Huang Zhaozhong felt deeply grateful.

When he embarked on this risky move, he always thought he and Chen Xiao would inevitably fall out.

But surprisingly, fate is indeed unpredictable.

Not only did Chen Xiao not fall out with him, but he actually came to help him.

Huang Zhaozhong was a mature man.

He understood well enough that no one would be good to another person without a reason.

If someone treats him well, it undoubtedly means he is still of use.

Previously, aside from maybe being able to help a little with the case, which is now solved, Huang Zhaozhong pondered and realized, aside from his Zhaolitong, he didn’t see any other value he had in front of Chen Xiao!

Then, looking at the confrontation between Chen Xiao and Wan Yide.

Though the two didn’t have an open conflict, there was a secret struggle.

As for Chen Xiao mentioning the recording and then analyzing and deducing in person.

Huang Zhaozhong didn’t believe Chen Xiao was suddenly realizing the recording matter only now!

So after a brief contemplation, Huang Zhaozhong reached a conclusion in his heart.

His Zhaolitong and De Yitong were in the same business!

And he clearly sensed that Chen Xiao didn’t intend to do anything to Wan Yide.

Thus, Chen Xiao’s target was his Zhaolitong and Wan Yide’s De Yitong!

Simply put, it was the offline mobile phone sales channel!

All at once, Huang Zhaozhong’s thoughts brightened.

The entire situation made him feel at ease at this moment!

He wasn’t afraid of being useful to Chen Xiao in some way.

He just feared being worthless in front of Chen Xiao!

Because when he rushed to Chen Xiao, Chen Xiao had said characters like Shen Shuming were also invited for dinner tonight!

Chen Xiao put off even someone like Shen Shuming for his sake, so Huang Zhaozhong felt he needed to seize this opportunity!

Once aboard Chen Xiao’s ship, who knows, he might even have a chance in the real estate business over in Shencheng City!

Such is human nature.

Having just escaped the fate of being divided up, Huang Zhaozhong had already begun pondering the promising future.

As for Wan Yide, he had long lost his temper.

After filling a glass with wine for Chen Xiao, he smilingly asked:

"President Chen, may I toast to you?"

This was a type of probing.

If Chen Xiao drank this glass, it would mean there was no conflict between them.

Chen Xiao wouldn’t take action against him because of Huang Zhaozhong.

As for Zhaolitong’s market, it was far inferior to the listed De Yitong!

Chen Xiao caught the meaning in Wan Yide’s eyes and smilingly raised his glass.

Both drank it all in one go.

Wan Yide exhaled a breath of relief, and at this moment Hou Yuan couldn’t help but call out, "Brother De."

Wan Yide immediately shot him a fierce glare, leaving Hou Yuan awkwardly frozen in place.

Seeing this, Chen Xiao just smiled silently.

The brotherhood between these few was even more fragile than plastic, all about interest.

After drinking this glass of wine, Wan Yide smilingly picked up his phone: "President Chen, shall we exchange contact information?"

"Sure, who knows, we might have business interactions in the future."

Chen Xiao already started enlightening Wan Yide and Huang Zhaozhong, and both of them understood and nodded.

After exchanging contact information, Chen Xiao then said:

"Alright, I came here just to meet everyone. Now that I have Boss Wan’s number, I have friends over there, so I’ll leave first."

Wan Yide and Huang Zhaozhong immediately stood up, the latter even saying:

"President Chen, let me escort you over."

Chen Xiao nodded, and the two then left the private room together.

After they left, unable to hold back, Hou Yuan asked, "Brother De, what does this mean? Weren’t we here to...?"

Before Hou Yuan could finish, Wan Yide sternly replied:

"Can’t you see the situation clearly? Do you still think Ah Zhong is the same as before? He’s found himself a backer now!"

"But that Chen Xiao isn’t from our Hai City, he’s just a criminal investigation consultant for the Dongzhou Police. Brother De, can he influence your De Yitong’s listing?"

"Think about it yourself, isn’t it obvious? And do you really think Chen Xiao is only that capable? Don’t you know Deep City’s Dragon Cauldron? And that he dares to snatch food from the jaws of Hai City’s Celestial Valley, isn’t that frightening enough?"

After speaking, Wan Yide, fearing Hou Yuan would continue to babble, directly reminded:

"Alright, remember, from today on, we and Ah Zhong are still good brothers, tight buddies, understand?!"

Inside the private room, the atmosphere grew awkward.

But in the hallway outside, with great excitement, Huang Zhaozhong said to Chen Xiao:

"Mr. Chen, thank you for your assistance!"

Chen Xiao smiled and shook his head: "Originally, you and I weren’t at this level of relationship, but now that we are, we’re on the same team from now on."

Huang Zhaozhong nodded understandingly: "Rest assured, I understand your intentions. But there is one thing I’m not quite clear about, is Mr. Chen planning to start a mobile business?"

"President Huang, I’m not surprised you could tell my small intentions."

"How could I compare to you, Mr. Chen! You only said a few words just now, and Wan Yide didn’t dare utter a single word!"

Chen Xiao, however, didn’t feel as optimistic with Huang Zhaozhong, calmly said:

"We’re both old foxes here, playing Liaozhai isn’t interesting. You understand me, Wan Yide understands me, let’s keep in touch about any follow-up matters."

Huang Zhaozhong heavily replied, "I understand, honestly, having the opportunity to follow you, Mr. Chen, might be the best choice I’ve made in my life. Of course, I still owe an apology to you and your wife for any trouble I caused previously!"

"Alright, you head back. I’m sure Wan Yide and the others won’t team up against you again."

Huang Zhaozhong didn’t say much more and didn’t want to disrupt Chen Xiao’s gathering with friends.

Once Huang Zhaozhong left, Chen Xiao returned to his private room.

Black Cat, upon seeing him return, eagerly asked, "Brother Chen Xiao, how did your talk go? Do you want me to use some means to investigate those people thoroughly?"

"We had a good talk, and as for investigating, let’s wait until we know more about them. But since you mention this, are you planning to stay a while longer?" Chen Xiao asked with a smile.

Black Cat immediately put on a look of grievance, "So even Brother Chen Xiao doesn’t welcome me?"

Chen Xiao quickly explained, "No, no, I’m very happy to have you here!"

Saying this, Chen Xiao looked at Xiaoji, squinting, "What? Does this mean you don’t welcome Black Cat?"

"Not at all, I just think that after this, I still have to follow you, Brother Chen, to do great things. Where is the time..."

Chen Xiao was left speechless.

He thought to himself how this guy had none of his cousin Knife Man’s style when it came to women?

The girl obviously wants to stay around longer.

Why does she want to stay? Clearly, she thinks you, Xiaoji, are not too bad!

Yet you seem to have your head full of doing great things all the time?

What great things?

Your cousin Knife Man is almost exhausted, and you’re still wet behind the ears!

Besides, does Dong’an Company lack talent?

It lacks talents like Black Cat!

Without giving Xiaoji a chance to speak further, Chen Xiao decisively stated: "Next, Xiaoji, you have no other tasks, just accompany Black Cat to tour the great mountains and beautiful rivers of our homeland, understood?"
