Let you be a great man, not a scumbag

Chapter 1834 What a great official power!

He strode forward, his voice filled with suppressed dissatisfaction: "Yu Yan, you're off work so early?"

He heard Zhang Jian call his name affectionately.

Wang Yuyan frowned.

She even glanced at Jiang Cheng subconsciously.

She looked like she was afraid Jiang Cheng would misunderstand.

She spoke calmly and confidently: "Manager Zhang, I submitted a leave request this morning, but I have something to do tonight and need to leave early..."

"A leave request?" Zhang Jian sneered and glanced at Jiang Cheng.

There was a hint of sarcasm in her tone, "You've only been at Aman for a few days? Do you really think this internship is something just anyone can do? You just started and you're already taking leave, don't you have any sense of propriety?"

His words were barbed and pointed, each one carrying a veil of criticism, clearly indicating that he had lost his composure after being provoked by what had just happened.

"Manager Zhang, right? Don't forget, the Qing Dynasty is gone!"

Jiang Cheng slowly raised his eyes, his gaze sweeping coldly over Zhang Jian's tense face.

His fingertips casually stroked the watch face, his tone carrying a hint of nonchalant sarcasm.

"You've already approved my leave request, so why are you bringing up old issues now? It's just an internship, not like I'm being sold to your hotel. So, working at Aman doesn't even give me normal personal time?"

He paused, his gaze falling on Wang Yuyan's slightly furrowed brows, and the curve of his lips grew even colder.

"Or does Manager Zhang think he has the power to bully an intern? Making things difficult for someone in public, that's quite impressive."

Zhang Jian's face turned pale and then red after being rebuked by his words, and he gritted his teeth.

He was putting on a show of being a manager.

"Sir, it's not my place to interfere in disciplining my own employees, is it? Are you here at Aman for a meal or a stay? I'll arrange a professional supervisor to serve you..."

“You don’t need to worry about that.” Jiang Cheng interrupted him, turned to Wang Yuyan, raised his chin, and smiled playfully. “I’ve already found a suitable ‘supervisor,’ don’t you think so, Miss Wang?”

Upon hearing this, Wang Yuyan curved her lips into a smile, a gentle yet teasing one: "That's true, not only are we suitable, but we seem to get along quite well."

Hearing such a suggestive remark, if it weren't for the occasion, Jiang Cheng would have liked to pull Wang Yuyan over and slap her butt a few times.

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian's face darkened completely, and the veins on his hand gripping the document bulged.

He stared at Wang Yuyan, his eyes blazing with fury.

He's been running around like a whiz these past few days, bringing coffee and desserts, but every time he's been met with indifference.

She turned around and smiled sweetly at a strange man, which was a public slap in his face!

He took a deep breath, about to say something even harsher, when he caught a glimpse of a familiar figure walking from the inside of the lobby.

It's the CEO!

Zhang Jian's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had grasped a lifeline, and he instantly suppressed the fierce look on his face.

He straightened his tie, strode forward, and said in an extremely respectful tone, "President, you've arrived?"

President Chen had only glanced at him briefly, and was about to look away when he suddenly stopped when his gaze fell on Jiang Cheng's face.

He was stunned for a second, then his face lit up with surprise.

He walked quickly towards Jiang Cheng.

He completely ignored Zhang Jian's outstretched hand in greeting, and instead extended his own hand, adopting an extremely humble posture: "Mr. Jiang! It really is you!"

Zhang Jian's outstretched hand froze in mid-air, and the smile on his face also solidified.

My heart skipped a beat; I had a vague sense of foreboding.

Jiang Cheng raised an eyebrow, looking at the middle-aged man in front of him with just the right amount of bewilderment on his face.

She reached out and shook his hand, her tone indifferent: "Who are you?"

Seeing that Jiang Cheng didn't offer his help, Chen Jianbin wasn't annoyed.

He quickly waved his hand and explained, "Mr. Jiang, I am Chen Tao, the person in charge here. I attended the land auction banquet for the Fengtai Wangdi last month and made a point of contacting you then. Perhaps you were too busy at the time and didn't notice me."

"Oh..."

Jiang Cheng didn't seem embarrassed and raised an eyebrow, extending his hand to shake hands with him.

With a perfectly measured, aloof smile on his face, he said, "So it's President Chen. I'm sorry, there were too many people at the social event that night, I really can't remember clearly."

Mr. Chen quickly waved his hand, his smile growing even warmer.

“It’s normal! You were so busy that day, it’s understandable that you didn’t remember. In fact, we received news of your trip to Kyoto a long time ago.”

Hearing this, Jiang Cheng was not surprised at all.

If we're talking about who pays the most attention to the activities of these wealthy people...

Aside from banks, these are the high-end hotels.

Chen Jianbin then explained, "Mr. Wang from Aman Shanghai had already shared your information with us, so I made a point of going to the banquet in Fengtai just to catch a glimpse of you."

The hall fell silent instantly upon hearing this.

Zhang Jian, who had been so arrogant just moments before, suddenly turned deathly pale.

His hand holding the document trembled uncontrollably, and his mouth opened and closed, but he couldn't utter a single word.

The employees around them, who were whispering amongst themselves, were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped. The way they looked at Jiang Cheng changed from initial amusement to awe in an instant.

Who would have thought that this young man, whom they regarded as an "ordinary rich kid," was actually a different person?

It turned out to be a top-tier VIP that even the CEO had to actively seek out!

To show his respect for Jiang Cheng, Zhang Jianbin introduced Jiang Cheng to Wang Jian behind him after saying this: "Manager Zhang, you must remember this. This is Mr. Jiang Cheng, the CEO of Xingchen Investment Company, and also the developer of that land in Fengtai."

He paused, then emphasized his words, adding, "Mr. Jiang is also a VIP guest of Amanyangyun. Whenever he makes a purchase at any of our Aman stores, he enjoys a 20% discount, and all services are arranged to the highest standards."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Jian's legs went weak, and he almost collapsed to the ground. His fawning smile froze like a mask, and cold sweat streamed down his forehead.

Hearing Chen Jianbin's words, Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "Mr. Chen, you're too kind. However, I'm afraid I can't afford the services at Aman Resorts in Kyoto..."

The moment these words were mentioned, Chen Jianbin's expression froze.

She turned her head and glared fiercely at Zhang Jian.

It implies that he's asking him what happened.
