Ch. 76..80: Mr CEO Ex-wife Escapes Again Chapter 76-80
Chapter 76 Wow, Daddy kissed Mommy “You listen to me, if you ever want to see my son again, then focus your energy on Sheng Xi, otherwise, I’ll do what I said!”
Sheng Siyuan, having composed himself, reverted to his cold and merciless demeanor.
In the darkness, he left these final words for the woman, opened the car door, and got in. Soon, the black Bentley sped away.
Yin Hehe: “…”
It wasn’t until the car was out of sight that she shook her still-cluttered mind.
And entered the villa.
She was really too confused to digest what had just happened.
“Xiaohan, where did you go? I was just about to go out and look for you.”
Just then, she saw her brother, Yin Beixiao, holding car keys and about to go out to find her.
Yin Hehe suddenly became panicked.
“No… I didn’t go anywhere, I just got back. I had stopped by the supermarket to pick up some things, sorry to have worried you.”
“So that’s what happened.”
Beixiao heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing that.
But it didn’t take long for him to notice that his sister seemed a bit off; her ears were unusually red.
“Have you been drinking?”
“Ah?” Yin Hehe was startled. “Drinking?”
“Yes, look at how red your ears are. Girls shouldn’t drink recklessly outside so late. If you want to drink, do it at home.”
Beixiao was a straight-shooting guy. Although he sensed something was amiss, he didn’t suspect anything further.
Yin Hehe felt even more embarrassed.
She quickly agreed, then started to go upstairs.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be going up. That little master of the Sheng Family is here again, I need to check on him.”
“…”
That statement made her brother’s face darken once more.
With a smack, he threw the keys onto the console table, his voice rising in anger: “Are the Sheng bastards never going to stop? Sending that child over to you every day, are they doing it on purpose?”
He was furious.
Not for any other reason, but because that child was born of a mistress, while Yin Hehe here was the legitimate wife back then.
What was this?
Coming to their Yin Family’s door to humiliate them, and him, Yin Beixiao?
“It’s not like that, Mr. Yin. Xi Bao didn’t come here because of his daddy, he came because he wanted to.”
“What?” Beixiao paused.
“He wanted to come?”
“Yes.”
Yin Hehe showed a look of both helplessness and deep sympathy.
“He is a child with autism, living in a world of loneliness. It was only when I took Cen Bao to Shengfei Bay that he started opening up to the world.”
“…”
“So, Mr. Yin, although I also don’t want to have anything more to do with the Sheng Family, I really can’t ignore this child.”
Yin Hehe looked guiltily at her brother, her tone became much more cautious with her last words.
Luckily, her brother was very understanding.
After listening to her, he stood in silence for a while, and at last, said nothing more.
“Alright then, you take care of him for a few days. Once Cen Bao comes back, don’t bother with him anymore—he has his own parents, after all.”
“Yes, I understand.”
Seeing her brother’s displeasure, Yin Hehe quickly agreed.
She knew that her brother was looking out for her; even though she was now a nanny, he still wanted to protect her because she was his sister.
Yin Hehe went upstairs.
And indeed, it was late; when she opened the door, the first thing she saw was a little figure huddled on the small sofa waiting for her.
“Xi Bao? You haven’t gone to sleep yet?”
“…”
With that one sentence, the little guy crawled out of the sofa.
He toddled toward her with small steps.
Seeing this, Yin Hehe quickly squatted down to catch him: “Sorry, Auntie was a bit busy with work today, and I couldn’t come back sooner.”
The little guy: “Mhm.”
He wasn’t angry.
However, after being held for a while, he wanted out.
Then, he scurried back to the bed, climbed up with his little arms and legs, and surprisingly, lay down to sleep obediently.
Yin Hehe was stunned.
“Are you going to sleep now? Do you want some milk? And aren’t you going to listen to Auntie tell a story?”
She hurried over to ask.
But the little guy shook his head on the bed and said coolly, “Sleep!”
Yin Hehe: “…”
She could only laugh and cry as she tucked him in.
A few minutes later, looking at the child who had fallen asleep and was breathing evenly, her heart suddenly felt congested again.
So, he had been staying awake just to wait for her to come back.
How could she leave him behind now?
When Cen Bao returns, she would ultimately have to take him with her, so what about this child? Would he have to return to his previous life?
