Chapter 634 Loyal Xiaojing, Bai Yueguang’s strange movements
Building T5, No. 1, Shencheng Bay.
Liu Qingning slowly slumped down on the sofa, holding the warm [Green Bag Gourd] on her chest tightly in her hand, as if all her strength had been drained from her whole body.
Last night, she almost stayed up all night.
Just lying on the bed, thinking about every detail of the meeting with Su Yu over and over again in the dark.
Su Yu’s face is so perfect that it’s unreal, her seemingly gentle but hidden words are sharp, and that dazzling photo of Tang Song and Jin Meixiao standing together.
Jealousy, fear, and a deep sense of betrayal boiled inside her, creating a storm she could barely control.
She knew that the predecessor of Smile Holdings started in the second half of 2016, when they had just entered their freshman year.
Tang Song and Jin Meixiao have known each other since that time.
And we have worked together in such a close way for so many years.
She is no stranger to Jin Meixiao, and can even be said to know it very well. Earlier, she got it from various financial reports and internal information.
Later, she entered Qing Ning Technology, and her understanding became more in-depth.
The other person is also a so-called "genius girl". She comes from a well-known family, studied in an Ivy League school, and has a double degree from Harvard. She is able to make waves in the international financial market before she is twenty years old.
And what about her?
She is just a "question maker" who came from a small town.
With talent and hard work, I was admitted to Teito University, participated in the entrepreneurship competition, started my life carefully, and worked hard to climb up.
No matter from which dimension, Jin Meixiao is like the "perfect evolution" of herself.
She—cannot compete with it at all.
That’s why she said the word "break up" in the early morning video.
It’s not a test or a joke.
But she really wanted to give it a try.
She wanted to force herself into such a result to see if she could bear it.
She is an extremely decisive person who is accustomed to mathematics and programming. She always tries to solve problems in the most rational way, even if this way will cause severe pain.
But when such a scene actually happened, she realized that she couldn't bear it at all.
In the past, the two were just ambiguous friends. Their feelings were restrained and buried deeply, and she could still stay awake.
But when they really became a couple, when the emotions that had been accumulated for more than ten years erupted like a volcano.
She has long been trapped in it and cannot extricate herself.
If she really lets go this time, it means that she will lose to the Jin Meixiao who appears out of nowhere, and to the dazzling Su Yu.
It also means that she will lose him forever.
Therefore, she could only use a lame joke to cover up her failed "stress test".
The sky outside the window gradually glowed with morning light.
"Miss Qing Ning, breakfast is ready. Do you think you should eat it now?"
At some point, the voice of the nanny Aunt Mei came, interrupting her thoughts.
Liu Qingning came back to her senses, shook her head blankly, and said in a hoarse voice: "I have no appetite now, and I don't want to eat."
"Are you feeling unwell? You look very bad." Aunt Mei came over with concern, "Would you like me to contact your personal doctor?"
"It's okay, I just didn't sleep well last night."
Liu Qingning stood up and walked straight towards the bedroom.
Return to the room.
She didn’t turn on the light, she just walked to the bed and sat down.
After a long time, I took out my mobile phone and opened QQ space.
In the photo album, photos bearing the mark of the times lie there quietly.
He is present in almost most of them.
Playground, classrooms, dormitories, groves, canteens—
She just looked at it, her eyes moistened again, and tears rolled down one by one.
After a long time, she slowly closed her eyes.
It’s like I’m back to my carefree teenage years again.
I don’t know how much time passed, but when she opened her eyes again, all the fragility and sadness in her eyes had faded.
Instead, there was a cold flame.
She walked into the bathroom and let the cold water wash down from her head.
Then, go back to the bed and close the curtains.
Forced myself to sleep.
When she woke up again, it was already past ten in the morning.
The sun was shining through the cracks in the curtains, casting a bright spot on the ground.
She walked to the living room and said to Aunt Mei, who was cleaning, "Aunt Mei, I'm hungry."
