Maxing Out Charisma, Inheriting Game Assets Chapter 313: Xiaoxue Hits the Jackpot! Porsche 911

The warm and bright lighting of the business lounge created a cozy ambiance, while the faint scent of tea lingered in the air.

Tang Song’s curious gaze swept across the spacious lobby, his eyes catching sight of someone through a gap in the decorative screen.

Large, watery eyes stared back at him, framed by soft, styled hair and an elegantly made-up face.

She wore a striking red evening dress paired with subtle dousha-colored lipstick, enhancing her gentle yet elegant aura.

Lin Muxue, as always, looked as fashionable and glamorous as a true socialite.

Yet, Tang Song couldn’t help but recall how absurdly chaotic she had been during her “map-drawing phase.”

That stark contrast always amused him to no end.

The senior executives behind him noticed where Tang Song’s gaze had landed and tactfully shifted their eyes away, pretending not to notice.

Startled, Lin Muxue quickly stood up, her red-bottomed black heels sinking silently into the deep-brown carpet. Her long, slender legs were pressed together tightly.

In public, especially with so many people present, Xiaoxue knew how to behave.

Tang Song’s lips curled into a faint smile. “Xiaoxue, what are you doing here?”

Holding her Hermes Birkin tightly with both hands, Lin Muxue replied in a low voice, “I came here for a meeting about an investment matter, related to Yaqian.”

She didn’t mention Xie Shuyu or the issues was facing.

In Lin Muxue’s mind, only Yaqian, the “beautician,” was her true ally. Everyone else was a competitor. If she didn’t trip them up, it was only because she hadn’t yet found an opportunity. Helping them? Not a chance.

Tang Song nodded slightly. “Finished with that?”

“Yes. They’ve left, and I stayed behind to do a SPA session,” Lin Muxue explained, quickly adding, “It’s almost the end of the workday, and I live right next door. I wouldn’t normally skip work.”

“I know,” Tang Song replied with a calm nod before slightly turning toward the group of hotel executives behind him. “This is my assistant, Lin Muxue.”

Lin Muxue blinked, her heart skipping a beat.

It was the first time Tang Song had introduced her like this in public. For some reason, the words sounded exceptionally pleasant to her ears—almost intimate.

She felt a sudden warmth of gratitude.

And at the same time, a pang of guilt. Her refusal to give in to Zhang Yurong’s bribery now seemed even more justified.

Upon hearing the introduction, General Manager Qiao Anji and the others immediately greeted her enthusiastically.

“Hello, Assistant Lin. I’m Qiao Anji, the hotel manager.”

“I’m Feng Hui, director of the Recreation Department.”

“Assistant Lin, I’m Liang Zhihong, director of the Food and Beverage Department.”

...

As the executives introduced themselves one by one, Lin Muxue’s polite nods masked the whirlpool of thoughts in her mind.

It made sense that the hotel would treat someone like Tang Song with utmost respect.

After exchanging pleasantries, Tang Song met Lin Muxue’s gaze and asked directly, “I’m going to continue touring the hotel and will be dining in the banquet hall tonight. Do you want to finish your SPA, or join me for a bit of overtime?”

He had always enjoyed guiding Lin Muxue’s growth. Unlike his system-generated companions, Xiaoxue was someone he had “mentored” from the ground up, and she often surprised him in delightful ways—sometimes even triggering missions.

“Chairman Tang, I’ll join you!” Lin Muxue replied eagerly, her voice slightly louder than usual, making her cheeks flush with embarrassment.

She couldn’t help but wonder:

“Let’s go, then.” Tang Song smiled and led the way forward.

As the group continued the tour, Tang Song listened to introductions about . As one of the most iconic features of the Recreation Department, the lounge was famous across Yan City for its elegant and luxurious design, state-of-the-art facilities, and suitability for high-end business gatherings.

Lin Muxue trailed close behind, her expression growing more puzzled with every detailed explanation.

When they exited the lounge, the group took an elevator to the 6th floor.

There, they toured the temperature-controlled swimming pool, high-end fitness club, and yoga studio.

Every staff member they encountered instinctively stopped what they were doing to bow respectfully, their faces radiating exaggerated reverence.

Even hotel guests cast curious glances their way, intrigued by the scene.

Immersed in this atmosphere, Lin Muxue felt like she was floating. Her face was slightly flushed with excitement.

This was her favorite kind of moment—being surrounded by grandeur and prestige.

Especially here, at , a place where she had once saved for months just to afford a brief visit.

The sheer luxury made her feel like melting into water.

Next, the group entered the hotel’s suite floor.

General Manager Qiao Anji turned to Tang Song and began introducing the hotel’s room services. His voice was clear and confident.

