Domination of the Aristocratic Dynasty After a Body Swap with the CEO

Chapter 183

After getting a definite reply from her brother, Song Shuling eagerly went to resign from her supervisor.

She had been working at the amusement park for over half a year. Although she was a rich second generation, she had always kept a low profile, eating and living with her colleagues and even sharing a dorm with them. She was neither spoiled nor arrogant. Aside from several close coworkers, few people in the park knew she came from a wealthy family.

Because she truly enjoyed this job, her work performance had always been great. The cat mascot character she played had also become immensely popular over the past half year, with tourists finding the cat especially cute this year. This led to sold-out merchandise of the cat character.

Now that she suddenly wanted to resign, her supervisor couldn't accept it at first and anxiously asked, "Did you run into any difficulties with the job? This quarter is almost over and you've been doing very well. The park has decided to give you a raise. If you have any issues with your personal life, feel free to let us know!"

Song Shuling waved her hands repeatedly. "No, Brother Li. I really like this job and I haven't run into any difficulties. It's just that I've found a job I like even more and a dream I want to pursue even more."

The supervisor thought to himself, could she have been poached by a competitor? He quickly asked, "What is the job exactly? We can also offer management positions."

Song Shuling smiled shyly. "I'm going back to start my own company."

Supervisor: "?"

Song Shuling went on. "Oh yes, Brother Li, I heard from others that the park is planning to rebuild the Rushing to the Sky area and create the highest, longest, most comprehensive roller coaster theme park domestically. Is that right?"

The supervisor still hadn't recovered from the shock that his junior employee wanted to resign and start her own company. Hearing her ask this, he numbly nodded. "Yes, that's right."

Song Shuling's eyes shone brightly. "Do you need investors? I really like our park. Although I'll be leaving, I still hope the park becomes even better. If I can help out in any way, that would be wonderful."

The supervisor was even more baffled. "We do need investment, but the initial projection is 200 million RMB. How much can you invest?"

Song Shuling calculated her savings. Ever since her brother had returned to China to take over the company, the dividends she received from the company each month had increased. And after working at the amusement park, she also hadn't spent much money. Adding that to the monthly allowance from her grandparents and fourth aunt, she had quite a large sum saved up.

So she asked excitedly, "Can I invest it all?"

The supervisor's voice cracked in shock. "That's 200 million! The actual cost may be even higher when construction starts!"

Song Shuling: "I know, I have enough savings."

Supervisor: "???"

Why! Why did his junior employee who played a mascot have so much more savings than him!!!

Investing in the amusement park was also Ji Xing's suggestion to her. Since she loved this place so much, being a shareholder would be nice even if she couldn't work here anymore. Moreover, Ji Xing had investigated the profitability of the amusement park in recent years and given her positive feedback. If her talent agency failed one day, at least she would still have this profitable investment generating income.

Although Song Shuling was angry that her brother didn't approve of her starting a company, she still accepted his advice as a businessman.

With a resignation letter in one hand and an investment contract in the other, Song Shuling walked out of the supervisor's office while he still had a dazed look.

She didn't have much luggage in the dorm, just some spare clothes and unfinished daily supplies that she left for her roommate. Carrying a small suitcase downstairs, Zhong Ruanxing's car had just pulled up outside.

Song Shuling happily waved to the people in the car, about to run over when someone suddenly called her from behind. "Shuling."

She turned around to see Ji Xiao looking a bit dejected.

Song Shuling pursed her lips. "Ji Xiao, when did you come back?"

Ji Xiao smiled lightly. "I heard you resigned and were leaving the dorm today, so I came to see you off."

Zhong Ruanxing had parked the car and stood by the door without coming over.

Let her handle it herself.

But Ji Xiao had already seen her. He stood up straight and politely nodded to her from afar. Zhong Ruanxing also returned his greeting.

Song Shuling looked back at her "brother" for a moment. The hesitation in her eyes quickly turned into determination as she spoke, "Ji Xiao, I'm sorry but I can't reciprocate your feelings. I admit I had some fondness for you, but it's not enough for me to be with you. I don't want to date right now."

A flash of loneliness passed through Ji Xiao's eyes but was soon replaced by brightness. "No need to apologize. Pursuing you was my own decision. If I didn't succeed, it's because I wasn't good enough, and has nothing to do with you."

He took a deep breath, as if making a big decision. "Shuling, I know there is a gap between us. You're outstanding, both as a person and in background, more than I can match up to right now. I will strive to close this gap. When I've made myself worthy of you, will you give me another chance to pursue you?"

Song Shuling was surprised for a moment, then smiled. "Sure, if I'm still single then."

Ji Xiao clenched his fist as if pumping himself up. "Then I'll work hard faster." His smile was bright with no trace of the rejection or sadness of parting. "Go on then, don't keep your brother waiting too long. Let's keep in touch! Bye!"

Song Shuling also waved to him. "Alright, bye bye, all the best."

Dragging her suitcase, she walked over to the car. Looking back after getting in, Ji Xiao still stood in the same spot watching this way. The smile on his face had faded, leaving behind some loneliness and loss.

Zhong Ruanxing also glanced at him before driving off. "All settled?"

Song Shuling gave an "Mm" then said after a while, "Brother, I actually think Ji Xiao is quite outstanding. The gap between us isn't as big as he said. People just can't choose how they're born."

Zhong Ruanxing replied, "Of course. Because you're outstanding enough to attract other outstanding pursuers. And striving to improve oneself for a loved one is in itself very romantic. If he can achieve it, that is."

Song Shuling nodded in agreement. She was no longer the insecure, timid girl from before.

Back then, she could only attract bugs like Wen Fei and even treasured those bugs. Now, she was self-assured and discerning, not easily swayed by niceness alone. She had more of her own thoughts and ideas.

Song Shuling felt rather proud. "Then he'll have to work even harder. After all, I'm about to become the boss of a company now! I'm even more awesome than before!"

Zhong Ruanxing laughed at her antics. "Yes, yes, Boss Song, when will your company be registered? How much is the startup capital? How much of a signing bonus will you give me?"

Song Shuling was thrilled, balling her hands into fists near her mouth. "I didn't expect to be called Boss Song one day! Being Boss Song feels so exciting! I want to be an even more awesome Boss Song than my brother!"
