Chapter 174: Wen Ruan, Xie Shu Yu

May 26, 2023, Friday, foggy to overcast, 18~27°C.

In Yancheng at the end of May, a faint chill permeated the morning air.

The orange-red sunlight became hazy and beautiful through the fog.

"Swish—" The light gray curtains were pulled open, leaving a gap.

A spirited Tang Song gazed into the distance through the glass window.

Yancheng, not yet fully awake, seemed to be draped in a thin veil.

A gentle breeze blew, the veil swayed lightly with it, and the buildings and traffic in the distance were faintly visible.

The scenery before him made Tang Song somewhat fascinated.

He first picked up his phone to take a photo, then picked up his sketchbook and pencil, and began to record his feelings with a sketch.

Any skill, if not used for a long time, would become rusty.

Tang Song cherished the guitar and painting skills he had acquired, and he had truly turned them into hobbies from the bottom of his heart.

7:00 AM.

Tang Song walked into the cloakroom and changed into a brand-new set of sportswear.

Dark gray sports T-shirt + black sports shorts + breathable sports shoes + black sports underwear.

He opened the system interface, entered 【Outfits】, selected 【Infinite Vitality】, and put it on immediately.

Accompanied by the system's crisp prompt sound, a sense of lightness instantly enveloped him.

This outfit consisted of many parts; he had scoured the internet for many similar clothes and finally determined this set after matching and combining them one by one.

According to the system's judgment, the effect could reach 90%.

Stamina +1.8, Agility +3.6; as long as he was in a state of exercise, he would gain a 45% stamina and effect bonus.

Because the weather was not very good today, Tang Song did not choose to go downstairs to run or jump rope.

Instead, he spread a yoga mat on the bedroom balcony and began the "30-minute sweat-drenching fat-burning exercise."

Squat-to-knee touches, mountain climbers, jumping jacks...

He had learned this set of movements at the beginning of his transformation; before, every time he exercised, his heart rate would soar to 150, his whole body would be burning hot, and his muscles would tremble.

However, with his current physique, it was much easier to do.

The recruitment of the first official player made Tang Song increasingly realize the importance of a good body.

If he wanted to have more players, besides offering satisfactory salaries, confrontation matches could not be lacking; at least he had to make the players physically and mentally satisfied.

"Huff, huff—"

As the exercise progressed, Tang Song finally realized the power of the 【Infinite Vitality】 outfit.

It was worthy of being an outfit born for exercise.

The breathability was excellent; it was simply like exercising naked.

Sweat was quickly absorbed, conducted, and discharged from the body as soon as it appeared, keeping the body fresh at all times.

The stamina bonus attached to the special effect 【Infinite Vitality】 made his whole body full of strength; it was very energetic.

Immediately after, a bold idea popped into Tang Song's mind.

If he wore this outfit while playing ball, he felt he could completely take on two people at once!

9:00 AM.

Tang Song tidied up his things, put on his backpack, took his helmet and car keys, and went downstairs.

The fog had dissipated quite a bit, but the sky was still somewhat dim.

Walking along the clean stone path of the residential area to the bike shed, he saw the Ninja 400 lurking in the corner from afar.

The metallic Spark Black color scheme had a clear metallic luster, looking very textured.

The sharp cutting lines and sharp edges revealed a sense of power and muscle ready to go.

The headlights were sharp, deep, and bright.

Putting on his helmet and gloves, and straddling the motorcycle, Tang Song patted the bike body, his face full of excitement and satisfaction.

He had been back with the bike for two days; he had only ridden around the neighborhood before to familiarize himself with the driving experience.

The SHOEI Z8 helmet he bought online yesterday afternoon had also arrived; it was time to ride it out and try it.

Starting the engine.

"Boom, boom, boom~" A low and powerful roar instantly rang in his ears.

The Ninja 400 slowly started, drove out of the bike shed, and merged into the traffic on the main road.

With a light twist of the throttle.

The speed gradually increased, and the roar of the engine became clearer.

Tang Song lowered his head slightly, adjusting his riding posture to fit the bike body.

The whistling wind, the passing pedestrians, the speeding cars, the high-rise buildings...

It was like a flowing scroll unfolding on both sides of him.

It also awakened the passion in his heart.

Huayun Center.

Tang Song parked the motorcycle opposite Building A and locked his helmet.

In his mind, he thought of Cheng Qiuqiu, whom he had met here last time.

Dressed in all black, riding a white GSX250, she looked both beautiful and cool.

Smiling and patting the bike body, Tang Song walked toward the building with his backpack on his back.

He took the elevator directly to the 15th floor and walked toward the headquarters of Weiguang Coffee.

Last night, Xie Shu Yu specifically called him and asked him to come here this morning.

