Chapter 455: Strength unknown, strong when meeting the strong!

~22 min read 4,239 words

The quiet VIP room, the air filled with faint tea fragrance.

Lin Empress Mu Xue stood behind Tang Song's side, her gaze lowered, appreciating his handsome side profile from top to bottom, her gaze filled with infinite love.

Her heartbeat accelerated slightly, her fingertips trembled unconsciously, wanting to touch him, but not daring to.

At today's opening ceremony of the international fashion exhibition, she finally achieved her long-awaited goal—letting Wen Wen Qiuyue taste the pain and helplessness she had suffered at the beginning.

The shadow that had been pressing on the bottom of her heart for many years was completely dispelled at this moment.

She felt an unprecedented ease and relief, as if her whole person had been renewed.

At this very moment, being with Tang Song felt to her like the MVP settlement screen in a game, full of a sense of achievement and satisfaction.

She began to have more fantasies about the future, and the feelings for Tang Song in her heart also reached the peak.

For her, Tang Song could be said to have given her a second rebirth.

Helping her complete the transformation of her life identity and achieving a certain degree of class crossing.

Although she was calm as water on the surface, her heart was already agitated to the extreme, and her emotions were running so high they were almost overflowing.

Just at this moment, Tang Song suddenly looked at her again, the smile on his face exceptionally good-looking.

As their gazes met, Lin Empress Mu Xue licked her red and moist lips unconsciously, and a strong impulse surged in her heart.

She really wanted to have a "ball game" with him right now, but the occasion here was truly inappropriate.

After all, she was going to be a "transformation spray-water girl."

Withdrawing her gaze, Tang Song's gaze returned to the system interface.

In the center of the romantic and beautiful 【Companion】 interface, besides Zhao Zhao Yaqian and Wen Wen Ruan, another shining portrait card appeared.

The pattern on it was what she looked like 3 months ago, the first time she had a relationship with him.

Camisole, high heels, voluptuous figure with long legs, very much a goddess style.

In the center of the card, the words 【Cultivation Plan Task Generating...】 were written.

According to the experience of the beautician and the big sister before, it should take a few more hours.

Tang Song lifted the corners of his mouth slightly, thick anticipation surging in his heart.

After such a long time, finally welcoming the third companion, I don't know what kind of cultivation plan it will be.

Subsequently, he felt the companion buff 【High Emotions】 carefully, but didn't feel much.

Probably because his current emotions were not intense enough.

However, it could be seen from Little Xue's performance that this buff was very useful and needed to be developed and experienced slowly.

"Tang Zong." Zheng Qiu, who was sitting on the sofa, suddenly stood up, his expression serious. "Regarding the matter of Wu Wei and Huashang Clothing, I need to go and arrange it personally, so I won't disturb you here."

As he spoke, his gaze swept over Lin Empress Mu Xue without a trace.

With his EQ and IQ, he could naturally see the subtle relationship between the two.

Three people being here made him feel like an extra lightbulb, uncomfortable all over.

"Hmm, then let's make an appointment later." Tang Song stood up and nodded to him.

Watching Zheng Qiu's figure disappear.

The moment the door closed, the VIP room returned to silence.

Tang Song turned around and looked at his sexy and graceful female assistant.

It had to be said that Little Xue was truly "dressed for the occasion" today, very beautiful.

Lin Empress Mu Xue subconsciously brushed the hair on her temples, bent down slightly, and whispered, "I'm sorry, Tang Zong. I came to participate in the fashion exhibition without telling you in advance."

With her current position, naturally, there was no such thing as attendance.

But after all, she was Tang Song's assistant, and she had sneaked over to pretend to be cool, only to be caught red-handed; her heart was still very anxious.

The warm breath rushed toward her, and Lin Empress Mu Xue's heartbeat accelerated suddenly.

The next second, her lips were gently contained, and a warm hand was on her waist.

Lin Empress Mu Xue gave a "hum," and her body softened rapidly, as if all her strength had been drained.

Tang Song's kiss was gentle and lingering, carrying a breath that intoxicated her.

Lin Empress Mu Xue raised both hands, wrapped them around his neck, and her body pressed tightly against him.

Feeling Little Xue's undulating body curves and sweet lips, Tang Song's heartbeat began to accelerate, and his emotions gradually ran high.

Immediately after, his mind became exceptionally clear, his physical strength and energy seemed to become more abundant, and even the kissing became more vigorous.

