The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 1336: Chapter 517: The Assistant Forced to Be Promoted

When she arrived at the underground garage, the female driver named Wu Lingling quickly stepped forward to open the car door for Jiang Qingkui, but Jiang Qingkui frowned slightly when she saw the car that had been driven over.

”Why... is it this car?”

Wu Lingling was a bit at a loss, not knowing what was wrong with the car in front of her, but Xu Lingyue pondered for a moment and vaguely understood what she meant, quickly stepping forward to quietly inquire something from Wu Lingling.

Then Xu Lingyue came to Jiang Qingkui’s side and softly explained, ”She said that last night when she went to Sister Cherry to report, it was Sister Cherry who asked her to drive this car over...”

Miao Ying?

Jiang Qingkui was initially stunned, then she understood that Miao Ying wouldn’t make such a decision on her own, meaning this was Zhou Wang’s intention.

Jiang Qingkui felt inexplicably uneasy.

The Parthenon-style grille stood like an imperial crown at the front of the car, and the platinum-crafted goddess emblem swirled in the light and shadow with a silent declaration.

The elongated sedan quietly parked in the garage was exactly the Rolls-Royce Black Phantom that Zhou Wang had used at the charity dinner.

The custom-made body exuded understated luxury, and just by resting there amidst the various luxury cars, it stood out distinctly.

With the group newly established, matters like vehicle procurement weren’t fully settled. Since there was already a driver, it seemed reasonable for Zhou Wang to pick a car from his own collection for Jiang Qingkui to use first.

But, why this particular car?

Zhou Wang’s choice to ride it to the charity dinner had already bestowed it with a different significance.

Recollecting some of Zhou Wang’s recent unusual actions, like handing over major decisions that required his attention to her and Xu Wenqian, it seemed as though on the day of the company’s establishment, he was instead taking a hands-off approach...

Or, perhaps she was just overthinking it?

Many thoughts flashed through Jiang Qingkui’s mind, and she ultimately resolved to ask Zhou Wang for an explanation when she saw him later.

”Let’s go.”

In the end, Jiang Qingkui bent down and entered the rear seat of the Phantom, and Xu Lingyue quickly opened the co-driver’s door and got in as well. The vehicle slowly started and left the garage.

...

Amidst the cool morning mist, while most second and third-tier cities were not yet ’awake,’ the international metropolis of Magic City seemed like a geared mechanism, quickly resuming high-speed operation after a brief lull.

At the second phase of the International Gold Center located in the core area, it’s just around eight in the morning, but already bustling with people. Countless people rushed about, lining up early in the lobby to get to the elevators as soon as possible.

Even though the total number of service elevators and passenger elevators in the second phase of the International Gold Center exceeds an astonishing 40, given the scale of companies located here and the enormous number of personnel, it’s still not enough during peak morning and evening times.

Most employees new to working here have suffered the experience of arriving on time but being late because they couldn’t get on an elevator...

Click-clack!

The sound of high heels striking the polished marble floor instantly drew a lot of attention in the queued-up lobby.

According to the experience of many seasoned office workers, only two types of people dare to wear high heels and walk confidently in a place like the International Gold Center—

Executives from major corporations, or... beautiful women who are exceedingly confident in their appearance and temperament.

Sure enough, as many men’s eyes turned, they immediately lit up.

A perfectly tailored Chanel suit, black stockings, stiletto heels, and the new LV seasonal handbag, complemented by exquisite makeup, plus the curvaceous figure, made this woman walking in high heels at least score above seven in terms of attractiveness, qualifying as a ’goddess’ in their eyes.

Feeling the many gazes on herself, the woman with bright gloss lips couldn’t help but reveal a slightly restrained smile, though she still tried to suppress it to avoid ruining her current aloof image.

”Mengqi?”

At this moment, a slightly surprised voice came from the side.

Du Mengqi paused and turned her head to see that the one who called her was a woman in work attire in the middle of the queue.

”Oh, it’s Xiaoyan. Morning.”

Du Mengqi smiled indifferently and greeted her.

The woman named Xiaoyan seemed to feel the implied arrogance in Du Mengqi’s smile, feeling increasingly annoyed. After sizing up Du Mengqi’s unusually bold makeup and outfit, she couldn’t help but mockingly smile and say:

”Mengqi, it’s only ten minutes to eight-thirty, you’re almost missing the clock-in time, how can you still stroll in the lobby, aren’t you showing off your outfit? And I remember Vice President Sun repeatedly instructed us not to wear short skirts and stockings to work, you’re completely ignoring her, huh...”

The woman seemed gleefully malicious, unsure of why Du Mengqi would dare to openly challenge the conservative elder woman.

Just as Du Mengqi was about to say something, she noticed a stern-looking middle-aged woman walking past in a hurry accompanied by an assistant from not far away.

She curved her lips and suddenly called out loudly, ”Mr. Sun!”

The middle-aged woman stopped, frowned, and looked over. When she saw that it was Du Mengqi who called her, Mr. Sun was taken aback, then turned and walked over.
