"Get lost, stop talking nonsense."
"I think you did it on purpose, using work as an excuse to take my Lin Bro out."
Chen Yutong shouted:
"You’re so cunning, I never thought you’d be like this. I trusted you so much, ugh."
"Stay out of it, I don’t have ti to deal with you."
Afraid that Chen Yutong might say sothing nasty, Chen Yuying hung up the phone.
"Let’s go back to the hotel, the banquet’s held there."
"Alright."
The two drove back to the hotel, where Chen Yuying took out her pre-prepared evening gown.
The black waist-cinching design showcased her figure nicely.
Though only a C-cup, it looked quite ample.
Plus, the back was also prominent, well-shaped, like a ripe peach, very perky.
"Help with the zipper at the back," Chen Yuying said in front of the mirror.
"No problem, I’m good at this."
Chen Yuying laughed.
"You’re probably best at unzipping, right?"
"Don’t say that, I’m a decent person too."
Standing behind Chen Yuying, Lin Yi skillfully zipped her up, the evening gown fitting nicely overall.
The banquet started at six in the evening, but they arrived around five.
After all, they weren’t there for the food; it was more about socializing, making acquaintances, and expanding business.
Arriving at the banquet hall, quite a few people had already arrived.
Groups ford casually, chatting and laughing about business matters.
But Lin Yi noticed an interesting thing.
Most attendees were young, anyone in their forties seed senior.
The relaxed atmosphere at the banquet lacked familiar faces.
"Seems a bit different from what I imagined, no big-ti business moguls."
"With the rise of e-comrce, this has beco a haven for entrepreneurs, so it’s mostly young people," Chen Yuying said:
"If big-ti moguls were here, I’d be overlooked, and they wouldn’t bother talking to ."
"You’re right, but the downside is you can’t land big deals with these young entrepreneurs."
"There’s always tomorrow; so big shots will co. You’ll et all sorts of people, and whether you close a deal depends on your skills."
Lin Yi nodded, said nothing more, and looked around again.
He had no interest in business matters, just wanted to find sothing to eat and fill his stomach.
"What are you looking at?"
"A bit hungry, looking for sothing tasty."
"Food here usually won’t be too good; if you want sothing better, I’ll take you out after the banquet."
"I need to fill up a bit first. You go ahead and don’t worry about ."
Chen Yuying understood Lin Yi’s temperant, not forcing him to stay with her.
"Let’s split up."
"Alright."
Lin Yi went to a corner of the venue where snacks were laid out; though their taste was diocre, they were enough to stave off hunger.
"Hi, can I sit here?"
While Lin Yi was eating, a woman in a burgundy dress smiled and sat beside him.
She held a glass of wine, wore heavy makeup, had a distinct nose job.
"Sure, have a seat."
Lin Yi casually spoke while continuing to eat and kill ti on his phone.
"Sir, what do you do? May I get to know you? I’m Li Lin, here’s my card." Li Lin handed over her card.
"I’m a driver, ca with my boss, don’t have a card to give, sorry."
"Driver?"
Li Lin was visibly surprised, not expecting to et a driver at such a high-profile place, her expression changed subtly.
"Sorry, I have sothing else to attend to, I’ll take my leave."
While speaking, Li Lin tucked away her card.
Lin Yi chuckled, used to situations like this.
Everyone being quite busy, nobody would waste ti on a driver.
Just then, an unexpected voice sounded from behind Lin Yi.
"Lin Bro, is that you?"
Hearing the voice, Lin Yi turned around.
It was a young man in a suit; Lin Yi scrutinized him, realizing he wasn’t familiar.
But that didn’t stop Lin Yi from engaging in idle chat.
"Yes, it’s ."
"Did you co alone or with my sister?"
"Your sister?"
"Xiao Bing, rember? We drank together last ti you ca."
Recognizing the ntion, Lin Yi rembered the man.
Likely a friend of Xiao Bing, they’d had drinks together before, but Lin Yi hadn’t rembered.
"I ca with soone else, didn’t tell your sister."
"Can’t have that; I’ll call my sister, you’re here so we must host you properly."
Without giving Lin Yi a chance to decline, the young man walked aside to call Xiao Bing.
Soon, Lin Yi’s phone rang.
Unsure, it was Xiao Bing calling.
"Lin Bro, you’re in Yuhang?"
"There’s an e-comrce conference here, ca with others, don’t worry about , just focus on your stuff."
"No way, wait up, I’m with Luo Qi, we’re nearby."
"Alright, co over."
Lin Yi didn’t insist on stopping Xiao Bing, as they knew more about local matters, they could discuss related topics.
After waiting for about twenty minutes, he saw them casually dressed, coming in from outside.
Luo Qi looked normal.
Xiao Bing, on the other hand, covered herself fully, wearing a mask and sunglasses, almost unrecognizable to Lin Yi.
"Why are you all undercover?"
"If not covered, it’s easy to get recognized," Xiao Bing whispered:
"Lin Bro, why didn’t you call us."
"It was a personal matter, no need to call you," Lin Yi said:
"Aren’t you attending the conference?"
"Just formalities here, nothing for us to deal with."
"The Xiao family isn’t what it used to be; it’s the top family in Yuhang now, such a banquet doesn’t matter," Luo Qi teased.
"So you better work hard, been around for years and still nothing, I’m embarrassed for you."
"Co on, a bit of praise and you’re flying high."
"Alright, enough idle talk, let’s focus on the main topics," Luo Qi urged.
Lin Yi glanced at them, a bit surprised.
"You two here for official business?"