“The hotel offers 390 rooms, including Presidential Suites, Executive Suites, Business Rooms, and Deluxe Rooms.

“Our designs align with international standards, incorporating human-centered concepts to create uniquely elegant spaces for our guests.

“Because of the scale of our Recreation and Dining departments, the staff-to-room ratio is 1.3, with nearly 500 employees in total. Of course, this includes interns and outsourced hourly workers to ensure smooth operation of all services and facilities.

“Chairman Tang, I’ve placed the staff roster in your office. If you have any adjustments in mind, please let me know at any time...”

As Qiao continued speaking, Lin Muxue’s thoughts ground to a halt.

She had already felt something was off earlier, but this finally clicked everything into place.

Her head buzzed, as though it had been struck by a heavy hammer.

This wasn’t some business tour.

It was clearly a full-on company briefing for the boss!

Realization struck Lin Muxue like a lightning bolt, her legs weakening as her gaze softened. Tears threatened to pool in her eyes as she looked at Tang Song.

As the hotel executives continued their introductions, Tang Song’s ears were suddenly greeted by the crisp chime of a system notification.

“”

Tang Song paused for a moment before subtly opening his system interface to view the quest details.

Task Details:

As a well-established luxury five-star hotel, offers a vast network of relationships, connections, and social resources. While providing you with a significant leap in status and influence, it will also present new challenges.

• Gain an in-depth understanding of the hotel's business operations.
• Strengthen team cohesion and management capabilities.
• Maintain the healthy operation of the hotel while asserting your authority.
• Broaden your horizons and perspective to become a qualified enterprise leader.

Reward:

• Outfit Pack x1
• Charm +1

Note: Your leadership charm will directly affect the cohesion and morale of the enterprise.

Outfit Pack: Open this to receive a random outfit.

Tang Song’s brows raised, excitement flickering in his eyes.

A quest to directly boost his charm stat? This was rare.

But it made sense. Until now, the only company he had personally managed was . Its flat organizational structure and his direct involvement had made oversight relatively straightforward.

However, taking over a well-established corporation like , with over eight years of history, was a whole new challenge that would require significant effort and dedication.

Thankfully, he had the legendary artifact 【Badge – Scholar (Aura)】. With it, he could “go turbo” and quickly absorb the hotel's business data, customer records, financial statements, and other key information.

Once familiarized, he could then focus on key departments, asserting his authority as needed.

If he managed to gain initial control over this five-star hotel, the rewards—both tangible and intangible—would be immense. His leadership charm would undoubtedly skyrocket as well.

Over the next half hour, Lin Muxue followed behind Tang Song, her face flushed and her mind in a daze.

With an entirely new perspective, she toured the luxurious, internationally-renowned hotel.

As a self-proclaimed Yan City “socialite,” Lin Muxue had always admired upscale venues like .

The hotel boasted a total building area of nearly 60,000 square meters, with a 33-story tower (30 floors above ground, three underground) rising over 120 meters tall.

Beyond the main building, its ancillary structures housed a variety of entertainment and leisure facilities:

• The ultra-high-end .
• The famous .
• An international conference center accommodating up to 1,000 guests.
• Presidential suites costing upwards of 30,000 yuan per night.
• A premium executive corridor catering to high-profile clientele.

These were the very luxuries she had once dreamed of, things she had only dared to imagine during her most ambitious fantasies.

And now, she realized that all of it belonged to Tang Song.

The revelation left her utterly speechless, the sense of awe indescribable.

Finally, the group reached the 30th floor.

Stepping onto thick hand-woven carpets, they passed through a luxurious, brightly-lit corridor before arriving at a pair of grand double doors.

The doors, made of heavy black and gold materials, exuded solemnity and opulence.

Pushing them open revealed a spacious side hall.

The high, vaulted ceiling was adorned with suspended drapes and a dazzling chandelier that scattered soft, star-like light across the room.

As Lin Muxue stepped inside, each footfall felt as though she were treading on clouds.

She looked around, her eyes drinking in the grandeur.

It was as if she had entered a palace in the sky, radiating an unmatched sense of nobility and splendor.

While Tang Song’s penthouse apartment was impressive, the long-coveted presidential suite carried a unique allure—like the unattainable “White Moonlight” of her dreams.

She recalled a visit she’d made to with a few girlfriends. Back then, they had pooled their money during a promotional event to book an executive suite. They’d lingered in the executive corridor, snapping countless photos.

The memory of its tranquil, private, and luxurious ambiance had lingered with her ever since.

At the time, she had fantasized about one day becoming a true elite, a bona fide socialite. But knowing her own circumstances, she had dismissed such thoughts as idle dreams.

Now, under Tang Song’s influence, those dreams were beginning to take shape, inching closer to reality.

