Chapter 188 Yin Yin protects his shortcomings
The main banquet hall was bustling with activity.
There were many guests.
Shi Yin followed Tao Mian around the banquet hall, meeting many corporate executives. Now, as they reached the VIP seats on the north side, they saw the Han family and the An sisters sitting on the sofa.
An Yan spoke first, calling her in the tone of a sister-in-law: "Xiaoyin, would you like to sit for a while?"
"Miss An knows the vice president of Shi Corporation?"
"This is my brother's wife, Mr. Sun."
As soon as these words came out.
Everyone at the table was stunned.
More than a dozen pairs of eyes instantly focused on Shi Yin. She was actually Han Er's wife? That prodigal son was actually married, and to the former, disfavored second daughter of the Shi family?
wrong.
Now the Shi family has fallen.
Some were sent to prison, some were hospitalized, and all the family property fell into the hands of Shi Yin. He was now one of the major shareholders of the Shi Group and a true vice president, a person who should not be underestimated.
Shi Yin's identity as the daughter-in-law of the Han family was revealed. For the sake of face, Ms. Bai put on a forced smile and smiled at her with the look of an elder caring about the younger one: "Xiao Yin, sit down with Mr. Tao, let's chat."
Tao Mian said nothing.
He just turned his head to look at Nizi beside him.
Seeing her sit down on the nearest sofa, he followed suit. The waiter brought two glasses of wine, but Tao Mian declined, saying she wasn't used to it and asked for juice instead.
"I haven't seen the second young master for a long time. Why didn't you come with us tonight?" someone asked.
"he--"
"Ah Zhan is out on some business. He'll be back when he's done." Shi Yin interrupted Ms. Bai, who was about to speak, and replied to the woman opposite: "Are you Mrs. Sun?"
"Mr. Shi knows me?"
"I heard from Ah Zhan earlier that among the wealthy wives in Beijing, Mrs. Sun has a heart of a bodhisattva. All the welfare homes in Beijing have your funds, and you have helped many children in the mountains, giving them the opportunity to go to school. Ah Zhan said that among the crowd, the most kind-hearted, beautiful and peaceful one must be Mrs. Sun."
"Second Young Master, you're exaggerating. I'm not that kind." Mrs. Sun smiled, her eyes narrowing. "If you ask me, the most handsome man in our upper-class circle is the Second Young Master. He's also exceptionally cheerful and positive. Anyone who spends time with him will be very happy."
"I heard that in the past few months, many media outlets have received lawyers' letters, saying that the second young master is suing them for spreading rumors. Those previous rumors were all false, including the rumors about him staying out all night and supporting young models."
Shi Yin nodded and said, "Yes, Madam Sun, we have already won the lawsuit. The court has ordered more than a dozen mainstream media outlets in Beijing to publish an apology and pay fines and compensation."
Hearing this.
Everyone had different expressions.
Those who knew Han Zhan from rumors were stunned and surprised. An Leyao leaned over, passed An Yan in the middle, and asked Han Zheng curiously, "Brother-in-law, is what Shi Yin said true? Are those previous reports fake and rumors?"
"I don't know."
"You are Han Zhan's biological brother, how come you don't know?"
Noticing that Ms. Bai looked unhappy, An Yan pulled An Leyao back to her seat in time, glared at her, and silently signaled her to shut up and not to interrupt when adults were talking.
An Leyao refused to accept.
Shi Yin is half a year younger than her and can speak, but she can’t?
Someone else at the table said, "There's definitely been less news about Second Young Master Han lately. The last time I saw him on the headlines was the city-wide proposal ceremony a few days ago. It was quite spectacular and romantic. That blue fireworks show must have cost a lot of money, right? Second Young Master isn't as successful as the eldest, so he should consider his parents and save some money instead of being too extravagant."
"Who are you?" Shi Yin asked.
"Mr. Shi entered the industry late and is young, so it's normal that he doesn't know Mr. Liang from the Warwick Group. You will become familiar with each other as you interact more often in the future." Mrs. Sun helped to smooth things over.
"Mr. Liang?" Shi Yin frowned, feigning confusion. She turned her head to discuss with Tao Mian, but her voice was loud, as if she was speaking to everyone. "Mr. Tao, is this Mr. Liang, the one whose poor decision-making two years ago plunged Hua Wei into crisis and nearly bankrupted him? He was removed as president by all shareholders and sent to Australia. He only recently returned to Beijing thanks to Mr. Tang's connections?"
"you!"
"Then I really don't know him." Shi Yin turned around and looked at Mr. Liang, whose face had darkened at the table opposite him. "I'm surrounded by partners who are upright and honest. I wouldn't dare to get to know someone like you. I wouldn't be able to sleep well at night if I signed a contract with you."
"Xiaoyin, don't talk to your elders like that." Ms. Bai called her, then turned to Mr. Liang and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Liang. Old Han and I didn't discipline Han Zhan well. His wife might have been influenced by him. She doesn't know manners and is sharp-tongued. Please don't take it to heart."
"When it comes to eloquence, who can compare to you?" Shi Yin looked at Ms. Bai and, without regard for the occasion, said bluntly, "Those entertainment media have dared to fabricate rumors about A-Zhan for years. Isn't it because you deliberately let it go? Not only do you not care, you constantly smear him in front of outsiders, making his image even worse."
"I've always been curious, is A Zhan your biological son? If he is, how could you bully him so cruelly? If he is not, then you are quite capable, to give the Han family such a big cuckold."
Everyone was shocked.
No one dared to say anything.
Even Mr. Liang, who had been indignant before, shut up.
"Shi Yin, don't push your luck!"
Han Tai scolded her harshly.
At the same time, he reached out and hugged Ms. Bai, protecting his wife in his arms.
What's a man's interference in women's verbal battles? Tao Mian was about to speak, but Shi Yin stopped him, saying before he could, "Who are you judging me by? A-Zhan's biological father? Apart from this blood relationship, do you have the slightest bit of a fatherly character? Birds build nests and hatch eggs, and they know how to take good care of their young. What about you? You're worse than an animal."
Everyone's pupils constricted.
I dare not breathe.
Han Zheng stepped forward and tried to mediate: "Xiaoyin, that's not what Mom and Dad meant. For my sake and the Shine Group dinner tonight, let's talk about it when we get home."
"Didn't you bring up this topic first? I just responded a few times, and you can't stand it?" Shi Yin looked at him and laughed, "Who do you think you are? How much is your face worth? As a vested interest, you have enjoyed the dividends for so many years. Don't drink A-Zhan's blood while pretending to be a good person. It's really disgusting."
"Xiaoyin, Ah Zheng is just trying to smooth things over. How can you say that?" An Yan spoke up, standing next to Han Zheng. "This is such a grand dinner with so many guests. Do we really have to make a fool of our Han family?"
"Weren't you the ones who told this joke first?" Shi Yin glanced at her. "You've only been married for a few days, and you already think you're a member of the Han family? When your bracelet was stolen, did Han Zheng say a word for you? Did he give you a surprise on your wedding day? He doesn't even take you seriously, yet you're the one who's trying to lick his boots. How cheap of you."
