Chapter 828 - Still Want to Look for Others?

Jiang Cheng looked at Reba with a bit of a daze, then immediately shifted his gaze to the phone in her hand.

Seeing this, he couldn't help but sneer, looking at Reba with a half-smile.

"Heh, what? Do you still want to go find someone else?"

Seeing Jiang Cheng's expression, Reba inexplicably felt a bit afraid and shrank her neck.

Even though Jiang Cheng had said last night that he was a very overbearing person who couldn't tolerate others.

At that time, hearing those words had indeed made her feel very touched.

However, at this moment, she had already sobered up.

Clearly, she didn't quite believe that point.

Mainly because in this circle, she had heard of too many similar situations.

The rules between them were nothing more than an exchange of resources.

Although she knew that one reason she accepted Jiang Cheng was his appearance, and the other half was his power.

While Reba herself hoped to stay by Jiang Cheng's side forever—after all, Jiang Cheng was her first man—

She also knew deep down that sooner or later, a newcomer would appear by Jiang Cheng's side to take her place.

Just thinking about Su Wan made it obvious.

Even if he treated Su Wan well, wasn't he still here spending a spring night with her?

Reba understood very well in her heart that she would one day follow in those footsteps; the only difference was just a matter of time.

Although she thought this way, Reba didn't dare to express it directly.

Instead, she parted her red lips and said with a slight pout, "How could I? You're not only young and handsome, but also so powerful in that regard. Why would I look for anyone else? Don't you agree..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Reba took the initiative to lean her head gently on Jiang Cheng's shoulder, seemingly trying to please him on purpose.

At this time, Jiang Cheng noticed that Reba's favorability value had dropped from 93 points last night back to the usual 90 points.

He looked at Reba with a touch of helplessness, sighing inwardly.

Women, as a species, are truly sensitive whether they are on or off the bed.

But as long as they aren't 'occupied' for a bit, they always love to overthink.

Jiang Cheng didn't plan to waste more words with her.

After all, they had only just met; saying more wouldn't help. He would leave the development of everything to time.

"You should rest for a bit. I have some business to go out and handle."

Seeing this, Reba curled her lips slightly and asked curiously, "Where are you going?"

"Wang Jun helped me set up an appointment with Xu Zheng and the boss of Happy Company. I'm going over to talk about investment matters."

Actually, Reba very much hoped that Jiang Cheng could take her along.

However, at the last dinner, Wang Jun had already given her the opportunity for the female lead in 'Yunnan Worm Valley' for the sake of Jiang Cheng.

On top of that, Jiang Cheng had also promised to invest in several of her series.

Therefore, she felt she couldn't appear too greedy.

Upon hearing this, Reba nodded gently.

Then she said obediently, "Then I'll sleep for a while longer."

Her voice revealed a hint of laziness and satisfaction.

Seeing Reba staring at him changing clothes with infatuated eyes, the dissatisfaction in Jiang Cheng's heart lessened slightly.

With the corners of his mouth slightly raised, he asked softly, "Eat something before you sleep? I've already had people prepare it. I'll have them bring it in for you later?"

Normally, Reba would definitely shake her head and insist on going out to eat.

However, at this moment, recalling the passionate lingering from last night, she couldn't help but feel a bit shy.

Plus, Jiang Cheng was about to leave; facing everyone alone would be quite embarrassing.

Seeing Jiang Cheng being so considerate, Reba's heart was full of joy. She nodded happily and said, "Thank you, Chairman Jiang. You are truly very thoughtful and meticulous."

...At this time at the Diaoyutai State Guesthouse Hotel, Wang Jun and Wang Lei had already arrived at the private room.

Seeing the dark circles under Wang Lei's eyes, Wang Jun said with some dissatisfaction, "The Company has a lot of things going on lately; play less recently."

Hearing this, Wang Lei immediately retorted, "Big brother, I didn't play last night! These past two days I've been handling the bank loan matters. It's annoying as hell; I'm in no mood to play at all."

Wang Jun followed up by saying, "We two brothers have been prominent for decades. I didn't expect that because of that idiot Feng Gan, our situation would become so difficult."

Wang Lei said with deep emotion, "In the past, Xu Zheng had to bow and scrape when he saw us. Not like now, where it's quite a struggle just to get him here."

While they were talking, they saw a figure slowly pacing in from outside the door; this person was exactly Xu Zheng.

His leisurely and self-satisfied appearance was very much an eyesore in the eyes of the Wang Brothers.

"Good afternoon, Mr. Wangs!"

As soon as Xu Zheng entered the door, Wang Jun and Wang Lei, who were originally sitting, immediately sprang up as if they had springs under their butts, then quickly stepped forward to greet him.

"Oh my, Xu Zheng, it's been a long time! You've been quite busy lately, right?" Wang Jun asked with a face full of smiles.

Hearing this, Xu Zheng quickly waved his hand and said, "It's alright. Actually, I'm not particularly busy; I've just been looking for some new avenues."

"Oh? Is that so? Haha, then that's quite a coincidence! We two brothers came here today specifically wanting to introduce a few good paths to you!" Wang Lei chimed in from the side.

Xu Zheng had previously created several blockbuster movies for the Wang Brothers' Company, so it could be said he had once rendered great service.

For example, 'Crazy Stone' and 'Crazy Racer,' which he starred in, were produced by the Wang Brothers' Company.

However, as time went by, Xu Zheng later decided to embark on the path of a director alone.

Since then, the films he directed no longer had any connection with the Wang Brothers.

Not only that, but this situation indirectly led to the formation of a competitive relationship between them.

Although they all maintained a primarily friendly attitude on the surface, in reality, their relationship was no longer what it used to be.

At this moment, Xu Zheng also didn't believe that the Wang Brothers would sincerely take the initiative to introduce business to him.

But out of necessary etiquette and superficial effort, he still put on a surprised expression and responded, "Are you serious, Mr. Wang? Then I really must thank you!"

"Sigh, what's our relationship? There's no need to be so polite! I heard your 'Dying to Survive' is in the preparation stage. I happen to have someone here who is particularly interested in this subject matter."

Hearing this, Xu Zheng's heart stirred, but he didn't show it on his face. Instead, his eyes darted around as he smiled and replied.

"Oh? So that's how it is! However, the investment scale this time isn't actually that large, and currently, some people have already expressed interest in investing."

Since the success of movies like 'Lost on Journey,' Xu Zheng had become a box office guarantee over the past two years.

Although the subject matter he chose this time was relatively niche and the possibility of becoming a blockbuster wasn't very high, for investment, it wasn't too big of a problem.

Therefore, he didn't want to use this opportunity to accept the Wang Brothers' kindness.

After all, since he could solve these matters himself, why should he owe them a favor for no reason?

One must know that favors are not free; they need to be repaid in the future.

And he had always disliked owing others too much, especially in such an unnecessary situation.

"Xu Zheng, the person I'm going to introduce to you is no ordinary figure. Let me tell you, since I specifically came to pull strings for you, I naturally wouldn't just find any random person to brush you off..."

Before Wang Jun could finish his sentence, he saw the big boss behind Happy Company leading Shen Teng inside.

Seeing the newcomers, the three people in the room hurried to stand up and exchanged pleasantries for a while.

Back in the day, compared to large enterprises like Huayi, the gap for Happy Company was more than just a little bit.

However, just in 2015, a movie titled 'Goodbye Mr. Loser' emerged out of nowhere.

The investment for this film was only a mere thirty-some million, but in the end, it created a staggering box office record of over 1.4 billion!

This battle was fought beautifully, and Happy Company earned a fortune as well as both fame and fortune because of it.
