Chapter 158 - 158 149 Special Habit_2
?Chapter 158: Chapter 149 Special Habit?_2 Chapter 158: Chapter 149 Special Habit?_2 His gaze shifted to Jing, who was adjusting the leaves of a green plant. He smiled and said, “Jing, I’ve recently learned quite a bit about palmistry. Can I take a look at your palm lines?”
Jing hesitated for a moment, then her face broke into a sweet smile. “Sure!”
Now that’s a lucky break! I was just trying to think of an excuse to start a conversation!
She quickly came around the desk, leaned her backside against it, and stretched her hands out to him.
Tang Song took her delicate, beautiful hands into his, his fingertips gently tracing along the lines of her palm, lightly touching the Bvlgari ring on her index finger.
Noticing that Jing showed no resistance, he then moved to stroke the back of her hand, the silky smooth touch of her skin making him inadvertently apply a bit more pressure.
Soon, a light red mark appeared on the pristine white skin.
Jing bit her lower lip, squeezed her legs together tightly, trying not to make a sound.
Looking at Tang Song’s face and feeling the zero-distance contact of their skin, her heart raced unexpectedly, feeling both thrilled and excited.
Tang Song leaned forward, drawing closer to breathe in, and curiously asked, “Jing, you smell really good. What perfume do you usually wear?”
He had been curious about this for a long time.
He had always liked her scent when they happened to meet in the elevator before.
Jing’s cheeks turned a light shade of red, feeling somewhat shy.
She stealthily touched his fingers and smiled, “I’m currently wearing Hermes’ Un Jardin sur le Nil, a great choice for spring and summer.”
Tang Song pursed his lips and leaned further forward, inhaling deeply near her neck, and earnestly said, “It has a fresh feeling of sunlight mingled with dew, I really like it.”
Jing quivered, her eyes fluttering.
For some reason, she felt that Tang Song was different today, more proactive than before.
And his hands were so beautiful, his speech engaging and intriguing!
…
After spending 20 minutes analyzing palm lines in the office,
they finally walked out.
Jing’s cheeks were flushed, and she seemed a bit unsteady on her feet, feeling weak in the legs.
After parting, Tang Song directly knocked on the door of the President’s office.
He had an in-depth conversation with Feng Zhongping for over half an hour.
They discussed everything from the company’s image, to the restructuring of the technical support department, and then to the company’s technical strategy and team planning.
Feng Zhongping’s view of him gradually shifted.
Not only because of the steadiness and confidence Tang Song showed, but also his excellent communication ability and technical awareness.
He was extremely energetic, spoke clearly and distinctly, was very persuasive, and also maintained a suitable sense of humor and sensitivity.
This was a very attractive charm, leaving a deep impression on him.
Feng internally agreed with what Chairman Fan had said, he was indeed more suited for the CTO position, a talent worth focusing on for training!
When Tang Song proposed to leave,
Feng Zhongping stood up and shook his hand, patting him firmly on the shoulder with his other hand, encouragingly saying, “Tang Song! I look forward to the changes you will bring to the technical support department! The company is in a critical period of transformation. In the future, there will be stock incentives for outstanding employees. Keep it up!”
“Keep it up!” Tang Song gripped Feng’s hand firmly, his gaze full of admiration.
As the behind-the-scenes boss of Smile Holding and one of the owners of Jinxiu Commerce, he was very excited about Feng’s performance.
…
At 11 o’clock in the morning.
The full meeting of the technical support department ended.
The attendees left the large meeting room with varied expressions.
Hu Mingli’s face was full of excitement and her fingers occasionally clenched at her side.
Back at her station,
Colleagues from the front-end team congratulated her with smiles.
“Congratulations, Supervisor Hu!”
“Mingli, don’t forget us when you and Brother Guo make it big!”
…
Zhao Yue bit her lip hard, reluctantly congratulated her even though she was unwilling.
The promotion she had eagerly hoped for was gone!
Once, she was the closest to Tang Song in the department.
If she had been more proactive, maybe she would be his girlfriend by now.
Thinking of that multimillion-dollar Mercedes-Benz S-Class, along with Tang Song’s current status and appearance,
regret twisted around her like a bone-deep poison.
Hu Mingli, her face flushed with excitement, joked with everyone for a while before starting to fill out the promotion application form.
