"Mr. Zhou, let’s talk about business."

Lawyer Qi couldn’t answer Zhou Wang’s question, so she could only keep a straight face and drop the subject, finally blurting out dryly.

The clever Zhou Wang slipped by once again, but only on the surface.

Because he knew that if women, as creatures, could be rational, they wouldn’t be called women.

Qi Jiayi just "lost" in this instance and spared the topic, but it didn’t mean she wasn’t angry inside.

After all, Zhou Wang was too much: four bathrooms plus two in the villa, he nearly gathered all seven Dragon Balls...this dog of a man!

Given the subtle relationship between the two, even though Qi Jiayi didn’t have a strong position to reproach Zhou Wang, she certainly had the stance to accuse him of lacking discretion.

However, under the circumstances, it was best to skip this topic. Now is not the right time to appease Qi Jiayi, so Zhou Wang wisely nodded and transitioned the topic to work.

"Have you visited both places?"

When business was mentioned, Qi Jiayi restored her usual aloof stance and reported seriously:

"Yes, according to your instructions, I have completed the registration of the subsidiary on Hong Kong Island and transferred both the property rights of No. 9 Shallow Bay Road and the shares of Neptune Race Club to the new company’s name... I have had the assets assessed by professional companies, and the values match the documentation they provided."

As she spoke, Qi Jiayi opened her briefcase and placed the relevant paperwork in front of Zhou Wang.

"On Ao Island, I have had my assistant Sura go ahead; the division of shares in Galaxy Group is a relatively complex process. Sura is still negotiating, and it might take some time."

Zhou Wang nodded slightly.

Qi Jiayi came to Hong Kong Island first to help Zhou Wang take over three newly acquired assets. From what he heard, it seemed fairly smooth.

"Is there a site chosen for the subsidiary?"

Zhou Wang asked casually.

The so-called "subsidiary" is Wangzhou Group’s base on Hong Kong Island, which Zhou Wang found rather troublesome.

His asset expansion was too rapid, and the biggest problem was the lack of personnel.

For example, setting up a new company on Hong Kong Island involves site selection, personnel appointments, and a series of other issues. Finding an office space isn’t hard; renting a temporary office building is fine, but who can be the head of the Hong Kong Island base?

If things don’t work out, resorting to [Resume] for recruitment is an option—though crude, it’s effective—but Zhou Wang always felt that relying on a system for everything made him seem like a total loser.

The main issue was the lack of a sense of accomplishment...

"A few locations have been identified, but you still need to make the final decision..."

As Qi Jiayi was about to elaborate, Zhou Wang waved his hand to interrupt her.

"Send these matters back to the group. Let the board make the decisions; I’m not going to bother."

Wangzhou Group is newly established; so-called boards are basically Jiang Qingkui’s show when Zhou Wang doesn’t weigh in.

Zhou Wang couldn’t stand being tied up by office matters every day, but Jiang Qingkui seemed to thrivel on being busy. So anything Zhou Wang could offload, big or small, he left to her.

"Okay."

Qi Jiayi noted this and then asked if Zhou Wang had any other instructions.

Zhou Wang remembered something and said, "Get me the information on Tyrant Security."

"Tyrant Security? Alright."

Qi Jiayi noted the name with surprise, as she hadn’t heard of it, but anything mentioned seriously by Zhou Wang shouldn’t be a small company.

"Anything else?"

"You should have recruited some people for the group’s legal department; arrange for a capable one to go to Peng City and station at Wangzhou Pharmaceutical’s factory."

"Alright, anything else?"

"Also, I plan to set up a media company, and perhaps an entertainment agency as well. Or we can go the acquisition route; I need your advice in this area."

"A media company?"

Qi Jiayi struggled to follow Zhou Wang’s jumping thoughts but quickly noted it down.

Then Zhou Wang and Qi Jiayi discussed many more work-related matters, occasionally mixed with personal chit-chat about Zhong Huilan’s current situation.

Initially, Qi Jiayi noticed nothing unusual; she was only puzzled about why Zhou Wang suddenly became so concerned with work today, which wasn’t like him, although it seemed positive.

After all, Qi Jiayi relied on Zhou Wang for her livelihood, and a boss too idle was unsettling.

Until...

Ring ring!

The alarm clock startled her.

Qi Jiayi glanced at her watch and realized that it was already four or five in the afternoon without her notice.

And today... was November 30th.

Qi Jiayi’s face changed suddenly; she sprung up from the sofa.

"In summary, our ultimate goal is to build a future-leading ecosystem platform, becoming a world-class enterprise, punching Tencent and kicking Ali..."

Zhou Wang, still eloquently discussing the future group development strategy, looked at her in surprise, "Jiayi, what’s wrong?"

"You..."

Qi Jiayi looked at Zhou Wang, unable to discern from his expression whether he was doing it on purpose.

Regardless, Qi Jiayi certainly couldn’t stay any longer.

It’s the autumn and winter season... it still gets dark quite early.