Tang Song let out a comfortable moan, pushed Lin Empress Mu Xue against the wall with force, and along her exquisite face, crossed her chin, kissing her neck and collarbone.

Lin Empress Mu Xue leaned against the wall, head tilted back, breathing violently, her mind blank.

I don't know how long passed, Tang Song's movements gradually slowed down, and the two's lips slowly separated.

Lin Empress Mu Xue's cheeks were flushed, her eyes dazed, and her lips slightly swollen.

This was the first time she felt Tang Song's unmasked possessiveness and his domineering yet gentle love.

Making her whole person seem to float into the clouds, light, unable to find a place to land.

"Little Xue, are you okay?" Tang Song's voice was low and magnetic, carrying a trace of a smile.

Lin Empress Mu Xue dazed slightly, then came back to her senses, her voice carrying a trace of trembling. "I... I'm fine."

Tang Song patted her buttocks and said lightly, "By the way, what's going on with Yao Lingling?"

He was looking from afar through the glass window; although he knew Yao Yao Lingling and Wen Wen Qiuyue had some conflicts, he didn't know the inside story.

"It's like this..." Lin Empress Mu Xue hurriedly told the whole story that happened before, without any exaggeration.

After listening to her description, Tang Song pondered for a moment and said, "I'll arrange this matter."

In the growth plan task, he was required to build a design team.

With the current strength and scale of Songmei Clothing, wanting to recruit a complete clothing design team was almost impossible.

Facing this task, he couldn't just cheat randomly and could only operate under the premise of complying with business rules.

In the early stage of development, he planned to adopt "outsourced design + core positions self-built," self-building 1-2 core designers (responsible for brand style control), and handing over other parts to Huashang Clothing's team.

This core designer needed to deeply understand the brand DNA and ensure style consistency.

After the scale grew, he would dig an entire design team over.

Yao Lingling, the little junior sister, was undoubtedly a very suitable choice.

"Okay, Tang Zong." Lin Empress Mu Xue responded, and then asked in a low voice with a flushed face, "Do you have any other needs?"

As she spoke, she looked at Tang Song's lower abdomen, her heartbeat unable to slow down at all.

Although the location here was not very suitable, if Tang Song needed it, she could still try.

"Nothing else, I'll give you a half-day off this afternoon; you've been working quite hard recently."

"Thank you, Tang Zong." Lin Empress Mu Xue pinched her fingers, a trace of imperceptible loss flashing in her eyes.

"Oh, by the way." Tang Song smiled lightly, his fingers sliding over her delicate and warm skin. "Are you free tonight? I want to invite you to dinner."

He had already made an appointment with Wen Wen Ruan at noon and had to go to Songmei Clothing for a meeting in the afternoon.

By the evening, the cultivation plan should be out, just in time to let this fake socialite friend choose her future path.

Hearing this, Lin Empress Mu Xue's eyes lit up instantly. "Okay, I'll wait for your call!"

She had a premonition that it was going to rain heavily tonight!

The matte gray Porsche 911 was like an elegant lightning bolt, shuttling through the city streets.

Xu Ning, sitting in the passenger seat, twisted her buttocks and said excitedly, "Little Xue, you were so majestic today; that Wen Wen Qiuyue was taught a lesson by you like a grandson, too awesome! And your boyfriend Tang Song, even the big leaders were particularly polite to him."

"Hehe." Lin Empress Mu Xue chuckled, her brows lifting slightly. "Photos are all taken, right?"

"Rest assured! Videos, photos, everything is there! The effect is very great!"

Because she was afraid she would drop the chain at a critical moment, Xu Ning followed Lin Empress Mu Xue to do reception in the VIP hall, and at other times she shrank behind to watch and take photos.

However, she also witnessed Lin Empress Mu Xue's "graceful and outstanding" and "suppressing the whole venue" from beginning to end, and hadn't calmed down until now.

Lin Empress Mu Xue was high-spirited. "Help me organize it later; I want to post it on social platforms."

"Hmm, leave it to me!"

At noon, the two found a high-end restaurant and had a beautiful meal before returning to Lanfeng International Apartment.

Lin Empress Mu Xue first picked out the clothes she wanted to wear for the date in the evening and took a serious bath.

While waiting for her hair to dry naturally, she sat on the sofa wrapped in a bathrobe watching variety shows.

Laughter continued in the living room.

After a while, Lin Empress Mu Xue seemed to have thought of something and suddenly picked up her phone to operate it.

Turning to look at Xu Ning, she said, "I transferred 30,000 yuan to you."

