Chapter 356 - 246: Rain in Magic City



At the end of March, the heavy rain was pouring.

The spring rain in Magic City had arrived suddenly and fiercely, and the air was still filled with a hint of rain.

In the trainee camp, Jiang Peiyao once again saw off two girls as they left together. n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

The competition system, not very brutal, still reflected a modern enterprise’s strict elimination process.

From then on, every episode would eliminate two girls.

Luckily, the two who were eliminated had been mentally prepared well in advance.

This departure wasn’t a departure from Magic City but a fresh start from another enterprise of the group, Xin Teng Live Streaming.

Starting with several million annual salaries, it also signified their gains in this trainee competition.

"Peiyao, is the big boss still in Magic City?" Shen Wanning curiously asked her.

"Yes, my brother-in-law has been here all this time."

"Oh." Shen Wanning was quite keen to meet the big boss, but she was too embarrassed to say it, mainly for lack of a reason, she guessed.

Maybe it’s always like this.

Only after the trainee competition was completely over would she have a chance to meet the big boss again.

A ding-dong sounded.

Jiang Peiyao’s WeChat notification popped up, featuring an avatar of a chubby little girl flashing vigorously.

Chen An’an, since the last time she stealthily appeared on stage with Director Zhou, her dad hadn’t brought her to Magic City.

This time after sneaking over with her stepmom, she immediately messaged Aunt Peiyao.

She asked her to go shopping.

Shen Wanning also knew this little girl, the daughter of the big boss, very wealthy and especially fond of mischief.

The big boss hardly reined her in.

"Aunt Peiyao, I’m in Magic City, let’s hang out."

Jiang Peiyao asked her where she was, and Chen An’an sent her a location.

Jiang Peiyao drove there, and before leaving, she asked Shen Wanning if she wanted to come along, to which she agreed after some thought.

Magic City is touted as a paradise for the wealthy, only those with ample numbers in their bank accounts truly belong at the Ten Li Foreign Market, a place of luxurious excess.

Chen An’an, now nine years old, was still wearing oversized toad sunglasses.

She really enjoyed playing with Yang Xi, and had even invited her over during a two-day holiday.

Thanks to her, Yang Xi had secured a job at the marketing department.

The two sat in an Antler Coffee on Nanjing Street amidst the bustling crowd.

The servers inside didn’t realize that the group’s young miss had graced their presence.

They just felt she could drink a lot, ordering one cup after another.

Chen An’an: "Big sister, your creamy coffee is really tasty, your boss must be very smart, his daughter must be super smart too, to have a coffee shop this good to drink from, don’t you think so?"

Yang Xi sat across from her, feeling a bit awkward.

Isn’t Antler Coffee your family’s business?

Talking this way about your dad, doesn’t he scold you?

The server, unaware of her identity, felt not only was her drinking odd, but her conversation too.

If the boss is smart, what does that have to do with his daughter?

The server, a pretty young woman barely in her twenties,

said, "Little sister, our boss is definitely awesome, you are super cute too, here’s our newly introduced Coconut Royal Latte."

"Quite nice, super tasty."

Chen An’an patted her little belly, phrases like ’chubby’ or ’Little Fatty,’ weren’t a concern for her.

By the time Jiang Peiyao arrived, she was still vigorously sipping away.

"An’an, why didn’t you go to your dad’s?"

"I was going to, just said a few extra words on the phone, right?"

"Dad actually thought I was talkative, even said I was annoying, gave me a card, and told me to go play wherever I wanted, am I annoying? Am I talkative? Not at all."

Chen An’an certainly wouldn’t consider herself talkative, only that she was cute and adorable.

Jiang Peiyao now felt that she did talk a bit too much, had she reached an age of being talkative?

Chen An’an curiously looked at the server, "Big sister, do you think I talk too much?"

"Not at all, little girl, your talk is very interesting."

"Is that so?"

The server looked at her sincerely, and Chen An’an laughed, "Big sister, I just love hearing you speak the plain truth, Aunt Peiyao, tell finance to award this big sister fifty thousand."

After a thought, Chen An’an added: "No no, fifty thousand is too little, not even enough for a small restroom, let finance pay this big sister five hundred thousand."

Huh?

Jiang Peiyao stiffened up, she quietly sent a message to her brother-in-law.

Chen Pingsheng asked her to do as Chen An’an wished.

Today was her birthday, she could create chaos if she wanted to.

The server, thinking it was a joke, was shocked when, less than an hour after they left, she received a message from company finance.

Her bank account had received a cash transfer of five hundred thousand, and upon checking the sender, wasn’t it the group headquarters?

It was unexpected and a wonderful surprise.

Chen An’an loved creating surprising incidents the most.

Jiang Peiyao’s convertible Phantom could easily fit four people.

In a place like The Bund in Magic City, seeing luxury cars was not too surprising.

Jiang Peiyao asked her, "An’an, where do you want to go?"

"Let’s go shopping first."

Chen An’an sipped her milky coffee, no need to think about anything else.

Jiang Peiyao drove her to Global Harbor, with two cars trailing not too far behind them.

Others might not know, but Jiang Peiyao clearly understood those were the security detail following Chen An’an.

Global Harbor is a landmark building in the Putuo district, a massive shopping mall with a total area of 480,000 square meters.

It is a very famous five-star shopping center in Magic City, not only hosting numerous international brands but also many specialty restaurants and cultural events.
