"Chairperson Chen! Something's not right!"
Just as Zhou Ping left, Xu Xue rushed in, her face filled with panic and worry.
"What's wrong? Did the sky fall?" Zhao Yan, who had just finished dealing with Zhou Ping, felt a sense of accomplishment as he propped his legs on the coffee table, carefully examining his phone.
Xu Xue anxiously ran to his side and handed him the phone. "Chairperson Chen, this time the sky really fell. The footage of us entering the hotel room together last night has been taken and posted online."
"Oh," Zhao Yan couldn't deny it. If it's posted online, it's posted online. So what?
Those keyboard warriors can only envy him for being able to sleep with Xu Xue, such an exceptional beauty.
Don't ask him why he knows this so well.
After all, he used to be one of them QAQ.
It was surprising that Xu Xue was so nervous.
Could it be that she's afraid her husband will see it?
But her husband is gay, and they're just in a marriage of convenience. No one can interfere with anyone, right?
Zhao Yan couldn't help but feel confused for a moment.
Looking at Chen Han, who was so calm, Xu Xue was a little dumbfounded. "Chairperson Chen, aren't you afraid?"
"What do I have to be afraid of? After work, I even take the initiative to pay for a hotel room to discuss work with a female subordinate. I've dedicated myself to the company with blood, sweat, and tears. Is there a problem with that?" Zhao Yan shrugged.
After all, they say a drop of sweat is worth ten drops of blood.
Xu Xue had a mournful face. "Chairperson Chen, using excuses can be grand and noble, but will your wife believe it?"
"Wife? Whose wife?" Zhao Yan blinked, taken aback, and blurted out.
Xu Xue replied, "Of course, it's your wife!"
"What! My wife!" Zhao Yan instantly jumped up from the sofa, his eyes wide open.
Damn it, Chen Han is already married!
The reason why there is no relevant information in the memories he received is not because Chen Han is single, but because Chen Han hid the relevant memories when signing the agreement?
Come to think of it, if he were in Chen Han's shoes, he would also hide the relevant memories, set restrictions, and keep his wife far away to avoid trouble.
In that case, he openly attended the banquet with Xu Xue last night, swaggered and took her to a hotel room, and even made advances on her at the company...
And judging by Xu Xue's panicked appearance, Chen Han's wife must be quite dominant.
So, isn't he setting a trap for Chen Han?
Wait a minute,
Since the one being trapped is Chen Han, why should he panic? After all, by the time Chen Han's wife returns, the exchange period will be over, and he will have already had his fun.
If he gets beaten up, it will be Chen Han who gets beaten up!
After realizing this, Zhao Yan regained his composure, calmly sat back on the sofa, and lectured Xu Xue, "Xiao Xu, don't get so flustered over trivial matters. Stay calm when faced with a problem."
"Chairperson Chen, is this still a trivial matter? Aren't you afraid of your wife anymore?" Xu Xue looked at Chen Han in shock.
Zhao Yan smiled faintly, "Afraid? I used to respect her, but she should also know her place. A real man holds power, both in the world and in the arms of a beautiful woman. I've worked hard for almost half of my life, and I won't allow myself to enjoy some pleasures?"
Bring in the musicians, let the dance continue~
Heaven belongs to God, hell belongs to Satan, enjoyment belongs to Zhao Yan, and pain belongs to Chen Han.
Everyone bears their own burdens, that's only fair.
"But Chairman Chen, what about me? Mrs. Chen definitely won't let me off." Xu Xue's eyes welled up with tears.
Zhao Yan was well prepared and chuckled as he helped her up. "Don't worry, I won't abandon you. I've already recommended you to Young Master Zhao. In a few days, you can go to his side and follow his orders."
Although he didn't directly take Chen Han's money, with a series of clever moves, he had already convinced everyone in Bin Hai that he, Zhao Yan, had a powerful background.
When the time comes, it will be easy for him to make some money and do business. He can guarantee that many people will be eager to give him their money.
Moreover, with so many connections, it would be difficult for him not to make money.
