Chapter 52: Chapter 52 Watertight
At last, Zhang Mingyu couldn't bear it anymore and spoke up.
"Su Chen, have you gotten used to the group these two days?"
Of course, he wouldn't dive straight into the main topic. However, it was rare that Zhang Mingyu was smiling while asking, almost as if he had practiced it!
"Not bad, the colleagues and environment are quite satisfactory in every aspect."
Su Chen was also playing tai chi, waiting for the other party to reveal their true intentions.
When it came to these superficial maneuvers, Zhang Mingyu was undoubtedly far behind!
"That's good. You will gradually discover more benefits of the group."
Zhang Mingyu, with a beaming smile, stood up to pour a glass of water for Su Chen, then settled back into the sofa, pretending to ask nonchalantly:
"I heard you played chauffeur for Director Xia today. You're quite lucky, lad—many people are envious!"
"I just happened to be conscripted on the spot."
Upon hearing this, Su Chen immediately understood—it was about Xia Qiuru!
He still didn't know why Zhang Mingyu was interested in Xia Qiuru; could it be that he was attracted to her?
Su Chen thought that might indeed be a possibility, given Xia Qiuru's appearance, physique, education, and cultivation!
If that were indeed the case, then Zhang Mingyu truly had an eye for quality.
In his view, Xia Qiuru was indeed a rare gem of a woman!
"Oh, is that so? What a coincidence!"
Zhang Mingyu glanced at Su Chen and said:
"How do you find Director Xia as a person? What did you two talk about?"
Su Chen noticed that Zhang Mingyu, though appearing calm, had his eyes slightly narrowed and his body slightly stiffened—a natural manifestation of nervousness!
But Zhang Mingyu covered it well. If it weren't for Su Chen, it would have been impossible for someone else to notice, or at least very difficult to detect!
"We didn't talk much." Su Chen shook his head and chuckled bitterly, "She's a major director in the group, high above and beyond. How could she have a chat with a mere chauffeur like me?"
Afterward, Zhang Mingyu made several more probing remarks, but Su Chen's replies were watertight and left no room for probing, so Zhang Mingyu eventually had to give up in the face of gaining no useful information.
However, Zhang Mingyu's behavior made Su Chen overturn his previous guess. If Zhang Mingyu were simply infatuated with Xia Qiuru, his behavior wouldn't be like this.
"Why is Zhang Mingyu so concerned about this young woman, Xia Qiuru?"
With this question in mind, Su Chen left Zhang Mingyu's office, and his entire afternoon subsequently passed in idleness.
Even though there were instances requiring driving, the seasoned employees were naturally given priority since every trip was linked to their bonus.
These were typical working-class individuals, living paycheck to paycheck!
In this way, it naturally wouldn't be Su Chen's turn, the newcomer, unless there was a real shortage of hands!
Of course, Su Chen didn't mind and rather enjoyed the leisure!
As soon as six o'clock arrived, and it was time to leave work, he left and drove the BMW 5 Series towards the Yuntian Clubhouse.
It was the peak of rush hour, and as Jianghai was a major city, the streets were bustling with traffic. Fortunately, Su Chen wasn't in a hurry and drove slowly.
About half an hour later, he finally arrived at the grand entrance of the Yuntian Clubhouse.
The Yuntian Clubhouse was a very upscale club in Jianghai City, impressive and majestic from the outside!
Inside, one could find everything from dining and drinking to entertainment, where you could enjoy top-level services as long as you had the money.
After Su Chen parked his car at the entrance and got out, a beautifully dressed PR lady came over immediately.
"Sir, do you have a reservation?"
The lovely PR lady wore a professional smile, which was very pleasant!
Su Chen nodded: "I'm a guest of Miss Ye Mei."
"You must be Mr. Su, please follow me,"
The attractive PR lady immediately understood and made a welcoming gesture:
"Miss Ye has instructed to take you to her as soon as you arrive."
"Okay."
Upon hearing this, Su Chen followed the PR lady into the club. Surprisingly, instead of leading him to a private room, she took him straight through the club's lobby to its rear.
Su Chen couldn't help but murmur to himself, Wasn't I invited for a meal?
What on earth is Ye Mei up to?
At that moment, his curiosity about Ye Mei's intentions only grew!
Soon Su Chen and the PR lady arrived at a quiet little stone-paved path, with vines entwining on both sides and scarcely visited by people.
It must be said, the environment here was truly lovely!
After crossing the stone path, what appeared before Su Chen was an open-air hot spring, and he was momentarily stunned.
Not for any other reason, but for the incredibly graceful figure in the hot spring not far away.
The silhouette in the water seemed unaware of an outsider's arrival, showing no extra movements.
"Miss Ye, Mr. Su is here,"
the PR lady announced by the hot spring, then immediately retreated courteously.
Only then did Ye Mei turn her head around. Upon seeing Su Chen, she stood up and casually draped a bathrobe over herself.
"Mr. Su has arrived."
Ye Mei stepped out of the hot spring pool and said with a slight smile.
"When beauty invites, how could I disappoint? It would be terribly rude, wouldn't it?"
Su Chen said with a light smile.
"But I wonder, what exactly does Miss Ye need from me?"
Su Chen continued.
"To dine, of course!"
Ye Mei chuckled and said:
"It is my honor to have someone like Mr. Su here, it's not easy!"
"How could it be? If Miss Ye invites me daily, I would willingly accept every day!"
Su Chen said, a hint of amusement in his smile.
He certainly knew that Ye Mei's invitation was not for something as simple as just dining!
However, he was indeed still curious about what Ye Mei's sudden invitation meant!
Hearing Su Chen's jest, Ye Mei also laughed heartily, "Giggle," finding him quite an interesting man. Then she said:
"No hurry, we can chat slowly over dinner!"
"Mr. Su, please wait here for a moment. I'll go change my clothes and be right back!"
Ye Mei said with a light laugh once again.
"Okay."
Su Chen nodded. Although curious, he was not in a rush!
Ye Mei then turned and walked toward a small cabin not far away, while Su Chen looked around leisurely.
The beautiful and peaceful environment was indeed a rare gem!
Shortly afterward, Su Chen also lay down on a nearby lounge chair, and took a leisurely nap ...
