Chapter 108 - 108: Global Financial Center Building



Having left the parking lot, Zhou Chao was currently standing near the entrance on the ground floor, making a call to Li Xiang. He had forgotten to ask Li Xiang which floor their office was on earlier in the morning.

Meanwhile, Li Xiang, who was about to commence a meeting, heard his phone ring. His brow furrowed, and he was just about to end the call when he saw the name displayed on the screen. He promptly left the meeting room, leaving a puzzled group behind—exchanging glances with each other.

“Hello, boss,” Li Xiang spoke respectfully from a quiet room.

“Li Xiang, which floor is your office located on?”

“Boss, our office is on the 13th floor. Shall 1 come down to escort you?”

“No need, I’ll head straight to your office.”

“Understood, boss. I’m currently in a meeting. You might need to wait a bit.” As Li Xiang spoke these words, he instantly felt like he had misspoken. Could a meeting be more important than the boss?

“It’s alright, you carry on with your meeting. I’ll explore around in the meantime.” Ending the call, Li Xiang wiped the sweat from his forehead and tidied up before returning to the meeting room.

Taking the elevator, Zhou Chao ascended to the 13th floor. Observing the vacant office, he guessed that everyone must be in a meeting. He found a chair and settled down, scrolling through short videos while he waited for Li Xiang to finish his meeting.

“Good day. Is there something I can assist you with?” A crisp voice came from beside Zhou Chao. He looked up and saw a girl around 24 years old.

“Oh, I’m looking for Li Xiang. And you are?”

“I’m the receptionist here. I got held up for a moment. Would you like me to make you a cup of tea, sir?” The receptionist turned around to prepare tea for Zhou Chao.

Observing the girl’s appearance, Zhou Chao surmised she must be a recent intern.

“All, Young Master Chen, please don’t behave like this!” The voice of the receptionist could be heard from the nearby pantry.

“Little lady, it’s your good fortune that I’ve taken an interest in you. Come with me, and you’ll enjoy all the luxuries. I can even buy you designer handbags.” Upon hearing this voice, Zhou Chao recognized it as the scoundrel from the parking garage. He quickly stood up and headed toward the pantry.

Pushing open the door to the pantry, he saw that Young Master Chen was about to approach the front desk girl huddled in the corner. If she hadn’t been holding hot water in her hands, Young Master Chen would have succeeded.

The sound of the door being pushed open by Zhou Chao made Chen Shao halt his advances towards the front desk girl.

“It’s you, punk. You dare show up in front of me again?” As the saying goes, when foes meet, they’re bound to see red. Young Master Chen thought of the humiliation he had suffered in the car park earlier upon seeing Zhou Chao.

Without even looking at him, Zhou Chao turned to the receptionist and said, “You can leave for now.” The young lady promptly hurried out.

“Kid, you’re meddling again, huh?” Young Master Chen did not stop the receptionist from leaving. His only focus now was dealing with the man before him.

However, Zhou Chao paid him no heed, simply turning back to walk toward the chair he had occupied earlier.

Seeing himself being ignored, Young Master Chen’s anger surged instantly. He ran straight toward Zhou Chao, intending to kick him from behind.

“Watch out!” The receptionist saw Young Master Chen jump up and quickly exclaimed.

Zhou Chao simply shifted his body slightly, and Chen Shao whizzed past him in an instant. He ended up kicking the chair instead, crashing onto the ground.

“Ouch! Who the fuck told you to dodge? You little twerp!” By now, Young Master Chen had completely lost his composure. He climbed to his feet and charged at Zhou Chao.

Zhou Chao’s body had already reached its peak physical condition. While he hadn’t learned any formal martial arts, dealing with a spoiled playboy like Young Master Chen posed no problem.

As Young Master Chen charged forward with a straight kick, Zhou Chao sidestepped effortlessly. Chen Shao overshot his target, kicking nothing but air. He ended up overexerting himself and crashing to the ground, groaning in pain.

