Young Master in Flower City

Chapter 33: It's a Small World



Qingcheng International, power core, CEO's office.

At this moment, Ye Qingcheng was sitting upright in the office chair, dressed in standard business attire, her right hand playing with a pen, exuding a naturally cold aura that seemed destined for the role of a CEO.

Opposite her sat Information Department Manager Yun Moxi, holding a document in hand, appearing extraordinarily respectful.

Ye Qingcheng spoke coolly: "Any leads on the person I asked you to investigate yesterday?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Moxi felt speechless. Of course there were no leads. You only provided the gender, no other information at all. Where am I supposed to find this man? Besides, I'm not the Bodhisattva Guanyin, able to divine with just a pinch of the fingers who it might be. This is clearly harder than finding a needle in a haystack.

Moreover, you only asked me to start investigating yesterday. It's just been one day; how can anyone find the person who violated you so quickly? Even if Zhuge Liang were alive, he wouldn't be able to be this quick.

Thinking this, Yun Moxi said respectfully: "No leads yet!"

"Didn't you go check the surveillance at Royal One?" Ye Qingcheng asked, her demeanor growing colder, recalling the crimson mess on the bed that night; her mood inexplicably soured.

"I did. Here is the surveillance data from Royal One!" Yun Moxi replied, handing Ye Qingcheng the hard drive encased in the document. She continued, "The surveillance footage only shows his back, you can't see his face at all!"

Actually, Yun Moxi wanted to say, this is really goddamn untraceable, boss.

Taking the hard drive, Ye Qingcheng inserted it into the Apple computer on the desk, pressed the keyboard twice, and quickly images appeared. As Yun Moxi had stated, they were all of the man's back; his face couldn't be seen at all, obviously tampered with.

Ye Qingcheng suspected that Xiao Tianyu intentionally tampered with it, a flash of anger flitting across her calm face. How despicable, utterly despicable, not leaving a single clue.

Though Ye Qingcheng knew the shameless bastard's appearance, what was the use of that? He wasn't standing right in front of her. How to describe him; just go searching based on "so damn handsome"?

"Get busy with your work first, let's set this matter aside for now," Ye Qingcheng told Yun Moxi, who suddenly felt relieved, her whole body relaxed, and she nodded: "Alright, CEO!"

Saying this, she turned and left. Once out of the CEO's office, Yun Moxi exhaled a long breath, but suddenly seemed to remember something, so she turned back to the CEO's office.

Ye Qingcheng paused for a moment, then asked: "Is there anything else?"

"Indeed there is one matter I think the CEO needs to be aware of!"

Thinking for a bit, Yun Moxi continued: "Two days ago, in Celestial Capital, a Fengxing Group was established. In addition, the projects operated by Fengxing Group were quite similar to our company's. According to what I've learned, this Fengxing Group's CEO is exceedingly powerful and ambitious, acquiring numerous big and small companies in Celestial Capital on the day of establishment, and declared that this is just the start of Fengxing International, aiming to be the dominant cross-national corporation in Celestial Capital. Also, Fengxing International posters are everywhere in the streets and alleys now!"

"I know!" Ye Qingcheng nodded and continued: "This matter need not weigh on your mind, it's just a company that has just started; there's no way it can shake Qingcheng International!"

"Oh!" Yun Moxi nodded.

...

Planning Department.

At this moment, the Planning Department was rather lively. Yesterday, Qingcheng International recruited a gentleman who was assigned to the Planning Department, and he was the sole man in the department, creating a slight fantasy for everyone, and even some female colleagues were visibly excited.

Usually, the Planning Department was all women, making the work particularly dull. Now, with the rare addition of a male colleague, one can imagine how excited the ladies were, akin to an emperor suddenly visiting the cold palace, reigniting their long-dormant hearts with fervent flames.

Moreover, looking around, the Planning Department consisted entirely of women who were practically campus beauties, charming urban beauties that were a feast for the eyes.

But it's no wonder; when Qingcheng International recruits, appearance counts, with each chosen from hundreds. This standard applies not only to the Planning Department, but across all departments.

"Is my long-lonely heart finally about to be saved?" one 'goddess' spoke infatuatedly: "I just wonder what this gentleman looks like. If he's even a little bit decent, you all better not compete with me!"

"Do you think your heart is the only one waiting to be saved?"

"Exactly!" another voluptuous 'goddess' chimed in: "Lin Xin, just don't count on it anymore. In terms of bosom or face, which aspect are you better than me!"

"I don't care. An emperor has finally visited the cold palace. Even if favored, the first to be favored has to be me, you all line up!" Lin Xin rolled her eyes, addressing the previous 'goddess': "What makes you say your bosom is big, your figure is good, you're merely dressed more provocatively. Tonight, I'm planning to shop for some sexy clothes!"

"Could you all stop arguing, it's just a man, is it necessary? If you want men, just go out and find some guys!" At this moment, a discordant voice sounded; the speaker was a woman dressed in light red office attire, with a rather voluptuous figure and slightly sorrowful phoenix-like eyes.

The beautiful eyes of the ladies turned towards this woman, without any intent to blame, for they all knew that lately, this woman's mood hasn't been very good.

Lin Xin showed concern, "Jiang Ya, has your mother's condition improved?"

"No!" Jiang Ya shook her head, tear glimmers sparkling in her beautiful eyes as she continued, "My mother needs major surgery, but the surgery costs twelve million!"

"What, twelve million!" The ladies reacted with horror, Cheng Jiaqing exclaimed: "What's up with Celestial Universe Hospital, that's too much! A surgery costing twelve million, might as well rob a bank..."

"Jiaqing, hold your tongue!" Lin Xin rolled her eyes at Cheng Jiaqing, and Cheng Jiaqing swallowed back her words.

"Isn't it strange though, I have a relative, also had cancer, had surgery at Celestial Universe, and it only cost 3 million, and now my relative is already cured. Is there some trick in this, or did you offend someone at the hospital?" a beautiful woman mused with gleaming eyes, expressing doubt.

Hearing this, the ladies' beautiful eyes twinkled too, twelve million for surgery was indeed exorbitant.

They all knew Jiang Ya's mother had lung cancer, and in Celestial Capital, aside from Celestial Universe Hospital, there's no other hospital that could treat it. However, the surgery fee at Celestial Universe was dreadfully high, far beyond the bearing of a salaried class.

Yet, twelve million for surgery, even at Celestial Universe, was unprecedented.

"Good morning, everyone!" At this moment, Human Resources Manager Li Kexin entered the Planning Department with a gentleman, continuing, "Today, I'm introducing a new employee to the Planning Department, hoping all the beautiful ladies will like him!"

"..."

No one responded, except Jiang Ya, because all the goddesses' eyes were glued to the gentleman behind Li Kexin, captivated by his exquisite perfect face. It was a flawless face, seemingly crafted by the divine, and accompanied by a perfect 1.8-meter tall figure, radiating an irresistible allure for any woman.

"It's him?"

Jiang Ya's eyes glanced at Xiao Tianyu instinctively. She first paused in surprise, then became angrily adorable. The guy who blackmailed her for three thousand yuan last night turned out to be the male employee the company recruited?

This world was indeed too small.
