"New energy makes people feel like it’s a new industry, but in reality, it’s just keeping up with the tis—" Shi Wangyue was chatting with soone introduced by Ze Wu.
Ming Chao, with a heavy expression, approached Ning Youguang.
Zhao Sui, who couldn’t hide his expression of enjoying the show, followed him.
"Almost..." Ning Youguang, who was talking to Chairman Xia, got stuck.
She was careless!
She forgot that at such an event tonight, her brother might also be present.
...
Chairman Xia was quite pleased to see the talented young n Ming Chao and Zhao Sui, "Ming Chao, Young Master Zhao."
"Uncle Xia," Ming Chao greeted politely.
"Chairman Xia, what a coincidence, I heard from my father that..."
Zhao Sui very tactfully started a topic to lead Chairman Xia away.
"Brother," Ning Youguang looked at Ming Chao with a faint smile, feeling a bit flustered inside.
"What makes you interested in coming to this kind of event?" Ming Chao’s voice carried a slight depth.
"I ca with my boyfriend," Ning Youguang hadn’t planned to introduce Shi Wangyue to her family so soon.
But now that her brother encountered them as a couple in a public setting, she wasn’t going to hide it.
This was the basic respect a girlfriend should show her boyfriend.
"Boyfriend?" Ming Chao’s voice turned cold, his gaze fell on Shi Wangyue who was speaking with soone, "Since when?"
Ning Youguang felt her brother seed a bit displeased, spoke frankly, "Not long ago."
"An investor, hmm?" Ming Chao now regretted not probing further when she brushed it off with "a childhood friend," missing out on learning more personal information about this "MM Investnt Fund" Shi Wangyue.
But—
It’s not too late now.
Ming Chao gritted his teeth.
"Yes," Ning Youguang nodded.
"Sounds like an ambitious person." Ming Chao slightly frowned.
"He’s quite driven in his work," Ning Youguang chose to alter her brother’s impression of her boyfriend’s career.
However, Ming Chao’s mood was sowhat blocked by her obvious defense.
"Career-driven? Doesn’t that an all his ti and energy is spent on work?" Ming Chao picked flaws, "Not much ti with you now, and no way to take care of a family in the future."
"It’s alright, I’ve always been independent," Ning Youguang continued to asure her words, "He’s good at house chores and cooks very well."
"..." Ming Chao, who couldn’t cook, felt slightly criticized.
"Just tricks to charm young girls." He sneered.
...
At this mont, Shi Wangyue appeared beside the two of them.
"You You."
With just two simple words, he called her with an intimate and lingering tone, making Ming Chao feel even more blocked.
"You You?" Ming Chao’s eyes, full of examining intent, unabashedly looked at Shi Wangyue.
Shi Wangyue had already done his howork, recognizing the handso young man full of coldness towards him as his future brother-in-law when Ming Chao approached Ning Youguang.
The gaze landing on the other person was elegant and curious without being impolite, "You You, this is?"
Ning Youguang sighed softly, "My brother, Ming Chao."
"Brother, nice to et you for the first ti!"
Shi Wangyue warmly extended his hand to Ming Chao, his joyous expression containing a hint of nervousness.
This kind of deanor is seen on any guy eting his girlfriend’s family for the first ti.
Ming Chao had never t a girlfriend’s family, not understanding the disguise of the person before him.
Instead, he was flustered by the extrely unkind way he was addressed.
After a few seconds of deep breathing on the spot, he briefly shook hands with him, "Mr. Shi, nice to et you."
Shi Wangyue had personally delivered a speech in the earlier part of the banquet.
Ming Chao couldn’t pretend not to know who he was.
"Brother, you’re too formal, just call Xiaoshi or Wangyue." Shi Wangyue had a gentle smile on his face.
Despite having picturesque looks resembling spring flowers, Ming Chao found everything about him displeasing to the eye.
But now was not the ti to pick faults; Ming Chao, with a stern face, took out his phone, "Little... Shi, let’s add each other on WeChat."
He spoke each word slowly and deliberately.
Shi Wangyue acted as if he didn’t notice his unwelcoming expression at all.
He enthusiastically took out his phone from his suit pocket and actively scanned his WeChat QR code.
After adding each other as friends, he promptly sent Ming Chao a "hello" emoji.
Ming Chao glanced coldly at his WeChat, not wanting to reply.
Then he turned with a serious expression towards Ning Youguang, "Let’s go ho together later."
Tomorrow was the weekend.
This late at night, he couldn’t possibly let his sister go ho with another man under his nose.
Upon hearing Ming Chao’s words, Shi Wangyue felt a deep sense of disappointnt, but his warm expression didn’t change one bit.
However, during the later parts of the banquet, he no longer firmly refused guests offering him drinks like before.
...
Late at night, in front of the art gallery.
"Sister, I feel a bit uncomfortable." Shi Wangyue tried to steady himself, half-squinting his drunken eyes at Ning Youguang.
Ning Youguang glanced at Ming Chao, not far away, with a face full of displeasure, as well as Zhao Sui, who had an intrigued expression in his eyes, and on the other side, Ze Wu, who wore an expression similar to Zhao Sui’s, along with Jin the assistant standing nearby, looking at them with a tense expression, spoke softly, "Who told you to drink so much just now."
Even in the night breeze, her slightly reproachful words were spoken very gently.
"No choice, those people are important partners of our company."
Shi Wangyue tugged at his tie, casually opened two buttons on his shirt, slightly exposing his alluring collarbone, and slightly lowered his head, closing his eyes as his long eyelashes fluttered slightly.
"Couldn’t you have just hinted at it?" Ning Youguang helplessly helped him adjust his collar.
As she got closer to him, a faint scent of his cologne reached her nose, his pronounced Adam’s apple seductively bobbed.
She felt enveloped by a strong masculine pheromone.
"They’re all wily shrewd people; whether I’m sincere or not is apparent to everyone." Shi Wangyue said in a low voice.
He looked thoroughly aggrieved and pitiful.
Ning Youguang was indeed moved by his expression, feeling tender towards him as she leaned in to give him a gentle hug.
Shi Wangyue took the opportunity to bury his head in her shoulder.
As they parted, Ning Youguang gave specific instructions to Jin the assistant, "When you take him ho later, could you make him a cup of honey water, please? Thank you."
Jin the assistant already had a favorable impression of this future boss lady standing before him, and after tonight, his regard for her only skyrocketed, "Not at all, Miss Ning."
He firmly supported his drunken boss, "Don’t worry, I’ll take good care of Mr. Shi." 1314
