Le Yao felt uncomfortable being stared at and quickly looked away.

Yang Jinhan smiled slightly, then lowered his head and silently drank his wine.

After that, everyone got along very peacefully, chatting and laughing, creating a lively atmosphere.

"Qiao, is this Brilliant Films a company that the Wu family invested in and established specifically to promote their own son?" Le Yao quietly asked Qiao Qiao, because Li Hao had just said that Wu Ya would be the lead in the next youth drama. It's good to be rich.

"No, Brilliant has been established for five or six years. It's under the Earl Group." Qiao Qiao took a sip of hot milk. Due to her special health condition today, she could only drink fresh milk in the most expensive club.

“The Earl Group?” Yue Yao frowned. “Very powerful?” This wasn’t mentioned in the original book.

On the other side, Nangong Jue pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

"They started on Wall Street and their businesses span the globe..." Qiao Qiao glanced at Le Yao. "Let me put it this way, the Qiao family is very powerful, right? But my dad said that our Qiao family's assets, at most, are only about a third of theirs."

Le Yao gasped, "That's awesome." She couldn't help but glance at Huo Yi; she hadn't taken him seriously just now.

"What's even more impressive is that, all these years, nobody has known who the real boss is."

"That Huo Yi..."

"That person is just the person in charge on the surface."

Nangong Jue's lips curled up into a smile.

"I reckon that big boss is pretty ugly." Le Yao stroked her chin. "Otherwise, he's just too ugly to be seen in public. Otherwise, why would he hide like that?"

Nangong Jue's lips twitched, and his smile froze.

“That makes sense.” Qiao Qiao nodded.

"But who cares? It has nothing to do with us." Le Yao picked up her juice and clinked it against Qiao Qiao's.

“Exactly.” Qiao Qiao nodded.

"You two..." Nangong Jue really wanted to tell these two women that the big boss behind them was very handsome and presentable, but before he could speak, the door to the private room was pushed open with a bang.

The group of people who were talking, drinking, and playing drinking games all turned their heads to look over and saw Yang Jinxuan walk in.

"Big brother, you..." Yang Jinhan frowned, but was still the first to get up and go over to him.

"I didn't come here to see you." Yang Jinxuan pushed his younger brother aside and walked straight in, looking directly at Nangong Jue. "Nangong Jue, you're not unhappy that I'm here, are you?"

"How could that be?" Nangong Jue chuckled. "They're all brothers, why wouldn't I welcome them?"

Fu Yun Shen got up and went over to pull Yang Jin Xuan: "I called you before, but you didn't answer. Now..."

Yang Jinxuan pushed Fu Yunshen away, then picked up the wine bottle on the table and poured himself a full glass of red wine before walking over to Nangong Jue: "I was next door when I heard you were here, so I came over to say hello. Here, let me toast you."

Nangong Jue also stood up: "Okay." Then he clinked glasses with Nangong Jue and drank it all in one gulp.

However, Yang Jinxuan didn't drink it. Instead, he looked at Nangong Jue and said, "Mengmeng is dead, and you're happy about that?"

"You don't know how she died?" Nangong Jue raised an eyebrow at Yang Jinxuan. "Besides, are you sure she's really dead?"

Le Yao frowned slightly. What she feared most was that, like in some novels, the woman didn't die, but instead got plastic surgery and came back for revenge—that would be too melodramatic.
