Charm point maxed out, inheriting game assets

Chapter 235: Chapter 181 President Tang, Tang Song Chapter 235: Chapter 181 President Tang, Tang Song Du Shaokai from the School of Computer Science and Technology, class of ’16, was quite popular during his college days.

He was handsome, drove a sedan, was outgoing, and spent money lavishly.

He knew Qiu Yu and Wang Ning from the student council in the same school, and their relationship was quite good.

However, after graduation, they barely kept in touch, limiting their interactions to occasionally liking each other’s posts on social media.

But for Du Shaokai, who was currently in dire straits, this was a lifesaver.

These rich second-generation fools didn’t care about him, but a few capable alumni had helped him break free.

Du Shaokai heavily set down his glass, quickly stood up, and walked over with a smile on his face.

He clapped Wang Ning on the shoulder and chuckled, “Not bad, Wang Ning. You’re doing pretty well now, aren’t you? That POLO shirt and the little watch make you look quite the successful man.”

Wang Ning lifted his eyebrows proudly, “Not too bad.”

Then, Du Shaokai walked over to Qiu Yu with a cheeky grin and opened his arms, “Jing, it’s been almost three years since we’ve seen each other. A hug wouldn’t be too much, right?”

Qiu Yu smiled, lightly patting his arm, “You rascal, you’ve grown three years older but you’re still as mischievous as ever.”

“That’s called staying true to myself! A man remains a boy until his death!”

They joked and laughed for a while.

Though Qiu Yu was all smiles, her gaze at Du Shaokai still bore some lingering sentiments.

During their college years, she had actually developed a fondness for Du Shaokai.

After all, he was good-looking, well-conditioned, understood romance, spoke sweet nothings, and could play the guitar, which made him very popular among the girls in the student council.

However, she later realized he was quite a flirt, having several girlfriends inside and outside the campus.

Eventually, her little crush faded, and she hadn’t planned on meeting him during her trip to Yan City.

Yet, as fate would have it, just as she stepped into the second floor of the bar, she spotted that somewhat familiar figure.

Pretending to be calm, she approached him and then called out his name.

Three years had passed, and he seemed more mature.

With a classic side part, a black embroidered shirt, and khaki pants, he looked suave yet retained a hint of rogue charm when he smiled.

It was as if she had been transported back to those bright, sunny days on the college campus.

Du Shaokai glanced around and asked thoughtfully, pointing to a group of alumni nearby, “These seem to be your classmates from the software engineering program, right? You are… Lu… Lu Ziming?”

Since they weren’t in the student council, he wasn’t familiar with the others, only exchanging friendly smiles when they met at school.

However, he still remembered Lu Ziming, a rich second-generation student and a notable figure at the school.

“Hello,” Lu Ziming nodded, not saying much as they weren’t close.

He was around 178 cm tall, with a strong, rugged facial structure, and although not handsome, he had a likable appearance.

“Indeed, they are all my college classmates,” Qiu Yu said as she gathered her wandering thoughts, pointing toward the seating area behind him and curiously asking, “Are these your friends?”

In the years she had worked in pre-sales technical support since entering society, she had met many people and developed a keen eye.

From the attire and demeanor of this group of men and women, she could discern quite a lot.

Du Shaokai’s expression stiffened slightly, pretending to be casual as he responded, “They’re all colleagues from the company, out for a team-building event.”

Just then, a girl sitting next to Qi Wen stood up and waved at them, saying boldly, “Lu Ziming, long time no see.”

Lu Ziming paused, looking at her intently a few times in surprise, “Pei Xinxin?”

“Haha, don’t tell me you almost didn’t recognize me? You haven’t changed much,” Pei Xinxin covered her mouth and laughed lightly.

Lu Ziming nodded and complimented, “You’ve become even prettier than before.”

Pei Xinxin was a match-making candidate his father had introduced to him while he was in his third year of graduate school.

The two had been friends for a while, but due to a lack of spark, their relationship had fizzled out.

Not having seen her for over half a year, Pei Xinxin had changed her hairstyle, wore heavy makeup, and dressed very sexily, which made her quite different from the way he remembered.

Amid the dim bar lighting, if she hadn’t spoken up, Lu Ziming wouldn’t have recognized her at all.

Qi Wen crossed her legs and asked, “Xinxin, is this your friend?”

Pei Xinxin turned her head and said cheerfully, “Yes, Ziming’s sister is a sales supervisor at Zhongcheng Group, and she works with my uncle.”

She spoke politely, but in reality, Lu Ziming’s sister was just a supervisor of a small sales team, while her uncle was the manager of the sales department.

“Oh?” Li Junyi raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, “Yufan, I remember your family owns shares in Zhongcheng Group, right?”

Liang Yufan took a sip of his drink and casually said, “Just a little, around 2%.”

Qi Wen blinked and added, “Then it’s Supervisor Tian; her father is a major shareholder and executive director of Zhongcheng Group.”

“Ah, I almost forgot about Jing, she’s always so low-key and never hangs out with us,” Qi Wen continued.

…

Listening to the conversation in the booth, Lu Ziming and Qiu Yu felt their hearts jump.

What kind of background was this? It seemed impressive.

Lu Ziming was quite familiar with his sister’s company.

A well-known industrial corporation in Yan City, deeply entrenched in industries like textiles and standard parts for many years, with a net worth over 1.2 billion and nearly 3,500 employees.

Being stakeholders and directors of such an industrial group, it was clear to see how influential they were.

Especially now that he had joined Tiancheng Capital, his understanding had become even clearer.

Rich second-generation individuals also had their own circles, like him and these people.
