Chu Yuan had mixed feelings about Gu Qingyan's shamelessness, while Ning Mochen was dismissive; both were rich in inner thoughts but outwardly indifferent.
On the contrary, Bai Weiwei reacted strongly, and the fruit machine she was holding fell to the ground with a thud!
Unfortunately, the screen hit the edge of the table. Wealthy people like them don't bother with screen protectors or cases, so both the front and back screens cracked to varying degrees.
This made Bai Weiwei's expression even more distorted.
She certainly didn't care about a cheap phone, but transferring data was such a hassle!
Bai Weiwei suppressed the urge to scream, stood up abruptly, her eyes instantly filled with tears, and said pitifully, "Cousin~ I... what did I do wrong that you treat me like this?"
When my cousin was alive, we were the closest of friends. But as soon as she left, you teamed up with outsiders to bully me!
"It's just a supporting role in a period drama. Our family invested 50 million yuan, and we've already been very kind by not asking for the lead role. Now you won't even let me play a supporting role!"
She started stomping her feet, "Cousin! You've gone too far! I'm going to tell Aunt Zhou!"
She cried and made a scene with practiced ease.
Tears welled up in her large eyes, and she turned to glare fiercely at Chu Yuan, "It's you, you country bumpkin, you seduced my cousin!"
You want to be your cousin's mistress and climb the social ladder through your body? Let me tell you, it's not that easy!
"Once Aunt Zhou finds out about you, I guarantee you'll be dead without a trace, because Aunt Zhou will never allow any woman to take my cousin away!"
Looking at her, Chu Yuan suddenly realized that Bai Weiwei wasn't actually as bad as she seemed.
At least her ability to cry on cue is quite suitable for playing a scheming woman!
"What, does your Aunt Zhou like President Ning? She's so possessive!" Chu Yuan retorted sarcastically.
Of course she knew who "Aunt Zhou" was, Zhou Manyun.
That woman who treated her like a baby-making machine!
But Bai Weiwei doesn't know her identity. Perhaps she doesn't even understand how she exists, yet she's acting so arrogantly here.
"You, you, you..." Bai Weiwei's face turned pale and then red as she was rebuked. She looked at Ning Mochen for help, "Cousin! Aren't you going to do anything about this? How dare she ruin Aunt Zhou's reputation!"
Ning Mochen glanced at Chu Yuan, but his words were directed at Bai Weiwei, "You should take care of yourself first."
Gu Qingyan added fuel to the fire at the opportune moment, "Weiwei, look, I didn't lie to you, did I? I never thought that even the dignified President Ning would have a moment when he couldn't resist the charms of a beautiful woman. But if Chairman Ning finds out about this, I'm afraid it won't be good for this young lady."
"Why don't you let go and give her to me? I promise I'll keep my mouth shut and never reveal a word!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than "plop!"—no one expected that Ning Mochen would resort to violence without a word!
A punch landed squarely on Gu Qingyan's cheek, the force so great that it left Gu Qingyan stunned.
Bai Weiwei, standing to the side, was truly stunned. She instinctively shrank back and hid.
Chu Yuan, on the contrary, remained calm and watched with a nonchalant smile playing on her lips.
She probably didn't realize that when she laughed like that, she was actually the same kind of person as Ning Mochen.
Ning Mochen threw a punch, rotated his numb wrist, and didn't make another move. He simply took a step closer to Gu Qingyan and said, "Young Master Gu likes to joke, but unfortunately this joke isn't funny at all. Please remember this lesson, and there won't be a next time!"
Licking his bleeding lips, Gu Qingyan said with a roguish grin, "President Ning, a beautiful lady is sought after by a gentleman. She doesn't bear your Ning Mochen's label, so why can't I pursue her?"
But you, are you so sure that he definitely likes you?
You're rigid, old-fashioned, like a machine; all you have is a bit more money, which just so happens I have plenty too.
As he spoke, his provocative and ambiguous gaze fell fearlessly upon Chu Yuan.
Chu Yuan blinked, not quite understanding why Gu Qingyan had fallen in love with her at first sight.
After thinking about it, I realized that this was probably not a matter of liking, but rather a game of fighting over toys among peers?
And she was that toy.
Gu Qingyan successfully reignited Ning Mochen's pent-up anger, and unbuttoned two buttons on each of his suit jackets.
Just as the fight was about to break out, Chu Yuan pulled him away at the right moment, "President Ning, don't you have other engagements? Time is precious, there's no need to waste it here with an idiot."
"Stupid woman!" Gu Qingyan scolded, feeling that Chu Yuan was both out of touch with reality and blind to reason.
Why follow Ning Mochen?
Can an adopted son of the Ning family really make his own decisions?
"President Ning! President Ning!" Suddenly, someone ran down the corridor, shouting Ning Mochen's name. Chu Yuan had just pulled Ning Mochen out the door when the sharp-eyed person saw him and immediately ran forward. "Oh dear, President Ning, what are you still doing here? The investors in the private room are making a huge fuss, and I can't handle it anymore. You need to save the day!"
Ning Mochen glanced at Bai Weiwei and Gu Qingyan behind him, and finally looked at Chu Yuan.
A silent inquiry.
Chu Yuan knew what he meant and nodded: "Yes, President Ning, please go first. I will find a safe place to wait for you. Socializing is more important."
Ning Mochen's negotiation was indeed quite important, otherwise he wouldn't have handled it personally, especially in such a chaotic and messy setting.
He instructed Manager Liao, who came to see him, "Arrange another private room for this Miss Chu, and don't let a single mosquito fly in before I come out."
People, needless to say.
Upon hearing this, Manager Liao glanced at Chu Yuan several times, wondering what her relationship with Ning Mochen really was.
Having worked with Ning Zong for so long, I've never seen him take any woman seriously.
