Chapter 1623: Chapter 1624: Riding a Tiger, Hard to Dismount
"This... This is just too far-fetched, right?" The man on the left looked at you with a peculiar expression.
You shrugged, smiling, "It’s just an ordinary little story, casually said. Anyway, the three of you are just testing whether I really know five foreign languages."
The middle-aged man nodded and picked up the brief introduction to read, "Li Jiu, male, 25 years old. Master’s in Finance, Master’s in Architecture, Master’s in Linguistics. Young man, not bad."
"Actually, to be honest, once you really understand foreigners’ stuff, you’ll find they’re actually quite simple."
You smiled at the three in front of you, speaking naturally, as if the ones sitting in front of you were not recruiters from a large corporation, but three friends met in a park, chatting comfortably.
"I just praised you, and now you’re getting cocky?"
"That’s really a misunderstanding." You smiled and explained, "An Nan students have heavy coursework, so when I got to university, I lost interest in studying. Many academic theories in my field are mostly from abroad, and the first hurdle is the language barrier. Once that’s overcome, working on Qingshui Street for half a year, I’m quite familiar with the capital operation process and have dabbled quite a bit in financial investment."
The middle-aged man nodded, smiling, "That’s true. Your resume mentioned an internet investment war, which still sounds quite fresh nowadays."
You shrugged, glanced at your watch, then said to the three of them, "May I ask, have I been accepted?"
The three exchanged glances, the middle-aged man stood up smiling, and said to you, "Congratulations, you’ve been hired by Haitian Investment Group."
"Thank you."
You also stood up and shook hands with each of them.
Not long after, another stylishly dressed woman walked in, smiled at you, and said, "Mr. Lin, please come with me."
"Another interview?" You asked slightly puzzled.
The white-collar woman smiled slightly, "You’re quite lucky, our CEO Cen is visiting today, and soon you’ll undergo an interview with our CEO. If successful, you might directly enter the high levels."
"Pies don’t fall from the sky, nothing that good happens." You chuckled, crossed your hands behind your head as if in defense, and followed the white-collar woman casually.
At this moment, in the VIP room of the Haitian Investment Group recruitment hall, two graceful women were sitting on the special VIP sofa. A big screen in front of them was playing the scene of you walking down the hallway with the white-collar woman.
The one sitting on the left was your elder sister Li Qiyi.
Li Qiyi looked entirely different from usual at this moment. Merely sitting there, she was like an ice sculpture, exuding a chilling aura that discouraged anyone from approaching.
On Li Qiyi’s right, a woman in a Chanel suit slightly leaned against the sofa. Her hair was loosely tied in a bun, making her look both composed and lively. Her bright eyes were deep and engaging, her nose was prominent, and her red lips were alluring. The suit, worth tens of thousands, tightly wrapped her enticing body, as if it would burst open with a slight shift, revealing the tempting parts inside.
The two kept watching the scene on the screen, and then the woman on Li Qiyi’s right spoke in a slightly magnetic voice, "Little Yun, what do you think of this kid?"
Li Qiyi replied expressionlessly, "From the performance just now, he’s promising, at least he’s not pretentious."
The woman nodded, crossed her arms, making her already prominent chest even firmer, the depths in the middle more profound, and the patch of white on her chest more captivating.
Soon, there was a knock on the door from outside.
With a cold tone, Li Qiyi said, "Come in."
The white-collar woman led you into the VIP room, bowed slightly to the two women in front, and then left.
When you recognized Li Qiyi’s face, your eyebrows raised slightly, but you quickly shifted your gaze, focusing more on the woman next to Li Qiyi, who looked around thirty years old.
This woman was top-notch in every aspect. Not only did she have a naturally alluring face, but her figure was enough to make even someone like you take a few more glances.
Though she was long used to being looked at this way, it was the first time she saw such an unabashed gaze.
The woman looked at you and suddenly asked, "Do you like what you see?"
"Nice, definitely nice."
"What’s nice about it?"
"As white as snow, as graceful as jade." At this point, you quoted a bit of literature.
The woman gave a cold laugh and said, "I couldn’t tell, but you even have the potential to be a rogue."
"Rogue?" You pointed at yourself, "Are you talking about me?"
"Of course." The woman nodded.
"I say, elder sister, although you’re an interviewer, you can’t just make baseless accusations."
"What, you have an issue with how I just addressed you?"
If it were someone else, the woman would probably have kicked them out, but today, for some reason, she just wanted to keep talking to you. This made Li Qiyi beside her look at her with extremely surprised eyes.
"Of course I have an issue. If you really want to talk about rogues, it should be you, elder sister, right?"
"What did you say?" As soon as these words came out, the woman’s apricot eyes widened.
You remained unfazed, saying in a very natural tone, "Isn’t it true? You’re the one leaving your neckline so low, spraying on perfume, clearly seducing the masses!"
Saying this, you even leaned in, sniffed a bit, then said, "Chanel No. 5, Encounter fragrance, ah, sister, you have quite the taste. A girlish heart like glass, clearly seducing men. Are you honestly saying you’re not dressing this sparsely for men’s eyes; and spraying on such perfume isn’t to linger in men’s memories, but as a benefit for this icy beauty beside you?"
Upon hearing this, the woman couldn’t help but laugh.
Her laughter made both Li Qiyi beside her and you in front feel inexplicably puzzled.
In fact, the reason you spoke so freely with the head of Haitian Investment Group in front of you is mainly because you knew the woman in front of you.
When you saw her face, you realized, damn, you got played by the Heavenly Fox again!
It turns out that Heavenly Fox had long known that Cen Nong was the powerful woman you had rescued once, and had invested heavily in crafting a new Human Skin Mask, and the owner of this mask was the man who took a bullet for Cen Nong back in the day.
You don’t know where Heavenly Fox got this information, and you’re too lazy to care, given the vastness of Heavenly Fox’s intelligence network.
It’s just that you now have a feeling of riding a tiger and unable to get off.
