Transmigrating Before The Crazy Beauty Scum A Loses Control - Chapter 41

The morning sun awakens all things.

Gentle rays of light pierce through the clouds and the window glass, shapeless, yet they outline the shape of the window frame on the floor.

But the brightness is not confined within the window frame.

The stimulating morning sunlight makes Luan Yenan blink lightly, and in her drowsiness, she feels as if she is resting on a pure white cloud.

Her entire body is enveloped in a soft sensation.

This is a rare perfect sleep, with spirit and strength filling her body, even her usually unruly nape is exceptionally calm.

Luan Yenan moves her hand slightly.

She is still holding someone in her arms.

Unknowingly, in her sleep, she had pulled Zuo Baixuan, like a soft white cloud, into her embrace.

She glances at the top of Zuo Baixuan’s head, curls a strand of her hair with her fingers, and presses down a stray lock.

“Awake?”

A warm, soft breath from the person in her arms lands on Luan Yenan’s collarbone, tickling her.

Zuo Baixuan’s voice is neither light nor heavy, her tone indiscernible, but her consciousness is clear. She might have woken up earlier than Luan Yenan, holding her breath since Luan Yenan woke up, and only now can’t help but speak.

Luan Yenan’s breath flows through her nostrils, a smile curling up at the corner of her mouth.

Zuo Baixuan woke up earlier but didn’t break free from her embrace. Luan Yenan is curious about what expression Zuo Baixuan will have after everything that happened yesterday.

Luan Yenan releases her hold, letting the person in her arms free.

She looks down at her with a direct smile: “Good morning, Little Xuan.”

The smile is bright, untainted, shining like a ray of sunlight, a completely different state from the night before.

It’s as if the charming, enchanting Luan Yenan from last night, like a web, a trap that one couldn’t escape from, was just an illusion belonging to the night.

But Zuo Baixuan carefully examines Luan Yenan’s expression and finally finds a flaw.

The slight gap in her squinting eyes reveals a hint of cunning.

A fox is still a fox, and Luan Yenan is naturally still Luan Yenan. How could she change because of the difference between morning and night?

One must not let their guard down because of a soft embrace at the moment of waking, nor be momentarily bewitched like last night.

Zuo Baixuan closes her eyes, and when she opens them again, she wears a sweet smile: “Good morning, A’Nan. It’s getting late, we should get up.”

Luan Yenan watches as Zuo Baixuan switches from a state of surprise to one of sweetness. Like any ordinary couple waking up in the morning, greeting their partner, the person they love most.

As if the kiss last night, which had no audience and belonged only to them, was just a dream.

Or perhaps treating that sweet kiss as the most ordinary daily occurrence.

Zuo Baixuan’s smile dazzles Luan Yenan.

Her dimples are deep, brewing intoxicating wine.

This smile, like the sweet scent of vanilla pheromones, makes one want to drink more.

Zuo Baixuan, dressed conservatively in her pajamas, reminds Luan Yenan of her appearance last night with a slanted shoulder, causing her throat to tremble.

She takes a deep breath to calm down.

“It’s still early, you don’t have to get up earlier than you usually do for school, do you?” As she speaks, Luan Yenan naturally reaches out to pull Zuo Baixuan back into her arms.

But Zuo Baixuan, seeing Luan Yenan’s movement, knows what she’s about to do. With a smooth motion, she sits up and even smoothly ties up her long hair, ready to go to the bathroom to wash up: “It’s not early. Didn’t mommy say yesterday that mom is taking us to the company today? So today is a workday.”

Luan Yenan watches Zuo Baixuan’s natural movements, feeling as if they spend every morning like this.

Her gaze follows Zuo Baixuan, as she turns over and lies on her side on the bed, propping her head up with her hand: “But after all, mom is the boss, she has the authority, she doesn’t need to clock in for work.”

“Being the boss and needing to clock in aren’t necessarily related, right? Clearly…” Zuo Baixuan turns back, wanting to reiterate what she heard yesterday, but sees Luan Yenan lying on her side, squinting with a smile.

Luan Yenan seems to be feigning sleep, but with a smile.

The silk pajamas reflect the morning light, dazzling, even her fair skin glows.

