The guests have already said so, so it's really unreasonable for the hostess not to let them in.
Lu Jin's expression darkened slightly.
At the same time, Jian Ruoxi suddenly thought of something else.
Anyone who works in the entertainment industry is probably familiar with the name Mr. Zheng.
Mr. Zheng is usually very careful about his words and rarely does anything that puts people in a difficult position.
Making such a request today is completely unlike his usual style.
Perhaps someone is stirring things up.
Jian Ruoxi immediately thought of someone.
Jian Mengyu!
Just as Lu Jin had predicted, Jian Mengyu's visit this time was not well-intentioned.
The maid noticed that the two young ladies looked unwell and was unsure whether she should go out and refuse them again.
So he asked cautiously.
"Miss Jane, Miss, would you like me to take them to the hotel to rest?"
Lu Jin sneered, "Fine, let them in."
She wanted to see what kind of trick Jian Mengyu was up to by getting President Zheng to arrive early.
She wouldn't have cared so much if it weren't for her own script.
Who is General Manager Guan Zheng? She says that if she doesn't allow someone to come in, that person must be at least ten miles away from where she is staying.
After receiving the order, the maid glanced at Jian Ruoxi and, after obtaining Jian Ruoxi's consent, brought the two of them in.
Having learned their lesson from Li Anran's previous disturbance, the servants dared not leave the hall easily when she brought in strangers again.
In case anyone tries to harm Miss Jian and Miss Da, they can rush to their aid in time.
“Miss Lu, it’s been a long time. I heard you’ve come up with a new script, so I rushed over here without stopping.”
Lu Jin is a member of the Lu family, and no matter how senior he is, he doesn't dare to show the slightest arrogance when speaking to Lu Jin.
But what he couldn't understand was that Miss Lu, with the Lu family as a powerful backer, could easily have Young Master Lu invest in her.
Isn't it redundant to host a reception for other business tycoons?
The combined assets of everyone attending today's party probably don't even equal that of Young Master Lu.
"Mr. Zheng is really joking."
Lu Jin always maintained a certain distance from these other people in the business world, neither being close nor distant.
She struck the perfect balance, making conversations with her very comfortable for Mr. Zheng.
"Oh, by the way, I also brought someone with me today. Speaking of which, Miss Lu and Miss Jian know each other."
President Zheng waved to Jian Mengyu behind him.
That casual gesture was just like summoning an obedient lapdog.
"This is Jian Mengyu. I think you all already know her without me having to say it."
It really was her.
Lu Jin never expected that she would see Jian Mengyu again at her own party.
They thought their older brother had taught them enough lessons last time.
Logically speaking, these members of the Jian family should have been so afraid that they would have stayed far away and never bothered Ruoxi again.
I never expected there would be such a bold person in the Jian family.
Lu Jin glanced worriedly at Jian Ruoxi beside him.
Jian Ruoxi simply looked calmly at Jian Mengyu, who was smiling sweetly across from her, without saying a word or showing any other expression.
Just like how Jian Mengyu's sudden appearance had no effect on Ruoxi whatsoever.
"Sister," Jian Mengyu greeted Jian Ruoxi warmly.
"Since we parted last time, why hasn't my sister come home to visit? Is she still angry with us? Mom and Dad miss you so much, and I miss you too."
Upon hearing Jian Mengyu's words, Jian Ruoxi couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
Are you sure?
"If you miss me so much, why haven't I seen anyone looking for me?"
They'd miss her? That's a complete joke.
It's more likely they miss the money in her pocket.
In the past, even if the Jian family was poor, they would at least have some money from their mother's insurance policy, so they would always have a way out.
However, ever since Lu Shen forced them to hand over the insurance money, the Jian family has had no savings left.
Even if they had some, it would only be enough to get by.
These are far from enough to satisfy Jian Mengyu's ambition.
Jian Mengyu's smile froze instantly, and she quickly tried to salvage the situation, "Dad and Mom were just worried that you were still angry because of the previous misunderstanding, so they didn't dare to come directly to you."
"I'm afraid it will affect your work."
This was the explanation she came up with after her mind raced.
If she hadn't reacted quickly, she would definitely have been tricked by Jian Ruoxi.
When did Jian Ruoxi become so difficult to deal with?
Before she could figure out what had happened, she heard Jian Ruoxi's cold laugh again.
"Misunderstanding? Jian Mengyu, your memory seems to be a little bad."
"Let me kindly remind you, how can someone like you, who can't even remember things clearly, possibly remember the lines of a character in a script and the emotions of that character?"
She was actually outmaneuvered by Jian Ruoxi.
She wants to enter the entertainment industry and even become more successful than Jian Ruoxi.
Han Mingyi had previously said she would help her find a company to sign a contract with, but now, Han Mingyi and the company behind her are too busy to help her deal with Jian Ruoxi.
It's obvious that you can't count on them.
Left with no other choice, she then approached General Manager Zheng.
Mr. Zheng only said he would consider it, but did not say that he would definitely sign her.
"President Zheng?" Jian Mengyu called out to President Zheng in a sweet voice.
Her voice was deliberately high-pitched, carrying a hint of coquetry and a touch of pretense.
Upon hearing this, President Zheng felt a tingling sensation run through his head, but since he was currently at the Lu family's residence, he couldn't act recklessly.
He simply coughed and gave Jian Mengyu a warning look.
"We're out in the world, so we should know some manners."
Jian Mengyu noticed President Zheng's reaction and felt more confident about signing a contract with President Zheng's company.
She's probably going to... tonight.
Forget it, a little sacrifice now is nothing compared to becoming even more famous than Jian Ruoxi.
Jian Ruoxi wouldn't feel sorry for Jian Mengyu like President Zheng did.
She always knew that her younger sister was not a simple person.
"But you're quite self-aware; I'm still angry about what happened last time."
"Huh?" Jian Mengyu was completely unprepared for Jian Ruoxi's response.
Why doesn't she play by the rules?
According to President Zheng, she and Lu Jin are currently seeking investors for their new script. Isn't Jian Ruoxi afraid of angering the investors by saying this?
Jian Ruoxi glanced at Jian Mengyu with disdain. "So, you two had better keep up this good habit. Unless it's something important, you shouldn't show up in front of me anymore."
She was also afraid of making her unborn child feel disgusted.
Jian Mengyu froze on the spot, not knowing how to respond.
Is Jian Ruoxi really that direct?