Yin Hehe suddenly felt very uncomfortable…
Tossing and turning all night.
The next day.
She got up very early, remembering that today was the day of the state banquet at Baiqing Building, so she quickly woke the child.
“Xi Bao, Auntie is a bit busy today. Let’s get ready and hurry to kindergarten, okay?”
“No need.” Unexpectedly, the little guy refused.
“Daddy will come.”
With his small backpack on, he coolly dropped these words.
Yin Hehe’s hands immediately stiffened.
She thought of the previous night, and for an instant, even her heart in her chest seemed to skip a beat.
“Really? Well… okay then, Auntie will take you downstairs for breakfast, and after we eat, we can wait here for Daddy to pick you up, alright?”
She felt very uneasy now, wanting to run away as fast as possible to avoid the awkwardness of seeing that bastard later.
Fortunately, the little guy agreed.
So Yin Hehe, without even having breakfast, ran off as if flying, leaving everyone at Emperor Noble Manor exchanging puzzled looks.
“Why is Xiaohan running so fast today? Didn’t the young master say she doesn’t have to go to Baiqing Building so eagerly since her foot injury isn’t healed?”
“It’s probably because of the state banquet today. She also came back very late yesterday, almost at midnight.”
Suddenly, a servant spoke up.
Midnight, indeed very late. Working in Emperor Noble Manor, nobody stayed up that late.
The servants couldn’t help but admire her, but soon, another servant spoke out.
“That’s not right. I clearly saw her return at ten last night. At that time, Mr. Sheng was still outside waiting for her.”
“Ah?”
With just one sentence, the whole yard erupted into commotion.
Even the little guy sitting straight on a small stool waiting for Daddy turned his beautiful little dark eyes and looked over.
Daddy hadn’t left that late?
Hadn’t he picked him up from kindergarten and brought him here?
His cool and handsome little brow furrowed tightly, he lifted his little head and scanned around, noticing that there were quite a few security cameras installed in the garden.
“Tap tap tap tap…”
His small hands typed rapidly on his dedicated tablet.
Minutes later, far away in M country, Cen Bao received a big red exclamation mark.
Cen Bao: “??”
[Big brother, what happened? What’s wrong?]
[…]
After a long while, the tablet on the other side finally received a message from the little guy who couldn’t contain the massive wave of joy in his heart.
[Do you hope Daddy and Mommy get back together?]
[What?]
Facing M country, Cen Bao was instantly shocked into a meme.
Chapter 77 The long-awaited banquet has finally arrived “Are you joking? The woman he’s with now is your mom, why on earth would my mommy marry him again?”
“She was kicked out.”
Sheng Xi replied with a face devoid of any expression.
His indifference was as if he was talking about a stranger with no connection to himself.
Cen Bao was shocked once again.
Wow, the wicked woman was actually kicked out? Who did it? Trash dad? That’s really not easy.
He was very happy.
However, the idea of his mommy marrying Trash Dad again, that was impossible.
“Brother, don’t worry, my mommy won’t get remarried to him, you don’t have to worry about my mommy stealing your daddy. You should persuade your mom to go back to Trash Dad quickly.”
“…”
“Also, my mommy already has a boyfriend, they will be together in the future.”
This little brat, with his rapid-fire responses, outright rejected the idea of his mommy getting back with Trash Dad.
And he even mentioned that his mommy had a boyfriend!
Sheng Xi’s little face completely fell.
—
Baiqing Building.
Yin Hehe arrived exceptionally early today, and when she got to the building, there were hardly any people around.
“Assistant Xiaohan, you’re so early today.”
“Yeah, I came to check on things.”
She used inspecting as an excuse to enter the elevator with her cane and headed up towards the tower.
Indeed, she had to review things today as the banquet was set for the morning, and if anything was amiss, it would inevitably affect what followed.
Yin Hehe reached the top floor.
Only to find that upon arriving, it was like stepping into a palace, the fine ancient instruments and the splendid decorations all around made the tower radiate unprecedented luxury and elegance.
It was incredibly majestic!
“Assistant Xiaohan, you’re here so early? Just in time, can you help me check this guest list, see how we should arrange the seating?”
While looking, Jin Jinse also arrived, and seeing that Yin Hehe was already there, she couldn’t help but be overjoyed and brought over a list.