Her legs are crossed.

Zuo Baixuan can’t look further down, unnaturally averting her eyes, once again feeling the illusion of who is taking advantage of whom.

She steadies her tone: “Anyway, since your grandfather is back now, and your mom wants to take you to the company, she must have her reasons. Shouldn’t you cooperate a bit?”

“Understood, I’ll cooperate. You go ahead and wash up. I’ll rest a bit more.” As Luan Yenan speaks, she pulls the thin quilt over herself, but her eyes still watch Zuo Baixuan.

Until she sees the little white rabbit, with an inexplicable blush, hop into the bathroom and lock the door.

Only then does Luan Yenan raise an eyebrow, sit up, and look at herself in the dressing mirror.

She remembers when she first ran away from the mountains, she was very thin, and clothes from her peers always looked like they were stolen, not fitting well.

In the not-so-tasty cafeteria, she could always eat half a portion more than others, growing quickly.

While other children played after eating, sleeping, and studying, she chose to exercise and read.

She didn’t stay in the orphanage for long before she became fair, tall, and very elegant.

Back in the mountains, the man would only beat her mother, calling her a money-loser but wouldn’t hit her. Because the man once said, “Although she’s a money-loser, she’s a beauty, can fetch a good price.”

Luan Yenan indeed grew into a beauty.

Among the people coming to adopt children from the orphanage, nine out of ten would take an extra look at her.

Including many affluent young couples from abroad.

But Luan Yenan didn’t want to be adopted.

She would only have one mother in this lifetime, no father.

She acted very coldly in front of potential adopters but quickly learned how to help with various tasks in the orphanage. As she grew older, she even took on financial work.

Later, she used computers to help with documentation.

She became the most indispensable person in the orphanage.

But even then, many people wanted to adopt her when they came.

From that time, Luan Yenan knew that she was beautiful, very beautiful, possibly stunning.

Beautiful people naturally have advantages in society, but they also see more filth and dirt because of their beauty.

When she had the strength, she even hated this troublesome beauty.

Until later, her notorious reputation overshadowed her beauty, and she was satisfied.

As for now.

She is quite pleased that her beauty can sway Zuo Baixuan.

Luan Yenan raises the corner of her mouth at the mirror, finding the most attractive angle.

…

While Zuo Baixuan is washing up in the bathroom, she also clears her mind, reminding herself not to forget her purpose just because Luan Yenan is beautiful.

She quickly changes her clothes, ready to hurry Luan Yenan in to change as well.

But as soon as she opens the door, she sees Luan Yenan, dressed in a white shirt paired with light-colored casual trousers, stepping into a pair of high heels. Her ankles strain to form a beautiful shape.

Luan Yenan holds a glass of milk, taking a small sip, then glances at the bed: “You’re right, mom needs us to be on time for work. She just came to hurry us. This set is prepared for you.”

A set of light pink women’s shirt and dark casual trousers, paired with a pair of matching high heels, is neatly placed aside.

Clearly prepared specifically for the two of them.

Zuo Baixuan looks at Luan Yenan.

Did she just change her clothes standing in the bedroom like that?

What if I had come out of the bathroom a step earlier?

What if Zuo Baixuan had come out of the bathroom a step earlier?

Luan Yenan raises the corner of her mouth, but unfortunately, there is no what if.

If there were, the flustered little white rabbit might have been startled, then hurriedly tried to run back to the bathroom, possibly even bumping into the bathroom door in her panic, her cheeks flushing red, preemptively accusing her of why she was changing clothes in the bedroom.

What a pity, Luan Yenan changed at a normal speed but didn’t get to enjoy such an interesting scenario.

Zuo Baixuan, however, holds back, asking nothing, picks up her set of clothes, and returns to the bathroom, coming out shortly after changing.

Luan Yenan is sitting on the edge of the bed, her slender legs crossed in the air.

Making Zuo Baixuan’s heart sway along.

Luan Yenan is also wearing a pair of glasses, holding a folder, reading documents.

Looking quite the part of a young CEO.

It’s not the first time Zuo Baixuan has seen her wearing glasses.

During school group meetings, working together in the office coding, Luan Yenan occasionally wears them.