"Ah!" Xu Ning exclaimed, stammering, "Why so much..."

"This money, besides paying off the credit card that arrives on the 20th, use the rest to pay the rent." Lin Empress Mu Xue's expression was relaxed. "I already told the property company before; your rent is halved and can be paid monthly."

The current her, holding 500g of gold that could be cashed out at any time, plus the 50,000 yuan salary just issued, her wallet was already very full.

Xu Ning looked down at the transfer record on her phone, stammering, "This... this... too much... don't need so much, 25,000 is enough."

"Let's go shopping on the weekend; it's time to change seasons now, you should buy some new clothes."

Hearing this, Xu Ning dazed, and suddenly turned to hug her.

Low sobbing sounds rang out.

After a long while, Xu Ning wiped away her tears and said sincerely, "Thank you, Little Xue; I swear, I will absolutely not do anything to let you down in the future."

"Cut~~" Lin Empress Mu Xue knocked on her head, saying unhappily, "It sounds like you're my girlfriend; don't mess around, I don't like you."

Xu Ning "pfft" laughed and began to laugh.

The two played around on the sofa for a while, the atmosphere becoming more and more relaxed, as if they had returned to two years ago.

Xu Ning looked at her former best friend and suddenly asked with concern, "By the way, Little Xue, have you still not restored the relationship with your family? You are living so well, they..."

"Stop, I don't want to talk to you about this topic." The smile on Lin Empress Mu Xue's face gradually disappeared.

Xu Ning whispered, "I just feel that, actually, your parents are also quite hard; you haven't been home for more than a year."

Lin Empress Mu Xue's lips pressed tightly, a complex look flashing in her eyes.

She was born in an ordinary rural family in Shaanxi Province, and had an older brother 4 years older than her.

Since childhood, her parents told her the family was poor, telling her not to cause trouble, and even more not to compare with others.

God knows where she could compare with 350 yuan of living expenses every month in high school?

Even in college, the living expenses were only 500 yuan; she truly couldn't afford anything and had to be frugal with meals.

Mobile phones, computers, clothes, cosmetics... almost all were bought with money she saved from part-time jobs.

When she was about to graduate and find a job, even knowing that paying money could get her into a big airline as a flight attendant, she never dared to mention it to her family.

Later, relying on her outstanding appearance and hard work, she began to do modeling to earn money.

Although the income was not stable, she still tried her best to transfer some money home every month.

How much she transferred depended on how much she earned.

Her parents also thought she had found a good job and often showed off to relatives.

They also said this was all saved for her dowry and wouldn't be spent randomly.

In this regard, she could be considered a very sensible daughter.

As a result, later her brother talked about a partner and wanted to buy a house, and her parents took out all the 200,000 yuan they had saved without hesitation, and even sold the homestead they said was left for her in their hometown.

No one told her throughout the process, and no one sought her opinion, as if she were not a member of this family at all. At that time, Lin Empress Mu Xue had just experienced Wen Wen Qiuyue's humiliation and was already on the verge of collapse.

As a result, her mother ran to Yancheng under the guise of visiting her, discussing with her whether she could borrow some money for her brother to pay more down payment and reduce some burden.

God knows how painful she was at the time.

After a big quarrel with her mother, she never went home again.

She invested all the money she earned in herself, rented with Xu Ning in Yanjing Yanjing Huating, and lived a superficially glamorous life.

The reason Xu Ning chose to say it at this time should be because she saw her resolve the knot about Wen Wen Qiuyue and wanted to persuade her.

Lin Empress Mu Xue was not a cold-blooded person and had once loved her home very much.

So much time had passed, and with her current temperament, to say how much resentment she still had, it actually didn't go that far.

More of it was grievance.

After a long time, Lin Empress Mu Xue suddenly stood up, expressionless. "This is my own business; don't worry about it."

!

Xu Ning opened her mouth, but in the end, didn't dare to continue persuading.

Returning to the bedroom, Lin Empress Mu Xue sat on the bed and dazed for a good while.

Picking up her phone, she opened Tang Song's photo.

Looking at his face, her mood finally improved.

For her now, Tang Song was the closest person; she would never leave him in this life.

Letting out a long breath, Lin Empress Mu Xue cheered up and began to seriously tidy herself up.

Strictly speaking, this should be the first formal date between the two, which was of extraordinary significance to her.

She didn't want to be affected by anyone or anything.

She wanted to draw a perfect period for today.

Yunxi Building, Songmei Clothing.

