I've Already Snagged a Top-tier Goddess at the Start; I'm Incredibly Wealthy!

119: Li Qian from Class 3Starting today, Su Wei no longer needed to return to Xingyao Media.

This great beauty settled down in Tan Palace for the time being, waiting for Cao Lang to arrange her next task.

Fate is just that mysterious; a single correct choice can completely change the trajectory of one’s life.

This was the first time she truly felt the weight of those words!

Choice is more important than effort!

If she hadn’t chosen to produce borderline content back then, how could she have met the current Cao Lang?

If she hadn’t chosen to put in the effort last night, how could she have achieved today’s success?

Of course, this choice was closely related to her own way of thinking.

Although Su Wei was a materialist, she also believed in fate!

What is fate?

The actions you take based on your past personality and logic when faced with a situation—that is called fate!

Su Wei had a high IQ; at this moment, she first thanked herself, and then she thanked providence.

Even if she had to do it all over again, she would still choose to dedicate herself without hesitation!

For Cao Lang, a thousand times over.

This was the true value of being in a high position.

Cao Lang was having his daily meal, and Su Wei sat obediently by his side to accompany him.

”CEO Cao, thank you... After the company is established, can I invite my former classmates to come and work with us?”

Su Wei asked with some anticipation.

”Oh? Your classmates don’t have jobs?”

Students from Tsinghua University shouldn’t be doing too poorly, right?

It was nationally recognized that getting into Tsinghua meant one was a guaranteed success, destined to become a big shot earning millions or tens of millions a year!

”They have a lot of work experience... It’s just that many internet companies are undergoing organizational restructuring and business optimization. Several of my talented classmates have been laid off...”

Su Wei explained patiently.

Company layoffs?

Upon hearing this, Cao Lang roughly understood.

Many internet companies were currently conducting large-scale layoffs under the euphemism of ”cost reduction and efficiency improvement!”

With the large-scale application of AI, some business lines were being cut entirely.

Even if the employees in those business lines did nothing wrong, they were inexplicably laid off and became unemployed!

Many middle-aged men with mortgages, wives, and children lost their jobs for this very reason.

Once laid off, when they tried to find a matching job, they would find that the market was already saturated!

The internet industry had developed rapidly over the past decade or so, attracting a vast amount of talent! Now, it had entered a new phase where layoffs and salary cuts were part of the adjustment. Even if you were a top student from Tsinghua, you couldn’t resist the tide of the times!

He heard that TikTok was conducting massive layoffs, and many employees who had dedicated their youth to the company were being ruthlessly eliminated, eventually receiving N+1 severance pay.

A few days ago, his white moonlight, Li Shuang, replied in a friend group saying she had also been laid off... At the time, Cao Lang promised to provide her with a job, but since he hadn’t heard from her in the following days, the matter was dropped.

Thinking of this, Cao Lang readily agreed: ”No problem. As long as it’s beneficial for the company’s development, you can recruit them.”

”Those who were laid off don’t necessarily have a problem with their abilities.”

”Talent is the core of a company’s development. Don’t be stingy with any talent.”

Cao Lang instructed.

”Understood, CEO Cao. I’ve noted it down.”

Su Wei quickly opened her phone’s memo app and recorded Cao Lang’s golden words; these were to be written into the company’s development guidelines.

Cao Lang collected his thoughts, picked up his phone, and sent a message to Li Shuang.

”Old classmate, have you found a job since being laid off?”

Soon, she replied:

”After being laid off, I’m currently traveling in Shanghai...”

”Why didn’t you tell me you arrived? I promised to arrange a job for you.”

”Ah. Wasn’t that just a joke? Can you really arrange a job for me...”

Looking at this message, Cao Lang fell into deep thought.

Li Shuang now had a family and a child. Since she could afford a vacation, she didn’t seem to be short on money. Was there still a need for him to reach out?

The reason a white moonlight is a white moonlight is that the unobtainable things of one’s youth will trouble one for a lifetime.

Seeing her again now, things had changed and people were different; many things were no longer as they were back then.

Before long, Li Shuang proactively sent another message:

”I remember you’re also working in Shanghai. Should we meet up to catch up? (smirk) The Haidilao here is quite good.”

”The urine pot?”

”Hahahaha.”

...”Did you come to Shanghai by yourself?”

”No, I came with my husband and child.”

”Are you considering developing your career in Shanghai in the future?”

”I can’t afford a house! But it’s easier to find a job here.”

The two of them chatted idly on the green bubble.

”Maybe we shouldn’t meet. You already have a husband; I’m afraid I’ll be heartbroken if we meet!”

Cao Lang sent it jokingly.

After a long while.

Li Shuang replied: ”Haha, don’t tell me you still don’t have a girlfriend!”

”Are you kidding? The women chasing me could form a line all the way to France. How could I not have a girlfriend?”

”Bragging again.”

Cao Lang was worth tens of billions, but he had never revealed it to his former classmates.

It was only natural that Li Shuang didn’t know about Cao Lang’s current situation.

Seeing Cao Lang with a knowing smile, Su Wei was very curious about who he was chatting with. Although she had given him her first time, she knew she hadn’t reached the level of a girlfriend yet and didn’t dare to ask much.

”Come, strike a pose. I’ll take a photo of you.”

Cao Lang raised his phone towards Su Wei.

Su Wei immediately made a peace sign with both hands and flashed an incredibly sweet smile. She was extremely photogenic and very charming.

It had to be said that Su Wei’s stunningly beautiful face was born for the camera!

”CEO Cao, why do you suddenly want to take a photo?”

Su Wei’s voice was gentle, and her smile didn’t fade.

”Oh, someone said I don’t have a girlfriend, so I want to prove it.”

Cao Lang replied casually.

”Ah... Girlfriend... Me?...”

Su Wei was suddenly overwhelmed by the unexpected favor, her face turning as red as Lord Guan’s in plain sight.

After Cao Lang sent the photo to Li Shuang, she replied shortly after.

”Hahaha, you stole that from the internet. This girl is a big Internet Celebrity; I’ve seen her in my husband’s following list.”

”Seriously, Cao Lang, I really want you to find someone. The older you get, the harder it is to find. Do you want to be a bachelor for the rest of your life?”

What’s wrong with being a bachelor? It’s so free.

Seeing that Cao Lang didn’t reply, Li Shuang sent another message, sounding mysterious.

”Remember Li Qian from our class? She just went through a breakup. Do you want me to introduce her to you?”

Li Qian?

Cao Lang did have an impression of her—the pretty, well-developed girl who was among the top three beauties in the class.

Most importantly, her name was the same as an internet meme.

Ralph Lauren Chelsea, Li Qian of Class Three, Butterfly 13.

For the Cao Lang of those years, this Li Qian was also a goddess-level existence.

It was just that there weren’t many opportunities to interact.

”Sure, introduce her to me then.”

...Let the white moonlight stay in his memory forever. As for this Li Qian, he wondered if she really was a ”Butterfly.”

It piqued Cao Lang’s curiosity.
