I quickly followed. Fortunately, it was already night, and for some reason, the building's security guard wasn't at the entrance. I slipped in, but was immediately dumbfounded. Inside, there were several corridors in all directions, and several elevators going up, some for the high-rise floors and some for the low-rise. Mom was nowhere to be seen. Where was I supposed to find her now?
Although it was past 8 PM, the building was still brightly lit. Office workers working overtime were trickling out. My student attire stood out too much here, and many people looked at me strangely. I knew I couldn't just stand there foolishly.
Suddenly, I caught a faint, almost imperceptible scent of expensive perfume in the air. It was the same fragrance my mother was wearing today. I followed the scent to the left, arriving at an elevator lobby with two elevators that served the building's upper floors.
I stood at the entrance, unsure which elevator to take. Just then, one of the elevator doors opened. I stepped inside, but there was no trace of the mom's perfume. I was certain my mother hadn't taken this one, so I got back out to wait for the other elevator to come down.
I watched the display as the other elevator reached the 26th floor and then began its descent. It soon arrived on the first floor. As the doors opened, a faint fragrance wafted out, and two men in suits and ties walked out.
I entered the elevator, brushing past them, and heard one man say, "Did you see that woman just now? Fuck, I've never seen such a sexy beauty in my life."
The other man's face took on a lecherous expression as he said, "I saw her. And she's a mature woman with a big ass and big tits, my favorite type. The way her big ass swayed, I almost lost my soul."
"And she was dressed so provocatively too. That skirt was so short, any little movement would show everything, right? What a total slut. I wonder if she's an prostitute called by one of the bosses upstairs."
"Doesn't look like it. That woman has an air of class about her. You can tell she's a rich man's wife, okay."
"Whatever, we'll never get to be with someone that gorgeous in our lifetime. Forget it. Let's go get a drink..."
I watched them walk away as the elevator doors closed. I knew they were talking about my mother, and my heart was filled with contempt for such perverts.
The elevator was indeed filled with my mother's familiar, intoxicating scent. I pressed the button for the 26th floor and watched the numbers on the display climb. Soon, with a "ding," I arrived.
I hurried out of the elevator, turned left, and walked out of the lobby. Down the corridor, a huge "Weixin Group" logo appeared. The office was still brightly lit, but the reception and security desks were empty; they had probably already left for the day. At the entrance, there was a glass door that appeared to have a security lock.
My heart sank. If it was locked, I wouldn't be able to get in. I walked up to the glass door, and to my surprise, it was an automatic door that slid open without being locked.
I guessed it had been left unlocked for my mother, or perhaps someone at a control panel inside had opened it and hadn't locked it afterwards. In any case, I successfully entered the Weixin Group's office area. I quietly walked down the corridor, flanked by company offices. Some were still lit, with people working overtime, while others were dark and their doors closed.
My mother's scent lingered along the entire corridor. I walked quickly to the very end, and thankfully, I didn't encounter a single person. After turning a corner, I saw a large red door next to a big office. A plaque on the door read "Chairman's Office."
The door was tightly shut. The chairman of Weixin Group must be that Jiang Weixin. My mother had definitely gone inside. I was stumped, if the door didn't open, there was no way I could get in.
Not willing to give up, I pressed my ear to the door, but the soundproofing was excellent and I couldn't hear a thing.
Just as I was at a loss, I heard the sound of voices coming from a nearby corridor. I was a conspicuous target here, so I frantically looked for a place to hide. In my desperation, I noticed a large restroom next to the chairman's office and quickly slipped inside.
Once inside, I hid in one of the large stalls. The footsteps of two men grew louder as they entered, talking about company business while heading to the urinals. I prepared to wait until they left before coming out.
It was then that I noticed a window at the back of the stall that led outside. It was quite large. An idea struck me, and I tried to open it. I found it could be opened just wide enough for a person to squeeze through. I poked my head out and a cold wind blew in. I saw it was a narrow maintenance passage for the building's outdoor air conditioning units. And the passage seemed to extend toward the side of the chairman's office!
I was desperate to know what was happening to my mother. I couldn't rest easy with her alone in Uncle Weixin's office. So, I climbed out through the window. The passage was surprisingly spacious and had a high railing. Looking down at the 26th-floor view made me dizzy, but the dazzling neon lights of the city center below created a spectacular, unique scene.
I had no time to admire the beautiful night view. I walked along the walkway to the other side until I was roughly parallel with the chairman's office. Above me was a balcony. I reached up, grabbed the edge, and pulled myself up. To my surprise, I climbed onto the chairman's office balcony with ease.
I felt like a private detective from an action movie, here to investigate Jiang Weixin. For some reason, my heart was pounding violently, a wave of panic washing over me, and my palms were slick with sweat.
