Chapter 178: Chapter 175: Big Misunderstanding

The doorbell rang, and Chu Biyao became much more reserved. Her antics with her sister and Ye Fan were family matters and mustn’t be disclosed to outsiders, otherwise, it would become a joke. That wouldn’t do at all.

"Brother-in-law, quickly sit back and finish your breakfast. Someone’s here, so if you don’t want to make a fool of yourself, cooperate with me a bit."

Chu Biyao grinned mischievously, a cunning smile appearing on her face. She was secretly glad that the outsider had arrived so timely, otherwise, if the truth were exposed, all her efforts would have been in vain.

"Fine, but you need to help me clear my name." Ye Fan emphasized particularly. In Mengyao’s eyes, this negative impression mustn’t linger; otherwise, it would be disastrous. Besides, even though he didn’t know who was ringing the doorbell, this matter couldn’t spread out.

If this misunderstanding kept escalating, wouldn’t he lose face entirely? How could that happen?

"No problem, just helping you clear your name, that’s no big deal." Chu Biyao understood the meaning behind Ye Fan’s words and agreed cunningly to help first, then deal with the remaining issues.

As for clearing his name, she wouldn’t really do it. When the time came, she’d use some wit and ensure the matter became undeniable.

She hadn’t thought of exactly how to do it yet.

"I’ll trust you this once, but if you go back on your word, I’ll make you regret it." Ye Fan threatened.

"No way." Chu Biyao snapped her fingers triumphantly.

"Sister, stop fooling around." Chu Mengyao admonished from the side.

"Yes, ma’am."

Chu Biyao opened the villa door, saw who it was, and immediately said with a big smile, "Oh, it’s the secretary, please come in."

"Big star, you’re acting a bit unusual. Why are you so warm towards me, smiling like a blooming flower?" Shen Yahut asked suspiciously.

"You’re a timely blessing for me, isn’t it natural to be nice to you?" Chu Biyao thought inwardly but said calmly, "What vision do you have? Wasn’t I quite fond of you when you came last time?"

"Stop it, you weren’t fond of me, more like giving me the cold shoulder." Shen Yahut secretly guarded herself, fearing Chu Biyao might be plotting against her, so she was very cautious, practically tiptoeing into the villa.

"Why are you being so careful? You’re not a little rabbit, and I’m not a big bad wolf." Chu Biyao laughed.

Shen Yahut replied seriously, "I think you look suspicious, worried you might be setting me up. Isn’t being a little cautious necessary?"

"You’re really cute. Am I really that bad?" Chu Biyao objected.

"More than just bad, you’re terminally bad with no cure." Shen Yahut was even more cautious.

"Thanks for the compliment, I’ll humbly accept it." Chu Biyao smiled malevolently.

After surviving her worried phase carefully, seeing that Chu Biyao hadn’t done anything, Shen Yahut finally dispelled her inner worries, approached the breakfast table, and reported, "President, here’s an invitation sent by the mayor’s messenger saying a distant relative of the mayor has returned from abroad and wants to develop in the country. They’re holding a banquet to let the relative meet various prominent figures."

"Oh, there’s such a thing?" Chu Mengyao was slightly surprised, "Tell me, who are they inviting to this banquet?"

"Mostly wealthy heiresses and heirs, primarily those in business." Shen Yahut explained, "The invitation specifies that both the president and the big star are to attend and can bring a male or female partner."

"That’s good, when does the banquet start?" Chu Mengyao was quite puzzled. Inviting her was understandable, but including her sister too was unusual, though she didn’t overthink it. As long as male partners were allowed, it was fine.

She glanced at Ye Fan with interest. In such an event, taking Ye Fan along would be interesting.

"Three o’clock in the afternoon," Shen Yahut replied.

"Prepare a gift as a meeting greeting, and deliver it when the time comes." Chu Mengyao instructed, "The land in Jinluo Bay is perfect for building a leisure villa, and since they’re putting the land up for sale, we need to compete for this bid. Even though the probability of winning is low, we have to give it our all and strive for it."

Chu Mengyao and Shen Yahut quickly resolved the work-related matters with just a few words.

"It’s a bit strange, why invite me? I’m not part of that circle. If I don’t go, it seems disrespectful to the mayor, evidently affecting my sister’s business. But if I go, such occasions are uncomfortable, it’s really a dilemma." Chu Biyao murmured in confusion.

"Don’t overthink. Since you returned home, you’ve been cooped up in the villa. I haven’t had the chance to accompany you for some relaxation. Let’s take this opportunity as a little outing." Chu Mengyao said.

"Alright, let’s go. It’s no big deal. It’s just a relative of the mayor, putting on such a show." Chu Biyao grumbled discontentedly.

She didn’t enjoy attending such social events, usually only participating when unavoidable.

This time, for making acquaintances, the face must be given, as it’s beneficial for her sister’s business, naturally she had to attend.

"We’ll go together as four, submit the list." Chu Mengyao instructed.

"Okay, I got it." Shen Yahut agreed.

Then, she headed to the bathroom, feeling the need to relieve herself, naturally needing to take care of it first.