Walking into the company door, because today was a workday, a girl in her early 20s was sitting at the front desk, quiet and wearing glasses.

Noticing Tang Song walking in, the girl quickly stood up and said politely: "Hello, is there something... uh..."

Just after saying one sentence, the girl said shyly: "You're Tang Song, right? Sorry, I didn't see clearly just now."

As she spoke, her eyes occasionally peeked at the other person.

Looking at the unfamiliar front desk, Tang Song asked in surprise: "You know me?"

"Mm-hmm!" The girl quickly stood up, her eyes shining: "Your photo is in the company's honor display area, and Xie Zong also posted the video of your roadshow in the company's internal group."

Tang Song realized: "So that's it. By the way, is Xie Zong in the office now?"

"She hasn't come yet; she usually arrives at the company around 9:30."

"OK, then I'll wait in the lounge for a while, bye."

"Bye~"

Watching Tang Song's handsome and tall back leave, the front desk girl reluctantly withdrew her gaze and began to spread the news of Tang Song's arrival in the company's girls' group.

There were not many people at the Weiguang Coffee headquarters, only about 50 people, and most of them were in business support positions.

The salary was not high, but the work was easy, and the proportion of women was over 60%.

There were only so many male colleagues, and not a single one was presentable.

The appearance of Tang Song's photo before had shocked them severely, and they had been looking forward to seeing the real person.

At the bar in the lounge, Tang Song had just sat down for a while when he found several female colleagues walking over.

While making coffee, they peeked at him and occasionally whispered a few words.

"Da, da, da—" Rapid footsteps sounded.

Immediately after, Li Xiaomin walked quickly into the lounge.

Coming to him, she said enthusiastically: "Tang Song, you arrived so early today. Come, Xie Zong arranged a workstation for you before, I'll take you there."

"Okay, thank you, Sister Xiaomin."

Tang Song stood up and followed, feeling a bit surprised; he didn't expect the company to arrange a workstation for a part-time technician like him.

The area of Weiguang Coffee headquarters was not large, estimated to be only three or four hundred square meters.

The two walked for a while and arrived at a separate office, which happened to be opposite Xie Shu Yu's office, with only four workstations, very spacious.

Li Xiaomin pointed to a position by the window and said: "This is your place, the office supplies are all in the storage cabinet."

"Okay." Tang Song nodded, put down his backpack, and sat in the office chair.

The desk was clean and tidy, with a brand-new laptop on it, next to a blue mug, a Weiguang Coffee theme calendar, a file rack...

Besides that, there was a tender green potted plant in the corner.

Tang Song flipped through the storage cabinet below and found common office supplies such as employee ID, signature pen, sticky notes, mouse, etc.

It could be seen that Xie Shu Yu really appreciated him; she was just short of saying directly that she wanted to poach him to work for her.

Li Xiaomin picked up the mug on his desk and smiled: "Is there anything you want to drink? Coffee, tea, and juice are all available."

"Coffee is fine, thanks."

Li Xiaomin made an OK gesture and walked quickly outside.

For this part-time technician of the company, she was extremely enthusiastic.

Besides Tang Song's own outstanding ability, it was also because of Xie Zong's attitude.

Having followed this boss for so long, it was the first time she had seen her appreciate an employee so much.

Thinking again of the intimate actions between Tang Song and Xie Zong in the car, as well as the other party's outstanding appearance and character.

Li Xiaomin smiled; it might even become her boss in the future.

Tang Song sat at the workstation, drinking coffee while waiting for Xie Shu Yu.

Looking at Building B outside the window, his heart stirred.

He hadn't seen Wen Ruan for several days; he didn't know if this big sister had finished her work.

He opened his phone and left her a message: "Guess where I am?"

After a while, "Bzz, bzz, bzz—"

【Wen Ruan: Chest selfie. jpg】

【Wen Ruan: "I guess you're here."】

Because there was no one in the office, Tang Song clicked on the photo calmly.

It should have been taken in the company restroom; he could even see the tiles and wooden boards behind her.

Two buttons of her shirt were undone, revealing a deep cleavage.

After zooming in to look, Tang Song took a deep breath and replied: "Okay, sister, you're right, I've already entered."

Just as he was about to continue flirting with the big sister.

"Knock, knock, knock" came the sound of knocking on the door; Tang Song quickly put away his phone and sat up straight.

Immediately after, Xie Shu Yu, wearing a silk stocking suit, walked in, looking at him with a smile, "Morning, Xiao Song, kept you waiting, sorry, I didn't expect you to arrive so early today."

Tang Song stood up and said: "Morning, Sister Xie Shu Yu, it's okay, I just arrived not long ago either."

The elegant and sweet perfume scent rushed into his nose.