Yin Hehe took it.
For a city election event like this one, the seating was actually determined by their official ranks, those with higher positions sit at the premier seats, while the ones with lower ranks naturally at the end.
Yin Hehe glanced through the list of names.
“We have three premier seats in total. We can arrange for this high-ranking official from the Provincial City, then Mayor He, and as for the other one…”
She looked at the name within the top three on the list, which was marked only with “To be decided,” showing a trace of surprise.
“Who is this? To be decided?”
“Right, it’s still not confirmed whether this person will come or not. But being able to be ranked in this position, they must be a significant figure, so right now, I’m troubled over whether or not to arrange a premier seat for them.”
Jin Jinse showed a headache just talking about it.
Yin Hehe’s eyebrows knitted together.
“Let’s arrange it for now. If he comes and sees there’s no seat, and Mayor He gets angry, that’s something we can’t afford to offend.”
“Okay.”
Jin Jinse agreed immediately.
After descending from the tower, the staff had also almost all arrived, and many from the Yin family said they were there to help.
Yin Hehe naturally accepted all the help she could get.
“Great-aunt, you know about tea; how about you take care of the first pot of tea for the guests today?”
“No problem!”
The hearty great-aunt immediately agreed.
Then there was Yin family’s third uncle, a skilled calligrapher, whom Yin Hehe assigned to write out the ballot numbers for the banquet. And after Yin family’s Uncle Five, who had tasted all kinds of delicacies, sampled dishes in the kitchen…
In summary, Baiqing Building had mobilized almost all of its resources for this event.
Even the old master had specially requested a private room to keep an eye on every movement within the building.
Eleven o’clock in the morning.
Finally, the much-anticipated state banquet began on time, under the watchful eyes of everyone.
“Young Master, it’s bad, I saw media reporters following us inside.”
In the backyard of Baiqing Building, just as Yin Hehe and her brother Yin Beixiao were monitoring every scene, Jinse suddenly rushed in.
Upon hearing this, Yin Beixiao’s face changed.
“Did they bring them themselves?”
“Yes.”
Jinse nodded with a pale face.
Media reporters coming over certainly meant added pressure for today’s banquet. If everything went smoothly, Baiqing Building would naturally soar to new heights tomorrow.
But if they messed up and it was broadcasted live, it would be a death sentence for Baiqing Building.
This was the reason why Yin Hehe had instructed Jinse to check every corner before the banquet started, to prevent any leaking of the event that could bring a crisis to Baiqing Building.
But now, they had officially brought them in…
“Since they’ve already brought them, there’s nothing we can do. Instruct everyone to work with utmost diligence.”
In the end, that was all Yin Beixiao could order.
Jinse hurried off.
Yin Hehe remained silent until Jinse left, then she said, “Mr. Yin, we also need someone to monitor the internet.”
“What do you mean?”
“Baiqing Building has been very popular recently, and it must have upset quite a few people. You have to watch out for any incidents that could be amplified by others in the dark, intensifying Baiqing Building’s crisis.”
She spoke calmly.
Yin Beixiao’s pupils shook at that moment.
No wonder this girl had become a renowned figure abroad in just a few short years. Her mind really worked faster than others.
Yin Beixiao strode out as well.
Thus, in the office, only Yin Hehe remained in command.
Fortunately, from the start of the banquet to the arrival of significant figures and the live streaming of the election, everything proceeded very smoothly. And at this moment, Yin Hehe saw on her phone that various influencers and big V accounts were sharing the live stream, pushing it to the top of all major platforms!
This was quite impressive.
If things continued to go this well until the end of the evening, Baiqing Building’s popularity could explode overnight.
After watching all morning, Yin Hehe decided to go for a drink of water.
“Xiaohan, do you know who the person I mentioned this morning for the empty seat is?”
Jinse, who had been busy overseeing the event, suddenly ran in again.
Yin Hehe, who had just filled a cup of water, casually turned around as she heard the question.
“Who is it?”
“The president of Shengshi Group—Sheng Siyuan!!”
“Pfft!”
The water Yin Hehe had just sipped sprayed out in shock.
It was him? How could this scoundrel show up? Is Shengshi Group so idle to join this bustle?
