The morning sunlight streamed into the bedroom through the gaps in the curtains. Lu Ci was still asleep when he was woken up by a series of urgent cell phone rings.

He fumbled for his phone, pressed the answer button, and Xiao Wei's energetic voice immediately came through the receiver:

"Good morning, Mr. Lu!"

Lu Ci rubbed his slightly sore eyes, his voice still a little hoarse from just waking up: "Good morning. You're... almost there?"

"Yes, the navigation shows less than two kilometers left!"

"Okay, I'll get up and wash up right away."

After hanging up the phone, Lu Ci sat up in bed.

Yesterday, Xiaowei finalized today's itinerary with him on WeChat: in the morning, they would go to the hotel to meet with the music festival organizers, officially sign the performance contract, and decide on the songs to be sung.

After all, this is a large-scale commercial ticketed music festival, and all the performances involve public performance copyright issues.

Since Lu Ci currently has no original works and can only sing covers, and given that he is only a minor internet celebrity, the organizers obviously cannot afford to spend money to buy copyrights just for him.

Therefore, when choosing songs, he can basically only select from the song library that the organizer has already bought out or has authorized.

After washing up, Lu Ci changed into a clean and neat casual outfit.

As soon as he stepped downstairs and opened the unit door, his eyes were drawn to a sports car parked downstairs.

It was a striking pink Porsche 718, its streamlined body gleaming in the morning sunlight.

Lu Ci looked around but didn't see Xiao Wei. He was about to take out his phone to send a message to ask her where she had parked the car.

Just then, the passenger window of the pink Porsche slowly rolled down.

Xiao Wei, in the driver's seat, excitedly waved to Lu Ci: "Boss Lu! What are you standing there for? Get in the car!"

Upon hearing the sound, Lu Ci's gaze fell upon her in astonishment. He then scanned the eye-catching sports car up and down before walking over with a look of bewilderment, opening the car door, and getting into the passenger seat.

Today, Xiaowei wore a high-quality light blue long shirt, the hem of which was carefully tucked into a beige pencil skirt, revealing a pair of fair and shapely legs.

With her baby face full of collagen, she exudes youthful vitality.

"Is this your car?" Lu Ci fastened his seatbelt, looked at the luxurious burgundy leather interior, and raised an eyebrow.

Xiao Wei chuckled, stepped on the gas, and drove out of the residential area with a deep roar from the engine.

"Yes, it's been sitting in the garage for ages without being driven." Xiao Wei said, steering the car with one hand. "Today is the big day for you, Boss Lu, as you officially embark on your star career and sign your first commercial performance contract!"

As your assistant, I have to find a way to give you some support, right? So I brought this car out.

Lu Ci turned his head, carefully examining Xiao Wei's youthful and radiant profile, and chuckled softly, "I really didn't see that coming. With your talent, how come you ended up working as a manager at a bar?"

"Hey, don't even mention it." Xiaowei pouted and complained while waiting for the red light: "As soon as I graduated from university, my family insisted on sending me abroad to study some kind of financial management, saying that I would come back to help my brother manage the family business."

But I didn't want to go at all. I had a huge fight with my dad about it, and in a fit of anger, I ran away from home.

"Later I thought, since I made a tough promise not to spend my family's money, I have to support myself."

When I was job hunting, I realized I didn't know anything. I just thought short videos and live streaming looked fun, so I took a class to learn operations. By chance, I ended up working in this line of work at Boss Chen's bar.

After listening, Lu Ci looked away and shook his head with amusement.

"Well, here comes another rich heiress rebelliously running away."

Lu Ci leaned back in his chair and joked, "You swore before that you'd be my assistant. With your status, I wouldn't dare hire you even if you wanted to.

Tell me, how much salary should I pay you in the future to be worthy of a lady who drives a Porsche?

"No, boss!" Xiao Wei exclaimed anxiously, quickly professing her loyalty: "Do I do this job for the salary? I think this is really interesting!"

Just imagine, if one day I personally helped you become a superstar admired by millions, what a sense of accomplishment that would be!

Lu Ci smiled and was about to speak when his phone suddenly vibrated in his pocket.

He took out his phone and saw that it was a WeChat message from Lin Wan.

Lin Wan: "Someone hasn't messaged me for a full eleven hours and fifty minutes. (Sullen face)"

Lu Ci looked at the accusations on the screen, the time accurate to the minute, and a slight smile appeared on his lips as he rapidly tapped the screen with his fingers.

Lu Ci: "I ran into some urgent business last night and was busy until very late."

Lin Wan: "Hmph. You call me 'Sweetie' when you need me, but now that someone new has taken over, you call me 'Old Mrs. Cow,' is that it?"

Seeing that Lin Wan even brought up classic lines from "A Chinese Odyssey," Lu Ci's smile deepened.

Lu Ci: "So, may I ask what Mrs. Niu is doing now?"

Lin Wan: "Mrs. Niu is sitting at her desk right now, drawing a circle and cursing you!"

Lu Ci: "It's been several days since I last saw you. I wonder if Mrs. Niu has become even more beautiful these past few days?"

Lin Wan: "What? You want me to send you a selfie? *smug*"

Lu Ci: "Look at your legs."

Lin Wan: "You pervert! I'm at work, stop!"

As the conversation continued, the car smoothly entered the underground parking lot of a five-star hotel.

Lu Ci: "I've arrived. I need to meet with a client to discuss some matters. We'll talk in a bit."

After sending the message, Lu Ci locked his phone, opened the car door, and got out of the sports car.

Just as he and Gu Xiaowei closed the car door and were about to walk towards the elevator, Lu Ci's phone, which he was holding, suddenly rang again.

He stopped and casually swiped the screen.

It was a picture sent by Lin Wan.

Lu Ci was slightly taken aback when he clicked on the large image.

The photo was clearly taken from a first-person, overhead angle while the person was sitting in an office chair.

In the picture, the light under the desk is a little dim, but the pair of long, beautiful legs crossed and stretched out under the desk are very visually striking.

Her legs were tightly wrapped in sheer black stockings of excellent quality, revealing glimpses of her delicate, fair skin.

Her toes, clad in black stockings, lightly touched the thick carpet of the bank's VIP room, paired with a pair of black stiletto heels.

The temptation was extreme.

Xiao Wei locked her car and walked over. Seeing Lu Ci standing there staring blankly at his phone screen, she curiously leaned over and asked, "What's wrong, Boss Lu? What are you looking at so intently?"

"Click".

Before Xiao Wei could even glance at him, Lu Ci swiftly pressed the lock screen button, and the screen instantly went black.

He put his phone in his pocket, turned to look at Xiaowei, and said, "It's nothing, let's go."
