Treasure Hunt: Tycoon's Priceless Runaway Wife-Chapter 694 - 692: The Younger Generation Is Fearsome (Fourth Update)
"How do you know? Did she tell you?"
Da Bao shook his head, "No, she didn’t tell me, my relationship with her is not that close!"
Da Bao straightened up, put his arm around Yin Zhihao’s shoulder, and said meaningfully.
"Zhihao, let me tell you, she didn’t intern here because she wanted to work with you, but because she likes me!"
Doing something like stabbing your friend’s heart isn’t what Da Bao would usually do. So, he didn’t really want to say these words because there’s nothing glorious about doing something that harms others without benefiting oneself.
But he couldn’t just watch his friend being used by such a woman over and over again.
A true friend isn’t the one who calls you pretty every day and praises you for being smart all the time.
Quite the opposite, a true friend is the one who dares to pour a bucket of cold water over your head when everyone else is praising you.
But obviously, Yin Zhihao didn’t thoroughly understand this definition of friendship yet.
He stared at Da Bao with disbelief, his nostrils flaring with anger as he breathed heavily.
"Ji Yu, don’t joke about this kind of thing, it’s not funny at all!" he said angrily, propping his elbow up to push Da Bao off him.
Da Bao let go, shifted a bit to create a distance between them. Sometimes, being too close to someone can actually make things unclear; maintaining an appropriate distance can make things clearer.
"Zhihao, I’m not joking, she likes me! Since middle school until now. Of course, I’m not sure if her liking for me is genuine, but I can be sure she has no interest in you at all!"
Da Bao said this with a serious face, having already prepared himself for his impulsive friend to possibly punch him, so he was in a state of high alert.
Yin Zhihao suddenly stood up, angrily pointing at Da Bao and shouting.
"Ji Yu, that’s enough, does it feel satisfying to step on me? I know you’re a genius, you’re handsome, smart, rich, you’re the Crown Prince, and a lot of girls like you. But are you maybe being a bit too narcissistic? Do you really think every girl likes you? Yu Xin is not the kind of person you think she is! Sorry, it’s my mistake for being too sentimental and always treating you as my best friend!"
After shouting, Yin Zhihao lifted his foot and slammed it into the coffee table, sending the lunch boxes and chopsticks scattering all over the floor.
"Zhihao! Calm down and listen to me!" Da Bao also raised his voice, trying to stop the furious Yin Zhihao, and stood up reaching out to grab his wrist.
Yin Zhihao forcefully shook off Da Bao’s hand, "Listen to my ass! You’re a hypocrite, disgusting as hell!"
After cursing, he stormed out without looking back.
Da Bao stood in the doorway but didn’t chase after him because it was already late, and making noise in the corridor would disturb the rest of the other employees in the apartment.
Moreover, Yin Zhihao was blinded by anger, and even if he chased after him, they wouldn’t be able to talk.
Da Bao turned back and closed the door, the room was a mess with the smell of food everywhere, seeming like he wouldn’t be able to sleep tonight. But it was so late, it wouldn’t be considerate to call the cleaning auntie, and he was really tired himself!
Da Bao sighed helplessly, quickly changed clothes, grabbed his keys and wallet, and left the apartment, checking into a suite at the hotel across the street for the night.
The next day, Da Bao had breakfast outside as usual, returned to the company, asked the receptionist to find a cleaning auntie to clean up his room, and then went to his office to work.
As usual, there were many things waiting to be dealt with, and Yin Zhihao’s matter was quickly pushed to the back of Da Bao’s mind.
At noon, Zhong Hao walked in with Da Bao’s lunch in one hand and a big stack of documents in the other.
"Young Master Yu, you have half an hour for lunch, we’re going to the Cultural Bureau afterward."
Da Bao was a bit puzzled, "Cultural Bureau? Didn’t we submit the application last week? By today, it should be the fifth working day, we should have a result, right?"
"Yes, this morning they called me saying the documents were incomplete and were returned as is. I’ve reorganized them according to their requirements, it’s going to be a hassle for you to go with me this afternoon because they said the responsible person must be there in person."
"Alright, then give me twenty minutes."
Da Bao and Zhong Hao spent the afternoon outside, and finally, there was a breakthrough. After briefly reviewing the materials, the other party gave a definite answer that once the materials were approved, they could issue the approval letter.
Zhong Hao drove Da Bao back to the company, and Da Bao, sitting in the passenger seat, closed his eyes to rest all the way.
Actually, for this approval document, if the Ji Group headquarters applied, it would save a lot of trouble, and naturally avoid these unwarranted setbacks.
But Da Bao insisted on applying under Huagang’s name; Zhong Hao thought on the one hand that this Crown Prince was idle, but on the other, he admired his spirit.
To be honest, when he was first asked to work with this young kid, if it weren’t for Le Tong’s sake, he wouldn’t have agreed.
However, after two or three years of fighting side by side, as the territory they built together gradually expanded, Zhong Hao’s attitude towards this Crown Prince changed from initial doubt and disdain to admiration and awe.
Whenever evaluating his boss in front of others, he had only four words to say: "The young are formidable!"
The car drove into the underground parking lot, and Da Bao finally opened his eyes.
"Young Master Yu, I forgot to tell you something just now because I was too busy."
"Mm, what is it?" Da Bao unbuckled his seatbelt, turned, and looked at Zhong Hao.
"The people from the design department said Zhihao didn’t come to work today and didn’t take leave. When they called him, his phone was turned off. Could it be that he went back to school for something urgent?"
In Zhong Hao’s impression, both Yin Zhihao and Ren Weiqi were very reliable people, so if they suddenly missed work, there must be a reason, or they might have informed Da Bao beforehand.
Da Bao slightly frowned, got out of the car, and only after entering the elevator did he say to Zhong Hao, "Uncle Hao, please help him apply for two days of leave."
Zhong Hao agreed and did not mention this matter again.
They exited the elevator one after the other, with Zhong Hao heading to the design department, and Da Bao walking to his own office.
Da Bao carefully recalled last night’s event; had he really been too harsh?
While Da Bao’s mind was still contemplating Yin Zhihao’s situation, he opened the door and immediately heard a very familiar voice, "Da Bao, you’re finally back!"
Then, he was hugged tightly by the person.
"Hey, let go of me! Who was it calling me disgusting yesterday? Not disgusted now? Hugging me so tight?!"
Da Bao, with disdain, pushed the person away without even glancing at him, walked straight behind his desk, and sat down.