“Then tell everyone to be patient. I heard Miss Yin say that this man has a bad temper and is very picky. If he becomes dissatisfied with Baiqing Building later, we’re going to suffer.”
Despite her inner turmoil, she could only offer a reminder.
“I know, and you should stay put too. Young Master mentioned that, because of Hehe, this man doesn’t like you either. You were even taken to the police station and almost deported because of him. Today, you’d better stay away,” Jinse said, suddenly bringing up the past.
Yin Hehe’s grip on her cup tightened slowly…
Chapter 78 Trouble Ahead Yin Hehe definitely wouldn’t go out.
Her legs were not convenient, and she also worried that drawing attention again would arouse the suspicion of the Yin Family.
So, she agreed very straightforwardly.
“Don’t worry, Auntie Jinse, I’ll just sit here watching the surveillance, and I can notify you immediately if anything happens,” she said.
“That’s good.”
Auntie Jinse breathed a sigh of relief.
Soon, she left, and Yin Hehe sat down in front of the computer.
But she saw that after the banquet shifted to the afternoon session, either because the election voting segment was approaching or because the big star Su Cen was coming, she noticed the official media’s live streaming traffic suddenly skyrocket.
On the webpage, she refreshed it and saw the whole page was discussing it.
[Even the President of Shengshi Group came. Could it be that he wants to get involved in the election and become an official?]
[What’s so strange about that? He’s already the top tycoon in Jiangbei, isn’t it normal for him to become an official?]
[…]
She scrolled through the comments and unexpectedly found that they all revolved around the President of Shengshi Group.
While drinking water, Yin Hehe saw this and froze for quite a while.
Is that bastard’s charm really that great?
She then looked at her phone’s platform, and this time it was even more exaggerated. Many videos that were shared from official media had millions of views, and when she opened the comments, it was all screams!
[Damn, I finally saw the living empire’s President!!]
[Me too, wuu~~ So young, so handsome, so does that mean all the domineering CEO novels are true?]
[Of course, they are. I declare, from now on, whether he’s married or not, I am Mrs. Sheng~~]
[Seems like he hasn’t announced his marriage. ]
[Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh…]
The whole comment section went wild.
So, the surge in traffic in the afternoon was really because of this bastard.
Yin Hehe stared at the trending search that had shot up instantly, then glanced again at the man who was edited to look like something out of a visual blockbuster, withdrew her gaze indifferently, and casually slid her finger to turn off the phone.
Actually, the guy’s appearance was really not bad, with his refined and handsome features, exuding a noble and extraordinary demeanor with every move.
No wonder he could enchant these women so much.
Yin Hehe got up, preparing to pour another glass of water to drink, but at that moment, the phone on the desk suddenly rang.
“Ring, ring, ring…”
“Hello?”
She picked it up absentmindedly.
“Xiaohan, can you call the hotel and ask when Su Cen will leave? We have to arrange some entertainment programs to ease the atmosphere here after the voting is over,” the voice said.
It turned out to be Auntie Jinse.
Yin Hehe immediately hung up and, after finding out which hotel Su Cen was staying in, dialed the number.
“Hello, has Miss Su from room 1808 departed yet?”
“Huh?”
The hotel receptionist was taken aback.
“It seems that the guest from room 1808 hasn’t arrived yet,” replied the receptionist.
To her utter surprise, the hotel came back with such an answer after checking.
The color drained from Yin Hehe’s face.
Not arrived?
Hadn’t Auntie Jinse confirmed last night that Su Cen had already arrived in Jiangbei?
How come she still hadn’t reached the hotel?
She became anxious, standing up from her chair and, leaning on her crutch, headed for the hall.
“Manager Zhang, stop whatever else you’re doing and quickly go to the hotel to see Su Cen hasn’t arrived,” she called to a restaurant manager.
In an instant, the busy manager’s expression changed drastically upon hearing this.
“What? Isn’t Miss Su supposed to go on stage?”
“No, she can’t be found right now. Hurry to the hotel and make sure to find Su Cen immediately!”
Yin Hehe said through gritted teeth.
The manager immediately went out.
A few minutes later, upon learning of the situation, Jinse Se hurriedly came down from the top floor of the Baiqing Building.
“What’s going on? Xiaohan, how could Su Cen not be at the hotel? I had the driver personally take her to the hotel last night.”
