chapter 34 The hidden dragon is in the abyss and the world is still undecided

Ava Liu almost fainted from anger. This guy actually dared to slap her butt in front of others! "Allen Chen, don't be too… Ah!" "What am I being too?" Allen Chen smacked her again, and she immediately bounced up, feeling slightly startled. This woman was something! She's in her thirties and still so bouncy. Ava Liu stared at him. "If you ever dare to touch me again, I..." "What?" Allen Chen took out his phone and smiled at her. Ava Liu immediately lost her temper and said softly, "I'm sorry, it was my fault just now. You're in charge, and I'm here to assist. I'll follow your lead." "That's more like it," Allen Chen grinned. "Brother Joe, I'm sorry to bother you." "Hey, no problem," Joe Wang smiled knowingly, turned around and called the hotel and booked a single room! Watching him open the hotel room, Ava Liu asked, "Mr. Wang, which room is mine?" "It's the same one," Joe Wang said. "What? Just one room?" "I'm sorry, Miss Liu, there’s an International Exhibition to be held recently, and all the good hotels within the Bin City Third Ring Road have been fully booked," Joe Wang said with a helpless expression. "I had to use my connections to secure this room." "Sorry for the inconvenience. Let's just share the room for now, okay? Brother Allen, I'm sorry." "It's okay. We’re here for business, not for pleasure. We'll tough it out. Having one room is pretty good," Allen Chen said with a smile. "Right, Miss Liu?" "I…" Ava Liu was so angry that she wanted to stamp her feet. This annoying guy actually silenced her with the words she had said before. "But we're a man and a woman sharing a room, which isn't very convenient." "What's not convenient?" Allen Chen smiled and said, "In the worst case, I'll sleep on the couch, and you can sleep on the bed." "Well..." "Okay, Miss Liu, hurry up and get ready. We'll go to the Tiandi Bath Center right away," Allen Chen interrupted her. They departed in the morning, and now the sun was setting, casting a dusky hue over the streets. Neon lights of all kinds were lighting up, and inside the transparent glass walls of the Tiandi Pool Bath, several young ladies dressed sexyly, showing off their long legs. "Welcome!" A lady in a qipao swayed her waist and approached them, asking with a smile, "Hello, have you made a reservation?" "We have a 'Tian 368' reservation," Allen Chen said. Upon hearing "Tian," the lady's smile became even more enchanting, and her voice was as soft as cotton candy, sweet and alluring. "Of course, dear guests. Please follow me." "Lead the way, please." "You're too kind," the qipao lady walked ahead, swaying her hips more than before, almost making their eyes go astray. Ava Liu gritted her teeth and said, "You’re here to have fun, why do you want me to come too?" "Do you think I'm here for fun?" Allen Chen chuckled. Ava Liu sneered, "Isn't it?" "Are you silly? The cost of spending money here is hundreds of thousands or even millions. Do you think I have so much money? Will the company reimburse me?" Allen Chen said amusedly. Ava Liu was stunned. "Then why are you here?" "Of course, I'm here to meet Mr. Cui from Tiantong Group to discuss cooperation," Allen Chen smiled slightly. Ava Liu was surprised. "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I didn't see you contact Mr. Cui?" "I work in my way. If I let everyone know what I'm up to, do you think I can get things done?" Allen Chen glanced at her. Ava Liu didn't say anything, but she couldn't help but look at Allen Chen with a higher regard. No wonder this guy became the top seller as soon as he joined! He really knew how to handle things. And he could hide it well too! If she hadn't asked earlier, she'd still think Allen Chen was here for leisure. "Dear guests, the private room is here," the qipao lady said with a smile. "Is there anything else I can assist you with?" "Thank you. We'll call you later," Allen Chen smiled. The qipao lady's eyes sparkled, and she discreetly handed him a business card. "Dear guest, I wish you a pleasant stay." "Okay," Allen Chen nodded, pushed open the private room door, and walked in. Inside the private room, there were only two people. One was a middle-aged man with a balding head, dressed in a rough linen robe. He didn't drink alcohol but preferred tea, making a sipping sound. The other was a man in his early thirties, sporting a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He had applied concealer on his face, giving him a clean and somewhat refined appearance. However, when he picked up his wine glass, he raised his pinky finger, giving off a rather effeminate vibe! "Ah, you're here," the man in the linen robe turned his head and smiled. "Come in." "Who are these two?" the effeminate man with glasses asked suspiciously. Allen Chen smiled and said, "Sales department of Ruian Group, Allen Chen." "I'm the sales manager, Ava Liu," Ava Liu smiled flirtatiously. "Mr. Cui, I've heard so much about your heroic deeds from our CEO, and now I see that you're truly a paragon of manhood." "Hahaha!" Mr. Cui laughed heartily while sneakily assessing her figure with his eyes. "Ms. Liu, Mr. Dong often mentioned you to me, and it's clear that you are not only beautiful but also possess a great temperament. Your mouth is quite something too!" "Mr. Cui, thank you for your praise," Ava Liu smiled. The face of the effeminate man on the side changed slightly and said, "Are you from Ruian Group?" "Mr. Cui, we're competitors, so your arrangement today confuses me." "Is our Wansheng Group offer not attractive enough for you?" "Manager Du, don't be angry. I wanted both sides to meet in person to settle this matter face-to-face," Mr. Cui said with a smile. "It's for transparency, so no one can say I accepted any benefits." "I see," Manager Du smiled, looked at Allen Chen and said, "Mr. Chen, let me be honest. We have a big backer supporting us, and currently, we're prioritizing cooperation without expecting any returns." "In terms of conditions, you don't have any advantages.” "I understand," Allen Chen nodded. Before he came, he had already researched both Tiantong and Wansheng Group. Wansheng Group seemed to have received a significant influx of capital recently, and they were rapidly expanding in various industries. In simple terms, they're spending money aggressively to establish their presence and partnerships. They might not be making profits right now, but once they reach a certain scale, they can quickly recover and gain a significant share of the market. So, at this stage, they are going all out and investing heavily! Most people would have a tough time competing with them. Manager Du sneered, "Since you know you can't offer better conditions than our Wansheng Group, why don't you leave now?" "Things are unpredictable, and anyone can be a dark horse," Allen Chen said with a smile. Manager Du chuckled, "Indeed, you are a dark horse, but unfortunately, this horse is dead!" "In a situation of absolute advantage, any struggle is futile." "If I were you, I'd leave now. It's better than embarrassing yourself, isn't it, my dear?" This guy's eyes glanced at Ava Liu's chest several times.
