Su Bai sat in the seat next to the chief interviewer, patiently listening to a few more candidates' presentations.
It had to be said that the reputation and benefits of Baiye Holdings in Jiangcheng had indeed attracted countless top-tier talents. Watching these elites who graduated from top domestic universities and prestigious overseas schools acting so respectfully in front of his executives, doing their utmost to showcase their talents, Su Bai could not help but feel a strong sense of control welling up in his heart.
However, after watching for about half an hour, Su Bai began to find it rather dull.
He inherently disliked dealing with these tedious corporate affairs; professional matters should be left to the professionals. He hadn't spent a fortune poaching executives like Wang Qiang just to tire himself out.
"Alright, you guys continue the interviews. Control the hiring standards yourselves. As long as they have real talent and practical knowledge, don't be stingy with the salary and benefits." Su Bai casually tossed the few resumes in his hand onto the table and stood up.
"Yes! Please rest assured, President Su, we will strictly gatekeep for the company!" Seeing this, Wang Qiang and the other executives quickly stood up as well, watching Su Bai leave with extremely respectful expressions.
The top elites waiting for their interviews almost had their eyes pop out of their heads when they saw that even a big shot like Wang Qiang was so reverent toward this excessively young man. Whispers buzzed through the corridor.
Ignoring the crowd's shock, Su Bai put his hands in his pockets and left the interview center with a leisurely pace, taking his exclusive elevator straight to his office.
The office spanned a full two hundred square meters, featuring panoramic floor-to-ceiling windows that overlooked the bustling scenery of the entire Jiangcheng CBD. The interior decoration was incredibly luxurious, equipped not only with a top-tier reception area and workspace but also a private lounge and a wet bar.
Su Bai walked over and sat down in the spacious leather executive chair, casually propping his legs up on the expensive mahogany desk. He stretched comfortably, ready to begin today's slacking time.
He had just poured himself a glass of chilled Perrier from the bar and taken a couple of sips when there was a soft knock on the heavy solid wood door of the office.
"Come in," Su Bai said lightly, setting down his glass.
The door was pushed open, and accompanied by the soft, muffled sound of high heels stepping on the wool carpet, a tall and graceful figure walked in.
The newcomer was none other than Xu Xinran.
Today, Xu Xinran was dressed exceptionally elegantly, exuding femininity. She wore a well-tailored white silk shirt on her upper body, with the top two buttons undone, faintly revealing a deep glimpse of snow-white skin and delicate collarbones. Her lower half was clad in a tight black pencil skirt that perfectly outlined her flawless waist-to-hip ratio.
Seeing Su Bai leisurely slacking off in his executive chair, a touch of grievance and coquettishness immediately appeared on Xu Xinran's bright and moving face.
She reached back and locked the office door, then walked over to the desk with a swaying, alluring gait in her stiletto heels. Resting her hands on the desktop, she leaned forward slightly.
"Boss Su, you really are a busy man," Xu Xinran parted her red lips, her voice carrying an undisguised hint of jealousy and complaint. "If I hadn't heard that you dropped in on the recruitment site today, a poor worker like me wouldn't know when I'd ever get to see you again."
Looking at the breathtakingly beautiful face so close at hand, and the generous view of her cleavage revealed by her leaning posture, Su Bai couldn't help but curl his lips into a wicked smile.
"What, did you miss me?" Su Bai reached out and pinched her fair chin.
"How could I not?" Xu Xinran took the opportunity to press her cheek against Su Bai's broad palm, rubbing it gently like a docile Persian cat. "You're usually surrounded by so many female confidantes—senior Jialu, little sister Yu Sheng, and that vixen Xia Lin. How could you ever remember a poor reporter like me running errands for you out here?"
"I finally managed to catch you today, specifically to report on my work to you."
Amused by her jealous demeanor, Su Bai exerted a little force with his wrist, grabbing her arm and pulling her directly into his embrace.
"Ah!"
Xu Xinran let out a cry of surprise and fell right onto Su Bai's sturdy lap.
