Chapter 125 Working a day job and working as a gigolo at night
The nightclub was owned by the Zhu family. At 10 p.m., the security guards standing at the door with fierce looks greeted the young lady when they saw her arrive.
Zhu Lili nodded, and then entered the room under the guidance of the waiter.
Xie Junfei and Huo Shen both disliked this kind of industry that paid little but caused a lot of trouble. They couldn't make as much money as shopping malls and clubs, and the police kept coming to their door to check things. The cost-effectiveness was really not high.
Only Zhu Wensheng likes to cause trouble in places like this.
Xie Junfei took a seat in the booth, while Zhu Lili flitted around like a butterfly.
Huo Shen sent her a message on her phone early in the morning, saying that he was going to Shanghai on a business trip for two days and that she should stay at home.
Xie Junfei picked up his wine glass and readily agreed with a series of "uh-huhs".
Anyway, he's already in Shanghai. Does he really think he can travel thousands of miles to catch me?
She was about to reply to the message when a pair of slender hands handed her a glass of wine. Xie Junfei lowered her eyes and saw the man wearing an elegant shirt with well-tailored sleeves and cuffs, as well as a watch on his wrist.
Van Cleef & Arpels' Starry Night collection starts at 2.2 million US dollars.
Looking up again, I saw the same male escort who had been "handpicked" by Zhu Lili to join the company that morning.
Xie Junfei raised an eyebrow and subtly took the wine glass from his hand. The temperature was transmitted to his hand through the glass, and it felt warm.
The commercial duck's voice was gentle and pleasant:
"Seeing you clutching your lower abdomen, I guess you're on your period, so I asked someone to bring you warm water."
Xie Junfei casually put down the cup and made a casual remark:
"What? Xie Wenzhou is paying such a low salary? Is our vice president so poor that he has to work as a gigolo after get off work?"
The vice president smiled modestly:
"You flatter me, young lady."
"I passed by the coffee shop this afternoon and saw you through the window. I didn't expect the manager to mistake you for a special worker and pull you in with me."
Hearing him say that, Xie Junfei chuckled lightly, neither agreeing nor disagreeing, and crossed his legs.
She only met this vice president once, when Xie Wenzhou went to Europe for a roadshow and she went to Xie Wenzhou's company to help her older brother with some company affairs.
When the vice president came in to report, Xie Junfei was too busy to look up and listened to him without even looking up.
Therefore, I didn't remember the face, but I did remember the voice.
Later, she logged into Xie Wenzhou's email and saw the vice president's name: "Chi Jingchuan".
In the past, this name would never have caught her attention.
But now that she's with Huo Shen, she has a deep understanding of the meaning of "Beijing Circle".
The Beijing Circle is a complex web of power and influence, with various second and third-generation elites holding vast amounts of wealth and power. Once you're on the same page, you're all in the same boat.
Chi Jingchuan, Chi, Mr. Chi.
Xie Junfei looked up and, for the first time, met Chi Jingchuan's gaze seriously:
"Mr. Chi, what is your relationship with Chi Xu?"
Chi Jingchuan's smile was gentle:
“My elder brother is unruly and has been with Mr. Xie for a long time. I hope Mr. Xie will take good care of him.”
Xie Junfei understood; since he knew Chi Xu, they were all on the same side.
Thinking of this, Xie Junfei loosened the buttons on his shirt, leaned back on the sofa, and teased him:
"Your Chi family is considered a scholarly family, but the younger generation is divided into a soldier and a businessman. They are truly rebellious."
Chi Jingchuan waved his hand and poured himself a glass of wine:
"It's no fun following the path laid out by our parents. It's much better to forge your own path."
This idea coincided with Xie Junfei's, and she raised an eyebrow:
"I didn't expect Mr. Chi's spiritual needs to be so strong."
The DJ switched to a softer English song, and the restless atmosphere on the dance floor quieted down slightly.
Chi Jingchuan narrowed his eyes as he watched the young people swaying on the dance floor:
“Our family is not short of money or power. Once we have enough material needs, we can start to pursue a rich spiritual world.”
"Besides, isn't Mr. Xie the same way? He could easily win by relying on Chairman Huo, but now he insists on relying on himself."
"We are all the same kind of people."
After saying that, he took another sip of wine, the golden liquid shimmering in the glass, dazzling many people.
Chi Jingchuan was good-looking and well-dressed, clearly a young nobleman. After he sat down next to Xie Junfei, people kept coming up to chat with him.
Xie Junfei watched as he politely rejected wave after wave of men and women, and narrowed her eyes slightly:
"Mr. Chi, I don't think this is a good place to have a heart-to-heart talk or discuss business."
"What brings you here to see me?"
Seeing the wary girl in front of him, Chi Jingchuan stopped beating around the bush and spoke frankly:
"For Xie Wenzhou."
Upon hearing this, Xie Junfei immediately stood up:
"My older brother isn't gay, you've asked the wrong person."
Seeing that she was about to leave, Chi Jingchuan panicked and grabbed her arm.
"No! It's for your third brother!"
"My third brother isn't gay either!"
Chi Jingchuan was completely confused by this word:
"No, I'm not talking about gay stuff, I'm talking about serious matters!"
"I'm straight!"
Seeing that this person wasn't after her brother's butt, Xie Junfei sat down again, looking suspicious.
"Then what are you doing?"
Chi Jingchuan let out a soft breath:
"Let's find a place to talk this out properly. I feel that you have a very deep misunderstanding about me."
Xie Junfei smiled noncommittally.
After all, she was really scared.
The two things a company should avoid most are running a family business and having relatives work as employees.
Even a large and established company like the Huo family has to pay attention to this, let alone a small startup like theirs.
If Chi Jingchuan dared to say today that he wanted to become the eldest daughter-in-law of the Xie family, Xie Junfei wouldn't need to wait until tomorrow; she could bypass Xie Wenzhou and fire the HR person today.
Anyway, she's a major shareholder of the company, so she can do whatever she wants.
Five minutes later, Chi Jingchuan followed Xie Junfei upstairs.
Chi Jingchuan was somewhat puzzled as he watched her find the elevator with such ease.
How did you know there were meeting rooms and lounges upstairs?
Xie Junfei put down her phone, which was texting Zhu Lili, and calmly said:
"Because this bar is owned by the Zhu family, and I own six percent of the Zhu family's shares."
Chi Jingchuan fell silent.
Xie Junfei put his hands in his pockets and looked up at the floor the elevator was ascending.
Last year during the Spring Festival, Zhu's mother had someone send documents to the Huo family's old residence, presenting Xie Junfei with six percent of the Zhu family's shares as a coming-of-age gift.
To express his gratitude, Xie Wenzhou also gave the Zhu family 6% of his Xie Group shares as a return gift.
Although this was clearly a losing proposition for the Zhu family.
However, this move also serves as a message to the outside world that Xie Junfei is the Zhu family's goddaughter, and that the Xie and Huo families, who are backed by Xie Junfei, will become allies of the Zhu family.
The three families will be bound together by marriage, sharing the same fate in the capital.
