Chapter 229: 174. Although it’s simple, it’s very useful!_2

"Your company’s biggest star."

Zhong Ruixi didn’t like to beat around the bush, she pondered for a few seconds, then looked around and whispered in his ear.

Then, feeling unsatisfied, she clenched her teeth and forcefully uttered her name.

"Mou! Keyan!"

This was exactly the answer in Mr. Lu’s mind.

True, the naturally charming Miao Miao had quickly become the common thorn in the sides of both Zhong Ruixi and Zhou Sinin.

Number one rival!

A fiercely competitive, deadly seductress.

Who asked her to be so high-profile all the time?

Although Zhong Ruixi didn’t stick around till the last day of the Carnival, she spent plenty of time surfing online.

Mou Keyan and she were both hosts at the welcoming party, and they also had each other on WeChat. That very night, Miao Miao had posted on her Moments.

It was a video of her walking the red carpet with Mr. Lu, filmed by a dedicated and professional employee, brilliantly edited afterwards.

She was linked arm in arm with Lu Jincheng, like a true celebrity couple reviewing their fans, and beneath the high-definition quality, her smile shone brilliantly.

This head-on impact was indeed hard to defend against.

Zhou Sinin was displeased after seeing it, and so was Zhong Ruixi.

But in this regard, the law student Guan Yongyi was much more magnanimous.

She really didn’t care.

Guan Guan had a clear sense of hierarchy and deep down, she didn’t think Mou Keyan was in her league.

It had nothing to do with money, not even driving a Porsche would change that.

Guan Yongyi had seen Mou Keyan’s contract with her own eyes, she naturally didn’t see the senior as a threat.

Her legal thinking, trained from a young age, filled part of her cognition with cold logic.

An employee is just an employee, status is what it is.

If the boss asks you to link arms for work, it’s no big deal.

She completely didn’t care.

As for anything beyond work?

Please, focus on the main problem first, don’t overthink.

This was also why she was so baffled when Zhou Sinin told her she felt jealous, completely unexpected with such a twist, hence she spoke incoherently.

Because his subordinate was jealous?

Lu Jincheng was exactly that type, and even the people in the Ran Dong WeChat group, including himself, knew he was unreliable.

That’s just his persona, what’s there to be jealous about?

But she also felt relieved, thankfully Mou Keyan overtly drew the attention.

Otherwise, one day,

it might just be exposed...

"Why are you laughing? Is it funny?"

Zhong Ruixi’s breaths grew deeper, her firm chest heaved twice as if holding back.

"I’m being serious!"

Of course, she was serious.

If Mou Keyan was considered a rival, then for most girls she was an insurmountable figure, even somewhat out of reach.

Young, beautiful, with a hot body, and exceptional dancing skills.

Now add to that a massive fan base and essentially financial freedom.

Just her Boxster parked outside the Music and Dance College dormitory was the ultimate dream endpoint for countless people.

How do you compete with such a rival?

"Alright, alright, I know you’re serious."

Lu Jincheng laughed, his mouth corners involuntarily curling up, feeling quite successful in his strategies.

Of course, it was intentional.

Mou Keyan’s high profile not only aimed to create a big internet celebrity persona, pushing more ambitious individuals to join Golden Stone.

On the other hand, she was also helping him.

Helping him construct openly and secretly scheme.

Helping him safely hunt.

Leaving aside the girl he truly wanted to conquer, having a Mou Keyan by his side indeed helped shield him from many doubts and risks.

At least during the time when Mou Keyan quickly rose to fame and aggressively made her presence felt, Zhong Ruixi had almost chosen to overlook some things.

For instance, the fact there was a girl from Jiang City Finance University who started from scratch with him and opened a well-known internet-famous coffee shop.

Or that she and her girlfriends, all quite pretty, had even met him before.

Zhou Sinin was no different.

She only remembered that afternoon at Nanhu Industrial Park, Mou Keyan tilting her chin up, smiling sweetly yet politely, asking to borrow Lu Jincheng for two minutes.

And she was powerless to refuse.

She could only go back and sulk.

Under such circumstances, she likewise selectively ignored some things.

Like, the inexplicably launched fireworks below her building on Guan Yongyi’s birthday night.

Or the peculiar, slightly frowned looks her roommates exchanged during late-night talks.

Mou Keyan was the perfect shield, a smooth scapegoat.

On many inexplicably vanished nights, Lu Jincheng could attribute it to work.

Therefore, the ones his close female friends would first suspect were definitely still Mou Keyan.

Jealous? Be jealous of her!

The more involved and under control Mr. Lu had Mou Keyan, the bigger the scapegoat she could be, the deeper his true conquest could be hidden, and the safer he would be.

"The senior and I are purely work-related, it’s very simple, you’re being superfluous by being jealous of her."

Lu Jincheng dropped his joking demeanor, turned his head to look seriously at Zhong Ruixi.

"How about I fire her from the company? Or have her, if there’s nothing else, come and watch us show affection more often?"

"Let her understand her place and maintain good distance, would that be okay?"

Mr. Lu spoke sensibly, yet he secretly chuckled inwardly.

The senior knew her place well, showing affection in front of her was fine.

But with her personality, she would probably openly congratulate them and be even more ruthless behind the scenes!
