Chapter 145 I hope to see vibrant life

On the way to the suburban airport.

Inside the car.

Cheng Jiao put down her phone and reported the situation: "Miss, Xiao Ma has already called the police, and he is currently at the police station with Yang Huatian."

Ever since she heard Yu Shuo talk about Yang Huatian's sinister personality the other day, Ling Yue had kept her guard up.

Once the bodyguards arrived, she immediately dispatched five of them to monitor Yang Huatian.

This pretentious man really had the nerve.

He sent people to investigate her and even staked her out in the middle of the night.

[resentment value: 20%]

[resentment value: 22%]

Look! Just look!

He didn't manage to catch anyone, and now that he's been caught himself, he's starting to hold a grudge.

Tsk, tsk, tsk.

His heart must be the size of a needle eye.

It was definitely the right decision to be on guard against him in advance.

"Since he likes monitoring people so much, let him stay at the police station for a while longer, so he doesn't have the chance to let his eyes wander the moment he gets out."

Cheng Jiao smiled slyly: "Understood, Miss."

Yang Huatian's surveillance methods were not sophisticated; he even tried to dig for information through Cheng Jiao's friends.

Send all this evidence to Xiao Ma and have him hand it all over to the police.

In a private hospital in Guang Province, VIP ward.

"Doctor, how is she?"

Assistant Shen pointed at the unconscious Long Zhuoyan on the bed and asked the doctor indifferently.

The doctor said: "It's just a common cold and fever; she can be discharged once the fever breaks."

"Then why hasn't she woken up yet?"

"She's just sleeping because she's feeling unwell. She should wake up in about an hour or two. Remember to keep an eye on the IV drip; when it runs out, just..."

Before the doctor could finish, Assistant Shen waved his hand impatiently: "Alright, alright, I got it. Thank you, Doctor, you can go now."

The doctor shot Assistant Shen a strange look and muttered something as he left the room.

Assistant Shen plopped down onto the sofa.

After running around for so many days, he could finally get some proper rest.

He started a couple of games and was just pushing a tower when his phone rang.

It was a work call; he couldn't ignore it.

His tone was not great: "Hello, what is it?"

He didn't know what the person on the other end said.

"Who? Arrested?" Assistant Shen suddenly stood up. "Yang Huatian was arrested? What did he do? No, is he sick? Why provoke Ling Yue? I can't get away from here; figure out how to manage your own work!"

Knock, knock, knock—

Someone knocked on the door.

Assistant Shen moved the phone away and said: "Come in."

A Nurse walked in.

The moment she looked at the bedside, she sprinted forward, accompanied by a loud reprimand: "Oh my god! What is wrong with you as a family member? The patient's IV line has backflow!"

Assistant Shen looked back, and it was true.

The blood was almost flowing back into the IV bag.

In the Nurse's eyes, this was pure negligence by the family member!

She first restored the IV to normal, then led Assistant Shen into the hallway and gave him a thorough dressing down.

Assistant Shen couldn't argue back, lest he make a scene, so he could only obediently take the scolding.

Fortunately, the Nurse was very busy and left to check on other patients after just a few words.

Damn it, what kind of situation is this?

The phone was still calling out with "Hello? Hello? Hello?"

It was so annoying.

Assistant Shen picked up the phone and retorted sternly: "Whatever mess Yang Huatian caused has nothing to do with me! I only care about doing my own job; solve your own problems.

But I want to warn you, if there are any problems on your end, just wait to be dealt with by the big boss.

Don't call me at the drop of a hat in the future. Don't forget what my current job is; wait for me to contact you!"

He hung up the phone angrily.

He composed himself and returned to the ward; Long Zhuoyan was still sleeping.

Heh, she's comfortable enough.

Sleeping like the dead, unaware of everything.

There were many people returning to Hangzhou.

Ling Yue chartered two business jets.

They landed in Hangzhou at 3:00 PM.

They split into two groups.

Li Xinfeng took Qu Shu and the other two, along with 10 bodyguards, back to Bamboo Forest Residence to deliver the jade.

Ling Yue took the remaining bodyguards and Cheng Jiao to the newly purchased company building!

"The company address is located in the Weike International Business Park next to Hengjing Park. It was completed last year and delivered with high-end renovations; we only need to add soft furnishings and office supplies later.

It's located in the core area of the new district in Hangzhou, with new property management and high quality. It has 5 floors in total—1 basement level for a garage, and 4 floors above ground for office space. It includes a 600-square-meter backyard and a 1000-square-meter terrace as a leisure and relaxation area for employees.

The office building features a full glass curtain wall exterior, offering good light and views. It covers 4,428 square meters and is a new project built by Dali Group in collaboration with developers. Because the building we bought has the largest area and the best location, it was relatively expensive, so it hadn't been rented or sold until now.

However, after Dali Group learned that you wanted to buy this office building, they specifically gave us a 5% discount, and we successfully acquired it for 728 million."

As Cheng Jiao finished speaking, they arrived at the company entrance.