Xie Shu Yu walked over with elegant steps and sat down at the workstation next to him, "Have you had breakfast?"

Different from her previous intellectual and indifferent appearance, the current Xie Shu Yu seemed very kind, and her gaze toward him carried a warm smile.

"Mm, I have, my schedule is very regular, I eat on time every day." Tang Song met her gaze generously without any retreat.

The two chatted simply about daily life, and Xie Shu Yu cared about his work.

Only then did she say: "I asked you to come over today mainly for two things. The first is that the marketing campaign for the mini-program is about to start. I've contacted a planning company; let's discuss it later and see if you can achieve the effect they mentioned. The second thing..."

She paused and continued: "There is a private business gathering on Saturday. Those who attend are considered elite individuals who have made achievements in their respective fields. I want to take you to see it; I don't know if you're interested."

Tang Song was stunned, a joyful smile appearing on his face, "Of course I'm interested, thank you, Sister Xie Shu Yu."

From Xie Shu Yu's invitation and attitude, it was clear she really treated him as a good friend, and she also wanted to help him reach a higher circle and improve himself.

It just so happened that he still had the 【Make Connections】 task, which could be considered killing two birds with one stone.

He had originally wanted to carry it out through Juqing Juqing Hui Jin or Huashang Apparel; he didn't expect to find a breakthrough from Xie Shu Yu's side.

It could be considered an unexpected surprise.

Xie Shu Yu nodded gently, leaning back slightly, arms resting on the armrests, her long, lustrous legs crossed lightly.

She said softly: "I don't know if you've heard of the concept of "weak ties"?"

Tang Song nodded, "I have. I'm currently reading Stephen Covey's "The Most Important Thing in Life". It emphasizes the importance of weak ties and how to manage interpersonal relationships to obtain long-term benefits."

Xie Shu Yu's eyes brightened, and her gaze toward Tang Song became even softer.

She sat up straight again and said with a chuckle: "Right, I'm taking you there this time because I hope to help you establish some weak ties.

The relationship is not strong, but the power is not weak; it can provide useful information from different social circles.

Circles are really too important, especially for someone as young as you.

The significance of upward social networking is not to hope for others to help you, but to see more powerful people, a broader world, and quickly break through cognition..."

She looked at the confident and tall Tang Song in front of her, and her appreciation was beyond words.

She really liked this young man; she saw many shining points in him.

Gentle, humble, confident, vigorous, thinking, strong execution...

And of course, very importantly, young and handsome.

People are visual animals, and Xie Shu Yu is no exception.

What she wanted to do was not to add flowers to the embroidery, but to send charcoal in the snow.

At his starting stage, she gave him platforms and connections he couldn't reach, took him to see a broader world, and saw what he could actually achieve.

She also hoped he would stay away from the temptations of shortcuts like "Wang Miao" and become a better version of himself.

Even if he couldn't join Weiguang Coffee in the future, it could be considered establishing a sincere friendship, which might become her help in the future.

Tang Song appreciated the elegant and intellectual mature woman while communicating with her about topics like "interpersonal relationships" and "value".

Xie Shu Yu was able to start from scratch and achieve her current net worth of ten million; her personal ability and cognitive level were naturally not low.

Her earnest and patient words were truly beneficial to Tang Song, who was still in the development stage.

"Knock, knock, knock—" The sound of knocking on the door suddenly rang out.

"Come in."

After a moment, Li Xiaomin pushed open the office door and said: "Xie Zong, the people from Guangying Media have arrived and are waiting in the conference room."

"Okay, I know." Xie Shu Yu nodded gently.

Hearing the four words "Guangying Media", Tang Song blinked.

He remembered Wen Ruan saying that she was responsible for Weiguang Coffee's marketing plan; he didn't know if it was her who came today.

Thinking of that selfie just now, his heart felt a bit itchy.

The big sister's bosom was so broad; he really wanted to feel it.

"Let's go, let's go to the meeting first. Don't worry, it will definitely be finished before noon; it won't delay your work in the afternoon."

"Okay!" Tang Song stood up quickly and followed Xie Shu Yu outside.

Because the area was not large, they arrived outside the small conference room after walking a few steps.

Xie Shu Yu pushed open the frosted glass door directly and walked in.

Tang Song recited "Wen Ruan" in his heart, looked up, and a wide smile appeared on his face.

Caught you!

In the small conference room, Wen Ruan, wearing a short-sleeved shirt and gray suit pants, was sitting there with a laptop in front of her.

This was the first time Tang Song had encountered her in a working state; her expression was calm and serious, her posture was poised and mature, and she exuded a unique charm that combined intellect and charm.

Gentle as water, elegant as an orchid.

