“Nowadays, if you want to be a gold digger, you have to have some ability.”
Zhou Xiao laughed. Just as he was about to mock her a little more, Huo Chuan had already stood up with an obvious displeasure on his face.
“You talk too much today.”
After saying that, Huo Chuan took big strides and left, not giving Lin Yu and Zhou Xiao a single glance.
Lin Yu and Zhou Xiao stayed where they were and looked at each other.
“What’s wrong with him?” Zhou Xiao was puzzled. “He looks like he ate a firecracker.”
“I don’t know.” Lin Yu scratched his head.
..
The Chairman of the Greenland Group, Wang Fang, was extremely happy to have a son. He booked an entire floor of the banquet hall to hold a 100-day banquet for his younger son.
However, all the guests present knew that while this 100-day banquet was held for Wang Fang’s younger son on the surface, in reality, it was for the medical project of the Greenland Group.
Wang Fang had connections that no one could have fathomed, but through that, he had gained the approval of almost all the special medicine of that year.
If anyone could get a slice of that pie, it would be worth at least tens of millions, and at most hundreds of millions.
Countless pairs of eyes stared at Wang Fang, like hungry wolves staring at their prey.
Suddenly, there was a commotion at the entrance of the banquet hall. When the crowd looked over, they saw a man and a woman surrounded by a crowd, like stars surrounding the moon.
Yun Zhe, the President of the Yun Corporation, and Yun Qing, the ex-wife of Huo Chuan, the president of the Huo Corporation.
The black dress accentuated Yun Qing’s curvaceous figure. A silver gemstone necklace nestled around her neck made her collarbone even more distinct, and it also made her skin even fairer.
“Good boy, what was Huo Chuan thinking, leave her?” Someone felt sorry for Huo Chuan.
“Why don’t you ask Yun Zhe what he thinks? He doesn’t want a lot of beautiful women, but he just wants a second-hand one.” Someone felt displeasure at Yun Zhe.
At the same time, many people surrounded Yun Zhe and fawned over him.
Seeing more and more people, Yun Zhe smiled and raised his glass. “Everyone, the lady beside me is the new VP of the Yun Group, Yun Qing.”
“Please take care of her.”
“Take care of her” coming from Yun Zhe’s mouth was really rare!
Since when did the Yun group need someone to take care of them?
What was this woman’s background? How could she make Yun Zhe say such a thing?
Everyone was surprised, but they couldn’t show it in front of Yun Zhe.
Amidst the compliments, Yun Qing maintained a decent smile and responded to them one by one, being neither servile nor overbearing.
Not far away, Huo Qing gritted her teeth and stared at Yun Qing’s back. Her anger and resentment seemed to be materializing.
Huo Qing’s squad of girls also looked unhappy, blaming Yun Qing for stealing the limelight.
“If I’m not mistaken, Yun Qing is wearing the ‘Galaxy Fragment’ that Qing Qing borrowed from me once, right? Why is she wearing it?”
Huo Qing’s little sister, Xu Wan, said sarcastically.
Huo Qing narrowed her eyes, and her anger increased.
The ‘Galaxy Fragment’ was her favorite designer’s new style. It was the only one of its kind, and its whereabouts were unknown.
She asked Xu Wan to ask, and only then did she learn that the ‘Galaxy Fragment’ had long been bought by the mysterious buyer.
Although Huo Qing was reluctant, she also accepted this fact.
But why was it on Yun Qing?!
How could a country bumpkin dress better than her?!
As she recalled the scenes of Yun Qing working for the Huo family, Huo Qing felt that she had been outdone by a nanny.
If Yun Zhe was not still around, she really wanted to pour the red wine in her hand on Yun Qing’s face!
Her gaze fell on the crook of Yun Zhe’s arm that was holding Yun Qing. Huo Qing realized that Yun Zhe must have bought this dress for Yun Qing!
When she gazed at Yun Zhe’s sharp and handsome side profile, jealousy roared crazily in Huo Qing’s eyes.
“What’s the use of a gold digger who relies on a man to survive, no matter how good her clothes are?”
“Yun Zhe has taken a fancy to her for now, but could would he not get bored in this lifetime?”
“She’s just a pretty pillow. The higher Yun Zhe puts her up, the greater her fall will be in the future!”
Huo Qing did not hide her disgust for Yun Qing. She stomped her feet heavily and turned to leave.
Out of sight, out of mind!
In a hidden private room, Wang Fang was holding a cigar as he sized up the woman named Yun Qing.
“President Wang, this is a small gift.”
Yun Qing smiled as she took out a small gift from her bag. It was for President Wang’s son.
It was a golden longevity lock, but to Wang Fang, it was more than a gift.
A cunning little girl.
Wang Fang took a deep puff of his cigar and dropped all pretenses. He said straightforwardly, “I’ve seen the proposal of the Yun family. It’s perfect.
“But I’m afraid I can’t agree to it.”
