Chapter 480: 0481 Where did this dog come from to disturb me! (Second update)

Entering the brilliantly lit chamber hall of the commerce event, an atmosphere of liveliness hit me in the face.

Ye Qiu didn’t look closely, he just glanced around and felt that the venue was very large, at least a thousand square meters. However, judging by the number of people arriving, it seemed that the spacious hall still appeared somewhat crowded.

Ye Qiu had previously accompanied Shen Mengchen to a dance event in ZS city. Upon entering, he knew that this commerce event wasn’t much different from the one he had attended before. The main difference was the background and economic strength of the attendees, which were on a different level. Ultimately, they were all the same in essence.

Business people are all astute by nature; the central topic of their discussions revolves around one thing, wealth!

If it wasn’t for wealth, no one would bother coming here, not even Fang Sijie beside him.

For Ye Qiu, having enough to spend was the principle, too much money had no significant meaning to him, so he didn’t bother to proactively mingle with the big bosses.

After telling Fang Sijie a word, he headed towards the tables on both sides filled with fruit plates and pastries.

He had spent the day going crazy with Niu Yinyin, and in the evening, after sending Yinyin back, Fang Sijie dragged him here to serve as a dance partner. Up to now, Ye Qiu hadn’t eaten a single meal, feeling extremely hungry.

Since it was not yet time for the dance, Fang Sijie didn’t mind and let him walk towards the food with sparkling eyes.

Meanwhile, a few acquaintances approached, including company presidents with designs on Fang Sijie.

"President Fang looks exceptionally beautiful tonight," said a middle-aged man with slightly gray hair, his gaze towards Fang Sijie revealing a hint of greed.

Fang Sijie nodded politely, not fond of the man at all. An old man of his age had tried to make moves on her several times, which she had clearly refused on multiple occasions. She didn’t expect the old fellow to be so persistent.

However, Fang Sijie also didn’t want to completely offend the man, considering the old guy had strong influence, controlling a publicly listed company and also holding the position of executive director in a foreign corporation. If she truly offended him, it would make the survival of Novtech Technology very difficult.

Forcing a smile, Fang Sijie was reluctant to say much more and moved towards the circle of another president.

Most of the company presidents from Zhongguan Science and Technology Park had arrived, and although Fang Sijie was a woman, she had a good network, including one or two fellow powerful businesswomen as her friends.

"Sijie, I’m so glad you could make it. I was beginning to think you wouldn’t show up today," said an older sister figure to Fang Sijie, speaking affectionately.

"Sister Hong has reminded me so many times, how could I not come? Otherwise, I would have disappointed her good intentions," Fang Sijie said, her relationship with this Sister Hong being quite close.

Another woman, about the same age as Fang Sijie but slightly less attractive, spoke up appropriately, "Sijie, I clearly saw you enter with a young, handsome guy earlier. Where is that handsome man now?"

The speaker, named Feng Zi, owned her own technology company, similar to Fang Sijie. Although their companies were competitors, because both were women, it wasn’t easy for them in the business world of Capital City. Consequently, their relationship was quite good, occasionally helping each other out.

When the two mentioned Ye Qiu, Fang Sijie’s gaze unconsciously dodged, and she said in a low voice, "He’s a brother of mine, you two better not overthink it."

"A brother? Really just a brother?" Feng Zi asked with a mischievous smile.

Sister Hong didn’t believe it either and teased, "Sijie, come clean with us. I’ve never heard about you having such a brother. What’s his real identity?"

Fang Sijie didn’t know Ye Qiu’s exact identity, only that he was friends with Shen Mengchen. At the moment, her explanation was hesitant and shambolic, and she struggled to concoct a cover story.

"Sijie, he wouldn’t happen to be a kept man, would he?" Sister Hong teased.

Fang Sijie’s cheeks flushed red, "Hongjie, it’s not what you think, he really is just like a younger brother to me."

Hongjie and Feng Zi had teased Fang Sijie upon hearing her words before finally speaking earnestly, "Sijie, you need to see clearly, be careful not to be deceived by men. You don’t know how many people are coveting the thing you developed."

Fang Sijie nodded seriously, knowing that both of them truly had her best interests at heart, but she didn’t believe that Ye Qiu was also after the thing in her possession.

Did that man care about money?

Fang Sijie shook her head inwardly, that man couldn’t even bother to show interest in attending such high-society events, wearing an indifferent expression all the time; to him, fame and fortune might not be of any significance at all.

On the contrary, she didn’t think Ye Qiu was scheming; instead, she found him to be spontaneous, natural, always with a calm and unruffled demeanor, a slight smile hanging on his face.

"The event has started, how come Mu Wanqing still hasn’t shown up?" Sitting on the couch, Jiang Hao couldn’t help but voice his impatience.

He knew that Song Jie had come here just to catch a glimpse of Mu Wanqing’s true face, while Luo Ming was just a silent type, seldom speaking up. Finally, out of boredom, Jiang Hao got up, ready to grab something to eat.

Song Jie opened his eyes from a closed-eye rest. He and Luo Ming sat in a corner, successfully avoiding Liu Wen’s gaze. Glancing at the main stage, without a sign of the so-called top star Mu Wanqing, he huffed in annoyance, feeling that he had come for nothing today.

French fries, fruit salad, Australian red wine, huge crabs...

All the delicacies before him were plentiful, and Ye Qiu couldn’t resist feasting to his heart’s content, quickly polishing off plate after plate of crabs.

This caused the waitstaff to glance repeatedly at Ye Qiu, having never seen anyone attend such an event and eat so disregardful of their status.

Ye Qiu didn’t care about others’ stares; on the contrary, he kept eating and drinking briskly, instructing the staff to bring a few more plates.

"Who is this bumpkin from the countryside, hasn’t he ever eaten anything nice before?"

The speechless waiter walked away with the tray, only to meet a sneer that arose behind Ye Qiu.

Ye Qiu paid no attention, continuing to eat by himself, a layer of grease still on the corner of his mouth.

Seeing that his words were treated as air, Jiang Hao couldn’t stand it and wondered what kind of lowlife he had encountered. He grabbed Ye Qiu’s shoulder in a swift motion, but immediately, his hand felt a pain like a needle prick, forcing him to quickly retract his hand. Even he himself was puzzled; was it an illusion? He looked at his palm; there were no signs of any injury.

Yet when his gaze returned to the figure ignoring him, Jiang Hao didn’t reach out again but instead walked right up to him, ridiculing loudly, "Really, acting like this is your own home, huh? Just look at the cheap street stall clothes you’re wearing. How could the doorman let a beggar like you in?"

Listening to Jiang Hao’s extremely harsh words, mean enough to humiliate someone to death, Ye Qiu gradually stopped indulging his appetite.

He spoke calmly, "Where did this dog come from, didn’t your master ever tell you that it’s impolite to disturb others while they are eating?"

Ye Qiu’s words left Jiang Hao thinking there was an issue with his hearing. Did he just call him a dog?

How arrogant!

Jiang Hao’s heart was already in turmoil from not having won Fang Sijie’s heart a few days ago, and now, hearing someone he looked down upon daring to insult him, Jiang Hao’s rage exploded!

"Kid, who are you calling? Do you want to die?" Jiang Hao roared angrily.
