Gorgeous Female Tenants

Before long, Xu Xiangbei grabbed Xu Wanqing and got into his Porsche. He drove like lightning, weaving swiftly through the streets.

While driving, he flirted with Xu Wanqing, chattering on and using his eloquence to make this aloof female manager smile repeatedly.

Then he occasionally teased her, always turning the conversation just before she was about to snap, leaving her speechless and bottling up her feelings.

About half an hour later, the car arrived at Longevity Street’s Renyuan Community, a haven for the affluent. Nestled amidst nature with its greenery, this community boasts many luxurious buildings alongside numerous villas, truly a place where land is worth a fortune. Ordinary folks can’t easily enter here; if Xu Xiangbei weren’t driving a luxury car, his appearance alone might have gotten him stopped at the entrance by security.

He drove straight towards a villa, sprawling over approximately 2,000 square meters, very spacious and impressively tall. At first glance, it resembles Gothic architecture from the Middle Ages; the walls outside the gate are constructed from white marble, reflecting its opulence.

Just as they arrived at the entrance, Qian Duoduo was there to greet them.

"Boss, you’re finally here; I’ve been waiting for a long time!" Qian Duoduo laughed and tried to embrace Xu Xiangbei, but he cleverly dodged.

"Who’s this?" Qian Duoduo looked Xu Wanqing up and down, his eyes lighting up. Although he’s seen countless beautiful women, the one before him could definitely be regarded as exquisite.

"Let me introduce you. This is Miss Xu, Xu Wanqing, the general manager of Jinshang KTV. And this is Radiant Light, the sole heir of business titan Qian Wantong, but naturally, just call him by his nickname, Qian Duoduo!" Xu Xiangbei gestured to introduce the two.

"I didn’t expect Miss Xu to be not only stunning but also exceptionally smart—a young woman full of potential! Jinshang KTV is the largest and most luxurious KTV in Jiangcheng; I’ve heard the backing is enormous!" Qian Duoduo greeted with a smile, full of compliments.

"Not as formidable as Qian Wantong, who’s a seasoned master of the marketplace. We’re just playing around, not up to that level!" Xu Wanqing was surprised upon hearing this. The name Qian Wantong was widely recognized among Jiangcheng’s business circle.

"Enough with the mutual compliments; let’s go inside and eat. I’m starving!" Xu Xiangbei ignored etiquette and acted as if he were at home.

Xu Wanqing rolled her eyes at him, about to scold his rudeness, when Qian Duoduo interrupted.

"Brother Xu is right, please come in! The food is ready; we’re just waiting for you to start."

The group entered the living room, where the floor was uniformly marble, carved with various patterns, seemingly embedded but exceptionally smooth, and multicolored—a clear indication of high expense.

Looking up, there were three stories with a circular staircase on the side. A massive crystal chandelier hung in the center of the living room, emitting a gentle glow. A round dining table stood in the middle, the kind often used in upscale restaurants, with several chairs arranged around it.

Looking ahead, Elder Qian was seated there, his face a bit pale, quite thin and bony, his spirit somewhat listless, revealing the fallen aura of a once-dominant hero, yet emanating an inexplicable majesty found only in those long in power.

To his left sat a young man with fair complexion and bright eyes in a square, angular face, like it was carved in stone—handsomely striking, wearing a deep blue suit with a black tie, embodying the image of a successful youth.

At this time, he was conversing happily with Elder Qian.

"His name is Huang Kunsheng, the Deputy General Manager of Shengshi Business Group. His father is Huang Yongming, who used to build an empire with my father and is the second-largest shareholder in our company. He’s the Vice President of Shengshi Business now. On hearing about my dad’s situation, he specifically brought gifts today to visit. He said Huang Yongming was busy with company affairs and couldn’t make it, so he came as his father’s representative to see my father," Qian Duoduo explained on the side.

