Trillionaire's Slice of Life

It was now nine forty-three, with only seventeen minutes left until the school closed.

A tall bodyguard in a light blue suit was the first to open the car door, just as the woman in the cheongsam was about to get into the back seat, a crisp voice suddenly came from behind her!

"Miss Wu, could you leave me your contact information? I\'ll have the hotel issue a platinum card for you and deliver it to you tomorrow, is that okay?"

Wearing stockings and a short skirt, paired with a tight T-shirt, Zhan Bingxue smiled as she spoke, causing several nearby men who were also preparing to leave to unconsciously stop in their tracks. Even though they were used to seeing beautiful women, their eyes still held a hint of amazement when they looked at Zhan Bingxue.

Wu Xinran, dressed in a purple cheongsam, paused slightly, her slender, jade-like hands gently twined together. As a hint of dilemma flashed across her beautiful cheeks, she said weakly:

"Although I know that a hotel experience card doesn\'t really mean much to Mr. Chu, I didn\'t actually help Mr. Chu just now. If I brazenly accept it, I would feel ashamed!

So… please convey my message to Mr. Chu: I appreciate his kind gesture!"

With burgundy hair flowing gently in the night breeze, Zhan Bingxue\'s smile remained in her eyes, but her voice took on an even softer tone!

"Miss Wu, you\'re overthinking it. Mr. Chu is giving you this card just because he delayed your time and wanted to express his apology.

Beyond that, since Mr. Chu personally entrusted me with this task, it would be difficult for me if Miss Wu insists on not accepting. Time is running short, Miss Wu should no longer hesitate!"

Amidst the woman\'s hesitation, Zhan Bingxue obtained the other party\'s number, then watched the Rolls-Royce drive away. Touching the agate worth ten million yuan in her hand, Zhan Bingxue\'s smile gradually faded as she turned to go back!

The rows of cheongsam-clad receptionists on both sides once again welcomed with clear voices, Zhan Bingxue glanced indifferently over the brilliantly decorated lobby…

If Mr. Chu really takes over this hotel valued at 8.5 billion, would I have even broader prospects for development?

Boarding the elevator, Zhan Bingxue finally relaxed a little in the confined space as she stood alone.

She looked at the agate and jade stone she had been holding in her hands, and if she wasn\'t mistaken, the value of these two little items might reach twenty million!

When will I ever have the chance to wear them!

Soon after, the elevator bell rang, she adjusted her mindset, and the moment she stepped out of the elevator, Zhan Bingxue returned to her calm and competent demeanor, striding forward.

Gently pushing open the partially concealed door of the Presidential Suite, at the huge floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room, a tall figure stood quietly with a glass of red wine in hand.

The view outside was a splendid cityscape. From here looking down at the night scene must feel like having the whole city beneath one\'s feet!

Without disturbing the young man\'s elegance, Zhan Bingxue, with her high heels softly clicked, approached leisurely, her heart unexpectedly beginning to race.

Suddenly she remembered a chat with her best friend, she had once told Yang Xuan that she was determined to charm this top-tier, wealthy and handsome man…

However, now, with her growing understanding of the young man, Zhan Bingxue\'s confidence dwindled. He shattered her expectations time after time, standing before her tall and statuesque, almost as if she had to look up to him!

Just as she came up behind him and was about to speak, the man\'s deep and solemn voice suddenly reached her ears!

"Manager Zhan, if you had to choose between love and career, which one would you pick?"

The light words dropped, and in a sudden shock, staring at the young man\'s resolute profile, just as Zhan Bingxue was about to blurt out her response, the man spoke again:

"Don\'t rush to answer. Think about it carefully, and when you\'re sure, tell me your answer!"

Her stunning face suddenly turned extremely serious. At that moment, Zhan Bingxue\'s heart thumped like a drum, her body starting to shake slightly with nervousness!

Swiftly reviewing her recent actions, she confirmed that she had done nothing outrageous, her gaze lightly swept across the side profile of the man in front of her.

Through the golden glasses perched on his nose, Zhan Bingxue saw the man relaxed, gazing indifferently at the beautiful view ahead; following his gaze, the fifty-eighth floor\'s presidential suite granted her a vast panorama...

The starlight was brilliantly overhead, with the stunning vista of The Bund fully in view at the end of her sight.

So, was this another pivotal choice that would shape her future?

Love or career!

Choose one

...!

Gently closing her eyes, her once shaking body steadily regained calmness; the memories that flooded Zhan Bingxue\'s mind at this moment, however, spanned her entire early life.

She had a vague premonition that if she chose love, she would miss out on her current life.

Would she return to Tianxia Real Estate, to be that middling regional manager, overshadowed by some and overachieving compared to others, then settle for a mediocre man for a bland life, or, restless for calm, climb into bed with that potbellied boss...

If she chose a career, she would follow in the footsteps of the young man before her, who would lead her to conquer greater heights, to enjoy views only accessible to a select few, step by step dominating the world beneath her feet!

Thus, it was a tough yet simultaneously simple choice!

Love equaled a life as placid as the still waters.

Career equaled a life of magnificent ups and downs!

Indeed, one can never have the best of both worlds!

When she gently opened her eyes, to her surprise, she felt a sense of tranquility wash over her, a faint smile curled at her lips, Zhan Bingxue knew that in her heart the answer had already been there, and the time spent thinking was just to give herself a chance to back out, but now, the answer was etched deep in her heart!

With a demeanor growing more respectful, Zhan Bingxue softly said:

"I choose my career."

As if he had anticipated this, the man in front turned, walked to the couch, picked something up from the coffee table, and then gently tossed it to her.

When Zhan Bingxue instinctively caught it and spread her hands open, she saw that what landed in her palms was the car key to an Aston Martin!

"This car is yours from now on. Tomorrow, see Lin Hongqiang and sign off on the villa on Greenery Avenue. You\'ll live there for the time being. Furthermore, handle the hotel shares yourself with those old foxes, twenty-five billion, thirty percent of the shares, that\'s my bottom line.

As for Lin Hongqiang getting the money and wanting a bigger share, let the four of them discuss it.

Remember, all four are cunning foxes, but definitely not a unified front; thirty percent of the shares, and we can undoubtedly become the biggest shareholder. By forming alliances and causing division... I won\'t question your methods, just ensure we gain control of this hotel...!"

The handsomely featured young man spoke measuredly, yet at this moment, Zhan Bingxue felt as though she was stepping into a celestial realm!

A car worth forty-seven million, a seven billion luxury house, an eighty-five billion five-star hotel - were these the rewards for choosing a career?

"Xiao Xue, I\'ve given you the opportunity, don\'t disappoint me. Also, I hope you\'ll always remember my words: there are two things I despise the most in life—one is betrayal, the other is still betrayal. I can give you everything you desire, but I can also make you fall into hell in an instant!"

The man\'s calm words were firmly imprinted in her mind. At this moment, Zhan Bingxue gently bowed her head, and the deep adoration in her eyes was carefully concealed.
