The girl next to her said, "What else? Nancy's Elena, of course it's her!! I just didn't expect that the person would be such a young and beautiful girl!"
"Tsk, I didn't see you speaking for her just now, but now you're praising her."
"Can I help?"
The girl next to her glanced at her and said, "Have you forgotten how harsh the words you, He Jiali, and Shen Xingyu just said were? If I helped her, you might scold me too."
Dazhe protects himself.
Very normal.
“…”
She didn't refute, but muttered, "My mom was trying every possible way to get another spot with Elena, but now that I've messed things up... I'm afraid it'll never happen in this lifetime."
"Not necessarily."
Another girl said, "I don't think she's the type to hold a grudge. She probably wouldn't bother with someone as clueless as you."
Others present were also talking about it.
Before the dinner was over, I had already collected a stack of business cards, some of which were for discussing cooperation, and some who wanted to make a private appointment.
Of course, more importantly, it is for the purpose of building relationships.
They think that as long as they have a relationship with me, they can do any project they want.
Jiang Yuheng also said on the spot that since I am Jiang Yunshu’s goddaughter, I am naturally his niece.
This way, even if I'm not willing to help them, as long as they leave an impression on me, they can feel more comfortable.
After all, any one of Jiang Yunshu, Zhou Fang, Fu Qichuan, and Jiang Yuheng, if picked out alone, is someone that no one present can easily afford to offend.
It is no exaggeration to say that this was the day I felt the most kindness in my life.
Probably, this is human nature.
But it also made me realize that I still need to work hard. Even though Nancy is developing rapidly, it is not enough to give me confidence in Jingcheng, where wealthy families are everywhere.
When I took another business card, Zhou Fang strode over and put his arm around my waist with a relaxed look.
"Mr. Zhou, Ms. Ruan, I saw a friend. You guys go ahead and do your work."
The person who handed me the business card left very tactfully.
Zhou Fang curled his lips and jokingly said, "A lot of men give you their business cards, don't they?"
"Yeah, are you jealous?"
I raised an eyebrow and looked at him. He chuckled, pinched my waist lightly, and whispered in my ear, "I'm not just jealous."
I felt a little itchy and couldn't help laughing, "Then what else do you want to do?"
Zhou Fang trailed off, "And he wants to eat people."
“!!!”
My face flushed and I looked around. Fortunately, everyone saw him coming and were considerate enough to make room for this ancestor.
䀴Of course I wouldn't be stupid enough to continue asking him what kind of person he wanted to eat.
...We are all so old, those who understand will understand.
…
Fu Qichuan returned to the banquet hall and after chatting with a few people who came up to talk to him, he greeted Jiang Yunshu.
Just leave.
Before leaving the banquet hall, he instinctively looked back and locked onto the woman in the crowd who once had only him in her heart and eyes.
But, Ruo was held in someone else's arms.
It seemed as if a clear line had been drawn between him and me.
On the way back, Bai Qingzhi felt that the air pressure in the car had dropped to the bottom, and the scarlet color between the man's fingers beside her never went out.
She didn't like cigarettes, but she still smoked all the way.
For a moment, she wondered, if it was Ruan Nanzhi in the car at this moment, would he still smoke like this?
After a long time, she finally couldn't hold it back any longer. She clutched her skirt with her fingers and pursed her lips, "Mr. Fu, my mother's illness...thank you."
The man seemed distracted. When he heard this, he frowned and glanced at her nonchalantly. His voice was very calm, without any emotion, "No need to thank me."
After Cen Ye went to handle this matter, he mentioned it to him.
He had some impression, but not a deep one.
He replied too coldly, not giving anyone room to continue. Bai Qingzhi looked at the man's cold and perfect profile and said, "The doctor told me that this is your debt. Don't worry, we will definitely pay it back once we have saved enough money."
"return?"
Fu Qichuan's thin lips suddenly curled into a mocking arc, "Then you can contact Cen Ye and transfer the money to his account."
