Mu Lingshi still was not willing to rest much. When she went to work the next day, she appeared at the same company building as Ah Mo. The two of them waited on the side of the road as they chatted about something.
Mu Lingshi was staying at the Mu residence temporarily so that she could spend more time with w.a.n.g Hui and the rest. Ah Mo had returned to the Mu residence these past few days too. The attention that he had put in was worth mulling over.
Xi Xiaye parked her car, then took her briefcase and got down before walking towards them.
“Morning, Sis-in-law!”
“Morning, Missus!”
She had just gotten nearer when the two of them called out at the same time.
Ah Mo was still wearing a black, well-fitted suit while Mu Lingshi was dressed the same as when she had returned the other day. The only difference was her inner white blouse had been changed to a black one, while the coat outside was swapped for a white one. Her dark purple hair tumbled down her shoulders, and she still donned the huge sungla.s.ses, almost covering her little face. She looked reserved.
Previously, Mu Yuchen did say that Mu Lingshi had been the one watching over the night clubs in France. She was still wondering how a girl like her could hold down such ma.s.sive crowds, but now that she thought about it, she realized she had worried unnecessarily.
Actually, when she looked at the two of them, she thought that they matched each other quite well. If they really loved each other, it would be brilliant if they got together, but…
Xi Xiaye sighed to herself. When she went even closer, a faint ripple flashed across her delicate face. She nodded gladly and smiled. “Why don’t you two go in first? It’s pretty cold out here.”
As she said this, she looked up at the sky. Some sunlight was shining down from the horizon, but the cold winds kept coming. It was still quite chilly.
“We just reached too. We knew that you weren’t here yet, so we waited,” Mu Lingshi answered.
“Let’s go in first. I’ve previously arranged a doc.u.ment about the situation over there for your brother. How about this? Ah Mo, bring Ah Shi to your brother’s office first. I’ll go take my things to my office before I go over. The doc.u.ment is in the drawer of his desk.”
…
Then, they walked into the building.
Xi Xiaye went straight to her own office. After putting the things down, she went straight up to the 58th floor. Outside Mu Yuchen’s office, Ah Mo and Mu Lingshi were already waiting.
Xi Xiaye quickly unlocked the door with the keycard in her pocket.
“This is the situation over there, and this is the list of names for the people-in-charge and their contact numbers. It’s been pretty happening there recently and business is booming. I’ve also made them close for a while during the holidays. Tonight, we’ll be open for business again.”
Xi Xiaye took out the doc.u.ment from the drawer and handed it to Mu Lingshi.
“How’s business?” Mu Lingshi reached out to take it and casually asked.
“After the opening launch, all of the departments are pretty much on track. It’s been going pretty well. Now, the few people-in-charge are all experienced, so you don’t have to feel too pressured either.” The person who had spoken was Ah Mo.
Mu Lingshi shrugged indifferently as she flipped the doc.u.ment open and briefly read through it. Quite a while after that, she lifted a hand to fix her sungla.s.ses, then she looked up at Xi Xiaye and asked, “Don’t worry, Sis-in-law. The problem shouldn’t be that huge. Can I go over to take a look now?”
“Mmm, I’ve already called the managers-in-charge. They should be waiting there already. Ah Mo, you can go along with her since you’re more familiar with the place.”
Xi Xiaye closed the drawer, then walked out with the two of them following closely behind.
The Imperial Sky Entertainment Club was part of Imperial Sky Entertainment City. Naturally, it would not be open in the day. The theme was a diverse nightlife, a place for people to forget their worries.
When they reached Imperial Sky Entertainment Club, Su Chen called Ah Mo and said that they wanted to gather at night, mainly to welcome Mu Lingshi home, but the venue they decided upon was Imperial Sky Entertainment Club. You could tell that he was just looking for people to drink and hang out with him.
From the sound of his tone, one could guess that Mu Lingshi should be quite close to them.
“Ah Shi, this is Xiao Yu, a temporary a.s.sistant for you. There’s more work here. He’s more familiar with the situation here. Xiao Yu, this is Manager Mu. The company sent her over to replace Manager Ah Mo. You’ll a.s.sist Manager Mu in familiarizing herself with the work here.”
A comfortable and elegant office had been prepared for Mu Lingshi at Imperial Entertainment Club. Xi Xiaye reached out to pull open the curtains, letting the faint light pour in through the half-opaque gla.s.s window. Her voice was slightly hoa.r.s.e as she introduced Mu Lingshi to the handsome and experienced Xiao Yu.
“h.e.l.lo, Manager Mu, I’m Xiao Yu!” Xiao Yu quickly smiled and said.
Mu Lingshi turned and followed Xi Xiaye’s gaze to look at Xiao Yu, then she nodded and greeted, “Pleased to meet you.”
“This will be your office. Previously, it was left to be your brother’s temporary office, but he doesn’t really come here that many times in a year. Let me know if you’re happy with the style of decor.”
When Xi Xiaye said that, Mu Lingshi waved her hand, a rare ease gracing the corner of her lips. “Okay, Sis-in-law. I don’t care much for these things as long they’re provided.”
Xi Xiaye smiled and responded, “I’m just worried that you won’t be used to this place since you just returned.”
Then, she took out the keys and the driving license from her pocket before handing it to Mu Lingshi. “These are the office keys and your driver’s license. Keep them properly. Later, Ah Mo will get your car with you.”
Of course, Xi Xiaye was not planning on being their lightbulb. She introduced all the other people-in-charge briefly, explained the work scope, then let Ah Mo bring her around to familiarize while she left first.
After she left Imperial Sky Entertainment City, Xi Xiaye went back to Glory World, but she had gone straight up to Vice President Liu’s office to discuss matters about Yueying.
Vice President Liu had been quite busy recently with Ah Mo’s work on developing Movie City, and also the previous ruckus caused by Xi Xinyi at Yueying. He had spent a lot of effort on negotiating deals for quite a few movies, then spent time promoting the rookies. Only then did the rumors start to dissipate. Naturally, she was concerned about this.
When she knocked on his office door, Liu Lingyu was reviewing some doc.u.ments.
When Liu Lingyu saw Xi Xiaye, he immediately set the doc.u.ments in his hand aside and stood up. “Director Xi, you’re here! I was just going to get my secretary to get you!”
Xi Xiaye nodded slightly with a smile. “I just came up to take a look. I heard that you’ve been so busy that even your rest time’s been shaved. Coincidentally, the South River project doc.u.ments have been handed in. I’m free for a few days, so I came to see if there’s anything I can help out with.”
