After the car returned to Zhou Ying's apartment.
After entering the house, she immediately and skillfully turned on the advanced whole-house heating system.
Instantly, a warm breath filled the entire room, dispelling the chill from outside.
Seeing Jiang Cheng immediately using his phone to order food through the community's butler service,
Zhou Ying's lips couldn't help but curl up, her eyes full of happiness and sweetness.
Immediately after, she walked straight to Jiang Cheng's side and quickly burrowed into his embrace.
Her arms tightly hugged Jiang Cheng's waist, and her legs also wrapped around him, clinging to him tightly like an octopus.
The apartment Zhou Ying lived in was managed by a five-star hotel, and its property services were top-notch.
Not only that, the apartment was also equipped with a twenty-four-hour restaurant.
Owners could either enjoy gourmet food in the restaurant's elegant dining area at any time or easily order food through the butler service.
Seeing Zhou Ying suddenly become so clingy, Jiang Cheng smiled dotingly.
Relying on his familiarity with her usual dining preferences, he quickly ordered several staple dishes on his phone.
After closing the phone, he dotingly scratched her nose: "Hungry?"
Zhou Ying nodded obediently, circled her arms around Jiang Cheng's neck, pouted slightly, and said coquettishly.
"I originally thought about having a big meal with you outside when we got back, so I didn't eat anything on the plane. But luckily I didn't; when the plane braked urgently, the scene was so chaotic. Some people's meals were spilled all over them. It's scary just thinking about it."
Although Zhou Ying's emotions had stabilized a lot compared to when she first got off the plane,
A flicker of unmaskable tension still flashed across her face when she spoke of that thrilling scene on the plane.
Her eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a hint of lingering fear was revealed in her eyes. Her originally lively eyes also dimmed a bit, as if she had returned to that terrifying moment.
Looking at her charming face, a surge of pity rose in Jiang Cheng's heart.
He couldn't help but lean down, wanting to kiss her forehead to give her some comfort.
Seeing this, Zhou Ying hurriedly covered Jiang Cheng's mouth with both hands.
"I'm going to take a shower first."
"Sure, I'll help you, to save some time."
"No, it exhausts me every time. I want to wash by myself," Zhou Ying said coquettishly, but with a hint of a smile in her eyes.
"Oh? You ate your fill and wiped your mouth clean in the car just now, and now you want to dump me?"
Hearing this, Zhou Ying's face turned red, and she replied gigglingly: "Isn't it because I'm afraid you'll be tired? It's a long night. Wait until those dozens of oysters you ordered are delivered to replenish yourself before we talk."
"Oho, you're even making insinuations about me. Believe it or not, I'll pull down your pants and spank your butt."
Seeing Jiang Cheng's hands starting to grope around her body, Zhou Ying jumped down playfully and then jogged to the door of the master bedroom.
She left the door half-ajar and stuck her tongue out at Jiang Cheng.
Then she said playfully: "I don't believe it. Once you take off my pants, I don't believe you'll still have the mind to hit me, hmph."
After saying this, Zhou Ying closed the door with a bang and quickly locked it from the inside.
Looking at the closed door and the sound of it being locked, Jiang Cheng was stunned for a moment and stood there thinking for a while.
This... seems to make some sense.
He was somewhat powerless to refute.
Jiang Cheng shook his head helplessly.
He picked up his phone and started scrolling.
Seeing that Shen An had sent him a few pictures, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but widen his eyes.
It had to be said that Shen An was really good at causing trouble, and he was especially hardworking when he did things.
In just one day, he had actually expanded the banner-raising activity, which was originally only held at one store, to ten storefronts.
Looking at the lively and eye-catching scenes in those pictures.
Jiang Cheng's fingers tapped quickly on the phone screen, teasing: "With this kind of operation, can you break even with thirty percent of the profit?"
Shen An had transferred five million to Xingchen Investment Company.
According to the previously agreed cooperation agreement, regardless of the final income, Shen An would only receive thirty percent of the profits, and the remaining seventy percent would belong to Xingchen.
If this short-selling operation could achieve a one-hundred-percent return, then Shen An would get 1.5 million.
But if there was only a fifty-percent return, his income would only be 750,000.
Although such income would already be quite considerable to ordinary people.
But Jiang Cheng knew that this time they were facing a large enterprise like Conglomerate, which was backed by Germany, and the situation was far more complex than imagined.
Calculating conservatively, being able to reap a twenty-five-percent return from them would already be a remarkable achievement.
If calculated based on a twenty-five-percent return, Shen An's thirty-percent share of the profit would ultimately be nearly 400,000.
Moreover, one store gathered more than ten people raising banners; now with over ten stores combined, nearly a hundred people were involved.
It was no wonder Jiang Cheng asked that.
Soon, Shen An replied: "I didn't really think about that carefully, haha. I just thought I must get this matter done properly for Brother Cheng."
Hearing Shen An's flattery, Jiang Cheng smiled and sent him a thumbs-up.
Then he put down his phone and walked into the bathroom of another room.
Meanwhile, the matter of Conglomerate's cars, after the craze of raising banners yesterday and today, had already rushed onto the hot search like wildfire, causing widespread social concern.
At this moment, in the conference room of Conglomerate's headquarters located in Magic City, the atmosphere was so heavy it seemed it could solidify.
A group of middle-aged men in crisp suits were sitting around the conference table with worried faces, intensely discussing strategies to deal with this crisis.
"In total, there are now twenty-five stores in Magic City with banners being raised. Kyoto has increased from one yesterday to ten, and although other cities haven't had large-scale gatherings yet, some customers have already started spontaneous protests sporadically. If this continues, the situation is really not looking good."
