Gorgeous system upgrade

“I’ll go with you and see what kind of business you’re planning to discuss.”

Ivanka smiled brightly, sending Mr. Chen several suggestive glances.

“Of course, I won’t interfere with Mr. Chen’s personal conduct. I’m just going as a partner to gain some experience. Should be no problem, right?”

“Of course, no problem. Since I’ve chosen to cooperate with you, I have complete trust in you.”

Catherine and Chieko stayed behind, taking their legal team to discuss details with Xu Wanying.

Ivanka’s initiative to accompany Chen Dong on a business trip to the Demon Capital naturally made her extremely happy.

It seemed Chen Dong didn’t have much guard against her, and the chances of her seizing the Dongsheng Group and making Chen Dong her own had unknowingly increased by several folds.

On the Jinghai Aviation tarmac, a Gulfstream private jet was preparing for takeoff.

Chen Dong, accompanied by the Gu Lei Brothers and the beautiful older sister Ivanka, sat on the plane. Bai Shaolong’s gaze occasionally swept across Ivanka’s face.

He didn’t believe this beautiful woman was merely Chen Dong’s business partner; there must be something going on between them!

Dongzi was indeed impressive; he even casually found a foreign woman, and she seemed quite satisfied.

Bai Shaolong had certainly experienced such tastes himself, but he knew that Oriental men often felt a bit insecure when facing such women. However, Chen Dong clearly didn’t have this problem.

He was indeed a man of means, a man like a donkey was truly extraordinary.

“Dongzi, how about this private jet? It’s only 80 million usd, plus customs duties and so on, it’s about 700 million Dragon Kingdom currency. Why not get one to play with?”

Several beautiful flight attendants and the Gu Lei Brothers couldn’t help but twitch their eyelids. “Only 700 million!” Could he speak like a normal person?

“Sounds good. After the Shen Family matter is settled, I’ll find someone to help me order one to try out.”

“Haha, I knew you weren’t short on money. Get one with high specifications then; it’s just a bit more money. I heard the best configuration can sell for 120 million usd, which is about 1 billion Dragon Kingdom currency.”

“No problem. When I buy it, I’ll definitely invite you over to experience it.”

“I really envy you, Dongzi. Unlike me, I have to borrow from my dad just to take a private jet.”

Bai Shaolong shook his head and sighed, looking like a pauper.

“Dongzi, no shame in admitting it. When I first asked my dad to borrow this plane, he wasn’t happy, thinking I was going to find young models again.

Later, when he heard it was to pick you up to discuss business in the Demon Capital, he immediately brightened up. You wouldn’t believe how quickly his face changed. I’m starting to wonder if you’re Old Bai’s illegitimate son…”

“Get lost.” Chen Dong rolled his eyes. Clearly, this guy had often used his dad’s plane to attend various model auditions, probably corrupting countless young models. Otherwise, why would his dad not think of other things?

Jinghai is not far from the Demon Capital; the flight took less than an hour.

Bai Shaolong didn’t bring many people. He was mainly there to enjoy himself, and bringing too many people was troublesome.

Upon exiting Demon Capital Hongqiao Airport, a Rolls-Royce Phantom and a Mercedes-Benz Maybach were parked by the roadside.

“Are you Mr. Chen Dong and Mr. Bai Shaolong? I am Gui Xiang, the private butler from Hilton International Hotel.”

A beautiful woman in a professional OL suit, exuding an older sister vibe, wearing the unique Hilton Hotel uniform, walked towards Chen Dong and the others with a professional smile, greeting them warmly.

“That’s us. Hello, Miss Gui.”

Chen Dong observed the woman before him with a learning mindset, acknowledging that Dongsheng International Hotel indeed needed to learn from her.

Chen Dong and Bai Shaolong got into the back seat of the Rolls-Royce, with Gui Xiang in the front passenger seat.

Ivanka pouted and got into the front passenger seat of the Maybach, while the Gu Lei Brothers sat in the back.

At 2:30 PM, the group of five enjoyed a luxurious Chinese lunch at the hotel.

Bai Shaolong and Chen Dong each booked a suite, priced at 66,000, indicating that the Demon Capital’s standard was significantly higher than Jinghai’s.

The Gu Lei Brothers were given a standard luxury twin room, which still cost nearly ten thousand a night.

As for Ivanka, she unhesitatingly followed Chen Dong into his suite.

Anyway, they were meeting Wang Shoufu’s son, Wang Congcong, for dinner to discuss business.

It was a perfect afternoon, and Chen Dong was full of vigor.

Although he had been traveling for a while, Chen Dong had gotten plenty of rest.

With his energy replenished, he naturally desired a beautiful journey.

In ancient times, people loved to write essays to commemorate reaching the summit of treacherous mountains, like Wang Anshi, who wrote an essay after visiting Mount Hua and exploring a cave, which even made it into high school textbooks.

At the time, Chen Dong didn’t quite understand it, but as he experienced more, he felt it was truly necessary.

The ruggedness of Mount Baochan and the winding depths of its caves must be unique, otherwise, why would Wang Anshi write “A Journey to Mount Baochan” and not something like “A Journey to Mount Laogong”?

It’s like Mount Tai; ascending the peak of the Five Great Mountains, that heroic spirit would surely arise naturally.

Standing on the peak, watching the distant glow of the sunset pierce through the clouds, and weary birds returning to their nests.

The ancient poem describes it thus:

Clouds rise from the surging chest; returning birds enter the eyes’ limits!

One must ascend to the highest peak, to see all mountains as small.

Although Duke Du never actually ascended Mount Tai, he merely glanced at it from the foot of the mountain and was moved to write.

Chen Dong’s understanding of these poetic lines was now even more profound…

After all, he had personally stood on the summit of Mount Tai, looking down on all living things, and experienced that genuine heroism and the twists and turns.

This journey was arduous, the peaks treacherous, the paths winding, and the climbing process was full of hardship yet also joy, especially the sense of accomplishment after reaching the summit, which was indescribable.

It was like a high school student who pondered for a week and finally solved an Olympiad problem; that heartfelt joy was impossible to hide…

“System is upgrading… Host upgrade successful!”

“Congratulations, Host! The system has successfully found the most suitable sub-plane for the Host among countless sub-planes in the universe, and has successfully incorporated the excellent achievements of that sub-plane into the system’s reward pool!”

Sub-plane? What was that? Chen Dong heard this strange term from the system for the first time.

“Reminder to Host: Blue Star, where the Host resides, is the lowest-level lower plane in the universe. Above it is a higher-level sub-plane. This time, the system has successfully incorporated the advanced achievements obtained from the Oli Ge sub-plane into the system’s reward pool, to escort the Host in becoming Blue Star’s super invincible scumbag boss!”