Aunt Mei was stunned for a moment, and her face immediately showed relief and surprise, and she quickly put down her work.
"Oh, what do you want to eat? I'll do it right away!"
"No need to bother, Aunt Mei. Just reheat the morning porridge and snacks. I'm very hungry."
"Okay, please wait a moment." Aunt Mei immediately nodded in agreement, turned around and entered the kitchen, getting busy quickly.
Soon, plates of exquisite and sumptuous breakfast were served again.
Finished breakfast quickly.
Liu Qingning came to the study and sat at the desk.
First, I turned on my computer and calmly entered keywords such as "Smile Holdings", "Jin Meixiao", "Tang Yi Precision", "Tang Jin Family Office" in the search box.
Reorganized all the public information that could be found.
Then he picked up the phone and slid his fingertips on the screen.
Found a contact and dialed it directly.
The call was quickly connected.
"Hey! Mr. Liu!"
"Lili, is it convenient to talk now?"
"Wait a moment -" There was a burst of rapid footsteps and suppressed breathing from the receiver. After more than ten seconds, Huo Lili whispered anxiously. : "Mr. Liu, do you have any business with me?"
"Lili, do you still have plans to change jobs now?"
"Yes, of course I do. Mr. Liu, I don't have many friends here in Shencheng. In fact, I have always wanted to continue working with you!"
"That's just right. There is a position here at Qing Ning Technology now, which is very suitable for you. You can compile a latest resume and send it to me."
"Ah! Okay, I'll get it right away! Thank you, Mr. Liu! Thank you so much. Thank you! "
"You're welcome, I brought you to Shencheng myself, so I am naturally responsible for you."
After hanging up the phone, her fingertips didn't pause at all.
Huo Lili is an old employee she personally recruited from the Imperial Capital and brought to Shencheng.
I have tactfully stated many times before that I hope I can continue to follow her after she leaves Century Intelligence.
But at that time, Liu Qingning had just landed in [Qingmi A1] and was a new arrival. She only hoped to achieve results to prove herself to Tang Song and others.
If you hurriedly "form cliques" and set up new companies, it will definitely be regarded as a lack of distinction between public and private affairs by those who are interested in it, and it will destroy the stability of the company's original team.
But now, the situation is different.
She immediately dialed the second number, Li Ziying.
The moment the call was connected, the seriousness on her face faded and was replaced by a relaxed smile that belonged to best friends.
"Hello? Ziying, where have you been looking cool recently?"
"I have just arrived in Sydney for two days, and I am in a daze here at the Opera House. What's wrong with my busy man?"
Li Ziying is her core entrepreneurial partner at Century Intelligence. She is responsible for the data business and has extremely strong capabilities.
After cashing out with her, we started traveling around the world.
"Ziying, have you had enough fun?" Liu Qingning's tone was a bit teasing, "I remember that you have always wanted to study the application of AIGC in the business field, right? Qingmi AI, set up a new Are you interested in coming over and working alongside me?" On the other end of the phone, there was a few seconds of silence and rapid breathing from Li Ziying.
"Hello? Shuangshuang, didn't you say before that you wanted to be recruited from Tang Yi Precision to [Xuanji Guangjie] internally, but you don't have enough qualifications?"
"Now, the opportunity has come. You should submit the internal transfer application now, and I will figure out a way for the rest."
< br>"Are you polite to me? I have always looked forward to the fact that we can really work together on a project."
"Hang up, bye."
The calls were made one after another.
Liu Qingning always had a smile on her face and spoke to her former colleagues and classmates who had good relationships and strong abilities.
Before meeting Su Yu and revealing the truth, although she knew that Qing Ning Technology was co-founded by Tang and Song Dynasty, she subconsciously believed that she was more like a "professional manager" or "representative" who was entrusted with important tasks.
But now, with her intelligence and IQ, she has naturally connected all the clues.
This company was created in the Tang and Song Dynasties from beginning to end.
