Tycoon: I Have an Unlimited Modifier novel Chapter 248

Chapter 248: Chapter 148: Please Call Me Mahjong Master

After receiving her Chanel bag, Lai Manling walked off the stage, overjoyed.

She shared her excitement with a close coworker who had started at the company around the same time.

"Wow, Manling, you’re so lucky! How about you sell it to me? It’ll save me a trip to the boutique."

"Hmph, in your dreams! I’m not selling."

Lai Manling protectively clutched the shopping bag containing the purse to her ample chest.

She didn’t even dare to unbox it now, afraid it would get dirty from the food later.

"Unbox it now and let us see! We’ve never seen such an expensive bag before."

"The price of my bag isn’t even a tenth of the boss’s wife’s."

Looking toward the front where Qi Sheng was sitting, Lai Manling’s expression was tinged with envy.

"The boss’s wife’s bag is a classic Hermes Birkin, and it’s made of rare crocodile skin. The list price alone is almost 600,000, and with the required purchase history, it costs at least a million to get your hands on one!"

"Hee hee, Manling, you’re not bad yourself. Why don’t you offer yourself to him? Maybe the boss will take you in, and then you’ll be a boss’s wife too."

"Oh, get out of here! Stop teasing me. I’m not that lucky."

Hearing her colleague’s joke, Lai Manling blushed, a little embarrassed.

’It would be a lie to say I don’t want to.’

’But I’m just a new, low-level employee.’

’How could I ever get close to the high-and-mighty chairman of the group?’

Besides, their company, Tiansheng Capital, was still just a small, fledgling operation.

Although it reported directly to the group’s headquarters, it didn’t even have a single concrete project yet.

Lai Manling had joined Tiansheng Capital because the work environment and compensation package were quite good.

Most importantly, it offered a two-day weekend.

In Chengdu, it was incredibly difficult to find a job with an eight-hour workday that paid over ten thousand a month, offered a two-day weekend, and provided full social insurance and housing fund contributions.

The difficulty was comparable to passing the civil service exam.

It had taken Lai Manling a great deal of effort to stand out from the numerous rounds of interviews.

Before the annual gala began, she had seen the boss and the boss’s wife walk in hand-in-hand.

Lai Manling had been stunned by their appearance and felt a deep pang of envy.

Young, rich, and handsome, Qi Sheng was the perfect boyfriend template in the hearts of nearly every female employee at Shengxuan Group.

And she was no exception.

"Wow, it’s truly the pinnacle of Chengdu’s Sichuan cuisine! The dishes from Zifei Restaurant are absolutely incredible!"

"This is so delicious! No wonder it’s 1,000 per person at Zifei. This flavor is worth the price."

"There are 700 people here. The food alone must cost 700,000! Good thing Zifei is the boss’s restaurant; he’s probably just charging us at cost."

"Damn, our company is so loaded. I have a feeling it’s going to get harder and harder to get a job here in the future."

"Either way, you couldn’t pay me to quit. I’d have to be brain-dead to even consider it."

...

At Qi Sheng’s table, besides him and Tan Hua, were Yuan Li, Zhou Huaiping, Peng Qingsong, Jie Chao, Liu Zheng, Qiu Lei, and other key personnel.

Even Zong Rui and the other women were at a separate table.

Aside from Qi Sheng’s table, theirs was the most eye-catching.

For one simple reason: there were too many beautiful women.

The two top-tier beauties, Zong Rui and Pei Yinyin.
