Charm point maxed out, inheriting game assets

PM.

Shen City, Qianhai Free Trade Zone.

[TY Precision] Innovation Center.

The winter sunlight slanted in, painting the spacious, steady space with a layer of gold.

Ouyang Xianyue sat leaning over her desk, scattered across the large surface were the technical route maps of [Xuanji Light Realm], the global supply chain compliance report, and a memo of board meeting points.

Yet at this moment, she wasn’t looking at the screen, but lowered her eyes, writing flowing cursive lines with a fountain pen on A4 paper.

”...Silken threads lightly entwine the red jade arm, small charms hang askew on the green cloud knot. The beauty meets a thousand years.”

As she wrote the final line, her wrist paused slightly.

Behind her, it seemed there was again that warm, broad chest pressing from behind.

The hot breath sprayed beside her neck, the large hand wrapped around her wrist, leading her to roam freely on the rice paper...

Her heartbeat accelerated slightly.

The noblewoman’s lips unknowingly curled into a faint smile she herself hadn’t noticed.

Indeed, a few traces of an irresistibly youthful longing showed.

But the next moment, she promptly returned to her senses, the smile vanished instantly, restoring her usual grace.

She slightly furrowed her brow, realizing she had been too frequently distracted today.

Ever since last night ”being forced” to reveal her hand before Su Yu, she subtly passed the signal of her decision to ”enter the fray” precisely, by leveraging Zheng Qiudong’s pervasive ”mouth”.

Chairman Jin, Mo Xiangwan, Wu Kezhi...

They probably all know by now.

At this moment, those people are surely frantically speculating her motives, urgently assessing the potential chain reaction of this power shift.

This is exactly the result she wanted.

The opening move, has already been made.

Next, it depends on how Jin Weixiao will respond.

Anyway, for now, she has accepted it.

This means she can openly do some things that were previously inconvenient.

”Ding—”

The desk phone rang, cutting off her thoughts.

She pressed the answer button.

Secretary Chen Jing’s steady voice came through: ”Miss Ouyang, Qin Yingxue from [Smile Holding] and Ms. Anne Kate from [Kate Trust] have arrived, waiting in the VIP guest room downstairs.”

Ouyang Xianyue gently closed the document, her voice steady: ”Please have them come up.”

A few minutes later.

The office door was softly knocked.

Secretary Chen led in two figures with distinctly different presences.

Leading the way was Anne Kate.

Today, she wore a stylish light gray business suit, with a white silk blouse underneath, but the collar was casually undone by two buttons, revealing a plentiful, breathtakingly white cleavage.

Her dazzling blonde hair cascaded like seaweed, her emerald green eyes sparkled with bright light, filled with unabashed aggression.

Qin Yingxue followed closely, her steps steady, her expression gentle.

”Ouyang.” Anne began, her voice carrying a hint of sexy huskiness, ”I finally get to see you, you really are a busy person. Wanted to invite you for a drink yesterday, but you didn’t have time.”

”Apologies.” Ouyang Xianyue rose to greet, her face adorned with a graceful smile, ”During the summit, trivial matters keep coming up, apologies indeed, Anne.”

”Good afternoon, Miss Ouyang.” Qin Yingxue nodded politely.

”Good afternoon, Yingxue. Please sit.”

After exchanging pleasantries, the three sat down on the sofa in the guest area.

Secretary Chen personally served them top-notch Zhengshan Xiaozhong black tea, bowed and retreated, softly closing the door.

Anne picked up the teacup, blew on the steam, but didn’t drink.

Her sharp gaze fixed on the noblewoman opposite, as if to see through her clothes.

”What’s wrong?” Ouyang Xianyue chuckled softly, ”Is there something on my face?”

”No.” Anne set the teacup down, leaned forward, ”I just heard suddenly, because of Su Yu, you found your ’Second Spring’? I always thought someone like you, an Oriental noblewoman, was already uninterested in romantic feelings.”

Upon hearing her blunt and crude words, Ouyang Xianyue’s leg wrapped in stockings subtly tightened, but outwardly remained unfazed.

She responded with a faint smile: ”Sometimes, people just cannot help themselves.”

”Hehe.” Anne let out a light laugh, unapologetically ridiculing, targeting the hypocrisy deep within.

After all, despite so many interactions, Ouyang Xianyue always maintained an aloof, abstinent Holy Daughter demeanor, leading one to believe she would never succumb to earthly desires.

In the end, as soon as Tang Song mentioned going to [Xuanji Light Realm], she immediately exposed her fox tail, starting to snatch people away.

For someone as outspoken and openly desirous as Anne Kate.

She truly couldn’t stand such Eastern-style subtlety and hypocrisy.

However, she is aware of the bigger picture and wouldn’t really expose the situation.

Ouyang Xianyue elegantly sipped her tea, ignoring Anne’s provocation, shifting her gaze to the one truly delivering the message.

”Yingxue, Chairman Jin had you come specifically, must be an important matter right? Speak directly, I have an international online meeting later.”

Anne leaned back, her long legs wrapped in suit pants casually crossed.

Assuming a posture of ”enjoying the show”, she looked at Qin Yingxue beside her.

Seeing this, Qin Yingxue opened her briefcase, took out a finely bound document, and gently placed it on the coffee table.

Her voice remained as steady as ever: ”Miss Ouyang, I’m here today representing Chairman Jin to synchronize a disposal intention regarding [Qingning Technology] equity with you.”
