Chapter 621: Wen Wen Ruan and Lady Ouyang Lady Ouyang Xianyue
November 16, 2023, Thursday, Sunny.
7:30 AM.
Sunlight dyed the entire city in a layer of clear gold.
"Buzz buzz buzz—" accompanied by a low and pleasant engine roar.
The white Suzuki GSX250 drove out of Zhuxi Residential Area.
Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu carried a backpack, driving her motorcycle through the morning traffic.
It was already late autumn.
The early morning temperature was only two or three degrees, the cold wind blowing against her face, blowing her long hair flying backward.
Because of the continuous popularity of 【HEYISTUDIO】 brand clothing.
Senior Gao Gao Mengting, who was in charge, had spent most of her time at the Huashang Apparel factory recently.
Personally following up on production progress, quality control, and supply chain optimization to ensure that Double Eleven orders could be delivered on time.
She had resumed motorcycle commuting.
More than twenty minutes later.
Parking the bike in the exclusive parking area of Yunxi Building.
Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu carried her helmet and walked toward the building entrance.
Wearing a city windbreaker, paired with her cold, ascetic-style mature sister temperament and tall, sexy figure.
She looked both A and cool, attracting gazes all the way.
While waiting for the elevator, a boy gathered the courage to hit on her, but after touching her cold and distant gaze, he wisely backed away.
Walking into the company.
At this time, there were only a few people in the office area of Songmei Apparel.
Putting her backpack at her workstation, taking off her windbreaker, and opening her computer, she began to prepare for work.
The design plan for the express packaging had been finalized and put into use, and her main task next was to design brand-new series posters and visual elements for new products.
【Missing text/numbering】
"Jingle bell—" The phone rang suddenly.
Cheng Qiuqiu glanced down at the caller information, pursed her lips, and directly muted the phone.
After a while.
A WeChat message popped up on the computer screen.
【Mom: "I'm telling you, if you don't answer the phone again, I'll buy a ticket to Yancheng to find you now!"】
Seeing the content of the message, Cheng Qiuqiu's chest heaved, she picked up her phone and walked quickly outside.
Coming to a quiet small conference room, she dialed her mother's phone directly.
The phone was quickly answered.
"What the hell are you doing?! You don't even answer the phone!" Her mother Li Meihua's familiar and angry voice smashed over from the receiver.
Cheng Qiuqiu's tone was cold: "I'm at work, it's not convenient to answer the phone. Don't come over, I'm doing very well here."
"You never let me visit you, you don't come back, and you want to move. Tell me the truth, are you living with some man out there?!"
"No!"
"Ever since you graduated, you haven't been home once, I don't even know what you look like now. I'm telling you, if you don't come back, I'll come find you, no room for negotiation!"
Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu was silent for a long time, bit her lip, and said: "The company is very busy now, and I have to prepare to move, I can't get away, I'll go back at the end of the month."
After saying this, she didn't wait for her mother's response and hung up the phone directly.
The reason she chose to go back was also because her grandmother's death anniversary was coming up soon.
It was also indeed because she was afraid that her impulsive mother would really run to Yancheng.
She knew her mother's personality too well; now, because of poor management, she had already transferred the shop in Rongcheng.
Once she let her come over, she would definitely live in Yancheng permanently and open a shop here.
At that time, it would definitely turn her life upside down.
If it were before, she could have left Yancheng and hidden.
But now, there were too many things here she couldn't let go of.
Just at this moment.
"Creak—" The door of the small conference room was suddenly pushed open.
Cheng Qiuqiu was startled, hurriedly put away her phone, and turned around.
Immediately following, her heart beat violently.
Tang Song's figure suddenly appeared before her.
He was wearing a high-end dark cashmere coat, with a crisp white shirt inside, his figure straight, his eyebrows smiling.
Like a sudden, warm light, instantly dispersing all the gloom and irritability in her heart.
Speaking of which, since the Double Eleven promotion ended, this was the first time Tang Song had come to the company, and they hadn't seen each other for several days.
Her voice instantly became nervous: "Tang—President Tang, good morning." "Morning, Cheng Qiuqiu." Tang Song closed the conference room door casually and walked in. "Just heard you on the phone, is everything alright?"
The conference room was actually very soundproof, but he naturally discovered the other party precisely because of the 【Dream Flower Seed】.
At this moment, that flower seedling was fluctuating violently.
Obviously, Cheng Qiuqiu's emotions were far from as calm as they appeared on the surface.
Cheng Qiuqiu pursed her lips and said in a low voice: "It's—it's fine, just made a call home."
