54 You Still Want to Talk About This At This Time?

Cheng Lang chuckled and carried Xing Shu towards the bathroom. “Are you sure you still want to talk about this at this time?”

Xing Shu bit her lip. She was a little afraid of this ambiguous relationship led by Cheng Lang. Jiang Yao was right. Cheng Lang was too superior. His slight gentleness was enough to charm her off her pants.

“President Cheng, you brought me here on a business trip. Of course, I have to do my job and obtain all the information. AN Group and Cheng Corporation Group are not related in many businesses. The only area of collaboration with Cheng Corporation Group is logistics. Is Cheng Corporation Group going to put the company’s products on it? If that’s the case, we can use AN Group’s logistics system to save a lot of costs.” Cheng Lang had already placed her on the basin. In front of her was a one-meter diameter mirror that reflected their faces.

Xing Shu closed her eyes in shock after taking a look. She could not stand such stimulation! She closed her eyes and said, “Or I’m wrong. Cheng Corporation Group doesn’t want to collaborate with AN Group’s logistics. The latest information shows that AN Group is interested in building the most advanced unmanned supermarket, and the core value of the unmanned supermarket is sensors that cover the ceiling of the entire store. This requires artificial intelligence technology. Cheng Corporation Group happens to have top-notch technology and technicians. President Cheng, you’re far-sighted. Two years ago, you approved funds for the R&D of sensors. Now, you can sell this project to AN Group. AN Group has the most complete storage and logistics system, but its business map doesn’t include artificial intelligence research.”

Echoes reverberated in the bathroom. No matter how much she tried to keep it down, moans escaped from her lips. She was embarrassed and could not bear it. The corners of Xing Shu’s eyes were red, and she raised her neck… However, Cheng Lang suddenly stopped. He pinched her chin. “Continue.”

Xing Shu gathered all her strength and tried her best to maintain cognizance. However, her voice became intermittent amid the thrusts. “Unmanned supermarket… The initial research and development cost… Whether it’s artificial intelligence or… machine learning, big data… Cheng Corporation Group is better than… than AN Group. If Cheng Corporation Group can sell this system to AN Group… they can…”

Cheng Lang asked, “Can what?”

Xing Shu was speechless. She was already in such a state, but he was still pressing her relentlessly. He seemed to delight in seeing her in the throes of passion. He was very evil.

Xing Shu gave in. The corners of her eyes turned wet, and she scratched Cheng Lang’s arm unwillingly and resentfully. If there were two sins in this world, Cheng Lang with his clothes on was one; and him with his clothes off was the other. Xing Shu watched herself fall in clarity. She recalled Jiang Yao’s words. She could use one night to have Cheng Lang, but she had to spend the rest of her life trying to forget him. It was too painful, but he was Cheng Lang.

When Xing Shu turned on her cell phone the next morning, there were many missed calls—from the Xing family, Cheng Xingyang and Chen Ru. As for the messages that filled the screen, she deleted all of them with nary a glance.

Xing Shu washed up briefly and went to the living room of the manor. Cheng Lang had already left and would probably be back at night. Although she had already memorized all the research data, Xing Shu still wanted to go to the AN Group building to experience the feel of the North American conglomerate. After all, a person’s experience is limited by one’s vision and vision limits one’s ability. She needed to experience it for herself to understand the charm of those conglomerates. For example, Wall Street—which was not far from here—was the dream of everyone in the financial industry. It was the area with the highest employment density in the world. More than 2,000 financial institutions and 400,000 financial players gathered in one square kilometer. Just thinking about it made Xing Shu excited.

However, this trip did not go smoothly. Xing Shu was just a little into her trip when it started raining heavily. She sought shelter at the bus stop and saw thick dark clouds hanging in the sky. There were ear-piercing honkings everywhere, and her visibility decreased.

Xing Shu lowered her head to check the route and decided to take a remote shortcut. Just as she approached the alley, Xing Shu heard two gunshots. At the same time, the shop sign not far away was blown by the strong wind and clanged, masking the gunshots.

Xing Shu stopped in her tracks and did not move forward. This was a foreign country with the right to bear arms. It would be a death wish to approach rashly. She was about to turn around when a cold hand reached over. She was pressed against the moldy wall in the next second.
