Just as Qin Mubei was about to speak again, a clear, cold voice rang out: "Let's see who dares to search!"
Everyone's eyes turned to that direction, and the crowd automatically parted to make way for them.
Three men arrived.
One was a refined and cultured middle-aged man in his forties; he was Mr. Fang, the representative of the organizer of this charity gala, from Wanhua Group.
The other man, petite with a slightly balding head, was Wu Zhongcheng of Hongda Industrial, the person Ni Sitian and her team were going to interview. He was also the husband of this shrewish Mrs. Wu.
And the last one...
When Ni Sitian saw the gloomy displeasure on the man's handsome face, she pouted. She couldn't hold back the grievances she had suffered that night. Her eyes reddened, tears welled up, and she stared straight at him.
"Manager Wang, what's going on?" General Manager Fang asked the public relations manager with a stern face.
The public relations manager whispered the whole story to President Fang, his words naturally carrying an intention to smooth things over for Mrs. Wu. Since Wanhua would be collaborating with Wu Zhongcheng's company soon, even though they despised the woman's outburst, in this setting, profit came first, and they had no choice but to appease the young woman.
Seeing his wife lose her composure in this situation, Wu Zhongcheng frowned in displeasure, walked over, and said in a deep voice, "What nonsense are you talking about!"
"I'm not being ridiculous. Such a big ring just disappeared a moment ago. What's wrong with me searching?" Mrs. Wu's voice quieted down a bit, and then she turned to Mr. Fang and said, "Mr. Fang, your security here is really bad. How could you let someone like this in?"
Mr. Fang frowned, and his expression turned somewhat unpleasant.
Wu Zhongcheng was originally a farmer who started his business by raising aquatic products. Later, he went into the furniture industry in Yihai City. Although he was not well-educated, he was good at studying unorthodox methods and had been quite successful in business over the years.
As her husband's wealth increased, Mrs. Wu became increasingly arrogant at banquets.
Those ladies who were born into privilege simply couldn't be bothered to argue with her, but she really thought she was a socialite! She even dared to yell at him and criticize Wan Hua's banquet security!
"Mr. Fang, it's a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding. My wife was just too anxious because she lost something." Wu Zhongcheng was a sensible person. Seeing that Mr. Fang's face darkened, he immediately tried to smooth things over.
Before President Fang could speak again, Xu Tingchuan had already walked through the crowd to Ni Sitian, straightened her loose scarf, smoothed her messy hair, and asked, "Why is your forehead swollen? Are you injured anywhere else?"
Ni Sitian stared blankly at him, sniffed, and held back her tears.
She was afraid of causing trouble for Xu Tingchuan in this setting, so she shook her head.
Xu Tingchuan raised his hand and gently touched her forehead, clearly feeling a large bump. He asked softly, "Does it hurt?"
Some of the people present recognized Xu Tingchuan, and seeing how gentle he was with this girl, they couldn't help but speculate about her identity.
Xiao Ya, standing next to Ni Sitian, was shocked. She thought Qin Mubei standing up for her was already impressive, but she didn't expect that Xu Tingchuan, the president of MK Group, would also care about Ni Sitian so much.
She had always been interested in this business tycoon, but because he was extremely low-key, refused any interviews from magazines or the news, and rarely appeared at banquets, he always had a mysterious aura that made people want to investigate him even more.