Bai Qingzhi was stunned for a moment.
This was definitely not what she expected!
Fu Qichuan smiled, and his dark and deep eyes looked at Bai Qingzhi calmly without even examining her.
After just one glance, Bai Qingzhi lowered her head in embarrassment and avoided his sight!
This man is so scary!
Playing hard to get in front of a superior like him who knows human nature so well is simply a big mistake...
Fu Qichuan slowly put out his cigarette, his voice hoarse, but his aura still permeating. "Why do you think I asked you to come here yesterday?"
“…”
Bai Qingzhi's heart was beating like a drum, not because of anything else, but because of fear and nervousness.
Fu Qichuan looked down at her, peeling off her thoughts inch by inch, "Seeing Nanzhi, do you think you can be a substitute?"
She clutched the hem of her skirt tighter to suppress her body trembling, but fearing that she would not be able to do anything, she forced herself to look up at Fu Qichuan, "Then, Mr. Fu, can I?"
Fu Qichuan sneered and didn't give any answer. He just uttered two words, "Stop the car."
Qin Ze heard the subtle anger in his CEO's tone and slammed on the brakes to the side of the road.
Fu Qichuan leaned towards Bai Qingzhi.
Bai Qingzhi's eyes trembled slightly. When she thought she had a chance, Fu Qichuan's big hand reached over her body and pushed open the car door on her side.
The man withdrew his body and said in a cold voice, "Get out of the car!"
"I……"
Bai Qingzhi was stunned!
There was a traffic accident on the highway just now and it was severely congested. Qin Ze got off the highway and walked abroad. Now she didn't even know where she was!
Qin Ze got out of the car and walked to the door. "Please come in, Miss Bai."
A feeling of shame almost engulfed Bai Qingzhi!
Her legs felt weak as she got out of the car. With the last bit of consciousness left, she said, "This dress belongs to Miss Ruan, right? I'll wash it..."
“No need.”
Fu Qichuan said calmly, without even looking at her, "She has a lot of dresses like this, she won't let anyone else wear it."
She doesn't even want him anymore.
Why would you still want these leftover dresses?
Looking at the Maybach speeding away in the dark night, Bai Qingzhi's face lost all color and his eyes were filled with unwillingness.
If you have never been close to it, you won't have any desire for it.
But once you think it's possible, the desire will grow uncontrollably in your heart...
…
When the dinner was over, I relaxed and limped towards the lounge.
Zhou Fang glanced down and asked, "Are your shoes rubbing your feet?"
"Well, I guess it's blisters."
These two girls rarely wear high heels. Last night they wore a pair of slippers to match their dresses, which inevitably rubbed their feet.
Zhou Fang suddenly bent down, picked me up horizontally, and said with a deliberately stern face: "Why didn't you say anything when your feet were rubbing against each other?"
"Put me down now!"
I looked back and saw that some guests had not left yet, waiting to talk to Jiang Yunshu.
His actions attracted a lot of people's attention.
Zhou Fang smiled nonchalantly, "What are you afraid of? I'm your legitimate boyfriend, not your ex-husband."
The word "ex-husband" was bit too strong.
OK.
It is his character to settle accounts late but always on time.
I rubbed my nose in frustration, smiled at him insincerely, and joked, "SZ isn't a technology company, it should be... a vinegar factory?"
"Congratulations, you got it right."
After he finished speaking quietly, he pushed open the door of the lounge with his shoulder, carried me in, put me on the sofa, and sat beside me naturally.
When I was about to bend down to take off my shoes, he leaned over before me, held my ankle with one hand, took off my high heels, and when he saw the bruises on my heels, he frowned and spoke in a displeased tone.
"Ruan Nanzhi, you're really good at enduring pain. It's even rubbed to the point of bleeding, yet you still remain silent."
"It's just a little scrape, that's all."
Seeing him put my foot on his knee, I felt a little uncomfortable, curled my toes, and quickly said, "I brought a band-aid, just put it on and it will be fine."
