Shedding Her Multiple Identities, the Fake Daughter Bullies Rascals Novel - Chapter 36

Chapter 36: Chen Jia As The Assistant

A wet feeling came from Mu Qiannian’s earlobe.

Pei Mingchen had actually held her earlobe just now, and…

He even sucked on it!!

Pei Mingchen looked at her retreating with an incredulous expression, and he calmed down himself.

Once again, Pei Mingchen pulled Mu Qiannian into his embrace and leaned his entire body into Mu Qiannian’s embrace, seeking a sense of peace.

Mu Qiannian was still embarrassed by Pei Mingchen’s actions just now.

However, when she remembered that he was currently in a bad mood, she had no choice but to like a quiet pillow.

After a long while, Mu Qiannian maintained her posture and her body began to feel numb.. She reached out and pushed him away.

Pei Mingchen moaned in dissatisfaction. Mu Qiannian had no choice but to be ruthless and stand up to exercise a little.

After stretching her muscles and bones, she sat down and asked, “Did grandpa say something?”

Pei Mingchen nodded and pounced on her again, hugging her tightly.

“Grandpa told me not to be in the limelight and not to walk in front of Chen Jia.”

Mu Qiannian exploded when she heard that. “How can he say that?!”

She frowned. “Chen Jia is a piece of sh*t who can’t help himself. You’re better than him to begin with. Without the help of the Chen family, you’ve used your own ability to walk in front of him. Grandpa is really biased.”

Pei Mingchen nodded and said softly, “I have never thought of competing with Chen Jia. I just want grandfather’s approval. That’s all.”

Hearing his words, Mu Qiannian felt extremely uncomfortable.

Mu Qiannian really wanted to tell Pei Mingchen that he did not need anyone’s approval. He just needed to be himself.

However, she understood that the only warmth he had received since he was young was from Old Master Chen.

Therefore, this was perhaps the only belief he had held on to and why he did not leave the Chen family.

That night, Mu Qiannian arranged for Eighth Brother to use the hidden connections under the Mu Group’s name to contact the Chen family and specifically asked for a partnership with Pei Mingchen.

Old Master Chen looked at the company’s report and had other intentions in his heart.

When Chen Jia returned, Old Master Chen said at the dining table, “The company received a partnership invitation today. You and Pei Mingchen will handle it together and have him assist from the side.”

Chen Jia’s hand that was holding the bowl paused. A look of unwillingness flashed across his face. “They have pointed out his name and asked him to do it. If I go in and interfere, I will be laughed at to death.”

Chen Jia did not want to fight with an illegitimate child. In the end, everything would belong to him.

Old Master Chen’s face darkened. “This is a collaboration for the Chen Group and not Pei Mingchen alone. You are now the acting manager of the company. It is such a big collaboration. How can you hand it over to a project manager?”

Chen Jia was silent. Bai Jin, who was at the side, rolled her eyes and a glint flashed across her eyes.

“Son, grandfather is also doing this for your own good. It’s time for you to slowly take over the company’s matters. Moreover, such a huge collaboration will be of great help to your foothold in the company.”

Chen Jia felt extremely uncomfortable in his heart, but in the end, he could not resist Grandfather Chen and Bai Jin’s persuasion.

The next day, Chen Jia braced himself and entered Pei Mingchen’s and the group’s meeting room.

Looking at Chen Jia who suddenly appeared, Pei Mingchen understood.

Pei Mingchen instructed his assistant to give Chen Jia a copy of the information, and the meeting began.

“The cooperation plan has been finalized for the time being. Lil Wang will print out a few copies of the refined proposal later. In the afternoon, I need to discuss with the other party’s project leader for the first time.”

Chen Jia lightly tapped the table and casually said, “I’ll be there too. Prepare an extra copy for me.”

Lil Wang paused for a moment, then nodded without waiting for Pei Mingchen’s instructions.

After all, Chen Jia was the company’s acting manager, and he would still be the company’s general manager in the future. Lil Wang could not afford to offend Chen Jia.

Pei Mingchen did not mind. He returned to the office and focused on organizing the information that he would need in the afternoon.

In the afternoon at the Upper Island Cafe, the project manager sent by the company across from him was very young. He spoke with humor and wit. They were all young people, so the conversation was much smoother.

Chen Jia wanted to interrupt him a few times, but the other party deliberately interrupt Chen Jia whenever Chen Jia tried to speak.

Chen Jia watched as Pei Mingchen talked with the other party with confidence, but deliberately left him aside as if he was air.

Chen Jia would be a fool if he could not sense it anymore. He stood up angrily, glared at the other party and Pei Mingchen, and then left.

At this moment, Pei Mingchen chuckled and asked, “I wonder what you mean by this?”

If Pei Mingchen could not sense that something was wrong again, then he would really be stupid.

The other party was obviously rejecting Chen Jia’s participation, so what exactly was going on?

The other party laughed heartily, his expression was natural. “Manager Pei, don’t think too much about it. It’s just that I’ve heard a little about Young Master Chen some time ago. I don’t want to associate myself with this person, that’s all.”

Pei Mingchen stared into his smiling eyes. He did not see anything else, so he could only believe it.

That night, Pei Mingchen received a call from Old Master Chen at Mu Qiannian’s hotel.

Old Master Chen’s angry voice came from the other end of the phone. “What exactly are you trying to do? You actually have the ability to join forces with other companies to embarrass Chen Jia?!”

Pei Mingchen was silent. The other end of the phone seemed to have turned to another person.

Chen Desheng’s voice came from the other end. “Did you give the person-in-charge of the other party some benefits? Did you deliberately let the other party target Chen Jia?”

Listening to the questioning on the other end of the phone, Pei Mingchen’s mood was very calm.

His tone was neither fast nor slow. “I didn’t do anything. I have no right to interfere with what other people do.”

Chen Jia’s curses came from the other end. Pei Mingchen did not care what he said.

Pei Mingchen said to Old Master Chen on the other end of the phone, “If you suspect that I used any means, I have nothing to say. It’s just that the other party specifically asked me to follow up on this project. If Chen Jia interferes rashly, the other party might give up on our cooperation, but…”

Of course, Old Master Chen would not let go of such a big cooperation easily. He suppressed the anger and doubt in his heart and asked, “But what?”

Pei Mingchen said, “If Chen Jia wants to join this project, I won’t have any complaints. It’s just that he has to be the assistant and listen to my work arrangements the whole time.”

“Impossible! Absolutely impossible!”

Chen Jia’s angry roar came from the other side. The grievance today was like a slap on his face.

He would rather not accept this cooperation than see Pei Mingchen be so arrogant.

He was the acting manager of the Chen Corporation. How could he be the assistant of a small project manager?

Did Pei Mingchen think that with this big cooperation, he could take the opportunity to climb over Chen Jia’s head?

Pei Mingchen was just an illegitimate child who could not be seen in public. What wishful thinking!

Pei Mingchen’s indifferent voice sounded. “If he isn’t willing, then please don’t force me anymore. You can think whatever you want. At worst, I’ll just submit my resignation application on my own accord.”

Old Master Chen was stunned and quickly said, “Wait.”
