Guangzhou.

In the afternoon, the wind is clear.

The heart of the city is bustling.

On the side of Huacheng Square, there are many high-rise buildings.

The New Century Building stands majestically and towers into the sky.

In the New World Capital Company, which is as beautiful as a "mirror of the sky", in front of a sky-blue solid wood door, Xu Xincheng stood dumbfounded, looking at the nameplate that read "Chairman's Office" in astonishment......

During this time, he made four guesses about Lucy's identity and background, as well as her position at the company.

When he first met Lucy at the Red Rose Café, judging by her high-end fashion and accessories, he guessed that she was a lady, and that she must be very, very well-off.

The second time he met Lucy, she said that she was a VC, and he guessed that she should be a new VC and a senior employee of a well-known investment company.

The third time he met Lucy, that is, last Tuesday, judging from the situation when she was traveling with four other foreign company executives, he guessed that she should be an executive of this company, a senior manager or something, in fact, he thought that she could also be a senior manager, deputy general manager or something, but it seemed a little unreasonable for her to become a senior executive of an investment company at such a young age, so he ruled out this possibility.

The fourth time I met Lucy, that is, last Sunday, she drove a Tesla white version of the supercar Roadster and invited him to the super high-end club in Baiyun Mountain for tea and chat. Judging from the situation at the time, it is much more likely that Lucy is a top executive of this investment company. He guessed at the time that maybe she was the daughter of a director or major shareholder of the company, so it made sense that she had become a senior at such a young age.

Xu Xincheng's previous four guesses are a bit far from the "chairman" he sees now, and it seems that in order to adjust this huge gap, his brain started up quickly and worked at high speed.

He quickly flashed through his mind all the scenes from the few times he met Lucy, but the changes between all the scenarios were so great that each situation contained so much information that his mind couldn't handle it at all, and there was an emergency situation of severe information overload, causing his head to feel numb and swollen.

In order to provide more blood and energy to the brain, the heart enters an emergency state, the heartbeat increases dramatically, and the breathing also accelerates and deepens, but the blood is still not enough, so the brain mobilizes blood from other parts of the body to support the overloaded brain, and as a result, other parts of the body also have problems, the throat becomes unbearably dry, and the hands and feet become numb and weak.

The above process happened in about three seconds, and it seemed that after the emergency response just now, his brain finally adjusted, and he came to his senses again.

The beautiful woman at the front desk knocked on the door twice, waited for a while, then pushed open the door, made a gesture of please, and said politely: "Mr. Xu, please come in!"

He quickly took a deep breath secretly, pretended to thank her calmly, lifted his somewhat paralyzed legs, and walked in with small steps.

The moment he stepped through the door, he was greeted by an intoxicating aroma and a beautiful new world.

It is a 600-square-metre ultra-luxury office with a bar, a lounge, an office area, and a separate oval meeting room of at least 200 square metres separated by glass walls.

The east and south walls of the office are fully transparent and floor-to-ceiling glass windows, the east window is the beautiful view of Huacheng Square, the south window is the beautiful scenery of the Pearl River, and from here you can clearly see the Canton Tower located on the south bank of the Pearl River.

The design of the office continues the blue and white natural style outside, and the interior decoration and decoration are two or three grades higher than the outside. The most eye-catching thing here is the pure white grand piano placed between the lounge area and the office area, which is a top-of-the-line Steinway piano, it is like a pure white orchid blooming, holy and elegant.

There are more than 20 places in the whole office with different colors and varieties of orchid pots, the shape of the pots is different, but the color is unified, the material is also unified, all are as smooth as white jade high-grade bone china. As for the varieties of orchids, he knew too little about orchids, and could not distinguish the specific varieties, but only red, light red, pink, white, golden yellow, light yellow, green, light green, etc., the shape of the flowers is unique and novel, he has never seen before, presumably all the orchids here are very precious varieties.

The most amazing thing is the floral scent, the intoxicating fragrance that fills the office must be wafting from these orchids.

Xu Xincheng thought to himself: "This place is so beautiful that it doesn't look like an office at all, if the outside is the 'Sky Mirror', then this is where the angels who created the 'Sky Mirror' live, and this is the 'Angel Realm'." ”

Lucy sits in a sky blue office chair, in front of her is an all-glass desk about 8 meters long, and there are 6 computer monitors at least 32 inches on the desktop, the monitor is very novel and special, ultra-thin streamlined shape, perfect curved surface, white silver back panel, very futuristic sci-fi feeling. She was wearing wireless headphones and was talking to the six monitors, and it seemed that she was still in a meeting.

Behind Lucy's desk is a huge sky-blue wall, about 5 meters high and 20 meters wide, with many beautiful landscape paintings hanging on the wall, the sea at the rising sun, the lush woods, and the vibrant grassland......

There are a lot of white shelves in the shape of white clouds hanging on the wall, and there are many exquisite sculptures and works of art on the shelves, including pottery, glass, and jade, and the materials are different, but their shapes are very uniform, all of them are animals, there are cheerful jumping sika deer, there are horses with their heads raised and their manes raised, there are pigeons with wings spread and gliding, and there are elegant and noble white swans......

Among all the ornaments, there is a group of particularly eye-catching, that is the three countdown hourglasses, the hourglass is made of fully transparent crystal glass, the upper and lower two glass containers are shaped like two hot air balloons with openings against each other, the lower container contains pure blue fine sand, the three hourglasses are of different sizes, from left to right, the largest one is about 20 centimeters high, the middle one is about 16 centimeters high, and the smallest one is about 13 centimeters high.

At this time, Lucy saw him, smiled and nodded at him, greeted him with her big beautiful eyes, and said hello to him.

He hurriedly squeezed out a smile from his face that was a little frozen in surprise, and nodded slightly.

"Lady Lucy is still in a meeting, please wait a little while here. The beautiful woman at the front desk whispered and invited him to the relaxation area and sat down on a blue leather sofa.

In front of the sofa was an all-glass coffee table with several bottles of mineral water in glass, she took one out of it, put it in front of him with both hands, whispered "please drink water", and then quietly left the office and closed the door casually.

Xu Xincheng looked at the Canton Tower not far away, the height here should be 450 meters, and the height of the sightseeing platform at the top of the Canton Tower is about the same, he imagined that Lucy works in an office with such a high height and such a wide field of vision every day, she looks at the world, the height and vision of all things in the world, and it must be very different from ordinary people.

He secretly felt in his heart, "Oh my God! This is a completely different world, a higher, more beautiful, bigger world, a new world. ”
