Everyone could see the change in Zheng Yue, but they had an unspoken mutual understanding and chose not to discuss it openly.
Everyone in the dormitory left one after another to welcome the winter break.
Murong Qiao, who had had a lot of time, finally started to be a proper boss as she started to show her face in the company every day.
“Phew—” She let out a sigh of relief.
Today’s doc.u.ments were finally done. Murong Qiao stretched her sore neck and picked up her phone to see if there was any news.
[The a.s.sistant job doesn’t seem very difficult.] It was Zheng Yue’s message.
Her connection with Zheng Yue had not been cut off because of the winter break and Murong Qiao had been paying attention to Zheng Yue and Nan Kang’s progress.
[It’s great that you’re good at it.] Murong Qiao replied after some thought.
[1 was dragged out to attend a banquet today.] Zheng Yue immediately replied.
It was easy to sense that she saw Murong Qiao as a close friend from her words. She had even sent an emoji in a good mood.
Then, Murong Qiao received a photo that Zheng Yue had taken herself.
In the photo, Zheng Yue tried her best to straighten her body in the mirror. The most eye-catching thing was the luxurious gown she was wearing and the set of jewelry on her neck and earlobes.
It was said that clothes made the person. This was very well reflected by Zheng Yue.
If one didn’t know Zheng Yue’s background, people who saw this photo might really think that she came from a good background. Moreover, she had been influenced by Nan Kang recently. At least, it was hard for Murong Qiao to recall Zheng Yue’s past when looking at her.
[Good luck,] Murong Qiao replied simply.
Meanwhile, Zheng Yue, who was in the banquet washroom, looked at her phone screen with a glint in her eyes.
She ended her conversation with Murong Qiao and turned to walk out of the washroom. There was a waiter waiting for her outside.
“Young Miss Zheng, this way.” The waiter led the way for her.
This was probably the best banquet that Nan Kang had brought her to. The scale alone was shocking, and the entire building was booked.
Zheng Yue followed the waiter back to the event location in high spirits. She imitated the actions of others and picked up a gla.s.s of wine.
Her sharing with Murong Qiao was a result of the latter’s occasional concern. After all, Murong Qiao was the one who introduced her to this work. Zheng Yue wouldn’t hate her as much as she hated the other two people. She was even very happy to reply to Murong Qiao’s messages.
Besides, she was the eldest daughter of the Murong family. Zheng Yue’s mind was not only focused on studying now. During the time she had been with Nan Kang, she had realized the power of the rich and powerful.
Zheng Yue also gradually realized how good Murong Qiao’s ident.i.ty was. It was so good that she sometimes unconsciously imagined that if she were Murong Qiao, her life would change drastically.
The banquets she could attend would be even better and the friends she’d meet would be all Young Masters and socialites who could buy countless clothes and jewelry with just a casual remark.
Every time Zheng Yue thought of that kind of life, she became even more determined to work hard. She wanted to climb up and use any power she could to lead a better life.
“How’s it going? Are you feeling well?” Just as Zheng Yue was deep in thought, Nan Kang came over.
She had just excused herself to the washroom, and Nan Kang’s concern was just right.
Zheng Yue quickly shook her head and smiled. “I’m fine now.”
Why would she want to go home and rest?
Previously, Zheng Yue had her period at work. When she chatted with Nan Kang, she casually said that her stomach hurt a little. Then, she was immediately approved to go home and rest.
Although she knew that Nan Kang was concerned, Zheng Yue’s position was not yet an official position and therefore did not cover paid leave.
She was still very poor.
“That’s good. If the banquet makes you uncomfortable, you may go back early,” Nan Kang reminded her worriedly.
He spoke in the tone of an elder who was concerned about a youngster. It was also the tone Zheng Yue was most familiar with.
She didn’t think too much about it, but that didn’t mean that the other party did not.
Many of Nan Kang’s friends had recently found out that he was especially fond of his a.s.sistant, and as a result there were also many people who became interested in her.
After all, Nan Kang’s ex-wife was dead and his wife was imprisoned. Now that he was middle-aged and had fallen in love with a young lady, it could be considered a common problem for company CEOs.
“A man doesn’t know how to spend the money he has.” A woman at the banquet sneered.
She was talking about Nan Kang and Zheng Yue. Anyway, this was not a secret in the eyes of people like them who were well socialized.
Looking at Zheng Yue’s expensive and dazzling gown, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that Nan Kang treated Zheng Yue pretty well.
Murong Qiao also received many messages from Zheng Yue.
[The pastries at the banquet are delicious. Unfortunately, the boss keeps dragging me to meet many people…]
[It’s so tiring to wear this gown. 1 feel like my waist is about to break.]
[However, Boss is a very good person. He always cares about me. I thought that the bosses of such companies were all stern, meticulous, and impersonal but he’s not the same at all.]
There were all kinds of messages, and most of them were about small things.
Murong Qiao only took a look most of the time and didn’t reply. The work on her hands was far more important than this.
However, after the two of them communicated deliberately, Zheng Yue and Murong Qiao’s relationship became better.
Murong Qiao would check her cell phone every once in a while and there would already be five or six messages from Zheng Yue.
However, Murong Qiao was also very happy to learn about their progress from the person involved.
Murong Qiao was in a daze at the thought of Zheng Yue and forgot that she was in the company office and that Jiang Chi was standing in front of her.
“Boss?” Jiang Chi called her.
While the two of them were talking just now, Jiang Chi finished his report and waited for instructions. In the end, Murong Qiao did not speak for a long time.
Puzzled, he raised his head slightly to take a look. Only then did he realize that his boss was lost in thought.
“It’s fine.” Murong Qiao’s gaze focused on her again. She then looked at Jiang Chi. “Has the production team finished?”
She still remembered that the topic of conversation between her and Jiang Chi was about her Fifth Brother, Xian Yu.
The filming of “Fearless” progressed very quickly. As the original author, Murong Qiao had always asked Jiang Chi to pay attention to what was going on over there.
After completing filming, it meant that they would have to go online and appear in front of the public.
“The production team announced that they were done filming two days ago. Director Liu Cheng has also been busy online recently.” Jiang Chi nodded. “In addition, many people have come to the company recently to ask you about your other book.”
The completion of the filming of Fearless did not mean an end. Instead, it meant the start of the filming of Wulin Universe.
Murong Qiao did not waste this semester. In order to catch up with the production team’s progress, Wulin Universe was successfully completed.
This was also the reason why many people had come to the company recently. They were all targeting the new work of Moon G.o.ddess.
Although the previous book “Fearless” had not been broadcasted yet and there were no results as a reference, Xian Yu and Liu Cheng’s names were already involved. Moreover, the investors were especially generous. The budget could be said to be extremely high. No matter how one looked at it, their results after being released would not be bad.
“Got it,” Murong Qiao replied, clearly confident.
Jiang Chi didn’t ask further when he heard Murong Qiao’s words. He then took the doc.u.ments and left.
Murong Qiao also took this opportunity to walk around the company and greet many employees who were still at their posts.
Unlike traditional bosses, Murong Qiao was very friendly with the employees. There was no tension when they met each other so many people even took the initiative to greet her.
“Shi Yang has been developing exceptionally well these past two days. Although the others haven’t become popular, they’ve still made some progress,” the recording director added.
Shi Yang had gained a lot of fans, with more than a million followers on Weibo. He could be said to be the top artist in the company at the moment..
