Hilton, a nearby venue, luxurious and high-profile.
In the April evening, before darkness fell, the neon lights were already vying for attention in the afterglow of the sunset. Today, in the rooftop auditorium, Xia Changlong and his wife were hosting a welcome reception for Yang Yajing.
All the shareholders arrived with their families in large groups. Almost all the executives were also present, and the partners were full of enthusiasm and eager to show their curiosity.
Of course, not all of these people were on Xia Changlong's side; there were also people from Xia Junhu, Xia Tengyun, and Xia Caixia's side.
Xia Caixia's husband's family runs hotels and nightclubs. Although they are not as powerful as the Xia family, they are still influential figures.
It was probably because his family owned a nightclub that Xia Yuxuan developed that kind of unruly behavior typical of a spoiled brat.
In such settings, it has become an unwritten rule that money-loving elders associate with the powerful and wealthy, while young people are more likely to seek marriage partners.
Yang Yajing and Zhou Pengfei entered the venue right on time.
Both of them had been dressed up by Madam Xia a few days ago.
Zhou Pengfei wore a black velvet three-piece tailored suit with gold embroidery, and his leather shoes were polished to a shine. His understated yet elegant Rolex watch and diamond cufflinks peeked out with every movement.
A red shirt paired with a black tie with subtle patterns, the tie stud in the center of which subtly glitters with luxury.
Yang Yajing wore a red and black V-neck dress that accentuated her shapely waist and hips. The hem flared out at mid-thigh, with layers of satin and chiffon irregularly interwoven.
The neckline also features some ruffles, and two gold metal chains hang down from one shoulder, connecting to a ruby bracelet at the wrist.
The necklace around her neck was also adorned with red and black gemstones, festive and eye-catching, yet not vulgar. As she walked, the tiny diamonds on the heels of her high heels were faintly visible.
The sight of this attractive couple walking into the venue quickly drew the attention of most of the attendees.
During their conversation, it became clear that this woman was the main character of the day. However, no one present knew who the man was.
Mr. and Mrs. Xia quickly walked over to them. After exchanging a few pleasantries, Mrs. Xia took Yang Yajing's arm and led her away.
Xia Changlong and Zhou Pengfei each took a glass of red wine from the waiter's plate and started chatting.
It's worth noting that Xia Changlong wouldn't initiate conversation unless he was truly familiar with someone. And judging from their expressions, they seemed to be having a pleasant chat, which only fueled the curiosity.
Who among them wouldn't want to get closer and listen to their conversation? It's just a pity that while they have the desire, they don't have the courage.
Fortunately, Xia Changlong still maintained his status and demeanor; otherwise, this seemingly high-class conversation wouldn't have been so sophisticated.
because……
Have you been eating more instant noodles lately?
"Hehe! It's being patched now!"
"Any thoughts? When are you getting engaged?"
"That... is being secretly planned."
"A secret plot? How come I don't know anything about it?"
"You want to participate too?"
"Isn't that obvious?"
Do you have QQ?
"What the heck?"
"You invested in his company's stock, but you don't know about his products?"
"My investment?"
"Yes! It's the chat and communication tool that we young people love to use these days."
Where can I buy it?
"No need to buy it! Just download it, it's free!" Zhou Pengfei thought Xia Changlong was being a bit outdated. "There's even a mobile version now!"
"Mobile version? Then get me one?" Xia Changlong said, taking out his phone.
Zhou Pengfei took Xia Changlong's phone and downloaded the app within minutes, then registered an account.
Do you want to get a verified account?
"Why would you need a 'V' badge?"
After Zhou Pengfei explained, Xia Changlong shook his head: "No, just do it for fun, don't let it get involved in work."
"Okay! What nickname would you like?"
"Let's use Boss Xia."
Zhou Pengfei quickly added Xia Changlong's account to his own and then pulled him into the marriage proposal preparation group.
At this time of day, everyone is off work and online. When they saw that Boss Xia had been added to the group, things got lively.
However, Xia Changlong's typing speed is still a problem; his previous question had barely been posted when it was already flooded with comments.
Zhou Pengfei had no choice but to step in and tell them he was having a cocktail party and they could talk tomorrow. He was then called to take pictures of the scene, and he even took close-up photos of the two of them and sent them to them.
Yu Yue: Wow, so many handsome men and beautiful women! It's a pity I didn't go!
Chen Jiaoyun understood and directly told him to be careful to avoid bees and butterflies.
"Did you hear that! Be a little more sensible! If I find out you're being fickle and flirting, see if I don't ruin your proposal!" Xia Changlong commented instantly at Zhou Pengfei.
"Boss Xia, I've learned quite a few mosquito-repelling tricks from Yang Yajing! You can just watch the show, but please give me more advice on proposing?"
"Yes! You successfully proposed, so I'll give you a big gift! I guarantee there will be many surprises!" Xia Changlong said happily.
Because the Xia family had a partnership with Quan Wukang, he also arrived at the scene and quickly replied to Chen Jiaoyun's message: I've arrived, I'll keep an eye on him for you!
I just saw the news when Quan Wukang came in from the doorway.
After graduation, this person finally stopped having red hair. After all, when a young man was doing business, that red hair caused him a lot of trouble.
But he wasn't exactly low-key either; he had his hair permed into a trendy curl and dyed it brown.
Wearing an olive green corduroy suit, brown leather shoes, a beige satin shirt, and a matching tie, he looks quite stylish.
However, he is still somewhat lacking in height, and his looks are only above average.
