Chapter 213: Tired From Playing

Translator: Atlas Studios    Editor: Atlas Studios

She had participated in a variety show some time ago and became popular on the Internet, but this did not mean that everyone knew Meng Chuyuan. Moreover, Lu Qingye had not officially brought her with him to events to show her face.

The cocktail party had yet to begin, and the guests had yet to arrive. Meng Chuyuan had only been there for half an hour when she met seven men. They took the initiative to approach her and left her their contact details before leaving.

Perhaps it was because this scene attracted the attention of others and she was sitting alone in the corner, so she attracted the attention of many people.

Not far away, a man was staring at Meng Chuyuan’s side profile. When he saw her smiling at the men who kept appearing beside her, he was a little curious and asked his good friend beside him, “Who’s that woman? Is she an internet celebrity?”

“I’ve never seen her before.”

The man swirled the wine glass in his hand. His eyes were filled with greed as he muttered, “What a peerless beauty.”

“Don’t tell me you like her?” The man beside him seemed to have read his mind. He looked up in Meng Chuyuan’s direction and saw that she was wearing a wedding ring. He forced a smile. “She’s wearing such a big ring. She might be a married woman.”

“Have you ever seen a married woman look like this? I saw it just now. Several men tried to hit on her, but this little beauty didn’t reject them.”

The last man who had gone over to look for her was staying a little longer. Meng Chuyuan looked indifferent. She ate the small cake in her hand casually and let the person beside her talk.

Meng Chuyuan finished the last bite of cheesecake. Just as she was about to find an excuse to leave, someone suddenly stepped forward to help her out and chased the man beside her away. “Sir, I’m sorry. This is my seat.”

The man sitting next to Meng Chuyuan could only leave dejectedly.

Hearing a voice behind her, Meng Chuyuan looked back and saw that the man who had helped her out was wearing a flirtatious floral suit. When he saw her turn around, he even winked at her.

Meng Chuyuan’s eyes suddenly turned cold, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly. However, out of courtesy, she forced a smile. “Thank you.”

“Shall we be friends?”

He was the man who had been observing Meng Chuyuan for a long time. He originally wanted to wait for the person just now to leave before coming over to talk to her. However, he realized that the other party had no intention of leaving at all, so he took the initiative to walk over and chase him away.

The man had one hand in his pocket and half a glass of red wine in the other. He took the initiative to approach Meng Chuyuan. Then, he took out a small card from his pocket and handed it to her. He said softly, “I’m different from them.”

Lu Qingye felt something poking at his chest. When he looked down, he realized that Meng Chuyuan had given him something.

She even patted it gently after stuffing it in.

“What’s this?” Lu Qingye was a little curious. He subconsciously raised his hand to take it out to take a look, but Meng Chuyuan deliberately blocked it with her hand and did not let him touch it.

Meng Chuyuan looked up again and met his eyes. She said softly, “I won’t go in with you.”

With that, she turned around and left.

Staring at her back as she left, Lu Qingye’s eyes dimmed and there was a trace of doubt in his eyes.

She did not say anything just now, but he seemed to be able to sense that Meng Chuyuan was not in a good mood.

Could it be because he did not bring her to the cocktail party tonight?

It was not until Meng Chuyuan’s figure completely disappeared from his sight that Lu Qingye came back to his senses. He reached out and took the things out of his pocket.

At first glance, he felt that it was quite normal. It was just a business card. However, when he flipped to the back, he saw a room card that was thicker than the business card. His eyes were cold.

“Why are you in a daze?” Perhaps because he saw him standing outside in a daze, Jiang Yi quickly walked out to call him. He lowered his eyes and accidentally saw Lu Qingye holding a pile of business cards. He asked curiously, “Where did you get so many business cards? You just returned to the country and someone wants to curry favor with you?”

Lu Qingye put the room card into his pocket and handed the remaining business card to Jiang Yi. “Remember these companies.”

“Why should I remember them?” Jiang Yi casually took them and looked at them one by one. He realized that they were all small companies and said with a smile, “You don’t really want to work with them, do you?”

These small companies were useless to the Lu Corporation and had no value.

Jiang Yi thought that he was in a daze because he was considering working with them. When he looked up, his eyes met Lu Qingye’s. Then, he heard him say coldly, “What do you think?”

Seeing Lu Qingye’s gloomy face, it was obvious that he was unhappy.

Therefore, cooperation was definitely impossible.

Jiang Yi raised his hand and made an “okay” gesture. Then, he put all the business cards into his pocket and said tactfully, “I understand.”