Tang Song had just returned to the office with his laptop when a crisp system prompt sounded in his ear.

"Ding! 【Companion-Lin Empress Mu Xue】 cultivation plan has been generated; please go to the 【Companion】 module to view."

Tang Song's spirit shook.

He quickly sat in the boss chair, opened the system interface, and entered the 【Companion】 module.

The light halo flowed around the portrait of 【Lin Empress Mu Xue】.

Click on the card to view details.

The interface switched, and two different colored plates appeared on the left and right.

【Companion: Lin Empress Mu Xue (23 years old)】

【Role: Rongliu Capital-General Assistant】

【Height: 173 cm, Weight: 52 kg】

【Constitution: 67, Endurance: 63, Agility: 70, Comprehension: 72】 (Note: The scoring standards for men and women are different)

【Growth Progress: 35%】

——————————

On the right is a multiple-choice question:

【Please select the cultivation mode for the companion】

【a: Simple Mode (Enjoyment Ren Mingyuan), dedicated to creating a top-level playmate, a human wealth flower, signing a family trust with Juqing Juqing Hui Jin, enjoying an additional 10 million USD packaging fund pool, co-branded items with high-end planning, black gold cards from global top 10 medical beauty institutions, automatic renewal of VVIP seats at high-end fashion weeks..., requires consuming certain resources and a small amount of emotional care】

【b: Normal Mode (Private Assistant), dedicated to creating a precise execution and life support assistant that meets the player's needs, managing private itineraries (medical beauty/home maintenance/travel arrangements), coordinating high-end social resources, maintaining luxury service relationships..., requires consuming more resources and moderate emotional care】

【c: Difficult Mode (Liaison Assistant), dedicated to creating an agent-type private assistant, taking into account career synergy and life support, obtaining remote master's degree qualification from top 100 universities, participating in non-public affairs decision-making of the family office, coordinating global travel, medical, beauty, and other resources, managing the operation of the player's non-core assets (wineries/private jets/yachts)..., requires consuming a large amount of capital resources and moderate emotional care】

【d: Custom Mode, the player makes mandatory planning according to their own wishes, including (canary, life assistant, administrative assistant, elite executive...)】

【Note 1: The first 3 options are the best cultivation strategies based on Lin Empress Mu Xue's own ability, growth environment, cognitive level, and temperament】

【Note 2: The choice of mode will determine the cultivation direction of Companion-Lin Empress Mu Xue, thereby affecting the companion's comprehensive quality after the plan task ends】

【Note 3: The companion is also a manifestation of the player's charm, which can add to the charm score; please choose the route that best suits her】

————————

After reading all the options and notes, Tang Song thought quickly in his mind.

The 3 options provided by the system, the first two had a lot of connections with the current Lin Empress Mu Xue.

For example, 【Enjoyment Ren Mingyuan】, it was simply tailor-made for her; those cultivation tasks were absolutely easy for her.

【Private Assistant】 was also what she was doing now.

After all, with Little Xue's current ability, expecting her to truly become a general assistant was unrealistic.

And 【Liaison Assistant】 was a highest-level assistant role.

Usually, one also needed to possess cross-disciplinary knowledge and skills, such as finance, law, management, technology, etc.

For example, the assistant group members recruited by Jin Secretary, such as Sister Shangguan Shangguan Qiuya and Qin Qin Yingxue, were cultivated toward liaison assistants.

Once the ability met the standard, they would help her manage an industry in a certain field.

And Lin Empress Mu Xue, the system arranged for her mostly related to "enjoyment," involving few professional fields, and was linked to the Tang Jin family office.

From his own perspective, naturally, 【Difficult Mode】 was the most beneficial.

The upper limit was the highest, and the feedback benefits to him were also the highest.

She could also replace him in contacting some game characters and assets.

Of course, as his companion, he would hand over the choice to Lin Empress Mu Xue.

Even if she truly lay flat and became a "glamorous" socialite, he would accept and give support.

"Knock knock knock—" A knock on the door suddenly sounded.

"Please come in!" Tang Song sat up straight instantly and closed the system interface.

Gao Gao Mengting, wearing an OL uniform, walked in, her steps light and her face flushed, obviously in a very good mood.

Tang Song asked curiously, "Why so happy?"

"Hehe." Gao Gao Mengting stood by the desk and handed over a car key. "Happily picked up the Mercedes-Benz E today; this Wuling Hongguang should be returned to its original owner."

