Chapter 190: Tired of Playing
She participated in a variety show some time ago and became popular on the Internet, but this does not mean that everyone knows Meng Chuyuan, not to mention that Lu Qingye has not officially brought her to public appearances yet.
The cocktail party had not started yet and the guests had not all arrived, but Meng Chuyuan had only been there for half an hour when she met seven men. They took the initiative to approach her and left her their contact information when they left.
Perhaps it was just this scene that attracted the attention of others, and she was seen sitting alone in the corner, so she attracted a lot of attention.
A man not far away was staring at Meng Chuyuan's profile. He caught a glimpse of her smiling face greeting the men who kept appearing around her. He became curious and asked his friend next to him, "Who is that woman? Is she an internet celebrity?"
“No.”
The man gently shook the wine glass in his hand, his eyes filled with greed, and he muttered, "What a beautiful lady."
"You're not attracted to her, are you?" The man next to him seemed to understand his thoughts. He raised his eyes in the direction of Meng Chuyuan and saw that she was wearing a wedding ring. He forced a smile and said, "She's wearing such a big ring on her hand. Maybe she's a married woman."
"Have you ever seen a married woman look like this? I just saw it. Several men approached her, and this beautiful girl didn't refuse."
The man who came to see her last stayed longer. Meng Chuyuan seemed indifferent, eating the small cake in her hand nonchalantly and letting the people next to her chat.
Meng Chuyuan finished the last bite of cheesecake and was about to find an excuse to leave when someone suddenly came forward to help her and drove the man next to her away: "Sir, excuse me, this is my seat."
The man who was originally sitting next to Meng Chuyuan could only leave in shame.
Hearing a voice behind her, Meng Chuyuan turned around and saw that the man who had just rescued her was wearing a sexy floral suit. When she turned around, he even gave her a wink.
Meng Chuyuan's eyes suddenly turned cold, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly, but out of politeness, she still forced a smile: "Thank you."
"Make friends?"
He was the man who had been observing Meng Chuyuan for a long time. He had wanted to wait for the person to leave before coming over to talk to him, but he found that the person had no intention of leaving at all, so he took the initiative to come over and drive him away.
The man put one hand in his pocket and held a half-full glass of red wine in the other. He took the initiative to move towards Meng Chuyuan, then took his hand out of his pocket and handed it to her with a small card, saying softly: "I'm different from them."
Meng Chuyuan's gaze swept across his face, then slowly fell on the business card in his hand.
She hesitated for a moment before reaching out to take it, and found that the man gave her not only a business card, but also a room card underneath.
After seeing the room card clearly, Meng Chuyuan raised his eyebrows calmly, looked at the man in front of him, and smiled awkwardly: "Is this what you mean by different?"
The man didn't say anything. He raised the cup in his hand slightly, smiled at her, and then left.
"..." Meng Chuyuan stared at the room card and business card in her hand for a while, without any emotion in her eyes. She didn't have the habit of littering, so she picked up the stack of business cards on the table and took them away together.
Meng Chuyuan stood up and walked towards the entrance of the hall. He was about to find a trash can to dispose of the things in his hands, but as soon as he walked outside, he ran into Lu Qingye who had just arrived.
"Why are you here?" Lu Qingye was quite surprised to see Meng Chuyuan appear at the party.
Meng Chuyuan: "If you had told me you would come earlier, I wouldn't have shown up."
The two did not communicate privately about the cocktail party, and Meng Chuyuan thought he had other things to deal with, so he did not mention the invitation.
Lu Qingye had just rushed over from the company after work, accompanied by a burly man wearing gold-rimmed glasses, who looked quite gentle and elegant. He was the vice president of Lu Group, Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi called Meng Chuyuan "sister-in-law" when he saw her, then turned to Lu Qingye and said, "I'll go in first."
Lu Qingye put his hands in his trouser pockets, took the initiative to walk in front of her, and asked her curiously: "Where are you going?"
He didn't ask about the invitation letter. After all, he didn't take it seriously. He was still wearing the same suit he wore to work this morning. He just wanted to stop by to say hello and leave.
But I didn’t expect that Meng Chuyuan would receive their invitation letter.
She raised her eyes to look at Lu Qingye and said softly, "I'm tired from playing. I want to go back and rest."
"I'll go back with you."
Meng Chuyuan took a step forward in her high heels, and her height was just enough to reach Lu Qingye's chin.
"No, now that you're here, there's no reason for you to just turn around and leave." She looked at Lu Qingye with a smile in her eyes, raised her hand and stuffed the stack of business cards into his chest pocket.
Lu Qingye felt something poking his chest. When he lowered his eyes to look, he found that Meng Chuyuan had given him something.
After she stuffed it in, she patted it gently with her hand.
"What is this?" Lu Qingye was a little curious and subconsciously raised his hand to take it out and have a look, but Meng Chuyuan deliberately blocked it with her hand and prevented him from touching it.
Meng Chuyuan raised her eyes again, looked him in the eye, and said softly, "I won't go in with you."
After saying that, she turned and left.
Staring at her leaving back, Lu Qingye's eyes dimmed a little, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
She didn't say anything just now, but he seemed to be able to feel that Meng Chuyuan didn't seem to be in a very good mood.
Is it because I didn’t bring her to the cocktail party tonight?
It was not until Meng Chuyuan's figure completely disappeared from his sight that Lu Qingye came to his senses and reached out to take the things out of his pocket.
When he first saw it, he thought it was quite normal, just a business card. But when he turned to the back, he saw a room card that was thicker than the business card, and his eyes were cold.
"What are you daydreaming about?" Perhaps seeing him standing outside in a daze, Jiang Yi quickly came out to call him. He lowered his eyes and accidentally saw Lu Qingye holding a pile of business cards. He asked curiously, "Where did you get so many business cards? You just returned to China and people are already trying to curry favor with you?"
Lu Qingye put the room card into his pocket and handed the remaining business cards to Jiang Yi: "Please write down these companies for me."
"Why are you remembering this?" Jiang Yi took it casually, looked at them one by one, and found that they were all small companies. He smiled and said, "You don't really want to cooperate with them, do you?"
These small companies are of no use to Lu and have no value.
Jiang Yi thought he was lost in thought, thinking about collaborating with someone else. When he looked up, he happened to meet Lu Qingye's gaze, and then heard him say coldly: "What do you think?"
Seeing Lu Qingye's gloomy face, it was obvious that his unhappiness was written all over his face.
Therefore, cooperation is definitely impossible.
Jiang Yi raised his hand and made an "OK" gesture, then put all the business cards into his pocket and said tactfully, "Got it."
