Even After My Death-Chapter 665 - 568: Future Lady Boss?

It was not clear whether it was because Jiang Ning was there, but Qi Xingzhou’s work efficiency was noticeably higher than usual today.

Before it was even time for a break, Qi Xingzhou had nearly finished his work.

After handling the last document, Qi Xingzhou closed his pen and looked up towards where Jiang Ning was sitting.

Jiang Ning sat on a soft and comfortable sofa, relaxed, holding a cup of hot tea in her hand, occasionally lowering her head to take a sip, looking very much like a bird gracefully savoring tea in the sunlight.

Qi Xingzhou glanced at the time and got up from his seat.

Sensing his movement, Jiang Ning turned her head to look at him, "What’s up? Finished with work?"

"Almost. Come on, I’ll take you to see the R&D room," Qi Xingzhou replied.

Jiang Ning was somewhat bored and immediately became interested upon hearing Qi Xingzhou’s words.

The robotic dog and other smart products she had just seen had been quite an eye-opener for Jiang Ning, and now, hearing that Qi Xingzhou was taking her to the R&D room, she immediately set down her teacup and stood up from the sofa: "Can I go too?"

The R&D room, just hearing the name, one could tell how important it was for Qi Xingzhou’s company.

"Of course you can." Qi Xingzhou answered without hesitation.

Hearing this, Jiang Ning did not feel shy and stepped forward to follow behind Qi Xingzhou.

The two left the office, with Qi Xingzhou leading the way in front, deliberately slowing his pace to walk alongside Jiang Ning.

The R&D room was almost in the opposite direction of Qi Xingzhou’s office, which meant that Qi Xingzhou and Jiang Ning almost passed through the entire office area of the floor.

The employees who were sitting at their desks working couldn’t help but almost lose control of their expressions when they saw this scene, everyone bowed their heads pretending to be busy, but their peripheral vision never moved away from the two. A previously quiet WeChat group suddenly became active:

Boss of Chuangfei, Don’t Wanna Work (67)

Office Xiao Li: Aaaaah, I knew there was a treat when I saw Jiang Ning appear at the company! It’s not in vain that I’ve been slacking off until now!

WorkBringsWealth: Exciting, the first time I saw Jiang Ning and the boss together offline.

DestinedWorkerMsRen: Hehe, it’s also the first time I’ve seen the boss so popular. Truly, he only looks like a real person when he stands next to Jiang Ning.

Tired Mr. Lv: ... Look at what you’re saying, wasn’t the boss a real person before?

DestinedWorkerMsRen: It’s not exactly that, after all, with the boss’s looks, even entertainment stars can’t compare.

Annual Salary of 1 Million: I didn’t believe it when they said online that the two of them were a couple, but now that I’ve actually seen it with my own eyes, I finally believe it! I must say, they look good together! From now on, I’m the top fan of Jiang Ning and boss couple!

Ms. Pin Mingbei: Too late, I’m the top fan, already level 10 in their super romance chat.

Mr. Xiang Yaofang: Look at the direction the boss is leading, it seems like it’s the R&D room. Who dares to say this isn’t love?

Receptionist Xiao Meimei: Woo! I’m envious! Jiang Ning actually appeared together with the boss? Ahhh, someone secretly take a photo for me, I want to see, I want to see, I want to see!

Ms. Pin Mingbei: Don’t cry, Little Mei, I’ll take it for you~ If you hadn’t sent the message that Jiang Ning was at the company in the group just in time, I would have probably missed seeing Jiang Ning because I was in the bathroom! [photo.jpg][photo.jpg][photo.jpg]

Annual Salary of 1 Million: !!!

Annual Salary of 1 Million: Ms. Guo, you’re awesome, daring to take this! And you took such good photos!

Receptionist Xiao Meimei: [love.jpg][love.jpg][love.jpg]

Receptionist Xiao Meimei: The second photo is so cool!

DestinedWorkerMsRen: Slurps, the boss’s physique, broad shoulders and long legs, just from the silhouette one can tell he’s definitely a handsome guy. Jiang Jiang too, standing next to the boss, really doesn’t pale in comparison! Last time I was next to the boss, I just ended up looking like an ugly toad! Damn it!

Ms. Hu: Hahaha, why bother humiliating yourself like that

...

A little stir occurred in the Gossiping WeChat group, but the two main subjects of the topic, Jiang Ning and Qi Xingzhou, were completely unaware of it.

Qi Building occupied a very extensive area, and although Changzhou Technology only occupied one floor within the building, the usable area was not to be underestimated.

At the time of decoration, Qi Xingzhou had divided the floor space into two halves, one for staff offices and the other for technology research and development.

The R&D department was the core department of the company, apart from technicians and executives, no other personnel were allowed to enter.

