Looking again at the woman in front of him, she was truly pleasing to the eye. She wore an evening gown, the design of which hugged her body in a fishtail shape, revealing every curve. If she hadn’t been an artist from ’Zong Xiao,’ Niu Zhong wouldn’t have let such a beauty slip by.
But the ntion of the words ’Zong Xiao’ made him uncomfortable all over, even causing a subtle pain.
Did this woman dress like this to imply his life was too long?
"Sorry, I don’t know you," Niu Zhong snorted, not quietly, drawing the attention of those nearby.
An Sijia had so knowledge of this Niu Zhong. It was said that he was in real estate, wealthy, and extrely lecherous. She deliberately sought him out, thinking he’d be an easy target, but unexpectedly, she was publicly humiliated.
She clearly saw the amazent and greed in his eyes, yet he coldly rejected her.
And the way people were looking at her...
She knew exactly what they were thinking. They probably thought she snuck in and was trying to seduce Niu Zhong.
Just as An Sijia was about to explain to Niu Zhong that she was the daughter of Ansheng’s company, she saw a bright light flash in his beady eyes, his face transford into a smile as he focused on the entrance, grinning widely as he walked over.
At the sa ti, the guests moved along, even President Lu went to greet them.
An Sijia looked from afar and caught sight of a girl in a black evening gown.
It was An Ran. Why was she at such an event? What right did she have to be here? Could it be with that man?
An Sijia scanned around An Ran but didn’t see that tall figure. Instead, Xiao Xiao was by An Ran’s side.
"Jiajia, what were you doing just now?" At that mont, Sun Xuehui walked over, her tone tinged with displeasure.
She saw it all clearly earlier. Her daughter had actually tried to flirt with an old man and got humiliated.
She didn’t understand when her daughter had beco like this. Where was the deanor of a debutante?
In her mind, her daughter was the most precious girl in all of Pingxi, with others fawning over her, not the other way around with a greasy old man.
If it hadn’t been at such an event, she would have pulled her daughter back earlier and slapped that ungrateful old man twice.
"Didn’t you see what I was doing?" Having been embarrassed by Niu Zhong, An Sijia directed all her displeasure at her mother.
"I’m asking because I did see. What about that man was worthy of you approaching first? If you’re going to curry favor, do it with soone like Lu Yi." At least, President Lu is better than that old man.
She didn’t say the last part out loud.
"He’s a real estate tycoon in Nan’an. If you don’t understand, don’t ddle in my business." An Sijia frowned, but her eyes remained fixed on the entrance.
She saw not only Niu Zhong but also President Lu being friendly toward the newly arrived An Ran and Xiao Xiao. Was it because of the man in front of them?
Upon hearing he was a real estate tycoon in Nan’an, Sun Xuehui’s eyes lit up. In recent years, the real estate industry had bood, and property prices in Pingxi had doubled. In a place like Nan’an, where land was gold, mastering the real estate business would an a lot of money.
All her previous grievances vanished instantly, and even thinking about that scene earlier, Sun Xuehui felt a bit worried.
"Jiajia, what happened just now? Did you say sothing inappropriate?" From a distance, she could see the man seed quite displeased. Did her daughter offend him?