Raising her head, Lin Muxue looked toward the figure standing by the floor-to-ceiling windows. Tang Song’s silhouette was outlined against the dimming sky, and an overwhelming sense of emotion stirred within her.

Outside the windows, the sky was growing dark, with heavy clouds hanging like leaden weights over the horizon.

The world seemed cloaked in a somber gray veil.

Lights from distant skyscrapers flickered faintly against the muted backdrop, resembling scattered stars in a cloudy night sky.

Farther away, streams of traffic converged into a glowing yellow ribbon, winding like a river through the city.

Standing by the window with his arms at his sides, Tang Song gazed out at the gloomy skyline.

In his mind, he replayed the ending animation from before his “game became reality.”

At this moment, standing atop his own hotel and overlooking the city lights, the scene was eerily reminiscent of that final cinematic.

Yet, compared to the “player character” from the game, he felt he still lacked that commanding aura of dominance.

In the warmly lit business lounge, Tang Song’s figure exuded a quiet charisma as he stood calmly by the floor-to-ceiling window. Without showing emotion, he seemed to have the entire city underfoot, composed and unyielding.

It was an aura Lin Muxue couldn’t look away from—a reflection of the man he had become and the future he continued to chase.

Tang Song’s gaze shifted momentarily to the faint reflection of himself in the glass, his confidence and ambition burning brighter.

“Chairman Tang, the banquet hall on the 3rd floor has been prepared,” said Chen Yang, the Director of Food and Beverage, stepping forward quietly.

“Alright, let’s go.”

The banquet hall was brightly lit, lavishly decorated, and bustling with activity.

All the senior executives of were present. They approached Tang Song one by one, offering toasts and detailed self-introductions, formally acquainting themselves with their new boss.

Lin Muxue, ever the diligent assistant, abstained from drinking. She remained at Tang Song’s side, mentally noting each person’s name and title, taking her role seriously.

As the dinner drew to a close, Tang Song stood on the observation deck, letting the cool breeze wash over him while responding to messages on his phone.

Lin Muxue hesitated for a moment, biting her lip before mustering the courage to step closer.

The familiar scent of her perfume drifted over, prompting Tang Song to put his phone away and turn toward her.

“What’s up, Xiaoxue? Are you heading out with your bag in hand?” he asked casually.

His relaxed demeanor, the gentle tilt of his lips, and the unbuttoned collar of his shirt revealing his collarbones and defined chest muscles gave him an effortless charm that was impossible to ignore.

His black attire, complemented by the night’s allure, made him utterly irresistible.

Lin Muxue’s hands trembled slightly as she opened her treasured Hermes bag and retrieved four shopping cards from . Her voice carried a hint of nervousness as she spoke.

“Chairman Tang, the person I met earlier today was Zhang Yurong, the owner of . Yaqian and I have already had dealings with her.

“She’s hoping I’ll persuade Yaqian to become her business partner and help launch a lightweight medical aesthetics project. Before leaving, she gave me these shopping cards. Of course, I didn’t agree to anything. This is related to Yaqian’s career path, and I wouldn’t act rashly.”

After a long internal struggle, Lin Muxue had decided to confess everything.

After all, everything she had now—her opportunities, her status—had come from Tang Song. Compared to his trust, these material temptations seemed insignificant.

“Oh? Zhang Yurong?” Tang Song reached out and took the cards, his slender fingers lightly brushing over them.

His mind conjured the image of Zhang Yurong, an elegant and charming woman he had once met at a high-net-worth client event hosted by . Introduced by Xie Shuyu, he had exchanged pleasantries with her.

He hadn’t expected Zhang Yurong to cross paths with Yaqian.

But what truly surprised him was Lin Muxue’s honesty.

Having experienced 【Whispers of Lin Muxue】, Tang Song was well aware of her obsession with money, shopping, and flaunting her wealth.

Yet here she was, voluntarily confessing to receiving shopping cards worth 40,000 yuan—a gift from Zhang Yurong herself.

It was clear she was evolving, growing.

Tang Song chuckled softly and leaned slightly forward, locking eyes with her. “Xiaoxue, you’ve done well. I’m impressed.”

Hearing his words, Lin Muxue’s face lit up with joy, her smile radiant and heartfelt.

“Chairman Tang, I’ll do my best to handle things properly and live up to your expectations,” she said earnestly, her gaze meeting his boldly.

Her full, dewy lips parted slightly as if on the verge of saying more, and her delicate features seemed more vibrant than ever.

At that moment, the crisp sound of a system notification chimed in Tang Song’s ear.

“”

Surprised, Tang Song’s gaze grew more intense as he looked at Lin Muxue.

Opening the system interface, he quickly navigated to the Task Center and read the details.

Task Details:

Tang Song’s eyes lit up with
