I just got divorced, and the female CEO is already clinging to me.

Chapter 63 Shen Feng, the Protector of His Own

Ye Cheng's words were not only a promise, but also the confidence of a strong person.

For a moment, Shen Qingrou was lost, wondering who she should choose between him and him.

But she nipped the idea in the bud as soon as it took hold.

No one could replace her feelings for him.

At least Ye Cheng can't replace him now.

Of course, Ye Cheng never intended to replace anyone.

He protected Shen Qingrou only because of a promise.

It's not accurate to say he particularly liked Shen Qingrou.

Although Shen Qingrou is very beautiful and is the most beautiful woman in Hedong City.

However, when Ye Cheng chooses a partner, beauty is only a bonus, not the deciding factor; he does not judge people by their appearance.

If Liu Yue hadn't divorced him and had stayed by his side, he would have considered her his wife for life.

Unfortunately, Liu Yue only lasted three years before she couldn't stand the loneliness and was easily lured in by others.

Perhaps Shen Qingrou couldn't feel Ye Cheng's burning love, which is why she couldn't forget him.

After breakfast, Shen Qingrou prepared to go to work, and Ye Cheng, her bodyguard, voluntarily asked to take her along as well.

"Now that your stepmother has taken action, I will stay by your side every step of the way."

Shen Qingrou didn't want Ye Cheng to take the risk: "Do you mean you'll follow me into the women's restroom?"

Ye Cheng said seriously, "I will keep watch outside."

If you don't let me come along, I'll find my own way.

Helpless, Shen Qingrou had no choice but to drive Ye Cheng away.

As soon as I arrived at the group headquarters, Shen Qianfeng called: "Have you come to work yet?"

Shen Qingrou replied crisply, "Get to the point."

"Did you get into a fight last night?"

Shen Qingrou didn't hide anything: "Chen Zhaoyi put up a bet of 100 million yuan with the Qingyuan Mountain project, wanting to race against me."

I won, but they refused to pay, so a conflict broke out.

Shen Qianfeng asked in confusion, "You made a bet with Chen Zhaoyi, what does Guan Yinxiang have to do with it? How did you manage to injure her so badly?"

Shen Qingrou said, "I beat Chen Zhaoyi, and she was upset, so she cursed me to die and said I had no mother. I can tolerate that!"

Shen Qianfeng suddenly realized: "Then she really deserves to be hit."

Are you hurt?"

This answer surprised Shen Qingrou: "How could someone as stupid as a pig hurt me?"

Shen Qianfeng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "They're a group of people, I was worried you'd get taken advantage of."

"If they hurt my daughter, I'll make them pay!"

Shen Qingrou could sense Shen Qianfeng's protectiveness towards her: "Did someone come to you to complain?"

Shen Qianfeng said nonchalantly, "As long as you don't suffer any losses, let those people do whatever they want."

If they hurt my daughter, I will make them pay!

Did Chen Zhaoyi renege on that 100 million yuan?

Shen Qingrou said sternly, "He dares!"

Shen Qianfeng laughed: "As expected of my daughter, but I have to remind you, stay away from these shady friends, or you'll be the one who suffers."

Shen Qingrou, quite unusually, accepted Shen Qianfeng's suggestion: "Don't worry, I've already left their circle."

I'm married now, so it's time to tone down my personality and pay attention to my image.

Shen Qingrou's sudden change of attitude left Shen Qianfeng at a loss: "Why does it feel like my daughter has suddenly grown up?"

"Okay, if there's nothing else, I'm hanging up."

I know I've caused you trouble this time..."

“It’s nothing, it’s not a problem,” Shen Qianfeng interrupted his daughter. “They provoked us first. If you don’t respond, they’ll think the Shen family is easy to bully.”

You did a great job this time.

Outside, you represent the Shen family, and the Shen family will not back down to anyone!

"That's what a good father should be like," Shen Qingrou hummed in agreement and hung up the phone.

Ye Cheng noticed that her eyes were already red.

After a moment of silence, just as Shen Qingrou was about to go to the bathroom to wash her face and hide her feelings, her phone suddenly rang again.

She took out her phone and saw that it was a call from Xu Menghao's secretary.

Shen Qingrou quickly answered the phone: "Hello, Secretary Wei, what's the matter?"

Secretary Wei said, "I wonder if President Shen has time to come to the district head's office this morning."

Shen Qingrou was slightly taken aback: "Is it about discussing the development of Qingyuan Mountain?"

Secretary Wei didn't say it explicitly: "You'll know when you get here. I've already notified the Cheng Group, and the people they sent have probably already arrived."

Shen Qingrou quickly replied, "Okay, I'll be right there."

After hanging up the phone, Shen Qingrou explained the situation to Ye Cheng and asked, "Who do you think the Cheng Group will send?"

Ye Cheng said, "It doesn't matter who we send. Sending them over is just for show. Be prepared, and this matter will be decided today."

Shen Qingrou had the same feeling. Instead of going to the headquarters, she drove Ye Cheng to the Hedong City East Suburbs Office.

Secretary Wei, a 35-year-old man with a refined appearance and wearing glasses, led them to the reception room, offered them two cups of hot water, and said, "The district head is currently in talks with representatives of the Cheng Group. Please wait a moment."

Although she had already established a good relationship with Xu Menghao, Shen Qingrou still felt it necessary to win over Secretary Wei, so she politely asked, "Secretary Wei, what do you think our Shen Group's chances of winning are?"

Secretary Wei was taken aback, not expecting Shen Qingrou to ask him such a question. He maintained a professional smile and said, "I can't say for sure. The district head has his own judgment."

Shen Qingrou said, "Secretary Wei is too modest. I'm sure your opinion will have a significant impact on the district head."

Secretary Wei said, "President Shen is joking. I'm just someone who makes tea and pours water. How could the district head possibly ask for my opinion?"

At this moment, Ye Cheng interjected, "Secretary Wei is too modest. You are a top student who graduated from the School of Government."

The National Academy of Government Affairs is a place where the state specifically trains people to govern the country.

Those who graduate from this place are undoubtedly among the nation's best, and most of them also have certain backgrounds.

To get into university here, you need either a good mind or a good background.

Ye Cheng was the top scorer in the college entrance examination in Hedong City back then. If he had this intention, he would also be qualified to attend the School of Government.

Secretary Wei chuckled: "It seems Mr. Ye has studied my materials quite a bit."

Ye Cheng smiled and said, "It's not really research, but you hold an important position, so I have to find out about it."

As you know, the country provides you with very strict protection, and we can only get a superficial understanding of you.

Of course, you are a senior, and I hope to learn more about you and become friends with someone as talented as you.

Secretary Wei did not refuse: "It is my honor to be friends with two top scorers in the college entrance examination from Hedong City."

However, as you know, people in our line of work are very careful when making friends.

Especially making friends with people in your business circle.

This was a test of Ye Cheng and Shen Qingrou's sincerity. His subconscious thought was, "If I want to be friends with you, I have to take certain risks. How much sincerity can you show so that I can take those risks?"

Ye Cheng pretended not to understand and said, "A gentleman's friendship is as pure as water. Secretary Wei is no ordinary person. We would never try to win him over with money."

That answer...heh...

Disappointment flashed deep in Secretary Wei's eyes, but on the surface he was very satisfied with Ye Cheng's answer: "As expected of the top scorer in the college entrance examination, his ideological awareness is indeed different."

What are your thoughts on the future development of Hedong City?