"Since you're here to report on work, then report properly." Su Bai naturally wrapped his hands around her slender waist, resting his chin on her shoulder and inhaling the enchanting perfume unique to a mature woman. "Let me hear what great deeds our grand reporter Xu has accomplished lately."
At the mention of work, Xu Xinran reined in a bit of her coquettishness, her eyes turning serious.
Leaning against Su Bai's chest, she traced circles on it with her slender fingers and said softly, "Baiye Holdings has been in the limelight too much recently. Whether it's the research breakthroughs of Shengxi Technology or the strong rise of First-Gen Maternity and Baby, we've taken a slice of many competitors' pies."
"The business world is like a battlefield. Those competitors don't dare clash with you head-on, but they haven't held back on their little tricks behind the scenes. Just last week, several internet troll companies tried to spread smear campaigns about our products online, wanting to tarnish the company's reputation."
"Oh?" Su Bai raised an eyebrow. "And how did you handle it?"
Xu Xinran lifted her delicate chin, a flash of shrewdness and pride in her eyes. "With me here, how could I let them make waves? I have a background in media. When it comes to manipulating public opinion, they're just amateurs."
"I mobilized all my connections in the media circle. Not only did I have those smear articles completely blocked and shadow-banned in the first instance, but I also reverse-tracked the masterminds who hired the trolls."
"Following that, I contacted several authoritative state media outlets and planned a few in-depth reports about Baiye Holdings actively taking on social responsibility and driving industry innovation. Now, not only has the online narrative not been led astray, but everyone is praising our company as a conscientious enterprise. Our brand image is even better than before."
Saying this, Xu Xinran's eyes were full of pride, looking like a little girl who had scored full marks on a test and was waiting for her parents' praise.
In charge of the public relations aspect of Baiye Holdings, she had indeed demonstrated extremely outstanding professional capability. In this era of information explosion, controlling public opinion was equivalent to controlling the lifeblood of an enterprise's survival. Relying on her keen sense and vast network of contacts, Xu Xinran had forged Baiye Holdings' external image into an ironclad fortress, leaving no opportunity for anyone to exploit.
"Beautifully done."
After hearing her report, a hint of admiration flashed in Su Bai's eyes.
He knew Xu Xinran had a talent in this area, but he hadn't expected her to do it so perfectly. This not only saved him a lot of trouble but also paved the way for the company's subsequent development.
"But of course. Just look at whose woman I am," Xu Xinran laughed coquettishly with pride.
Su Bai did not hold back his praise. His large hand gently caressed her slender waist. "You've worked hard, Xinran. Having you keep an eye on the public relations side of things has truly saved me a lot of headaches. With your level of competence, you'd be more than qualified to be the PR director for a Fortune 500 company."
Hearing Su Bai's compliments, the smile on Xu Xinran's face deepened.
She turned around slightly, her watery, alluring eyes locking onto him. Deep within her gaze burned an undisguised, scorching desire.
"Empty words of praise aren't enough." Xu Xinran wrapped her arms tightly around Su Bai's neck. Her warm, fragrant breath brushed against his cheek. "I've been running around exhausting myself for the sake of the company's reputation. Boss Su, shouldn't you give me a more substantial reward?"
"What kind of reward do you want?" Looking at her seductive expression, the fire within Su Bai had been successfully ignited.
"What do you think?"
Xu Xinran didn't answer directly. Instead, she lowered her head...
Inside the spacious and luxurious chairman's office, the temperature instantly soared.
Xu Xinran's breathing grew heavy.
The sensation traveling through Su Bai's fingertips made him pause for a moment.
Today, underneath her tight pencil skirt, Xu Xinran was actually wearing a pair of sheer, flesh-colored pantyhose. The material of the stockings was exceptionally fine, clinging tightly to her long, slender legs like a second skin, offering an incredibly smooth and silky touch.
But what gave Su Bai an even greater pleasant surprise was the scenery hidden beneath the nylon.
It was a thong...

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!

lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
