Chapter 94 Zheng Family Banquet
He Huaisheng picked up the papers one by one, the seeds of hatred already sown in his heart.
How dare you treat me like this! When I succeed in the future, you'll be the first one to pay the price!
Manager Liu could easily see the resentment hidden in him, but he was never afraid. Only after He Huaisheng left the company did he slowly report the situation to Yan Lingyu.
He Huaisheng did have some ability after all. After being humiliated four times, he finally came up with a solution that satisfied Manager Liu.
Jiang Zhiyao's leg has recovered, and He Huaisheng took her along to negotiate.

An family.
Shen Tongtong placed a proposal on An Shixia's desk.
An Shixia held a higher position, and Shen Tongtong had always been her subordinate, which was the surprise An Shixia had mentioned before.
Shen Tongtong was so excited that she almost shouted.
"The order has been placed. The partner said there's a banquet tonight. Do you want to go?"
An Shixia glanced at it casually. This project was a collaboration with the Zheng family, and there should be quite a few people attending the Zheng family's banquet.
"Get ready, let's do it together."
An Shixia glanced at the time; it was almost time to get off work.
She sent Yan Lingyu a message.
Are you going to the Zheng family's banquet tonight?
Yan Lingyu was watching Manager Liu and He Huaisheng's proposal on the monitor when he heard the ringtone. Without hesitation, he picked up his phone, and then a slight smile appeared on his lips.
Since that's the question, then she definitely has to go.
"Should I come pick you up?"
An Shixia was delighted to see that he replied instantly.
【I'm going with Tongtong, see you there~】
Yan Lingyu replied with an "okay," then glanced at his watch and felt that time was passing very slowly.
I wish it would be nighttime right away.

The Zheng family invited some of the most prominent families and companies in the capital, including He Huaisheng, who was representing Mairiel Company.
Both he and Jiang Zhiyao were attending this kind of party for the first time. Although they tried to keep their eyes to themselves, they couldn't help but look around.
Looking at the bottles of wine costing tens of thousands of yuan casually placed in the hall, as well as those unidentifiable pastries, He Huaisheng couldn't help but think to himself, is this the extravagance of the rich?
Jiang Zhiyao searched around and finally spotted the person she was looking for in a corner.
She gently tugged at He Huaisheng's arm: "Brother Sheng, I saw a friend. I'm going to talk to her for a bit. Can you wait here for me?"
He Huaisheng nodded: "I'll wait for you here. Go ahead without worry."
Jiang Zhiyao walked around a few tables and stood next to Zhou Xuerou: "You said you have a way to help me deal with An Shixia, what way?"
They chatted on their phones for a long time, but hadn't made any plans yet; today's cocktail party was the best option.
"As long as you give her this packet of medicine and take her to the room, you don't need to worry about the rest."
Zhou Xuerou swirled her wine glass, and despite doing something wrong, her tone showed no remorse whatsoever.
From her conversation with Jiang Zhiyao, she also learned about An Shixia's identity. She was hesitant at first, but why not have a fool as an accomplice?
Even if she fails in the end, she can wash her hands of it completely.
Jiang Zhiyao was stunned for a moment; she hadn't expected Zhou Xuerou's method to be like this.
She could already guess that there must be people arranged by Zhou Xuerou in the room. When Shi An and Shi Xia were ruined, Yan Lingyu would never look at her again.
That's a brilliant plan.
However, it's possible to kill two birds with one stone: Zhou Xuerou wants to get revenge on An Shixia, and Zhou Xuerou wants to get Yan Lingyu.
"Alright, take the things. There are eyes everywhere here. Don't let anyone know I know you."
Zhou Xuerou shoved the things into Jiang Zhiyao's hands and turned to leave.
Jiang Zhiyao held it tightly, then carefully put it into her bag, and naturally walked to He Huaisheng's side, taking his arm.
"Who was that friend you just met? He looks kind of familiar."
He Huaisheng glanced over there unintentionally and felt that he seemed to have seen that person somewhere before.
Jiang Zhiyao's heart tightened, but she quickly covered it up: "It's just a classmate from university. It's normal that you've met her."
He Huaisheng didn't think much of it; it was indeed a possibility.
I think An Shixia will be at this party too, right?
His eyes searched around, but unfortunately, he didn't see An Shixia.
"This must be Manager He, right? You're so young, yet you're able to represent the company at this party. I've heard so much about you!"
A middle-aged man walked up to He Huaisheng with a wine glass in his hand, speaking in a loud voice.
Although He Huaisheng had never met him, he was very familiar with him. He was a business partner of the company, and He had seen his picture on his computer.
"You must be Mr. Zhang? I've heard so much about you before. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Communication between men often involves sharing drinks and pleasantries. They clink glasses, exchange a few words, and that's how friendship is established.
"And who is this person next to Manager He?"
Mr. Zhang turned his gaze to Jiang Zhiyao, looking her up and down as if she were an object.
He Huaisheng stepped forward, blocking his view: "This is my sister. She came to the party with me."
Mr. Zhang felt a little disappointed. He had thought this was a girl He Huaisheng had brought from outside, but it turned out to be his sister. His expectations were dashed, and he felt a bit regretful.
"I had a great time with the manager, now I'm going over there to see a friend."
He Huaisheng pretended not to understand his thoughts and raised his glass to say goodbye: "Let's have a drink together sometime."
Jiang Zhiyao looked rather unwell. She thought that coming here would increase her value, but she didn't expect to be treated like an object.
"Brother Sheng, I'm going to the restroom."
Without waiting for He Huaisheng's reply, she turned and left.
He Huaisheng didn't wander around either, afraid that Jiang Zhiyao wouldn't be able to find him when she returned.
Just then, An Shixia pulled Shen Tongtong in from outside.
He Huaisheng's eyes lit up instantly; he had thought An Shixia wouldn't be coming over tonight.
"Shi Xia, you've arrived."
He Huaisheng's gaze fell on An Shixia. Her clothes were different from those at school. She wore a simple dress, which made her look more mature and composed.
An Shixia has a great figure; even in a dress without any embellishments, she looks like a model, with her legs being straight and long, making her impossible to look away from.
He Huaisheng's gaze remained fixed, as if he were admiring the scene.
An Shixia frowned, took a few steps into the hall, and tried to avoid He Huaisheng's gaze.
But He Huaisheng did not do as she wished, and actually walked directly towards her.
"Shi Xia, I heard you've become a manager at An's. Congratulations!"
He didn't say anything else special, just these few simple words, and with so many people watching, if An Shixia didn't reply, people would definitely say she was impolite.
An Shixia didn't want him to get too cocky, so she kept it business: "Manager He has also become a manager, that's great. Or do you think I'm not capable enough to be a manager?"
