Chapter 67: Do You Work at Blue Moon Technology Company?

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Zhao Yu turned his head and saw a young girl who seemed about fifteen or sixteen. She wore two ponytails, her hair was glossy black, and her skin was tender, as clear as snow. Her eyes sparkled with life, and her lips were rosy against her white teeth. She was adorable.

“No, thank you!” Zhao Yu waved his hand and refused.

Being thirty already, he was aware that he shouldn’t accept drinks from strangers, especially when he’s out.

Particularly if it’s from a woman, he had to be extra cautious.

Even if the cap looked perfectly sealed, who knew if the other party had tampered with the bottle, perhaps injecting something inside.

“Wow, you were so amazing at basketball just now!”

Despite being rejected, the twin-tailed girl wasn’t disheartened. She positioned herself in front of Zhao Yu, her face filled with admiration.

…..

Zhao Yu took a moment to size her up.

The girl in front of him was pet.i.te, barely five feet tall. She had a delicate figure, seeming quite fragile.

Her clothes were fashionable; a pink princess dress with multiple layers, really intricate.

She was wearing a pair of child-sized crystal shoes. Her lacy stockings were adorned with a b.u.t.terfly ribbon that shimmered, as if a real b.u.t.terfly had landed on it. It looked lovely.

“YOU, would you like to be with me?”

What on earth just happened?

Zhao Yu was stunned. He examined her expression closely. She looked serious, not like she was joking.

“What did you say?”

“Do you want to be my boyfriend?!”

Zhao Yu touched his face. Did he become more attractive?!

“If you don’t want to speak, that’s fine. I had to muster a lot of courage to ask…” The girl pouted, seemingly a bit upset, and turned to leave.

Inwardly, he was already calculating how long it would take for her to return.

Watching her retreating figure, Zhao Yu shook his head subtly, deciding against it. She was too young, only about fifteen or sixteen. He was almost thirty; it felt wrong!

Without giving it further thought, Zhao Yu got up, planning to head to the washroom to freshen up.

“Zhao Yu has given his consent to be part of the ribbon-cutting ceremony…”

Chang ‘an 4.04 Base was a secret. Colonel Chu was holding a phone and reporting the situation to the headquarters of Xiadu.

“Well done. We need to keep up the promotion, granting him due respect… Moreover, how is the seduction plan unfolding?”

“We’ve discreetly leaked Zhao Yu’s whereabouts. The heiresses of major financial conglomerates are making their way to him. Whether they’ll succeed in charming him depends on their capabilities…”

“Right. For the next few days, stay put in Chang’an, ensure he’s well-attended.

Also, try your best to probe into his ambitions and interests…”

“I know…”

Colonel Chu put down the phone and started to think.

The plans – be it the ribbon-cutting event or keeping Zhao Yu on Earth – were all brainchildren of Great Xia’s strategy team. Chu’s role was just to execute.

The plan to lure Zhao Yu using fame, wealth, power, and beauty in order to find his weaknesses was a strategic move. If successful, controlling Zhao Yu would become significantly easier.

“w.a.n.g Dayue, do you think they can succeed?!”

“Quite likely. The women selected by these conglomerates are globally renowned beauties, each unique and perfect in their own way. Even I, upon looking at them, am captivated. Wouldn’t Zhao Yu, a man, be even more susceptible?!”

“Indeed, with this, we should be able to bring Zhao Yu under control…”

Colonel Chu nodded in agreement. He had shown the pictures of these women to his male colleagues and everyone seemed smitten.

If even they, individuals with iron wills, were enchanted, how could Zhao Yu, a common man, resist?!

Gao Qi sat in the car, her mind preoccupied, struggling with an internal conflict.

As the saying goes, a good cow does not graze on turned ground.

She had closed the chapter with Zhao Yu, so there shouldn’t be any ties left.

Yet, CEO Yu treated her exceptionally well and presented a ma.s.sive opportunity before her.

After grappling with her feelings, she decided that her ambitions outweighed her emotions. That’s the only reason she had come.

She could pretend to love him on the surface, while in reality, she’d control the game.

Gao Qi steeled herself, deciding to let go of her pride for the sake of her future, to reclaim Zhao Yu.

She was well-acquainted with Zhao Yu. A little sweet talk, and he’d be back under her influence.

“Daughter, this Zhao Yu is pivotal for the Eight Lakes Group’s future growth. When you meet him, you must cultivate a good rapport…”

“Don’t worry, Dad. I will…”

Qiao Shuyu a.s.sented, excitement fluttering within her. She saw this as an exceptional opportunity.

Qiao Shuyu had always felt blessed and fortunate since her childhood.

The cherished only daughter of Qiao Rongjun, the chairman of Eight Lakes Group, she was the envy of all – a perfect blend of beauty, wealth, and grace.

Her parents cherished each other, often appearing together on various media platforms.

Being an only child, she was showered with love, spoiled to her heart’s content.

While others had to master numerous skills from a young age, like company management or leadership qualities, she was allowed to revel in the joys of life under her father’s indulgence.

However, all this changed dramatically a year ago.

She now had a younger brother.

Qiao Rongjun, her father, brought home a 16-year-old boy who was only two years younger than her, introducing him as her new brother. With him was the so-called ‘second mother’.

At that moment, the idealized image of her father shattered in her mind.

Qiao Shuyu finally understood why her father had indulged her whims all these years.

It was because he had never intended her to succeed him at the company.

She had protested, caused a fuss, but all to no avail.

Her usually compliant father was unyielding on this matter.

He even went as far as to let this strange woman and her son live in their family manor

Since then, Qiao Shuyu had moved out, residing alone in an otherwise vacant manor.

Now, an opportunity had presented itself.

From her father’s words, she understood that Zhao Yu held significant importance. The officials of Great Xia were even basing their decision to grant the regional rights for the Blue Moon Technology Company on Zhao Yu’s personal preferences.

She wasn’t interested in Zhao Yu’s background or ident.i.ty.

She only had one thought.

If she could secure Zhao Yu, would she be able to regain control over the Eight Lakes Group?

When that time came, she would banish her father’s mistress and illegitimate son from their lives!

In the school’s washroom.

On a drainage pipe, a few boys were washing their faces. One of them was Zhao Yu.

“Zhao Yu!”

Wiping the droplets of water from his eyes, Zhao Yu looked up to see He Jingxuan and Gao Qi, two acquaintances, standing together.

“What brings you two here?”

Gao Qi didn’t say anything. She lowered her head slightly and seemed a little nervous.

Her strategy of temptation had always been effective, allowing her to control Zhao Yu in the past.

The only hiccup was running into He Jingxuan on the way.

He Jingxuan smiled, “Just revisiting our old school. I ran into Gao Qi, and now we’ve found you. What a coincidence…”

Zhao Yu exchanged a few cordial words with them.

During the conversation, He Jingxuan took the opportunity to discreetly size up Zhao Yu. He seemed ordinary: unbranded clothes and shoes, no noticeable accessories around his neck or on his hands.

…..

This puzzled her. Had the consortium identified the correct person?

This made her very confused. Did the consortium really find the right person?

Was this ordinary-looking Zhao Yu the man they were supposed to find?

Testing the waters, she ventured, “Zhao Yu, are you employed at Blue Moon Technology Company?”
