In the evening, Zhou Xuanqing, who had just finished his shift and was planning to return to the villa, could not bear the warm invitation from the designers under his command and agreed to meet up at the nearby Jingjiang Hotel.

Along the way, her subordinates were all very friendly with her, constantly telling her funny and fun things. Zhou Xueqing didn't respond. He didn't know how long it had been since he had come out to have fun with the others like this.

He used to be busy studying for graduate school, but now he had to take care of the Zhou family. No matter what, she had to be strong and go on.

Just as he was about to become lost in thought, he suddenly heard one of his subordinates shout out, "Look! Who are these three people?"

Zhou Xuanqing, like the others, lifted his head to look in the direction indicated by his subordinate.

He Qingyu? He Qing Yi? The other was Ji Yun.

Three names quickly sounded in her heart, and then she froze on the spot.

The staff of the design department at the side did not know what Zhou Xuanqing was thinking. They only assumed that she had seen her superior here, and thus appeared somewhat reserved. He could not help but console her, "Director Zhou, it's time to get off work. No matter who we meet, let's go! "

Zhou Xuanqing turned his gaze away from He Qingyu, whose back just happened to be facing him. He braced himself and said, "Mm? Okay, let's all go in!"

After saying that, he walked in a few steps ahead of everyone else.

Upon seeing this, the rest of the people from the design department smiled at each other and followed him in.

Outside of Jingjiang Hotel, Ji Yun, who had finally managed to park her car, noticed Zhou Xuan Qing's group the moment she opened the door and got out of the car.

She remained calm and collected, but there were some doubts in her heart. He did not understand why someone with Zhou Xuanqing's status would come to a high class clubhouse like the Jingjiang River.

The monthly income of an ordinary white-collar worker was almost equal to the monthly income of an ordinary white-collar worker.

From the looks of it, they were here for a meal.

The more Ji Yun thought about it, the more confused he became.

Since he had been focusing on Ji Yun, He Qing Yi had naturally noticed Zhou Xueqing. He narrowed his eyes and his heart sank. He remembered the last time he was in the hotel room.

The hand gripping the wheelchair tightened, and soon, a smile of interest appeared on his face.

As he walked into the river, Zhou Xuanqing was quickly attracted by the luxurious decorations inside. He had no idea he was being watched. At this moment, she was somewhat worried about how much a high class clubhouse like this would consume.

What if he didn't have enough money in his purse?

The few staff members of the design department could not tell what Zhou Xuanqing was thinking. A girl named Qian Qian said, "Follow me later. I'll bring you to the reserved room."

The reserved room from before?

Zhou Xuanqing looked at Qian Qian with a puzzled expression. According to her guess, in such a high class place, if one did not have a certain status, it would be impossible to reserve a room.

Very quickly, someone solved her confusion.

It was a PR lady who came to guide Qian Qian. When she saw Qian Qian, she first called her "Miss Yang" very respectfully.

Then, he started to report, "The room you previously reserved is on the second floor. We've already served snacks and drinks for you. I'll take you up now."

Yang Qianqian nodded and said without a care, "Alright, then quickly lead us up! Oh yeah, later on, get someone to send us Su Ren and some fried lobsters. I'm a bit hungry from working so late at night. "

Yang Qianqian didn't look that old, she seemed to be in her early twenties. Zhou Xuanqing carefully observed her every move and speech, his heart filled with suspicion.

The other staff member in the design department noticed Zhou Xuanqing's confusion and grinned. He reached out his hand to pat Yang Qianqian's shoulder, making fun of her, "Qianqian, why aren't you explaining yourself to our new Director Zhou? What's your identity?"

It turned out that these people knew well about Yang Qianqian's identity, she was the only one who didn't.

Zhou Xuanqing restrained his expression, preparing to listen.

Seeing Zhou Xueqing looking at her in such a manner, Yang Qianqian, who had always been straightforward, felt a little embarrassed. Smiling, I didn't call him 'superior' this time, but called him by his first name, "Qingqing, actually, I was just interested in working at the Zhou Enterprise. My parents are abroad. After college, I feel so bored. "He reluctantly got his designer license and coincidentally entered the Zhou family."

Zhou Xuanqing had a rough understanding of Yang Qianqian's background, but he was still unsure of her background.

After hearing what Yang Qianqian said, another person couldn't help teasing her, "Qianqian, you actually dare to call our Director Zhou by his name, and by a nickname at that."

Yang Qianqian pursed her lips, shrugged her shoulders and said as if it was a matter of course, "I'm just shouting, what can you do about it?"

They were just joking, now they started to jeer, "Okay, you're the big miss! "You can call me whatever you want, right Director Zhou?"

Zhou Xuanqing had always been a person who didn't care about small details. She felt that it wasn't a big deal for her subordinates to call him by his name, and there was nothing for her to be concerned about. Ye Zichen nodded with a smile, then lowered his attitude, "You can do whatever you want as long as you're happy."

These words were immediately praised, "What did I say before? "As I said, Director Zhou has a good temper. He's someone worth befriending."

"I don't need you to say that, otherwise why would I think of all sorts of ways to bring her here?" The one who said this was Yang Qianqian. Because she was born in a good family, she had a sense of pride that only aristocrats would have.

