Chapter 382

The voices of several women at the table next to them were getting louder and louder. Although they didn't mention anyone by name, you could tell right away that they were talking about today's two protagonists.

"You are all wrong. This one today is the fifth one. He seems to be a college student, a dozen years younger than Lao Zhou."

Another woman joined in, who knew more and swore that He Yufei was the fifth one.

"She does look quite young, but her complexion is too bad, like the White Bone Demon, she would fall down if the wind blew. Can she have a child with this body?"

He Yufei wore a high-end dress and exquisite makeup, and received guests with Zhou Haogang. Although her makeup was beautiful, it was still obvious that she looked very bad, and she was so thin that her breasts were almost gone.

"You think too much. Which of the four before you gave birth to a child? It's good enough if they can hold on for a year." The last woman to come rolled her eyes.

"That's right. Judging from her face, she won't be able to hold on for much longer. Boss Zhou is really tough. A woman with bad luck can't stand it."

The woman who spoke glanced at He Yufei with a look of disdain.

"Shh, keep your voice down. Don't let anyone hear us. Mr. Liu and Mr. Zhou are busy with business." The other woman looked around, worried that someone might have ears on the other side of the wall.

"What are you afraid of? It's no secret that Old Zhou is unlucky in marriage. He himself said that he wanted to find a strong woman, but unfortunately he couldn't find one."

"Old Zhou is a pretty good guy. He is generous to women, unlike some men who are stingy and can't even afford to buy clothes. Look, the one who used to wear cheap clothes worth dozens of dollars now wears high-end clothes."

"Who cares if it costs their life?"

Several women looked at He Yufei who was moving among the guests, covered their mouths and laughed, with a look of anticipation on their faces.

"That old man is unlucky in marriage? Does He Yufei know that?" Tian Xinxin was shocked. Influenced by her parents, she believed this.

Tian Xinxin became more and more scared the more she thought about it, and whispered, "Is He Yufei cursed to become like this? They have known each other for half a year, right? Shit, does she only have half a year left?"

Those women said that the longest they could live was only one year. Even if He Yufei could live for a year, she would only have half a year to live. Tian Xinxin even felt that with He Yufei's physical condition, she might not even last half a year.

"She wouldn't care even if she knew. She said it was for money." Sheng Baojun said lightly.

"No matter how rich you are, you still have to have life to spend it. He Yufei shouldn't be that stupid, right?" Tian Xinxin didn't understand. She felt that life was more important than money, and as long as there was enough money to spend, it was enough.

"Everyone has different ideas. People die for money and birds die for food. It has been like this since ancient times." Sheng Baojun felt that Tian Xinxin was too naive. There were too many people who risked their lives for money.

Everyone has a lucky mentality, thinking that they are the chosen ones, that God will protect them and make them safe and lucky, so many people take risks.

Jiang Hanyan stood up, picked up a plate of melon seeds on the table, walked to the next table, and said with a smile: "We don't eat melon seeds, but you sisters seem to like them very much, so let's put this plate on your table."

"Thank you."

Seeing that Jiang Hanyan was young and beautiful, well-dressed, and most importantly, the red jade bracelet on her hand was obviously a good thing, the women were all very enthusiastic.

"We are old enough to be your mother, you have to call us auntie," a woman joked.

"My sister is really good at joking. When we stand together, people will say, 'Where are the sisters?' And they can't even tell who is the older sister and who is the younger sister."

Jiang Hanyan sat down and chatted with these women, making them smile so happily that the wrinkles at the corners of their eyes deepened.

"You are such a talkative girl, are you a female guest?"

"No, I'm not familiar with the man. The invitation was from a friend. He had something to do abroad, so he asked me to help attend. I happened to have nothing to do, so I came to see him." Jiang Hanyan said with a smile.

"Who is your friend?"

"Rong Jinbao."

Jiang Hanyan casually mentioned President Rong's name. Although Zhou Haogang was rich, he was still far inferior to President Rong, and the women at this table were even worse.

People of Mr. Rong's level rarely attend such occasions. Usually, his assistants come over. Jiang Hanyan can speak without anyone suspecting anything.

Sure enough, the expressions of several women changed, and their sitting postures also changed. Before, they sat very casually and a little condescendingly, because they thought that Jiang Hanyan was a young girl and not worthy of their fawning. But now it was different, they could not afford to offend Rong Jinbao's friends.

Several women leaned forward, looking flattering and speaking in low voices, asking about the relationship between Jiang Hanyan and President Rong and whether they were relatives.

"We're not relatives. I helped President Rong a little in the past. My children get along well with President Rong's children, and I often go over to play. Do you also know President Rong?" Jiang Hanyan asked deliberately.

"I've heard of your name for a long time, but I've never met you. President Rong rarely shows up."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"Is your family also in business?"

The women became more and more fearful. Since they could help President Rong, their family background must be extraordinary. They guessed that Jiang Hanyan should be the eldest daughter of a prominent family, and her parents were friends with President Rong.

"Well, in real estate."

Jiang Hanyan's statement was very general and not misleading. Lu Chen ran a real estate company. Although it was not large in scale, it had assets of more than 1 billion.

Several women were in awe. Those who were involved in real estate were all bigwigs and had to have good connections with both the black and white worlds. Although their husbands also ran companies, they dared not get involved in real estate and could not squeeze into that circle at all.

Jiang Hanyan quickly became friends with the women and they got along very well. They talked about everything from cosmetics to jewelry, bags and clothes, as well as office buildings and shops. The more they talked, the more intimate they became. She also learned the identities of the women. Their husbands all ran companies in Dongcheng. Although they were not big bosses, their net worth ranged from tens of millions to hundreds of millions.

"Xiao Jiang, what do you think of the east side of the city? I think it's too desolate over there."

"I feel desolate too. As the old saying goes, I'd rather have a bed in the west than a room in the east."

Several women were not optimistic about the still-developing east part of the city, thinking that it would not develop and that investing in shops would result in losses. However, the shops and office buildings in the west part of the city were too expensive, nearly twice as expensive as those in the east part of the city, and they felt unwilling to accept this.

"Since the government is developing the east part of the city, it will certainly develop it vigorously. It looks desolate now, but it will become prosperous when a commercial circle, school and hospital are built in the future. It's better to eat meat early. When the east part of the city becomes as prosperous as the west part of the city and the housing prices go up, we can only eat other people's leftovers." Jiang Hanyan said with a smile.

She paused and continued, "More and more people are coming to Shanghai to start businesses. The west side of the city is so small that it certainly can't accommodate so many people. Development in the east side of the city is inevitable. I am optimistic about the east side of the city."

"What Xiao Jiang said makes sense. I happen to have some spare money, so I'll go to the east of the city and buy an office building."

Other women also expressed their desire to buy. They did not work and invested their saved money in shops and office buildings. They would discuss this with each other from time to time.

Jiang Hanyan asked casually, "I just heard from the sisters that Mr. Zhou has lost several wives? Is that true?"