The first time she saw her wearing glasses, it stunned everyone.

With glasses, Luan Yenan’s facial lines and light effects change, less sharp, more gentle and intellectual.

Jiang Lingdan even once flamboyantly remarked that if it weren’t for the fact that everyone knew Luan Yenan and Zuo Baixuan were married, many would have likely gone to express their affections and confess to Luan Yenan.

Zuo Baixuan stared at Luan Yenan’s profile for a long time, agreeing with Jiang Lingdan’s sentiment.

Without looking up, Luan Yenan asked while reading the documents, “Shall we have breakfast in the room or go downstairs? Mom said we have half an hour before we need to leave.”

“Didn’t you already eat?” Zuo Baixuan looked at the empty cup on the table.

“That was just to quench my thirst. Of course, breakfast is to be had together with you.” Luan Yenan replied, finishing the last line of the document and turning to look at Zuo Baixuan.

Earlier, when she saw the pink shirt sent for Zuo Baixuan, Luan Yenan had hesitated.

Now, she just wanted to say that the stylist, being from the fashion circle, indeed had a better eye for matching outfits than she did.

It exceeded her imagination.

Zuo Baixuan, wearing the pink shirt with its lace, didn’t look tacky at all; instead, it made her skin appear even more delicate.

Paired with dark casual trousers and high heels, it didn’t look old-fashioned but rather youthful and playful, yet still maintaining a serious and professional atmosphere.

“This outfit looks great.” Luan Yenan complimented.

Zuo Baixuan pursed her lips, not holding back her smile, and walked over to Luan Yenan, linking arms with her: “You look great too. Let’s go, let’s head downstairs for breakfast.”

Luan Yenan stood up with Zuo Baixuan’s pull, and as they passed the table, she took off her glasses and handed the folder to Zuo Baixuan: “Mom said our startup has caught the interest of some company executives. She wants me to use this opportunity to make an appearance at the company to dispel some of the previous bad rumors. If you’re interested in the documents, you can take a look.”

“Isn’t this internal confidential information? Just showing it to me like that?” Zuo Baixuan didn’t rush to open it, somewhat curious.

“Do you think they would show internal confidential information to me?” Luan Yenan retorted.

“That’s true.” Zuo Baixuan agreed with Luan Yenan’s self-deprecating remark.

Luan Yenan chuckled lightly and went downstairs with her.

Seeing Luan Yenan come down, Luan Muyin raised her head: “They think the ‘blockchain’ technology provided by ‘Blockcoin’ can solve the problems we encountered back then. What do you think?”

“Hmm, I already have some ideas. After breakfast, we’ll head to the company.” Luan Yenan confidently replied.

Luan Muyin looked at Luan Yenan, as if seeing a shrewd capitalist ready to take a big bite out of a large cake.

…

“Psst, I heard Miss Luan is coming to the company today.”

“What the hell? She dares to come back, isn’t she afraid those higher-ups will tear her apart?”

“Yeah, it’s fine for us, fewer orders mean less overtime, and the bonuses haven’t changed much, so whatever. But those higher-ups waiting for stock dividends, their losses are more than just a little, right?”

“Hey, I heard old Mr. Luan is bringing his grandson back this time. The battle between wealthy families is about to unfold, and Luan Yenan has no choice but to come and make an appearance.”

“Do they think the upper management is stupid? She thinks she can just show up and make an impression? Even Mr. Luan’s face wouldn’t help, right?”

“Then you’re out of the loop. Luan Yenan is going to dazzle everyone this time; she’s been stirring up quite a bit lately.”

“I know about the racetrack incident.”

“Hmph, the racetrack incident is nothing. The recent ‘Blockcoin’ that shook the IT world is the big deal!”

“What, what? Tell me more, what’s this gossip?”

“Ahem!”

Whispers filled the company.

Until someone at the elevator signaled, and everyone held their breath in unison.

They saw the unsmiling Luan Muyin accompanied by two beauties.

One was a tall, cold-eyed beauty, just a glance at her sharp, narrow eyes exuded the dangerous aura of a predator.

