"You specially acquired a clubhouse for a business banquet?"
Huang Qing and Ye Wei both showed faces of shock.
Although they knew Yang Hao was a wealthy man, they had not expected him to be so bold.
Of course, Yang Hao's so-called business banquet was just a casual excuse. Otherwise, it would seem a bit abrupt for someone who knew nothing about clubhouses to suddenly acquire one.
"Which clubhouse did Mr. Yang acquire?"
Huang Qing asked curiously. She was familiar with all the clubhouses in Jiangcheng that had a name because her family's former business involved them.
"Haojue Club," Yang Hao replied.
"Eh?"
"Haojue??"
Huang Qing opened her mouth in surprise, her face a picture of shock.
Ye Wei, standing beside her, was also stunned, looking at Yang Hao with an air of disbelief.
The reason both of them wore such expressions was not because the Haojue Club was very famous in Jiangcheng, but because the Huang Family had once been the major shareholder of Haojue.
Later, when Huang Qing's father ran into business troubles, the family had to sell off most of their assets to pay off debts, including 60% of their shares in Haojue.
Before that, Huang Qing was the general manager of Haojue Club, and Ye Wei had led the technicians there.
So now that Yang Hao said he had acquired Haojue Club, it was natural for both of them to be utterly shocked.
"What's wrong?"
"Is there a problem with Haojue Club?"
Seeing their shocked expressions, Yang Hao unconsciously frowned. He could tell that their reaction was definitely more than just surprise.
"Nothing."
"It's just that Haojue Club is quite large, with total investments exceeding two hundred million!"
"Did Mr. Yang acquire a portion of the shares?"
Huang Qing naturally wouldn't bring up her family's issues directly, so she chose a different topic.
"It's a complete acquisition," Yang Hao replied.
"A complete acquisition?"
"Mr. Yang really goes all out!"
Ye Wei couldn't help but express her amazement.
Yang Hao smiled and waved his hand, then looked at Huang Qing, "Are you still interested in managing a club? Or do you have any reliable candidates to recommend?"
"Of course, I'm interested!"
Huang Qing readily agreed, "Shall we go over now?"
"We can!"
"I was just about to go over for the handover," Yang Hao nodded.
"Great!"
"Then please wait for me in the lobby, Mr. Yang, I need to change my clothes,"
Huang Qing pointed to a wardrobe in the corner of the office.
"OK!"
Yang Hao responded and then left Huang Qing's office.
"Qing, does Mr. Yang really want to pursue you?"
"To think he bought Haojue just like that!"
Once Yang Hao left, Ye Wei immediately leaned in close to Huang Qing and whispered,
"From his reaction just now, he probably doesn't know about our family's history with Haojue."
Huang Qing shook her head slightly.
"But this is too much of a coincidence!"
"Maybe he did it on purpose. Those older men are very cunning!"
Ye Wei didn't believe that Yang Hao was unaware, then she teasingly said with a grin, "Qing, I think Mr. Yang is quite a catch. There are not many wealthy men of his age in the circle. Besides, Mr. Yang is in good shape; just thinking about it makes my mouth water."
"Is that really saliva!" Read new chapters at m_v-l'e|-NovelFire.net
Huang Qing gave her a look of disdain, then instructed, "Go out and accompany him. I need to dress up a bit for today's return!"
"Right, you definitely should dress up well!"
"Let Zhang Ying, that old woman, see that our Qing is back!"
Ye Wei gave a thumbs-up gesture and then sashayed off to the lobby to find Yang Hao.
This woman's greatest wish now was to throw herself at the imposing and energetic Mr. Yang, but the 'Fiery Eyes' Yang Hao simply didn't give her a chance. No matter how hard she tried, Mr. Yang just showed no response.
Just as this artificial beauty was sighing in disappointment, Huang Qing, now changed, appeared in the lobby.

Yang Hao glanced over instinctively and was taken aback.
Miss Color used to wear attire like leather jackets and pants, giving off a cool and unapproachable vibe.
But now, Miss Color had switched to a very feminine and alluring white strappy dress, with a body-hugging design that accentuated her figure. The subtly revealing style made it difficult for anyone to look away once they glanced at her.
