"Sister Jiayi, are you suggesting... I go to Zhou Wang’s company to help you?"

Having understood Qi Jiayi’s idea, Sun Xining, who had just adjusted the way she addressed her, said with uncertainty.

Most of Sun Xining’s knowledge about Zhou Wang came from information on the internet.

She knew he was very wealthy and could imagine that his company was undoubtedly large, especially since the establishment of Wangzhou Group had been announced online. Therefore, Sun Xining instinctively thought that she, someone who couldn’t even grasp high school math, couldn’t possibly enter such a big group.

So when Sun Xining heard that she could earn more if she was willing to find something to do, her first reaction was to venture into something she felt she was somewhat knowledgeable in...

QQ Hotel.

"Yes, Ningning, you don’t need to worry about lacking abilities. What I need now is an assistant with a higher level of trust."

Qi Jiayi thought for a moment and decided to be straightforward, "I’ll teach you gradually... The Hong Kong Island branch is newly established, with many tedious tasks, but nothing too daunting. It’s just right for you, depending on whether you’re willing to learn."

Qi Jiayi was feeling a bit impulsive, but she inexplicably felt this decision was quite right.

One reason is that her original assistant, Sura, must stay at Wangzhou Group headquarters to help oversee legal matters. Another reason is Sun Xining’s "special status"...

Currently, Qi Jiayi had no idea how to deal with her relationship with Zhou Wang, but she already harbored a vague premonition that she’s likely unable to escape this vortex.

Yesterday she might have had the entire day to regret, but was completely overwhelmed by Zhou Wang’s grand gestures; the duplicate of the land registration form felt so urgent, but Qi Jiayi really couldn’t throw it away.

Not to mention, after a night of Zhou Wang’s persuasion, her mindset had subtly changed.

Given Qi Jiayi’s strong character and high IQ, as well as her deep understanding of Zhou Wang’s flirtatious nature, there are some things she must fight for.

First and foremost is a woman she cannot avoid...

Jiang Qingkui.

Yes, regardless of how Zhou Wang dabbles outside, no matter how many women she doesn’t know are around him, in Qi Jiayi’s eyes, only Jiang Qingkui posed a significant threat to her.

Girls like Su Yajing, no matter how many come along, Qi Jiayi feels no threat.

The similarities between her and Jiang Qingkui are indeed too many... Qi Jiayi doesn’t harbor any malice, but she must make some preparations.

After all, since she and Jiang Qingkui have both been working in the group, they’ve interacted quite a bit, but both have kept a courteous distance, never attempting to develop a genuine friendship...

Insightful of her own thoughts, Qi Jiayi couldn’t help but laugh.

What is this, "palace struggles"? 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

While Qi Jiayi teased herself, Sun Xining also found herself in great turmoil.

Tempting?

There is some temptation.

Although she impulsively wanted to manage a hotel, the calm reality is that Sun Xining vaguely knows opening such a hotel on Hong Kong Island would incur massive costs, and she doesn’t have enough confidence to withstand losses...

But if she worked in an office job, it seemed there was no psychological burden.

Besides, it’s Zhou Wang’s company...

After some hesitation, Sun Xining looked up and cautiously said, "Um, Sister Jiayi... Can I consult with him about this?"

Qi Jiayi was taken aback, then nodded in agreement.

...

When Sun Xining called Zhou Wang, our Mr. Zhou was sitting with a glass of 82 Lafite in the VIP suite of the Hong Kong Island jockey club, passionately shouting:

"Number 7, faster, faster, put some effort into it!"

These two sentences were just learned from the young master Huo Chengrui. Simple and understandable, "faster" means "hurry up," and "put some effort" means "give it your all," commonly heard at the racetrack.

Zhou Wang was desensitized to any particular year of Lafite; some things, once tried, were just so-so. But apparently, in the traditional views of Hong Kong Island’s elite, this kind of wine still holds prestige.

To entertain him, Huo Chengrui specifically took out his stored wine at the racing club as a show of respect.

After two consecutive encounters, Huo Chengrui’s perception and attitude towards Zhou Wang have completely turned 180 degrees.

There was a time he wanted to destroy Zhou Wang, but now he’s afraid Zhou Wang wants to destroy him.

This is not a joke; as a super second-generation wealthy heir like Huo Chengrui, he could be flamboyant outside, but his biggest fear is being stripped of his family inheritance rights.

And now it seems... given Mr. Huo Chengrui’s father’s, Huo Yingxiong’s, high regard for Zhou Wang, Zhou Wang indeed can influence family decisions.

Having once offended Zhou Wang, he feels very anxious.

"Mr. Zhou has keen insight, number 7 is nurtured by a newly debuting horse trainer. It’s said this trainer had reaped honors abroad, yet remains a rookie in Hong Kong Island, so not many bet on number 7 to win..."

Huo Chengrui clinked glasses with Zhou Wang, smiling as he spoke.

The four girls seated behind watched the horse race with curiosity; though unable to comprehend the surrounding audience’s fervor, they found it somewhat amusing.

"What does that Mr. Huo mean, does he really trust the number 7 that Zhou Wang bet on?"