With Tang Song’s arrival, the reformation of the technical support department was back on track.
The development engineers at the company had been reclassified with detailed levels, and she was now a senior front-end developer.
The original front-end team was split into “H5” and “Client” groups.
She was appointed as the head of the H5 development group.
The most obvious benefit was that her salary had increased by 50%.
As she was about to turn 28, she had achieved accomplishments she never dared dream of.
Promoted to a management position! Monthly salary over ten thousand!
Life gives you three turning points: birth, marriage, and following the right person.
She was now living proof of that.
Then looking at the distraught Zhao Yue next to her, she felt incredibly lucky about her past decisions at this moment.
Plus, having Wen Ruan as a good bestie, maybe she could advance even further in the future?
She took a photo of the completed application form and shared the good news in the besties’ group chat.
She got up and headed towards the Human Resources department.
“Knock, knock, knock—” she pushed open the large office door.
She handed the application form to HRD, chatted for a bit inside, and after confirming everything was correct,
Mingli walked out of the office with her emotions surging, clutching her hands in front of her.
Her phone in her pocket was buzzing non-stop.
In the besties group chat, Zhang Ziqi, out of jealousy, sent dozens of emojis.
Mingli replied with a beaming smile, “Ladies! I’m treating tonight, food, skincare, SPA all in one!”
While chatting with Zhang Ziqi, Mingli headed towards the lounge area.
Right now, she simply wasn’t in the mood to work, eager to share the news with her family and friends.
She turned a corner, reached the lounge area, and looked up to see two familiar figures.
Tang Song was sitting in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows at the bar, chatting with Tian Jing.
Their proximity to each other appeared somewhat intimate.
Recognizing the water cup in Tang Song’s hand, Mingli’s gaze froze.
If she remembered correctly, that seemed to be Tian Jing’s cup.
A Saint Laurent porcelain mug, very beautiful.
But how…
Looking at Tang Song drinking water and Tian Jing smiling like a flower, Mingli’s heart skipped a beat, and a red warning box popped up in her vision.
Wen Ruan, danger! Danger! Danger!
If Zhao Yue’s competitiveness is a 1, then Tian Jing is at least a 10.
Pretty and sweet, slim and sexy, from a wealthy family, and with a lovable personality.
The key is she’s only 22 this year!
Compared to her, her own bestie seemed slightly lacking.
Concerned about her bestie’s major life events, as well as her own future, Mingli took a deep breath and snapped a photo to send to the group chat.
She quickly messaged, “@Zhuangzhuang, stop being busy with work, there’s trouble! Someone is eyeing your boyfriend!”
“Buzz buzz buzz—”
[Zhang Ziqi: “What a pretty girl!”]
[Wen Ruan: “Who is this?”]
Mingli typed quickly, “She’s our company’s salary supervisor, Tian Jing. A standard rich and beautiful girl, living in a large flat in YJHT, rumored to be a relative of some big leader in the company. You need to take this seriously! I feel like she’s up to no good!”
She also suddenly realized that as Tang Song becomes more successful, obviously many high-quality women would appear around him.
Although Wen Ruan is impressive, that couldn’t guarantee Tang Song wouldn’t be tempted away.
Back at her workstation, she waited but didn’t see a reply from Wen Ruan, leaving Mingli anxious.
[Mingli: “@Zhuangzhuang, don’t you have any thoughts? This is your boyfriend we are talking about!”]
[Zhang Ziqi: “@Zhuangzhuang, with your big boobs and butt, ramp it up a bit, drain Tang Song dry so he doesn’t even have the energy to stray.”]
“Buzz buzz buzz—”
[Wen Ruan: “Let nature take its course. If Tang Song really wants to get together with her, I can’t stop it, and plus, this girl is indeed young and pretty.”]
[Zhang Ziqi: “Wow, so magnanimous about your own man? Don’t tell me you’ve started liking the rich beauty too? Wanting to swing both ways? Typical you!”]
[Wen Ruan: Smirking.jpg]
[Zhang Ziqi: “I looked carefully, this Tian Jing is really enchanting, maybe… call me too when it’s happening?”]
Mingli rubbed her forehead, at a loss for words for a moment, feeling that Wen Ruan was acting strangely.
With her personality, shouldn’t she be fired up right now, thinking about how to cling to Tang Song and flirt?
Couldn’t she have awakened some unique preference?
