With the promise made earlier, Jing Ke's attitude indeed became much more obedient, and he followed Yu Ningning out without saying a word.
To make traveling easier, Yu Ningning called a car on her phone.
I thought it would take a while to hail a car during the morning rush hour.
To everyone's surprise, as soon as the order was placed, Yu Ningning received a message that the order had been accepted and the vehicle had arrived downstairs.
"That was quick," she said, leading Jing Ke downstairs.
The two walked together to the hotel entrance and reached the designated pick-up point, where they indeed found a car waiting with its hazard lights on.
but……
Gazing at the Rolls-Royce emblem, a perfect blend of understated elegance and luxury, Yu Ningning fell silent for a moment: "Can you now hail a Rolls-Royce for seventy yuan on a ride-hailing app?"
Just as Ningning dialed the number to confirm with the platform and the driver who accepted the order, the window of the Rolls-Royce rolled down.
Shen Longcheng's strikingly handsome face was revealed, his eyes still cold and distant, his tone calm: "Excuse me, are you Miss Yu? I'm the ride-sharing service you just booked online."
"..." Yu Ningning wanted to complain, but was speechless: "A Rolls-Royce giving a ride..."
Shen Longcheng showed no emotion on his face and calmly said, "Save where you should save and spend where you should spend. Even driving a Rolls-Royce requires earning money for gas, doesn't it?"
This statement is absolutely flawless.
Even Yu Ningning fell silent for a moment.
After a moment, she accepted the fact and said, "The time I agreed with Mr. Shen on the platform to board the bus has not yet arrived. Mr. Shen, could you please wait a moment? I have a companion who needs to board the bus."
Shen Longcheng raised his eyebrows slightly, his voice as pleasant as a deep zither: "Is Miss Yu waiting for the assistant who will be applying today?"
Yu Ningning narrowed her eyes slightly: "How did Mr. Shen know?"
Chen Longcheng shook his phone at Yu Ningning and said calmly, "Because I am the applicant, and I had communicated with Miss Yu before."
"If I remember correctly," Yu Ningning glanced subtly at the Rolls-Royce in Chenlong City, and said cautiously and tactfully, "the salary I asked for should be nine thousand, not ninety million..."
Shen Longcheng continued, "I am well aware of the salary level Miss Yu has offered. But as I just said to Miss Yu, even someone who drives a Rolls-Royce needs to earn money if they lose their job, right?"
Even though she was used to big events, Yu Ningning was momentarily silent.
Seeing through the scrutiny and probing in Yu Ningning's eyes, Shen Longcheng seemed to feel more pleased and jokingly said, "Miss Yu, do you not trust my work ability? Do you not believe I can be your assistant?"
Yu Ningning said with amusement, "If the current heir of the Shen family, a thousand-year-old family, and a renowned genius investor in the business world, can't even handle the duties of a small assistant, then I have to consider whether there's something wrong with me."
Seeing that Yu Ningning had immediately recognized his identity, Shen Longcheng was not angry. He simply raised an eyebrow and said, "So Miss Yu is planning to make me her assistant?"
When soldiers come, generals will block them; when water comes, earth will dam it.
Although she didn't know what Uncle Shen Jiu's purpose was, the fact that he was able to get her taxi orders and even applied for the job of her assistant showed that she must have been targeted by him.
Given the unfathomable power of the Shen family, a family with a history spanning thousands of years, Yu Ningning knew she was currently unable to break free.
If that's the case, she might as well adapt to the situation.
So she immediately raised an eyebrow and said, "Just as Mr. Shen said, what reason do I have to refuse?"
