Chapter 142 - Deeny’s Request
Su Yang and Wang Dong arrived at the restaurant. They asked the waiter for the special of the day and ordered two dishes first while waiting for Manager Zhang to show up.
They also told the waiter to serve the dishes first when they were ready, and Manager Zhang could order more when he arrived.
A while later, Manager Zhang finally arrived. He still looked like how he was when Su Yang first met him: a bloated, oily-looking man in a suit.
However, this time around, he was much friendlier to Su Yang and Wang Dong. He smiled and put his hand out for a shake. “My, my, I’m sorry that I’m late.” He was just trying to be courteous.
Su Yang shook his hand and said, “No, no, we are the ones who are early.”
The three of them sat down and ordered more dishes. Su Yang told the waiter to serve some alcohol first, but Manager Zhang waved his hand. He said, “Oh, spare me the alcohol. I’m not as healthy as you young folks. Why don’t we drink tea for our little gathering?”
Su Yang was not a drinker anyway, so he happily ordered a pot of tea.
When the tea was served, Wang Dong automatically stood up and poured a cup for Manager Zhang and Su Yang before getting a cup for himself.
Dinner went on smoothly.
After dinner, Su Yang asked, “Is everyone full?”
Wang Dong nodded and Manager Zhang said with a face full of smiles. “The food is not bad.”
“I’ll go get the bill.” Su Yang put his hand into his pocket and grabbed his phone together with the hourglass. He propped his hand on the table and got up.
When the hourglass stood on the table, time stopped. The space in the VIP room started to swirl rapidly like a whirlpool.
Since he had already experienced it once, Su Yang was not worried at all, he patiently waited for the hourglass to transfer him into Manager Zhang’s memory.
A moment later, Su Yang arrived inside Manager Zhang’s memory sequence, and this time around, he did not wander as he had done with Little Hus. He swiftly went through the sequences and locked onto the matters about the acquisition.
Twenty minutes later, he went out of the Memory Maze after grasping most of the details.
‘Now, I see…’
Back in the real world, Su Yang stood up and got out of the room. He called the waiter and paid the bill. He also asked for a receipt for the meal.
After they left the restaurant, the two of them sent Manager Zhang off.
Wang Dong then nervously looked at Su Yang and asked, “Mr. Su, we didn’t get anything from Brother Zhang tonight!”
Su Yang smiled and patted his shoulder. “Don’t worry about it. I’m getting to the bottom of it.”
He did not say why despite the confused look on Wang Dong. Instead, he told Wang Dong, “We will be focusing on the larger clients from now on. Didn’t you say something about having contacts with Junqing Intermediary’s clientele? Try your best and get them over here. We won’t be working with them anymore.”
He also added, “Try your best to fill the remaining job listings by this weekend. I hope I won’t have to go to the client’s side to talk about the weekend jobs anymore.
Wang Dong nodded repeatedly and nervously. “Yes, sir! I’ll do my best!”
Su Yang nodded. He then parted ways with Wang Dong and headed home. After he reached his basement, he jumped into the virtual space.
After a tedious day, he had settled most of the troublesome matters, but they almost exhausted him. He collapsed on the couch like a dead person. He shut his eyes and enjoyed all the rest he could get.
A while later, a petite figure snuck up to him. She put her soft hands on his shoulder and started massaging him.
Su Yang’s eyes remained closed, but he knew it was Deeny based on the massage. He asked, “What brings you here automatically today? I usually have to call you and you are always reluctant to massage me.”
Deeny put on a wide, flattering smile and said, “Master, I have a tiny request.”