The other, slightly smaller beauty by her side, wore a gentle smile, like a harmless herbivore, but standing in the shadow of danger, she also commanded respect.

After the three entered the CEO’s private elevator directly to the top-floor conference room, the crowd’s breathing gradually returned.

Were those the legendary Miss Luan and her wife? So elegant.

This thought lingered, and everyone completely forgot the topic they were just discussing.

The CEO’s private elevator arrived at the conference room.

The room was filled with high-ranking officials attending today’s meeting.

Most of them had been backstabbed by the original host, so they were skeptical about the news that “Luan Yenan is related to Blockcoin.”

In their view, Luan Yenan was at most a puppet announced by “Huanyu” to take the fall.

After all, behind this puppet was the Luan family.

But no matter what, if they wanted to quickly obtain the core technology behind “blockchain” and communicate with the core figures, they had to go through Luan Yenan first.

This led to the agreement reached after repeated discussions with Luan Muyin.

They were willing to leave a seat for Luan Yenan after Luan Lizheng brought Luan Yecha back, but the premise was that Luan Yenan had to provide assistance to their current project; otherwise, it would be hard to turn the page on past events.

Now, sitting in the conference room, they glared at the door, ready to pin Luan Yenan with their gaze the moment she entered.

Click, click, click.

The powerful rhythm of high heels steadily approached the conference room door.

Luan Yenan, dressed neatly and refreshingly, stood in the sight of everyone.

The hostile gazes of all immediately diminished, replaced by admiration.

When a person changes their established image, the stereotypes associated with that image also weaken.

Just this appropriate outfit made most people in the conference room feel much more comfortable.

Not to mention Luan Yenan’s expression of neither humility nor arrogance, making people momentarily doubt whether the person they were seeing now was the same one who had backstabbed them before.

Luan Muyin walked behind Luan Yenan, as Luan Yenan had requested, and she agreed.

After entering, she got straight to the point: “Yenan has reviewed the documents we provided. She has requested fifteen minutes for a self-presentation and has prepared a PPT for us.”

Everyone was slightly stunned.

Even the last trace of hostility turned into confusion.

The transaction requirements discussed just last night, the documents shown to Luan Yenan this morning, and now there’s a PPT ready for presentation?

Are you kidding?

But Luan Yenan was just openly logging into a website on the projector in front of everyone.

After logging in with her username and password, a large number of folders appeared on the webpage.

The folder was named using an encryption method processed by Luan Yenan.

However, the moment she opened the folder and downloaded a PPT from a webpage to her computer,

everyone in the meeting room was instantly thrown into a brainstorming frenzy.

They clearly realized that besides the “blockchain” technology related to “cryptocurrency” Luan Yenan might have something even more impressive in her hands.

Perhaps something that had once appeared in their minds but had not yet taken shape.

Taking advantage of the moment while the PPT was still downloading, Luan Yenan looked up at the people in the meeting room, whose pupils were shaking with shock, and raised the corner of her mouth.

Good, this was the effect she wanted.

Letting these smart people realize the technology themselves was much more effective than forcing an explanation.

Zuo Baixuan followed Luan Muyin and sat down at the conference table.

She also didn’t expect that Luan Yenan didn’t bring any storage devices like a USB drive or hard drive, coming to the meeting room empty-handed, yet managed to conjure up a PPT out of thin air using a webpage.

At that moment, several lines of code flashed through her mind, tasks from her benefactor.

The functions corresponding to those tasks made Zuo Baixuan frown at the projector, recalling the documents Luan Yenan had handed her that morning.

The content in the documents wasn’t complicated; it was a publicly disclosed research project from “Frontend.”

“Frontend” itself is a company primarily engaged in software development, with its biggest project in recent years being management software for enterprises and government departments.

They even hoped to provide an internal system for these medium and large enterprises that could integrate customer relationship management, human resource management, database management, and more.

The advertised features of this software included internal chat, calls, video conferencing, online office work, and more, all in one platform.

However, “Frontend” got stuck during the integration process. They had no problem developing individual functional software, and their cooperation with major enterprises and the government had deepened in recent years, but the goal of integrating everything into one software and platform remained unfulfilled.