And it is specially named after "lime", the meaning is self-evident.
This should be the most extreme romance in the world.
But behind this romance, Su Yu and Jin Meixiao are also involved—
Those hopelessly powerful love rivals that she cannot defeat.
Since I can’t let go of the relationship that lasted for twelve years, since I can’t retreat to the starting point where I can pretend that nothing happened.
Then we can only rush forward.
She must take the initiative to seize the position that should belong to her and defend the glory named after her.
Imperial Capital.
Smile Holdings Headquarters, VIP reception room on the top floor.
Xiaojing sat on the soft sofa, her hands placed neatly on her knees, her back straight, like a primary school student waiting to be called on by the teacher.
In those big and smart eyes, there is tension, anxiety, shame—
And a trace of morbid excitement.
There was a knock on the door of the reception room.
Immediately afterwards, Shangguan Qiuya's figure walked in, "Xiaojing, Director Jin has finished his work, I will take you there.
"Oh, oh! Thank you, Sister Shangguan."
Xiaojing stood up quickly, straightened her clothes against the glass window, and then followed Shangguan Qiuya out.
In order to give Director Kim a better impression today, she specially changed into "Director Kim's outfit",
The light gray suit jacket, silk shirt, skirt, stockings, nude high heels and even the hairstyle are all imitated.
Walking through that familiar, busy corridor.
Came outside the executive director’s office.
"Dong dong dong one" Shangguan Qiuya knocked on the door gently.
"Come in."
A cold and echoing female voice came from inside. The tone was calm, but it made people tighten their shoulders involuntarily.
"I'll wait for you outside." Shangguan Qiuya turned around and gave Xiaojing a meaningful look, then turned around and blended into the light and shadow of the corridor.
Xiaojing’s throat rolled unconsciously, and she slowly pushed open the door.
This is the second time she has stepped into Director Jin's "god's realm".
But it was different from the last time. At that time, she came to participate in training as an "employee" with potential.
And now, as a "new concubine" who knew a shocking secret, she came to "meet" the real "emperor of the palace."
It is still the familiar, calm and luxurious office.
The air is filled with a light aroma of white tea, elegant and restrained, just like Director Kim himself.
Sunlight shines through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows, reflecting the magnificent city skyline outside the window.
She stood in the center of the office.
He has a tall figure, sharp shoulder lines, slender and strong waist, and smooth hip curves, as if they were made by a sculptor.
Unlike last time, who was dignified and capable, Director Kim today looks more "lifelike".
She was wearing a loose silk shirt with a slightly open collar, revealing her delicate collarbone.
Her thick brown hair was randomly tied behind her head, with a few strands of broken hair hanging down on both sides of her face, adding a soft touch to her beautiful face.
Those eyes as clear as springs fell quietly on Xiaojing.
It’s not threatening, but it makes people’s hearts tighten.
Xiaojing’s eyes drooped slightly, not daring to look at her.
0_0
【How scary! This is definitely the Empress Hancock bursting out with "overlordly domineering energy"! I feel like I will be petrified by her sweet fruit in the next second, and then I will be severely suppressed! 】
She blushed slightly and bowed respectfully: "Hello, Director Jin-Jin, it's a pleasure to see you again."
"Hello, Xiaojing." Secretary Jin's voice was gentle, with a clear sense of propriety, "I heard from Shangguan, do you want to talk to me about something?"
"Well, yes."
"Sit."
The two sat opposite each other, with a wisp of tea mist rising between the white porcelain teacups. .
Xiaojing puffed up her chest and silently recited the words Tang Song had given her.
Then he mustered up the courage, raised his head, and clearly stated his personal intention to join [Deju Renhe].
Smile Holdings is not only a shareholder of Tang Yi Precision, but also a major shareholder of Deju Renhe. Her personal personnel relationship is with Smile Holdings.
This “job-hopping” is actually more like a reasonable internal transfer.
Secretary Jin listened unhurriedly, without interrupting or echoing.
