Chapter 541: Chapter 541: Testing
"Director Chen, you called for me?" Zhao Bing entered, a look of confusion on his face.
Chen Feng didnāt ask him whether he had come in that morning, instead, he pointed to a stack of documents beside him and said, "Could you sort these documents for me first? Iām quite busy right now, and among the finance department, you seem to be the most available."
A gleam of joy appeared in Zhao Bingās eyes. This was indeed a rare and golden opportunity.
Zhao Bing carried the documents to a nearby table and began to categorize and arrange them.
Chen Feng watched Zhao Bingās practiced movements, a dark flash passing through his eyes. He hadnāt expected Zhao Bing to be someone who played dumb while concealing his capability. He had thought him to be a newcomer who knew nothing, but the orderly and methodical way he moved clearly showed his experience.
"Zhao Bing, youāve been with the company for a few months now," Chen Feng said with a smile. "How do you feel about it?"
Zhao Bing, somewhat grateful, replied: "The company is great, and the benefits are very good too. Being able to join Chaoyang Group feels like a dream even now!"
"Indeed, you are very lucky!" Director Chen said, "The old chairman hasnāt been involved with the company for many years, yet he broke the precedent for you and wrote a letter of introduction to President Yun personally. We are all quite envious!"
A smile appeared on Zhao Bingās face: "Yes, meeting Teacher Yun is the luckiest thing in my life!"
Under Chen Fengās skillful prompting, Zhao Bing gradually revealed more about himself, causing Chen Fengās heart to grow heavier.
He never would have imagined that Zhao Bing was actually a genius with a sharp insight into finance! Chen Feng also believed that Zhao Bingās visit to his office wasnāt just to tidy up; his goal was to examine his files!
Although the idea seemed a bit far-fetched at the moment, Chen Feng could only prepare for the worst now.
"Alright, just hand me the documents once youāve sorted them, and you can go back to your other tasks," Chen Feng said with a smile.
Once Zhao Bingās figure had left, Chen Feng took out his phone and dialed a number.
...
Indeed, Zhao Bing had entered Director Chenās office that morning to confirm his suspicions. But the documents he currently had were too insufficient to yield a definite conclusion.
After work, Zhao Bing headed towards the school. He still lived in the dormitory. Although the salary from Chaoyang Group was not low, saving a bit where possible was beneficial, allowing him to live a few more months at the school and save months of rent!
Walking on the street, Zhao Bing pondered work matters, recalling the words Chen Feng had spoken to him today. A trace of irritation showed on Zhao Bingās face!
He finally understood Chen Fengās intentions; he had been indirectly probing to find out more about him, and he had been led by the nose, revealing quite a bit of information!
"Too young, still too young!" Zhao Bing chided himself, "But since heās probing into my background, does that mean heās already suspicious of me? If thatās the case..."
Zhao Bing instantly felt that things were not going well. He had always thought he had concealed himself well, but he didnāt know where he had slipped up!
"Better call Brother Ling," Zhao Bing decided as he took out his phone.
Suddenly, a group of men and women approached from the opposite direction. Zhao Bing couldnāt dodge in time and collided with one of the women.
"Iām sorry, so sorry!" Zhao Bing apologized immediately.
"Ah! Brother Zhang, this manās been indecent, touched my chest!" To Zhao Bingās surprise, the girl suddenly screamed as if he had committed some horrendous act.
Zhao Bing was dumbfounded; he hadnāt done anything at all! Besides, he had already dodged their path by the time they approached, and it was as if that woman deliberately bumped into him, it wasnāt his fault at all!
"You little bastard, dare to touch my girlās chest?" At this moment, several men surrounded Zhao Bing, and one bald man coldly said, "I think you donāt want to live, do you? Which hand touched her? Iāll chop it off!"
Zhao Bing narrowed his eyes, and by now, if he still hadnāt figured it out, he would truly be an idiot!
"Extortion, huh?" Zhao Bing stared at the bald man and said, "First off, I didnāt touch your girl, and secondly, it was you who bumped into me. I have already apologized to you, and that should suffice! If you think you can use this opportunity to extort money from me, I think youāve miscalculated!"
"Ha, Brother Zhang, this guy is quite arrogant, huh! Touched the sister-in-law and still so defiant, even more like the underworld than us!" An adjacent skinny man chuckled.
The bald man coldly said, "Boy, donāt talk so confidently. Do you know how arrogant you are right now? I, Zhang Long, have been in this area for so long, and itās the first time someone has dared to be so arrogant with me! Iām telling you, hand over 20,000 yuan, or else Iāll let you know what it means to inflict pain!"
As he spoke, the bald man fiddled with a spring knife in his hand, looking at Zhao Bing with a cold gaze.
Zhao Bing coldly said, "So, you have indeed decided to extort me?"
"Extort? Of course not!" Zhang Long licked his lips and said, "Itās just a little compensation for my girl; after touching my girl, how could I possibly let you off so easily?"
Zhao Bing sighed and said, "I really donāt understand you punks, randomly so keen on playing the cuckold. Do you have a masochistic tendency or what? Or does it satisfy your twisted desires when your woman gets molested?"
Zhang Long widened his eyes, "You little bastard dare..."
"Moreover, your taste is really low!" Zhao Bing disdainfully glanced at the girl and said, "With her face plastered with foundation thicker than a road and wearing such pungent, cheap perfume, even if she were offered up for free, I wouldnāt touch her. It would just pollute my sight and lower my standards of beauty!"
Zhang Long was furious, gritting his teeth, he said, "Alright you little punk, Iām telling you, youāve deeply offended me! If I donāt teach you a good lesson today, I might as well take your surname!"
Zhao Bing looked at this group of murderous punks, and his hand reached into his backpack, "So, if I give you 20,000, youād let me go?"
Zhang Long sneered, "Let you go? Iāve changed my mind, you look neat and clean, today Iām going to break you apart, see if you dare to be arrogant with me again!"
Zhao Bingās hand came out of the backpack holding a bag.
Suddenly, Zhao Bing threw the bag at those punks!
"Ah, my eyes, itās burning my eyes!"
"Damn, thatās chili powder, fuck his granny, he had chili powder in his bag, itās burning me!"
"Damn it, Iām going to break him apart, make his life worse than death!"
...
This chili powder was originally prepared by Zhao Bing for a hotpot with his dormitory mates that evening. He hadnāt expected it to come in handy at this moment!
After throwing the chili powder, Zhao Bing ran off. There were seven or eight of these punks, and Zhao Bing was no Huang Feihong; even two or three of them were more than he could handle!
