"Wow! The Jiang Group is opening a branch in Jiangling City? What's so great about this small city? I just don't get it."

In the car, Ren Lan couldn't help but complain after hearing the news.

But in the next second, she looked expectantly and said, "Little Lin, Sister Qiuxue, after we finish sightseeing, can we go to the city center?"

Gu Qiuxue smiled and asked, "Do you want to check out the job fair?"

Ren Lan smiled sheepishly and said, "I heard the Jiang Group is the number one company in the world. No student from our school doesn't want to work there after graduation. The benefits and perks are said to be amazing. I want to take a look."

Lin Jichen, sitting in the front, couldn't help but turn his head and say, "You haven't even graduated yet. Maybe you shouldn't go."

He didn't want to go because he was afraid of running into someone familiar.

"I'm already a senior, about to graduate. Why can't I go? Although I want to take the postgraduate entrance exam, if this company is willing to hire me, there's no need for me to take the exam," Ren Lan said seriously.

Lin Jichen felt helpless. He wanted Ren Lan to stop thinking about future jobs and join him in becoming a professional player, focusing on building their strength.

But saying that now would be like talking nonsense. Even if Ren Lan agreed, her scholarly family would never accept it.

Gu Qiuxue was already working and had even quit her job secretly to come here.

No parent would agree to their child becoming a professional player unless they had already achieved great success or had no other prospects.

Gu Qiuxue worked at a hospital in the Capital City, a government job with excellent benefits.

Ren Lan was a talented student planning to take the postgraduate entrance exam, and her family was influential in the education sector. Getting a job in the education bureau would be a matter of a single word.

Her parents would never agree to her becoming a professional player.

Lin Jichen, having been reborn, could only change himself and help those around him as much as possible, but he couldn't forcibly change others' life directions.

"Since Little Lan wants to go, let's go together. What do you think, Little Chen?" Gu Qiuxue agreed.

Lin Jichen, being straightforward, leaned back in his seat and said, "Sure, if you want to go, let's go."

"Hehe, you're the best! If I get into the Jiang Group, I'll owe you a big one!"

Ren Lan was already fantasizing about the wonderful life of joining the world's number one company.

Lin Jichen smiled bitterly, wondering if she would still be so optimistic if she knew Jiang Luoyu was the heiress of the Jiang Group.

The two of them had never gotten along well.

The driver arrived at the destination.

Everyone got out of the car and started touring the scenic spot.

Meanwhile, in the city center of Jiangling, in the headquarters of the newly established subsidiary of the Jiang Group, the atmosphere in the general manager's office was tense.

"Miss, do you have any instructions for coming to Jiangling this time?"

He Mei, the president of the subsidiary, stood nervously in front of the desk, not daring to speak up even though someone else was sitting in her chair.

Because the person sitting in her chair was none other than the heiress of the Jiang Group, the future sole inheritor, and the current head of the Jiang Group.

Looking at the girl in front of her, who was as beautiful as a Heavenly Immortal, He Mei could only marvel at how such a perfect person could exist. Any woman standing in front of her, no matter how beautiful or outstanding, would pale in comparison.

Heaven was too biased, giving all its favor to this one person.

"President He, no need to be nervous. I'm just here to check on the subsidiary. There are no special instructions or tasks. Just keep doing what you're doing. The company trusts you and has sent you here because of your abilities. We believe you can do a good job."

The girl spoke eloquently, and while He Mei listened attentively, she couldn't help but feel something was off.

Wasn't the heiress's speech a bit too redundant and official?

Did she really fly all the way from the Magic City to Jiangling just to give her some words of encouragement?

That seemed too unrealistic. She was just a small subsidiary president, and Jiangling was such a small place. What was there to inspect?

"Rest assured, Miss. I will work hard. Let me report on the new company's recent developments and work content."

He Mei took out a document, ready to give a detailed report.

However, the girl showed a hint of awkwardness, clearly not wanting to listen.

A short-haired girl standing beside her interrupted He Mei in time, "President He, we can discuss work later. I have other important matters to discuss with the Miss. Please step out for now."

He Mei was stunned but nodded respectfully despite her doubts and carefully left the office to inspect the company.

"Phew, well done, Wanling."

Seeing He Mei leave, Jiang Luoyu breathed a sigh of relief. She was really afraid He Mei would start reporting work and waste a lot of time.

Su Wanling looked at her amusingly and said, "My dear Miss, what are you really here for?"

"To inspect the company, of course. What's wrong with that?" Jiang Luoyu said, but her eyes were evasive.

Su Wanling could see through her little thoughts and laughed, "Stop pretending. You're here to see him, aren't you?"

"I'm not, I didn't, don't talk nonsense."

Jiang Luoyu immediately denied it, her three consecutive denials making her look like someone.

Su Wanling said nothing, took out a piece of paper, and handed it to her, "Here, this is his address."

Jiang Luoyu's ears turned red, and she stubbornly said, "I told you, I'm here to inspect the company."

Despite her words, her eyes glanced at the paper.

"Where did you get this?"

"Of course, I had someone investigate. This guy is quite cunning, buying a house and a car to hide. Fortunately, thanks to your stepmother's connections, your family has strong ties with the police. This guy got into a fight and ended up in the police station recently, so it was easy to find him. In China, it's not that easy to hide."

Su Wanling said proudly.

"A fight? Who did he fight with?" Jiang Luoyu asked curiously.

"A bunch of drunk thugs. He even hurt his hand because of it," Su Wanling replied.

Jiang Luoyu frowned, displeased, "Why are there still thugs around? Is the city's security that bad? Inform the city bureau. It's time to clean up. Those who fought should be dealt with severely as a warning to others."

Su Wanling rolled her eyes and laughed, "Got it. I'll call the city bureau in a bit."

Jiang Luoyu finally felt at ease, looked at the address on the paper, and stood up, "Wanling, come with me to explore Jiangling."

"Sure, where do you want to go, Miss?"

"Just wander around."

"Alright, I'll have the driver wait downstairs and prepare the car fleet."

"No, no need for a fleet. That's too flashy. Let's just take a regular car, and you can be the driver."

"Alright, alright, I'm so unlucky~"

"You're such a talker."
