Gu Xiyan listened to Lin Xiaoru's triumphant laughter, her face frosty, anger bubbling up from nowhere.
She wanted to say sothing, but Mu Jinyu raised his hand and waved it, stopping her from speaking, and then said calmly, "The press conference will of course proceed as scheduled, sorry to disappoint you."
Lin Xiaoru lifted the invitation in her hand and sneered, "If the press conference is proceeding as scheduled, why won't you let us attend? Although Lin Pharmaceutical isn't partnering with you, we wouldn't stop you from buying our products. You don't let us buy your products, that's one thing, but to be so petty as to not even let us attend the conference, isn't that too much?"
Chen Xuyang stared coldly at Mu Jinyu, rembering how he had been tricked by him that day.
However, given Mu Jinyu's status, it wasn't easy for him to start a fight directly.
Hearing their conversation, Chen Xuyang sneered, "Yeah, we've co all this way to support you, and this is hardly fair of you."
After speaking, he lifted a gift box in his hand and said, "I heard you and Xiyan are together now, I even picked out a gift specifically for you!"
As Chen Xuyang spoke, fearing that Mu Jinyu would reject their gift and throw it away, he himself started to unwrap the gift box, revealing a copper Shancai Tongzi statue inside...
Shancai Tongzi, in so contexts, carries positive connotations, attracting wealth and bringing children.
But Chen Xuyang harbored a grudge against them, obviously not implying that; rather, it represented "losing wealth"!
He was hoping their company would go bankrupt soon!
Seeing this, Mu Jinyu's lips curled into a radiant smile as he took the Shancai Tongzi statue from Chen Xuyang and said with a laugh, "I appreciate the kind gesture, brother. Xiyan and I will try to have a healthy baby boy soon."
Gu Xiyan was still furious, but upon hearing Mu Jinyu's words, a blush spread from her cheeks to her ears, and soon she couldn't take it anymore. She extended her little fist and gently punched Mu Jinyu.
Chen Xuyang, looking at Gu Xiyan's blushingly beautiful bashful appearance, was montarily stunned, then his look towards Mu Jinyu filled with even more frustration and resentnt!
Of course, he was mostly bewildered.
Could this guy really not understand human speech?
How could he actually think he was offering blessings?!
This reaction from Mu Jinyu made Chen Xuyang feel like he was punching cotton, stifled with frustration.
Chen Xuyang was about to clarify to Mu Jinyu that he didn't an it that way...
Suddenly, several cars arrived.
Then, these cars parked, the doors opened, and over ten people got out.
The newcors were Gu family mbers.
Upon seeing her relatives from the Gu family, Gu Xiyan's expression froze, and the blush on her face quickly faded away.
Turning sowhat pale.
She knew that the Gu family mbers definitely weren't there to support her. She had contacted them several tis in the past few days, asking them to let go of the "Jade Bee Dew," but each ti they refused, and their attitude beca more and more hostile.
Under such circumstances, how could they possibly co just to support her?!
They certainly were just like Chen Xuyang, there to see her embarrassnt.
Gu Xiyan truly didn't want to be the subject of their ridicule, especially since she had declared back then that she would make a success of herself starting from scratch, to make them regret their previous decisions!
But now, her new product launch, because of Lin Xiaoru, had turned into a huge failure, and naturally, she didn't want to face them like this!
Seeing Gu Xiyan's face grow pale, Mu Jinyu rembered what she had told him that day, so he grabbed her hand, gently patted it a few tis, and signaled to her not to worry, he was there for her.
The Gu family mbers got out of the car, glanced around the venue and the deserted parking lot, and except for Gu Xiyan's parents, everyone's corner of the mouth curved upward in a sneer.
Then, they saw Gu Xiyan and a few others and quickly walked over.
Gu Xiyan's aunt, Liu Xiaoyun, spoke with a laugh, "Xiyan, it seems like your launch event is lacking popularity, isn't it? Didn't I rember the ti wrong—it was supposed to start at noon sharp, wasn't it?"
The third aunt, Chen Jiaong, said in a mocking tone, "Do we even need to say it? It's just a small, insignificant company that hardly anyone cos to. Now, with the Lin Pharmaceutical's ban, even fewer people would show up to support her, apart from us family mbers—who else would co?"
"Mom is right."
Gu Shiqian walked over, looking at Gu Xiyan whose face had turned sowhat pale, and mockingly said, "Sister, why bother working so hard out here? Wouldn't it be better to just co ho early, accept Grandpa's arrangent, marry into a good family, and enjoy a comfortable life sooner?"
"Oh, Xuyang is here too!"
Gu Shiyu originally also planned to persuade Gu Xiyan to consider Chen Xuyang, but when she saw Chen Xuyang standing to the side and snuggling up with the imposing Lin Xiaoru, she imdiately swallowed her words!
Lin Xiaoru was initially furious that Gu Xiyan's family dared to defy her ban and co to support Gu Xiyan, feeling as if she had been slapped in the face; she was just about to turn around and deal with them!
But hearing their subsequent remarks, she realized sothing was amiss—it seed...
Gu Xiyan's family was here to ridicule Gu Xiyan as well!
"Haha..."
Lin Xiaoru couldn't help but burst into laughter, thinking about how much of a failure Gu Xiyan really was—ineffective in business, core product information being sold out, a career full of disappointnts; and her love life... certainly wasn't successful, given that Mu Jinyu was clearly incompetent!
Moreover, she's faced betrayal from all sides; what a disastrous ss this woman's life was!
Lin Xiaoru turned her head, looking at Chen Xuyang's handso profile, feeling like she was truly the winner in life, basking in success!
Gu Xiyan, listening to the Gu family mbers' sarcasm, was just about to speak.
Suddenly, quite a few more people arrived.
As soon as they got out of their cars,
Gu Xiyan realized that they too were all here to laugh at her and her companions.
She recognized most of these people; she guessed they had been closely following her and Mu Jinyu.
There was Zhang Qiuhuai, who had been disciplined by Mu Jinyu a few tis because of her.
There was also Wang Huanhuan from Huanyue Group, the woman who had competed with her for a cooperation with Trotsky, only to fail because of a boxer brief incident caused by Mu Jinyu.
She rembered Mu Jinyu saying that Wang Huanhuan had followed him, trying to find evidence that he was a fraudster, and had later co forward saying his check was fake, which led Xu Tianzheng to bankrupt her company.
She was definitely here to enjoy the schadenfreude as well!
And there was Li Shuyue at the Face of Jade Exclusive Store, who tried to impersonate a rich lady lusting after his suit money, and was exposed by her.
This fatty, after being exposed by her, canceled the cooperation with their family and even made a scene crying!
Today, needless to say, she was here to mock as well!
The last person, Gu Xiyan also rembered, was the gentle Second Aunt, Wen Yan's mother.
She rembered after Wen Yan faced possible prison ti, she had co to their house creating a scene and was disciplined by Mu Jinyu.
Needless to say, she too was here for the ridicule!
