115: Basic operation!
Jiang Chuan was indeed worried that the two of them would aggressively find that Director Wang and question why he was engaging in malicious competition, pushing Cosmetics Brand to the brink of ruin!
But the other party looked completely clueless, scratching his head and asking doubtfully, "When did I target Cosmetics Brand?"
That scene would be incredibly awkward; it could even be submitted to Guinness for the most awkward record.
Su Wanqing was so angry her skirt seemed to ride up a few inches. This was the second person, besides her mother, to call her stupid. She retorted unconvinced, "How is that possible! Cosmetics Brand was developing quite well before offending Ning Xin!"
Jiang Chuan didn't believe one side of the story. To prevent the awkward scene from happening, he took out his phone right in front of her and started searching.
Su Wanqing curiously leaned over and saw that he was checking the development status of Cosmetics Brand. Her anger suppressed her reason. She stood up, intending to snatch the phone away.
"Jiang Chuan! You've gone too far! I'm still right here!"
How could Jiang Chuan let her snatch the phone? He curled up on the far left, protecting the phone in his arms, and looked at the information inside.
Su Wanqing had never felt such a great grievance since she was little. She absolutely could not let him insult her like this, and she used all her strength to try and turn him around.
But he was like a stone; after trying hard for a long time, he didn't move even slightly.
Uncle Li not only heard this but also saw it through the rearview mirror. He deeply admired his boss's ability to flirt; it only took a few minutes to go from having no topic of conversation to being entangled with each other.
This skill truly couldn't be learned. Otherwise, he would ask his son to apprentice under President Jiang, and his family life would surely be very happy—a house full of descendants wouldn't be a dream!
Jiang Chuan persisted for a while, feeling it was enough. He feigned exhaustion and gave the phone over smoothly.
Su Wanqing snatched the phone and immediately looked at the content inside. Realizing he was only checking Cosmetics Brand's situation this year, she knew she had been played. Only then did she notice their intimate posture.
As if scalded, she instantly retreated to her seat. Whether from anger or shyness, her little face was so red it looked like it could bleed.
Jiang Chuan retrieved a bottle of water from behind, twisted it open, and handed it to her, smiling, "Take a sip of water and rest. Why snatch my phone? You won't even let me look at a partner's information?"
Su Wanqing had no way to refute. In the end, it was she who was too sensitive and tried to snatch the phone without looking clearly.
But this bad man was definitely doing it on purpose. She snatched the water, took a small sip, and muttered quietly, "Little Scum!"
Enduring it only made her angrier; taking a step back only made her feel more aggrieved!
She extended her small hand and fiercely pinched his waist once. Seeing him yelp and jump up, she showed him a triumphant expression.
Little did she know that because of this tussle, the relationship between the two had unknowingly grown closer.
Jiang Chuan rubbed the soft flesh on his waist and took big gulps of water, having successfully executed his plan.
"Basic stuff, don't be surprised!"
The only witness present, Uncle Li, couldn't help but give his boss a thumbs-up. This move was simply too slick!
The fighter jet among scumbags!
The hotel hosting the banquet was far from Cosmetics Brand. Amidst their playful fighting, they finally arrived at their destination.
The Mercedes-Benz driven by Uncle Li looked somewhat out of place in front of the row of luxury cars at the entrance, but having been completely won over by his boss, he confidently parked the car right at the hotel's front door.
A middle-aged man who had just gotten out of a bentley in the parking lot and was walking toward the entrance was stunned.
"Who is this? So clueless?"
He wasn't in a hurry to go in anymore, waiting curiously for the people in the car to get out, wanting to know exactly who it was.
Everyone attending today was a CEO from Yangcheng's cosmetics industry, along with a small number from investment companies. There was almost no one he didn't recognize.
The car door slowly opened, and a man with outstanding looks stepped out. He seemed somewhat familiar, but the man couldn't recall where he had seen him before.
Not long after, a woman gracefully stepped out of the car, a very obvious blush on her face. As a man, he knew that expression too well—their relationship was clearly not simple.
He subconsciously moved a bit closer and finally saw the appearances of the two clearly, which was even more shocking than before.
"Nun Miejue! What man has this much courage? Isn't this the woman Director Wang likes?"
Even with her prominent background, he wasn't afraid of Director Wang, but that ruthless kick was widely known throughout Yangcheng.
Since then, no man dared to pursue her. No matter how charming she was, one's life and safety were more important!
Jiang Chuan had seen a man staring at him from a distance since he got out of the car. He looked familiar; it must be a CEO from some company. He walked over to the little silly girl and said, "There's a man over there staring at us constantly. Do you know him?"
"Yes, that man's surname is Li. He's sort of in the same industry, but our relationship is very casual!"
Su Wanqing nodded politely and led President Jiang through the revolving door into the hotel.
They handed the invitation to the receptionist, and both signed their names on the registration wall before entering the banquet hall.
CEO Li saw Nun Miejue bring the young man in and shook his head, chuckling, "So she's keeping a kept boy. There's going to be a good show tonight. I should inform Director Wang; maybe I can earn a favor."
He took out his phone, and even though he didn't see the person on the other end of the line, he still showed a fawning smile, saying something indistinct.
Su Wanqing knew that most people here wouldn't approach her for a chat, so she didn't seek trouble. She found a secluded spot, sat on a sofa, and waited for the banquet to end.
As long as Director Wang knew she attended the banquet, he would definitely look for her afterward, especially with a man by her side. She understood this former suitor very well.
Jiang Chuan was perfectly happy with this arrangement. He had only heard of the people present by reputation and might never have a chance to cooperate with them. He never made connections that served no purpose.
Beauties excepted... However, without realizing it, they had become the focus of everyone's attention. Few people in Yangcheng knew Jiang Chuan, but so many people knew Su Wanqing.
People passing by looked at the pair with astonished eyes. The news spread from one to ten, then from ten to a hundred, and more and more people looked over, whispering in discussion. The vast hall fell into a strange silence.
Jiang Chuan felt like a rare animal in a zoo, being watched and occasionally pointed at.
He slowly stood up, scanned his surroundings, and walked straight toward his target.
Everyone's gaze followed him, wanting to know what he was going to do, and they all started guessing.
"Where is he going?"
"I guess he found out about Nun Miejue's situation and ran away."
"I don't think Nun Miejue brought him. Being so young, it's highly likely he's a suitor who snuck in."
"Truly audacious, daring to touch the woman Director Wang desires?"
"At this age, he's barely graduated from college. Where has he seen a scene like this? I think he got scared off!"