As soon as she arrived, she spoke with the urgency of a machine gun.
Yin Hehe was momentarily stunned.
She was personally taken to the hotel? Then why isn’t she here now? Could it be that Su Cen is not aware of today’s schedule?
She began to sense something was awry.
Just then, the director in charge of marketing for the building came down, noticing Jinse Se and Yin Hehe both in the hall.
Immediately, she ran over gleefully.
“Aunt Jinse, Assistant Xiaohan, our banquet this time is on fire, our account has gained hundreds of thousands in just one day, and they’re asking when Miss Su will start performing?”
“…”
One sentence made both Yin Hehe and Jinse Se even more irritable.
Su Cen is a big name in the entertainment industry, naturally, she would have many fans, and the traffic she brings is incredibly huge.
Therefore, if Su Cen doesn’t show up at this time, the Baiqing Building which is being watched by tens of millions of people will definitely fall into a huge crisis of trust.
Moreover, Mayor He also fancies Su Cen.
“Aunt Jinse, send someone to look again, if all else fails, we’ll have to notify Mr. Yin; this is a big issue!”
Finally, Yin Hehe gritted her teeth and decided to inform her brother.
No sooner had her words fallen than Jinse Se’s face turned pale; she was very reluctant, but there was simply no other choice at this critical moment.
Thus, within a few short minutes, Yin Beixiao also learned of the situation.
“You two, don’t panic. I’ll take people to look for her right now. As long as Su Cen is still in Jiangbei, I’ll dig three feet into the ground to find her!”
After he arrived, he did not blame Yin Hehe or Jinse Se.
However, his tone became very sharp when he mentioned Su Cen, the one who had stood up the Baiqing Building.
Seeing this, Yin Hehe felt a sense of relief at the bottom of her heart.
“Aunt Jinse, we need to contain this news now; otherwise, if the people outside find out that Su Cen is missing, we’ll be in big trouble.”
After seeing her brother leave, Yin Hehe immediately urged Aunt Jinse.
Jinse Se understood.
She turned around to go upstairs, to give a heads up to the tower, but suddenly, someone was coming down from above.
“What’s happening? Jinse Se, why hasn’t that Su Cen arrived yet?”
“Ah?”
Standing on the stairs, Jinse Se’s face immediately changed.
“Third Uncle, it’s… like this, she’s feeling a bit unwell, I’ve already sent someone over.”
She quickly made up an excuse.
But as soon as she finished speaking, a woman appeared behind Third Uncle of the Yin Family.
“What unwell? I just heard you guys tell cousin that Su Cen has vanished, you still dare to fool us?”
It was Yin Xue who had come out.
In an instant, upon hearing this, Third Uncle, who had just relaxed, immediately widened his eyes like copper bells, his anger flaring as he stared at Jinse Se.
“Jinse Se, is that true?”
“Third Uncle, I…”
“Tell me the truth!” a furious roar that made Jinse Se tremble on the spot.
She had no choice but to lower her head with a pale face.
“I’m sorry, Third Uncle, it’s my negligence at work; but rest assured, Mr. Yin has already personally set out to find her.”
“Nonsense!”
This response not only did not appease Third Uncle.
On the contrary, he became even more enraged on the staircase: “You’re telling me to rest assured? Do you realize everyone is waiting for this Su Cen?”
“Indeed, Aunt Jinse, didn’t you say everything was all set before? Why do such problems arise at the critical moment? Isn’t this blatantly dooming the Baiqing Building?”
At the critical moment, Yin Xue, standing at the entrance of the stairs, stirred the pot once again.
Jinse Se was completely drained of color.
Chapter 79: Thrilling and Exciting Let the Baiqing Building be finished…
This hat, once placed upon our heads, truly isn’t something just anyone can withstand, and the same goes for Jinse.
“It’s not like that, Third Master, I had already sent someone to take Su Cen to the hotel last night and personally confirmed it,” she said, her voice trembling slightly.
But as soon as she finished speaking, she was met with the Third Master’s harsh interrogation, “Then why did she disappear? A living person can’t just evaporate into thin air once she gets to Jiangbei, can she?”
“…”
Jinse was completely at a loss for words.
Just at that moment, because the noise from the staircase was too loud, some of the Yin Family members also heard and came running out.
