Chapter 280 - 139: Yangcheng City Municipal Engineering Symposium

Three days after the storm...

Inside the Presidential Suite of the Ritz-Carlton Hotel...

"Mr. Gu, this is the Armani suit you urgently ordered, brought over from Hong Kong Island 15 minutes ago.

Due to the extremely limited time, the brand was unable to tailor it specifically for you and had to customize it based on your body measurements, so there may be some slight imperfections. The Armani Hong Kong official store has asked me to convey their sincerest apologies. The error in customization was not intentional. They hope for your understanding," said Zheng Jiayi, standing before Gu Heng with an exquisite wooden box. Explore stories on novelhall.Côm

The wooden box had a sliding mechanism, with a large Armani logo emblazoned on the lid.

At that moment, Zheng Jiayi had already pulled the box open halfway, revealing the pure black suit inside...

Gu Heng glanced at it and nodded slightly, without saying much.

Standing next to Zheng Jiayi, Xu Ying hurriedly said upon seeing that Gu Heng had no objections to the suit, "Boss, according to your schedule, you will attend a symposium on municipal engineering in Yangcheng City at ten o’clock this morning.

There is still one hour and twenty minutes until the symposium begins. I have already notified the hotel concierge to reserve three courtesy cars for you. Also, breakfast has been prepared; would you like to start eating now?"

Hearing Xu Ying’s words, Gu Heng smiled and teased her, "You’re more and more like a personal secretary now, Xu Ying. I don’t need to worry about anything; you just take care of everything for me."

Xu Ying’s face lit up with pleasure at these words: "Recently, I’ve been learning the workflows of a personal secretary and even signed up for an online course."

Gu Heng smiled and said, "Good, it looks like you plan to work for me for the long term. After this year, I’ll raise your annual salary to seven figures."

Hearing the promise from Gu Heng, Xu Ying couldn’t hide her joy more than if she were suppressing an AK, a yearly salary of a million RMB put her nearly at the ceiling of the domestic workforce. She never imagined that she might reach such heights one day.@@@@

Zheng Jiayi watched Xu Ying’s smiling face with a heart full of mixed feelings...

She had studied for four years at the British Butler Institute and paid for her own training after returning to China. It took her several years to be promoted to a butler for the Presidential Suite at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel, but even so, her annual income had just barely reached the million mark...

In 2024, the Yangcheng municipal department made frequent large moves, with an annual investment plan reaching 400 billion RMB. This symposium was Yangcheng municipal government’s first announcement on city infrastructure construction, drawing the close attention of nearly all news media.

This also brought a buzz to the Dongguang TV Station building, normally only frequented by internal staff...

Numerous media reporters flocked to the scene...

With 20 minutes to go until the official start of the symposium, these reporters could only conduct their interviews and filming from outside...

A reporter from Sohu News was holding a microphone, facing the camera: "This is Zhang Aihua from Sohu News.

There are still 20 minutes until the beginning of the Yangcheng City Municipal Engineering Symposium. It is reported that this symposium will discuss investment in 17 municipal projects, totaling an amount of 76 billion RMB.

This is Yangcheng municipal government’s largest investment symposium since 2019.

As you can see, the outside of Dongguang TV Station is already filled with well-known entrepreneurs from within and outside the province. I will now randomly interview one of the spectators to get their thoughts on this investment symposium."

It wasn’t just Sohu News; NetEase, Tencent, Sina, Baidu, and other well-known online media were all gathered here...

Suddenly...

A Maybach GLS, a Rolls-Royce Ghost, and two Bentleys drove up from afar... The pure black convoy appeared exceptionally solemn, attracting the attention and sideways glances of surrounding guests as they entered and exited.

When the vehicles came to a halt.

Xu Ying, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, got out of the Maybach and quickly walked to the back door, opening it and holding her hand up as a shield over the roof of the car.

Gu Heng stepped out of the car...

Gu Heng, with his tall frame, had his usually casual fringe now fixed with hair gel, slicked back. In comparison to regular suits, this custom-made Armani design was clearly more form-fitting, not only exuding an air of significance but also retaining Gu Heng’s youthful vigor.