Tang Song's gaze moved away from the 【Dream Flower Seed】 and fell on Cheng Qiuqiu.
A look of appreciation flashed in his eyes.
This designer was dressed very sexily today.
A tight-fitting white base shirt, paired with high-waisted tight jeans, perfectly displayed her manga-like figure with a protruding front and a curved back.
Feeling Tang Song's warm gaze, Cheng Qiuqiu hurriedly lowered her head.
"Stretch out your hand." A magnetic voice came from the front.
Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu hesitated for a moment, but still stretched out her slightly cold hand obediently.
The next second, Tang Song's warm palm covered it, his fingertips falling lightly on her palm.
A tingling sensation, like an electric current, instantly spread through her whole body.
Immediately following, there was a small round tube with a cold metallic texture in her hand.
Cheng Qiuqiu was stunned, looking up at him strangely: "This—this is—"
"Tom Ford lipstick." Tang Song's voice carried a gentle smile. "#16 Scarlet Red, I think this color is very suitable for you, a gift for you."
Cheng Qiuqiu's heartbeat instantly skipped a beat, a moving blush floating on her face: "—Thank you."
Looking at Cheng Qiuqiu, who had turned from cold to shy, Tang Song curled his lips.
"You're welcome."
Immediately following, he lowered his head and kissed her on the rosy cheek lightly.
Cheng Qiuqiu froze in place, her body instantly stiffening.
The 【Dream Flower Seed】 on her head stopped trembling, the green light it emitted becoming more and more vigorous.
Seeing that the "treatment" effect was so great, Tang Song lowered his head again, this time directly containing her trembling, plump lips.
Moving fragrance, QQ-bouncy touch, as if eating a clear and sweet jelly.
The hot breath intertwined together.
Cheng Qiuqiu's eyes widened instantly, her breathing becoming faster and faster.
After a while, Tang Song's hand slowly fell to her waist, kneading lightly.
Cheng Qiuqiu seemed to finally come to her senses, suddenly taking a step back, her voice urgent and light: "Work is starting soon, colleagues are all coming, I—I'll go back first."
After saying this, she lowered her head and walked out of the small conference room quickly.
Her heart felt like it was going to drill out of her chest.
Returning to her workstation.
Cheng Qiuqiu spread her palm, looking down at the lipstick, dazed.
After a long while.
She bit her lip and opened WeChat.
Clicking on a familiar WeChat chat box, she left a message: "Su Yu, I want to ask you a question. Suppose, you discover that the boy you like very much is actually a scumbag, what would you do?"
"Buzz buzz buzz—"
【Su Yu's April: "Oh? Sounds like there's a story, how did you discover it?"】
Cheng Qiuqiu hesitated for a moment, but still vaguely narrated the story about Tang Song's "top-tier white-rich-beautiful girlfriend" that Gao Gao Junfeng told her.
This netizen with the note "Su Yu's April" was the group owner she met in the Opening Xiaohongshu fan group.
Because both were double fans of Su Yu and "April," they added each other as friends.
They chatted privately often and were unexpectedly very compatible.
The other party even forced her to call her "Su Yu" according to her screen name.
Cheng Qiuqiu had too many words stuck in her heart, but couldn't tell the people around her.
She could only secretly confide in this strange "confidant" on the internet.
She didn't know whether she should tell her senior about this, and even less how to face Tang Song.
After all, she was also a betrayer herself.
Using medical treatment as an excuse, secretly having intimate contact with Tang Song behind her senior's back was equally immoral.
【Su Yu's April: "What's there to struggle with, just dump him, unless—"】
Cheng Qiuqiu pinched her fingers and typed quickly: "Unless what?"
【Su Yu's April: "Unless this boy is an excellent male god like 'April,' let alone stepping on two boats, even if he is driving an aircraft carrier, as long as he is willing to let me have a bunk on it, I am willing. (#hehe)"】
Cheng Qiuqiu: "You really think so?"
【Su Yu's April: "Of course, as long as I can stay by his side and share a little bit of his light, I am already very happy."】
Looking at this series of "love-brained" remarks sent by the other party, Cheng Qiuqiu was stunned.
This—this couldn't even be called a die-hard fan, simply a brain-dead fan.
Even she couldn't do it to this extent.
Cheng Qiuqiu exhaled, the entanglement in her heart seeming to loosen a lot.
She began to type quickly and chat with the other party.
From talking about feelings to April, and then to Su Yu's new album.
Finally, the other party sent another message that made her strange.