It wasn’t until she finished speaking that she smiled faintly and asked like a casual chat: "You should know that Zheng Qiudong’s team is composed of top consultants from McKinsey and Bain. What do you think is your advantage over them?"
Xiaojing’s expression was stunned for a moment, and she was a little unresponsive.
Nani! (0ωOn)!
This is different from the script!
She thought it would be a beating from "the palace versus the concubine", but why did it suddenly turn into a serious HR interview? !
When it comes to professional abilities, even if ten of them are tied together, they are not as good as those real elites from De Ju Ren He!
But the problem is—she, Xiaojing, came through the back door!
When Tang Song arranged this matter, he also made it clear that she did not need to be involved in actual business -
Secretary Jin did not speak, and his clear eyes seemed to be able to understand everything.
She naturally exudes a breathtaking absolute tranquility that belongs to the top of power.
Under the huge pressure, Xiaojing’s mind was spinning rapidly, and she finally said with some unconfidence: "In my position at Tangyi Precision HRBD, I am mainly responsible for talent strategy and organizational development. In this During the process, I deeply realized the importance of high-end talents to the group's ecology, and also accumulated some experience in cross-department coordination."
The more she spoke, the softer her voice became. She felt that this reason was too far-fetched.
"Really?" Secretary Jin interrupted her gently, "As far as I know, your biggest achievement at Tang Yi Precision is the successful promotion of the two projects of 'Afternoon Coffee Break Variety Optimization' and 'Office Pet Friendly Day'. This is indeed very 'creative'."
"I-this-"
Xiaojing's cheeks turned red immediately.
【It’s over! Sure enough, he was bullied by the main palace! Director Kim is not going to spank me, is he? ! 】
【How scary! Lord Tang and Song, please save me! 】
She raised her head and looked at Director Jin’s beautiful face and the “manga hand” that was completely different from the Tang and Song Dynasties
Trembling with fear.
(mω0
Seemingly aware of her distraction, Secretary Jin’s tone was still calm, but with a hint of undeniable pressure:
"Reassignments within the group are never random. Xiaojing, think about it again, you will be there by yourself. What are the real advantages? ”
Looking at the powerful, confident and aggressive Empress in front of her, she looked at the other person’s eyes that seemed to penetrate people’s hearts.
An idea flashed through Xiaojing’s smart little head, and she seemed to finally understand the real question of this “interview”.
She stood up quickly, bent down and said, "I think my biggest advantage is that I understand your needs, Director Jin, better than they do, and I am more loyal!"
Only then did Secretary Jin's eyebrows really relax, and a slight smile appeared in his eyes.
She stood up, walked to Xiaojing, stretched out her hand to caress the folds of her collar, her movements were natural like sisters who have known each other for many years.
“Very good. From now on, you must report to me the things around you as soon as possible.”
[Ahhh, I was touched! This hand is so gentle and fragrant—]
"Okay—Okay, I understand, Director Jin."
"If it's in private, you can call me 'Sister Smile'."
"—Sister Smile."
"Wait for me." Secretary Jin chuckled lightly and walked to the desk. From the drawer, he took out a small blue gift box with exquisite packaging and handed it to her, "I didn't give you a gift for your birthday last week, so this is considered as compensation."
"Thank you Jin-Smile Sister." Xiaojing quickly took it with both hands, her face flushed with excitement.
【Wow! Is this a palace fight? It feels—it feels even more exciting than in the anime! I actually survived! And—he also received a reward from the Empress! (7)】
【Will I be able to play with Director Kim in the future? Hehehe~】
When she was thinking wildly.
Secretary Jin stretched out his perfect "comic hand" and took her hand, "Sit down and tell me about you and Tang and Song."
Xiaojing felt the warm and delicate jade-like touch in her hand, and her eyes were so excited that her eyes were shining.
As a professional hand controller, she couldn’t refuse at all, and even couldn’t help but squeeze back slightly.
Secretary Jin frowned and said nothing.