Yang Hao really didn't expect this Miss Color to have such a charming side.
It's true what they say, "Clothes make the man, and saddles make the horse."
However, he was a bit puzzled, why Huang Qing would dress like this to hand over the work with him.
"Qing, who are you trying to charm to death!"
Ye Wei teased with a smile.
She, of course, had seen Huang Qing dressed like this before, but now she was saying it for Yang Hao's benefit.
Huang Qing ignored her frivolous bestie and walked up to Yang Hao, "Yang, whether you know the truth or not, I still want to thank you."
"Huh?"
"Thank what?"
Yang Hao looked confused.
"Yang, your acting skills are really too good!"
"If you want to hit on Qing, just say it, it's all negotiable, isn't it?"
Ye Wei hooked her arm around Yang Hao's, rubbing him with her half-sphere on his arm.
Still utterly at sea, Yang Hao glanced at Ye Wei, who resorted to using her chest at the drop of a hat, "Please enlighten me, Miss Wei."
"What Miss Wei!"
"Yang, I'm only 28 this year."
Ye Wei playfully gave Yang Hao a stern look.
"It's just a nickname, don't sweat the small stuff."
Yang Hao waved his hand with a smile.
"Our family used to be the majority shareholder of the Haojue Club."
At this point, Huang Qing took the initiative to speak.
"Huh?"
"There's that connection too?"
Yang Hao looked at Huang Qing, quite surprised. He knew that Miss Color's family seemed to have encountered some difficulties, as she had mentioned wanting to liquidate when she sold the coffee shop.
He guessed that the shares in the Haojue Club must have been sold because of her family's issues.
"Yang, you don't know, Qing used to be the general manager of the Haojue Club, and I worked there too. After the shares were sold, we withdrew."
"The current general manager of the Haojue Club was our good sister back then. We agreed to stick together whatever happened, but she stayed with Haojue..."
With just a few words from Ye Wei, the relationship between Huang Qing and the Haojue Club, as well as the falling-out with the current manager of Haojue, was roughly laid out.
"Then let's go." Sёarch* The NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Let's meet your old good sister."
Yang Hao shrugged his shoulders. Although he had not fully understood their past, his ability to judge people told him that Huang Qing was the kind of upright "big sister" type, who likely wouldn't get involved in sordid affairs.
Moreover, Miss Color had a big vision. Someone like her usually wouldn't fuss too much with a good sister. But it was precisely because of her forthright and relaxed nature, sometimes she was easily backstabbed.
Today, Yang Hao had driven the Wenjie M9, and Huang Qing, without bringing her car, got directly into the front passenger seat.
"This car has really spacious room in the back, enough for doing anything..."
Ye Wei, sitting in the back, teased with a chuckle.
Yang Hao had gotten used to this man-made beauty's way of speaking. He set the destination, and then directly enabled the intelligent driving system.
"I've always heard that Wenjie's intelligent driving is amazing, and I didn't expect it could really drive itself!"
Huang Qing was experiencing Wenjie's car for the first time and, after the car had been driving smoothly for a while, she couldn't help but comment.
"It is quite useful, hassle-free to operate."
These past few days, Yang Hao went out driving this Wenjie M9. It was truly comfortable for commuting, but it didn't have much prestige since not many people recognized it yet.
"If it can drive itself, the driver could even move to the backseat. I've never tried playing poker while on the move!"
Ye Wei's angle of thought was different from ordinary people. Others realized the intelligence of the driving system.
She was thinking that such an impressive intelligent driving system should be put to use...
At first, Yang Hao found it ridiculous and then, damn it, he somewhat wanted to try it!
This woman, she's poisonous.
"Weiwei, can't you think of anything serious?"
Huang Qing, Miss Color, was rendered speechless by Ye Wei. If it were just the two of them chatting privately, it wouldn't matter, but after all, there was a man present.
"What I'm thinking is serious!"
"Isn't life just about two things?"
Ye Wei shrugged her shoulders.
"Which two things?"
Yang Hao played along without missing a beat.
"Three meals a day!"
"Right, Yang?" Ye Wei asked with a grin.
