Inheritance of Two Trillion

Chapter 663: Chapter 663: Training Class - Lesson Two_1

Zhao Qianze and Jiang Beicheng reached a cooperation, which was a cause for general celebration.

”Sheng, I owe you big time this time. Come on, let me toast to you!” With a burden off his mind, Zhao Qianze couldn’t help but give Bai Xiaosheng a grateful smile.

Next to her, Luo Yiyi quickly found two clean cups, poured the wine, and handed them over.

”Mr. Bai, I ought to toast to you as well!” Jiang Beicheng said with a pleasing smile on his face, lifting his own cup.

Luo Yiyi and Yin also picked up their cups.

While everyone was toasting to Bai Xiaosheng, poor Zheng Qinghong and Bai Xiaocheng were completely ignored, which was rather awkward.

”Qianze, I’ve got something else to take care of, so I’ll be taking my leave first. We’ll catch up another day.” Zheng Qinghong’s half-swollen face was quite a sight, and he spoke as if he had hot tofu in his mouth.

”Okay, I won’t see you out,” Zhao Qianze said with a polite, light smile.

Before Zheng Qinghong left, he shot Bai Xiaosheng a dark look and snorted coldly.

Bai Xiaocheng gave everyone a sheepish smile and followed right behind him.

As these two left dejectedly, no one gave them a second glance.

Bai Xiaosheng, holding his cup, said with a smile to Zhao and Jiang, ”Then let this cup bear witness to your delightful cooperation!”

With that, Bai Xiaosheng downed it in one gulp.

His frankness impressed Zhao Qianze and Jiang Beicheng, who likewise emptied their cups in a single drink.

Luo Yiyi and Yin sipped their drinks in accompaniment.

”However, Mr. Jiang, there’s something I want to say to you — ’business should be done ethically,’ and this business of stealing others’ achievements...” Bai Xiaosheng gave Jiang Beicheng a serious look, ”I hope you won’t do it again in the future!”

When he said this, Bai Xiaosheng’s voice was still calm and his tone was not harsh.

But Jiang Beicheng definitely felt the pressure.

He couldn’t help but nod and said respectfully, ”You’re right, Mr. Bai! I reflect on it, and I won’t make the same mistake again!”

Seeing this, Bai Xiaosheng smiled.

Then he said to Zhao Qianze and the rest, ”I have friends waiting on my end, so I won’t stay any longer. See you later.”

Zhao Qianze hesitated to say more but ended up just smiling, ”Then I won’t bother you anymore today.”

Bai Xiaosheng nodded and turned to leave, as the others watched him go.

”Sorry to keep you waiting, ladies!”

Heading back, Bai Xiaosheng noticed an odd look in Feng Li’s eyes.

Huo Qianxun, however, had sparkling eyes, and Bai Xiaosheng was taken aback, then quickly understood. Huo Qianxun must have told Feng Li about his ”heroic deeds.”

But in the subsequent conversation, they didn’t bring it up.

Noticing that it was about time, Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile, ”Have you ladies had your fill? I’ve got some things to handle back at the company, so I think we’ll call it a day.”

As the moment to part loomed, Huo Qianxun seemed somewhat reluctant to leave.

Laughing, Feng Li said, ”This meal has taken quite some time, Qian Xun, we should head back too.”

Huo Qianxun had no choice but to agree.

With that, the three of them got up and headed out.

Bai Xiaosheng glanced over at Zhao Qianze’s table, which was already empty, indicating she must have left.

However, Zhao Qianze had left without coming over to say goodbye, perhaps because she was in a hurry to sign the contract, or perhaps she didn’t want to add awkwardness and misunderstanding upon seeing Officer Feng Li.

But when it came to settling the bill, they were told that it had already been taken care of by someone else.

Feng Li tried to give the money to Bai Xiaosheng, but he laughed and said, ”I didn’t spend this money, and I certainly can’t take it.”

Despite his insistence not to take it, Feng Li found herself unable to convince him.

”Then be sure to thank your friend for me,” Feng Li said with a smile.

She didn’t know that Zhao Qianze was the friend Bai Xiaosheng had gone to meet.

While Huo Qianxun had sneakily glanced a couple of times, Feng Li wouldn’t do that. Minding the proprieties was important to her.

”Alright, I think my friend would be most honored to hear your words,” Bai Xiaosheng said with a pun, teasingly.

