The Strongest Master Venturing Urban-Chapter 713: Big Shot

Zha Qiuling was completely terrified and hastily changed the subject.

"Honey, can you help me out at the Imperial Capital's international fashion week next month?"

Chen Bin knew that the fashion week was on a grand scale, with major international brands appearing one after another.

Although Zha Qiuling's work had some recognition, it was still far off compared to those big brands.

"I can invite some big-name celebrities to wear your designs for the show. But after helping with this, how do you plan to repay me?"

With a slight frown, Zha Qiuling looked a bit puzzled.

"I'm already yours, what more do you want?"

"It's nothing, I was just joking with you. Following me well in the future is the best repayment to me. As for your career, I think, with just the two of us, we can't create an international brand in a short time."

"What should I do then?"

"Many big brands are built with money. As long as you have enough capital, your brand will quickly grow strong."

After pondering, Zha Qiuling slowly nodded, thinking this explanation made sense.

"But I don't have much money, nor do I know any big boss. What should I do?"

"Don't worry, I can introduce a benefactor to you at that time."

As he finished speaking, Chen Bin kissed Zha Qiuling's pink lips again.

After they indulged in each other's company, they finally got out of the bathtub.

After bathing, Chen Bin picked up Zha Qiuling again, placed her on the bed, and then slowly fell asleep.

On the day of "Dragon Head Raising Day," Chen Bin received a call from Xu Shaoyang.

"Brother-in-law, I'm going to Tianhai tomorrow. Come pick me up."

Xu Shaoyang was Xu Ruoxuan's younger brother. Although Chen Bin didn't contact him often, their relationship was still pretty good. 𝐟𝗿𝐞𝚎𝚠𝐞𝚋𝕟𝐨𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝕔𝕠𝚖

"Sure, I'll arrange a dinner gathering beforehand to welcome you."

"I'll arrive around ten thirty, and there'll be others with me by then."

"Who? Your wife?"

"No, anyway, it's a big shot. You'll know when you meet tomorrow."

This made Chen Bin a bit puzzled. He couldn't figure out how big the "big shot" Xu Shaoyang referred to could be.

The next day, Chen Bin specifically went to Tianhai Airport to pick up Xu Shaoyang.

Following Xu Shaoyang was a young man wearing glasses, looking gentle and well-mannered.

After they met, Xu Shaoyang quickly introduced, saying,

"This is Minister Chen Bin. His name is Cheng Kai, my good buddy, also the son of Secretary Cheng from the Provincial Committee."

This surprised Chen Bin suddenly.

He quickly assessed Cheng Kai, noticing he indeed resembled Cheng Liusha a bit.

Cheng Kai proactively reached out to greet him, "Minister Chen, it's truly an honor to meet you today."

Chen Bin also shook hands with Cheng Kai, "So you are Secretary Cheng's son, but he rarely mentions you."

"I used to work in the Beautiful Country and seldom came back home. My dad's busy with work, so it's normal for him to forget about me."

At this point, Xu Shaoyang chimed in, "Cheng Kai is really impressive. His starting salary in the Beautiful Country was 1.5 million. Wow, I've never saved up that much Huaxia Coin yet."

Cheng Kai modestly waved it off, "Our work nature is different, so it can't be compared. Plus, I'm back now, aren't I?"

Chen Bin asked: "You're not planning to go to the Beautiful Country anymore?"

"Exactly, I discovered the domestic market has great potential, and I'm planning to start an internet company here."

After chatting a bit more, Chen Bin took the two to the Radio and Television International Hotel.

After ordering the dishes, they started discussing Yanxi TV's popular programs.

Cheng Kai spoke first, "During my time abroad, I particularly enjoyed watching Yanxi Station's programs."

Chen Bin nodded and smiled.

"I got to know Secretary Cheng all because of those shows on our station."

"Indeed, Yanxi Station not only has great programs, but the hosts are also excellent. Especially Wu Jie, she doesn't appear very old but handles hosting with ease."

Seeing that Cheng Kai was quite interested in program matters, Chen Bin explained how Wu Jie handled the situation when she was tasked with a crucial role.

Cheng Kai listened intently and even shared several personal insights regarding Wu Jie's hosting style.

Clearly, he really liked watching Wu Jie's programs.

After the meal, Chen Bin and Xu Shaoyang accompanied Cheng Kai to the Provincial Committee Family Courtyard.

Cheng Kai wanted to invite them in for a bit, but they politely declined.

Back in the car, Xu Shaoyang grinned slyly as if taking credit.

"So, does Cheng Kai count as a big shot?"

"Yeah, why don't you stay in Tianhai for a few more days so I can show my gratitude."

"No need for thanks. I just have a good relationship with Cheng Kai and found that he's quite interested in your station's programs, so I introduced you. I have things to attend to; I'm flying to the Imperial Capital in the afternoon."

"Alright, I'll see you off."

Again, Chen Bin drove Xu Shaoyang to Tianhai Airport.

Before leaving work in the evening, he got a call from Cheng Kai.

"Minister Chen, do you have time? I'd like to treat you to dinner."

Originally, Chen Bin didn't feel like accepting the invitation, but out of respect for Cheng Liusha, he agreed.

After work, Chen Bin drove to the restaurant Cheng Kai had pre-booked.

During the meal, Cheng Kai said,

"Minister Chen, after my dad knew we met, he praised you all afternoon. He told me to get close to you because I can learn a lot."

Chen Bin, of course, didn't take this kind of formal flattery seriously, smiling as he replied.

"Thanks for Secretary Cheng's praise. I'll certainly work harder from now on."

When the dinner was about to end, Cheng Kai suddenly asked,

"Minister Chen, how well do you know Wu Jie?"

This confused Chen Bin a bit, "What kind of aspect are you asking about?"

"I mean her relationship status. Does she have a boyfriend?"

Upon hearing this, Chen Bin felt a "thud" in his heart.

He immediately asked back: "Aren't you married?"

Scratching his head, Cheng Kai seemed a bit embarrassed.

"I was, but then divorced. Not that I'm afraid Minister Chen will laugh at me, but I actually returned this time mainly to pursue Wu Jie. If you can help bring us together, it'll be great."

Damn!!

At this moment, Chen Bin was almost infuriated to the point of bursting.

Cheng Liusha just stole Lu Cailian, and now his son is targeting Wu Jie.

Were this father and son planning this in advance?

Despite his extreme displeasure, Chen Bin didn't show it.

He merely smiled and said, "Sure, I'll arrange a meeting for the two of you when there's a chance."

Cheng Kai was genuinely excited to hear this, promptly raising his glass with a smile.

"Minister Chen, I sincerely thank you. A toast to you!"

Chen Bin smiled as he lifted his glass to clink with the other, "No need to be polite. However, I'm only responsible for introducing you. Whether you can win her over is up to you."

After the meal, when parting with Cheng Kai, Chen Bin was left feeling depressed.

He didn't know how to handle this matter for a moment.

After pondering, Chen Bin decided to use Cheng Kai to test Wu Jie's feelings for himself.

If Wu Jie genuinely loves him, under no circumstances would he give her away like Lu Cailian.

But if she is wavering, then he might as well use the opportunity to strengthen ties with Cheng Liusha…
