Zhou Cheng, what gives you the right to look down on me!
Zhou Cheng was working leisurely at the Police Station; compared to the life of a corporate slave in his previous life, it was no exaggeration to say that his life in this one was like living in heaven!
In front of his Heavenly Eye, no one could be perfect!
Even if the male and Female Protagonists with the Protagonist Halo dared to provoke him, he could accumulate police force value and then exchange it for evidence to get them arrested!
Of course, he couldn't be too complacent either; the Protagonist Halo of the male and Female Protagonists was too powerful. If he were to be killed by the script, that would be disgusting.
...
After work, Zhou Cheng changed his clothes and then walked towards the parking lot.
Zhao Yier followed Zhou Cheng.
"Brother Zhou Cheng, why don't you come to my place tonight to watch Animal World? Also, let me tell you, my cat can even do backflips now." Zhao Yier invited Zhou Cheng softly.
Hearing this, Zhou Cheng rubbed his forehead. Had this girl been watching too many skits on Douyin?
"I've been a bit busy lately."
But then he thought, refusing was fine, but if he refused too frequently, it might cause the other party to turn dark, which would be counterproductive.
So he added:
"Next week, when I have time, I'll treat you to a movie!"
Zhao Yier was a bit unhappy when she first heard Zhou Cheng refuse again.
But upon hearing that Zhou Cheng actually said they would watch a movie together next week, she immediately recovered, her eyes curving into crescents, and she nodded with a smile.
"No problem. Which day exactly? I'll buy the tickets in advance."
"We'll see. You don't need to buy the tickets; I'll handle it." Zhou Cheng replied. If he let her buy the tickets, it would likely be a romance movie.
...
Driving all the way, he arrived at the manor steadily.
Just as he got out of the car, the servants in the manor smiled and greeted him.
Clearly, Zhou Cheng's arrest this morning had been very effective!
Uncle Chen came up to meet him and said:
"Second Young Master, the car has been cleaned."
"Hmm." Zhou Cheng nodded.
He would just drive away tonight; there was no point in living in this manor for now.
He would come back to live here after dealing with that mother and son, Su Fang.
"Also, today, the Master was very Life Qi; he spent the whole day fishing outside!"
"Oh, he didn't catch a single fish, did he? That has nothing to do with me." Zhou Cheng replied casually.
Hearing this, Uncle Chen felt a bit helpless. He realized that this Second Young Master of his family was truly not afraid of Qi-ing the Master to death!
"Also, the Eldest Young Master called me to say that the Master plans to hold a Board of Directors meeting next Tuesday to announce the appointment of Zhou Mu as the CEO of the Group!"
"The Eldest Young Master said he won't be attending, and all matters will be handled by you!"
"Got it. I'll take a day off then." Zhou Cheng replied.
It just so happened that Zhou Cheng was looking for a time to announce the news that he owned 48% of the shares, so this day would be perfect.
As for Zhou Mu becoming CEO, that was absolutely impossible.
Uncle Chen frowned upon hearing this.
He had thought that Zhou Feiyu would be the one to stop this, but he didn't expect the Eldest Young Master not to participate and instead let the Second Young Master handle it. Could this really work?
"Also, regarding the Chen Family, Second Young Master, your grandfather said he hopes you will call from time to time; he cares about you very much." Uncle Chen added.
This made Zhou Cheng more serious.
The Chen Family, his mother's family, was a Beijing elite family a tier above the Zhou Family!
Although his grandfather only held 5% of the shares in total, when added to his own 48%, it would exceed 50%!
Therefore, if he wanted absolute control over the Chenyang Group, he couldn't do without his grandfather's help.
"I know." Zhou Cheng nodded.
"Also, your grandfather said your fiancée will be returning to the country."
"This..." Zhou Cheng frowned.
More of this???
"What fiancée?"
"The one arranged for you when the Matriarch was still around; she is a Young Miss from the Beijing Zhong Family." Uncle Chen said.
Ugh... he knew this world wouldn't let him off easily.
Whatever, he'd deal with it later.
"Oh."
Zhou Cheng nodded and then brought up the matter of Zhou Wanyu.
He told Uncle Chen to emphasize a few more things to Zhou Wanyu's driver and try to keep an eye on her. Of course, if Zhou Wanyu insisted on acting recklessly, let her be.
After all, she was his Previous Self's biological younger sister; he would save her if he could!
If she was truly love-brained, then there was nothing he could do.
He had tried his best.
"Understood, I will emphasize it to her." Uncle Chen nodded.