“What happened? Su Cen is missing?”
“Yes, Second Madam, they said there’s no one in the hotel, and now we’re really in trouble.”
“!!!!!”
That one sentence suddenly got those of the Yin Family stirred up as well.
“Jin Jinse, what are you doing? Do you have any idea how many people are watching our Baiqing Building banquet? To drop the ball at such a critical time?”
“Exactly, after working at the Baiqing Building for so many years, is this how you handle things? If that female star doesn’t come, won’t all our previous efforts have been in vain?”
“This is the person taught by Yin Beixiao!”
This person even dragged Yin Beixiao into the mix.
And before the banquet began, they were full of praise for Jinse, almost wishing they could bring out all the nice things in their house for her to use in the preparations.
Jinse was trembling with anger.
Yin Hehe wasn’t faring much better. She stared at these profit-seeking things and finally couldn’t hold back, her gaze cold as she stepped forward.
“What are you getting so worked up about? If it weren’t for Aunt Jinse, would we even have this banquet in the first place?”
“…”
With just a few words, she immediately resorted to those people, and their expressions began to turn ugly.
Yin Hehe continued, “Who doesn’t make mistakes? Instead of harping on it, why not reflect on yourselves? Aren’t you all obligated to contribute to the Baiqing Building as members of the Yin Family? When something happens, all you do is blame others. Will that solve the problem?”
Those words were fierce, clearly criticizing these people for their lack of self-awareness and for having the audacity to blame others here.
On the spot, these people listened and their faces turned green.
But they didn’t dare to scold further because not a single word she said was wrong. If Jin Jinse was at fault, those who wandered around the building all-day were even more so.
“Enough, everyone stop talking. Let’s get moving and find her. The most urgent task is to bring Su Cen back.”
In the end, it was the fourth grandma who took the initiative to make a statement.
So, the Yin Family members finally all sprang into action to look for the missing person.
Only Yin Xue stayed put, standing in her original place. When she saw everyone leaving, her beautiful face twisted with anger.
“A bunch of trash!”
“…”
Trash?
When Yin Hehe heard this remark, her eyes lifted slightly, and two beams sharper than a blade’s edge shot towards this woman.
So, she was fanning the flames just now.
Then, could Su Cen’s disappearance also be related to her?
She had thought it strange that after such a big tumble yesterday, today had been so calm.
It turned out she was waiting to make a big move!
Her eyes narrowed, and in an instant, a hint of danger burst from her pupils, surrounding her with an air of deadly seriousness!
“Aunt Jin, do you know any other stars in the entertainment industry? If so, please contact them quickly.”
“Ah?”
Jinse, who was nearby, clearly hadn’t caught on.
“Why suddenly contact others? With so many people searching, we should be able to find her.”
“Hehe…” Yin Hehe just let out a cold laugh.
She didn’t respond to the question, but instead picked up her phone to personally look for a replacement.
However, a few minutes later, the few people she had found were all very disappointing.
“Hehe, I am not really active in the entertainment circle, and I don’t know many people,” she said.
“This is insane, you want me to find someone in the entertainment circle now? Who am I supposed to find? Besides, with Su Cen’s status, how many in the entertainment industry can compare?”
“…”
This remark from her best friend completely pushed Yin Hehe to rock bottom.
Indeed, considering Su Cen’s current status, there really aren’t many in the industry who can match him.
“Unless…” Suddenly, Caicai added another sentence.
“You do it?”
“What did you say?” Yin Hehe’s brow furrowed even tighter, “What do you mean ‘I do it’? Stop talking nonsense, I’m really in a hurry.”
“I’m not messing around, have you forgotten who you are? Damn, Su Cen might be a domestic first-rate celebrity, but goddess, you are internationally renowned!”
Caicai sent a big expressive sticker specially for emphasis.
She also threw in a photo from two years ago: Under the vast starry sky, a girl in a white dress was the center of attention, with a deserted alley in the bustling age…
Yin Hehe: “…”
She hung up the phone immediately.
It was absolutely impossible for her to appear with that identity. Since her return from Northern Myanmar, to dispel the doubts of that scoundrel, Meishan Qiandai had used a soluble ointment on her face.
Which means, within three months, her disguised face and her real face, the skin were fused together. Peeling it off would inevitably lead to a bloody mess and damage her real skin.
