Office? No, the top floor!

Leaving the house, Zhuang Wanshu glanced at the driver and said, "Stop the car up ahead, you can go back by yourself. I'll take my brother over."

The driver was taken aback, then nodded. "Understood, Eldest Miss. Be careful on the road."

He then glanced at Zhuang Xin, giving him a look that said, good luck.

Zhuang Xin looked curiously at his older sister and the driver who was leaving on his own. After his sister got into the car, the seemingly gentle and virtuous Eldest Sister's eyes changed. She stretched out a pair of fair, jade-like hands, touched the steering wheel, and said to Zhuang Xin, "Come to the front passenger seat and buckle up."

"Oh, oh, oh..."

Zhuang Xin scratched his head and did as he was told.

As his sister stepped on the accelerator, the car roared like a beast, the engine growling, the gears spinning rapidly... The sports car turned into a shadow and shot off!

Zhuang Xin stared dumbfounded as the speed continuously increased, quickly reaching its limit.

Even he gasped at the scenery rapidly receding behind them.

This Eldest Sister, who appeared so gentle and virtuous, actually had such a wild side.

They didn't slow down until they reached the city center, where there were a sparse number of vehicles.

"Didn't scare you, did I?" Zhuang Wanshu flashed a charming smile and continued, "It's been a while since I drove. I've been quite busy lately, so I thought I'd take you out and get some practice."

"Big Sister, your... driving skills, did you learn them yourself?"

"Mhm, I used to participate in racing competitions and won second place. After that, I raced a few more times, but I lost every time. So, I had no choice but to come back and inherit the family business."

"Cough, cough!"

If other racers heard this, they'd probably cough up blood in anger.

"We're almost there. Zhu Zuo's company is up ahead. In front of your 'big brother,' you should be careful. I'm not sure how deep your relationship with General Manager Zhu is. I heard from Uncle and the others that Zhu Zuo is not as simple as he appears!"

"I understand." On the surface, Zhuang Xin agreed, but he wasn't worried. Having taken over so much background information, Zhuang Xin understood the reliability of the system.

Ten minutes later, the car drove into Guanglong Real Estate Co., Ltd. and parked in the lot.

Zhuang Wanshu took out her phone and called Zhu Zuo. "We've arrived."

Sitting in his office, Zhu Zuo looked at Zhuang Wanshu's number and smiled strangely. "Okay, you two can come up. I've arranged for someone to take you directly to the office."

"Mm, okay. I brought Zhuang Xin with me too."

"Brother Zhuang? Oh, oh, then you can come directly to the top floor."

Zhu Zuo's voice softened considerably before he hung up.

Zhuang Wanshu was stunned. The top floor was Zhu Zuo's private area. Even when receiving VIP guests, she had never heard of anyone being allowed on the top floor. Only Zhu Zuo's family, old friends of many years, and his wife and children could go there.

This time, they were being invited to the top floor?

"Alright, General Manager Zhu has made arrangements. Stick close to me and don't embarrass the Zhuang family." Zhuang Wanshu straightened her clothes, picked up her briefcase, got out of the car, and walked into the Guanglong Real Estate building.

Upon entering, a beautiful secretary respectfully greeted them. "Miss Zhuang, Young Master Zhuang, please come in!"

However, her gaze lingered more on Zhuang Xin.

She had received a call from General Manager Zhu upstairs just now and knew Zhuang Xin was coming, making her very curious. Who was this 'little brother' that General Manager Zhu had personally arranged for someone to handle last time?

As far as she knew, General Manager Zhu had never cared so much about anyone.

Even she, his lover, was treated with indifference, summoned and dismissed at his whim.

"Why are you looking at me?" Zhuang Xin asked uncomfortably, being stared at by a beautiful woman.

"Hehe, it's nothing. Young Master Zhuang is truly a talented man. With General Manager Zhu's help, you'll surely soar. Oh no, you're already in the sky. And you have the Zhuang family behind you."

Saying this, she led them to a private elevator.

This elevator only had buttons for the first floor and the top floor.

"By the way, Secretary Lin, did General Manager Zhu say anything about my brother not paying the contract balance yet?" Zhuang Wanshu had visited Guanglong Real Estate a few times and knew Zhu Zuo's temper.

Under normal circumstances, if there was an issue with an unpaid contract balance, this company would likely have all dealings cut off the very next day.

"No! General Manager Zhu said it's fine even if Young Master Zhuang doesn't pay. Consider it a gift from General Manager Zhu."

"A gift? A gift worth over a billion?"

Zhuang Wanshu was somewhat surprised. Even their Great Grandfather had only given Zhuang Xin a billion as startup capital. An unrelated 'big brother' was willing to front such a large sum for Zhuang Xin?

"Yes, General Manager Zhu also said that his life was saved by Young Master Zhuang, and he only recognizes him as his brother in this lifetime." Secretary Lin's tone was incredibly soft, and she nudged Zhuang Xin with her shoulder.

"I've always heard that General Manager Zhu values loyalty and repays kindness. It seems the rumors are true." Zhuang Wanshu frowned, saying this, but still felt a bit worried.

In her opinion, at their level, even so-called 'life-saving grace' had long been taken lightly. Besides, according to her information, Zhuang Xin 'saving Zhu Zuo' back then was just an accident.

No one would have known if Zhu Zuo hadn't mentioned it.

Yet Zhu Zuo brought it up and treated Zhuang Xin so well. Perhaps it had something to do with Zhuang Xin being a member of the Zhuang family.

When Zhuang Xin eventually inherited the position of family head, he would have a certain amount of power, regardless of anything else. It might be because of this.

Thinking this, Zhuang Wanshu sighed inwardly.

While she was lost in thought, the elevator finally stopped at the top floor.

The doors opened, revealing a soft red carpet spread across the floor, leading directly to a room at the very back.

The room door was open, and it was quiet all around.

Even walking down the corridor, through the glass windows not far away, one could see an open-air swimming pool built on the top floor, with traffic and bustling city buildings visible outside.

When they reached the room door, Zhu Zuo's voice from inside chuckled, "You're here? Come in for some tea."

Zhu Zuo walked to the door with a smile, shook hands with Zhuang Wanshu and Zhuang Xin, and then invited them in.

"General Manager Zhu, we're here this time because I want my younger brother to finalize the project payment and the contract. Making it official is good for everyone."

"I understand. Didn't Miss Zhuang already bring the contract? This matter can be settled anytime. I'd actually be more pleased if my little brother could join me for a meal later. Miss Zhuang won't interfere with the bond between us brothers, will you?" After speaking, Zhu Zuo put his arm around Zhuang Xin's shoulder and led him inside with a smile.

Zhuang Wanshu was stunned by Zhu Zuo's intimate gesture.

She had never seen Zhu Zuo act like this before, nor had anyone ever received such a reception from him.

Even if their Great Grandfather had come, Zhu Zuo would likely have welcomed him with only the most ordinary courtesy.
