Free Web NovelChapter 1949: Chapter 649: Tang Jin Manor, All or Nothing
The main building of Charleston Manor, resplendently lit, stood grandly.
Due to Tina Spencer’s personal appearance, the guests, initially scattered here and there, couldn’t help but focus their attention in her direction.
Soon after, they noticed the black-haired beauty engaging in an intimate conversation with the Lady Tina.
Whispers filled with curiosity and inquiry quietly rose among the crowd.
After a moment of shock, Lin Muxue took a deep breath, looking at the eyes smiling kindly at her, the tension and sense of pressure in her heart gradually dissipated.
In its place was a great surprise.
This was one of her own!
She was well aware of Tang Song’s connection with the Fortune group, but she never expected.
That among the members of the family office’s executive committee, there would be a direct descendant of a traditional European aristocratic family.
She immediately extended her hand proactively, a bright smile blossoming on her face: "Hello, Lady Tina, it’s an honor to meet you."
Tina gently shook her hand in return, "I’ve heard many things about you. But here, let’s not be so formal between us. You can just call me Tina."
"Alright, Tina."
The two began to converse obliviously.
Lin Muxue could clearly feel that the gazes directed at her had completely transitioned from initial "scrutiny" and "curiosity" to "awe" and "admiration."
Henry Devon, who had approached to strike up a conversation, stood there awkwardly, his face full of astonishment.
Emperor Muxue’s prestige was skyrocketing at a speed visible to the naked eye.
The surname Spencer is highly recognized in Britain.
Although its main branch is best known for being the family of the late Princess Diana’s Earl family.
Lin Muxue, during her studies of luxury goods history, had seen that this ancient family had, through centuries of marriage and capital operations, allowed its branches to intertwine throughout the entire European nobility and power network.
The Charleston Duke lineage one might see now probably inherited its illustrious title through marriage with an even older duke family.
And such a lady of noble blood, who holds significant influence in European high society, was actually responsible for global property asset management within the family office.
This position may seem like just a "head butler," but Lin Muxue understood the symbolic significance behind it.
These old-money European aristocrats were the pioneering ancestors of the "family office" concept.
Their wealth and glory were founded on the centuries-long inheritance of land, manors, castles, and art collections.
Yet now, a direct heir of such nobility was willingly managing property assets for Tang Song, a nouveau riche from the East.
This was not just mere "employment," but the highest level of recognition.
It symbolized that the energy and status possessed by this emerging financial group, the Tang Jin Family Office, were enough to enlist the service of Europe’s top old money.
Lin Muxue, for the first time, intuitively and vividly felt the formidable strength of the Tang Jin Family Office.
Additionally, Tang Song had once said he would entrust her with some of the operations of his non-core assets.
This was also the main motivator for Lin Muxue’s hard efforts.
Currently, it was only private jets and luxury houses on the Xiang River, but in the future, it would inevitably involve other global industries.
By then, she and Tina Spencer would surely have many opportunities to interact. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
Judging from today’s attitude, the other party shouldn’t be hard to get along with.
Unexpectedly, unknowingly, she, Xue, had already reached this point.
In the future, if she could really join Tang Jin, wouldn’t that be...
The always pretense-loving Xue, at this moment, had for the first time a powerful and lucid goal that made her whole body tremble.
Trailing behind Lin Muxue, Wang Si gradually came to her senses, full of incredulity.
She initially thought the two were similar, "huddling for warmth." freёwebnoѵel.com
Yet this scene before her completely overturned her perception.
With a similar background, both enrolled through "special channels" into Imperial College’s Global MBA program.
Both demonstrated an immense enthusiasm for luxury and fashion fields.
Even the unspoken resonance and harmony in conversations.
Wang Si genuinely considered Lin Muxue to be a "kindred spirit."
But she never expected Lin Muxue to receive such treatment.
Tina Spencer taking the initiative to greet her in such a setting, and appearing warm and friendly.
Truly unbelievable.
What... exactly is happening?
She watched Lin Muxue’s back, seemingly elevated in an instant, her gaze filled with complex and indescribable emotions.
...
At 5:30 p.m., guests gathered, and the alumni event gradually entered its main theme.
Tina naturally linked arms with Lin Muxue, smiling, "Let’s go, Luna, I’ll introduce you to a few friends."
"Thank you, Tina." Lin Muxue immediately nodded, striving to keep her voice steady, and stepped forward.
Wang Si hesitated for a moment but cautiously followed behind them.
They passed through the terrace and arrived at a resting area illuminated by the warm firelight of a fireplace.
This area gathered mostly gray-haired scholars and elders with an urbane air.
It was the academic core, the heart of the entire manor.
