Bullet marks

Chapter 34: Big Brother in Trouble

Huang Zhipeng always had two mobile phones on him, one of which went three whole years without ringing even once. But Huang Zhipeng's secretary knew that no matter what mistake she made, as long as it wasn't intentional, Huang Zhipeng could forgive her. If she forgot to charge the phone at the bowling alley and it turned off, even if it only lasted a few minutes, she could carry her own file box home just like the two secretaries who had done so well.
That noon, Huang Zhipeng was drunk with two business partners, and as soon as he returned to the office reeking of alcohol, he collapsed onto the bed in the president's office lounge and fell into a deep sleep. His president's secretary, Fiana, took a blanket from the cabinet and draped it over Huang Zhipeng. It was still lunchtime, and as the secretary, she finally had some free time. She sat in the chair in front of Huang Zhipeng, propped her head up, and carefully looked at the man in front of her—the same age as her, but already her direct superior.
She had never met such a young company president before. When she first met Huang Zhipeng, she almost thought he was a department manager from Xiangpeng Group joking or some kind of test. No, at Huang Zhipeng's age, even becoming a department supervisor at Xiangpeng Group would feel a bit too young.
But when he sat at his desk and looked down at Fyanna, she couldn't help but put away all her contempt and doubt, because in this man, there was a kind of persistence that only true strength could offer, even to the point of dominance! From the very start of their conversation, she was involuntarily drawn to his confident and masculine voice. She truly didn't know what had happened to this man, making him so young yet possess an indescribable calm and freedom, accompanied by a terrifying, undeniable pressure.
She has now been by Huang Zhipeng's side for almost a year. Together, they fought in the business world, facing the toughest challenges, sweeping one seemingly invincible enemy after another into their glorious history in the business world. No matter what he faced, this man remained calm and wise, but what amazed Fianna the most was the terrifying network of connections spread across nearly the entire country by this young CEO. When all seemingly impossible projects eventually had to be returned to Huang Zhipeng, perhaps he could solve them with just a phone call.
It is precisely because of so many advantages and advantages that he has rapidly risen in just three years, becoming the leading taxpayer in this city's high-tech development zone.
The longer she spent with Huang Zhipeng, the more curious Feianna became. She knew he came from a prestigious family, considered the son of a high-ranking official. In this city, whenever the princelings mentioned Huang Zhipeng's name, they would show a hint of respect on their faces. It was when he called to ask others for help, his unrestrained and even somewhat commanding tone was arrogant. It seemed that his network of connections across China was not built by his father, but by his own hands, and had already formed an unbreakable alliance, a steel fortress that could withstand any storm!
Fianna wanted to reach out several times. She really wanted to touch Huang Zhipeng's face, as hard as marble, and wondered if it would give her a metallic texture, but she didn't dare. She knew she had developed too much affection for this boss, and if she continued to indulge her feelings like this, it could easily turn into a moth-to-flame suicide.
A young, outstanding man with a vast background and wealth like Huang Zhipeng was definitely not someone a mere secretary to a CEO like herself could afford to provoke.
If she wanted to become his mistress, that would be a separate matter.
But...... Having worked alongside Huang Zhipeng for nearly a year, Fianna had hardly ever met any close female friends with him, let alone any lovers. After attending a banquet, the already slightly tipsy Fiana took advantage of the alcohol to ask Huang Zhipeng about this topic.
"Mr. Huang, you've already been publicly chosen as the city's top diamond bachelor. Girls who want to date you can almost reach the Himalayas. But isn't your standards a bit too high? I think no girl could even catch your eye!"
Huang Zhipeng, who had also drunk a few more drinks due to too many social engagements, undid his silk tie symbolizing politeness and taste, gazed at the dazzling night lights on both sides of the city, and after a long silence, finally whispered, "I don't have time to waste on this!" I must achieve as much as possible before seeing my brother again. I dare not relax even a little, because I don't want to ...... Those left far behind by him can never be partners on the same level! ”
This was the first and only time Fianna heard Huang Zhipeng talk about her friends or family. She could hardly imagine that there was a man in the world more outstanding than Huang Zhipeng, so outstanding that he achieved so much and didn't dare to slack off even a little.
The pleasant ringtone of her phone interrupted Fianna's thoughts. Her eyes swept over and saw Huang Zhipeng's phone ringing in the pocket of his suit hanging on the rack. When Fyanna took out Huang Zhipeng's usual phone, she was surprised to find it still lying quietly, and the pleasant ringtone persistently rang in Huang Zhipeng's jacket pocket.
It was the legendary phone that hadn't rang once in three years...... It rang!
Fianna quickly pulled out Huang Zhipeng's phone that never allowed to stop, which always had to turn on with both ringtone and vibrating during negotiations with the most important partners. For some reason, at that moment, she felt her hands trembling slightly. Because she had an intuition that at this moment, secrets Huang Zhipeng had never known seemed to have opened their doors to her.