Tang Song instantly came back to his senses and smiled. "Congratulations, Gao Mengting; do you want a loving hug to celebrate?"

He had said before that he would allocate a car in the company's name; this was finally picking up the car.

"Go away! Big pervert!" Gao Gao Mengting made a fierce expression at him, and then smiled again. "It's almost off work; I plan to take Cheng Qiuqiu to go for a ride and drink some wine at home tonight to celebrate; do you want to join?"

Tang Song was a bit embarrassed. "Eh..., I have something to do tonight."

The expression on Gao Gao Mengting's face paused, and she smiled. "Fine, count it as your bad luck; Cheng Qiuqiu wears a camisole at home, originally wanted to see the big-breasted girl with you."

"Next time for sure!"

The two joked for a while and chatted about the operation of branding before Gao Gao Mengting walked out of the office with light steps.

Looking at her back, Tang Song couldn't help but sigh.

Feeling a bit sorry for his partner.

Busy with work recently, plus having too many wings, there was very little private time to accompany her.

The company was going to Wushan for team building in a while, which was also her hometown; he could accompany her to have a good time then.

Putting his attention back on the system interface, Tang Song continued to read Lin Empress Mu Xue's cultivation plan seriously.

After a good while.

"Ding dong—" A WeChat prompt sounded.

【Lin Empress Mu Xue: "(#Obedient) I've already tidied up."】

Tang Song checked the time, 18:15.

The sky outside the window had already darkened.

He replied quickly: "Coming over immediately, about 10 minutes or so."

Putting away his phone, Tang Song stretched and began to tidy up.

Subsequently, his gaze fell on the Wuling car key on the table, and a playful smile appeared on his face.

Speaking of which, the first time he met Little Xue was when he picked up the Wuling Hongguang, when eating at Shengweige.

Tang Song picked up the car key neatly and cleanly, told Liu Liu Jia Yi, and took the elevator directly to the underground parking lot.

Looking at the spirited Little Wuling in the parking space, Tang Song sat in with a smile.

Soon, the white Wuling Hongguang S started slowly.

Lanfeng International High-end Apartment.

A tall and sexy figure walked out of the glass gate, stepped on the bluestone road with an elegant model step, and walked slowly to the sidewalk on the side of the road.

At this time, it was the peak of off-work, people coming and going on the street, traffic like weaving, noise mixed with the busyness and prosperity of the city.

The woman wearing a Chanel high-end dress and carrying a limited-edition LV handbag had an outstanding temperament, as if she were out of place with the noise around her, but also formed a scenery of her own.

Passing pedestrians couldn't help but slow down their pace, and the return rate was close to 100%.

Men appreciated her sexy beauty, and women looked at her clothes and bags.

Some even raised their phones to take photos of her secretly.

A few young people who had just started working stood a few meters away from her, eyes wide, unable to move their feet at all.

"Damn! This woman is truly exciting!"

"Sigh, really want to know who is dating such a girl; envy me to death, damn!"

"If this were my girlfriend, I would break my ribs to make soup for her!"

"Forget it, let you go and pick her up, do you dare?"

"Don't dare..."

"Still work hard to earn money, buy a BBA to pick up girls!"

"Cut~, this level of girl, you can't pick her up if you drive an ordinary BBA! Need a luxury car like a Ferrari."

Just when they were appreciating the ultimate goddess while mocking each other.

A Wuling Hongguang with double flashes stopped beside her.

"Beep beep—" A crisp horn sound rang out.

The passenger window lowered slowly, and a male voice could be vaguely heard from inside.

"Damn! An idiot driving a Wuling actually went up to pick her up!"

"Pfft—, this is too funny, truly a clown."

"This joke is enough for me to laugh for a year! Hahaha!"

"Don't laugh, people are Wuling car owners, strength unknown, strong when meeting the strong! Hahaha~~"

Amidst their laughter and teasing.

The girl showed a surprised smile, stepped forward quickly, and opened the passenger door.

One hand holding the skirt, the other hand holding the bag steadily, she bent down and sat into the car, her movements light and elegant, full of beauty.

The moment the door closed, the window rose slowly, isolating the gaze from the outside.

The Wuling Hongguang started steadily, gradually merging into the endless stream of traffic, and the taillights flickered with dazzling light in the night.

(End of chapter) ===== CHAPTER 456 =====

The moment the car door closed, the window slowly rolled up, cutting off the gaze of the outside world.

The Wuling Hongguang started smoothly and gradually merged into the endless stream of traffic, its taillights flashing with blinding light in the night.
