Chapter 1927: Don’t Cause Trouble for Mr. Xiao
"Throw her out!"
"I don’t want to see her again!"
After venting, Yu Shaobei spoke to the bodyguards beside him.
As for his gaze towards the unconscious Lin Jiahui, it was filled with disgust.
The four bodyguards quickly followed the order, lifting Lin Jiahui and walking out of the private room.
During the whole process, the onlooking crew members didn’t even dare to breathe. Each of their gazes towards Xiao Zheng was filled with awe. Even Chu Xiaoran became an object of their reverence.
"Mr. Xiao."
"I hope today’s incident won’t leave a bad impression on you."
"I can guarantee, I am completely different from my cousin’s family. Both my father and I are loyal to you, as clear as day and night!"
Although Lin Jiahui was dismissed, Yu Shaobei did not forget that Xiao Zheng still held his fate.
Turning around, he then knelt in front of Xiao Zheng again.
Seeing the once arrogant Yu Shaobei now bowing and scraping to Xiao Zheng, the crew staff felt extremely complicated inside.
Upon hearing this, Xiao Zheng said calmly: "I won’t lie to you, whoever bullies my woman, I won’t let them go, no matter who they are. But considering your sincere attitude in admitting your mistake, and your previous contribution of defecting and providing the map, I can spare your life this time."
"Thank you, Mr. Xiao!" Yu Shaobei said excitedly at once.
Seeing that he was about to kowtow again, Xiao Zheng spoke: "Don’t be in a rush to thank me yet. I still have to clarify the unpleasant truth. No matter who it is, I will only give them one chance. If it happens again, I doubt I need to spell out your fate?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Shaobei quickly said: "Please rest assured Mr. Xiao, I promise there won’t be a next time! If, and I mean if, a similar incident happens again, I guarantee you won’t have to lift a finger, I will take my own life to atone for it!"
Seeing his performance, Xiao Zheng nodded with satisfaction.
Only after seeing the coldness on his face gradually disappear did Yu Shaobei finally relax.
Knowing that he was no longer fit to stay, Yu Shaobei got up and said: "Then I shall take my leave, not to disturb Mr. Xiao and this lady’s meal."
"You may go," Xiao Zheng said indifferently.
Yu Shaobei, feeling as if granted amnesty, hurriedly left the private room.
When turning around, seeing the crew staff gathered at the private room door watching the show, he couldn’t help but glare: "You all get lost! Don’t disturb Mr. Xiao’s mood!"
Now Yu Shaobei seemed to transform into Xiao Zheng’s most loyal lapdog, shouting orders to the crowd.
No one dared to complain, quickly and sheepishly fleeing the scene.
After everyone had left, Chu Xiaoran asked worriedly: "Xiao Zheng, did things get too heated tonight? Will it cause you any trouble?"
Hearing this, Xiao Zheng shook his head and laughed: "It’s alright, it was just a small matter, don’t worry about it. Let’s eat first, after dinner, we’ll go home."
In truth, after such an incident, Chu Xiaoran no longer had the appetite to continue eating.
After a few bites, she said she was full.
Xiao Zheng then got up to settle the bill. As he left the restaurant, he unexpectedly saw the director squatting at the door smoking, cigarette butts littered the ground, his face full of worry.
Maybe noticing the movement behind, the director stood up immediately feeling a bit awkward upon seeing Xiao Zheng and Chu Xiaoran.
Xiao Zheng knew what he was worried about, so he said: "Rest assured, the company will send a new lead actress to the crew tomorrow. Also, you don’t need to worry about the budget, the subsequent funds will continue to come in, just focus on making your film."
Suddenly hearing him say this, the director was a bit stunned.
After all, until this moment, the director did not know about Xiao Zheng’s true identity.
It was Chu Xiaoran who explained: "Director Wang, he is actually the chairman of Qianqiu Group and the biggest investor in our film. There’s no mistake in what he says."
Hearing this, the director was suddenly shocked, looking at Xiao Zheng with disbelief.
He never expected that Xiao Zheng had hidden such an identity.
Xiao Zheng smiled and didn’t say much, then left Yutai Mountain Scenic Spot with Chu Xiaoran. Only after their car drove off into the distance did a hint of a smile appear on the director’s face...
When they got home, it was already past ten o’clock at night.
Leng Ruobing had long gone to bed.
Both Xiao Zheng and Chu Xiaoran tried not to wake her, chatting briefly in the living room before heading to their respective rooms for rest.
The next day.
Leng Ruobing was still the first one awake in the house. Seeing Xiao Zheng sleeping beside her, a happy smile appeared on her face. She couldn’t help but reach out to touch Xiao Zheng’s cheek.
However, before her hand could get close, Xiao Zheng grabbed her wrist with a mischievous smile and said, "Taking advantage of someone early in the morning, that’s not a good habit, you know."
Hearing his words, Leng Ruobing’s cheeks flushed red: "So you were already awake."
Xiao Zheng replied with a smile: "No, I just woke up."
"Did I wake you? Do you want to sleep a bit more?" Leng Ruobing asked with concern.
Xiao Zheng shook his head and said: "No need, I’ve slept long enough. By the way, how did the pregnancy check-up go yesterday? Is our baby developing healthily?"
Hearing him mention the baby, Leng Ruobing’s face glowed with maternal pride: "Dr. Chen said our baby’s development is great. But she advised me to go for weekly check-ups from now on."
"Then we should listen to the doctor. After all, Dr. Chen is an expert in this field," Xiao Zheng said.
Even though he had clairvoyant eyes and the ability to heal, this being their first child, he was especially cautious.
The two chatted for a while in bed before getting up.
Xiao Zheng personally cooked a scrumptious breakfast for Leng Ruobing. He also prepared some for Chu Xiaoran, who was still not up and probably wouldn’t appear until a couple of hours later.
After breakfast, Leng Ruobing suddenly said: "Xiao Zheng, if you’re free recently, could you visit the company more often on my behalf?"
"Why? Is there something going on at the company?" Xiao Zheng asked, puzzled.
Leng Ruobing shook her head: "No, it’s just that with me on leave, all the company matters fall on Anna alone. If you have the time, please help share some of the burden."
"She’s really working hard too."
Upon hearing her, Xiao Zheng immediately thought of a charming figure, then smiled and nodded.
