Rebirth: At the beginning, the cool school beauty was caught stealing in the supermarket

Chapter 824 Hello, Mr. Zhong
The rented house was a bit far from the Lu Group, and taxis in Zhucheng were ridiculously expensive, so Zhong Jincheng could only take the bus. He stood in the middle of the bus, holding onto the handrail above.

The suit didn't fit quite right; it was a little too big and felt loose on my body.

There happened to be a group of young people wearing baseball uniforms on the bus. Looking at these boys who exuded youthful energy, were tall and straight, but didn't look much younger than himself, Zhong Jincheng clenched his fists and suddenly felt like he was pretending to be an adult among them.

He is only 20 years old.

But he's already married, and his child is due soon; he's already planning how to support his family.

Moreover, he's rushing to sign a 500,000 yuan project, which sounds like something only an adult could do.

After the bus arrived, Zhong Jincheng carried his briefcase and walked to the company. He went to the front desk, gave his name, and was able to enter smoothly. It seemed that the phone call was real. At that moment, Zhong Jincheng's excitement became tangible.

Following his previous recollection, he arrived at the company's investment department, intending to find the person who had previously assisted him. However, after looking around, he couldn't find them. At that moment, a female office worker approached him and respectfully inquired, "Excuse me, are you Mr. Zhong, the legal representative of Big Ben Milk Tea Shop?"

Zhong Jincheng was taken aback for a moment, then quickly replied, "Yes, it's me."

"Hello, your project has been personally approved by the general manager. He said that if you arrive, he will ask you to come to his office to see him."

Zhong Jincheng exclaimed in surprise, "The...the general manager?! He's still paying attention to my bubble tea shop?"

People nearby turned to look at him.

Zhong Jincheng covered his mouth and laughed shyly, then bowed apologetically to the others and raised his hand, his humble demeanor resembling that of a true adult.

The female office worker smiled and said, "Yes, his office is on the 12th floor. You can go there now."

"12th floor... Okay, okay."

Zhong Jincheng turned around, carrying a briefcase containing only a few pens, and left the investment department, walking down the company's internal corridor.

Last time, he came in a hurry and didn't have time to observe the company's interior. Zhong Jincheng then discovered that the interior decoration of Lu's Group was very beautiful. The floor was as smooth as a mirror, the walls were decorated with high-end materials and had relief carvings. There were green plants in the corners, and every glass in sight was spotless, like a pure gemstone.

It seemed like every place was worth stopping to take a few photos.

The passing employees all looked like elites, walking very fast and rarely stopping.

Zhong Jincheng was somewhat dazzled by what he saw. He wondered how long he would have to struggle before he could feel a sense of belonging in such a place.

Upon arriving at the elevator, Zhong Jincheng stepped inside and pressed the button for the 12th floor. While the elevator was ascending, he tidied his clothes in front of the mirror. As he stepped out of the elevator, he silently took a deep breath.

Zhong Jincheng saw a beautiful white-collar worker sitting in front of him from afar. She looked like a secretary. Although she was looking down, her appearance was vaguely familiar.

"Excuse me, where is the general manager's office?"

Li Qingxuan looked up and smiled when she saw Zhong Jincheng: "He's right behind me, but the general manager has an emergency meeting today. He told me that if you arrive, he'll take you to the conference room on the tenth floor to find him."

"Ah, oh, okay, thank you."

Zhong Jincheng quickly expressed his gratitude.

Wasn't this person at the Lujiazui Restaurant? How come he didn't recognize me? Is my face that ordinary? Li Qingxuan wondered to herself, but on the surface, she smiled and led the way.

The two entered the elevator. After Li Qingxuan pressed the button for the 10th floor, she placed her hands on her lower abdomen. Zhong Jincheng straightened his suit again, then turned his head and instinctively glanced at her chest.

This glance doesn't matter.

"I rely on!"

Inside the elevator, Zhong Jincheng suddenly exclaimed, startling Li Qingxuan.

"Wh...what happened?" "You, you, you, aren't you the actor that Lu Yuanqiu hired that day?" Zhong Jincheng remembered, he remembered everything.

"Are all these students' lines exactly the same...?" Li Qingxuan thought blankly, then smiled and said, "Yes."

She quickly straightened her expression and said, "But I'm not an actress."

"what?"

"Ding--"

The elevator doors opened, and Li Qingxuan walked in front, making an inviting gesture.

"plz follow me."

Zhong Jincheng followed behind, completely bewildered. Not an actress? Then she was a real secretary?

Holy crap, Cao Shuang's older brother is the general manager of the Lu Group?!

No way.

He paused, and when he saw Li Qingxuan stop and turn to look at him, Zhong Jincheng quickly picked up his briefcase and followed.

Arriving at the door of a room, Zhong Jincheng vaguely heard voices inside. Li Qingxuan knocked on the door, and the conference room door opened from the inside. Zhong Jincheng slowly walked forward, and a long, gray square table came into view. The table was surrounded by people, each with a name tag and an exquisite teacup in front of them. Behind the crowd were lush green plants.

At the very front of the long table, in the corner next to the head seat, a beautiful girl with long, straight black hair was leaning on the table, tilting her head. She had a dazzling silver moon hair clip on her head, and she seemed to find the meeting boring.

The girl looked up and saw Zhong Jincheng standing at the door. She chuckled, straightened up, and reached out to touch the person sitting in the main seat next to her, whose back was turned to the door.

Lu Yuanqiu turned his head and, realizing that someone had arrived, spun his chair halfway around to face Zhong Jincheng, who was standing at the entrance of the conference room, wearing a loose-fitting suit.

A smile appeared on Lu Yuanqiu's face. He leaned forward, resting his arms on the table, as if he had been waiting for a long time.

"Hello, Mr. Zhong."

Lu Yuanqiu spoke.

"Thud." Zhong Jincheng's briefcase fell to the ground.

Lu Yuanqiu glanced at the briefcase on the ground, but didn't rush to explain to Zhong Jincheng. He leaned back in his chair and said to the other senior executives sitting at the long table, "The idea of ​​printing cartoons on the packaging of Xia Yiwan Noodles came from one of our company's investment projects, Big Ben Milk Tea."

"Let's give a warm round of applause to welcome Mr. Zhong Jincheng, the brand founder of Big Ben Milk Tea, to his seat."

Lu Yuanqiu looked at Zhong Jincheng, clapped his hands, and smiled slightly.

Bai Qingxia smiled and clapped her hands. This moment seemed much more interesting to her than the boring meeting content.

Zhong Jincheng glanced at her, then at Lu Yuanqiu, still stiff. Seeing this, Li Qingxuan stepped forward to help him pick up his briefcase, and then invited Zhong Jincheng to sit in the seat in front.

Even after sitting down, Zhong Jincheng's mind was still blank.

Lu Yuanqiu raised an eyebrow: "Our Mr. Zhong doesn't seem to be fully awake yet. Come on, let's give him a louder round of applause."

Zhong Jincheng never expected that a group of suited elites, whom he only ever saw on TV, would be fooling around with Lu Yuanqiu, smiling at him and clapping their hands to encourage him.

At this moment, the scenery before my eyes seemed to slow down, like a dream, but Lu Yuanqiu and Bai Qingxia's familiar faces were so real.

Zhong Jincheng held his empty briefcase in his arms, sighed with regret for a moment, and then, with his body bent over, he couldn't help but laugh.