Noticing the movement at the door, Wen Ruan stood up quickly and said politely and respectfully: "Hello, Xie Zong."

Xie Shu Yu nodded gently, "Thank you for your hard work, Wen Ruan, often making you run here for meetings."

"It should be, Weiguang Coffee is our important client, we must serve it well." Wen Ruan responded with a smile.

In her heart, she was secretly complaining: It's not because you are too demanding and nitpicking, making me revise until I vomit every time; it's really enough.

Immediately after, her eyes trembled, and her gaze looked at the boy who suddenly appeared at the door.

She began to doubt whether she was lovesick and hallucinating.

Immediately after, she reacted quickly.

Tang Song did say that he was a part-time technician for Weiguang Coffee.

Noticing her gaze, Xie Shu Yu introduced: "This is our company's technical director, Tang Song. Let's sit down and talk."

Wen Ruan withdrew her gaze calmly and sat back in her original position.

Tang Song sat down opposite her consciously, winked at Wen Ruan, looked at her towering chest, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

Xie Shu Yu said: "I've read the plan, the overall is no problem. Wen Ruan, introduce it in detail. If Tang Song thinks it can be achieved, we will start executing it immediately."

"Okay, Xie Zong." Wen Ruan turned slightly and slid her fingers lightly on the touchpad.

The display screen in front of the conference table lit up and began to play the PPT.

Soon, a magnetic voice rang out: "This activity planning is mainly aimed at group-buying customers such as enterprises, teams, communities, etc. We are divided into two major modules: online and offline. Online is based on the mini-program for fission..."

Wen Ruan, who had entered a working state, was very serious and responsible, speaking clearly and introducing every detail very clearly.

After she finished speaking about "Effect Evaluation", Xie Shu Yu looked at Tang Song beside her and said softly: "Xiao Song, can the mini-program achieve these fission interaction effects? If it's troublesome, we can modify the plan again."

Her voice was very soft and gentle, completely different from her previous decisive and swift style.

Wen Ruan opposite was stunned.

Weiguang Coffee was an old client of their company and had been in contact for a long time.

She knew this Xie Zong very well; she had always been very serious and strict in her work.

She actually spoke to Tang Song with this attitude and tone.

If he felt it was troublesome, could the plan be modified?

Good guy! This was something I rushed out after staying up for two nights!

Look at the fashionable and sexy Xie Shu Yu, then look at the handsome Tang Song.

How come they felt so ambiguous!

Her heart felt uncomfortable instantly.

Damn! Xie Shu Yu is 3 years older than me!

She couldn't help but stretch out her leg under the table and stepped on his foot not too lightly.

Tang Song's face didn't change at all, and he smiled: "No problem, the function is not complicated, it can be done very quickly."

"That's good." Xie Shu Yu nodded, "Wen Ruan, play the electronic version of offline banners, posters, and other promotional materials; I want to confirm it again."

"Okay." Wen Ruan took a deep breath, opened the file rack, and began to play the pictures one by one.

The small conference room was not large, the table could only accommodate 6 people, equivalent to a dining table.

Wen Ruan's feet were close to his, touching him from time to time, as if expressing her dissatisfaction.

Tang Song looked at the big sister with surging waves opposite him, stretched out his long legs, moved slowly along her calves, and rubbed lightly.

Wen Ruan quickly controlled her expression and forced her legs together, but her fingers still couldn't stop trembling slightly.

Damn little brother! You're playing this set with me!? Be careful, I'll wash you away with a flood!

After the playback was finished, Xie Shu Yu frowned slightly and said: "This slogan is best optimized again, and the color of the poster, is it a bit light?"

Tang Song turned slightly and said: "Sister Xie Shu Yu, I think it's quite good, no need to change it again."

Xie Shu Yu pursed her lips, nodded gently, and said: "Fine, then that's it. Wen Ruan, urge them to produce our materials as soon as possible."

"Okay, Xie Zong." Wen Ruan took a deep breath and squeezed her hands tightly.

"Bzz, bzz, bzz—" The phone's vibration rang out.

Xie Shu Yu took it out to look, stood up and said: "Xiao Song, you continue to communicate with Wen Ruan about the implementation effect. I have a video conference here, not sure how long it will take. If you are busy, you can leave directly after communicating. By the way, come to my house directly tomorrow, I will send you the address and time later."

After speaking, she patted Tang Song's shoulder lightly, "See you tomorrow."

Then she nodded to Wen Ruan and turned to leave the conference room.

"Clang—" The sound of the door closing rang out.

Wen Ruan exhaled a long breath, bent over slightly, and clamped his calves with her legs.

Raising her eyebrows slightly, she said: "Not bad, little brother, I can't tell you play quite fancy!" ===== CHAPTER 175 =====
