Wade had just returned from running errands when he was alerted and personally led his security team to his door.
Unlike future community security guards in mainland China, where two of them would be at least 150 years old combined, four of them would only have eight teeth.
Even if Nie's security team couldn't compare to Boss Nie's personal bodyguards, they were all highly capable. They swarmed upstairs, and the receptionist, trembling with fear, also stood aside.
Although the video recording hadn't arrived yet, she wasn't blind, so she said, "President Nie, I swear to God, the only person in the elevator with Miss Jiaying was Vice Chairman Chen, and no one else."
He bowed to Chen Rou again: "I'm sorry, Vice Chairman Chen. I thought she came with you, so I didn't ask."
Since it involved company employees, and considering that the minor celebrity was only assaulting her sexually, not physically, and that she was wearing very short shorts, and Chen Rou did indeed bend over in the elevator, although she didn't peep, it was inevitable that it would cause misunderstandings for the minor celebrity.
So when she saw Wade call the police, she said, "It's just a small misunderstanding, let's settle it privately."
Wade, of course, had to listen to the boss's wife, so he pressed the call button.
But Nie Zhao said, "Call the police and get reporters."
He then said to Chen Rou, "I need to speak with you about something. Come into my office."
Pulled into his office, Chen Rou was about to explain what had happened and thought it best not to argue with a young girl, but Nie Zhao clearly understood her intentions and said, "If we try to downplay this, there's an 80% chance she'll tell the media about her encounter with the pervert today and imply that our hotel's security is inadequate. That would be a fatal blow."
Chen Rou has a unique mainland Chinese perspective on Hong Kong stars: she knows relatively little about their private lives, but has watched many of their films and television shows, so she naturally develops a favorable impression. She said, "We have video surveillance footage, which can clarify things."
Nie Zhao loosened his tie again and rested his elbows on the table: "She's happy that we're going to clarify things; she'll gain double the fame and fortune."
Does that minor celebrity named Li Jiaying like Nie Zhao? Of course not.
She might fantasize about not having a wealthy husband like him while reading the newspaper because of his handsome face, and she might also fantasize about loving him and marrying him. But what if she knew his greedy, cowardly, and petty nature?
She's still young and signed with a small agency.
The small workshop liked to use strong ingredients, and the task the boss assigned her was like having a little drill wind kill Sun Wukong.
She took the job because she was reckless and impulsive, unaware of her own limitations.
Although she failed to seduce a billionaire or become a mistress to a wealthy man.
But when she went back and talked to her boss, he was sure he would cause trouble.
After all, these days, celebrities are worried about not having any juicy stories or sensational scoops. She's already spent seven or eight thousand a day on room and board, so why not release some fake news and get on the front page?
But for Nie Zhao, even if he releases the video to clarify, being called a "pervert" is still a particularly damaging thing to his reputation, which will affect the occupancy rate of his hotel. And what if other girls follow suit once the floodgates are opened?
That would increase the security burden and also increase potential security risks.
Seeing that Chen Rou was keeping her head down and not speaking, he said softly, "Okay, I know you appreciate girls who work hard and don't want to make things too difficult for them, but you have to think about us."
Chen Rou looked down, searching for egg stains on her pants. Just as she was about to explain, Nie Zhao immediately said, "I know it was you."
...
A minor celebrity named Li Jiaying burst into Nie Zhao's office, saying abruptly, "I think I'm lost."
Many girls think that, like in the movies, big bosses like cute, scatterbrained women.
So after she finished speaking, she pretended to cry and asked, "Where is this place? How did I end up here?"
Nie Zhao assumed it was a new intern and thought to himself, "So stupid that someone could mistakenly walk into my office? They don't need to work anymore; they should just go home and get married." He was furious and asked the person, "Who is your supervisor?"
He certainly wouldn't scold a little girl; if anyone needed discipline, it would be Secretary An who disciplined her supervisor.
As soon as the girl saw that he was angry, she suddenly walked towards him and started talking about perverts. Secretary An stood there dumbfounded and didn't move. Boss Nie had to circle the table twice to avoid the girl. He asked her if she was scared.
Actually, based on her description, he knew who the pervert she was talking about was as soon as they stepped outside—his wife.
As the two were chatting, Secretary An gently knocked on the door: "Boss?"
Nie Zhao was in a foul mood: "I won't see you."
He added, "We will strictly follow the law. If she wants to settle things peacefully, she must sign a guarantee."
The police officers who came to handle the matter wanted to see him, but Boss Nie didn't want to see them and only wanted to handle the matter officially and teach the girl a lesson. However, after Secretary An left, seeing that Chen Rou was still frowning, Nie Zhao suddenly asked, "You wouldn't...?"
The minor celebrity was wearing a miniskirt. Boss Nie bent down and looked at his wife: "...You really looked at her?"
When Chen Rou was young, she was just as headstrong as the minor celebrity Li Jiaying, and of course, she was also severely reprimanded by her superiors.
She knew that if a girl was too naive when she entered society, she would definitely suffer.
But as someone in the same social class, seeing a girl about to suffer a loss without being able to help her makes her feel uncomfortable.
She leaned against the counter, bent over, but Boss Nie was looking at her with his legs spread apart, in a posture that showed absolutely no regard for his image.
Chen Rou paused for a moment, finding it inexplicably funny, and asked, "What if I saw it?"
Nie Zhao remained in that ridiculous pose for a long time without moving.
His wife possessed a unique androgynous charm that other women lacked. She always got along well with men and also had good relationships with girls, such as Bao Yuyan and Nie Han. She never showed jealousy or rivalry for his affections.
