"What a coincidence, Miss Shen, we meet again."
Qiao Zhen greeted Chen Yan with an embarrassed expression, but in reality, she was thinking about how to brush it off.
After all that has happened, Qiao Zhen's attitude towards Shen Yan has become almost nonchalant. She used to feel guilty, but now she is unwilling to face her.
"I didn't expect to run into Miss Qiao here. How about we discuss how the academic trip went?"
After saying that, Shen Yan grabbed Qiao Zhen's hand without saying another word and walked towards the center of the stage.
"etc!"
Qiao Zhen became anxious and tried to break free from Chen Yan's grasp, but Chen Yan had done it on purpose, so how could she let her have her way?
Shen Yan gripped Qiao Zhen's wrists tightly with both hands, and Qiao Zhen could not struggle and could only be pulled up.
Soon the two stood in the center of the stage. Shen Yan glanced triumphantly at Qiao Zhen beside her, and then smiled.
"Hello everyone, Ms. Qiao and I will now share our insights on this academic topic. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause."
After Chen Yan finished speaking, she quietly pushed Qiao Zhen to the other side and then gave a passionate speech on the stage.
Qiao Zhen looked extremely embarrassed, but given the situation, she couldn't say anything to save face, so she could only stand awkwardly to the side.
Just then, she saw Lu Zheng in the crowd.
Lu Zheng remained expressionless, but his dark eyes were still fixed on Qiao Zhen.
For some reason, Qiao Zhen suddenly felt a little resentful.
Just then, Shen Yan finished speaking. She gestured to Qiao Zhen and then said...
“Miss Qiao, now it’s your turn to share your insights.”
This seminar offers insights into the economic downturn in the city's entertainment industry.
Chen Yan's answer reflects the sentiments of the vast majority of people. Due to the recent virus outbreak, many people are facing financial difficulties, and naturally, they don't have much time to spend on entertainment.
Undeniably, Shen Yan's words were quite correct, but Qiao Zhen wanted to see things from a different perspective.
“I admit that Miss Shen’s words make a lot of sense, and I agree with her ideas.”
Hearing this, Chen Yan became even more smug, but she still put on a very humble expression, which made people feel quite disrespectful.
"However, I believe that although we have experienced a virus outbreak, not all industries are stagnant. We can start with these industries instead of making those already precarious industries even worse off."
Upon hearing this, the crowd began to whisper among themselves. Indeed, Shen Yan had been emphasizing how to extort money from those people.
Upon seeing this, Shen Yan couldn't help but freeze, her little face immediately scrunching up like a bun.
Then, she glared fiercely at Qiao Zhen.
Looking at her ferocious appearance, Qiao Zhen felt somewhat innocent.
"I just said what I wanted to say."
Qiao Zhen shrugged; she hadn't done anything wrong.
After they finished speaking, the two stepped off the stage, and Lu Zheng immediately went to Qiao Zhen's side.
"Are you alright?"
Hearing Lu Zheng's concerned words, Qiao Zhen shook her head: "Of course I'm fine, I'm very strong inside."
"That's good, I thought..."
Lu Zheng raised an eyebrow, somewhat indifferent.
"How was it? I did a great job, didn't I?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Zheng nodded: "Yes, your performance on stage just now really impressed me. It seems that making you my date was the right decision."
Hearing this, Qiao Zhen suddenly became somewhat unconvinced and retorted.
"No, it was the right decision to make you my date before."
Hearing Qiao Zhen's uncompromising tone, Lu Zheng was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled and said, "Fine, whatever you say."
Seeing his accommodating manner, Qiao Zheng grunted and got into the car to go back.
On the bus, Qiao Zhen thought of this matter and couldn't help but say something.
"You deliberately got me to attend this seminar, didn't you?"
Lu Zheng nodded and agreed readily.
"However, your performance has confirmed that my idea was correct."
"Does Mr. Lu trust me that much?"
After saying that, she saw that Lu Zheng didn't say anything, so she took out her phone out of boredom, intending to casually read some news.
Qiao Zhen was shocked when she looked up the news; many of the headlines on the homepage were about her.
It turns out that the commotion Qiao Zhen caused at the press conference today was filmed and posted online, unexpectedly going viral.
With the popularity she gained from her previous live streams, Qiao Zhen is now considered a somewhat well-known internet celebrity.
Thinking about this, Qiao Zhen felt a bit conflicted and didn't know how to deal with the matter.
"What's wrong?"
On the other side, Lu Zheng saw Qiao Zhen's complicated expression and couldn't help but ask.
"I'm fine..." Qiao Zhen was about to make up an excuse, but thinking about this matter, she still sighed and asked, "Didn't you see today's news?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Zheng frowned, then took out his phone and started browsing the news.
Seeing him watching the news, Qiao Zhen couldn't help but chatter on and on.
"I really didn't expect that I would become famous, and that it would happen so suddenly."
"brush--"
Suddenly, a sharp, urgent sound rang out. Before Qiao Zhen could react, she was forced to lean forward.
Lu Zheng slammed on the brakes and pulled the car over to the side of the road, then began to carefully study the news.
Qiao Zhen was annoyed by his overreaction.
Why did you suddenly stop the car? You scared me to death!
