Xiao Zheng's heart sank as the phone rang. After picking it up, he forced a smile and said, "Your Majesty, do you have something important to talk to me about?"
Her Majesty Ling Lai on the other side of the phone smiled gently and said, "It seems that Boss Xiao and I really have a telepathic connection."
Xiao Zheng was even more speechless.
The European and North American markets were in crisis, and the Phantom series was already in a passive situation. If even Ling Lai disassociated himself and completely stopped … The Phantom series alone would attract all of Xiao Zheng's attention. He would not be in the mood to do anything else.
When the plate was big, there would be all kinds of risks. Therefore, many big bosses had a time limit for eating and going to the bathroom, not to mention a good night's sleep. Seven or eight meetings a day were considered too few. More than a dozen were common.
One word, tired.
Xiao Zheng was a little annoyed and lit a cigarette. He was not in the position to criticize others. He pursed his lips and said, "Your Majesty, if you have something to say, just say it. I, Xiao Zheng, have been through a lot. I can handle it. "
"It's not that exaggerated-" Ling Lai, on the other side of the phone, smiled and said slowly. "I want to hold a birthday party next week and invite some elites from all over the world. I wonder if Boss Xiao has time? "
Not the trouble of the Phantom series?
Xiao Zheng was relieved when he heard this.
Although he was Xin Ao's boss and had a strong network, it was only limited to Hua Xia. However, that was only limited to Huaxia. Outside the country, those so-called relationships were mostly based on interests or emotional connections. If they were giving you face, you would help them. If they didn't give you face, it was completely reasonable. Xiao Zheng could not use threats or temptations.
The so-called multinational groups, in addition to their own strength, had to spend a lot of effort to maintain those foreign networks. Otherwise, it was the same no matter who they worked with. Why did they have to give you the benefits?
Over the years, Xiao Zheng understood these principles. He became more and more low-key and cautious in his actions. He was afraid that others would have any opinions about him, which would affect the business cooperation.
By the time Xiao Zheng got home, it was already eleven o 'clock at night. After the shower, he laid on the bed, exhausted. He didn't dare to fall asleep immediately. Instead, he thought about the future direction of Xin Ao.
"Don't be too tense."
Lin Huayin, who was woken up by Xiao Zheng, reached out a hand and gently stroked his arm. "Since it happened, go and solve it. Once you're nervous, it will hinder your train of thought. "
Xiao Zheng laughed bitterly and gently held Elder Lin's hand, "Yes, that's right. The Zhao family's casual move made me so nervous that I couldn't stay calm. If he really used his full strength, wouldn't I be badly battered? "
"It's you who thinks too highly of them," Lin Huayin said softly. "Show me your true level. Then, treat it with a normal heart. No matter how strong they are, they only have a head and a pair of hands. "
This was Elder Lin's attitude.
No matter how strong the enemy was. From her point of view, it was just a war.
No one was missing an arm or a leg. Why should she be afraid? Why should she be afraid?
"Oh right, Elder Lin." Xiao Zheng lay on the bed and said softly. "I'm going to Tokyo in a few days."
"Going out again?" Lin Huayin frowned slightly.
The last trip to Moscow had tormented Elder Lin quite a bit. He was almost traumatized.
"This time, I'm attending a banquet." Xiao Zheng squeezed Elder Lin's hand. "I might have to meet some people. I don't know if it will help the situation. "
Lin Huayin nodded and said, "No matter what, we must be cautious."
Facing the giant Zhao family, Xiao Zheng was stressed, but Elder Lin couldn't be completely relaxed.
In her heart, she could treat the Zhao family as an ordinary enemy. But in reality, this so-called ordinary enemy had a power that made countless wealthy families in Hua Xia feel afraid.
This family was like a magnificent dynasty, with immeasurable power. Kill the Buddha!
…
As it was a troubled time in Sijiu City, Xiao Zheng only gave two days. Before boarding the plane, he even signed a few urgent letters for Xiao Taohong to bring back.
Xiao Zheng wasn't there, so the heavy responsibility of running the business fell on the shoulders of Lin Huayin and Blue Heart.
Of these two women, one was domineering, the other meticulous and cautious. They were both business women that were hard to come by. In just two days, Xiao Zheng didn't think that anything big would happen.
After arriving at the airport, Xiao Zheng was quickly invited into the car by two cold-looking young men in suits. It was a car that His Majesty Ling Lai had personally arranged.
Based on what Xiao Zheng knew, the banquet was held in a noble hotel that had close ties with the royal family. Most of the VIPs were also arranged to stay in this hotel. But when Xiao Zheng looked at the road, the driver didn't head towards the noble hotel. Instead, he went straight to the royal palace.
"Not going to the hotel?" Xiao Zheng asked curiously.
"The hotel's concealment isn't good," the chauffeur-cum-bodyguard said courteously. "His Majesty hopes that Boss Xiao can stay in the palace's guest room."
Hearing this, a smile appeared on Xiao Zheng's face.
It seemed that he, as a guest, was receiving superior treatment. Even the standard of living was higher than that of ordinary guests.
The car stopped at a side gate of the palace. Just as Xiao Zheng got out of the car, he was welcomed in by two servant girls with calm expressions. He went straight to the prince's residence …
"The same place."
Xiao Zheng raised his head to take a look. This was the residence that His Majesty Ling Lai had lived in before ascending to the throne. To Xiao Zheng, this was the most suitable place to live. The environment was elegant, quiet, and very familiar.
After entering the residence, Xiao Zheng didn't even take a sip of tea before leisurely walking to the flower garden in the rear courtyard.
"His Majesty?"
Xiao Zheng fixed his eyes on the graceful figure in the flower garden. Wasn't it His Majesty Ling Lai whom he hadn't seen for a long time?
She was wearing a casual attire, less luxurious, but more elegant and calm. On her graceful and classic face, there was a tranquil smile.
Under the sunlight, she looked dreamy. Not as gloomy and gloomy as usual.
"Boss Xiao, don't you think this bunch of peach blossoms is blooming?" His Majesty Ling Lai smiled charmingly.
Xiao Zheng nodded with a Smile and sighed from the bottom of his heart, "She's more beautiful than the flowers."
His Majesty Ling Lai was indeed a rare beauty. His innate temperament was even more captivating. Xiao Zheng clearly knew how powerful this woman, who had become an overlord, was. Naturally, it was better to be polite.
"Is Boss Xiao complimenting me?" His Majesty Ling Lai smiled gently and walked out of the flower garden. A delicate fragrance danced in the air, and there was a yearning look on her face. "It's been a long journey. Boss Xiao, you must be hungry, right?"
Xiao Zheng Smile nodded and didn't dare to answer.
They were having dinner in the living room of the residence. The table full of dishes surprised Xiao Zheng even more.
"They are all Hua Xia dishes." After sitting down, Xiao Zheng had mixed feelings.
Judging by the color and smell of the dishes, there was no doubt that they were cooked by His Majesty Ling Lai.
Now, this big shot was already the master of the palace. But he still cooked a table full of delicious food for himself. It would be a lie to say that he didn't feel anything.
"Thank you, Boss Xiao, for coming in person." His Majesty Ling Lai raised his glass and smiled. "Here's to you."
