Capítulo 1172: Chapter 452: Our Paths About to Cross_2 “Mm.” Lin Muxue casually pointed at the large sign “Airport Reception.” Seeing her distant demeanor, Gu Cheng’s smile froze slightly, feeling extremely uneasy inside. Back in the company, he was the male colleague who was closest to her, and their relationship had always been good. In conversations, she always called him “Brother Gu, Brother Gu.” Who would have thought that upon meeting again, she would behave so indifferently. Thinking of Tang Song’s provocation in front of him back then, Gu Cheng furrowed his brows and refrained from making any further attempts. Lin Muxue didn’t care about his feelings and turned to Guo Wenlei, chatting about recent changes in the Administrative Department. The job at Rongxin Venture Capital was her first after graduating from college, and she remembered it vividly. She also learned that the person Guo Wenlei and Gu Cheng were here to pick up had quite a background. This person was the head of risk control at Pingan Bank’s Corporate Finance Department, accompanied by the company’s vice president in charge of investment business, Xiong Yanfeng. This update is available on novᴇlfire.net Rongxin Venture Capital had been developing very well recently, with plans, supported by the local government, to jointly develop low-risk credit products for small and micro enterprises with Pingan Bank. During the conversation, Guo Wenlei repeatedly clicked her tongue in admiration, her gaze toward Lin Muxue growing increasingly complex. She had always appreciated Lin Muxue as a subordinate, with good image and temperament, and excellent communication and adaptability. However, at this meeting, the other party’s speech, demeanor, and vitality seemed like she had become a different person. After a moment, airport staff approached to inform them that the flight was about to land. Lin Muxue ended the conversation and held the airport reception sign facing the exit. After waiting for a few more minutes, passengers began to emerge from the passage one after another. Lin Muxue’s eyes flickered, seeing Vice President Xiong Yanfeng, accompanied by a middle-aged man in a business suit. Xiong Yanfeng was essentially the second in command at Rongxin Venture Capital, and in terms of authority in the company, only the Chairman, President Li Xinguo, surpassed him. Although Lin Muxue had worked at the company for over a year as a regular receptionist, seeing President Xiong still made her feel a bit of awe. However, this feeling was fleeting. Guo Wenlei and Gu Cheng immediately went forward: “President Xiong.” “President Xiong.” “Hello, President Zhao. Welcome to Yan City. I am Guo Wenlei from Rongxin Venture Capital.” “Hello, President Zhao. I’m Gu Cheng from Rongxin Venture Capital.” “Hello, I am Zhao Yuan.” The group exchanged a few pleasantries while standing together. Xiong Yanfeng noticed Lin Muxue standing aside and exclaimed, “Wenlei, isn’t this Lin from your department? I remember she resigned.” As a receptionist in administration, Lin Muxue was actually quite well-known in the company. After all, she was someone you could see every day upon arriving at work. Even the senior executives had a strong impression of this attractive and charming receptionist. Guo Wenlei quickly explained, “Yes, we just happened to run into her here.” Lin Muxue met Xiong Yanfeng’s eyes with a confident and bright gaze, calmly saying, “Hello, President Xiong.” “Hello, Lin.” Xiong Yanfeng smiled nonchalantly. Lin Muxue raised her eyebrows slightly. Oh, Xiong, daring to still call me Lin? I’ll show you one day! So you understand the position of Rongliu Capital’s Chief Assistant—Emperor Muxue! Just then, Zhao Yuan suddenly said, “Oh?! Are you here to pick up Mr. Zheng?” Xiong Yanfeng only then noticed the airport reception sign in her hand, exclaiming, “Chairman Zheng?” They were also flying in from Yang City, sharing the business class cabin with Zheng Qiudong. Although Xiong Yanfeng didn’t know him personally, Zhao Yuan, a mid-to-senior-level manager at Pingan Bank, did, having exchanged brief greetings on the plane. Who would have thought that Lin Muxue was here to pick up Zheng Qiudong. Guo Wenlei and Gu Cheng looked at the airport reception sign in her hand, their expressions momentarily stunned. Gu Cheng blurted out, “Zheng Qiudong of DJRH?” “Yes,” Lin Muxue smiled modestly, but her toes in the pointy high heels couldn’t help but twitch. This is the advantage of having a reputation. Just the mention of a name could change these people’s attitudes entirely. Then, Lin Muxue’s gaze suddenly brightened, raising the airport reception sign a bit higher. At the corner of the VIP passage, Zheng Qiudong appeared there. Wearing a perfectly tailored dark navy custom suit, with straight shoulders and a perfectly fitted waist, accentuating his naturally slender and tall figure. His chiseled face exuded a cold and spirited aura. His hair was meticulously cut, with a few strands of silver visible at the temples, adding to his mature and steady charm rather than making him look old. Compared to the online information about him, the real Zheng Qiudong was much more outstanding, with a strong presence and an aura of commanding the entire situation. Yet, she couldn’t help but feel that he seemed somewhat familiar. The VIP passage naturally had few people. The two easily saw each other. Lin Muxue took a deep breath and smiled as she approached, “Chairman Zheng, good afternoon, I’m Lin Muxue. Welcome to Yan City.” Zheng Qiudong glanced around her surroundings, a faint smile appearing on his cold face, “Pleasure to meet you, President Lin. It’s an honor you came in person to pick me up.” With that single “President Lin” spoken. Xiong Yanfeng, Guo Wenlei, and the others were all astonished, their gazes toward Lin Muxue completely transformed. This was Zheng Qiudong! And to think he was so courteous to Lin Muxue? Lin Muxue felt a chill of goosebumps rise, experiencing a thrill beyond imagination. Her affinity for Zheng Qiudong skyrocketed.
