While Shan Tiansheng and others were still caught in the shock, Ge Xuan had already gone after Yun Jian to tell her that he was going back to the racetrack to watch Shan Tiansheng race and ask if she wanted to go back together too.
Having just stirred up quite the commotion, now was certainly not an appropriate time for her to return there. Yun Jian quirked her rosy lips into a smile. “I think I’ll pass. Call me when you finish watching the race later.”
Yun Jian patted her pants pocket gently as she spoke and grinned. Her cellphone was in there.
“Sure.” Ge Xuan nodded.
Shan Tiansheng had yet to race. As his best friend, it was only acceptable that Ge Xuan stayed there as support. Otherwise, he would be a lousy bro.
Yun Jian left with Alluring Demon after she talked to Ge Xuan.
She had come to Country M’s Maryland to check out how Dime And Prime Company was doing recently, and since Ge Xuan was occupied for the night, she went to the company with Alluring Demon.
Dime And Prime Company was located in the largest busy area of Maryland. With the large area it had taken up, it was the tallest building in Maryland.
Currently, it was already night time—nearly midnight. In spite of it, the busy area of Maryland was the most popular section in the neighborhood and was filled with people even at this hour.
There were also people who were still working overtime in Dime And Prime. When Alluring Demon entered the company after Yun Jian, the employees who were still there took a double take at Yun Jian in surprise and curiosity.
Alluring Demon was the CEO of Dime And Prime Company. This was a known fact within the organization. However, what was going on now?
Why was their company CEO, Alluring Demon—who had singlehandedly managed Dime And Prime from the small-time company it used to be to one of the top ten MNCs currently—following behind a girl who did not look like she was even 18?
What was the situation?
Before they could dwell on it, Alluring Demon who stayed behind Yun Jian had come to the group of employees who were still working overtime and gone past them.
“Good evening, Ms. Alluring Demon!” These employees greeted politely when said woman went past them. It was just that they gaped when they saw Yun Jian, not knowing how to address her.
It was until both of them had gone some distance away that the workers began to gossip.
“Who’s that girl? Why does it seem like our CEO keeps staying behind her?”
“It’s probably just a coincidence. This is our Ms. CEO you’re talking about! It could only be a coincidence for her to walk behind that girl.”
The female employees who were standing there were incredibly jealous that Yun Jian could make Alluring Demon follow her around like she was commanding her subordinate.
Jealousy was a green-eyed monster as these women then began to delve deeper into the gossip. As they started to talk about it, all of them were either assuming or comforting themselves that it was mere coincidence for Alluring Demon to go after Yun Jian when they overheard Alluring Demon talking to Yun Jian farther away.
“Sister Jian, the company is at a lower season right now due to Hachi Company’s oppression...”
Whatever that followed did not register with the few female employees who were standing around the place. They did, however, catch a keyword.
“Sister Jian”?
The CEO of Dime And Prime Company was actually addressing the girl so respectfully?
What could it mean? Was this girl’s status more esteemed than Alluring Demon?
Who was she?
