Old Master Shangguan watched Jiang Ling’er and Li Yu leave. He sighed and said, “Shangguan Lin, I’m tired. Entertain the guests for me.”
“Don’t worry, Grandpa, I’ll handle things in your place,” said Shangguan Lin.
“CEO Chen, Young Master Gu, I’ll take my leave.” Old Master Shangguan looked at Chen Yizhou and Gu Yinian.
Chen Yizhou said with a smile, “Please help yourself, Old Master Shangguan,”
Gu Yinian also said, “Be careful on the road,”
Old Master Shangguan smiled and nodded. He greeted everyone and left under the escort of the security guards.
Shangguan Lin sent his grandfather off and returned to the banquet. He was very happy to see Chen Yizhou chatting and laughing with three other ladies.
“My three ladies, are there any seats left here?” Shangguan Lin asked.
“I’m the only one who still has a seat. Young Master Shangguan, come sit here.” Chen Yizhou patted the seat beside him.
“What were you talking about?” Shangguan Lin asked as he sat down with a smile. “You guys were laughing so happily that it piqued my curiosity.”
“CEO Chen told us about interesting things at work,” the Wang family’s daughter said with a smile.
Shangguan Lin asked, “Speaking of work, how’s business recently, CEO Chen?”
“I’m just getting by,” replied Chen Yizhou.
“CEO Chen, you don’t have to be so polite,” the Wu family’s daughter said with a smile. “If you say you’re just getting by, doesn’t that mean we’re all begging for food?”
“Well, that is indeed one of many ways to get by!” Chen Yizhou smiled.
“CE Chen,” Shangguan Lin said, “Let’s not talk about this. When can we get into a cooperation?”
“Why? Young Master Shangguan, do you also want to try out the jade industry?” Chen Yizhou asked with a smile.
“No, that’s too risky,” said Shangguan Lin.
“Oh?” Chen Yizhou asked in puzzlement. “Then what does Young Master Shangguan mean?”
Shangguan Lin continued, “Our company has signed a few good artists as well. They’ve all been endorsers for magazines and cosmetics. What do you think of this?” Shangguan Lin said.
“I’m sorry. The Chen family has already signed a contract with Jiang Ling’er.” Chen Yizhou replied.
The Wu family’s daughter, who used to be a model, looked a little jealous. She said enviously, “She’s really lucky. 1 heard that she wasn’t doing well in the past. I don’t know what happened to her recently, but she suddenly turned over a new leaf?”
“I’ve heard of her too,” said the Wang family’s daughter. “There’s a lot of dirt about her, but she only used one thing to slap everyone in the face.”
The Wu family’s daughter said disdainfully, “Hmph… Is it when she got first place in the exam?”
It was just first place. Maybe she got lucky.
“That’s right,” the Wang family’s daughter replied seriously. “Back then, everyone ridiculed Jiang Ling’er and said that she was brainless. In the end, they were all slapped in the face by her. Therefore, I think that most of those rumors were just malicious ones.”
The Wu Clan’s family continued unhappily, “It might not be all fake. After all, Jiang Ling’er was a mistress one time when she shamelessly pursued Li Yan. Everyone knows that.”
The Zhou family’s daughter, who had not spoken from the beginning, could not help but feel indignant for Jiang Ling’er. She spoke up, “Miss Wu, please watch your words, lest you get slapped in the face,”
Hearing the woman’s words, the Wu family’s daughter was unhappy, but she did not show it. She said innocently, “Did I say anything wrong? The entire internet called Jiang Ling’er a mistress, right?”
The Zhou family’s daughter knew that the Wu family’s daughter was acting dumb and was very dissatisfied. However, in order not to let Chen Yizhou and Shangguan Lin misunderstand, she did not want to let the woman continue acting clueless.
“The Jiang family and the Li family were engaged to begin with,” She said seriously, “It was Li Yan who cheated on Jiang Ling’er, and Bai Xue was the mistress. Moreover, AAiss Jiang also made up jokes in order to restore the two families’ relationship. A few months ago, the engagement was canceled. Moreover, Li Yan personally admitted to cheating in front of the media. Don’t tell me you didn’t know?”
The Wu Clan’s daughter was a little guilty, but she still pretended not to know. “Such a thing happened? If you didn’t tell me, I wouldn’t have known. Fortunately, I didn’t go out and spread the news. Otherwise, I might have been beaten up.”
Shangguan Lin laughed mockingly. This Wu family’s daughter was quite good at acting.
“I heard from Miss Jiang that she’s still a freshman,” Shangguan Lin said. “Do you know which school she’s from and what her major is?”
“It’s the Drama Academy, in the Performance Arts Department,” Chen Yizhou replied.
Shangguan Lin said in surprise, “She’s good-looking and has a good temperament. CEO Chen has good taste. Besides, up until now, she is the first person who could make my old man reflect on his stubbornness.”
“Perhaps the simplest method is the best and most effective way to deal with someone as smart as Old Master Shangguan,” Chen Yizhou said with a smile..