That time Sheng Siyuan took her to the aquarium, the reason he violently peeled off her face was this.
Therefore, she couldn’t possibly do something so risky.
Moreover, her foot was still injured, and if she appeared as the “Moonlight Goddess”, she might be directly exposed.
Yin Hehe returned to her office.
As she had expected, it wasn’t long before those who went out to search for Su Cen came back one by one with the news that they had not found him.
Jin Jinse’s face turned as white as if she were a corpse.
She glanced at the surveillance and saw that the election on the tower had ended, and they were about to enter the entertainment segment.
She felt an unprecedented despair.
“Xiaohan, I am sorry to the Yin family, sorry to the young master…”
“…”
Yin Hehe, who was contacting university professors on her phone, heard this sobbing speech, turned her head and glanced at her.
Even now, this lady was still worried about her guilt towards her brother and the Yin family!
“Don’t worry, I’ve already contacted someone. Send a car now to pick up the person from Huan Island Hotel.”
“Really?”
Jin Jinse immediately burst with joy!
A few minutes later, a car raced out of Baiqing Building towards Huan Island Hotel to pick up the person, and the hotel’s guest relations department swiftly changed the name and advertising.
“Zhou Mengyao? She actually managed to invite her?”
The news reached the VIP lounge on the third floor, and instantly, those waiting there to watch the drama had their expressions change dramatically.
“What’s going on? Where did Jin Jinse find her? Zhou Mengyao’s status in the entertainment industry is not low either.”
The third master of the Yin family immediately questioned.
The second lady nodded, “I’ve seen her dramas; she’s been very popular these years. Jin Jinse has some ability, at such a critical moment, to have invited another big name.”
“…”
In just a few seconds, the faces of these people had changed for the worse.
Especially the Yin Rong family.
Chapter 80: Jealous of the Ghost But soon, among the crowd, the vicious-minded Yin Xue came up with a scheme.
“No worries, we can start spreading the news that Baiqing Building has changed its staff right now. Su Cen’s fans are numerous, and if they can’t see her, they will surely be disappointed and angry.”
“Right, then we create some marketing accounts to stir up a fight between the fans of the two companies. This way, Baiqing Building will naturally be thrust into the limelight.”
At this moment, He Wanqiu also came up with a suggestion.
This mother and daughter duo really lived up to the saying “birds of a feather flock together,” even their genes were equally malicious.
So, very quickly, this group began to execute their plan.
Meanwhile, in the back office, Hehe, who was mobility impaired, couldn’t pay any attention to these matters as Jinse had stepped out to receive some guests.
“Assistant Han, the mayor’s secretary is looking for Auntie Jinse, probably asking about the event particulars.”
“Ah?”
Upon hearing this, Hehe’s brows immediately furrowed.
It seemed that she had no choice but to go to the tower as well; otherwise, during the time Zhou Mengyao was visiting, chaos would ensue if no one was seen upstairs.
Finally, Hehe got up with the support of her crutches.
A few minutes later, at the tower.
“Mr. Lan, please take a rest and have some tea. Later, the building will arrange a performance to elate us and celebrate the successful conclusion of our election event.”
“Yes, Mr. Lan, this way, please.”
“…”
It had to be admitted, under the leadership of Jinse, Baiqing Building’s efficiency in handling affairs was indeed high.
Not even twenty minutes had passed since the end of the election, and all the tables and chairs on the tower had been cleared away, turning it into a grand banquet scene. At this moment, people who had attended the event were inside, mingling with champagne in hand, chatting and laughing jovially.
Hehe entered the room.
She saw the secretary of the influential Zhou, followed the Customer Relations Manager straight to him.
“Secretary Zhong, I apologize, but Auntie Jinse is currently tied up with something outside. This is her assistant, Miss Han.”
The manager introduced Hehe’s identity.
In such a setting, with so many people around, someone like her, a staff member of the building, wouldn’t attract much attention.
Hehe confidently extended her hand to the secretary.
“Hello, Secretary Zhong, my name is Han Lina; if there’s anything you need, please don’t hesitate to ask.”
“…”
The moment her words fell, was it because the sight of her with crutches was so conspicuous? Or was it that her appearance was not agreeable? Several gazes from the banquet hall swept over her.
Among them, one gaze recognized her.