The others also chimed in, "That's right, we all know."

Zhou Xuanqing, who had suddenly been praised, discovered that the one who spoke the loudest was the one who often ignored him in the company, the one with the most outstanding design, Little Qiao.

Her ears perked up, and she kept her smile on her face. They understood that the dinner tonight was all part of their plan.

However, she was very happy. Not long after she joined the company, she gained the favor and trust of some people.

As the few of them stood in the corridor and laughed and laughed for a long time, occasionally, guests would pass by one after another. Just as Zhou Xuanqing was about to open his mouth and call the few of them into the private room for a chat, a curious gaze swept over him.

Relying on his senses, Zhou Xuanqing turned his head around, and he immediately froze in place.

She hadn't expected that the one looking at her would be He Qingyu. When he entered, he didn't bump into her outside, but he didn't expect to meet her after entering.

Ji Yun, who was following closely behind, noticed the change in He Qingyu's expression and turned to look at him.

Behind the two of them, someone was pushing a wheelchair out of the elevator, but it was the same for He Qingyu.

For a moment, the gazes of two rows of people met.

The current situation was not that of the company, and Zhou Xuan Qing didn't know if he should go up and greet them. She stood frozen in place for a long time without moving.

The other girls from the design department were also shocked. They had not expected to meet their boss face to face in this kind of situation.

The first one to react was Qiao Qiao. She coughed twice and then said loudly as naturally as possible, "President He, General Manager, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you here."

As for the people in the wheelchair, she didn't know them at all.

Since she didn't know him, there was no need for her to greet him.

As his subordinates greeted him, Zhou Xuan Qing knew that it was not a good idea to continue staying in a daze. He took two steps forward and revealed a slight smile, "Hello Boss He, Manager Ji, and Mr. He!"

After asking them one by one, he pretended to be relaxed and said, "What a coincidence, we actually met each other here."

After leaving the stadium, He Qingyu lazily stomped his foot and coldly said, "What a coincidence."

Zhou Xuan Qing didn't know how to respond, and hesitated as to whether he should just randomly reply with a few words of 'leave' or 'leave'.

When she saw this, Ji Yun finally understood something. Jealousy rose in her heart, willing to think too much. However, a woman's intuition told her that He Qingyu treated this girl with the name of Zhou Xuan Qing differently.

This was something she could not allow.

Thinking for a while, Ji Yun impolitely opened her mouth, "Director Zhou is really generous to actually invite your subordinate to come here to spend some money. Presumably, your family background is pretty good, right? "

These two simple sentences caused Zhou Xuanqing's face to turn red, and his ears to turn red. He tightened his grip on his bag, not knowing how to respond.

Yang Qianqian couldn't stand it any longer. She knew that her family wasn't as good as Ji Yun's, but she didn't want to see others relying on their power. With a stride, he grabbed onto Zhou Xuanqing's hand and sent him flying back with his chin raised. "Manager Ji's words sound rather interesting. It's as if those who work here cannot come to higher class to consume."

Ji Yun didn't expect that a small designer would dare to talk back to him. Her heart surged as she said with a fake smile, "Who are you? You actually dare to have any complaints about my words."

Zhou Xueqing, who didn't want to involve others, pulled on Yang Qianqian secretly, signaling her to stop talking.

However, Yang Qianqian, who also had the temper of a young lady, would naturally not listen to him and could not help herself. She smiled brightly, "I'm Yang Qianqian from the design department. General Manager Ji should know me from now on!"

The way she spoke made her seem quite cute.

He Qingyu raised her eyes and looked at Yang Qianqian.

Noticing that He Qingyu was paying attention to her, the straightforward Yang Qianqian immediately blushed and looked away.

Seeing this, the anger in Ji Yun's heart grew. His fingers, which hung at his sides, dug deep into his palm, unaware. She raised her eyebrows and sneered, "Yang Qianqian, don't worry, I'll remember you!"

Sensing the hostility in Ji Yun's eyes, the other girls from the design department couldn't help feeling nervous. He gathered up his courage and walked over, holding Yang Qianqian's hand as he tried to persuade her in a low voice, "Qianqian, don't say anymore, let's go in!"

Since He Qingyu had a strange feeling about it, Yang Qianqian did not want to continue the hassle. She nodded, "Alright, let's go in."

As he finished speaking, he grabbed Zhou Xueqing and lightly tugged at him. "Director Zhou, it's time for us to go in."

Zhou Xuanqing knew that Yang Qianqian was trying to find an excuse to escape, so he quickly replied, "Okay." With that, he looked up at the three of them and spoke apologetically, "CEO He, Manager Ji, Mr. He, we will be going in first. I hope you have a good time here! "

Then, he politely nodded his head and said his goodbyes before following the few girls from the design department into the private room.

After the pedestrian left, the magnificent corridor became quiet once again. He Qingyu turned and looked at the ground as he casually said, "Shouldn't we leave now?"

Since the situation wasn't good, Ji Yun could only retract her thoughts, "Alright, Big Brother Ning Xi, let's go over there as well!"

Their destination was Jingjiang's casino, which was located in a booth on the second floor. There were several rooms in K'ong's room that acted as camouflage, making them seem very secretive.
