Chapter 672: Chapter 672

Zhong Qiaohui, Fu Yubo, and Sister Yao’s flight arrived at Rio de Janeiro’s airport in the evening.

The three of them stood by the roadside, hailing a taxi.

Brazilians, the locals, hardly spoke English, let alone Chinese. They had taken note of the hotel information provided by Gu Nuan in English, and when they asked several drivers in English, all of them shook their heads, indicating they didn’t know.

At that point, the three of them were getting quite anxious.

Luckily, they had made a call to Gu Nuan right after disembarking. Zhan Dapeng drove a local vehicle to the airport to pick them up.

Zhong Qiaohui ran straight to Zhan Dapeng, shouting, "Minister Zhan, you’re our knight in shining armor."

As can be seen, the language barrier made this Miss Zhong feel quite handicapped.

Sister Yao and Fu Yubo walked up to Zhan Dapeng’s car and respectfully called out, "Minister Zhan."

From behind the rolled-down car window, Zhan Dapeng looked over the three of them with a beaming smile, "It seems that in my absence, you all have been doing quite well in the company—looking good."

When it came to the situation at the company, the three of them were somewhat lost for words.

The current situation at Changda was about maintaining stability amid external attacks, so there was definitely no question of firing anyone, but as for bonuses and such, the company was at a life-or-death moment—where would the money come from to reward employees excessively?

It’s inevitable that people are uneasy; now it’s not about the company firing someone but about some people starting to think about leaving. Therefore, head-hunting firms looking to poach Changda’s technical backbone are everywhere.

The three people standing in front of Zhan Dapeng had all been tempted more or less by external offers during this period.

Zhong Qiaohui cleverly opened the car door, and teasingly said to Zhan Dapeng, "Minister Zhan, with you here, how could we bear to leave—no amount of money can compare to your charm."

With her calling him "Daddy", Zhan Dapeng got goosebumps. He never knew Miss Zhong had this other side to her. Turning back to look at Zhong Qiaohui’s face, he said, "Are you sure it’s because of me, not because of Gu Nuan?"

"What, Gu Nuan is a woman; if I’m staying at Changda, it’s definitely for a man. A man like Minister Zhan who has immense charm is my true love."

Zhong Qiaohui’s flattering talk had Sister Yao and Fu Yubo smiling and watching the fun as they took their seats in the back of the car.

With cars behind honking, Zhan Dapeng could only tell them to buckle up and started driving. Then he spat toward the cooing Zhong Qiaohui, saying, "Don’t use me as your target. I’m telling you, ask my people what would happen if you don’t believe me?"

Hearing their boss’s words, Sister Yao suddenly looked more serious.

Zhong Qiaohui looked back and saw the expression on Sister Yao’s face, somewhat shocked. What’s going on? Wasn’t it said that Zhan Dapeng is a good guy? To see Sister Yao with such a look...

Sister Yao felt guilty, thinking about the stuff she had done behind her boss’s back, not known to anyone. Fortunately, after Zhan Dapeng said that, he didn’t continue.

The car drove all the way to a five-star hotel.

Seeing the nice accommodations, Zhong Qiaohui’s mood instantly brightened, and she candidly said, "The only reason I want to work for a big company is that if there isn’t a good place to sleep and shower while traveling, it’s impossible to start working." Chapters fırst released on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢•𝓷𝓮𝓽

Deep down, she’s still a young lady. Seizing the opportunity, Zhan Dapeng retorted, "Oh, wasn’t it you who said back in the day, willing to struggle with your grandfather and eat sweet potatoes—"

Zhong Qiaohui got a huge shock; she had only ever discussed this with Gu Nuan. Gu Nuan didn’t seem like the type to blabbermouth—so had she spoken about it to Zhan Dapeng? Was it spread all around?
