Hua Tao handed over his hand, clenching his fist indignantly: "A wild man surnamed Meng."
Tang Yue paused, his hand holding the phone still.
The atmosphere at the scene suddenly plummeted to freezing point.
Qin Feng: "..."
Holy crap, we're doomed, we're doomed, we're doomed!
The attempt to flatter backfired.
He didn't dare look at his boss's face; it must be as black as the bottom of a pot. He already had a premonition that he'd probably be sent to Africa to mine coal.
Qin Feng took a deep breath, forced a smile, and turned away, his heart skipping a beat. The boss, far from being sullen, was smiling, seemingly unconcerned.
That's even scarier!
"Boss," Qin Feng cautiously suggested, "If guests bring their families, it will complicate the entire event process. How about we remove this perk and replace it with something else?"
Tang Yue put down his phone, slowly picked up the teacup on the table, and took a sip.
"For example, I could have dinner with the CEO tonight?" Qin Feng was secretly planning to find an excuse to take the other two guests away so that the boss and Miss Yu could have a private date.
Tang Yue glanced at him sideways with a half-smile: "Are you planning to make me reveal my identity ahead of time?" Even within Aosheng, only three people knew that he was the real boss.
Qin Feng met those unfathomable black eyes, and a chill ran through him. He lowered his head: "Boss, I was wrong."
Beside him, Hua Tao huddled in his chair, not daring to move, trying to make himself as inconspicuous as possible. Wasn't it Qin Feng who suggested bringing family members? Why the sudden change of heart? And the boss looks so angry.
"Tap tap..."
Tang Yue tapped the table with his knuckles, his eyelashes drooping as he lowered his gaze in deep thought. With each tap, Qin Feng and Hua Tao's hearts pounded.
The atmosphere was incredibly oppressive.
"The original benefits don't need to be changed, but let's add one more: two family members can bring them in." A brilliant idea flashed in Qin Feng's mind: "Just say it's VIP guest service."
The tapping sound suddenly stopped.
Tang Yue smiled and said, "The release of 'Survival' has already been delayed by half a month. We can't afford any mishaps this time."
Qin Feng knew his boss had agreed, and he let out a long sigh of relief, leaning back in his chair like a fish out of water. "Miss Yu, please, please, this time you absolutely must take the boss with you."
Then, Yu Wan, who had just walked halfway, received another message.
[Unknown number: Ms. Yu, this is Hua Tao, Marketing Director of Ausen Games. I just received a notification that you can bring two family members. Your spot is valid until the event begins.]
Yu Wan casually put her phone back in her pocket, thinking to herself: "For such a large group as Ausheng, which has held so many events, to make such a small mistake is simply unacceptable!"
Just then, a car suddenly stopped beside her.
The car window slowly rolled down.
The woman had long, wavy, wine-red hair and slightly upturned eyeliner, making her stunningly beautiful to the point of being aggressive.
"Miss Yu, it's nice to meet you. My name is Zhang Hong."
Yu Wan raised an eyebrow and narrowed her eyes. She recognized that highly recognizable face; it often appeared alongside Xiao Ling on various social media platforms.
Beside him, the slender, white fingers with distinct knuckles tightened their grip.
She casually withdrew her gaze, showing no emotion, and continued walking forward.
Zhang Hong was stunned for a moment, then quickly opened the car door and got out, catching up with her and blocking her way: "Wait, Miss Yu, I have something to tell you."
Yu Wan's brows furrowed with impatience. She stood still, slightly raising her chin: "Speak."
His attitude was casual and arrogant.
Ever since Zhang Hong mentored Xiao Ling, she had become accustomed to being fawned over. Coming to see Yu Wan in person was already a great favor, yet she was treated coldly. A nameless anger welled up inside her, and her face instantly darkened. She forced a cold smile and said firmly, "This isn't the place to talk. Get in the car, let's find a coffee shop to chat."
Yu Wan glanced at her indifferently, turned her toes slightly, and brushed past her.
“Yu Wan…” Zhang Hong subconsciously reached for her hand, but Yu Wan easily dodged it. Her face immediately turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and she said angrily, “Don’t push your luck. If it weren’t for your mother…”
The sound stopped abruptly.
Zhang Hong's heart skipped a beat, and she couldn't help but shiver.
Those dark eyes shone with a chilling sharpness, as cold as frost.
"Miss Zhang, please watch your words." Yu Wan tugged at the corners of her mouth, her smile cold and indifferent: "My mother died a long time ago." She only had one relative in this world, and that was Old Man Yu!
Zhang Hong was momentarily stunned by her intimidating aura, but only for a moment. Then she became even more enraged and shouted at her back, "At least she gave birth to you. For that alone, you should be grateful."
If Xiao Ling hadn't been in a bad state, and the psychologist hadn't said she needed someone to help her, she would never have lowered herself and risked being exposed to find Yu Wan. She never expected Yu Wan to be so tactless; it infuriated her.
Yu Wan paused, put one hand in her pocket, and turned back.
Zhang Hong thought smugly, "She's just a young girl; I have plenty of ways to easily subdue her."
"Name your price," Yu Wan said lazily.
Zhang Hong was stunned: "What?"
"Didn't you come here for money? How much was I worth? Name your price." Yu Wan tried her best to finish the sentence, each word revealing deep frustration.
Zhang Hong: "..." Wait, what kind of unexpected development is this?
"Ten million?"
"..." Who am I? Where am I?
Yu Wan: "Fifty million?"
Is the Feng family about to fall?
Tsk.
They actually have to rely on Xiao Ling to get money from selling their daughter!
Zhang Hong waved her hand, looking flustered, and said, "No, I..."
"I understand." Yu Wan took out her phone: "What's your number?"
Zhang Hong: "136..." What did you learn?
Yu Wan wrote down the number and gripped her phone tightly: "My lawyer will sign the contract with you in a moment."
Zhang Hong: "...What contract?"
Yu Wan had already put on her headphones and continued walking forward.
"drop!"
Zhang Hong wanted to chase after him, but was stopped by a traffic policeman: "Miss, you are not allowed to park here. Here is your ticket."
When she looked up again, Yu Wan had already disappeared, so she had no choice but to sit back in the car in frustration.
-
"Hey? Yun Chu, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell?"
Inside the car, Wang Minlin looked worriedly at her friend beside her. She looked out the car window but saw nothing.
Ji Yun Chu came to her senses and felt a faint pain in her palm. She relaxed her fist as usual, turned her head and smiled: "I practiced violin until the early hours of the morning last night, and I was a little sleepy."
But I was utterly shocked.
She couldn't be mistaken; how could Yu Wan be with Zhang Hong?
For some reason, I felt vaguely uneasy.
Ji Yun Chu touched her face.
Her pride made her subconsciously deny the guess that had come to mind.