The balcony was large with a huge floor-to-ceiling glass door. Thick curtains were drawn on the inside, making it impossible to see what was going on. I crept over and found that the glass door was shut tight and wouldn't budge. Not giving up, I inspected it more closely and discovered that the curtains in one corner weren't fully closed. I hurried over, crouched down, and peered through the gap. From here, I had a clear view of the entire office.
The office was vast and lavishly decorated. In the center was a huge mahogany desk, with a luxurious executive chair behind it. Against the back wall was a row of mahogany bookshelves.
Diagonally across from the desk, against another wall, was a set of exquisitely decorated leather sofas with a coffee table in front. A few landscape paintings hung on the walls.
The man named Jiang Weixin was sitting in the executive chair, talking on his phone. My mother was perched on the edge of the opposite side of the large mahogany desk, her legs crossed. Her back was to me, and she held her arms crossed confidently under her prominent chest. Her mink shawl, which had been on her shoulders, was now on a coat rack nearby. Her huge, round, plump buttocks sat on the edge of the desk. The fleshy curves, encased in her tight skirt, pressed against the desk, squeezing out a ring of plump flesh around the desk surface, looking extremely elastic. The hem of her skirt had ridden up due to her sitting position, exposing most of her full thighs, which were sheathed in ultra-sheer black stockings that were almost transparent. A pair of bright red high heels dangled playfully from her shapely, suspended foot. Her full thighs and well-proportioned calves traced a pair of stunningly long, sexy legs, which radiated a mature, sensual allure beneath the black silk.
"Alright, thank you, Director Zhang. So, it's settled? The goods can be brought in immediately?"
I heard Jiang Weixin say into the phone. The glass door didn't seem to have great soundproofing as I could hear everything inside very clearly.
From my angle, I couldn't see my mother's expression. She was sitting sideways on the desk, facing Jiang Weixin with her back to me. She looked completely at ease, as if she had already taken care of business.
"Yes, yes, yes. Thank you, Director Zhang. President Gu and I will certainly pay you a visit to express our gratitude another day. Alright, that's it. Good night."
After exchanging a few more pleasantries, Jiang Weixin hung up the phone and said to my mother with a smile, "Wanxin, that phone call of yours was the key. As soon as Director Zhang heard the goods were yours, he gave you face immediately. They're letting them in without inspection. They should arrive at the warehouse tonight."
My mother gave a slight smile and said, "Hmph, you can't even handle such a small matter and had to bother me, interrupting my son's birthday. It seems your connections with the higher-ups haven't improved much in the last two years."
Jiang Weixin quickly agreed. He stood up from his chair and walked over to my mother's side. At this, my mother also turned her face to look at him, allowing me to see her gorgeous profile beneath her wavy hair. Her arms were still crossed under her chest, revealing a deep, soul-stirring cleavage between the pale, creamy mounds of her breasts. Her enchanting, large eyes were fixed on the approaching man, and her beautiful body remained perfectly still on the edge of the desk.
Jiang Weixin was tall and, for a middle-aged man, quite well-built and upright. He had a square, authoritative face and was wearing a well-fitted business suit, giving him the distinctive charm of a mature man.
Jiang Weixin walked right up to my mother, pressing close against her, and said with a smile, "Wanxin, after all these years, you haven't changed a bit. You're still the queen who can get anything done. If we work together, my distribution channels plus your products, we can definitely carve out a new empire. At that point, most of the logistics and apparel trade in Jingzhou will be on our map. The prospects are endless!"
My mother laughed and said, "Your skills haven't improved much over the years, but your tongue has certainly gotten sweeter."
She had a captivating, charming, flower-like smile, her enchanting eyes carrying a hint of confidence, full of the elegant, mature grace of a sophisticated woman.
For some reason, as I watched them getting along so well, my heart tightened. I had a faint, ominous feeling that something terrible was about to happen. It felt as if the blood in my veins was slowing down.
Jiang Weixin stared into my mother's glistening, expressive eyes, gazing at her with deep affection. He suddenly leaned in, wrapped a large arm around her waist, and pulled this stunningly beautiful mature woman into his embrace. Then, he placed his right hand on her plump, smooth thigh wrapped in black stocking.
"Hehehe, where do you think you're putting your hand?" my mother asked with a flirtatious laugh, but she didn't push him away.
Seeing that my mother didn't reject him, Jiang Weixin's face lit up with joy. He immediately pulled her tightly into his arms. The charming mature man pressed his lips against hers, planting a heavy, firm kiss on her full, sexy lips.
"Mmmph...!"
My mother let out a soft cry, caught off guard. She hadn't expected Jiang Weixin to dare kiss her directly. Her red lips, which she had intended to keep tightly closed, instantly lost their defense. Jiang Weixin's thick tongue immediately plunged into her small mouth, swirling around. His lips sucked carefully on her soft, full lips, his hot breath filling her mouth. Their saliva mixed, and I could even hear a soft "slurping" sound.
