Chapter 189: The Princess of the Capital
An Yan was furious.
The elegance on her face could hardly be maintained.
My chest feels so stuffy that it might explode.
She glanced sideways at An Leyao a few times, trying to let this hot-tempered sister handle the situation. However, she was like a blind person, constantly avoiding her gaze, and finally even stood up and ran away: "Hey sister, I need to go to the bathroom."
An Leyao is gone.
Others at the table also stood up.
I don't want to get involved in muddy waters and I don't want to get into trouble.
After a while, the VIP seats on the north side were empty, leaving only a few people from the Han family and Shi Yin and Tao Mian on the west side.
Shi Yin raised her eyes and looked at Ms. Bai, whose face had turned pale and whose lips were dry. She had no sympathy at all, only a warning: "If I hear you talking nonsense in the circle again and throwing dirty water on Ah Zhan, I will not debate with you like I did tonight, but will directly tear your mouth apart."
"You all have concerns: your family's reputation, your personal image, and the future of your descendants. I'm different. I have no parents, no siblings, and no worries, so I'm bound to act impulsively. I'm also sick, so even if I accidentally stabbed you, I wouldn't be sentenced to death. At most, I'd be sent to a mental hospital."
"By the way, remember to hold a press conference when you have time to announce that A-Zhan has been transferred out of the Han family's household registration. I don't want to be called the Han family's daughter-in-law again when I attend a dinner party in the future. Having the slightest connection with you is like being stained with shit, which is hard to wash away and stinks to high heaven."
Ms. Bai almost fainted from anger.
Han Tai quickly picked the person up and strode out of the main hall.
An Yan glanced at the silent Han Zheng, expecting him to say something, but he turned and walked away like a completely irresponsible deserter. Suddenly, she was the only one left in the huge room.
Shi Yin and Tao Mian stood up one after another.
Prepare to leave.
After walking about three or five steps, An Yan called out to her from behind, "It's no use gaining the upper hand verbally. Tonight, the Shine Group deal you hold will be returned to Ah Zheng. Even if Han Er wins the lawsuit against all the media outlets that fabricated the rumors and clears himself of the filth, it's useless. He'll still be a mediocre, unemployed vagrant, and he'll never amount to anything."
"As for Ah Zheng you mentioned, he is indeed a vested interest and will continue to reap the benefits. Once Shine Group cooperates with Han's and the project is successfully listed, he will once again secure his position as president. Dad will then give him the position of head of the Han's. Instead of just talking big, why not work out a plan with Han Zhan to please Ah Zheng and me in the future? Maybe we can even get him a small position in the Han's."
As soon as these words came out.
Tao Mian, who was walking in front, knew that he would not be able to move for a while.
He dismissed the waiters around him.
The north side became empty.
Shi Yin turned her head and looked at the person who had spoken. Perhaps because she had slapped her before, An Yan felt a chill under her cold gaze and instinctively stepped back.
He took two or three steps back and then stood still.
This is half of the country.
Dinner venue.
Does Shi Yin dare to attack her without caring about her own image?
As they stared at each other, Shi Yin approached her again and said in a voice only the two of them could hear, "You and Han Zheng are a perfect match. You are the only one who can be the daughter-in-law of the Han family. Because you are just like the rest of the family, you are all cheap."
"Shi Yin, you—"
“Bang!”
The moment the slap landed, An Yan was stunned. Her hair was messed up, her lipstick was smeared on her face, and half of her body was tilted. The burning pain spread rapidly from the skin that was hit.
What is more intense than the pain is the humiliation!
Shi Yin hits her.
Beat her in this ballroom!
The dignified and elegant young lady naturally wouldn't fight back, let alone curse, even though she was already furious. Shi Yin looked at her and wiped her hands with a tissue: "Not only with my mouth, I also like to satisfy my desires with my hands. I said you're cheap, wasn't I wrong? If you had run off with Han Zheng earlier, wouldn't you have saved yourself this slap?"
An Yan covered half of her face.
His eyes were scarlet.
So red it could bleed.
Shi Yin wanted to ask a waiter to take her away, but when she raised her hand, she found that there was no one within five meters. She looked again and saw Tao Mian covering up for her, saying that the Han family sisters-in-law were discussing something and not allowing anyone to go near them.
Shi Yin glanced at her again, threw the soiled tissue on the table, and turned to walk towards Tao Mian. As he got closer, he was startled by her. After calming down, he glanced at An Yan, who was walking out the side door quickly with her head down and her face covered, and asked softly, "Did you win?"
"Um."
"As expected of the Vice President of our Shi Group."
"Thank you for the compliment."
"Go to the bathroom and wash your face. Mr. Elton will be coming in soon," Tao Mian said.
"Okay, then you can find a place to sit and rest. I'll come back to see you after I wash off the bad luck on my body."
Shi Yin left the main hall.
Watching the woman's frail figure disappear into the crowd, Tao Mian curled his hands and realized a small layer of cold sweat had formed on his palms. Luckily, he hadn't said too many bad things about Han Zhan in the past few days. Thinking back to the scene at the banquet where Shi Yin single-handedly confronted everyone, especially the one cursing at the Han family, he felt a little apprehensive.
She is really protective of her own people.
He would not tolerate outsiders saying a single word about Han Zhan.
…
Ten minutes later.
The door to the banquet hall opened.
An elderly man, leaning on a cane but looking incredibly energetic, walked in and, under the care of Assistant Yan, took a middle seat. With Mr. Elton's entrance, the hall immediately split into two groups.
One is the VIP area centered on Elton.
The second is a leisure area for young people to have fun.
Mr. Liang, who had recently escaped a chaotic battle, was about to head to the central area when he ran into Mr. Tang, who was also on his way. The two men met, and Mr. Liang spoke first, "Didn't you go to see Si En to discuss the Western Suburbs development project? You said you wanted him to sign tonight to finalize it?"
"Yeah, but I didn't find it."
"Sean hasn't come yet?"
"I don't know. Logically, Mr. Elton is already here, so he shouldn't be late." Mr. Tang said, glancing at the seats on the north side. "Didn't you meet Si En's wife? Why don't you take the opportunity to build some rapport with her and ask about Si En's position?"
"When did I meet Sean's wife?"
"It's on the north side. When I entered the banquet hall, I saw you talking to Sean's wife. I thought you had become more sophisticated after being posted to Australia for two years and knew how to get close to people!"
Mr. Liang was confused.
He knew everyone in the north seat.
Ms. Bai, Mrs. Sun, the two sisters of the An family, and the girl sitting next to Tao Mian, who had left him speechless and whom he met for the first time tonight.
etc.
Mr. Liang suddenly had a bad feeling: "The girl Tao Mian brought tonight, Shi Yin, the vice president of Shi Shi Group, could she be Si En's wife?"
