In the morning, Zhang Yang's private jet landed at Pudong International Airport.

Coming back from the sub-zero temperatures of northern China, and then adjusting to the above-zero temperatures of Magic City, it felt incredibly warm.

"Finally... I'm back."

Bei Jiajia walked off the plane with her head held high and chest out, taking a deep breath and sighing.

Traveling is nothing special, but flying to Harbin in my brother-in-law's private jet, visiting Mohe Ice and Snow World, and seeing the aurora borealis was something else entirely.

All of the above are undoubtedly precious and worthy of her long-lasting remembrance.

Thinking of this, Bei Jiajia couldn't help but raise her phone and take a photo of herself with the private jet.

Vanity is something everyone has.

"Haven't you taken enough pictures yet?" Zhang Yang asked with amusement as he passed by. "Hurry up, I need to get you back as soon as possible, I have things to do."

"Ah?" Bei Jiajia quickly put away her phone, feeling embarrassed. "Brother-in-law, how about my sister and I go back first, and you can go ahead with your work?"

"Just come with me." Zhang Yang waved.

A moment later, the group left the airport through the VVIP channel and went straight to the roadside.

The Phantom that was supposed to pick them up was already waiting by the roadside.

"Chairman Zhang." The driver quickly got out to help put the luggage away.

Bei Jiajia sat down comfortably, and as soon as she sat on the incredibly soft seat, comparable to a first-class seat, she felt as if she were sinking into it.

He travels by private jet and drives Rolls-Royce Phantom.

This is what life is all about!

Wrong··

She glanced at Bei Wei, whose expression was much calmer than hers, and her heart skipped a beat... To be precise, this was Bei Wei's life, while she had only managed to get it by chance.

"What are you looking at?" Bei Wei asked, looking over curiously.

"I'm reminiscing," Bei Jiajia said, gently hugging Bei Wei's arm. "Reminiscing about when we were little, how could I have never imagined my sister would be born into such wealth?"

"A super-rich woman?" Bei Wei gently pinched her. "You... talking nonsense."

Sitting in the passenger seat, Zhang Yang listened to the two sisters bickering in the back and couldn't help but smile slightly.

This trip to the North for New Year's Eve felt like a dream.

Now that I'm back in Magic City, it's time to keep myself a little busy.

Other big and small matters don't really matter, since we have our own professional managers and a team of experts that we've built with a lot of money to handle things. But the zero-yuan shopping landmark we got on New Year's Eve is the most important thing.

Small landmarks with a value of less than six billion.

Even among the Magic City buildings with more than 24 stories and 195 skyscrapers with more than 150 meters in height in Shanghai, this is definitely among the top.

Finding a building that meets the requirements for sale is actually not difficult, since there are very few that do.

With that thought in mind, he casually sent a message to Zhou Zhaodong of Cloud Sea Capital, telling him his specific requirements and asking him to look for suitable candidates.

Later that evening, the Phantom drove directly to Lakeville Regency.

Although they traveled by private jet and were chauffeured around during this trip, it doesn't mean the Bei Wei sisters weren't tired.

So, let's take them back to rest first.

The underground parking garage of Lakeville Regency is lined with luxury cars.

Here, you can see Ferraris, Bentley, and Maybach everywhere... Cars under a million are really rare, while cars costing several million are the mainstream, practically everywhere.

As for cars costing several million or tens of millions, they certainly aren't ubiquitous here, but you can see them from time to time.

Zhang Yang's two Phantom Zenith Collection, priced at around 18 million RMB, are certainly among the top tier, if not the absolute best.

As for dominating the entire field, that would probably require his Apollo.

When we bought this apartment in Lakeville Regency for Bei Wei, we naturally got the parking space at the same time.

At this moment, in the parking space next to Bei Wei's Panamera, the Phantom was parked quietly.

Zhang Yang got out of the car and gently hugged Bei Wei goodbye.

"Beckham?"

A well-maintained woman got out of an Alphard not far away and looked over with great surprise.

"It's my neighbor Sister Liu," Bei Wei said softly, nodding from a distance.

A moment later, the family who got out of the Alphard walked over.

They were the woman from earlier, her husband, and a little boy.

"Xiao Bei, oh my... it's been a while since I've seen you. Did you go on a New Year's trip? And this is..." Ms. Liu stood to the side, looking at the Phantom in front of her with amazement in her eyes.

"Sister Liu, this is my boyfriend." Bei Wei introduced him confidently, linking her arm with Zhang Yang's.

"Your boyfriend?" Ms. Liu looked at Zhang Yang and gasped.

Looks, demeanor, car, driver.

It gives the impression that someone with less than tens or hundreds of billions in assets couldn't possibly cover this up, right?

