The True Heiress Is The Real Bigshot
Chapter 522 - 522 476 Liang Liang Xiu Yan 1 More

Chapter 522: 476 Liang Liang Xiu Yan [1 More] Chapter 522: 476 Liang Liang Xiu Yan [1 More] Ji Yundong was 22 this year, and because Ji Yiyuan’s contributions were quite good, he was directly promoted into the batch assigned to the labs.

Ji Yundong also knew that his abilities in scientific research were quite average, nothing special.

However, other members of the Ji Family of his generation, in order to join the labs under Ji Yiyuan, would all come to ingratiate themselves with him.

Ji Yundong was accustomed to accepting words of flattery and looks of envy from his peers.

However, Fu Yunshen, who was only one year older than him, had already become the president of a hundred-billion-dollar conglomerate.

The gap between people was really too great.

Ji Yundong felt a hint of hidden jealousy, and his heart was somewhat uncomfortable.

Just as he handed over his glass, it was pushed away.

The force was quite strong, making Ji Yundong stagger, his face showing faint anger, but he had to forcefully suppress it.

“Sorry,” Yun Shan said without even a smile, very coldly, “President Fu doesn’t drink.”

It was just short of writing “Don’t try to cozy up to us” on his face.

But this was the truth.

Fu Yunshen indeed didn’t drink, because he had to always remind himself of the Fu Family’s vengeance and couldn’t afford a moment of lack of clarity.

The surrounding guests had long noticed Fu Yunshen and had been watching.

Now that Ji Yundong’s invitation to drink had been rebuffed, and he had been mocked instead, he stood there awkwardly.

Feeling the glances from others constantly sweeping over, he didn’t know whether to advance or retreat.

Fu Yunshen, on the other hand, didn’t even glance at him, his peach blossom eyes narrowed, paying no attention to Ji Yundong as he headed straight toward the other side of the hall.

Yun Shan followed.

Only then did Ji Yundong lift his leaden legs, not even knowing how he managed to return to Ji Yiyuan’s side.

He gritted his teeth, unable to bear the suffocation, “Dad, look at him, having become a president of the Asia-Pacific Region, and he’s so dismissive of everyone.”

Ji Yiyuan also felt somewhat embarrassed.

With so many people watching, not even a cowering smile was extended, and they didn’t give them face?

But Ji Yiyuan’s temperament was more stable, “Anyway, he has already come to attend your engagement banquet, sooner or later we’ll be able to establish a relationship. Moreover, we don’t need to rely on him alone.”

“The O Continent headquarters is the main stronghold of Venus Group, we can simply contact the headquarters directly.”

Fu Yunshen was a recent choice and also from Hua Country.

The Venus Group’s Asia-Pacific branch hadn’t been established for long, so Fu Yunshen surely didn’t have much real power in his hands yet.

Moreover, in such a big group, internal strife was inevitable, so why not choose to side with the high-level executives who were opposed to Fu Yunshen?

Ji Yiyuan didn’t think further and continued to chat with Old Master Xiu.

On the other side of the hall.

“Seventh Young Master,” Nie Chao said as he saw Fu Yunshen coming over, finally able to express what was on his mind, “The Xiu Family really infuriates me. I came here because of Xiu Yu, but once I arrived, they told me it was Xiu Yan’s engagement banquet.”

The Nie Family and the Mu Family did not know what was in Old Master Xiu’s mind; thinking that they belong to the same top-tier wealthy families of the imperial capital, they didn’t bother to investigate like Yun Shan did.

Plus, Old Master Xiu really could keep it a secret, only Venus Group wasn’t fooled.

“Hmm,” Fu Yunshen lifted his eyelids slightly, “I know.”

“Then what are we waiting for?” Nie Chao grew angrier, “I, Grandpa Nie, will leave right now.”

“No need,” Fu Yunshen said indifferently, “Wait a moment.”

“Huh?” Nie Chao was a bit confused, “Wait for what?”

“To complete a task for my girl.”

“…”

Nie Chao was still puzzled, but since Fu Yunshen said so, he waited with him.

At five-thirty, the banquet officially began.

The several media outfits that had been invited had also arrived, they were responsible for today’s filming.

“Thank you all for coming to attend my granddaughter’s engagement banquet,” Old Master Xiu took the microphone from the master of ceremonies, still sitting in his wheelchair, and began speaking lightly, “Today, I would like to introduce my granddaughter, Xiu Yan, to everyone.”

“This child is quite a handful, having spent two years in the entertainment circle, but now she has returned.”

Xiu Yan, clad in a custom-made gown, walked up from the other side of the platform, smiling gracefully at the guests below.

Quite a few of the nobles invited from the imperial capital changed their expressions upon seeing this scene.

What they had been told was that it was a welcome banquet for Xiu Yu, not knowing there was also Xiu Yan’s engagement banquet.

Old Master Xiu introduced further, “This gentleman here is Young Master Ji, Ji Yundong.”

Ji Yundong’s name was not well-known, but the noble crowd from the imperial capital knew the “Ji” surname well.

The Xiu Family was in business, the Ji Family in scientific research, a strong alliance indeed.

In due time, the development of Xiu Family might even surpass that of the Nie Family and the Mu Family.