Young Master Chen’s groans quickly drew the attention of the people in the midst of their meeting. Just as Li Xiang was preparing to step out and investigate, a voice from beside him stopped him in his tracks.

“Mr. Li, should I go check on what that young man is up to?” Li Xiang turned around to see who had spoken—it was Chen Guanliang, the company’s vice manager. He nodded in response.

Lying on the ground, Young Master Chen saw Chen Guanliang walking out and loudly shouted, “Dad, he hit me! He hit me so hard!”

Chen Guanliang had just come out of the meeting room when he saw his precious son on the ground, accompanied by this man. He hurried over to examine his son’s injuries.

“Xiao Ci, are you okay?” Chen Guanliang looked at Young Master Chen with concern.

“Dad, I’m fine. 1 just pulled a muscle earlier.” Chen Guanliang helped his son to his feet.

“Xiao Ci, could you please explain the situation?” Chen Guanliang inquired urgently. As he recounted the events, Young Master Chen’s character underwent a transformation, appearing as a noble figure who had stood up to protect a young lady from harassment over a parking spot. On the other hand, Zhou Chao’s portrayal took a negative turn, painting him as an unredeemable antagonist.

Upon hearing Chen Shao’s explanation, Zhou Chao couldn’t help but chuckle, “If you pursued a career in scriptwriting, you might already be famous in the entertainment industry!”

After listening, Chen Guanliang understood what had transpired. Most likely, his son was the one at fault here. However, he was still his son.

“Kid, 1 won’t argue with you anymore. Please leave our company premises. You’re not welcome here.”

“Seriously? Is this your company? Do you even have the qualifications?” Zhou Chao found Chen Guanliang’s words even more amusing.

“Young man, whether you believe it or not, every company within the Global Center will turn you away. Let’s see if your arrogance remains intact in the face of that reality.”

“Oh, I’m so scared. I didn’t know you had the authority for that.”

“Hmph, kid, let me tell you, my dad is in charge of managing the entire building. Anyone who doesn’t cooperate gets kicked out of here directly.” Hearing the arrogance in Chen Ci’s voice, Zhou Chao couldn’t help but sense something fishy going on. Otherwise, how could he afford a several-million-dollar luxury car?”

“Managing the whole building? You’re really trying to make me laugh. Just based on your dad, does he have that capability?”

“My dad is the deputy manager. Aside from the manager, he’s the highest-ranking person here. What can’t he do?” Zhou Chao now understood the situation. He didn’t want to continue this charade with the two of them. He took out his phone and called Li Xiang.

“Kid, now you realize the need to call for help? Let me tell you, it’s too late. If you kneel down, kowtow ten times, and crawl between my legs, I’ll spare you on my father’s behalf.” As Chen Ci spoke, he pointed to his crotch. Chen Guanliang, standing beside him, didn’t say anything, seemingly agreeing with Chen Ci’s words.

“Hello, boss!”

“I’m outside. Come out immediately.” Zhou Chao’s words made Li Xiang instantly feel that something major had occurred. He also recalled Chen Guanliang leaving earlier and felt like he was about to faint.

Li Xiang mustered his energy and swiftly left the meeting room. The other people in the meeting room quickly followed.

Upon reaching the office area, Li Xiang saw the confrontation unfolding before him. The most handsome man in the crowd immediately caught his attention he knew that was the boss.

Hurrying to Zhou Chao’s side, he respectfully said, “Boss!”

“Boss!” Li Xiang’s voice was as explosive as a bomb in everyone’s ears. Chen Guanliang was left dumbfounded, supporting himself against a desk to steady himself.

“Contact the police immediately. Initiate an inquiry into whether Chen Guanliang engaged in any unethical dealings during the office space leasing period. Start the investigation promptly. Reach out to all the tenants who have leased office spaces. I expect a conclusive outcome by the end of the day. Otherwise, Li Xiang, you might as well start packing your belongings.” With those words, Zhou Chao paid no attention to the Chen father and son who were already seated on the ground. He proceeded directly into Li Xiang’s office..