"Hello, hello." She instantly became many times more enthusiastic, introducing herself in a familiar manner, "I'm Bei Wei's neighbor, my surname is Liu, this is my husband and child."

Based on the idea that a close neighbor is better than a distant relative, Zhang Yang exchanged pleasantries in a friendly and polite manner.

The woman's husband is quite refined, and her child is very polite. As for this Ms. Liu... well, she talks a lot, exudes warmth, and has an undeniable shrewdness.

"Okay, you guys go upstairs and get some rest. I'm going to the company now." Zhang Yang gave Bei Wei a few instructions, nodded to the family in front of him, then turned around, opened the door, and got into the car.

A moment later, the Phantom turned on its taillights and left the spot.

"Oh dear, Xiao Bei, why didn't you tell me sooner that you had such a wonderful boyfriend?" Ms. Liu said, pulling Bei Wei along and chatting intimately.

Bei Wei felt a little uncomfortable, because Ms. Liu wasn't usually like this.

Sometimes when we go out, we might bump into each other and just nod and say hello, but there's never this kind of enthusiastic, back-and-forth chat like today.

This Ms. Liu gave her a feeling of pride.

"By the way, Xiao Bei, your boyfriend owns a company, right? Where is it located? Is it a big business?"

"Oh, right, you haven't eaten yet, have you? Come over to my house for a meal, don't be shy, a close neighbor is worse than a distant relative!"

Ms. Liu said with a smile the whole way.

Despite repeated refusals, Bei Wei finally entered the house with Bei Jiajia.

"Sis, is this really her?" Bei Jiajia couldn't help but laugh. "She's so pragmatic. The last few times I saw her, she just nodded and didn't say a word. Look at her today..."

"What's wrong with that? It's only human nature," Bei Wei said, not finding it strange at all.

"Hmph, if she knew my brother-in-law's true wealth, wouldn't she be scared to death?" Bei Jiajia muttered.

Just now, when that kind neighbor inquired about Zhang Yang's information, Bei Wei didn't say much, only briefly mentioning that he runs a company in Pudong.

As for other things, such as owning office buildings, a chain of over a hundred Soup King Hotpot restaurants, luxury homes, cars, and private jets, she didn't mention any of them. If her notoriously arrogant neighbor knew all this, wouldn't he be constantly knocking on her door?

"What's on your mind all day? All you do is show off! I didn't even dare to say anything to you when your brother-in-law was there with all those posts on your WeChat Moments," Bei Wei said reproachfully.

"What's wrong with that? It's always better to show it off openly than to hide it." Bei Jiajia spouted a bunch of platitudes. "That's called building a persona, creating a social media presence... By the way, sis, I have a very, very personal question for you."

Bei Jiajia's eyes flickered, and she lowered her voice to ask.

Upon hearing this question, Bei Wei blushed instantly. "You... you really do come up with something out of nowhere."

"Oh, just tell me, does it work or not?" Bei Jiajia's curiosity was piqued, and she kept tugging at Bei Wei's arm, pestering her with questions.

Unable to resist her persistent pestering, Bei Wei could only blush and shake her head.

"It's no use?" Bei Jiajia's eyes widened as she looked at Bei Wei's belly. "Let me do the math... Hiss, doesn't this mean there's a very high chance you're carrying a little prince... Oh my god!"

Bei Jiajia's legs went weak, and she almost knelt down.

"Come, come, dear sister, come here, be careful, sit here."

"Stop acting up. Even if there is one, it's just a seed. Do you really have to be like this?" Although Bei Wei said this, she subconsciously touched her lower abdomen, her expression inexplicably showing a hint of maternal warmth.

"Anyway, it's best to be careful." Bei Jiajia was filled with mixed feelings, muttering to herself, "A mother's status rises with her son... it's definitely a mother's status rises with her son."

Bei Wei blinked. "Oh, right, noon..."

"I'll order takeout," Bei Jiajia blurted out.

"Huh? I don't eat takeout. Never mind, I'll just go out and buy groceries." Bei Wei stood up and gently rubbed her lower back.

"Oh, sis, if you want me to go grocery shopping and cook, just say so." Bei Jiajia gently pressed Bei Wei down. "Just don't forget about me, your adopted sister, after you give birth to Zhang Yang's son."

"When have I ever forgotten you..."

"Hmph, you still dare to say that? You get all sensitive just because my brother-in-law and I get a little close..."

··

After dropping off the Bei Wei sisters, Zhang Yang naturally headed straight to the company.

Although he's a complete hands-off boss, he still has to show up at the company occasionally.

Standing at the foot of the office building, Zhang Yang looked up at the Grade A office building.

Soon!

Soon he will have his own headquarters office building.

His first office building, Yunheng Building, Magic City, though there are countless such buildings there. This is evident from its construction cost.

