Song Yanran’s expression was indifferent as she slightly nodded in return, considering that a greeting.
Zhao Qianze introduced her with a smile, “This is Miss Song Yanran, my good friend, a top beauty plus a well-known manager.”
When Zhao Qianze introduced her, she even teased Song Yanran.
It seed their relationship was pretty close, mused Bai Xiaosheng silently.
He gave Song Yanran a smile and proactively extended his hand, introducing himself, “Hello, I’m Bai Xiaosheng.”
Song Yanran looked at the hand Bai Xiaosheng extended, her smile cold.
If a slight upward curve of her lips counted as a smile, that is.
She offered her hand, which was as white as jade, but only the tips of her fingers touched Bai Xiaosheng’s in a perfunctory shake, fleeting and half-hearted.
Bai Xiaosheng paused, didn’t say anything, and calmly withdrew his hand.
She didn’t want to have too much contact with him, but he really didn’t care.
After all, the won Bai Xiaosheng had seen were as plentiful as flowers, and he hadn’t missed any type.
This Miss Song Yanran could only be considered a bit above average; she definitely didn’t catch his eye.
Bai Xiaosheng turned to Zhao Qianze and laughed, “So our people have all gone to the special reception room.
I was wondering why I didn’t see many in this main hall.”
There might have been so, but Bai Xiaosheng wouldn’t rember what they looked like.
“Do you want to go there now?
I can take you,” Zhao Qianze said with a smile, offering to show Bai Xiaosheng the way.
The people sitting around had been listening intently since a while back.
Bai Xiaosheng was actually a friend of Zhao Qianze!
And he shook hands with Song Yanran!
The crowd gasped in shock, whispering to each other in mosquito voices, discussing fervently, and morizing Bai Xiaosheng’s face.
Zhang Yao, who was standing nearby, kept following Bai Xiaosheng with a gaze full of shock and amazent, as though he didn’t recognize him at all.
“No need, going there won’t be much fun.
I’ll just wander around this hall, waiting for the banquet to start,” Bai Xiaosheng said to Zhao Qianze with a smile, politely declining her offer.
“Shall I accompany you here then?” Zhao Qianze asked after thinking it over.
The surroundings suddenly went quiet.
Shocked gazes converged on the two of them.
Zhao Qianze said she would stay here with this guy?
Does Zheng Qinghong know about this?
The onlookers perked up their ears, afraid to miss a word, thinking the next developnt might be big news.
Zhang Yao’s eyes were bulging, and he swallowed nervously.
Song Yanran glanced at the people around her, her eyebrows slightly furrowed, and stealthily tugged at Zhao Qianze.
That gesture was her way of telling her not to do this.
But Zhao Qianze paid it no heed.
“No need.
You’re the main attraction, where you are, that’s where all eyes are.
I can’t handle that much exposure.
Besides, I also have a friend here,” Bai Xiaosheng replied with a laugh, declining Zhao Qianze’s kindness and casually gestured towards Zhang Yao.
Zhang Yao saw Zhao Qianze looking at him and imdiately switched his shocked expression for a smile.
“So it turns out you’re Bai’s friend; what an honor,” Zhao Qianze then offered Zhang Yao a smile and even extended her hand.
Zhang Yao looked a bit flattered as he shook her hand, “Hello, Miss Zhao, I’m Zhang Yao, the general manager of Wanfeng Business Managent.
It’s a pleasure to et you!”
After greeting Zhang Yao, Zhao Qianze gave Bai Xiaosheng a sweet smile.
“In that case, I’ll see you later, enjoy your chat!”
Bai Xiaosheng nodded with a smile.
It was only then that Zhao Qianze and Song Yanran left.
Zhang Yao watched the beauties leave, then leaned in closer to Bai Xiaosheng and lowered his voice, “I say, Bai, you actually know Zhao Qianze, and she even called you ‘Bai’ in public.
What’s your relationship with her?
And you shook hands with Song Yanran!
How was it, was her little hand soft…”
After asking a couple of questions and seeing no response, Zhang Yao turned his head to find Bai Xiaosheng had already walked away towards another exit of the lounge.
“Hey, wait for .” Zhang Yao quickly followed.
Indeed, it was clear that staying in this lounge was no longer an option.
The people around them continually cast furtive glances their way, making anyone uncomfortable.
Bai Xiaosheng planned to visit other lounges and also wanted to take this ti to thoroughly explore the Chen Mansion.
anwhile, upstairs.
Chen Changluo was reporting his recent achievents to two of his uncles.
Chen Jiutian and Chen Jiuzheng nodded frequently as they listened, their eyes brimming with approval.
“Good, Changluo, you’ve grown a lot in the past six months and have beco a qualified general manager,” Chen Jiutian praised.
“But you need to continue to work hard, stay humble, and avoid pride and rashness.
In the future, the Chen Family will be looking to your generation!”
“Yes, after a few more years of tempering, once the right opportunity cos, we could certainly consider promoting you further!” Chen Jiuzheng also said with a laugh.
Chen Changluo, being praised by the two most esteed uncles in the family, his face flushed with pride, promptly replied respectfully, “Yes, I will bear in mind the teachings of both uncles.
I will definitely achieve great results and live up to your expectations!
I will also strive to temper myself to rise to the challenges of higher positions!”
The uncle and nephews spoke with great joy.
Chen Changqing, however, slightly bowed his head, expressionless.
His deanor did not go unnoticed by Chen Jiutian.
Chen Jiutian coughed to clear his throat, then raised his voice, “Changqing, you don’t need to be discouraged.
There’s a reason for everything that happened, and you are not to bla.
Fortunately, we’re close to resolving it.
When the ti cos, we will help you take over the real power at Zhongjing dia!”
These words from Chen Jiutian failed to cheer up Chen Changqing.
“Hmm,” Changqing responded, glancing at his Uncle, Chen Jiuzheng.
Regarding the control of Zhongjing dia, ever since Bai Xiaosheng initiated the establishnt of the Supervisorial Oversight Council to check the powers of the deputy general manager and general manager, he had complained multiple tis to his uncle, unsure whether his uncle had discussed it with his elder uncle.
He was even more uncertain whether his elder uncle didn’t treat it seriously or had so other thoughts.
Regardless, Chen Changqing now felt that seizing the power seed increasingly impossible.
Not long ago, Bai Xiaosheng seed to be about to report the new system to the affairs departnt.
Once the affairs departnt officially passed the new system, even if Bai left, Changqing wouldn’t be able to take all the power.
Chen Changqing wasn’t very enthusiastic, sowhat absent-minded.
Seeing him like this, Chen Changluo sneered secretly.
“Brother Changqing, I heard you were defeated by soone nad Bai Xiaosheng.
I heard he’s here, is that true?” Chen Changluo snorted dismissively, “He’s just a general manager after all, what could he possibly do to defy us?”
“Elder Uncle, Uncle, you both might hesitate because you fear the repercussions and find it inconvenient to deal with him, but let do it.
I will make sure he submits completely!” Chen Changluo said with absolute confidence.
Over the years, Chen Changluo had been arrogantly unbridled outside, believing that he could do as he pleased in East China, in Anjiang, and within the Group.
Chen Changluo’s words were uttered casually, but as soon as he finished, he suddenly felt the atmosphere turn tense.
Not only did Chen Changqing’s expression turn strange, but even the two uncles frowned at him.
“Changluo, you should stay away from that Bai Xiaosheng!”
Chen Jiutian advised Chen Changluo earnestly, “It’s not that he has any frightening background; it’s that this guy is extraordinarily cunning and incredibly insidious!”
“If you ss with him, I’m afraid you’ll be at a disadvantage!”
