Chapter 158: Chapter 157: Waiting

"Relying on your wealthy patron to act unbridled? Miss Jiang, your family background is so prestigious, but she is the complete antithesis, a terrible role model for modern women!"

Jiang Wei listened to the receptionist’s incessant insults and her lips twitched upward, almost imperceptibly.

During the photo shoot for the costume fitting, when she saw Qi Ming pull Wen Qiao away, she had Qianqian follow them and record the video.

She hadn’t expected that this video would come in handy at this very moment.

Actually, after the Luo Bin incident, Jiang Wei had intended to wait until the situation escalated to a certain point before releasing the video online to add fuel to the fire. But before she had a chance to release it, Wen Qiao had posted a clarifying video.

So the video remained on her phone. Although using it to provoke the Yunshui Pavilion receptionist was somewhat an overkill, it had, after all, helped her out this time.

Jiang Wei stopped the restless receptionist, "Please keep today’s events confidential. If Wen Qiao hears about it, she will definitely make things difficult for me again."

The receptionist patted her chest confidently in reassurance to Jiang Wei, "I know, I won’t tell anyone. Rest assured, Sister Weiwei."

"But, Sister Weiwei, why don’t you tell your family about her giving you a hard time? You are the treasured pearl of the Jiang Family, you shouldn’t let others bully you."

Hearing the words "treasured pearl," Jiang Wei’s expression stiffened momentarily; she lifted her hand and tucked the hair beside her cheek behind her ear, "What’s there to say? I’m not a child who runs home to tattle over everything, and I don’t want to use my family’s status to oppress others. One has to be down-to-earth and take things step by step; it’s more reassuring that way."

The receptionist nodded emphatically in agreement, "Sister Weiwei, you really think big picture."

Jiang Wei smiled, offering no reply.

After waiting all morning without catching a glimpse of Blanche, Jiang Wei grew impatient and texted Li Qing from her phone.

[Weiwei not Weiwei: Is your information reliable? I’ve been waiting all morning and haven’t seen a soul.]

[Li Qing: Absolutely reliable, just wait a little longer.]

Seeing Li Qing’s response, Jiang Wei didn’t have many options but to wait.

Cup after cup of coffee later, and finally, after lunchtime, Jiang Wei caught sight of Blanche.

Blanche was the fiancée selected by Gu Yi’s family, a sound business marriage.

According to what Li Qing’s classmate said, Blanche really liked Gu Yi, but Gu Yi did not share the same sentiment.

CAIN and ES were both luxury brands, but CAIN focused on the fashion industry. Being the treasured pearl of the C family, Blanche naturally had a haughty and domineering disposition. Once engaged to Gu Yi, she replaced all of his secretaries with men. Not to speak of women, she wouldn’t allow even a male creature near Gu Yi.

This wasn’t a secret within ES; all the employees knew it.

This time Gu Yi came to Hua Country to discuss a collaboration with FS, and she had come along. Gu Yi, however, found her annoying and often sent her away to entertain herself.

When Li Qing received this information, she and Jiang Wei discussed starting their plan with Blanche.

The two major brands uniting was a significant move, and since Gu Yi’s grandfather particularly liked Blanche, as a sign of sincerity, they transferred all their shares to her upon their engagement. In ES, Blanche held shares equal to Gu Yi, giving her absolute say in all company matters.

Jiang Wei wasn’t looking to establish a great relationship with Blanche in a short amount of time, but she could get her to veto Wen Qiao as the spokesperson.
