The Su family almost monopolized the diamond industry on the continent. Due to their immense power and influence on the mainland, many Hong Kong and Taiwan diamond brands found it impossible to fully penetrate the Chinese market without a solid and covert political foundation. Market economy, in essence, still relies heavily on policy guidance. In China, if any businessman has a political background, as long as they know some insider policies beforehand, they can easily stay ahead of others.
Fortunately, because the Philadelphia Royal Family already owned two diamond mines in South Africa, from mining to polishing and packaging transportation, everything was done in one go. This greatly reduced costs, giving them a natural competitive advantage compared to the Su family. Even if we exclude the expensive tariffs and policy pressures, the Royal Family's price and profit margins for diamonds are still slightly higher than those of the Su family.
Zhang Mingqi has been very busy recently. Ever since Wang Zheng handed over the promotion business of the Philadelphia Royal Family on the mainland to her, Zhang Mingqi, this business tycoon, started working tirelessly. All promotional plans were personally crafted by her, and she was extremely meticulous about it. Since this matter involved that ultimate secret, Zhang Mingqi didn't dare delegate it to others either, which satisfied Wang Zheng greatly.
While accompanying Shangguan Shishi, Wang Zheng would occasionally stroll around the Blue Sea area. However, most of the time, Zhang Mingqi was too busy to pay attention to him, and Wang Zheng didn't mind this at all. Yet there was once when he ran into Zhan Mingquan, the young master of the Blue Sea. Since being beaten and intimidated by Li Jian last time, Zhan Mingquan had become much more reserved and dared not bother Sheng Fei again. Upon seeing Wang Zheng this time, he discreetly glared at him and then quickly fled.
Wang Zheng didn't take such young masters seriously; he never put them in his heart. Such young rascals couldn't even compare to the notorious playboys of Beijing, relying solely on their parents' wealth. As long as they were scared off once, there would be no worries afterwards.
Zhang Mingqi's indifference towards Wang Zheng didn't bother him either. He often went to Sheng Fei's office for a chat. As the design director and one of the major shareholders of Blue Sea, Sheng Fei's office was spacious and tasteful. Wang Zheng enjoyed drinking the genuine Blue Mountain coffee made by her with her coffee machine very much; it reminded him of his days abroad, where in those small bars of chaos there were always the purest Blue Mountains that no café in the world could rival.
Leaning comfortably on a large sofa, while sipping coffee and watching Sheng Fei who was drawing with her head bowed down, Wang Zheng noticed traces of Old Sheng's focus when she concentrated on sketching. Smiling occasionally at him before returning to work, she reminded him of the old days when Old Sheng focused more than anyone else in battle.
Indeed, with her long hair tied behind her ears, exposing her slender earlobes and fair neck, she was already a beautiful woman worthy of ninety points in Wang Zheng's heart. Now that she had matured into an OL, she added a refreshing charm to it, making her very alluring.
"Is it good-looking" Sheng Fei suddenly raised her head from amidst the pile of sketches and looked at Wang Zheng with a playful smile on her lips.
“Good-looking…,” Wang Zheng reacted somewhat slowly, only realizing that he had been tricked into admitting by Sheng Fei. He then noticed her slightly cunning gaze for the first time, causing him to blush rarely.
However, Wang's bodyguard reacted quickly. He coughed twice and said, "Everything looks good, from top to bottom."
"If you like it, then take your time to look," Sheng Fei wanted to tease Wang Zheng but ended up being teased back by him, her face turning red as well. Despite not showing any weakness verbally, she couldn't help feeling a slight sweetness in her heart.
"Have you been home recently to visit your mother" Wang Zheng abruptly asked.
"I've been too busy and haven't gone back yet," Sheng Fei looked directly at Wang Zheng with some confusion. "How do you know so much about my situation"
Old Sheng came from a village in the northern part of South Jiang. After joining the army, he had little energy to care for family matters; his wife, children, and parents were all left back home. However, it was due to Sheng Fei's own efforts that she managed to get into a prestigious university in the capital city and now has such good employment conditions. Sheng Fei had proposed multiple times to bring her mother to live in the capital city, but her mother always cited reasons like her grandparents' advanced age and difficulty adapting to life there as excuses for staying at home.
Sheng Fei understood that this was possibly because her father had served many years in the army in the capital city, which is why her mother refused to come.
About Old Sheng, all Sheng Fei knew was that her father was a special forces soldier; she knew nothing else about him.
Sheng Fei felt helpless and could only send most of her monthly salary home so that her mother and family members could improve their living conditions. She had decided to buy a spacious house in the capital city someday, and on her next return visit, regardless of what happened, she would bring her relatives there to live, fulfilling filial duties.
