Lust System: Harem Of Beautiful Women

Chapter 285: Big Wigs Gathering

”You stay, the others go to your assigned posts and stand guard.”

The people scattered immediately, heading to their positions according to the prior arrangements. The middle-aged man came over, chuckled, and patted Luis on the shoulder, saying, ”Young man, your future is boundless. President Ben is very satisfied with you. Your performance this time was quite commendable.”

This was such fucking official talk. ’Boundless future’? Yet he didn’t send anyone to offer condolences; it was, after all, an on-the-job injury.

The middle-aged man continued, ”The leaders dislike large, ostentatious receptions, and have explicitly forbidden anyone from going outside to greet them. Therefore, their cars will stop directly in front of our main entrance.”

”According to protocol, one person is needed specifically to operate the elevator buttons. You will be responsible for the one the senior leader takes. From the moment the leader enters the main gate, you are tasked with guiding the way. Go change your clothes now.”

”Yes.”

Luis was utterly confused, finding himself inexplicably turned into an elevator attendant once again.

At seven o’clock, Tiger Real Estate was bustling with activity. Even though it wasn’t yet official working hours, one luxury car after another pulled in.

All the other minority shareholders of Tiger Real Estate, the CEOs of various subsidiary companies, and the group’s senior executives were present, a rare and complete gathering.

Everyone’s expression was serious. They all understood clearly that this was the day that would decide the future of Tiger Real Estate, and their own futures along with it. No one spoke to each other, each simply returning to their own offices to await the outcome.

Soon, only two groups remained in the open space before the main entrance. They did not exchange a single word, the air thick with the smell of gunpowder.

After these people got out of their vehicles, they positioned themselves distinctly, clearly belonging to the two major families.

Vincent appeared aged and somewhat ill. His Western suit and leather shoes could not conceal his lack of vitality. Leaning heavily on a cane and almost needing support from others to stand, he resembled a candle guttering in the wind.

The other side had fewer people, seeming weaker, even showing a predominance of women over men, with only a few men present whose faces were filled with anger.

At their head was a young married woman, dressed demurely and elegantly, wearing light makeup that made her look exceedingly enchanting.

She wore a white suit dress, attired almost like a bereaved widow attending a funeral, drawing furious stares from the Taiga family members. Yet, they had to admit this woman was a peerless stunner, captivating everyone’s gaze.

Bella, the rightfully wedded young wife of Dominic, and the current head of the Leon family.

A woman of breathtaking beauty and elegance, she now seemed as cold as ice, utterly unapproachable. Even from a distance, one could feel a chill in their bones, not daring to entertain any thoughts of coveting or defiling her.

What made Luis stare in astonishment was the young woman standing behind her, who looked almost exactly like her, yet was even younger, more beautiful, and dressed impeccably.

Wasn’t that Rococo...? Luis was completely baffled.

She was also a member of the Leon family? And judging by her position, she was the cherished young mistress of the family? Then why was she working at the community hospital?

The air was saturated with tension. With so many people in a standoff, no one spoke, their expressionless faces creating an especially eerie scene.

Just then, a Toyota Coaster drove in. The two groups of people, as if by prior agreement, broke into smiles, seemingly awaiting an inspection.

The vehicle came to a gradual stop. Luis, having previously worked as an auto mechanic, immediately recognized the driver’s exceptional skill. A cursory glance was enough to appreciate what true steadiness and smoothness meant.

Once the door opened, several middle-aged men disembarked in succession, accompanied by younger individuals who appeared to be secretaries.

From a distance, one could see Vincent and Bella separately shaking hands with the man who seemed to be the leader among them, before clustering around him and heading towards the elevators.

This had been arranged beforehand. Those two would accompany the senior leader in taking the central elevator, while the others would use the remaining elevators.

After they entered the elevator, Luis finally got a proper look at the middle-aged man before him.

He appeared to be in his early fifties, his hair jet-black and glossy, combed in a classic back-swept style. He wore a cadre’s uniform impeccably straight, was tall in stature, and held himself very erect.

Although his face bore a kindly and amiable smile, he still exuded a palpable sense of authority, the kind of aura possessed by those long accustomed to high positions. It was clear he and common folk like Luis moved in entirely different circles.

With his hawk-like eyebrows and sharp, sword-like eyes, he commanded respect without any show of anger. He was clearly a leader who, at first glance, possessed both capability and decisiveness.

”President Ye, it’s been many years. You remain as distinguished as ever, while I have become a feeble old man.”

Vincent offered flattering words.

Bella said with a smile, ”President Ye is already working in the provincial capital, yet he still shows such concern for the people of Bathek City. It is truly our good fortune.”

Take either one of this couple out separately.

Each was a major figure capable of wielding great influence in Bathek City. But now, in the presence of this President Ye, they seemed so deferential.

Of course, their demeanor wasn’t that of fawning sycophants; at their level, showing attentiveness was itself an art form.

President Ye smiled mildly and said, ”After all, I was the one who facilitated the establishment of Tiger Real Estate back in the day. It’s a pity the push for listing wasn’t successful, otherwise Bathek City would have gained another publicly listed company.”

His words seemed to carry a hint of reproof and a warning. Not only did Vincent’s expression change, but even Bella, who was smiling ingratiatingly, looked embarrassed.

She couldn’t find any schadenfreude in this, knowing that the perspective from above was simple: when two tigers fight, one must eventually emerge victorious. If the stalemate has dragged on to this point, then both sides are essentially incompetent.

It was at this moment that Bella noticed Luis. Her expression shifted slightly, a flash of anger in her eyes, but it was gone in an instant, quickly masked.

From her reaction, Luis understood his purpose here today: he was a pawn placed by Dominic to irritate her, to disrupt her composure.

He had to admit, it was rather childish. Once he figured it out, Luis felt both amused and exasperated...

Luis was curious about this President Ye. He was clearly a figure of high rank and authority, though Luis didn’t know the exact level. But upon closer observation just now, he had spotted a Vice Mayor, whom he’d seen on television, following within President Ye’s entourage.

Based on the positioning, that Vice Mayor didn’t even rank within the top five of the group, confirming that this President Ye was truly a man at the very top.

Luis had been harboring a crooked idea since yesterday. There was a rather niche in the Lust System called the ’Daddy Hack’.

Wasn’t the man before him the perfect candidate? Seizing the moment as the couple, whose relationship had soured, were deferentially ushering President Ye into the elevator first, Luis moved aside, one hand pressing the door open button.

His other hand acted as if by accident, making contact with President Ye’s arm. This skin-to-skin contact was the necessary condition to activate the hack.

”Ding... System reward item: Father Hack. Activate?”

”Yes.”

Luis silently affirmed in his mind.

”Ding... Hack activated immediately. Beginning memory extraction of the target.”

Luis thought this was quite meticulous, so he lowered his head and stood to the side. When the elevator reached the administrative meeting floor, the others went up first.

”Alright, you rest here for a while before going. We cannot change personnel to avoid complications.”

The captain settled Luis into a nearby lounge, then the others hurriedly went upstairs.

There was a small bed in the lounge. Luis lay down on it, closed his eyes, and opened the System interface.

The System interface displayed the status of the Father Cheat. Sebastian Ye, male, 52 years old...
