The profession of a flight attendant appears glamorous to outsiders, but the lowest-level attendants earn around eight to ten thousand a month, and even the senior attendants rarely exceed a salary of twenty or thirty thousand. The average monthly income for flight attendants with several years of experience usually falls between fifteen and twenty-five thousand.

Importantly, in a flight attendant’s standard salary, the "hourly fee" constitutes the bulk, and it’s through constant work without rest or sick leave that they can accumulate a five-digit salary.

Even if they don’t fly for a month and just lay at home every day, they can still receive a salary of forty to fifty thousand per month, not to mention that they are serving a private jet. Even a fool would know that although it’s impossible not to fly for a month, the flying frequency is significantly lower than with an airline...

Is this hiring them for work?

This is obviously like "keeping a mistress"...

So even after confirming the authenticity of the information, Du Jie still had doubts until she inquired further and heard that the financier behind it was named "Zhou Wang."

Like many other flight attendants, Du Jie was thrilled on the spot.

If it’s "King Zhou," even if additional services are required, it didn’t seem impossible... "King Zhou" is a nickname a group of female fans gave Zhou Wang online, inspired by the homophonic resemblance of Zhou Wang’s name to "King Zhou." During the Shang Dynasty, concubines used to call King Zhou this way.

Du Jie managed to appear on the Gulfstream G650 and became part of this temporary crew by using all her means and also buying numerous gifts to grease the wheels...

If she doesn’t take this opportunity to leave a lasting impression on Zhou Wang, she can’t imagine if there will be such a great chance next time, or if she can compete against those younger flirts.

Although Cui Yeqing wanted Zhou Wang to form his own crew quickly, he certainly wouldn’t rush Zhou Wang, so what Du Jie said was actually her testing Zhou Wang’s intentions.

Of course, she was quite bold to directly invoke Cui Yeqing’s name.

If it were before, Zhou Wang might have believed it, but with his current experience, he could see the hint of unease in her downcast eyes at a glance.

However, Zhou Wang didn’t say much more, he just glanced at the name tag on her ample chest, memorized her name, and nodded, "Tell President Cui, I will reply to him as soon as possible."

Noticing Zhou Wang’s gaze linger on her chest for a moment, Du Jie’s heart raced, but seeing Zhou Wang make no further move, she couldn’t brazenly flirt with him and had to give him a sweet smile and leave.

"If you like, you can pretend I don’t exist."

As Zhou Wang stared off at the flight attendant’s back, a cold voice came from behind him.

Although the tone had a hint of displeasure, the voice was crisp and ethereal, with a jade-like texture, just by this enchanting voice, one could assume the owner of the voice must have an extraordinary appearance.

When Zhou Wang turned back to look, it was indeed so: a girl with a high ponytail had rare sword-like eyebrows amongst women, making her eyes particularly bright and spirited, her plain features flawless, vigorous and full of energy.

Her aura was like a sharp beam of light, not only bright but somewhat dazzling.

Hearing the girl’s tone with obvious sarcasm, Zhou Wang couldn’t help but express surprise, "But I wasn’t acknowledging your presence anyway!"

"You..."

The girl got angry instantly and stood up to leave.

"Hey, hey, just kidding, just kidding... How could I possibly be interested in those plain women when there’s such a beautiful woman like you sitting beside me?"

Zhou Wang quickly stopped her, smiling apologetically.

"Then why don’t you dare say ’plain women’ a bit louder?"

The girl obviously wasn’t so easily fooled, casting a glance at the flight attendant who hadn’t gone far, she just sneered.

"I have no enmity with them, why would I insult them?"

Zhou Wang said helplessly, then seriously, "I just saw her back, and suddenly remembered an old acquaintance..."

The girl obviously didn’t believe it, already sneering, "Your old acquaintance, is she also working at that spa on Ao Island, usually wearing such a uniform?"

Hearing this, Zhou Wang didn’t have time to explain that he indeed had an acquaintance named Cheng Yiyi, his expression turned a bit awkward.

The single ponytail girl, clearly unfriendly towards him, was naturally the good friend of his senior, Qu Peining.

Back in Peng City, due to Zhou Wang’s series of antics of listening to people’s thoughts, Qu Peining, who was feeling lost, subconsciously fell into a choice trap—whether to become the so-called "Security Consultant" for Zhou Wang.

She wholly forgot that that morning, waking up in the VIP lounge of the nightclub, she originally just wanted to ask Zhou Wang for an explanation, and then disappear, stay far away from Zhou Wang...

Zhou Wang gave her a week to think about it, then the day before leaving Ao Island for Korea, Zhou Wang proactively contacted her, wanting to ask how she had considered.

Unexpectedly for Zhou Wang, Qu Peining was actually on Ao Island.

At that moment, he felt something bad was going to happen, indeed, as soon as he saw Qu Peining, her first words were full of disappointment:

"Zhou Wang, I know you lust after pretty girls, but why go to such a place... don’t you feel it’s filthy?"

If it was the former, naive Qu Peining, she might not have known what that spa center was for, but after the experience at Magic City Building No. 9 Club and seeing so many adorned girls with varied outfits coming in and out, how could Qu Peining not comprehend what it was all about?

Zhou Wang couldn’t explain; upon hearing that Qu Peining was also on Ao Island, he knew this silly girl, during the lost week, had still followed him through Hong Kong Island and Ao Island.

As for why Gao Xing didn’t remind him, Zhou Wang could understand...

After all, when Qu Peining followed from Magic City, she was already like that. Gao Xing didn’t know the entanglement between the two, he probably thought Zhou Wang already knew.

Though being seen some inappropriate things by Qu Peining, Zhou Wang actually no longer needed her answer.

With her still following him and not leaving, it was no different from "I do."

So Zhou Wang immediately had Qi Jiayi draft a contract template, but Qu Peining obviously was still in a bit of a huff, refused to agree, only said she hadn’t made up her mind yet.

Zhou Wang was adept at giving people a way out, immediately saying, "Even after signing the contract there’s a month’s probationary period, if you find it unsuitable, you can completely reject me then... "

Indeed, hearing Zhou Wang say this, while still showing reluctance on her face, Qu Peining tacitly agreed.

Hence, on December 10th, the two took a private jet to Korea together.

Alongside them besides Cui Min’er, were Gao Xing, Xiao Wang, and other members of the security team, as well as Qi Jiayi’s assistant, Sura.

Sura tagged along partly to coordinate with the foreign legal team and also to facilitate translation for Zhou Wang in Cui Min’er’s absence... Even though just an assistant to Qi Jiayi, Sura is proficient in five languages, including Korean.

"That day was also a misunderstanding, a senior from my university happened to be working at that place..."

"Ha, you surely know many people."

Qu Peining sneered, said, flicked away Zhou Wang’s hand, and headed to the restroom.

Zhou Wang did not forcefully pursue to explain, after all, he understood that Qu Peining wasn’t really angry about him "peeking" at the flight attendant, but because she felt she clumsily agreed again to be Zhou Wang’s bodyguard for cheap, feeling disappointed with herself...

Anyway, even considering the probationary period alone, there’s still a month, plenty of time to placate her slowly.

Zhou Wang put down the cigar, picked out a Lucky Strike, lifted his eyes to the window, glancing across the blue sea, the silhouette of the Peninsula already faintly visible...