Wang Zheng smiled but didn't intend to answer; at that moment, his phone rang.
A call from Zhang Mingqi.
"Hello, Miss Zhang, what do you need" Wang Zheng glanced at the watch with a smile. "Are you looking to invite me for dinner It's already two hours past work hours; both you and Sheng Fei are still working overtime, and I'm hungry too."
"I want to talk to you," Zhang Mingqi said straightforwardly.
"What to talk about Careers or... something else" Wang Zheng could hear Zhang Mingqi's tone was unusually calm, very unlike her usual style of speaking. However, this extremely seductive woman spoke seriously with her sultry voice, adding another layer of sensuality.
Wang Zheng would never refuse to chat with a sexy woman; it's such an enjoyable experience, at the very least prolonging his lifespan.
"I'm in a bad mood. Come to my office," said Zhang Mingqi before hanging up.
Wang Zheng rolled his eyes: "This woman really is domineering."
Sheng Fei smiled faintly across the table: "Zhang Mingqi is very sexy, you'd better keep your composure."
Wang Zheng crumpled an A4 sheet of paper into a ball and threw it at Sheng Fei's head. With a smile, he said, "You can go home after work by yourself. By the way, last time Shang Guan Qinglang scratched your car; I'll help you get the repair fee later. Or maybe just scratch his Porsche."
Sheng Fei laughed and replied: "Such an exciting event, make sure to call me when it happens. If Han Xinye is around, he will probably try to stir up more trouble."
"You don't seem like the type who enjoys a commotion," Wang Zheng said with some confusion.
Previously, whenever Wang Zheng caused trouble with Shang Guan Shishi and Han Xinye, Sheng Fei would always play the role of the sobering voice of reason. This time wanting to join in was quite surprising for Wang Zheng.
"People change," Sheng Fei said as she tucked her long hair behind her ear, a gesture that made one's mouth go dry.
Wang Zheng arrived at the president's office and saw Zhang Mingqi standing by the floor-to-ceiling window with a glass of red wine in hand. She swirled it gently before taking a sip.
Zhang Mingqi’s sensuality is shocking, omnipresent. The word “sexy” permeates every corner of her body and every movement. For men who lack self-control, just seeing Zhang Mingqi's incredibly alluring figure regardless of what she wears would likely make them surrender at once.
A woman born as an elf, it must be said that Zhang Mingqi's innate advantages are truly excellent.
Wang Zheng took the cup from Zhang Mingqi’s hand and gently placed it on the desk. He asked, "If your mood isn't good, how do you plan to adjust"
Wang Zheng understood that after he told Zhang Mingqi about her mother's death, she would definitely show this kind of restlessness and anxiety. After all, anyone who knows their own birth mother was killed by someone else would surely break down. If she were an ordinary woman, perhaps she would directly go to the Su Family for retribution. Zhang Mingqi being able to endure until now is already quite commendable.
"To a bar," Zhang Mingqi sighed and said, "I'm tired. I want to unwind, so can you drive me"
After saying that, Zhang Mingqi tossed the keys for the Maserati to Wang Zheng. Then, without any pretense, she stretched her body, revealing a curve that left Wang Zheng breathless and nearly nosebleed-inducing.
Only now did Wang Zheng realize that being with Zhang Mingqi wasn't something that would prolong his life; too many nosebleeds could lead to kidney deficiency.
...
Zhang Mingqi sat at the bar counter, slowly sipping on her Martini as she stood out in this noisy environment. Changing lights cast shadows on a row of empty glasses in front of her, accentuating her solitude and loneliness.
Sitting next to Zhang Mingqi, Wang Zheng looked at her lost-in-thought face, occasionally glancing at the dancing bodies not far away before absentmindedly withdrawing his gaze.
The row of empty glasses were all downed by Zhang Mingqi. Wang Zheng didn't stop her because he understood that this kind of emotion needed to be released, and eventually, it would become a habit. He himself had been through the same when he was younger.
Ever since she learned about the truth of her mother's death, Zhang Mingqi often came here after work. The sudden change in life made her even more melancholic and coldhearted when alone, but in this testosterone-fueled environment, such a melancholy yet seductive aura was undoubtedly lethal to those driven by carnal desires.
In the chaotic dance floor, men and women were wildly dancing, screaming, and venting their endless energy and desire.at now, the two of them must unite their efforts if there was any chance to overcome this crisis!A cold light flashed in Zhang Xuan's eyes; these two severely injured individuals could hardly pose any...