【Su Yu's April: "By the way, I'm going to Yancheng for an event next month, let's meet up then? We are so compatible, we will definitely become good friends."】
Cheng Qiuqiu hesitated for a moment, but still agreed.
In the past, she often went to support events with netizens in the fan group.
And, she also really wanted to meet this "confidant," because their preferences were very similar, and they had many common topics.
And the other party knew Su Yu extremely well, even saying she would give her Su Yu's vinyl commemorative collection edition.
Just at this moment, a familiar and energetic greeting sounded in her ear.
"Morning, Cheng Qiuqiu!"
Cheng Qiuqiu turned her head and saw Yao Yao Lingling walking toward her, also wearing that same black windbreaker.
She stopped at the empty seat next to Cheng Qiuqiu and giggled: "Don't forget about the day after tomorrow, I've already made an appointment with that senior, we'll go see the house in the morning."
"Mm." Cheng Qiuqiu nodded.
The matter of moving had been put on the agenda.
Yao Lingling knew a senior whose house in Beicheng Garden Residential Area was for sublease, which happened to be not far from Huashang Apparel and Songmei, and the price was also very cheap.
Thinking that she was about to stop living with her senior, Cheng Cheng Qiuqiu felt both reluctance and an indescribable sense of relief in her heart.
Living under the same roof with her senior every day, while secretly chatting and contacting Tang Song.
She was very guilty.
Yao Yao Lingling waved at her and hummed a tune back to her workstation.
She took off her windbreaker, first brewed a cup of warm red date ginger tea for herself, and then carefully organized her desktop.
Looking at the time, it was about time.
Only then did she happily pick up her laptop and walk toward the president's office.
"Knock knock knock—"
"Come in."
Yao Yao Lingling's face bloomed with a bright smile, pushed the door and walked in.
"President Tang, Morning~, I'm here to report my work!"
Tang Song looked up at this cheerful and generous little junior who was like a small sun.
A brilliant smile also appeared on his face unconsciously.
"You've worked hard, Yao Lingling." His voice was full of appreciation. "I discussed it with President Gao, and in view of the huge contribution you made to the company this time, we decided to double your commission and year-end bonus."
The explosion of this windbreaker was not just the success of a single product; it completely ignited the volume and reputation of 【HEYISTUDIO】, this new brand, bringing immeasurable intangible assets to the company.
Tang Song naturally wanted to reward this top contributor to the greatest extent.
Moreover, the little junior was his "confidant" to begin with.
Looking at the senior's handsome face and sincere eyes, Yao Yao Lingling's face blushed, but she still said playfully: "Didn't you say, if GMV
can break through 4 million, President Tang will satisfy one of my wishes? You are not allowed to welch on your debt."
Tang Song chuckled: "Rest assured, these two rewards are parallel and do not affect each other."
"Alright, thank you senior!" Yao Lingling shouted sweetly, walking lightly to the desk,
placing her laptop on the desktop,
and began to report her work.
It was mainly about the recent docking situation with the outsourced designer team of Huashang Apparel.
Tang Song listened quietly until she finished, looking at this little junior who could already stand on her own, a gratified smile appearing on his face.
After pondering for a moment, he said: "Yao Lingling, I think our own clothing design department should also be expanded. You go organize a recruitment requirement, and I'll say hello to HR. The recruitment and management of new employees will be fully responsible by you."
Now 【HEYISTUDIO】 is at the outlet of rapid development, it is time to build a strong core design team of its own.
"Ah?" Yao Yao Lingling let out a light cry, her expression carrying a bit of panic. "I—I'm afraid I won't do a good job."
After all, she was young and had been graduated for less than two years.
Today's Songmei Apparel already had quite a reputation in the industry.
The newly formed design team must also recruit those experienced design masters, at least not worse than the team at Huashang Apparel.
Letting her manage a group of seniors with more seniority than herself, she really didn't have that confidence.
"I believe you will definitely have no problem." Tang Song encouraged: "Our Yao Lingling is a genius designer who created a million-level hit for the company by herself. What you lack is not ability, but just a little bit of confidence and experience. Don't be afraid, do it boldly, I will support you from behind."
After saying this, he couldn't help but look at Yao Lingling's back.
One has to say, this little junior's pear-shaped figure is truly gifted.
The waist-to-hip ratio is amazing, not even worse than Anne and Wen Wen Ruan.
And because of the slender and thin upper body, it forms a stronger visual contrast with the lower body.
Feeling Tang Song's gaze, Yao Yao Lingling's face flushed, and she said in a low voice: "Thank you for the senior's recognition and support, I won't let you down."