Throughout the journey, Ling Yue had been viewing everything from the perspective of an employee.

At this moment, her satisfaction with this place reached its peak.

The surrounding area is full of greenery and close to the park. Usually, one can enjoy the beautiful garden view while sitting in the office, and during lunch breaks, one can go out for a walk to relax.

In terms of environment, it is definitely top-tier.

This area is full of standalone office buildings with strict security management and good service. The standalone building comes with an underground garage, and the surface parking lot also has designated parking spots for shared bikes.

The entire office complex has 4 exits, each close to bus stops. The exit closest to Ling Yue's building is only a 150-meter walk to the subway station, making commuting to and from work very convenient.

The area is filled with convenience stores, supermarkets, as well as on-site restaurants, fruit shops, tea shops, gyms, swimming pools, badminton courts, and so on.

Listening to Cheng Jiao, she realized that owners and tenants are treated differently.

Since she bought the office building in full, she can let employees enjoy a separate fitness area. It's not only free, but they also don't have to worry about competing with people from other companies. Later, they can even hire a few professional trainers to provide free instruction, allowing them to balance work and fitness!

"Not bad, not bad!"

She is simply too thoughtful!

Ling Yue had already fully immersed herself in the role.

If she could have met a boss as good as herself when she was a corporate slave, she would have complained a lot less when working overtime at night.

Stepping into the company entrance.

The soft furnishings and greenery were not yet in place, so the whole space looked bare.

"Hello, who are you looking for?" The receptionist, who had been hired, was tidying up her desk. Seeing someone arrive, she immediately stepped forward to ask.

Her attitude was gentle and polite; not bad.

Cheng Jiao observed Ling Yue's expression; seeing she wasn't resistant, she said: "This is the company's owner, Ling Yue."

"Hello, President Ling!" The receptionist clutched a rag and bowed slightly.

She had heard that the company's chairman was surnamed Ling, but she had never met her and didn't know her gender.

So it was such a young woman.

"Are you the only one in the company?" Ling Yue asked her.

The receptionist said: "There are also two accountants, two administrative staff, Lawyer Qian, and President Wei. They are working in the small conference room on the second floor."

"Didn't they say the interior designer had arrived? Where are they?" This was one of the main purposes of Ling Yue's visit.

"An administrative staff member is receiving them. Do you need me to call them over?"

Ling Yue nodded at the young receptionist: "Please do, and call Lawyer Qian down as well."

The cleaning team had already cleaned the company inside and out; the floor was so clean it reflected people's faces.

Ling Yue walked around and came to the backyard.

This space only had basic landscaping, and several patches of ground were bare and unattractive.

It must be utilized properly later, with flower beds, small bridges and flowing water, a tea room, and so on.

"President Ling."

Someone called her from behind, and Ling Yue turned around.

She saw a young woman around thirty years old, who said: "President Ling, I am Xiao Wang from administration. The design team and Lawyer Qian are already waiting for you in the first-floor lounge. When shall we go over?"

"Let's go now." Ling Yue stepped forward.

A string of people followed behind her, truly giving off that feeling of a domineering CEO inspecting a corporation.

The lounge was simply decorated, with only a sofa set and a coffee table, meeting the needs for temporary guest reception.

According to the departments planned by Qian Xu, the preliminary employee plan, and so on.

Ling Yue began to express her ideas: "Regarding the design style, there are only two points: relaxed and vibrant.

For the entire large office area, design open-plan workstations for about 500 people. Based on the departmental job planning we provided, distribute them across the 4 floors of office space. I need a relatively spacious working environment.

On the first floor of the office building, we need to configure more leisure activity areas. We need to set up a quiet book room;

A relaxing entertainment room, equipped with popular motion-sensing games, pool tables, arcade machines, basketball shooting machines, etc., on the market. Soundproofing must be done well;

A quiet lounge, equipped with massage chairs, reclining sofas, single rest beds, etc., for everyone to take a temporary nap;

A free beverage station; hire a few employees who specialize in making coffee, drinks, and know how to bake;

Each floor should be arranged with an independent dining area, including the backyard and the terrace. The control and distribution of the quantity will be left to you designers to handle;

And conference rooms..."

Ling Yue said a lot, her mouth was dry, so she gulped down half a bottle of mineral water.

She had even constructed a panoramic view of the company in her mind.

Fortunately, this was a team very mature in office design; they could grasp every point Ling Yue made.

"The last point: company greenery. I hope to see vibrant life." Ling Yue pinched her hands together and made a blooming gesture.

The lead designer felt a lot of pressure: "We understand. But since you need it so urgently, how about I show you a few case studies first?"

Ling Yue nodded.

After looking at at least 15 cases, they finally settled on one of them.

The lead designer said: "We already know the overall layout, so I won't waste any more time. I will go back immediately to create the first draft of the design and get it to you."

Ling Yue stood up to see them off: "Thank you for your hard work."

"It's our duty."

The lead designer let out a silent sigh of relief and left with the team members.

As expected, well-paying jobs are never easy to do.
