The Wealthy Tycoon's Game of Life

Chapter 1434: Chapter 561: What Does He Mean! (2)

Although she had been complaining about Zhou Wang in her heart, at this moment, she still couldn’t help but consider Zhou Wang’s perspective.

If it weren’t for Zhou Wang saying not to go overboard, Qi Jiayi might have wanted to add a few more stringent clauses...

Because money and career planning were still not everything Zhou Wang was offering them.

As both girls were digesting the contents Qi Jiayi had previously spoken about, and feeling internally shaken, Qi Jiayi spoke again.

”What I just mentioned was the first part of the agreement, and the second part follows.”

There’s a second part?

Sun Xining was lost in thoughts and still fine, while Lisa opened her mouth slightly and exclaimed ”Ah.”

”Simply put, Miss Lisa, once you sign this agreement, you will have the right to reside in ’Yantian·Tianlu’ C02 courtyard, until the agreement ends.”

Qi Jiayi didn’t keep them in suspense and stated directly.

C02 courtyard?

Lisa was stunned, because if she remembered correctly, this was precisely the French villa they were currently in!

Originally, she could enter here only because Zhou Wang was staying the night. Once Zhou Wang left, she certainly couldn’t stay here anymore.

But now, according to this lawyer, even after Zhou Wang leaves, she can continue to live in this villa worth over a hundred million?

Lisa was first overjoyed, but then immediately felt worried.

Though she hadn’t lived in a house like this, she knew how expensive it was to maintain. Apart from cleaning the indoor area, the surrounding large garden alone would cost a fortune to upkeep.

However, Qi Jiayi seemed to see through her concerns and casually said:

”During your stay, all maintenance expenses will be borne by Mr. Zhou...”

Lisa was truly excited, almost screaming.

”Additionally, you both can purchase your own private cars, with expenses covered by Mr. Zhou. The car purchase limit is specified in the agreement, which you can check yourself later.”

At this moment, Sun Xining seemed to finally come to her senses, and she looked at Qi Jiayi with a hesitant expression.

Because Qi Jiayi only mentioned Lisa could live here, what about her?

It’s quite laughable actually, ten minutes ago she was thinking about breaking ties with Zhou Wang, but now she’s being anxious about gains and losses.

”Your residence is not here, because the assets on that side haven’t been dealt with, so I didn’t specify it in the agreement.”

Qi Jiayi also guessed what Sun Xining was thinking, and when mentioning this, her eyes showed a moment of complexity.

Even though it’s just residency rights, if it’s that house, young girl, you’ve hit the jackpot...

”Ah, where is it?”

Ignorantly, Sun Xining simply asked.

”Specifically it’s not confirmed yet, but I can give you a heads up, it might be on Hong Kong Island...”

Feeling that Sun Xining was considerably more intelligent than Lisa, Qi Jiayi decided to establish a good rapport with her and added one more piece of information.

Hong Kong Island?

Sun Xining’s eyes lit up, and she felt her breathing grow quicker.

When leaving Jing City, Sun Xining actually wanted to go to Hong Kong Island the most.

But trying to settle down long-term on Hong Kong Island with dignity is extremely difficult for ordinary people, so eventually Sun Xining opted for the closest place to Hong Kong Island, Peng City.

This way she could occasionally go to Hong Kong Island and it somewhat fulfilled half of her dreams...

Hong Kong Island, which left a deep impression on her through films since she was young, carried a certain natural filter for girls of her age.

Although the reality is that many Hong Kong Islanders aren’t as nice as imagined, their prejudice against outsiders is quite severe.

”Alright, that’s the main content of the agreement. There might be things I’ve missed, so you’ll need to take the time to review it thoroughly yourselves.”

Qi Jiayi said, and took out her business card, placing it on the coffee table.

”I won’t be staying in Peng City and Hong Kong Island for too long, so you don’t have much time to consider. Feel free to call me once you’ve made up your mind, and I’ll tell you where to go to sign the formal agreement.”

