Wen Shu hesitated for a long time, but finally followed.
The car drove out of the residential area.
Wen Shu sat in the passenger seat and asked about the destination several times along the way, but Ding Heng brushed her off each time.
As the vehicle passed an office building on the side of the road, Wen Shu noticed that the Hengbai Capital logo had been hung on the outside of the building.
"Hengbai has opened a branch in the capital?"
"Still in preparation."
Ding Heng explained, "The formalities have been completed, and the office area will be put into use next month."
Hengbai Capital has been investing in more and more projects in northern China in recent years.
Lin Man used to have to travel frequently between the capital and Hong Kong, which was both time-consuming and inconvenient for team management.
The establishment of a branch office was already in the plan, but it had not been officially announced until now.
Why didn't Sister Man tell me?
"Why is she telling you all this when you haven't even started the job yet?"
Ding Heng said matter-of-factly, "You'll report directly to the capital next month. For the first few months, you'll work with the project team. Lin Man will come to check on you occasionally, and the branch office manager will take care of you the rest of the time."
Wen Shu suddenly realized: "So I don't need to go to work in Hong Kong?"
"You can go if you want."
Ding Heng said calmly, "However, there's no position reserved for you in Hong Kong yet. You'll have to work as Lin Man's assistant for now, learning as you go."
Wen Shu's expression immediately became somewhat unnatural.
"Then forget it."
I have no desire to learn any skills from a vixen that can be used both in and out of bed.
Wen Shu turned and lay on her side, teasingly saying, "Brother-in-law, the capital branch wasn't opened specifically for me, was it?"
Ding Heng chuckled and retorted, "Do you think you have that much influence?"
"I was just asking."
Wen Shu's mood was noticeably lighter.
She had already prepared herself to work in Hong Kong long-term.
Life in Hong Kong is certainly good, but having already spent four years studying at university in the capital, staying here at least means I don't have to deliberately develop connections or make friends anymore.
I have a job, friends, and my own life. I also visit my sister occasionally.
And when my brother-in-law occasionally comes to the capital...
Wen Shu stopped her thoughts in time and did not continue thinking about it.
The car drove along the main road for another half hour before finally entering a low-density residential area near the lake.
There are no shopping malls or crowds around, but the greenery and privacy are excellent.
After passing through the gate, the car drove along the internal road deeper into the area and finally stopped in front of a detached villa.
Wen Shu unbuckled her seatbelt and peered through the car window.
"here it is?"
"Get down."
Ding Heng still did not give a direct answer.
Wen Shu obediently got off the bus.
The villa's exterior doesn't look extravagant, and the yard is similarly sparsely decorated, consisting only of a lawn and a few saplings that have already taken root.
The door uses both fingerprint and password unlocking.
Ding Heng opened the door and gestured for Wen Shu to go in first.
The room is predominantly light-colored, with a warm and simple decor, and not too many fancy or impractical decorations.
The living room is very large.
The floor-to-ceiling windows face the backyard and the lake not far away, next to which is a single sofa big enough for one to sink into.
Wen Shu stood in the entryway, hesitant to change her shoes.
"The accommodations the company provides for its senior executives?"
"You're just a project assistant, and you're already eyeing executive benefits before you've even started?"
"Then why did you bring me here?"
"Let's take a look first."
Ding Heng took a brand new pair of women's slippers from the shoe cabinet and tossed them to her feet.
Wen Shu looked down and saw that her size was just right.
She didn't point it out or ask, and after changing her shoes, she began to tour the first floor.
The kitchen and dining room were all set up. The refrigerator was not yet in use, but the wine cabinet was already filled with a lot of wine, some of which were the same brands as those in her rented apartment, which suited her taste.
Wen Shu stopped in front of the wine cabinet and turned to look at Ding Heng.
Ding Heng was replying to someone's message, seemingly not paying any attention to her.
Further inside, the study was also set up. There weren't many books, most of which were related to photography. To the side, there was a camera cabinet that wasn't yet fully occupied.
"Brother-in-law."
Wen Shu finally couldn't help but say, "Don't tell me these are all included with the high-end renovation."
Ding Heng's lips curled up: "The furniture was added later."
Wen Shu pouted.
No matter how professional a designer is, they won't know which wine she likes, let alone what brand of photography equipment she usually uses.
Ding Heng was clearly still pretending to be confused.
There are three rooms on the second floor.
One of the master bedrooms is quite large, with a separate walk-in closet and bathroom. The other two bedrooms are much simpler, with no obvious signs of habitation at present.
"How about it?"
Ding Heng came up behind Wen Shu.
"pretty good."
Wen Shu reached out and pressed the doorknob, gently closing the door.
In a daze, she remembered her childhood.
At that time, her family was not well-off, and she and her sister Wenji lived in cramped conditions. Her biggest dream was to have a room that truly belonged to her.
Is Ding Heng helping her fulfill her dream?
"Brother-in-law."
"what?"
"nothing."
Wen Shu smiled faintly and continued walking upstairs.
The top floor is a fully converted photography studio, with a terrace visible through the floor-to-ceiling windows.
With plenty of sunshine and good weather, the terrace can even be used as a natural photo studio.
Wen Shu gradually slowed her pace.
She went to the workbench and immediately saw the huge photograph on the wall.
The snow-capped mountains were bathed in the golden light of the morning sun.
The mountain ridge is clearly outlined, while the clouds retain a cool gray-blue hue, with warm and cool colors naturally blending together in the same scene.
It's the photo she took of the golden sunrise on the snow-capped mountains.
Why did you put it so big?
Wen Shu looked up and observed for a long time.
"Because I think this photo of yours is the best."
Ding Heng commented, "It looks a bit odd to hang it in the living room; it would be perfect for the photography studio."
Several emotions welled up in Wen Shu's heart.
Compared to the villa, furniture, and expensive equipment, the photos in front of her were more to her liking.
This means that Ding Heng is seriously appreciating his own work.
There was another black photo album under the workbench, which Wen Shu casually opened.
The first one is a photo of her cosplaying as Kai'Sa taken during the National Day holiday.
There are also a few graduation photos, and a scene from a Hong Kong gathering where he was acting as a photography assistant but was pulled into the shot by Lin Man.
Continuing to flip through the pages, you'll find private photos of the two sisters dressed in maid outfits.
Wen Shu's face began to flush, and she quickly closed the photo album.
"You actually made this into a photo album?"
"Is there a problem?"
"What if my sister sees it?"
"She was inside herself."
That's not what I meant.
Wen Shu turned around and glared at him.
Ding Heng smiled and didn't tease her any further.
After a moment of silence, Wen Shu suddenly spoke again.