In the end, Huo Qianxun was still reluctant to part.

”Brother Bai, let’s meet up next time and go shopping together!” The girl had already made plans in advance.

”Hmm, next time,” Bai Xiaosheng replied with a warm smile, neither refusing nor agreeing.

He watched the two women leave and couldn’t help but stretch his arms to embrace the warm afternoon sunlight.

”This meal sure had its share of issues,” Bai Xiaosheng muttered to himself.

Afterward, Bai Xiaosheng hailed a cab and returned to the office. Just as he sat down, he received a message from Feng Li, ”The day after tomorrow is the second session of the training class. Same place, don’t be late.”

So soon, another class was starting?

Bai Xiaosheng smiled and simply replied with one word, ”Okay.”

Time flies like a shuttle.

In the blink of an eye, the appointed day arrived.

Bai Xiaosheng arrived at Zhongjing University’s amphitheater classroom just as he had last time, not too early nor too late.

He headed for his usual seat and had just sat down when Zhao Qianze rushed in like a gust of wind, excitedly sitting next to him.

Seeing Zhao Qianze with a smile blooming like flowers, her pretty face indescribably charming and alluring, Bai Xiaosheng knew that her progress must be going well. Her cooperation with Jiang Beicheng was smooth sailing.

And sure enough—

”Brother Bai, I really owe you one for last time!” Zhao Qianze said with a smile, ”My collaboration with Jiang Beicheng went smoothly! With his help, our perfume will have no issue winning the Asia region qualifications. With proper planning for the Seven Continents evaluation, even if we don’t come out on top, ranking second or third isn’t a problem! It’s an international award! That honor alone is enough to take our company to the next level!”

”Then I wish you success in advance!” Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile.

The perfume, which was essentially his own creation, would make him happy to see it succeed.

”Actually, since the perfume originated from you, after the competition, I’ll register the patent under your name. Jiang Beicheng and I agreed that we both have only the right to use it!” Zhao Qianze stated earnestly.

”Is that necessary?” Bai Xiaosheng didn’t really care about it.

However, since Zhao Qianze insisted, he didn’t mind.

”If it comes to dividends, just have Jiang Beicheng give it to his boss. He’s my brother,” Bai Xiaosheng said.

In truth, he just didn’t want to deal with the hassle.

”That works!” Zhao Qianze nodded in agreement.

The brother Bai Xiaosheng mentioned must be a major figure, and Zhao Qianze too wanted to forge a good relationship.

”Also, you might not know this,” Zhao Qianze said with a smile, ”that Mr. Jiang is quite something himself, having taken a pay cut as self-punishment.”

Oh? Bai Xiaosheng was a bit surprised.

Whether true or not, Jiang Beicheng was a clever man; this move was for himself and for Zhengdong Province to see.

”Moreover, that Yin, he’s the one who makes my blood boil with rage, that bastard. Despite my kindness to him, he betrayed me!” Zhao Qianze huffed with a cold snort, then smiled and continued, ”Mr. Jiang punished him for me, fired him from the company and demanded that he not enter this industry for the next five years, or else we’ll sue him for leaking trade secrets!”

Zhao Qianze spoke with a sense of gratifying vengeance.

That Yin must be full of regret to the point where his guts were turning green.

”Alright, as long as you’re happy,” Bai Xiaosheng said with a smile.

To him, these were trivial matters.

While the two were talking, the door of the amphitheater classroom opened, and Zheng Qinghong walked in.

After a couple of days, the swelling on his half of the face had finally subsided somewhat, but it was still incredibly noticeable.

Bai Xiaocheng followed behind, telling everyone that Mr. Zheng had acted heroically.

He was doing damage control all the way.

Although Officer Feng Li mentioned the possibility of disqualifying Bai Xiaocheng, the formal notice had not yet arrived. So, Bai Xiaocheng was still there.

Zheng Qinghong took his usual seat. Not long after he arrived, Officer Feng Li also entered and headed straight for the podium.

Standing on the podium, he surveyed the crowd below, especially giving Bai Xiaosheng a look.

Officer Feng Li smiled and announced loudly, ”It seems everyone is in good spirits! Very good! For this session, let’s play a game!”

The crowd was startled.

Bai Xiaosheng was also taken aback.

A game?