”Mm-hmm...”

The two young women quickly nodded, and seeing Qi Jiayi standing up, they promptly followed suit.

As Qi Jiayi was about to leave, Sun Xining gathered her courage and called out to her.

”Um... Lawyer Qi, may I also have your personal contact details?”

Seeing Sun Xining holding her phone nervously, Qi Jiayi looked at her steadily for a few seconds before chuckling softly and nodding.

”Sure.”

...

When Qi Jiayi left the mansion, she saw Zhou Wang basking in the sun lazily on the lawn.

Lying on a deck chair, he held his phone in one hand, scrolling through short videos, with the other hand holding a cigarette, while Old Xu, the butler who brought her in, dutifully stood by holding an ashtray, ready to collect the ashes.

Seeing Zhou Wang in such a leisurely state, Qi Jiayi was amusedly irritated.

She had been arguing inside, while this guy was taking it easy...

Qi Jiayi walked briskly in high heels, but because she was walking too quickly, her heel twisted on the soft grass, causing her to stumble.

Though she wasn’t actually about to fall, Zhou Wang, who had long been watchful, swiftly rose, taking a quick stride, gracefully reached her side, and caught her waist.

The high-quality cashmere blazer was thin and soft, just like the touch of Qi Jiayi’s slender waist, but Zhou Wang remained composed, gently caressing as he asked with concern:

”Why so careless, are you alright?”

”You... let go of me.”

Qi Jiayi, akin to a startled deer, broke free from Zhou Wang and quickly retreated two steps. Turning to look, she saw that Old Xu had tactfully turned his back, quietly moving away from the lawn, allowing her to exhale relieved.

”Jiayi, don’t make it seem like we’re sneaking around, it makes me feel awkward...”

Zhou Wang took the initiative to complain at this point.

Don’t make it seem like?

Qi Jiayi found that whenever she was alone with Zhou Wang, she’d become so aggravated that her hormones went out of balance, losing control of her emotions.

Just as she was about to lash out, Zhou Wang quickly added: ”Thank you for your hard work, calling you over early in the morning, you must not have slept well last night.”

Facing Zhou Wang’s sincere gaze, Qi Jiayi suddenly was at a loss for words.

As she struggled to find words, Zhou Wang continued speaking to himself: ”I’ve discussed with Sister Qingkui, with the founding of the group, your responsibilities are heavier now, so here’s a small token of gratitude, we’ll increase your salary by two million...”

Qi Jiayi froze in place.

When she signed the labor contract with Zhou Wang, her starting salary was three million a year, now it’s five million, which restored her to the average annual level she had when working at Yunshangyun Law Firm...

”I don’t want it!”

Feeling a mixture of emotions spreading inside her, Qi Jiayi quickly turned her head and blurted out.

Seeing Qi Jiayi’s childish sulking demeanor, Zhou Wang found it amusing internally.

Primarily because he was unsure if he was encountering Qi Jiayi’s dominant personality now...

”Accept no undue reward; it’s been such a short time, increasing my salary so quickly isn’t right; at least wait until I’ve achieved some results.”

Qi Jiayi likely realized she was slightly overreacting, quickly adjusted her emotions, and explained.

Seeing her regain her aloof demeanor, Zhou Wang, of course, refused to relent.

”What’s the date today?”

So instead of debating the salary increase with Qi Jiayi, he suddenly asked.

”Today is the 29th, why...”

Qi Jiayi instinctively replied. Just as she was about to ask Zhou Wang ”why,” she saw his deep eyes and abruptly realized something was amiss.

Today is the 29th, which means... the month is about to end.

Right when Zhou Wang added, ”You’ll have to stay here for several days this time, right?”

What does he mean?

What on earth does he mean!

Qi Jiayi’s heart raced, her adjusted emotions again became a tangled mess...
