At the same time, at the venue of the gala, Chen Liang and his current girlfriend were having a toast with other business tycoons and exchanging some pleasantries to get to know each other.
One of the bosses turned to look at Qiao Qiao, then to her boyfriend standing beside her. A trace of admiration flashed across his face and he greeted her. “Qiao Qiao, you have been hiding your personal life well. I had wanted to introduce my son to you. Now that you have a boyfriend, you make me feel a little sad.”
Chen Liang smiled when he heard that. He picked up a glass of wine and said, “Director Chen, I’m sorry. I’ll drink a glass of wine as punishment, but I have to keep Qiao Qiao close to me.”
Hearing that, Qiao Qiao immediately lowered her head shyly and whispered, “Annoying.”
Seeing the situation, Director Chen could not say anything more. He raised his wine glass and laughed. “Good, good. You two are really in love. I really can’t do anything bad like breaking up a couple. Fine, Qiao Qiao, Chen Liang, I will punish myself with a toast as well. To the both of you. I hope that when Chen Liang goes on stage later to give his speech, the Qiao family’s business presentation will win the Zhao family’s approval. I hope that your collaboration with the Zhao family tonight will end perfectly.”
Chen Liang and Qiao Qiao said at the same time, “Thank you, Director Chen.”
Bang!
The crisp clinking of wine glasses, the sound of men and women talking and laughing, and the joyous scene were all witnessed by Meng Xiaowan and Zhang Wen who had just entered the venue.
A hint of loneliness could not help but flash across Zhang Wen’s eyes. Indeed, no matter what, girls would always be the more passionate and unforgettable party.
As for men, as long as there was someone better, they would be able to forget everything.
And just like that, the deeper the love, the deeper the hatred.
Why?!
“If you’re just using me to pass your time, why did you make it feel so real? Why did you provoke me? Chen Liang, what is your heart made of…”
It would have been better if she did not see him. The moment she saw Cheng Liang, she could not control the tears in her eyes. The scenes of her and Chen Liang being together surfaced in her mind again and again. In an instant, everything that Meng Xiaowan said to her was thrown to the back of her mind.
At that moment, Meng Xiaowan understood what was going on when she saw Zhang Wen’s expression. She sighed in her heart. “This child, if she gets emotional, her heart might soften.”
Immediately after, Meng Xiaowan looked at the time on her phone.
In less than 20 minutes, when the gala began, Chen Liang would go on stage to give a speech.
Meng Xiaowan was able to find out all this information on the Internet. The invitation letter was obtained through Meng Xiaowan’s hacking. She only needed to change the name slightly on the invitation letter, and it contains the contents of this gala as well.
Zhang Wen’s hesitation and soft-heartedness would only slow down everything.
Therefore, she had to be ruthless to Zhang Wen!
Right after, Meng Xiaowan raised her cold eyes and looked at Zhang Wen coldly. She stood in front of her and said coldly, “Zhang Wen, I will only ask this one last time.”
Zhang Wen looked up with tears streaming down her face. When she saw Meng Xiaowan’s calm and angry expression, she immediately said, “I’m sorry, Xiaowan. My emotions have affected our matters.”
Meng Xiaowan didn’t intend to give her too much time to explain. She immediately said, “You’re wrong. This has always been your problem. As your friend, I’ll help you. But if you don’t want to, we’ll go back now. My time is also precious. If you’re hesitant, I won’t help you anymore.”
Upon hearing that, Zhang Wen felt a lingering fear in her heart. At the thought of what Meng Xiaowan had done for her, she was still acting coy. It didn’t seem appropriate at all.
Besides, she only had one motive. She wanted the jerk to regret it and beg her not to break up with him!
Immediately, she wiped her tears away and said, “I’m sorry, Xiaowan. I understand. I’ll take action immediately.”
Meng Xiaowan nodded and left Zhang Wen with her bag. She turned around and said, “We’ll meet in 10 minutes.”
Looking at Meng Xiaowan’s back view, Zhang Wen thought to herself, “Thank you, Xiaowan. I have to work harder.”
At that moment, a waiter with a wine glass passed by. Zhang Wen stood up and said, “Here, a glass of red wine for me please.”
When the waiter saw the person’s attire and manner of speaking, he immediately stopped in his tracks and bent forward. He extended the tray with the wine glass and placed it in front of Zhang Wen. “Miss, please enjoy.”
“Yes, thank you.” With that said, Zhang Wen picked up the glass of red wine and shook it. She stood beside the table like a rich lady as she slowly savored the red wine.
In an instant, a beautiful and noble lady was born.
This was what Meng Xiaowan had taught her.
An actor’s belief is that, whatever you think you are, you will be.
Of course, there were also some secrets to chatting with these men in the business world. As long as one keeps smiling, agree with them when you are unsure of what they are talking about, and utter a few professional phrases occasionally, they will toast with you.
The less she said, the more elegant and generous she appeared. When she didn’t know how to deal with the people, she would raise her glass. This was what Meng Xiaowan taught her..
