Hachi Company was the company of Maier’s father as well as the workplace of Maier who had been courting Alluring Demon.
Due to its long years of establishment that contrasted Dime And Prime Company’s short years of success, Hachi Company was better known internationally than Yun Jian’s Dime And Prime.
The sole reason Yun Jian had come to Country M’s Maryland this time was because she was concerned about Dime And Prime Company. Hachi had been oppressing Dime And Prime.
Maier was Hachi Company’s CEO and had targeted Dime And Prime just to court Alluring Demon but his father, Maide, the director of Hachi, had been coveting Dime And Prime for a long time. He wanted to acquire Dime And Prime Company as his own.
Although Alluring Demon was Dime And Prime’s CEO, her ability was limited. She was at a disadvantage battling a long-time enterpriser like Maide.
Maide was unlike their past competitors. He had come to this stage today with proven ability and influence. That was why Yun Jian came to warn him, the director of Hachi Company, before she left for Yulong Mainland; the man might have already made his move before she could return from Yulong Mainland otherwise.
Of course, it was not like Yun Jian’s warning would be effective just because she was the director of Dime And Prime Company.
Yun Jian squinted. She had not expected Ge Xuan’s roommates to be on her way as well. It worked in coincidence—she now had a guise to slip into Hachi Company.
“Meimei, are you really going to Hachi Company with the three of them?” Ge Xuan’s voice broke Yun Jian’s train of thought. He was slightly skeptical. Was his younger sister really following his roommates to Hachi Company?
Ge Xuan had been a delinquent previously and often stayed out late into the night but it was an intentional act to anger Ge Junjian. The reason he did not get along with his three roommates now was because the trio fooled around by going to clubs and sleeping around with women; it was also common for them to touch women inappropriately.
Ge Xuan had thought that Yun Jian would decline the trio’s invitation, so it was a surprise that she agreed.
“Meimei, you’re unfamiliar with the area. I think it’s best you don’t wander. Where do you stay for now? I’ll send you back to your hotel,” Ge Xuan said and made his way to her.
Zhang Jiangui shoved Ge Xuan away right after he said that and grinned lecherously at Yun Jian, telling Ge Xuan, “She’s happy to go with us. What are you trying to say, Ge Xuan? We share a dorm. Do you not trust us or what?”
Ge Xuan furrowed his brows deeper once Zhang Jiangui said that. Although he knew that his younger sister was the racer SG and an Advanced Special Forces soldier, he was still worried for her. After all, she was just a girl to Ge Xuan despite her shocking identity.
Glancing at Yun Jian, Ge Xuan knew that she would definitely do what she said, so he spoke up after a pause, “I’ll go too!”
Zhang Jiangui and the rest did not stop Ge Xuan from going anyway. After Ge Xuan kept the bottles of pickled vegetables in the dorm room, they made their way to Hachi Company.
Summer was all bright and glaring. With the burning sun hanging high in the sky, a stroll on the street would drench one in sweat.
Zhang Jiangui was struggling with the heat. Glancing at Yun Jian out of the corner of his eye, he took off his clothes and hung it on his shoulder to show off his abs. When Yun Jian did not look over to him, he went over to ask her, “It’s so hot. Do you want to have an ice cream to quench the thirst?”
Without waiting for Yun Jian’s reply, Zhang Jiangui ordered Ge Xuan to do the errand for him like usual, “Ge Xuan, go get me…”
Just as he started, he suddenly felt that it was awkward for him to order Yun Jian’s brother around right in front of the girl, so he went off to buy the ice cream himself… When he finally came back and passed the ice cream to Yun Jian, the girl replied coldly, “I don’t eat ice cream.”
