Charm point maxed out, inheriting game assets

"Yes," Shangguan Qiuya immediately replied, "They are alumni. After Jiang Yourong received her doctorate, she began teaching at Yan City Normal University and has maintained close contact with Xie Shuyu. During this time, Xie Shuyu helped her solve the problem of horizontal research funds multiple times, and the two have a deep personal relationship."

"Hmm." Secretary Jin nodded slightly, "Jiang Yourong... aside from being a bit lazy, she is actually quite an outstanding talent, a Ph.D. in computer vision. Doesn’t she have her own team? Wasn’t she recently preparing to collaborate with Yunting Essence on that ’AI Laboratory’?"

"Then let’s add some more responsibilities to her."

Secretary Jin turned around, her beautifully flawless face showing no expression.

"Send out the notice, on the ’Human-Computer Interaction and Cognitive Science Joint Laboratory’ project that Xuanji Light Realm is cooperating with the universities on, put her name and her team on the core collaboration list."

"President Tang is going to Xuanji Light Realm to personally take on the role of CEO, and he always needs some truly technically proficient, trusted individuals by his side to help alleviate pressures. His current two assistants are not qualified enough; Jiang Yourong’s capabilities are well-matched."

"Also, when I return home, have her come to see me."

"Understood!" Shangguan Qiuya respectfully responded immediately.

Watching Chairman Jin’s silhouette, her heart surged with passion.

It’s been a long time since anything has made Chairman Jin strategize so seriously.

She seemed once again to witness the invincible "Wonder Woman" who once maneuvered through the capital markets!

The excessive closeness between Miss Ouyang and President Tang, along with her series of small actions.

Clearly, these have completely angered this Empress.

Of course, the most important thing is, President Tang is choosing to go to Xuanji Light Realm, instead of returning to Smile Holding.

Shangguan Qiuya knows better than anyone else.

Chairman Jin always misses the days at Meigou Technology, fighting side by side with President Tang day and night.

She has always hoped that President Tang, after gaining experience, would come back to her side again.

But now... he has chosen Ouyang Xianyue’s "territory."

Therefore, Chairman Jin will definitely conduct a thorough, all-around infiltration and counterbalance of Xuanji Light Realm.

...

December 3, 2023, Sunday.

Just after five in the afternoon, as the sky darkened.

Jinli Villa.

Having washed and made up, Xie Shuyu stood in front of the mirror, pressing her lips together.

Her throat instinctively moved slightly.

Even now, she still felt that there was something strange in her mouth.

This made her, a person with a cleanliness obsession, feel uncomfortable all over.

On her hair, it seemed there was still the warmth left by Tang Song’s fingers passing through.

Perhaps thinking of something.

Her cheeks uncontrollably flushed again, her mind a mess.

"Ding-dong—"

The alert sound from WhatsApp interrupted her thoughts.

[Meng Ran: "Yu! Must, must remember! Help me take a few photos of Miss Ouyang! If you can help me get a signature... please please! o(╥﹏╥)o"]

Xie Shuyu looked at her friend’s "begging" meme, helplessly shaking her head.

She casually replied with a [Got it] meme.

Gathering her scattered thoughts, she took one last look in the mirror before stepping outside.

Tonight, she was meeting Ouyang Xianyue.

For this legendary woman in the Huaxia business community, her feelings were very complex.

Of course, there was also inevitable nervousness.

The main concern was that her behavior might be improper, thereby affecting the relationship between her and Tang Song.

Arriving in the living room, she saw Tang Song standing by the corner floor-to-ceiling window, talking on the phone.

Through his sporadic, gentle words.

It was evident that the person on the other end was Wen Ruan.

Her face showed no unusual emotion, she just quietly sat on the redwood armchair in the living room.

After a moment, Tang Song ended the call and walked over with a smile.

"Sister Shuyu, you look beautiful."

Xie Shuyu stiffened, stood up, and said, "It’s about time, we should leave."

"Hmm, let’s go." Tang Song extended his hand, trying to place it on her lower back.

However, Xie Shuyu nudged lightly with her elbow, then quickened her pace, moving out of his reach, striding to the door.

Tang Song paused, helplessly shrugging his shoulders.

Apparently, the female president was still upset about last night.

All day today, her attitude toward him was cold.

Though, last night he did get a little carried away.

Especially at the last moment—

...

More than ten minutes later.

The Bentley Musk stopped slowly in front of an unassuming standalone private club.

Secretary Chen, waiting outside, quickly stepped forward and opened the car door respectfully for the two of them.

"Mr. Tang, President Xie."

"Secretary Chen." "Secretary Chen, hello."

"Please, Miss Ouyang is already waiting on the second floor."

The interior of the club was purely in a modern Chinese style.

Underfoot was smoothly warm hardwood flooring; on the sides were precious huanghuali wood carved lattices.

The air was filled with a tranquilizing top-grade agarwood aroma.

Silent, restrained, yet making one involuntarily quieten down.

Walking up the wooden stairs to the second floor.

Arriving at the door of the innermost private room.

Secretary Chen knocked gently on the door, then slightly stepped aside after opening it: "Please enter."

Tang Song nodded slightly, stepping in first.

Xie Shuyu’s heartbeat began to uncontrollably accelerate.

Taking a deep breath, she followed him inside.

An even stronger refined aroma mixed with top-grade tea fragrance greeted them.

The whole private room resembled more a classically spacious study than a dining room.