The main reason was that the computational data volume of many large enterprises is enormous, and their local server rooms’ computing power is insufficient to support it. Increasing the server room’s computing power would mean a significant cost investment, and no enterprise would want such a suggestion.

If “Frontend” wanted to secure broader enterprise cooperation, they had to solve the problem of enterprise data storage and computation.

They had recently seen the potential of “blockchain” in data storage.

But now, Luan Yenan on the stage directly shifted their perspective: “Most governments and enterprises, especially governments, should prioritize ‘keeping everything under their own control’ over ‘using software functions to provide convenience.’ Therefore, decentralized blockchain is not suitable. I recommend another technology—cloud computing.”

Compared to the decentralization of “blockchain” “cloud computing” is managed through a centralized controller.

“Hiss—” Just hearing the name, the many smart minds in the meeting room suddenly felt enlightened.

Luan Yenan gradually revealed the PPT.

From the moment she confirmed the level of information technology in this world, she had determined.

The four new drivers of the internet: cloud computing, the Internet of Things, big data, and artificial intelligence, had not fully established themselves in this world, with some only just beginning to emerge.

Take information storage methods, for example; they still used the most basic USB drives, hard drives, and even CDs.

So during this time, she had collaborated with “Huanyu” to realize network cloud storage technology.

The way she just downloaded the PPT in front of these smart people was surely enticing enough.

Not to mention how well “Frontend’s” project aligned with the concept of “enterprise cloud” these smart people were only one “cloud computing” technology away from the new era.

In a short fifteen-minute PPT presentation, Luan Yenan explained the principles and benefits of cloud computing and even offhandedly described the specific operations of applying cloud computing to “Frontend’s” project.

Even Luan Muyin was dumbfounded, looking at Luan Yenan and wondering if this girl was really the same troublemaker from before.

During the PPT presentation, she was clear, thorough, and captivating.

She had won over all the senior executives present.

Some of the senior executives who still held a grudge against Luan Yenan for her betrayal even began to reflect on whether their previous projects were so poor that Luan Yenan had disdainfully sold them off.

After finishing the PPT presentation, Luan Yenan took out a business card from her pocket and handed it to Luan Muyin.

Taking advantage of the moment when this Alpha mother was still puzzled about whether the daughter before her was real or not, she held her hand and said seriously, “Hello, President Luan, I am the person in charge of ‘Yituan E-commerce Co., Ltd.’ Our company can provide you with sufficient cloud computing power. Please feel free to contact us if you have any cooperation needs.”

“…” Luan Muyin’s hand hung in mid-air, somewhat dumbfounded.

Others were also dumbfounded, and seeing the expressions of this mother-daughter pair, they knew this wasn’t a prearranged act but a unilateral output from Luan Yenan.

Zuo Baixuan sat aside, lost in thought.

Luan Yenan didn’t give her much time to think, pulling her hand and saying, “Let’s go, wife, back to school. Didn’t we agree that we would practice a dance to amaze everyone?”

“Huh?” Zuo Baixuan was already pulled up by Luan Yenan before she remembered the joke from yesterday, “When did I agree to practice dancing with you?”

“Isn’t dancing good? I’ve even borrowed a training room from the school. Come on, let’s dance together.” Luan Yenan tugged Zuo Baixuan out, leaving a room full of “smart people” dumbfounded.

Zuo Baixuan’s gaze swept over the not-so-smart expressions of these people. She couldn’t help but find it amusing, understanding Luan Yenan’s enjoyment from it.

Without delving into other details, just looking at the spirited Luan Yenan, her figure, her current expression, if she were to dance, it would surely be beautiful.

“If you dance for me first, I might consider it.”

“Then let’s go.” Luan Yenan didn’t give Zuo Baixuan a chance to react, pulling her hard.

Zuo Baixuan spun in the corridor, like a graceful waltz.

This crazy woman, why is she suddenly acting up again?

But, it’s so interesting.

I must be crazy too!

Zuo Baixuan stared into Luan Yenan’s eyes, her own filled with a somewhat mad smile.

Luan Yenan held Zuo Baixuan’s waist with one hand, a perfect curve on her lips, already pulling her dance partner into the just-opened employee elevator without a care.
