Chapter 293: Chapter 266 Imperial Power Club
Gu Group, Translation Department.
An Zhiyi left, and He Xin was promoted to team leader.
The deputy team leader came from another team.
His name is Meng Yuchuan.
In his original team, Meng Yuchuan was supposed to be promoted to team leader after the new year.
The assistant director had secretly hinted this to him before the year ended.
But after the new year came, the team leader position was taken by someone else.
He didn’t even get the deputy team leader position.
This time it’s kind of a make-up.
In the morning, Meng Yuchuan came and gave every member of their team a small gift. He wears round glasses, has a fair and delicate complexion, and smiles very charmingly.
Moreover, he handles things smoothly and considerately.
Not only did he give everyone small gifts, but he also thoughtfully got water for Qiao Yuxian.
Qiao Yuxian stood up to thank him, and Meng Yuchuan almost bowed saying it was no problem.
Qiao Yuxian watched him leave, and after sitting back down, continued to feel uninterested in life.
Zhao Meng saw her expression and kept laughing beside her.
"What’s so funny?" Qiao Yuxian looked at her and said.
Zhao Meng laughed even harder for a couple more seconds.
Qiao Yuxian stared at her, and after a while said, "How’s your paper going?"
The smile on Zhao Meng’s face vanished instantly: "That’s not very friendly of you."
Qiao Yuxian finally laughed: "What’s up? Not going well?"
"My dear advisor said, can the column for your thesis advisor be filled with Old Zheng next to his desk." Zhao Meng said slowly.
"Why?" Qiao Yuxian asked.
"My advisor and this teacher called Old Zheng don’t get along." Zhao Meng said.
Qiao Yuxian chuckled.
Zhao Meng sighed: "What about you? What did your advisor say?"
"Mine?" Qiao Yuxian said, "My advisor probably hasn’t looked at it yet, she’s been busy lately and hasn’t found the time."
Zhao Meng nodded.
"Ah." Qiao Yuxian sighed again, "Did you see in the group chat? Zhou Yunbing and Han Yangliu are planning where to go for fun."
"I saw that." Zhao Meng looked at her own work and sighed too, "Suddenly feeling a bit envious of them."
"It’s too late to be envious now." Qiao Yuxian said.
"Ah." Both sighed softly together.
Then... that’s how half of Qiao Yuxian’s day went.
No work was arranged for her.
Besides, Lin You and Xu Qingqing didn’t dare speak to her.
While working, they glanced at her several times, but when she looked over, they pretended to work seriously.
At lunchtime, Qiao Yuxian went upstairs to eat.
She waited until most people had left before she took the private elevator to the top floor.
On the top floor, she went straight to Gu Yanjing’s office.
She knocked twice outside, waited a while, then pushed the door open and went in.
She found out that not only Chu Zhengran and Lin Huai Shu were there, but Liu Zhou was also present.
Qiao Yuxian looked at them and then looked at Gu Yanjing.
Gu Yanjing looked at her, then looked to his side, motioning for her to come over.
As Qiao Yuxian walked over, she glanced at Liu Zhou.
While Liu Zhou looked at the employee badge hanging around her neck.
He never knew the four big characters "Gu Group" could be so conspicuous.
"Hello, little sister-in-law," Lin Huai Shu said, "Your employee badge is pretty nice, it looks familiar."
"It should be familiar." Qiao Yuxian sat down beside Gu Yanjing and said, "This person is my direct superior now."
Liu Zhou looked at them, his mouth twitching.
She has so many companies, why did she specifically come here for an internship?
Liu Zhou couldn’t figure it out.
He even felt that Gu Yanjing’s lovey-dovey demeanor had infected Sister Xian.
"Yanjing, you’ve got guts," Lin Huai Shu looked at him and said, "You actually let the little sister-in-law work for you, that’s too much."
Qiao Yuxian nodded vigorously.
Lin Huai Shu continued, "Little sister-in-law, he’s being so excessive, you should separate from him to teach him a lesson."
"Do I need to have someone find you a feng shui spot right now?" Gu Yanjing suddenly said coldly.
Once he spoke, Lin Huai Shu’s heart trembled, feeling the office temperature drop sharply.
What’s picking a feng shui spot for?
What else could it be for?
For his eternal rest, of course.
Lin Huai Shu scooted further into the sofa, shutting his mouth, saying nothing.
Qiao Yuxian laughed again,
Gu Yanjing squeezed her hand and said: "Meng Yan went to buy lunch, he’ll be back shortly."
"Okay." Qiao Yuxian asked, "Were you talking about the Yadang Clubhouse or Feng Chuanbai?"
"We were just talking about the Yadang Clubhouse, now we’re on to Feng Chuanbai." Liu Zhou said.
Qiao Yuxian looked at Liu Zhou.
Liu Zhou immediately said: "We’ve sent someone to investigate the Yadang Clubhouse, it’s currently being tracked secretly without alerting anyone. There’s no movement from Feng Chuanbai so far."
Chu Zhengran and Lin Huai Shu watched Qiao Yuxian and Liu Zhou.
They both had a feeling.
That Qiao Yuxian has been using Liu Zhou for many years.
She didn’t even need to give him a look, and Liu Zhou knew what she wanted to know.
"Maybe you should act your part better." Qiao Yuxian joked.
"I’m the boss of the Lin Group," Lin Huai Shu said, "My acting is at an S-tier movie emperor level, how could it not be on-point."
Gu Yanjing looked at him, paused, and said: "You’re the most exaggerated."
Lin Huai Shu looked at him and said nothing.
Chu Zhengran chuckled.
Qiao Yuxian also chuckled.
Liu Zhou continued, "It seems the transactions at Yadang Clubhouse are connected to the Imperial Power Club."
"Imperial Power Club?" Qiao Yuxian thought for a moment and said, "The one in Jin City?"
"Little sister-in-law, how do you know so many places?" Lin Huai Shu asked curiously.
Qiao Yuxian swept her hand through her bangs with arrogance and said, "During my first and second year, I wasn’t on campus during the weekends, I’ve almost toured everywhere domestically."
Gu Yanjing turned his head to look at her,
Qiao Yuxian looked back at him: "Impressive, right?"
"Yeah." Gu Yanjing responded.
Qiao Yuxian laughed even more joyfully.
Liu Zhou glanced at the two, lowered his eyes, and sipped tea.
Why does it seem that being in love is kind of fun?
"Who’s the owner of the Imperial Power Club in Jin City?" Qiao Yuxian asked.
"Yan Zhiyao." Gu Yanjing said.
"Yan Zhiyao?" Qiao Yuxian hadn’t heard of this person, "What’s his story?"
"An orphan." Gu Yanjing said, "The previous owner was Chen He. He had no family, no children. Yan Zhiyao grew up in an orphanage and acknowledged Chen He as his godfather at eighteen. A year later, Chen He passed away, and the club ended up with Yan Zhiyao."
Liu Zhou, who wanted to speak, swallowed his words back upon seeing Gu Yanjing say so much at once.
Thinking to himself: So this guy can talk this much.
Qiao Yuxian nodded and said, "What’s the connection between the Imperial Power Club and the Yadang Clubhouse?"
"None." Gu Yanjing interrupted Liu Zhou again, "The transactions at Yadang Clubhouse were also done at the Imperial Power Club."
Qiao Yuxian understood.
The transactions at Yadang Clubhouse likely had something to do with its owner.
And the Imperial Power Club had similar activities.
Gu Yanjing and the others suspected that the owner of the Imperial Power Club might also be involved in those dealings.
So they included the Imperial Power Club in their investigation scope.