Chen Shi had originally been Qi Chen’s assistant; when Changzhou Technology registered, Qi Chen personally moved him over to serve as Qi Xingzhou’s Special Assistant.

In Changzhou Technology, Chen Shi was considered a veteran.

As Qi Xingzhou’s Special Assistant, no one knew better than Chen Shi how much of a stickler for rules Qi Xingzhou usually was.

Although he was the leader of Changzhou Technology, he never made exceptions for himself, adhering to the company order that all employees must follow.

Seeing how Qi Xingzhou not only took Jiang Ning around the research department but even brought her to the more secretive core experimental operations department, Chen Shi, standing not far away, touched his chin with his hand and thought to himself: This is the first time he’s seen the boss take advantage of his position to make exceptions!

Could it really be the future boss lady?

The moment Jiang Ning stepped into the operations room following Qi Xingzhou, she realized something. Unable to resist Qi Xingzhou’s enthusiasm, he even actively picked up several smart products from the rack in the operations room and placed them in front of Jiang Ning: "Seeing how interested you were in that robotic dog earlier, I thought you might like these as well."

The smart products placed in front of Jiang Ning varied in shapes: one looked much like the robotic dog but had the appearance of a small lamb, all in pet shapes.

The other few designs were much simpler, including diamond-shaped, cylindrical, and even a one-meter-tall robot!

Upon closer inspection, Jiang Ning realized it was indeed a robot.

She pointed at the small robot and asked, "This? A robot?"

"Mm-hm, this is a smart robot," Qi Xingzhou nodded, pulling out a button to turn on the little robot, while introducing to Jiang Ning, "These products share the same AI codebase as the smart robotic dog in the office; they just differ in appearance and size."

Jiang Ning asked, "Is this smart robot also designed to serve disabled people?"

"Yes. But this one is an upgraded model. Compared to the pet version, this robot model has more comprehensive functions and a wider range of uses," Qi Xingzhou also looked down at the robot. However, unlike the surprised look on Jiang Ning’s face, his expression was much calmer, even somewhat dissatisfied with the current research results: "Actually, our current research on AI is still at a superficial stage, and our development of robots is not thorough enough; otherwise, its fundamental functions would be much more comprehensive."

Hearing Qi Xingzhou’s words, Jiang Ning’s thoughts stirred, and she unexpectedly thought of something in the System Mall.

The System Mall offered a wide variety of goods, including various smart technology products. ƒrēenovelkiss.com

However, Jiang Ning hadn’t needed these items before, so she had merely glanced over them without exchanging any.

Now, hearing Qi Xingzhou’s words, Jiang Ning felt that perhaps the items in the System Mall could be of help to Qi Xingzhou?

After all, even as an outsider, she could tell from the Little Bear monitor and lie detector she had previously exchanged that the products from the System Mall were technically years ahead of the current societal level.

But this matter was no small issue; she had to think it over privately.

Jiang Ning silently suppressed her thoughts.

After showing Jiang Ning around his ’business empire’, Qi Xingzhou was visibly elated.

Even he, who had always been indifferent to work, felt some regret and remorse at this moment. If he had known there would be such a day, he would have worked hard and strived to expand his business territory; then he wouldn’t have ended up just quickly finishing the tour of his company.

The office building, located in the expensive bustling center of Capital City, had generated substantial income for Qi Corporation for three consecutive years, with monthly revenues not falling below an eight-digit figure. The Qi Family’s Mushroom, at this moment, suddenly felt a strong sense of inferiority.

In front of Jiang Ning, his emotions involuntarily appeared on the surface without any mask; Jiang Ning, seeing him sometimes happy and sometimes inexplicably emo, felt somewhat strange.

However, before she could even ask, her phone in her pocket rang first.

Jiang Ning took out her phone; the screen displayed three characters: Du Chuyun.

Seeing this name, Jiang Ning raised her eyebrows slightly; she seemed to know the reason for the call.

Indeed, right after the call connected, Du Chuyun’s cheerful and joyful voice immediately came through: "Jiang Ning! It’s me, Du Chuyun. You’re free next Monday, right? Hahaha, the location for the gathering has been set; the class leader just told me, and I called you first after hearing about it, the place is... oh, remember to bring that friend from the other day too! I told the class leader and everyone, and they all welcomed him warmly! This class reunion, you can bring family... and friends!"

Du Chuyun spoke loudly, and even though Jiang Ning hadn’t turned on the speakerphone, some of his voice still carried through.

Coincidentally, Qi Xingzhou had exceptionally good hearing.

After Jiang Ning hung up the call, he stood nearby, head slightly bowed, eyes clear and bright, intensely watching Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning: "...I’ll take you with me."
