If it were anyone else, they would have been too embarrassed to stay after being spoken to like that by Miss Tan, but Yang Zixuan's skin was incredibly thick, and he still stood smiling beside Miss Tan.
The reason why Yang Zixuan went to such lengths and shamelessly to curry favor with Miss Tan was because Miss Tan was not only talented and beautiful, but more importantly, her family background was not simple.
This Miss Tan's full name is Tan Lingshan. Her family is wealthy and powerful. The Tan family is one of the most prominent families in Shanghai. They have members in both the business world and the political arena, and none of them are ordinary people.
So, as everyone says, in Shanghai you can mess with anyone, but you can't mess with the Tan family.
Yang Zixuan thought that if he could win Tan Lingshan's heart, he would have everything he wanted.
Therefore, even if the path ahead is rugged, Yang Zixuan will forge ahead bravely.
Murong Yuyan was naturally unhappy to see that Liu Xiaoyuan didn't stand up and come over, but in the end she still pulled Tan Lingshan along with her.
Tan Lingshan was quite curious about who Liu Xiaoyuan was, that he could make a big star like Murong Yuyan lower herself to go to him.
It's not a good sign when a woman becomes curious about a man, and now Tan Lingshan is curious about Liu Xiaoyuan.
When Yang Zixuan saw Murong Yuyan pulling Tan Lingshan toward Liu Xiaoyuan, he was instantly enraged, his heart filled with burning anger towards Liu Xiaoyuan, the farmer.
In Yang Zixuan's view, it was extremely displeasing that Liu Xiaoyuan, a farmer, could win the favor of Murong Yuyan, a powerful and influential woman, while he, a wealthy young master, was treated like air by Tan Lingshan and Murong Yuyan.
"Murong, what a coincidence! I never expected to run into you here." Liu Xiaoyuan stood up from his chair when he saw Murong Yuyan walk up to him.
Murong Yuyan gave Liu Xiaoyuan a disapproving look and asked, "Liu Xiaoyuan, what are you doing sitting here?"
Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "I came with a friend. I'm here to watch the fun. You're here to join in the fun too?"
Murong Yuyan said, "Yes, I came here to join in the fun, but I didn't expect to run into you by such a coincidence."
Seeing that Murong Yuyan was so engrossed in chatting with Liu Xiaoyuan that she had completely forgotten about herself, Tan Lingshan immediately interjected, "Yuyan, why don't you introduce him to me and let me meet this handsome guy?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaoyuan immediately smiled and said, "Hello, beautiful lady, my name is Liu Xiaoyuan. You can call me Xiaoyuan or my full name. Of course, if you don't mind, you can also call me Brother Liu."
This was the first time Tan Lingshan had met a man like Liu Xiaoyuan. As the little princess of the Tan family, Tan Lingshan could be said to have grown up with a silver spoon in her mouth.
Therefore, as she grew up, everyone who knew her identity as the little princess of the Tan family would fawn over her and be obsequious to her. Even those who didn't know her would say flattering things because of her beauty.
However, Liu Xiaoyuan was an oddball; this guy actually made her call him Brother Liu, which made Tan Lingshan even more curious about Liu Xiaoyuan.
“I’m afraid you won’t dare to answer if I call you Brother Liu,” Tan Lingshan said with a smile.
Liu Xiaoyuan thought to himself, "Even if you are the daughter of the Heavenly King, I would still dare to respond if you called me Brother Liu."
"As long as you dare to call, I dare to answer," Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile.
Upon hearing this, Yang Zixuan immediately interjected, "Liu Xiaoyuan, don't get cocky just because you're given a little credit. Who is Miss Tan? I'm afraid you can't handle having her call you Brother Liu."
Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "Yang Zixuan, right? Whether I can accept Miss Tan calling me Brother Liu is none of your business, right? I think you're just meddling in other people's business."
Tan Lingshan glanced at Yang Zixuan and said, "Your name is Yang Zixuan, right?"
Yang Zixuan was overjoyed to hear Tan Lingshan speak to him and said with a smile, "Yes, I am Yang Zixuan, Miss Tan."
Tan Lingshan looked at Yang Zixuan and said, "Please stop following me around like a shadow. I hate shadows the most."
Upon hearing Tan Lingshan's words, Yang Zixuan was stunned, but he didn't dare to offend her, so he could only obediently walk away.
After Yang Zixuan left, Liu Xiaoyuan invited Murong Yuyan and Tan Lingshan to sit down.
"Xiao Yuan, what brings you to Shanghai?" Murong Yuyan asked with a smile. She knew that Liu Xiaoyuan wouldn't come to Shanghai for no reason.
Liu Xiaoyuan said, "Would you believe me if I said I came to Shanghai to see you?"
When Murong Yuyan heard Liu Xiaoyuan's words, even though she knew he was lying, she still felt as sweet as if she had eaten honey.
"You liar, don't try to fool me." Murong Yuyan gave Liu Xiaoyuan a flirtatious look and said, "How did you know I was in Shanghai?"
Liu Xiaoyuan said with a smile, "Don't you know I'm very familiar with your company's boss? As for where you are, big star, I only need to make one phone call and your boss will tell me."
"Are you telling the truth?" Murong Yuyan actually believed Liu Xiaoyuan's nonsense.
Damn! Liu Xiaoyuan didn't expect Murong Yuyan to believe him. He thought to himself, "I was just teasing you. You can't take it seriously."
Sitting to the side, Tan Lingshan knew that Liu Xiaoyuan was just talking nonsense. She smiled and, without waiting for Liu Xiaoyuan to answer, said to Murong Yuyan, "Yuyan, of course Brother Liu is telling the truth. Otherwise, why would he come to the party?"
At this moment, Murong Yuyan was even more convinced that Liu Xiaoyuan had really come for her. Overjoyed, she showed a shy expression on her face.
Murong Yuyan already had feelings for him, and now that Liu Xiaoyuan had said such things, it only made Murong Yuyan misunderstand even more.
Now look what happened. It's all my fault for being so talkative and making that joke.
Normally, having a girlfriend like Murong Yuyan would be something most people would be incredibly lucky to have, but Liu Xiaoyuan was having a headache because he already had a lot of women involved with him. If he were to get involved with Murong Yuyan as well, it would only cause him more trouble.
"Mr. Murong, what I was saying just now was actually..." Liu Xiaoyuan was about to explain when Tan Lingshan immediately interrupted him.
"Actually, what you just said was what you really felt, right?" Tan Lingshan said with a smile, and then gave Liu Xiaoyuan a grin.
Holy crap! Is this woman some kind of clown hired by the monkeys, here specifically to mess with me?
Liu Xiaoyuan was a little confused. Why would Tan Lingshan do this? What benefit would it bring her?
Liu Xiaoyuan looked at Tan Lingshan with a puzzled expression, but Tan Lingshan smiled and said, "Don't look at me like that, it'll make me shy, you know?"
