After a twelve-hour flight, the crew was not exhausted, but the three of them were extremely tired.
Especially Zhuang Manting, who still has a special status. After lunch, she was helped by the stewardess to rest.
This aircraft is quite large and has a specially designed movable sofa that can be pulled out to become a double bed.
Zhuang Manting usually rests up there when she is on business trips.
After adjusting the seat, Chen Dongcheng gradually became sleepy.
"Don't sleep, talk to me."
Xue Ningzhi pushed him gently. There were too few things that could be done at high altitudes.
If Chen Dongcheng fell asleep again, she would die of suffocation.
"Okay, you tell me and I listen."
Chen Dongcheng had no choice but to ask the stewardess to fetch two cups and opened a bottle of Perrier-Jouët.
The rich fragrance overflows from the mouth of the bottle and slowly sinks in along the ice cubes.
"Give."
Chen Dongcheng handed Xue Ningzhi a glass and took a sip himself. The slightly cold wine made him sober.
"Just chat, I heard from Manting that your company is recruiting people?"
Xue Ningzhi took a sip, her eyes flickered, and she pretended to speak casually.
"Well, Manting is preparing for pregnancy at home, so there must be a suitable person to help her. I'm considering it."
Chen Dongcheng didn't hide it from Xue Ningzhi. They had known each other for so long, so this was not a confidential matter.
"Already have an alternative?"
Xue Ningzhi's heart tightened and she asked quickly.
"There are a few, but none of them are very satisfied."
Chen Dongcheng was a little confused as to why Xue Ningzhi was so interested, but he didn't think much about it and shook his head in distress.
"Then what do you think of me?"
Xue Ningzhi raised her head slightly, straightened her body, took a deep breath, and looked at Chen Dongcheng.
"you?"
Chen Dongcheng thought he heard wrongly: "Aren't you staying in Pengcheng all the time?"
"People will always change. I have stayed in Pengcheng for so long, and it's time for me to change places."
Although she said this, Xue Ningzhi knew it in her heart.
If she didn't want to be closer to this man, why would she go to a strange city?
"Uh... you let me think about it."
Chen Dongcheng was a little surprised, but after thinking about it carefully, Xue Ningzhi was really a suitable candidate.
First of all, Xue Ningzhi is very capable and has outstanding negotiation skills.
Secondly, Xue Ningzhi has known me for two years. She knows everything about her and is very trustworthy.
Sometimes, when superiors hire people, ability is more important and loyalty is more important.
Especially for a company like Pinduoduo, although it is not called nepotism, if Xue Ningzhi has this intention, she is really a good candidate.
"Sister Xue, although you have no problem with your ability, after taking over, you will be under a lot of pressure. Are you sure you want to come to my place?"
Chen Dongcheng also straightened his seat and looked at Xue Ningzhi seriously.
"I'm sure, my company has been handed over to professional managers. I also heard from Manting that you were worried about candidates, so I recommended myself. If you think I am okay, I want to give it a try."
Xue Ningzhi finished speaking calmly and generously, and then waited for Chen Dongcheng's answer.
The two people's eyes met, and Chen Dongcheng was defeated first. This woman's eyes were too aggressive.
"Ahem, that's it. When I get back from this trip, I will take Sister Xue to work. You can do it with confidence and I will support you behind you."
Chen Dongcheng smiled and stretched out his hand, but suddenly realized that his words were a bit strange.
"Thank you, Mr. Chen, for your trust. I will definitely work hard to repay Mr. Chen."
Xue Ningzhi also smiled and stretched out her hand, making a joke.
With her wealth, she no longer needs to worry about money.
If it weren't for some small thoughts, she wouldn't be too lazy to torment herself.
"Sister Xue, I toast you this cup."
Chen Dongcheng was also a lot more relaxed. If Xue Ningzhi hadn't recommended herself, Chen Dongcheng would have thought he would be the top one.
Although there is nothing wrong with his leadership, it is best not to change the CEO of a company easily.
Xue Ningzhi is really a good candidate.
She is not tied down by trivial family matters, has outstanding abilities, and is extremely beautiful. She is simply the perfect candidate.
When Zhuang Manting woke up and heard that Xue Ningzhi would replace her, her eyes suddenly changed, making Xue Ningzhi feel guilty.
"Sister Ningzhi, from now on the company will have to worry more about you. If you don't understand anything, you can contact Dongcheng at any time."
Zhuang Manting was smiling. She was also a woman and she was so familiar with Xue Ningzhi. How could she not understand Xue Ningzhi's thoughts?
Fortunately, Xue Ningzhi thought she was hiding it well, but in fact, Zhuang Manting had already seen through it.
"From now on, Manting, you will be the boss lady, remember to give me a salary increase!"
Xue Ningzhi smoothed her hair and changed the topic.
"A salary increase is nothing, it would be great to have the opportunity to be the boss's wife."
Zhuang Manting deliberately teased Xue Ningzhi.
Xue Ningzhi's face suddenly turned red and she glanced at Chen Dongcheng in panic.
The two of them were whispering, and of course Chen Dongcheng didn't hear them.
At this moment, he was looking out the porthole happily.
Ten hours later.
"Boss, the plane is about to land. Please get ready with Mr. Zhuang and Mr. Xue."
The flight attendant came over to remind the three of them to fasten their seat belts.
Soon, the plane landed smoothly at Heathrow Airport.
The crew was also given a few days off, and Butler Brown thoughtfully prepared the fleet to welcome everyone.
It was Xue Ningzhi's first time going abroad, and her mature and steady temperament could not help but be a little shaken.
Being unfamiliar with the place, she habitually leaned on Chen Dongcheng's right hand.
Both Chen Dongcheng and Chen Dongcheng were surrounded by top-notch beauties. Unfortunately, everyone was walking through the VIP channel and didn't bump into anyone.
As the birthplace of Rolls-Royce, the price of Rolls-Royce in London is also much cheaper than in China. Almost every wealthy person in London owns one.
Arriving at the villa in St. John's Wood, Butler Brown had already divided a group of servants into two teams and waited for a long time.
"This is simply..."
Xue Ningzhi didn't know what to say. The scene in front of her was so shocking, just like in those British dramas.
Butlers in tuxedos and servants in neat uniforms.
If she hadn't determined the date correctly, Xue Ningzhi would have felt as if she had returned to the last century.
"Mr. Chen, dinner is ready. Please come with me and the two ladies."
Brown bowed slightly, and his demeanor was of an indescribable standard. After seeing it, people couldn't help but praise him.
"You are a good housekeeper. How much is your annual salary?"
Xue Ningzhi is also considered to have seen the world, and intuitively thinks that this housekeeper must be an elite-level figure.
"It's not expensive, the annual salary is only 200,000 pounds."
For Chen Dongcheng, supporting a dozen maids and male servants plus a housekeeper is nothing.
But for Xue Ningzhi, luxury is simply endless.
The annual salary expenditure for these maids and housekeepers alone is close to one million pounds.
If you are not worth more than one billion pounds, you cannot afford such a luxurious life.
But walking into the villa, Xue Ningzhi suddenly felt that it was quite cost-effective to support this group of people with an annual salary of one million.
The tablecloth on the dining table seemed to have been ironed and was very neat.
The tableware is so polished that it reflects light, and the cups are placed at a distance that can satisfy any obsessive-compulsive disorder patient. It seems that they were measured with a tape measure.
In short, everything about the villa gave Xue Ningzhi the feeling that it was great to have money!
