Chapter 0145 My Moon
The next morning.
Sunlight pierced through the clouds, illuminating the long-silent apartment.
In the bathroom mirror.
A familiar yet somewhat unfamiliar face was reflected in the image.
Jiang Ci stood in front of the mirror.
He held a razor in his hand and carefully shaved off the layer of unkempt stubble on his chin.
The foam was washed away by the water, revealing a smooth, sharp jawline.
He washed his hair again.
Blow dry.
Her short hair, which was always messy due to anxiety, was now meticulously styled, revealing her full forehead.
He looked at himself in the mirror.
Although the redness under his eyes was still there, the faint dark circles had not completely faded.
but.
The look in those eyes has changed.
No longer the sinister type who wanted to destroy everything.
It's not the kind of obsessive, insane obsession with gains and losses.
Rather, it was a long-lost, sharp feeling, like a hawk locking onto its prey—
Ambition.
"Full of vigor and high spirits..."
Jiang Ci looked in the mirror and whispered the word Wen Ning had said yesterday.
He twitched the corner of his mouth.
He flashed a confident smile.
"it is good."
"If you want to see it, I'll show you."
……
Nine o'clock in the morning.
Limitless headquarters building.
The entire top-floor office area remained shrouded in a cautious, low-pressure atmosphere.
The employees walked on tiptoe, afraid of making the slightest noise and disturbing the capricious "tyrant" inside.
After all, everyone has witnessed President Jiang's condition over the past month—
They either don't come to the company at all, or when they do, they exude a chilling aura that seems to want to take everyone down with them.
"bite--"
The private elevator doors opened.
The receptionist instinctively tensed up, bracing herself for today's low-pressure atmosphere.
however.
When she looked up, she was completely stunned.
The man who walked out.
He was wearing a perfectly tailored dark blue striped suit.
That was his most stylish "battle outfit".
The white shirt collar was crisp, the tie was neatly tied, and the cufflinks gleamed coldly under the light.
He strode with long legs, his steps brisk and powerful.
That overwhelming aura of elite power is so strong that you dare not look directly at them, yet you can't help but want to submit.
"Good morning, Mr. Jiang!"
The receptionist stammered a greeting.
Jiang Ci paused slightly in his steps.
He turned his head and glanced at the little girl who was usually too scared to look up because of him.
He nodded slightly.
"morning."
even.
His voice also carried a hint of lightness that was barely perceptible.
Receptionist: "!!!"
Good heavens!
Has President Jiang responded to me?
And that look in his eyes... so killer! So cool!
……
Push open the door to the CEO's office.
Zhang Annian and Jia Pengxiu stared blankly at a pile of reports with worried expressions.
Upon hearing the door open, the two reflexively stood up, bracing themselves for a scolding.
"Brother Ci..."
Zhang Annian was just about to report on the tricky bug from yesterday.
"Smack."
A document was thrown on the table.
Jiang Ci walked behind the desk and sat down.
He didn't get angry with a gloomy face as usual.
Instead, he turned on his computer, quickly tapped a few keys, and brought up the company's core data disk.
"Notify all department directors."
He raised his head, his eyes bright and sharp.
"We'll have an all-staff meeting in half an hour."
"what?"
Jia Pengxiu was taken aback. "What...what kind of meeting is this? Are we going to lay off more people?"
No layoffs.
Jiang Ci leaned back in his chair.
He twirled the pen in his hand, a triumphant smile playing on his lips.
"We need to expand."
He pointed to the document.
"This is the latest IPO (listing) sprint plan."
"Overturn the previous rhythm completely."
"We need to speed things up."
"All core business lines have been completely reorganized."
"Negotiations on that overseas acquisition deal that had been stalled will resume tonight."
"besides……"
He glanced at the two people who were still in a daze.
Tell everyone.
"I'm sorry that my personal emotions affected my work in the past."
"But from today onwards..."
"Limitless is serious now."
Zhang Annian and Jia Pengxiu exchanged a glance.
They both saw shock and long-lost ecstasy in each other's eyes.
came back.
Jiang Ci, the one who led them through the night in coding in the university dormitory and vowed to change the world.
Jiang Ci, who spoke eloquently and radiated confidence on the roadshow stage.
That invincible captain.
Finally... I'm back!
"yes!"
The two shouted in unison, so excited they almost saluted.
"We'll arrange it right away!"
……
all day.
The Limitless Building is like a precision machine that has been refueled and is now running at high speed.
In the conference room.
Jiang Ci stood in front of the whiteboard, speaking with great confidence and authority.
He no longer works to vent, but fights for a goal.
His thinking is clear, his decisions are decisive, and every instruction he gives is to the point.
That kind of charm that comes from within.
This left all the executives present speechless.
This is the true business tycoon.
This is the kind of leader they should follow.
But in Jiang Ci's heart...
There was only one driving force behind all these changes he made.
"I don't like you as you are now."
"I like Jiang Ci when he was full of vigor and ambition."
it is good.
Since you like it.
Then I'll stand at the highest point.
I want you to see me shining brightly wherever you go and whatever news you open.
I want you to...
My heart fluttered for you.
……
evening.
sunset.
Jiang Ci finished a long day of intense work.
He was somewhat tired, but his spirits were high.
come back to the office.
He did not rest immediately.
Instead, he walked to a corner of the office, to the display case specifically used to display trophies and certificates of honor.
There are displayed all of Limitless's major awards, as well as photos of him with dignitaries from various countries.
These are all priceless honors.
Jiang Ci opened the cabinet door.
He took out the crystal trophy from the very center and the most prominent position, and casually placed it aside.
then.
He was very careful.
A black, ordinary long-handled umbrella.
It was put in.
That was the umbrella Wen Ning gave him last night.
The umbrella surface still had a few dried water stains.
The umbrella handle seemed to still retain her warmth and a faint jasmine fragrance.
Jiang Ci adjusted the angle of the umbrella.
Place it in the very center.
It's like offering up a rare treasure.
"General Manager Jiang?"
The assistant came in to deliver documents and was so shocked by what he saw that his jaw almost dropped.
Put an umbrella in a multi-million dollar display case?
Is this some kind of new feng shui formation?
Jiang Ci closed the cabinet door.
I looked at the umbrella through the glass.
His eyes were incredibly gentle.
"What are you looking at?"
He turned around and gave his assistant a brief, indifferent glance.
His tone carried a hint of secret boasting.
"can't read?"
He suddenly chuckled softly, his knuckles brushing against the outline of the umbrella reflected in the glass.
"This is my moon."
Special Assistant: "...?"
Jiang Ci did not explain.
He picked up his coat, turned around, and walked out.
Their steps were light and quick.
"get off work."
"I'm going to... bump into someone."
