Ten years in Huating have been turbulent, with behind-the-scenes capital always omnipresent. Beneath the calm surface, undercurrents always churn; lights flicker on and off, and human affairs ebb a...
Ji Yang clearly noticed a significant change in Qin Suisui's attitude, and he gave Wen Zong a half-smile.
"I'm sure you know, Attorney Qin, that I have a good relationship with Manager Yu. But he is him, and I am me. We should each have our own circle of friends. What do you think, Attorney Qin?"
Qin Suisui's eyes were slightly upturned at the corners, and her expression conveyed a sense of indifference and aloofness.
"That makes sense."
She turned to look at Wen Zong.
"Attorney Wen, please take some time tomorrow to personally visit President Ji at Maple Leaf Holdings to discuss the cooperation between our law firm and Maple Leaf Holdings."
Qin Suisui looked at Ji Yang with a meaningful smile.
"Mr. Ji, cooperation is the cornerstone of friendship, don't you think?"
"Hahaha!"
Ji Yang almost burst out laughing; his eyes were red and sparkling.
"Qin Lu, it seems that the foundation between us must be solid and firm!"
"snort!"
Qin Suisui snorted coldly, and was about to speak when a deep voice came from behind her.
"It is said that the three major shareholders of Maple Leaf Holdings, together with other minor shareholders, are preparing to apply to a third-party auditing firm to audit the whereabouts of the group's 500 million yuan loan last year."
Huo Zhongyuan stood behind Qin Suisui, his deep black eyes sharp, his expression cold yet domineering.
"I suppose Mr. Ji doesn't have much time to make friends right now."
"Mr. Huo!"
Ji Yang narrowed his eyes and said in a cold tone, "I never expected that President Huo, with all his busy schedule, would find the time to pay attention to such a small group company as Maple Leaf. It's truly an honor!"
"Senior Brother Huo!"
Qin Suisui moved aside, making room for her.
Huo Zhongyuan stepped forward and stood beside Qin Suisui, a faint smile on his lips, a smile that did not please anyone.
"As an investor, I pay attention to every economic fluctuation and I don't miss any details, especially since Maple Leaf is a listed company."
"Really? I've learned a lot!"
Ji Yang, with a cold face, raised his wine glass in a gesture of farewell, then turned and walked back the way he came.
"Senior Brother Huo!"
As soon as Ji Yangren left, Chang Jinhui looked at Huo Zhongyuan excitedly.
"Um!"
A faint smile appeared on Huo Zhongyuan's usually cold and stern face.
"Excuse me for now!"
He glanced at Qin Suisui, nodded slightly, and turned to walk towards the podium.
Wen Zong looked at Huo Zhongyuan, who was leaving, with a look of surprise in his eyes. He then looked at Qin Lu's expression and seemed to understand something.
Ji Ju returned defeated, his face ashen, while Yu Chengjue laughed heartily.
"What a disappointing experience!"
"So what? At least I could say a few words to you. What about you? You could only stand in the corner and watch helplessly. I was implicated because of you. When Qin Suisui heard that you and I were friends, her face immediately turned cold."
Ji Yang glanced at him irritably, but he still felt a lump in his throat.
"Huo Zhongyuan's attitude has become increasingly arrogant in recent years."
Yu Chengjue lowered his eyes, making his expression unreadable.
What did he say?
"What did you say?"
Ji Yang suddenly laughed: "Brother, you're probably not going to have an easy time from now on."
They're all in the same circle. When has Huo Zhongyuan ever meddlesome? Such blatant protection—he doesn't believe he has ulterior motives.
Thinking about the complicated relationships between these people, and knowing that Huating's future would only become more and more lively, he couldn't help but laugh heartily.
Yu Chengjue also realized what the other party wanted to express, and his eyes gradually turned cold.
Qin Suisui didn't care about Ji Yang's attitude or purpose at all. As she turned around, she saw two familiar faces.
"Do you know who the woman next to Principal Su is?"
"Principal Su?"
Chang Jinhui turned around and glanced at it.
"Oh, her!"
"You know Chang Lu?"
Qin Suisui quickly pressed for more information.
"Yes, I know him."
Chang Jinhui explained, "Qin Lu, her name is Wang Shu. You should know her cousin, she's the aunt of that young lady from the An family."
He touched his nose, looking slightly embarrassed.
"What a coincidence!"
Qin Suisui looked annoyed and disgusted.
"What is her relationship with Principal Su?"
"She is the director of the logistics group of Huating Medical College."
Chang Jinhui glanced at Qin Lu's expression, somewhat puzzled as to why Qin Lu was paying attention to those two.
"At the banquets that Principal Su attended, Wang Shu was always there to accompany him."
"Are you always this intimate?"
Qin Suisui stared intently at the two figures from behind. Their constant little gestures and occasional eye contact revealed their intimacy and familiarity.
She absolutely refused to believe that they had no relationship.
"It seems so~"
Chang Jinhui said somewhat uncertainly.
“Lawyer Qin, you…”
Before he could finish speaking, Qin Suisui walked over with her cup in hand.
"Uncle Su!"
Su Jingbo was listening intently to her female companion's spoiled complaints when a familiar voice suddenly rang in her ears.
He was startled and turned around, a look of panic flashing across his face.
"Sui Sui!"
He instantly distanced himself from Wang Shu.
"I heard from Yueyue a long time ago that you came back to China. I even told Yueyue last time that I would ask her to bring you home for dinner when she has time."
If it weren't for two chance encounters and seeing Uncle Su's friendly smile, she would never have believed that Uncle Su would do these things behind her back.
"I miss Uncle Su's cooking too."
She didn't know how far things had progressed between Uncle Su and the woman with such a fierce expression, so she could only try to steer the conversation in the opposite direction.
She looked at the woman next to Uncle Su.
"Madam, do you remember this? This is our second meeting."