Her body leaned forward slightly, the plump hip line outlining an extremely alluring curve under the light.
Tang Song's heart heated up, and having been corrupted by Little Jing, he couldn't help but reach out and pat it.
Duang
A crisp and textured sound rang out in the quiet office.
The supple and elastic wonderful touch echoed at his fingertips.
Yao Lingling's body shuddered violently, her cheeks instantly flushed red, and even her neck and ear roots were dyed a layer of red.
"Senior, what are you doing, you scared me—"
Tang Song blinked: "It's nothing, there's something dirty on your back, I'll help you pat it off."
Hearing this, Yao Yao Lingling laughed "pfft."
Subsequently, she boldly touched Tang Song's chest: "Just discovered, senior also has something dirty on his chest."
Feeling Tang Song's muscles full of explosive power, Yao Yao Lingling's heart heated up, and she hurriedly pressed her legs together.
Tang Song smiled and turned to chat with the little junior about the topic of "AI technology combined with clothing design."
Now, he had already become a shareholder of Yimai Technology.
Next, it was to promote the deep cooperation between Songmei Apparel and Yimai Technology, apply the most cutting-edge technology, and accelerate the company's development.
Besides this, there was also "Zhilian Future" in Rongcheng.
This project involved more core intelligent marketing and user data analysis, which was more significant, so it required Gao Gao Mengting to personally take charge of the docking.
However, in this way, the partner would inevitably have to have contact with the big sister.
That's fine too, let the partner have a psychological preparation in advance.
It's just hard for the big sister, she might have to take the blame again.
10:00 AM.
Shenzhen Bay No. 1, Building T7, Tang Yi Precision Branch meeting room.
Outside the huge floor-to-ceiling window, it was the magnificent and vast bay area sea view.
Sunlight penetrated the thin cloud layer, spilling a piece of sparkling light on the calm sea surface, the outline of the city in the distance appearing somewhat hazy in the water vapor.
Indoors, the air was filled with faint white tea aromatherapy and the mellow scent of freshly ground coffee.
Wen Wen Ruan sat alone on the huge leather sofa, her hands placed obediently on her knees, her fingertips subconsciously rubbing the cold metal frame of her phone.
Yesterday, she received a call from Lady Ouyang Lady Ouyang Xianyue.
Without any hesitation, and without giving her too much time to think.
She set a meeting for this morning.
Thinking that she was about to see this legendary Ms. Lady Ouyang, Wen Wen Ruan's heartbeat began to accelerate uncontrollably.
In Huaxia, entrepreneurs who can create real wealth, absorb massive employment, and promote technological innovation are the true "pillars of the country," and Lady Ouyang Lady Ouyang Xianyue is exactly such a woman standing at the top of the pyramid.
Behind her, not only is there top capital support, but also deep family political connections.
She rarely accepts media interviews, but possesses extremely high national respect.
Her life has regrets (early death of her husband), but her career is in full swing, leading Tang Yi Precision to continue to break through.
Of course, for Wen Wen Ruan, she is not only an admirable business giant.
She is also one of the core nodes of the massive resource network behind Tang Song.
She is the "big shot" who has intricate connections with Director Jin.
She didn't know the other party's intention for this meeting, but a woman's intuition told her it shouldn't be simple.
Just at this moment.
The heavy solid wood door of the meeting room was pushed open silently.
Wen Wen Ruan stood up immediately, her gaze fixed on the doorway.
The first to walk in was a young female secretary wearing a capable professional outfit, who turned sideways and respectfully opened the door completely.
Immediately following, an elegant and straight figure appeared before her eyes.
She looked younger than her actual age, well-proportioned, wearing a twill tweed suit and a pair of high-waisted wide-leg pants of the same color.
There was no extra decoration, and she didn't wear any jewelry or watches on her wrists.
Yet in every gesture, she radiated a natural nobility.
Her features were not particularly beautiful, but extremely durable, a typical bone-phase beauty full of Oriental classical charm.
A head of black long hair was coiled behind her head with a simple hairpin, revealing a smooth and plump forehead and an exquisite and slender swan neck.
She walked in quietly, her pace steady, radiating a powerful aura that made people awe.
"Wen Wen Ruan." A mature voice sounded, a smile appeared on her face, her gaze fixed on Wen Wen Ruan. "Finally met you."
"Hello, Ms. Lady Ouyang, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Wen Wen Ruan's heartbeat was faster, responding somewhat cautiously.
