Chapter 582: Chapter 297 Xue Melts into Water Chapter 582: Chapter 297 Xue Melts into Water Due to the company’s limited size, the Mortals Co., Ltd. rest area was no more than twenty square meters, equivalent to a bedroom.
However, the facilities inside were quite complete.
The decor was simple, with stools, a dining table, a water dispenser, a fridge, a microwave…
Three girls stood in one corner of the rest area, forming a perfect triangle.
Each face wore a different smile.
Next to them, Wang Ning swallowed hard, dazzled by the three differently styled but equally beautiful women.
Even with the filters of a first love and a school beauty, he had to admit that this Lin Muxue was really pretty.
The main thing was her height; she must have been around 173 cm, and with high heels, she was almost as tall as he was.
With her delicate facial features, heavy makeup, and fashionably sexy office lady outfit, she looked alluring and elegant.
Damn it! Tang Song, the bastard!
Of course, School Beauty Shen wasn’t any less impressive.
Standing at 168 cm with a business-style outfit and an upright, confident demeanor, she was no less striking in front of Lin Muxue.
Wang Ning couldn’t tell if it was just his imagination, but he felt the atmosphere between the two was somewhat odd.
Could this be an unconscious competition between beauties?
“Hehe, thank you very much for Xue’s concern and kindness,” Shen Yuyan said sincerely, “I’m very happy to have the opportunity to have lunch with such elite talents as you, and I’m looking forward to it, so please help me order a portion too.”
Lin Muxue raised her eyebrows.
It was just as she had guessed; this Shen Yuyan was far more savvy than her bestie.
Her speech was watertight, making her a bit challenging to deal with.
Just as she was about to speak,
Shen Yuyan actively grabbed her arm, saying with a smile, “Oh right, since you guys are doing a group meal, there must be some reimbursement standards and limits.
If you can’t decide on this, I can go over later and ask Tang Song myself.
We agreed a few days ago to have dinner together in Yan City and talk about financing; lunch today sounds perfect.
Of course, If your company’s rules are strict, I can always pay for myself.”
Watching the fleeting slyness in Shen Yuyan’s eyes, Lin Muxue pursed her rosy lips.
She deeply realized that her opponent was not of low caliber.
“It’s just a lunch; of course, I can decide,” Lin Muxue said, looking at Xu Qing, “And even for Qingqing’s sake, I wouldn’t have you pay.”
“Thank you, Xue,” Xu Qing said, her large dark eyes blinking.
She hadn’t expected to have such sway.
At the same time, she found it odd that Lin Muxue’s attitude towards her had not been the same at their last meeting.
Why had she suddenly become like best friends?
Was it because of Yanyan’s presence?
Shen Yuyan spoke in her normal tone, “Then thank you, Xue. When you’re free, I will treat you to a meal on my own.”
“Sure, let’s add each other on WeChat and keep in touch when we have time.”
“Yeah, I’m actually quite curious about the financial industry, and I really want to get to know outstanding friends like you.” Shen Yuyan took out her phone to scan and add her as a friend, her face bright with a fresh smile.
That was true; in over two years of starting her own business, she had constantly been working to expand her social network.
However, you can’t get in touch with some things unless you reach a certain level yourself.
Lately, Lu Ziming and other classmates had taken her to attend some banquets and club activities, but she had not been given much attention, nor had she been able to truly integrate.
Of course, what thrilled her the most was undoubtedly Tang Song.
The 20 million investment, the temperament he displayed, and the due diligence team he brought with him sparked her curiosity.
Listening to the three women chat, Wang Ning repeatedly wanted to interject but held back, his face turning red.
Hey, hey, hey! There’s someone else here, don’t you see?
Why isn’t anyone asking me?
Yanyan, we came out together, didn’t we?
What about me? Where do I eat lunch?
“Alright, I have to get back to work, let’s talk more later.”
Lin Muxue gracefully waved her hand, the Vacheron Constantin on her wrist glittering.
Her long, straight legs moved lightly, her grey pencil skirt hugging her lower body, perfectly displaying her waist and hip curves.
The click of her heels on the floor resonated with a crisp and rhythmic sound.
Wang Ning was completely dazzled.
He had never encountered such a charming woman in real life.
If she and the school beauty were both chasing him, he really wouldn’t know how to choose.
Damn that Tang Song, that damn dog!
When the rest area returned to quiet,
Shen Yuyan patted her bestie and asked earnestly, “Qingqing, do you still have that business card Xue gave you earlier? Is it still with you?”
“Uh… I’ll go look for it.” Xu Qing hurriedly ran back to her desk, wiggling.
She grabbed her handbag from the desk, rummaged through it, and pulled out the beautifully crafted card from a compartment.
She wasn’t in the habit of organizing her bag; the business card had been in there for half a month.
Returning to the rest area,
Shen Yuyan took the card, looked it over, the gold embossed letters elegantly etched onto the matte black background.
[Slover (HK) Trust Committee, Senior Assistant, Lin Muxue…]
Xu Qing explained on the side, “The Trust Committee is like the company’s top-level body, similar to the board of directors. This assistant position isn’t simple; it’s equivalent to a middle to high-level management.”
As a legal professional, she had dealt with some banking and trust clients and had a certain understanding of these matters.
Gently feeling the card in her hand, Shen Yuyan looked up and inquired, “Have you looked into this company? What’s their background? Is the due diligence team from this company?”