Elder Qian, seeing Xu Xiangbei and the others enter, smiled and greeted them. As introductions were made, conversation flowed. Initially, Qian Wantong expressed his gratitude, showering Xu Xiangwei with lavish praise, almost likening him to the modern reincarnation of Hua Tuo, a living Buddha.

Soon, dishes were served, very rich, brought by two maids, essentially everything you could want, rivaling any restaurant’s offering, with some Jiangcheng specialties included.

Xu Xiangbei lost his restraint upon seeing the feast, not caring much, as he was ravenous due to being unconscious all day after a rescue, eating barely anything, thus devoured the food savagely, like a whirlwind. Those nearby stared in amazement, thinking he must be a reincarnated starving ghost.

"Some people these days, their manners are deteriorating!" Huang Kunsheng was displeased watching from the side. Seeing Xu Wanqing earlier, his eyes had flickered with a wolf-like hunger, albeit well-concealed. Desiring to earn favor, he acted the gentleman before her, excelling in conversation and conduct.

At dinner, he maintained a gentlemanly demeanor, disappointed as Xu Xiangbei devoured chunks of meat and gulps of soup without leaving anything for him. To malign Xu Xiangbei and elevate his worth, he feigned disdain and shame.

"Indeed, as the saying goes: ’Dining without speaking, sleeping without talking.’ Some people can’t even eat peacefully; really, it’s a sign of manners worsening. I’m compelled to kindly remind him not to talk while eating!" Xu Xiangbei retorted unabashedly, then resumed eating, rendering Huang Kunsheng speechless, his face turning purple.

"People don’t mind that nowadays; isn’t business often conducted at the dining table? Meals should foster communication. It’s more than just eating—the culture around dining is profound!" Elder Qian mused from the side, easing the tense atmosphere.

"Chairman Qian, truly farsighted, experienced, a powerhouse in the marketplace. These insights, we could never match!" Xu Wanqing commented admiringly, slightly flattering. Her words were perfectly timed and delivered, a veteran of the business world, making complimenting truly flattering.

"Not at all! I’m just speaking lightly; if us older folks don’t keep learning, we’ll fall behind. The future belongs to you young people!" Qian Wantong’s demeanor slightly improved, speaking calmly.

"Oh come now, Uncle Qian, you remain the benchmark and flag bearer of our industry! Us juniors should learn more from you; my father always said how you were incredibly astute, unrivaled in the marketplace!" Huang Kunsheng kept praising from the side.

"Ah, getting old! As the Yangtze River’s waves push forward, old waves die on the sands. I’ll leave things to you youngsters!" Qian Wantong responded satisfactively to his words.

Suddenly, he turned to Xu Xiangbei with a gleeful look: "By the way, Dr. Xu, do you have any interest in joining the business world?"

"What’s this about?" Xu Xiangbei was puzzled by Qian Wantong’s words. But upon further thinking, it didn’t seem strange; his superficial acquaintance with Qian Wantong meant he might not know Xu was the President of Thunderbird Group.

"I mean, if you are willing to enter business, I invite you to work at our company, Shengshi Business, have you heard of it?"

"Of course, who in Jiangcheng hasn’t heard of it? It’s one of the top groups." Xu Xiang had a good guess about the offer.

"You join our company, I’ll give you the position of General Manager, and I’ll annually allocate some shares to you. I can’t rely on my son; he’s a wastrel, though filial nonetheless. I plan not to hand the company to him. If you’re interested, when I pass on, the company could be yours. Just ensure my son receives enough annually to live comfortably!" Qian Wantong chuckled, seeming like he was joking, but with an underlying seriousness.

"Elder Qian, don’t joke with me; I’m hardly such talent! Besides, your company is yours, you’re the largest shareholder, how could I take over like that?" Xu Xiangbei was taken aback, as were the others, shocked by Qian Wantong’s offer.

"Radiant Light, I don’t expect you to inherit my legacy or manage my company. Should I hand it to Mr. Xu now, would you have any objections?" He turned to Qian Duoduo, his gaze carrying a hint of expectation.
