for having a son with no anus behind his back and wishing to be his son when facing him? Chu Jingyan felt that he had carried out this behavior very thoroughly.

  "Go-yang is not comparable to Seoul, but it's also considered a big city in Korea. There are no international companies here, but there are still many landowners. In recent years, they invested in real estate and some with good vision started speculating in stocks, standing out and leading a large group of people to march into Seoul. The Li family is one of the most prominent among them."

  "We're no longer short of money, and in Goyang, we're considered a prestigious family. Of course, I'm not willing to spend my whole life just being a prestigious family in Goyang. The land of Gangnam, Seoul has a magical charm for most people."

  "I had already boarded the line very early on, but I didn't have a suitable opportunity for a long time, so I thought about waiting, and as I waited, I waited until Huang Dongzheng couldn't wait to reveal his sharp edges."

  "People who are too showy often die young. In this era, everyone is so superficial and impulsive. People like Ben Hua, who are mature and introverted, and do things steadily, are rare."

  "Chairman, we've gone off topic." Chu Jingyan reminded.

  "It was almost finished anyway, what's the point of running away? Chen Shuo looked at Chu Jingyan with great dissatisfaction and continued, "So curious, wait until next month's board meeting, come and see for yourself."

  Are you kidding me? Did I force you to say these things?

  Chu Jing suddenly felt that in this world, whoever has money is the big boss, and even shamelessness can be shameless to such an extent. It seems that he himself still has a long way to go to reach this state.

  Chen Shuo took a sip of tea and let out a breath before saying: "That prosecutor has a daughter, she's very pretty."

  Chu Jing nodded and waited for Chen Shuo's next words.

  After a long time, Chu Jing didn't hear Chen Shuo's second sentence and raised his head to ask: "So?"

  Chen Shuo continued: "This time, the incident involving Huang Dongzheng has had a significant impact on the group's reputation. However, the official side has made many efforts to deal with it. The prosecutor in charge of the case has gained great merit and also obtained many benefits. The case involves billions of funds, and I think that when Mr. Li becomes the chairman of the board, the prosecutor's position will also be promoted."

  Chen Shuo gazed out the window at the densely packed skyscrapers and laughed, saying: "How many people want to get into this city? Sometimes opportunities are really a bitch's bastard."

  Chu Jing interrupted Chen Shuo's words and said cautiously: "President, you just mentioned that the prosecutor has a very beautiful daughter."

  "Did I say something?" Chen Shuo was puzzled.

  "You said so." Chu Jing's tone was firm.

  "Look at you, I've told you so much about the truth of life, but you only remember a pretty girl, Jing Yan. I can understand the mindset of young people, but you also don't know what's called priority."

  Chu Jingyan felt that he didn't need to say anything more.

  No longer sarcastic, Chen Shuo said: "After a while, the prosecutor who came to Seoul for a job will stay in a certain office at the procuratorate without surprise. His family will naturally follow."

  "So?"

  "That young lady is very interested in performing on stage, you can entertain her then." Chen Shuo said.

  "Take her around the studio, visit the company, or go play at the TV station, all are possible."

  "Why me?" Chu Jingyan was very puzzled.

  Chen Shuo looked at Chu Jingyan with a profound gaze and said, "Jingyan, I originally thought you were an unremarkable stone, but Ya La's behavior that day told me that one cannot judge a person by appearance."

  "It's not obvious that you're still quite attractive to young girls, of course, don't repeat what happened with Yara on her, the cold eyes from Director Gao are already enough for me to bear, if we add the prosecutor's hostility, the president's days will be very difficult."

  After a pause, Chen Shuo's tone became quite ambiguous: "However, it is still necessary to properly handle the relationship. Once you've settled with their children, you'll have settled with their parents."

  Chu Jing exclaimed in horror: "You want me to sell my body?"

  "Don't try to be clever and get an advantage."

  "I don't have."

  "What the president says is true, then it's true."

  Chu Jing said: "The king of Chu has no match in the world."

  Gao Yalan's actions that day were a mystery to many, but people like Chen Shuo and Qi Qingrong liked to bring it up from time to time to tease Chu Jingyan. Now that he had become the object of flattery for cooperation with the president, Chu Jingyan suddenly felt a sense of desolation and despair.