Instantly, a sharply defined handsome face darkened, and the pitch-black pupils behind the thin lenses also turned gloomy.
That damned woman!
So, it was her— the one who, in just a few days, offered advice to Baiqing Building that snatched away a significant amount of business from his hotels!
“Secretary Zhong?”
Hehe hadn’t noticed yet and was still waiting for a response from the secretary.
Finally, the secretary made a move.
He stared at the ugly face before him. A flash of disgust in his eyes, he outright ignored the extended hand.
“When exactly will your programs start? The guests are getting impatient.”
“??”
Even the Customer Relations Manager couldn’t help but show a hint of anger at this.
But Hehe was indifferent.
Seeing that the secretary was unwilling to shake hands, she calmly withdrew her hand.
“I’m sorry, Secretary Zhong, this time’s program involves a large setup, and some props need to be prepared. We need you to be patient and wait a little longer.”
She replied with neither arrogance nor submission.
At this sight, not only did Sheng Siyuan’s intense gaze soften a bit from a distance, Lan Yufeng, who had come from the Provincial City, also suddenly took an interest.
This little assistant has some courage, oh.
“How long do we have to wait? Let me tell you, Mr. He is already so impatient to meet Su Cen that he has urged me several times.”
“…”
At those words, Yin Hehe was not so composed anymore.
She pursed her lips tightly, her hands gripping two crutches, also slightly turning white.
Was He Li so eager to meet Su Cen? If it wasn’t her who arrived later, would he flip out?
Yin Hehe sensed a hint of trouble.
“Secretary Zhou, what’s going on here?”
Just as the two were communicating, suddenly, a young man dressed meticulously, whose every move exuded the air of a noble scion, walked over with a glass of champagne in hand.
The secretary immediately put on a different face.
“Mr. Lan, why have you come over? It’s nothing, I was just asking the restaurant when our event will begin?”
He said with a smiling face, his nodding and bowing obsequiousness a complete turnaround from just moments before.
Upon hearing this, Yin Hehe saw the young man named Lan look towards her with smiling peach blossom eyes.
“Miss, no need to worry, we just finished a meeting and haven’t had time to relax. Go ahead with the preparations; it’s not too late to start serving when it’s time to eat.”
“Really?”
Overjoyed, Yin Hehe blurted out to the man.
If they had so much time, they could go find Su Cen again and this way the crisis could be averted.
“Of course, here, I call the shots.”
Lan Yufeng looked at those eyes, which became instantly radiant like precious, exquisite gemstones, and his smile deepened.
He had never seen such beautiful eyes.
Yin Hehe was ecstatic.
She was about to thank this man and then go to find Su Cen, but before she could speak, another man arrived at their group with a casual air.
“Really? Mr. Lan, making such a statement puts me, the host of Jiangbei, in a difficult position.”
His hands were casually stuck in the pockets of his dress pants, the collar of his custom-made white shirt left open, revealing a finely sculpted collarbone.
This man, having arrived here, dropped the sharp and serious demeanor from the office; the laziness and elegance he exuded made it hard to look away.
Yin Hehe felt a bad premonition rising up on the spot.
What does this jerk think he’s doing?
“President Sheng, don’t get me wrong, I just saw that this young lady seemed not quite ready, so I wanted to give her a bit more time.”
Lan Yufeng, holding his champagne glass, quickly explained to the seemingly displeased man.
Young lady?
Upon this remark, not only did Sheng Siyuan’s eyebrows fiercely twitch, but his handsome face almost dripped with water.
Even Yin Hehe instantly felt a wave of discomfort.
Could Mr. Lan be blind? How could anyone with eyes see her as a young lady?
“How could that be? Baiqing Building is a hundred-year heritage of Jiangbei, always serving guests with integrity. So, rest assured, whatever time they said it will begin, it will begin. As the chairman of the business association here, I’ll make sure of it.”
“…”
At that, Yin Hehe glared furiously at the man, rage enough to murder him bubbling within her.
What the hell did it have to do with him?
Minutes later, when the crowd dispersed, she finally had the chance to lash out at this bastard.
“Mr. Sheng, what are you doing? The Baiqing Building’s matters don’t need your meddling!”
“What did you say?”
With just that, the man looked down at her from above, his voice turning very dangerous.