"You are even younger than in the photos." Lady Ouyang Lady Ouyang Xianyue walked to her and took the initiative to reach out.
Wen Wen Ruan hurriedly held it. "You are also more beautiful than in media reports."
After the two met and exchanged pleasantries.
"Let's sit down and chat."
Lady Ouyang Lady Ouyang Xianyue sat on the sofa opposite Wen Wen Ruan, her legs elegantly crossed.
The secretary brought a steaming pot of tea, and the two poured tea.
The air was diffused with a scent mixed with the aroma of food, red wine, and a woman's natural fragrance.
Wen Wen Ruan followed and took a sip of tea, the tea soup clear and sweet.
She steadied her mind and asked softly: "Ms. Lady Ouyang, you asked me to come over, is there anything?"
Lady Ouyang Lady Ouyang Xianyue smiled and went straight to the point: "Luo Bin has already told me, you received Tang Song's promise and are planning to enter the Tang Jin family office, and the position is a 'special consultation seat,' congratulations."
"Thank you, I hope you can give me more guidance in the future."
"Of course." Lady Ouyang Lady Ouyang Xianyue looked at her, carrying a trace of solemnity in her eyes. "This also means that a very important role has been added to our decision-making system. This is the first time such a seat has been added since the establishment of the family office."
"Uh—" Wen Wen Ruan let out a light breath, feeling more and more that something was wrong.
She initially fought for this "position" because she was moved by Mo Sister Xiang Wan, just wanting to enter Tang Song's true core circle and not be marginalized.
But she never expected that this seat would be so important and precious.
Lady Ouyang Lady Ouyang Xianyue continued: "Next week, I will accompany you to Singapore to hold a formal board meeting. Let you make a formal appearance in front of some people."
"Thank you! It's too much trouble for you, Ms. Lady Ouyang!" Wen Wen Ruan was flattered.
Tang Song originally said he would let Luo Bin take her to dock the process.
As a result, now, Lady Ouyang Lady Ouyang Xianyue was personally accompanying her,
the weight of this was worlds apart.
"You're welcome." Lady Ouyang Lady Ouyang Xianyue's tone became closer. "You have already entered the family office, we are family now. In the future, we will have many places where we need to be closely connected, I personally look forward to working with such an excellent woman as you."
This high-EQ sentence made Wen Wen Ruan's blood boil.
She hurriedly responded: "Being able to learn from you is my honor. I will definitely do my best and not let you and Tang Song down."
The two communicated about the itinerary.
Lady Ouyang Lady Ouyang Xianyue's eyes swirled, as if mentioning it casually, and suddenly threw out a blockbuster news:
"By the way, besides you, Mo Sister Xiang Wan will also accompany you to this Singapore meeting as the head of Tang Zong Entertainment."
"You are both top talents in the media field, I plan to formally propose at the family office meeting—for the family office to lead the establishment of a pan-entertainment industry fund at the 10-billion-dollar level."
"This fund will be specifically used to promote the content going overseas of 【Tang Zong Entertainment】, and accelerate the globalization merger and acquisition and listing process of 【Xinghai International Group】."
"I will personally help you clear the relationships for specific resource docking and listing sponsorship teams."
"I hope that by then, you two can jointly manage this fund."
"This—this—"
Wen Wen Ruan only felt a rush of blood to her head, and a stormy sea surged in her heart.
She had only "risen" for a short time, and even the position of director of Xinghai International Group hadn't been sat warm yet.
Now, not only did she join the legendary 【Tang Jin Family Office】, but she was also asked to manage a 10-billion-dollar industry fund.
And she would be attending meetings with a group of big shots, discussing proposals that were enough to determine the direction of a certain field in the world.
This impact was far more direct and shocking than when Mo Sister Xiang Wan revealed the truth about "Tang Jin" before.
Lady Ouyang Lady Ouyang Xianyue took in all her loss of composure, but didn't urge her.
After she gradually calmed down, she looked at Wen Wen Ruan with deep eyes.
She said softly: "Of course, to promote such a big strategic plan, according to the family office's process, there will inevitably be some challenges.
This may affect the risk cap set by our investment committee.
Especially our Executive Committee Chair, that Miss Smile.
She has always had very prudent risk considerations for any asset allocation related to Miss Su Yu.
I am worried that at the investment committee meeting, her team will propose reservations about this proposal based on the principles of asset security and diversified allocation.
At that time, I hope you, Wen Wen Ruan, can be more forceful."
Hearing this, Wen Wen Ruan blinked her watery peach blossom eyes.
Her charming face was full of big question marks, looking completely confused.
