Hearing this, Secretary Jin’s face suddenly broke into a smile, "Haha, I think you might have misunderstood , or has Su Yu been badmouthing behind my back?"
Wen Ruan was taken aback, "This... no... maybe I misunderstood, I’m very sorry."
She had a great relationship with Su Yu, and instinctively wanted to defend her a bit.
Secretary Jin slowly sat back down on the recliner, exuding elegance and relaxation, and her expression beca vivid.
There wasn’t a hint of hostility in her gaze, but rather a touch of appreciation and curiosity.
"No need to always use formal titles, just call ’you’. I wanted to et today just to chat with you, to formally get acquainted."
Wen Ruan exhaled long, "Alright, thank you, Chairman Jin."
"No need to be so formal, this eting might have been a bit rushed. I hope it didn’t inconvenience you."
"Not at all, it’s my pleasure."
Secretary Jin chuckled softly, crossed her long and well-proportioned legs lightly, looking at her with gentle eyes, "Your mind must be in a ss right now, relax for a while, and we’ll chat over food later."
After speaking, she casually pressed the call button by the bed.
Soon after, there was a knock at the door.
Two female technicians stepped in with their heads bowed, each carrying a tray with various items on it.
The technicians first bowed respectfully, then each went to one person’s side.
Wen Ruan followed Secretary Jin onto the massage bed.
She removed her bathrobe, revealing simple disposable underwear beneath.
Wen Ruan hesitated for a mont, glanced slightly at Secretary Jin not far away, her eyes trembling.
Damn, she’s a real bug! No wonder she’s dubbed the ’protagonist of a novel in real life’.
Though not as voluptuous as her, her figure is very well-proportioned.
Soft yet full of tension, with a perfectly full-bodied sense.
Especially her skin, flawless to a ridiculous extent.
It’s a hue sowhere between white porcelain and peach, neither overly pale nor dark, exuding a healthy translucency like rose petals under fresh snow.
So fine that you can barely see a single flaw, it must feel amazing to the touch.
It’s hard to imagine how a workaholic like her could maintain herself so well, it must be a real talent.
A warm towel was placed on her arm, and the technician Xiaoli dipped her fingertips into so essential oil, beginning to massage her.
"Ms. Wen, you can relax a bit more, it will be more effective that way," Xiaoli reminded her by her ear.
Wen Ruan humd in response, adjusting her breathing with the technician’s rhythm.
The scent of aromatic candles burning mixed with the fragrance of essential oils drifted through the air.
As the massage deepened, comfort spread from the outside in, gradually releasing the tension in her body.
At so point, Wen Ruan slowly closed her eyes, and her once chaotic thoughts began to clear.
She vaguely understood why Jin ixiao had co to see her.
It was to establish her presence.
Having now started mingling in Tang Song’s inner circle, she was likely to make strides in the business world.
As the ’main palace’ Jin ixiao wanted to establish her authority and position in advance.
She couldn’t help but find it amusing that soone like her, a ’goddess’, would have such a mindset.
Tang Song really is quite the extraordinary person!
...
The whole process lasted for over an hour.
The technicians stood respectfully aside, offering warm towels for the two to wipe with.
Secretary Jin sat up, arranging her bathrobe’s neckline, and looked at Wen Ruan with a gentle smile in her eyes, "How do you feel?"
"Very good, thank you," Wen Ruan quickly replied, her voice completely calm now.
"It’s already noon, let’s go have lunch next," Secretary Jin said, getting up and walking towards the door.
Wen Ruan followed closely with light steps.
Back in the changing room, she changed into her own clothes.
When she ca out again, she saw Jin ixiao dressed in a professional outfit.
A silk chiffon blouse paired with a pencil skirt and high heels, the standard outfit for Chairman Jin, looking exceptionally elegant and fashionable.
Secretary Jin’s gaze swept over Wen Ruan, and she gave her a smile as a gesture.
They took the elevator directly to the top floor of the club, where a carved wooden door slowly opened, revealing a luxuriously decorated yet understated private dining room.
After they sat down, a waiter entered and began to serve the dishes one by one.
Each dish was artistically presented, like paintings displayed before them.
Stead fish head with chopped chili, preserved at platter, spicy stir-fried pork...
"I heard you like Xiang cuisine?" Secretary Jin looked at her gently, "This chef was specially invited from Xiang Province for you, I hope you like it."
"Hiss—" Wen Ruan said, taken aback by the honor, "Thank you... I an, thank you for being so considerate."
"I told you, there’s no need for us to be so formal," Secretary Jin picked up her chopsticks gracefully and offered a piece of fish to Wen Ruan, "Try it."
Wen Ruan took the bowl, whispered "Thank you," then tasted a bite.
The fish was tender and smooth, with the spicy and sour taste of the chopped chili bursting on her tongue, extrely delicious.
Of course, what’s more important is that this was a dish served by Jin ixiao.
Not many in this world get to enjoy such treatnt.
"It’s absolutely delicious, the best I’ve ever had!"
Upon hearing this, Secretary Jin showed a satisfied smile and began chatting with Wen Ruan.
From the heritage and evolution of Xiang cuisine, to the developnt trends in the dia industry, and even the recent popular healthy eating trends in the fitness community.