The family had specifically hired a female driver and personal assistant for Zhou Wanyu; with her there, it should be enough to handle some of the problems in Zhou Wanyu's daily life.
...
Zhou Cheng took the car keys from Uncle Chen and then brought along the share transfer agreement from his room.
Then he went out, intending to return to the house he usually lived in.
Just as he reached the garage, he happened to run into Zhou Mu, who was returning.
He was dressed in a suit and leather shoes, with a look of joy on his face.
Today, Zhou Yuanbo had finally relented. After the announcement next Tuesday, he would be the highest decision-maker of the Group!
And from then on, the future of the Group would be his!
Zhou Cheng saw Zhou Mu, and Zhou Mu also saw Zhou Cheng!
"Zhou Cheng, Father plans to announce next Tuesday that I will become the CEO of the Chenyang Group!" Zhou Mu said, full of ambition.
Hearing this, Zhou Cheng's face remained completely calm.
He opened his Heavenly Eye to take a look.
[Zhou Mu: Job-related embezzlement, misappropriation of funds, bribery, etc. Exchange police force value: 100,000!]
The required police force value was quite high.
Looks like this kid can continue to jump around a bit longer.
"Then I really must congratulate you?" Zhou Cheng looked at Zhou Mu with a half-smile, as if he were looking at a clown.
This expression made Zhou Mu feel fully looked down upon.
But Zhou Cheng didn't wait for him to continue speaking; he opened the car door, started the engine, and left!
Zhou Mu watched Zhou Cheng's car leave and cursed loudly.
"Zhou Cheng! What right do you have to look down on me?!"
Zhou Mu looked resentfully at the rear of Zhou Cheng's car. He had been bullied for days, and he had endured it for too long.
...
In the morning, the sun rose, and the temperature climbed.
After Zhou Cheng arrived at the Police Station, he soon saw Director Li bringing Deputy Director Lu into the station.
"Director Lu, this is Zhou Cheng! It was he who, after joining our station, has repeatedly performed meritorious services, catching wanted fugitives, arresting illegal lawyers, and the night before last, it was also he who rushed a pregnant woman to the hospital, saving two lives and rescuing a family!"
Director Li introduced Zhou Cheng to Deputy Director Lu enthusiastically.
Deputy Director Lu was equally enthusiastic, wearing a warm smile on his face that made people feel like they were basking in the spring sun.
"You don't need to introduce him; I've been constantly seeing this young man's videos online lately."
"He is truly a talent in our police force, adding luster to our image!" Deputy Director Lu praised Zhou Cheng with a chuckle.
To this, Zhou Cheng smiled modestly and replied: "This is all part of my duty."
Shortly after, the man from the night before last arrived with a silk banner.
They went straight to the procedure!
Zhou Cheng accepted the silk banner, took photos and videos for a Group shot, and then did the publicity!
But this silk banner, what the hell is with the four words "pregnancy preservation expert" written on it?
We are presenting a silk banner to a police officer; be serious!
Zhou Cheng hadn't expected this, let alone Deputy Director Lu; they were truly between laughter and tears.
After the formal procedure was completed, Director Li accompanied Deputy Director Lu to inspect the various tasks of the station.
As for Zhou Cheng, he held the silk banner in one hand and an envelope in the other.
He weighed it; it wasn't much, just about ten thousand yuan!
"Young man, this is a small token of my gratitude. That night I dirtied your car, and it was thanks to your intervention that my wife and child were saved."
The man said sincerely.
But Zhou Cheng casually stuffed the money back to him.
"Are you insulting me?"
Zhou Cheng wasn't making a meme; he really wasn't.
He had a net worth of over 100 billion, and someone was stuffing 10,000 yuan into his hand, right in the Police Station, in front of so many colleagues.
"No... I'm really thanking you; just consider it car wash money."
"No need." Zhou Cheng shook his head.
Then he took out a large red envelope from his pocket!
And handed it to the man.
"Although your child wasn't born in my car, it was close enough. I'm just looking for a bit of good luck; this is a red envelope for the child!"
In Zhou Cheng's previous life, some people minded if someone else's child was born in their home or car, while others believed that a child's birth was a joyous occasion, and if it happened in their home, they would even give a small red envelope.
Zhou Cheng's custom in his previous life was the latter, so when he learned yesterday that the pregnant woman's family would be coming to thank him today, he had specially prepared a red envelope.
"There's a bank card inside. It's not much, just 100,000 yuan. The password is six nines." Zhou Cheng said casually.
And when Zhou Cheng's words fell.
The man's hand holding Zhou Cheng's red envelope began to tremble.