The office building they're about to own has a maximum total price of six billion yuan, which would be quite prestigious to use as a headquarters building.

The first floor will be used as the headquarters, and the rest will be rented out.

A moment later, Zhang Yang stepped into the elevator of the office building and went straight to his company.

The elevator doors opened.

The two young girls at the front desk subconsciously looked up, then reflexively stood up.

"Chairman Zhang."

"Hello, Chairman Zhang."

Zhang Yang nodded with a pleasant expression and walked straight into the company.

He has never been one to put on airs in front of his frontline employees, and he is happy to cultivate an image of a kind and approachable boss.

The news of the big boss's visit to the company spread throughout the entire organization almost instantly.

As Zhang Yang walked along, he was constantly greeted with well wishes.

From afar, Bai Xiaomi, wearing high heels, took small, quick steps and came over to greet him.

"Slow down, don't twist your ankle," Zhang Yang kindly reminded him.

"Don't worry, Chairman Zhang, I'm not the Bai Jingyi I used to be." Bai Xiaomi, dressed in sophisticated urban attire, exuded an air of intellectual elegance. "By the way, I have something I'd like to report to you."

She looked at Zhang Yang intently.

"Huh?" Zhang Yang was somewhat surprised.

This serious demeanor of Bai Xiaomi surprised her quite a bit.

But··

He glanced around at the employees who seemed to be looking straight ahead but were actually paying attention, and then at Bai Xiaomi's seemingly serious but actually darting eyes, and couldn't help but chuckle to himself.

Okay, so you're just putting on an act, huh?

"Okay, come to my office." Zhang Yang nodded and walked straight to the office in the distance.

Bai Jingyi blinked and quickly followed beside her.

A moment later, the chairman's office, bright and clean, was quiet and private.

The two went in one after the other, and the door closed.

As soon as Zhang Yang turned around, he felt a warmth in his arms.

With a slight bow of her head, Bai Xiaomi closed her eyes and tilted her face up, initiating a kiss.

Zhang Yang smiled, his arm around Bai Xiaomi's waist, watching her with a half-smile, without making any further moves.

As if she hadn't received what she wanted, Bai Xiaomi's eyelashes trembled slightly as she opened her eyes.

"Please, please," she pleaded pitifully.

"You're getting a little bolder," Zhang Yang said with a smile, kissing her lips. "Weren't you supposed to be giving a work report? Is this how you do it?"

"That's how it was reported." Bai Xiaomi wrapped her arms around Zhang Yang's neck, wanting to kiss him again.

The kiss was long and passionate, sweet yet carrying the scent of longing.

Zhang Yang had intended to give her a good slap on the bottom, but when the moment came, even with his hand raised, he thought about it and couldn't bring himself to do it. Instead, he wrapped his arms around her waist and moved his hand down to her bottom.

After an unknown amount of time, Bai Xiaomi obediently sat on Zhang Yang's lap.

"Chairman Zhang, is the aurora beautiful?"

"They're beautiful, red, purple, and green. Why are you asking this?" Zhang Yang asked knowingly.

"I was just asking," Bai Xiaomi hugged Zhang Yang's neck, "Can I book a time slot? I've never seen the aurora borealis before."

"You?" Zhang Yang looked at Bai Xiaomi, but didn't give her an answer.

Bai Jingyi's expression went from anticipation to nervousness, then to disappointment, and finally to an "I knew it" look.

"Okay, I understand."

"I didn't say anything and you already knew? What do you know?" Zhang Yang pinched her nose. "Depending on your performance, I might consider giving you a polar trip, Iceland or Finland, anything will do, but don't even think about New Year's Eve."

Bai Xiaomi was overjoyed and nodded quickly.

"Chairman Zhang, I know you want to spend New Year's Eve with your loved ones. I understand, and I don't dare to hope for it, but whenever you need me, Jingyi's New Year's Eve will always be reserved for you."

It would be a lie to say I don't like Bai Xiaomi, who is so well-behaved and knows how to coax people.

"That's a very sensible thing to say. Well, here's an extra 100,000 yuan for your new house renovation fund. Once you've accumulated a million, you can withdraw the money." Zhang Yang generously gave the reward.

The house I bought for Bai Jingyi last time was still just a bare shell.

We're still a long way from moving in.

To motivate Bai Xiaomi and encourage her to perform better, Zhang Yang Bai Xiaomi specially arranged a renovation fund for her last time, adding funds to the fund based on her performance.

Furthermore, you can withdraw the money once you've accumulated one million.

"Really?!" Bai Xiaomi cheered immediately, hugging Zhang Yang tightly. "Chairman Zhang, can I still perform well tonight? I definitely won't let you down."
