Once again at Huixiang Group, Zheng Tingqiang's attitude towards the two underwent a complete 820-degree turn.

He personally brewed a pot of his treasured aged Dahongpao tea for Zhu Bufan and Mi Cai, and Zheng Tingqiang could hardly wait to ask Bufan how he planned to treat him.

"Mr. Zhu, what are your plans now?"

"Well, Mr. Zheng, don't rush. For your condition, I need to prepare. You can start by investigating the goods with our CEO Mi. Once I'm ready, I will start the treatment," Zhu Bufan said.

"Oh, I see! Mr. Zhu, please rest assured, I will start the investigation into your company's matter immediately. What do you need to prepare? Medicinal herbs or medical equipment? Just tell me, how can we let Mr. Zhu handle it personally?" Zheng Tingqiang said.

"Haha, no problem!" Zhu Bufan laughed heartily.

Then he gave Mi Cai a meaningful look.

Mi Cai immediately understood.

"Mr. Zheng, may I know which manager was responsible for receiving the goods this time?" Mi Cai asked.

"This time it was my nephew. I've seen the delivery document myself, and there were a few workers present. They can all testify that your goods were already damp when opened. I'm not sure how you prove that we've received it, but I can tell you, we didn't," Zheng Tingqiang said.

"Oh! Then, may I meet your nephew? I have a few questions to ask him directly!" Mi Cai said.

"That's no problem, but my nephew is currently not in Chongqing City. I have tasked him with handling some business in Suzhou; he left yesterday and is expected back tonight. Once he returns, I'll have him meet you. How does that sound, CEO Mi?" Zheng Tingqiang said.

"Good..."

"Alright, I'll contact him to see what time he arrives tonight," Zheng Tingqiang said as he pulled out his phone to call his nephew.

Now Zheng Tingqiang was seeking help from Zhu Bufan, and even if just for appearances, he felt obligated to follow through completely.

After a while, Zheng Tingqiang hung up the phone.

"My nephew said he should arrive around ten tonight. If you aren't in a rush, I suggest meeting tomorrow morning. However, if you are in a hurry, tonight works as well."

"No worries, tomorrow morning then!" Mi Cai said.

A little later or a little sooner hardly made a difference, as the situation had already occurred.

"Great, then tomorrow morning it is. You two probably haven't had dinner yet! Come, let me treat you..." Zheng Tingqiang said.

Mi Cai initially wanted to postpone.

"Then, I'll trouble you, Mr. Zheng," Zhu Bufan jumped in before she could speak.

"Mr. Zhu, no trouble at all," Zheng Tingqiang chuckled, "Liu, book a table at Jiangxin Hotel for me."

Zheng Tingqiang dialed a number using the phone on his office desk!

"Let's go, let's head there now!" Zheng Tingqiang stood up and said.

"Oh, right, Mr. Zhu, you haven't told me yet, what materials you need..."

"Mr. Zheng, getting anxious, huh! No rush, tonight, I'll write a list for you. Get everything ready as per the list, and once we meet your nephew tomorrow, we'll start your first treatment," Zhu Bufan said.

"Haha, not in a hurry. I'll follow Mr. Zhu's arrangement," Zheng Tingqiang said.

Zheng Tingqiang was more anxious than he let on, but he understood that Zhu Bufan's arrangements were likely based on assessing his nephew's and his own responses tomorrow.

With a sidelong glance at Zhu Bufan, Zheng Tingqiang realized that this somewhat attractive and seemingly unreliable man was actually quite shrewd.

Zheng Tingqiang silently told himself, after dinner, he must personally inquire about the goods incident. If there was a mistake on his side, he would undoubtedly have to give Mi Qi Group a satisfactory explanation.

After the meal, Zhu Bufan and Mi Cai bade Zheng Tingqiang farewell and then headed straight back to the Sheraton Hotel.

Zheng Tingqiang had originally invited them to his private villa, but Zhu Bufan declined.

Back at the Sheraton.

"Bufan, thank you for today..." Mi Cai began.

"What are you saying? What's our relationship? You are my wife, helping my wife is naturally my duty!" Zhu Bufan said playfully.

Bufan knew that Mi Cai was still worried because if the goods issue wasn't with the Huixiang Group, then it must be a problem on their own side.

If it indeed turned out to be their fault, the responsibility would be substantial, and the issue would be complicated.

"Don't worry, wife, we'll know by tomorrow..." Bufan saw Mi Cai frowning and immediately comforted her.

"Bufan, don't call me wife..."

"......"

Bufan was left speechless. One moment Mi Cai was stressed over the goods issue, and the next she was snapping at him. He really didn't understand.

"Alright, I won't call you that... my great CEO Mi," Bufan said helplessly.

"Alright, I'm tired, you go back to your room," Mi Cai said.

"Okay..."

Bufan went back to his room but didn't go to sleep immediately. Instead, he secretly left the Sheraton Hotel.

"Miss Mi, your CEO Mi came to our Huixiang Group to meet our Mr. Zheng today... the things you are doing, I think your CEO will soon find out!" Inside a luxurious office at the Huixiang Group Building, a woman was speaking into her phone.

"Hehe, Secretary Liu, thank you for telling me, but I already know everything, rest assured, you won't have any problems with this matter, as we still have collaborations in the future."

"Good... delighted to cooperate..."

"Mm! Delighted to cooperate..."

The woman hung up the phone, gathered her bag, and walked out of the office.

At this moment, Zhu Bufan had already arrived at the base of the Huixiang Group Building.

He casually lit a cigarette for himself.

After a while, a woman walked out of the Huixiang Group Building, when she saw this woman, a slight smile appeared on Bufan's lips.

The woman did not notice Bufan. She grabbed her bag and fetched her car keys to press the unlock button.

Then she got into her car, started it up, and was about to drive home.

"Secretary Liu, are you heading straight home?" Just then, a voice sounded in her ear.

The woman was startled:

"Who are you? How did you get in my car? You... you are the man from Mi Qi Group who came to our company this afternoon..."