It was an ordinary out-of-town number, maybe just from a public phone room, or maybe from a small shop. Fianna shook her head hard, and only when she was sure she had regained her composure did she press the answer button.
Fianna cleared her throat and said, "Hello, I'm ......."
Her words were interrupted almost rudely, and the other person only said five words: "I'm looking for Huang Zhipeng!" ”
Fiana's eyes twitched uncontrollably. Just five words sent a chill through the other end of the phone that made all her hair stand on end.
After a long time, Fyanna finally had the chance to understand that it was a creature's instinctive fear and avoidance when facing death. She almost instinctively said, "Sorry, President Huang is drunk and resting right now. Could you leave your contact number? Once he wakes up, I'll pass on your number......"
Fyanna's words were rudely interrupted by the other party, "Go wake him up!" ”
"Huh?"
Fianna's beautiful eyes widened. She had never met someone so arrogant and brazen before, but for some reason, his voice carried an undeniable toughness and pride. In a commanding tone, he said, "You have thirty seconds. Go wake him up!" ”
Fianna bit her lip and stared at Huang Zhipeng, who was lying on the bed like a child sleeping soundly. After much thought, she grabbed a bottle of mineral water and poured all the water over Huang Zhipeng's head.
"Yawn!" Huang Zhipeng was woken up by the douse, his eyes still open, and he groggily called out, "Boss, I was wrong. Please let me go, why are you still doing this!" ”
When Huang Zhipeng finally opened his eyes and saw that the person standing before him was his secretary, Fiana, he shouted in shock and anger, "What are you doing?!" ”
Feiana carefully handed the mobile phone in her hand to Huang Zhipeng. "Your call." ”
"Pah! What kind of phone call is worth you dousing water to wake me up? If there's anything going on, why don't you make an appointment for me first......" Huang Zhipeng's voice suddenly stopped. He snatched the phone from Fiana's hand and shouted wildly, "Big brother!" ”
Fianna had never seen Huang Zhipeng so excited, even childish, before. His face darkened as he asked, "Who are you?" How do you know my phone number?! ”
Fyanna couldn't make out what he was saying, but Huang Zhipeng's expression grew heavier. "Alright, I understand, I understand, yes!" No matter which train you take, the person I sent to pick you up will definitely be stationed at the station exit the whole time! ”
Huang Zhipeng opened his safe and carefully took out a small phone book. He said to Fyanna, "Go help me cancel all social engagements this week, notify the company department supervisor, and cancel all company meetings for the week. Daily work will be decided by them!" Once the notification is done, come over and help me make the call! ”
That small phone book recorded the contact information of 123 people. Fyanna was surprised to find that it was actually the contact information for a company, and at the very top of the list was a company commander named "Zhanxia Ge"! Perhaps out of respect for the company commander, the first page of this phone book only listed an official position and a name, without leaving any phone numbers.
Opening the second page, Fianna saw Huang Zhipeng's name and looked at him in surprise. The first name on the second page was the company instructor...... Huang Zhipeng!
It turned out that her direct superior, the city's most famous entrepreneur, had actually served in the military and even managed to become a company instructor.
That afternoon, Fianna and Huang Zhipeng kept dialing phone numbers. Some of these numbers Fianna had seen before, and Huang Zhipeng dialed them, effortlessly solving the company's problems in foreign trade and supply, making the whole company seem like a rocket booster, soaring at an astonishing speed.
All afternoon, Fianna kept saying the same thing: "If the company commander is in trouble, return to the unit immediately within fifteen hours and report to the company instructor!" ”
With no secretary and no phone transfer, Fianna truly suspected that everyone answering the phone was like Huang Zhipeng, carrying a mysterious number that wouldn't ring for years but was always on 24/7, never allowing any pause.
Everyone who answered the phone was either lively, calm, mischievous, or quirky, but their voices carried a pressure and flamboyance cultivated over a long period. Yet when they heard Fyanna's words, they didn't waste words and answered most often: "Yes, understood!" Guaranteed to return to the team on time! ”
The next morning, Huang Zhipeng personally stood in front of the company's reception hall. That day, he took off his designer suit and strangely changed into a camouflage suit that was a bit tattered and without epaulettes. He was like a javelin fixed firmly in the hall, allowing company employees passing by, and even customers who saluted him, to turn back and sneak strange glances at him.
At nine in the morning, a luxury sports car priced at at least 1.5 million yuan in the Chinese market, covered in travel dust, rushed into the parking lot in front of the Xiangpeng Group building. The security guard and receptionist at the door widened their eyes, eager to see which prince was arriving. When the young man in the same tattered camouflage outfit arrived, he jumped out of the car.
Facing this young man rushing into the hall, Huang Zhipeng opened his arms and gave him a passionate hug.
"Tao Tai!"