The two sat down on the sofa again.
While feeling Director Jin’s hand, Xiaojing shyly talked about the “little stories” between herself and the Tang and Song Dynasties.
At the same time, he couldn’t help but look down at his breasts with guilt.
There was a miniature recording device stuffed there, and the heat it was emitting at all times made her heart tremble.
(.人.)
This was a "task" given to her by the Tang and Song Dynasties. It was said that it was to preserve the evidence and facilitate "review and study" in the future.
But she always felt that this was more like a manifestation of the perverted bad taste of the Tang and Song Dynasty adults.
Now, on the surface, I have become Director Jin's "dog", but secretly, I am still absolutely loyal to listen to Master Tang and Song's orders.
It’s like a legendary “master’s mission”.
I wonder if the Tang and Song lords will intensify their efforts if this mission is successfully completed.
Let her go to the "wilderness", "silent street", "office*" -
Or do something more perverted and shameful.
When she thought of this, Xiaojing couldn't help but pinch her legs wrapped in stockings, and her cheeks became sickly flushed.
11 o’clock in the morning.
The office door was knocked gently again.
Shangguan Qiuya pushed the door in, came to the desk, and reported in a low voice:
"Director Jin, Tian Jing has left."
Shangguan Qiuya's expression instantly became serious, "Exactly as you predicted, Liu Qingning took the initiative to contact Yingxue, and she put forward a number of personnel transfer suggestions for Qingning Technology.
In addition, she hoped that Yingxue would help her friend Liu Shuang from Tang Yi Precision compete for employment in the [Xuanji Light World] project team.
Yingxue followed your instructions completely, cooperated with her temptation, and agreed to her request. ”
“Very good.”
Secretary Jin slowly stood up and walked to the huge floor-to-ceiling window, looking down at the chessboard-like cityscape below.
The plump lips evoke a perfect arc.
After a moment of silence, she spoke again: "You can contact Professor Wang. Qing Ning is still too young and needs her teacher to help."
Shangguan Qiuya immediately bowed and responded: "Okay, received."
Looking at Director Jin’s breathtakingly beautiful back, Shangguan Qiuya felt strong awe and admiration in her heart.
She has been with Director Jin for seven years and witnessed with her own eyes how she arranged everything step by step.
First, he cleverly arranged for the highly respected Professor Wang Chang of Imperial University to get to know Liu Qingning as a "mentor".
He took her to participate in competitions, encouraged her to start a business, and subtly guided her every step of her growth, and accurately grasped all her thoughts.
Later, he advocated moving the headquarters of [Qing Ning Technology] from the imperial capital to the distant Shen City to promote closer cooperation with [Tang Yi Precision].
And now, through the project [Xuanji Light World], the two have officially had an in-depth intersection at the business level.
Every step is carefully considered and interconnected.
Director Kim once said that Liu Qingning is very similar to her at the core.
Pride, intelligence, rationality, and a competitive spirit rooted in the bone marrow that will never give up until the goal is achieved.
Now, the once proud "Bai Yueguang" has passively accepted Mr. Tang's "passionateness", and his heart is filled with unwillingness and a sense of crisis.
Such a person, after being greatly stimulated and given enough power, will definitely explode with energy beyond imagination.
Compared to Tian Jing who just wants to be a "salted fish", Liu Qingning is the most suitable person to fight for the control of [Tang Yi Precision]. Shangguan Qiuya knows Director Jin's worries and fears.
Ms. Ouyang’s background is too complicated. She had a marriage and a huge family behind her.
No one can guarantee that this powerful "ally" will not remarry in the future or bring other people or their descendants into the core of the [Tang Jin Family Office].
Even if she no longer has children, she still has a huge "kinship" force behind her.
With the other party’s influence and [Tang Yi Precision]’s current strategic position, the future will ultimately be a huge hidden danger.
Appropriate weakening is something that must be done, but it cannot really anger Ms. Ouyang. Liu Qingning is the best candidate>