Furthermore, besides these connections, he had also set his sights on Changhong Trading. He planned to seize this opportunity and devour it. Everything was going according to his plan.
When his business expands, he will need someone to help him manage it because he still has to go to school. After all, no matter how much money he has, he can't neglect his studies, right?
There's a saying, "Learning knows no bounds..."
Well, actually, if he doesn't go to school, how can he show off in front of his classmates at school?
Xu Xue is capable of handling the management aspect. She graduated from Tokyo University in the island country and was known as a secretary at Hanjiang Group, but she was actually an assistant with strong work abilities. She's a top talent!
So this scoundrel Zhao Yan not only slept with Chen Han's golden secretary but also wants to poach her and offer her to himself under Chen Han's identity.
He has truly achieved a double freeloading.
Of course, he doesn't consider it as stealing Chen Han's limelight. He sees himself as saving Chen Han.
If he doesn't send Xu Xue away, would Chen Han's wife spare him when she comes back?
So, with this line of reasoning, sigh~ Zhao Yan even thinks that Chen Han should be grateful to him.
After all, he helped him defuse a time bomb, even though he was the one who planted it.
Of course, once the exchange period is over and Xu Xue becomes his assistant, he won't "get intimate" with her anymore because a boss cannot have personal entanglements with important subordinates. Otherwise, if there's a scandal, the company will be in trouble.
"What?!" Upon hearing Chen Han recommending her to Zhao Yan, Xu Xue was both shocked and delighted.
She admires strong individuals, so of course, she is curious about and eager to know more about Zhao Yan, who is stronger than Chen Han.
But she is shocked that Chen Han actually wants to give her away. Unbelievable! Does Chen Han have a special fetish for putting hats on people?
With that thought, she distanced herself from Chen Han and suddenly felt disgusted by his refined and easy-going demeanor.
Chairperson Chen's reputation suffered again (ಡωಡ).
Zhao Yan asked, "You don't want to?"
Xu Xue, cleverly avoiding a direct answer, replied, "I'll follow Chairman Chen's arrangements." She passed the ball back to Zhao Yan.
In fact, that's her way of agreeing.
Zhao Yan nodded and was about to speak, but his phone suddenly rang.
Xu Xue's face turned pale when she saw the caller ID. "Chairperson Chen, it's Madam's call."
"Don't panic." Zhao Yan remained calm and composed as he answered the call, "Hello, what's the matter?"
"What's the matter?! Well, Mr. Chen, do you have the audacity to ask me? No wonder you keep sending me away every now and then, saying it's good for my physical and mental well-being to travel abroad frequently! Now I finally understand that you were just using those times to fool around! Are you still claiming innocence with Xu Xue? How many women have you been with during all those times you sent me away?"
The woman on the other end of the phone unleashed a barrage of words, her voice loud and filled with anger. Even without using the speakerphone, Xu Xue could hear her.
In front of Xu Xue, Zhao Yan certainly wouldn't back down. He casually replied, "Are you done speaking? If you're done, I'll hang up. I have a meeting to attend. If you're not done, wait until I come back in a few days, and we can talk face to face. Don't interrupt my work."
He felt it was necessary to help Chairperson Chen regain his authority. You can't always indulge women!
After ending the call, Chen Han would definitely silently thank him when he saw his wife again.
"You, Chen Han! You..."
The woman on the other end was almost driven to madness, but before she could finish, Zhao Yan hung up the phone directly. He casually tossed the phone into the corner, crossed his legs, and lightly remarked, "Women who don't know their place."
The domineering Zhao Yan left Xu Xue stunned. She couldn't believe that Chairman Chen, the sufferer of severe husband dominance syndrome, would actually stand up to her.
Meanwhile, in the classroom, Chen Han inexplicably felt a chill down his spine and sneezed several times.
He rubbed his nose in confusion, "Why does it feel so cold? Is the weather turning cooler?"
Luckily, he hadn't seen the video of Zhao Yan and Xu Xue in a hotel room, or it would have been even colder.
It was normal for him not to have seen it. After all, these days businessmen didn't receive as much attention as young celebrities.