  Does being handsome mean you have to be treated as a freeloader? Does being handsome mean you have to accompany women to eat, go shopping and watch movies?

  If it weren't for your compliment on my good looks, Chu Jingyan said he would definitely rush with this group of people.

  Putting on his jacket again, Chen Shuo sat down on the sofa and asked: "How's the new company?"

  "I'm trying to adapt." Chu Jingyan replied.

  "Not used to it?"

  "It's okay."

  Chen Shuo smiled and said, "It's just not used to it, what's the matter with whether it works or not? If I were in my original position, doing well, and suddenly someone took over, then went to a strange environment, I wouldn't say anything about being unhappy, but your expression really doesn't hide it at all."

  Chu Jing blinked her eyes.

  "Don't sell cute." Chen Shuo lit a cigarette.

  "I don't have it," Chu Jing argued.

  Chen Shuo took a sip of tea and said, "A new company has just started, it's like a big production of a costume drama, can't say how much money is involved but even a mosquito leg is meat, who knows what will happen in the future, and the company is a diversified thing, what to use it for, still depends on the people inside the company."

  Chu Jing raised an eyebrow, this sentence had a bit of flavor.

  "Alright, there's nothing else, I believe you can handle it well."

  Chen Shuo began to drive away the guests.

  .........

  ........

  The scorching sunlight of late July in Seoul was enough to make one's eyes ache, but the air-conditioned coffee shop made people feel comfortable and relaxed. As he carefully examined the small bill in his hand, Chu Jingyan couldn't help but sigh as he looked at the little fat woman sitting across from him.

  The little fatty sucked on her straw and asked in confusion: "What's there to sigh about when you're so happy?"

  "I'm getting sentimental," Chu Jingyan said very seriously, "We Mei Ying are actually going to become artists, thinking back to the past, I couldn't help but feel a poetic feeling rising from the bottom of my heart."

  "Are you going to compose poetry?" The little fat woman was surprised.

  "I'm not at that level."

  "I see."

  Chu Jingyan put the small note into his pocket and said, "Originally, I still had some doubts, but since the facts are in front of me, I have no choice but to believe it. I will go to the stage."

  "Really?"

  "Well, I've heard that TV stations are full of artistes and beauties. This lifetime, I haven't been to such a place, so it's only natural to go and broaden my horizons. After all, I'm now also a man who has plunged into the great entertainment industry."

  Xiao Feipo said she really couldn't understand Chu Jingyan's spiritual realm.

  "By the way, why didn't Taeyeon come with you today?" Chu Jingyan asked.

  "Taeyeon?" The chubby girl put down her drink and said, "She seems to be under a lot of stress lately. Before our comeback, the company will give us a few days off as usual for some last-minute freedom, but she just got back from Jeju Island yesterday and today she's already back in the practice room practicing non-stop. Being the leader is really tough."

  "The premise of setting an example is that you have to do well enough." Chu Jingyan said with great satisfaction, "Tae-hyun's behavior has fully explained one thing to you, a person's innate sense of responsibility cannot be imitated."

  "What does it mean?"

  "Don't you understand yet?" Chu Jingyan glanced at the little fatty and said, "Someone like you who can't even speak clearly, and as soon as they open their mouth, people will think they need to be fed by their parents, how can they possibly become a team leader?"

  The little fatty mumbled: "Hiding behind others isn't quite safe."

  "That's also true."

  Looking at Chu Jingyan, Xiao Feipo smiled knowingly and asked: "Chu Jingyan, do you have a special feeling for Tai Yan?"

  "How did you know?" Chu Jingyan couldn't believe that Tiffany could see through anything.

  "A woman's sixth sense."

  "Do you have this kind of thing?" Chu Jingyan was very surprised.

  "Of course they do." The little fat woman said matter-of-factly, "All women do."

  "Are you a woman?" Chu Jingyan was shocked.

  "Don't change the subject." Little fatty had already been trained to be quite tolerant of Chu Jingyan's verbal blows.

  Chu Jing said with a smile: "I really didn't expect this."

  "Are you blind?"

  "Fat woman?"

  "What's the point?"

  Chu Jing took a deep breath and said: "Originally I thought you were either pure and kind, or at least innocent, but now it seems I was wrong."

  "What's wrong."

  "I must have been blind in both eyes to think you were a kind-hearted and innocent little pure soul."
