Chapter 8 The Banquet Was Caught
Chen Chi didn't know about Lu Chenzhou, and the system only knew some written introductions.
Each person had his own system, and after working on it for a whole day, both of them felt devastated.
"This is truly the last and second to last. They conspired for a long time, but in the end, they came up with nothing."
Under Chen Chi's mocking words, the system said, "If you don't like it cold, we can also steam it."
Chen Chi’s teeth were almost broken, “Why didn’t you say charcoal grilling?”
System, [Delicious!]
Sedimentation pond: ...
The boss is an idiot, and the colleague is also mentally retarded. Chen Chi wiped his face and left work feeling exhausted. Thinking about it, after get off work, he would have to go home and eat instant noodles...
I was too weak to look up at the sky from the sinking pond. This miserable life was simply unbearable.
But when he left the company building, suddenly, a bright red sports car stopped in front of him.
Chen Chi was able to remain calm in the face of such displays of wealth, but surprisingly, when the lowered car window rolled down, he saw an acquaintance.
“Secretary Shen.”
The crisp voice made Chen Chi quickly recall the other party's identity. He smiled again, changing his previous cow-like appearance. "Miss Ruan, I'm sorry, I forgot to put your thermal insulation..."
Before he could finish his words, Ruan Shangxue interrupted, "Get in the car."
Chen Chi smiled faintly, but did not get on the car.
It was obvious that he wouldn't go with Ruan until she gave him an explanation.
Ruan Shangxue pouted and said confidently, "There's a charity dinner coming up soon, and I want you to go!" Then she urged, "Hurry up! Parking is not allowed here, and I'll be fined soon. I don't mind the small amount, but if those snitching people at home find out, I'll be scolded again."
Chen Chi sighed, but didn't refuse this time, "How do you want me to accompany you?"
Ruan Shangxue, "Help me with some clothes first, and then come with me to the party. Don't worry, I'm not a stingy person. If you make me happy today, I will transfer money to you."
This is how Ruan Shangxue made friends in the past.
They cheered her up and she paid the bill.
The corner of Chen Chi's mouth twitched. It sounded like he was selling...
"There's no need to transfer the money, but isn't Miss Ruan too confident in me? What if I mess up?"
Ruan Shangxue stepped on the accelerator, and the sports car sped along the road. She said, "You can join the Lu Group and become Brother Lu's secretary. I believe in Brother Lu's vision."
Sedimentation pond: ...
***
Ruan family.
When Chen Chi saw Ruan Shangxue's room full of colorful and extremely dazzling clothes, he slammed the closet door shut.
This is like buying all the ugly clothes in the world and bringing them home.
"Let's buy new clothes." Chen Chi said, and then he noticed that Ruan's hairstyle had changed when he went to school. He no longer had thick straight bangs, but a smooth and full forehead.
Ruan Shangxue, "Okay, let's go to the mall now."
The banquet was at nine o'clock, and it was just past six o'clock now, so it was still early. Chen Chi was hungry, but fortunately Ruan Shangxue was not a stingy person. Before choosing, she specially let him eat a full stomach first.
As a result, Chen Chi became more sincere towards Ruan Shangxue, especially when they were choosing clothes. The salesperson took out one ugly piece of clothing after another and praised Ruan Shangxue nonsensically. Seeing the other person's shaken look, he finally understood why this child bought so many ugly clothes.
So she just looks fierce.
Chen Chi was only there for reference, so how could he possibly let her buy these ugly clothes? When Ruan Shangxue was about to swipe her card to pay, he extended his slender hand, speaking in a gentle and elegant tone, but with an extremely firm attitude, "I don't want any of these clothes."
Ruan Shangxue, "Ah?"
Shen Chi, "They are not suitable for you, you are suitable for better ones."
After hearing this, the salesperson was speechless. They couldn't offend their VIP customer just to sell their clothes, even though this customer was very easy to fool.
Ruan Shangxue was reborn under Shen Chi's manipulation, but before leaving, she thought of Shen Chi participating with her, so she gave him a high-end suit.
As soon as he opened his mouth, he spoke in his usual arrogant tone, "As my escort, if I dress too cheaply, others will laugh at me."
That’s true, but the clothes he bought for Chen Chi were the most expensive.
Chen Chi gladly accepted her gift and thanked her with a smile.
Ruan Shangxue actually already had a lot of good feelings towards Shen Chi.
Not only is he good-looking, but everything he does and says never seems deliberate. It's very comfortable to be with him.
Charity dinner, celebrities gathered.
At such banquets, even the well-known artists who often appear in front of the camera become supporting roles.
Although the Ruan family is good, Ruan Shangxue is just an illegitimate daughter, and her appearance did not attract much attention, except for a small group in the corner.
Without Chen Chi asking, the system had already identified the gossip, [Yo, a cannon fodder group. Ruan Shangxue was pushed into bullying the male lead, and after Ruan Shangxue was cannon fodder, they took on the male lead, and each one of them was dealt with by the male lead, tsk tsk tsk…]
[Speaking of which, the reason they bullied Ruan Shangxue was because their family all clung to Madam Ruan's leg. They looked down on Ruan Shangxue in words and deeds, but they didn't think about how Ruan Shangxue came into being. Wasn't it just Old Man Ruan's own messing around? If he could control his arse, would Ruan Shangxue have been created?]
The words are rough but the logic is sound, but the system is too rough.
[Chi Zi, let me tell you, if Ruan Shangxue hadn't differentiated into O at the age of 18, she wouldn't be able to enter the Ruan family now.]
These words made Chen Chi understand what caused Ruan Shangxue's temper.
"Hey, isn't this Miss Ruan?"
"What Miss Ruan? In terms of ranking, she can't be this big; in terms of background, she is even less important."
"Ruan Shangxue, where are your lackeys? Why didn't you bring them today? And you brought a male lackey instead."
…
This group of people were chattering one after another. Everyone seemed to be smiling, but the malice was overwhelming.
In the past, Ruan Shangxue would have exploded, but today, she suddenly looked at the sinking pool.
Chen Chi did not disappoint her. When facing the attack of the small group, he smiled slightly and said politely and gentlemanly, "Hello, I am Chen Chi, the secretary of Mr. Lu Chenzhou of the Lu Group."
Although she was just a small secretary, the prefix Lu Chenzhou stunned everyone.
As the saying goes, when beating a dog, you must look at the owner first. You can look down on the secretary, but who dares to look down on Lu Chenzhou's secretary?
[That's awesome, Xiao Chizi.] The system was also stunned. [You can even introduce yourself like that!]
Shen Chi, "This is called borrowing power."
The small group that had surrounded them with malicious intent just now now had strange and distorted expressions.
As for the sinking pond, although it looks good, can it be eaten with just good looks? They still look down on it.
But now it’s different…
They stood there in a daze, unwilling to leave just like that, and could only look at Ruan Shangxue angrily.
At this moment, a low and cold voice came from behind.
The originally lively banquet fell silent because of this sound.
“Secretary Shen.”
In an instant, everyone looked towards the sink in the corner.
