Chapter 163 Putting Up an Act, Playing Along
In Li Chengqian’s studio, he was wearing a brainwave receiver on his head. When he saw Li Na bring Zhang Tianling in, he stopped his code writing.
“Li Na, get on with your work!”
“Zhang Tianling, stay behind. I have something to ask her.”
The jealousy in Li Na’s eyes deepened. After looking at Zhang Tianling intently, she quickly walked out.
Originally, she was only guessing. Now, Li Chengqian had confirmed her guess. He was interested in Zhang Tianling, just like any other man.
“Although the boss is very powerful and technically talented, he’s just like other men. He’s vulgar! He only likes beautiful women.” Li Na complained in her heart.
Zhang Tianling’s face was filled with panic, like a little white rabbit meeting a big bad wolf. This expression coupled with her beautiful face made the desire to protect her even stronger. After Li Na left, Li Chengqian didn’t say a word. His gaze was fixed on Zhang Tianling. His eyes were calm, without any emotion. There was in fact even a trace of coldness.
“Boss, may I ask why you called me?” Even though Zhang Tianling was very experienced, under Li Chengqian’s aggressive gaze, it was as if all her pretense had lost its effect. She felt uneasy all over.
She forced herself to calm down and pretended to be very nervous, which made her even more charming.
“It’s nothing. It’s just that I heard that a beautiful, highly educated PHD student joined the company. I was very curious about what you looked like, so I asked you in so as to get to know you.”
“Alright, now that I’ve met you, you may leave.”
“Work hard. Don’t disappoint me,” Li Chengqian said with a smile, but the coldness in his eyes didn’t change at all.
After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he retracted his gaze.
Zhang Tianling thought that she had hidden it very well, but in fact, from the first day she joined the company, she had been discovered by the AI, Bai Ze.
After three days of tracking and observation, Li Chengqian was already certain that Zhang Tianling was definitely a spy or something along this line.
The purpose of coming to Divine Dragon Software was definitely for the advanced technologies like brainwave coding technology and Divine Dragon System.
In order to prevent Zhang Tianling from spreading the news, the construction of the automated factory was kept confidential even within the Divine Dragon Software Company. Other than a few higher-ups, no one knew about the automated factory.
Li Chengqian naturally had a purpose for calling Zhang Tianling over.
He needed to give Zhang Tianling a chance to make her feel that everything was under control. This was one of the reasons.
Secondly, Zhang Tianling wanted to steal the brainwave coding technology. Coincidentally, Li Chengqian also wanted Zhang Tianling to bring the other things to the Sunset Empire. “Yes, boss.” Zhang Tianling’s voice was nervous, like a junior employee meeting her boss for the first time.
When people get nervous, they tend to make mistakes easily. Zhang Tianling looked nervous. As she was retreating, she accidentally fell and sprained her foot. She was in great pain.
“Ouch.” A painful cry came out of her mouth. Coupled with her pitiful appearance, it was a sight that would melt anyone’s heart.
“Are you alright?” Just as she had expected, Li Chengqian quickly stood up from his seat and came to her side. He asked nervously.
The first rule for a female spy was that if the target was a man, she had to create a reasonable opportunity for the other party to approach her. Only then could she quickly get closer to the target.
The second rule for a female spy was that no man would refuse to help a beautiful woman. They were happy to help beautiful women and would want something in return.
The third rule for a female spy was that any man would be gleeful about taking advantage of a woman.
“Boss, I’m sorry! I’ve caused you trouble.”
Zhang Tianling didn’t forget to maintain her persona. As she apologized, she pulled up her dress to reveal her swollen ankle.
At the same time, her smooth and fair calves were exposed.
“These legs are really not bad. Indeed, she is well endowed.” Li Chengqian sighed in his heart, his face serious.
“You’ve sprained your ankle and it is already swollen. It seems quite serious,” Li Chengqian said with a worried and serious expression. “Can you still walk?”
“This woman, in order to gain my trust, she can actually go to this extent to sprain her ankle. She’s really not simple!” Li Chengqian sighed in his heart and played along with Zhang Tianling’s act.
“Boss, I can walk. You don’t have to worry!” Zhang Tianling tried to be strong and stand up, even though her face was red from the pain, she didn’t say anything.
“Aiyo.” Zhang Tianling tried to take a step forward, but found that she couldn’t stand at all. She let out a scream, and coincidentally fell in Li Chengqian’s direction.
“Looks like you’re seriously injured. You can’t walk by yourself. I’ll send you down.” Li Chengqian naturally had to play along with Zhang Tianling’s performance. He supported Zhang Tianling by holding her body.
Zhang Tianling also took the opportunity to lean into Li Chengqian’s arms. Her face was flushed red, as if she was very shy.
The two of them each had their own ulterior motives. Their cooperation was almost perfect, but their goal was the same. They wanted to gain each other’s trust.
The only difference was that Li Chengqian knew Zhang Tianling’s thoughts, but Zhang Tianling didn’t know Li Chengqian’s ill intentions.
The two of them were trying their best to play along with each other, and their words were all pleasant.
Therefore, when Li Chengqian helped her to the administrative department, the two of them were already very familiar with each other, as if they were old friends who had known each other for many years. After Li Chengqian handed her over to Li Na, she felt even more smug.
“Li Na, take Zhang Tianling to the hospital for a checkup. She sprained her ankle. I think it’s quite serious,” Li Chengqian instructed with a concerned expression.
“Zhang Tianling, there are a lot of things going on in the company recently. I can’t accompany you to the hospital! You also have my number. If you need anything, you can call me.” If you need anything, call me anytime. This sentence shocked Li Na and made her raise her eyebrows! The meaning of this sentence was intriguing!
“Boss, there’s no need. I’ll go myself. There’s no need to trouble Supervisor Li.” Zhang Tianling looked flattered and quickly refused. “It’s alright, you’re an employee of our company. The company will definitely be responsible for you as you got injured while working in the company. Li Na, send her there.” After Li Chengqian finished speaking, he looked reluctant to leave. The two of them looked like a young couple who had just fallen in love and couldn’t bear to part. “Okay, Boss.” Li Na could only agree.
“Girls nowadays are really not simple. It hasn’t even been 20 minutes since I sent Zhang Tianling up, but she actually got into a relationship with the boss. Impressive! This woman is definitely not as simple as she seems. She is so cunning.” Li Na held Zhang Tianling and was secretly shocked. Meanwhile, Li Chengqian had already lost the smile on his face as he walked out of the administration department. His expression was calm, and his eyes peaceful.
He didn’t return to the studio. Instead, rushed towards the small desert.
he It has been five days since he bought the factory! Equipment had also been shipped to the factory truck after truck for installation. Today, all the equipment could be installed. All that was needed was for Li Chengqian to set the parameters of the equipment, burn the PLC program, and install the automated production system.
The experimental production of the brainwave receivers could then be initiated. Coincidentally, the factory he bought this time was not far from the small desert. It was opposite the river.
