Top-tier celebrity and internet sensation Jiang Qiao transmigrated into a novel — specifically into a campus redemption story — as the vicious rich girl villainess. In the story, she constantly...
Chapter 265
Sheng Jing narrowed his eyes. It seemed that his younger brother still had many secrets.
Sheng Jing read through the five sheets of investigation materials carefully, and finally landed on the last page, which was the information after Lu Xun returned to China.
Shengyuan, a property developed by the Sheng family two years ago, is a well-deserved wealthy area, but most of the people living there are celebrities and second-generation rich people.
Lu Xun refused the Beijing suburb villa given by the old man and bought his own house, which was on the top floor...
“Who lives around him?”
Sheng Jing didn't think his brother was a fool. He must have had a reason for buying the house here.
The black-clad bodyguard opened his mouth but said nothing.
Sheng Jing frowned: "You didn't check this?"
"Mr. Sheng, I thought..." Facing the man's dark face, the bodyguard shut up immediately and said quickly: "I'll go check it out now."
Shengyuan is a real estate project owned by the Sheng family, so it is easy to check the project. After a while, the information about Jiang Qiao was handed to Sheng Jing.

During the intermission of the variety show recording, Jiang Qiao took the thermos cup handed over by his assistant, opened it and took a sip. It contained wolfberry and golden rose, which effectively relieved fatigue.
"Sister Qiao Qiao, Sister Zheng said that she wants you to attend a charity dinner with President Tang tonight. The dress has been chosen, and the stylist will be waiting at the company in a while." The assistant whispered.
"Tonight?" Jiang Qiao frowned: "In such a hurry?"
For events like this, you usually need to receive an invitation two or three days in advance. It is rare for a sudden notification like this to happen.
The assistant looked around and saw that no one was paying attention, so he said, "I heard that this was hosted by the Sheng family. Originally, they only invited a few young people and middle-aged students to act as the fringe. I don't know why a few more people were added temporarily."
Jiang Qiao was one of the people who were added temporarily.
It was held by the Sheng family. If he didn't receive an invitation, it would be fine. But if he accepted it and didn't go, it would be a blatant lack of face. Jiang Qiao knew he couldn't refuse.
It was already past 4pm after the show ended, and Jiang Qiao went straight to the company. As soon as he arrived, Zheng Min, who had been waiting for a long time, pulled him into the lounge to do his styling.
A charity dinner is not like a red carpet, so you don't need to wear something too fancy, just something decent and elegant. Jiang Qiao wore a long black dress, the close-fitting design perfectly showed off her excellent figure.
Her long black hair was simply tied up, and she looked beautiful without any makeup. The stylist's eyes were filled with undisguised amazement.
After putting on some light makeup and fixing her hair, the stylist looked left and right and finally added a pearl necklace to Jiang Qiao before 5:30.
"Are you done? There's more..." Tang Hao pushed open the door, and the next second his impatient words stopped abruptly.
Even though he has known Jiang Qiao for many years and has seen all kinds of beauties in the entertainment industry, he is still amazed by Jiang Qiao.
Tang Hao didn't want to look so useless, so he asked critically, "You're just wearing this?"
Charity dinners are not "charity" at all. They are a place for the rich to compare themselves secretly. What they wear and bring shows off their wealth.
Jiang Qiao only wore an inconspicuous pearl necklace. People who didn't know would think that he was deducting the artist's salary. Tang Hao was not satisfied and said to his secretary: "Go and get the jadeite set from my home. Yes, bring the whole set."
Tang Hao's ostentatious remarks stunned everyone. Seeing that the secretary was really going to take it, Jiang Qiao quickly said, "No, don't let him take it!"
"That's great. I'm just going to be a spectator. There's no point in wearing something so expensive." Jiang Qiao said calmly.
Tang Hao was still unhappy, but seeing that Jiang Qiao really didn't want to wear it, he didn't force it.
Jiang Qiao seems to be easy to talk to, but he is actually very stubborn. Once he makes a decision, it cannot be changed, so he doesn't want to go against his will.
The charity dinner was held at a five-star hotel in the city center. Sheng Jiahao was so generous that he booked the entire floor.
There was still half an hour before the dinner started. The bigwigs from all walks of life were chatting, and Tang Hao was also dragged to drink. Jiang Qiao didn't like this kind of occasion, so he politely rejected the people who came to chat. He looked around and finally walked to the dessert area where few people went.
Unfortunately, the peace didn't last long. Looking at the uninvited guest blocking her way, Jiang Qiao frowned slightly, but still smiled politely: "Mr. Huang, what's the matter?"
"Can't I talk to you if there's nothing wrong?" Huang Fan was in a good mood after he got in the way, but when he thought of Jiang Qiao's attitude of not giving in, he became a little unhappy. He looked him up and down with naked eyes, and then said jokingly: "Why, Master Tang didn't stay by your side tonight?"
In the past, whenever he wanted to get close to Jiang Qiao, Tang Hao would always respond rudely. He still felt resentful. Now that Jiang Qiao was alone, he had to be sarcastic.
Seeing that Jiang Qiao didn't say anything, he narrowed his eyes and said, "It seems that Tang Hao is just playing around. Oh, I saw him taking a little celebrity to a hotel a few days ago."
Another person who misunderstood her relationship with Tang Hao. Jiang Qiao didn't understand why these second-generation rich people only had such despicable thoughts in their minds.
"So what?" Jiang Qiao disagreed.
The contemptuous tone annoyed Huang Fan, and his face, which was not good-looking to begin with, darkened, as if he were an alien being: "Jiang Qiao, don't be so shameless."
"There are so many women willing to be with me. Stop playing hard to get while I still have patience with you."
With his confident speech and that rotten face, Jiang Qiao lost his remaining patience and walked around him to leave.
She caught a glimpse of Huang Fan's raised arm. She turned cold and was about to hide when she heard a scream of pain like a pig being slaughtered.
Huang Fan's arm was twisted by the man and hung down as if dislocated. His expression was distorted with pain. Many people looked over here. The bodyguards quickly took Huang Fan away.
It was a farce, not too big or too small. Jiang Qiao didn't expect to attract this person. He lowered his eyes and said, "Thank you, Mr. Sheng. I'm sorry for causing trouble for the dinner."
Sheng Jing was a little surprised and chuckled: "You know me?"
"Mr. Sheng is young and promising, it's hard not to know him." Jiang Qiao complimented politely.
"Miss Jiang, you are too kind. I wonder if I could have the honor to invite Miss Jiang to dinner?" Sheng Jing said.
Jiang Qiao couldn't help but frowned: "Now?"
The dinner was about to officially begin, and Shengjing, as the official organizer, did not stay to preside over the situation, but instead invited her to dinner. This was a bit too unreasonable.
Jiang Qiao politely declined: "Thank you very much, Mr. Sheng, for helping me, but it's not convenient tonight. I'll treat Mr. Sheng another day."
As if he hadn't expected her to refuse, Sheng Jing's face flashed with emotion, and then he sighed regretfully and pretended to be distressed and said: "I wanted to apologize to Miss Jiang on behalf of my brother. Since Miss Jiang is not free, let's talk about it next time."
Apologize for your brother?
Jiang Qiao was confused: "What does Mr. Sheng mean by this?"
Thank you all for your comments. I have read them carefully. Thank you very much for your likes and support. There will be a sequel about Jiang Chao, Song Qingying, Gu Xing and Wang Jie in the future. This world will not write about them.
