Magnate Tycoon: How Did Simply Enjoying Life Make Me a Male God?-Chapter 429 - 341: Night on the Ship_2

However, in Zhu Zheng’s words, it turned into a situation where he owed Li Jing a favor instead.

Interpersonal relationships often start with owing each other favors.

Seeing that he couldn’t get Li Jing to owe him a favor, Zhu Zheng took the initiative to "owe" Li Jing a favor.

This way of handling things is both natural and unlikely to cause resentment, showcasing Zhu Zheng’s smooth and seasoned way of handling matters.

Li Jing could naturally see that Zhu Zheng wanted to befriend him. Despite the short time they had known each other, Zhu Zheng had already arranged everything meticulously, which did not make him feel uncomfortable. So, he said:

"There is no such thing as owing favors or not in this matter. It’s mainly to thank Boss Zhu for the help. If Boss Zhu ever needs my help in the future, feel free to ask."

Li Jing’s words not only gave face to Zhu Zheng but also served as a form of feedback.

Although his words were somewhat diplomatic because he did not have any businesses in Hai City, and it was unlikely that Zhu Zheng could ask for any significant help in the short term, maybe just small connections between various families.

Li Jing primarily wanted to express his satisfaction and acknowledgment of Zhu Zheng through this sentence.

Sure enough, Zhu Zheng’s eyes lit up upon hearing Li Jing’s words, and he quickly said:

"Oh, President Li, you are too kind. How could I dare to trouble you? But if there are any good opportunities in the future, or if I have any resources here, I will definitely share them with President Li.

Everyone is out here to live a better life. When there’s a chance in the future, let’s have some fun together, and President Li, you can reach out to me anytime."

As he spoke, he took the opportunity to take out his phone and said with a smile, "President Li, how about we exchange contact information?"

After adding Li Jing’s contact information, Zhu Zheng was quite satisfied as this friendship had yielded results.

Then he turned to Zhou Yingying and Little Fox with even more courtesy and sincerely said, "It was indeed my mismanagement that made you suffer from Nuannuan and Long Er.

If you ever need anything in terms of new media traction or any other help, feel free to come to Brother Zhu.

Especially you, Little Fox, I heard that you aren’t in good health. If you need any introductions to hospitals, you can also come to me.

I won’t claim much else, but I do have a lot of friends. Long Er and Nuannuan are not well-intentioned, and I will discuss it with other directors of the association.

They certainly won’t be able to stay in the association. Don’t worry, if they dare to trouble you again, I will stand up for you."

Zhou Yingying and Little Fox repeatedly thanked him upon hearing this.

While expressing their gratitude, Zhou Yingying’s gaze occasionally fell on Li Jing beside her.

She understood internally that Zhu Zheng’s drastic change in attitude toward her was largely due to Li Jing.

As evening approached, Zhu Zheng personally called over the ship’s head chef to carefully arrange a luxurious Western dinner for the four of them.

After everyone had eaten and drunk to their heart’s content, Zhu Zheng generously upgraded the accommodations of Li Jing, Zhou Yingying, and Little Fox.

This accommodation was a high-end luxury suite located on the 4th deck of the cruise ship, the only suite of its kind on the entire ship.

Initially, Zhu Zheng planned to arrange this suite for Chen Ziteng, but since there was only one top suite on the ship, he was unsure how to allocate it when he first met Li Jing.

Therefore, he subtly suggested that Chen Ziteng disembark at the next port, which gave Chen a dignified way out and made subsequent arrangements easier for himself.

The suite had three bedrooms. Although Zhu Zheng stated that the three of them should each occupy one bedroom, he knew that these three bedrooms, while independent, were all within the same suite, leaving room for unpredictable occurrences.

Of course, he wouldn’t express these thoughts aloud and merely ensured that everything was meticulously arranged for Li Jing, including assigning a dedicated butler for service and preparing various sweet pastries.

It must be said that Zhu Zheng was very conscientious in terms of service, and it’s no wonder he could build his business from scratch, amass such a wealth of resources, and eventually gain the recognition and meeting with city leaders.

As night slowly fell, Little Fox, due to health reasons, went to her bedroom to rest earlier.

Meanwhile, Li Jing stood on the observation balcony of the suite, leisurely appreciating the night view of the sea.

At this moment, the sea was vast and peaceful, shrouded in the inky night, with the skyline of Hai City appearing particularly enchanting in the dark, its scattered lights resembling stars, reflecting against the shimmering sea.

The sea breeze carried a slightly salty and moist aroma, refreshing and invigorating.

Right then, a slight sound reached his ears, prompting Li Jing to turn his head. He saw Zhou Yingying approaching with a bottle of red wine and two glasses.

Her expression was respectful yet slightly smiling, as she softly asked Li Jing, "Brother Jing, I see you are here alone. May I accompany you?"

Li Jing raised an eyebrow, scanning her up and down.

Zhou Yingying appeared to have just finished freshening up, having changed out of her daytime clothes into a spaghetti-strap nightgown, her makeup now more understated.

Though the nightgown was of an ordinary design, its neckline was low, leaving her bosom starkly visible, and the dress was short, revealing a swath of pale skin, sparking unlimited imagination about the hidden parts.

This time, Zhou Yingying’s attitude toward Li Jing had distinctly changed from mere flattery and accommodation, imbued with more warmth and gratitude after today’s events.
