Ji Ziqing did not know if Xing Shaohuang was doing it on purpose. Ever since that day, she had seen him with a different woman every few days. She tried to chase one away, but he brought another woman with him. It was as if watching her go crazy was his pleasure.
On this day, Ji Ziqing was handling some matters at her studio. Her subordinates said that the other party had put in a lot of good words and even raised the price, wanting to keep them on that case.
Ji Ziqing did not object too much. After all, she would benefit from this case.
"Amy, there's a cocktail party tonight?”Ji Ziqing looked at the invitation card in her hand and asked her assistant.
"Yes, an old client that we have worked with several times in the past. This time, he specially sent an invitation over and said that you must do us the favor this time.”Xiao Mi smiled at Ji Ziqing." Boss, do you think the boss has fallen for you?!"”
"Go!" " She hasn't even seen me before," Ji Ziqing smiled." I'd believe it if she said she fancies you."”
Xiao Mi's face was bitter as she mumbled,""It would be fine if she took a fancy to me. I could fly up to the branches and become a phoenix. I could be in the real estate industry and marry a diamond bachelor. Then, I wouldn't have to worry about food and drink here every day and smile at others for a small deal!”
Ji Ziqing felt helpless. This group of lackeys had always been disrespectful in front of her, but she felt that they were all very cute. She also felt that she could only find herself in such a work environment and be relaxed and happy.
Seeing that Ji Ziqing was silent, the assistant continued,""Boss, our small studio has been established for three years. You've been behind the scenes all this time and haven't even shown your face. Others are all curious. Are we going to continue being mysterious like this?"
Ji Ziqing pondered.
She wasn't being mysterious for the sake of being mysterious. She just found it troublesome. Previously, the studio's scale was relatively small, so there were some things that did not need her at all. The others under her could solve them directly.
However, the studio was getting better and better. In the past three years, their reputation had improved, and they had come into contact with more and more people. If they wanted to remain mysterious again, they would inevitably be called pretentious.
"I didn't intend to be mysterious." Ji Ziqing said.
The assistant didn't quite understand what she meant. Didn't she mean to remain mysterious by not showing her face for three years?
"Are you going to attend the party or not?”
" Of course, I'll participate!"
Just treat it as a vacation for herself and relax. It was not a good thing to get to know some new people. It should be helpful for her future work.
"Where's Mo Chen? He's not back from his business trip yet?”
Mo Chen was her partner. In the past three years, she had been the boss behind her while Mo Chen was the boss on the surface. He basically had the final say in the studio. Only when there were some things that they could not decide would they come to her to discuss. Instead of saying that the two of them were working partners, it was more like they were good friends.
"He took the plane last night and will arrive this afternoon.”
"Alright, give him a call and tell him to come with me tonight.”After thinking for a while, he said,"Forget it, I'll call him later. I'll go to the airport to pick him up."”
"Alright."
Ever since Ji Ziqing got married three months ago, she had not seen Mo Chen. The two of them usually only contacted each other on the phone. Usually, he was not around when she went to the studio or she did not have time to go when he came back.
Ji Ziqing was wearing a pair of large sunglasses. The large lenses covered half of her face, making it look even smaller.
Ji Ziqing recognized him at first glance as he walked out of the passageway with his luggage.
He was tall and wore a well-tailored suit, which made him stand out in the crowd.
Ji Ziqing always said that he was so handsome that she did not know who would be worthy of him in the future. Mo Chen's personality was relatively cold. Usually, he didn't say much nonsense. When she said it, he would only smile.
Mo Chen quickly saw Ji Ziqing waiting outside.
"Hey, handsome, can you give me a call?”Ji Ziqing walked over and was about to put her arm on Mo Chen's shoulder.
However, Mo Chen was too tall and she couldn't reach him at all.
Ji Ziqing's expression turned serious as she hooked her finger at Mo Chen. He obediently bent down and gave her a height that she could hook.
"Be good." Ji Ziqing smiled in satisfaction.
Although the two of them rarely met, Ji Ziqing would joke with him every time.
"Why are you free today?" Mo Chen asked as the two of them walked out.
"I miss you." Ji Ziqing shrugged. She knew that Mo Chen would most likely not believe this lame excuse, so she stopped joking with him." The real estate development project in Zhanjiang is completed tonight. There's a cocktail party, and they invited me over. I thought about it and decided to go since I have nothing else to do.”
"Since when did you care about such a small matter?”Mo Chen was in disbelief." Are you sure you want to start reorganizing the studio?”
Actually, this small studio had many opportunities to expand in the past, but Ji Ziqing had never paid much attention to these things.
"Otherwise, I'll make you talented and ambitious people never have a day to stand out?”Ji Ziqing retorted," Ah, why don't we do it this way? It saves me a lot of effort and I don't have to worry about going bankrupt one day. Forget it, I'm going home. I won't be attending the party today!"”
Ji Ziqing strode forward, but Mo Chen pulled her back by the back of her neck.
She giggled. These friends had followed her for so long out of friendship. She couldn't not plan for their future because of herself. With their abilities, they could go to a bigger place and take up a job with higher pay.
"Why not? You don't look too good. Did something happen to you recently?”
"Where? No, Mo Chen, I realized that you've been a little fussy recently?”
The two of them chatted and laughed as they walked to the exit. They got into the car and did not stay for long.
There were only a few hours left until the cocktail party. They were still considered newcomers in this circle. Although they had made a small appearance, they were not late for their first time attending such a large-scale cocktail party.
Hence, the two of them went to the mall to buy Ji Ziqing a dress for the cocktail party. Then, they went to her friend's styling room to do some simple makeup. It was almost time.
When the two of them arrived, the party was about to start. It could be said that no one present knew Ji Ziqing, but many people came to greet Mo Chen when they saw him. It was as if it was unbelievable to see him at such an occasion.
That was true. Mo Chen had never participated in such an event. No matter how powerful someone invited him, he would always use an excuse to decline. Everyone was used to it. Usually, they would send him a symbolic invitation. As for whether he came or not, everyone tacitly agreed that they did not mind.
His unexpected appearance this time was indeed beyond everyone's expectations.
"Mo Chen?" " What a rare guest!" A voice called out with a hint of suspicion. When she saw that it was indeed the person he was calling out, she smiled. What brings you here today?”
"President Chen, I've specially listened to our boss's orders this time.”When Mo Chen saw that it was the CEO of Zhanjiang Real Estate, he nodded politely and shook hands with him." Our boss said that we can not give face to others, but we must give face to President Chen.”
Behind him, Ji Ziqing thought, When did I tell him this? It turned out that Big Ice Block Mo Chen could lie.
"Boss Ji?" When CEO Chen heard this, he laughed out loud with a satisfied smile on his face." Why don't I see Boss Ji around? Don't tell me you're not going to give me face this time? Boss Ji has always been mysterious. Furthermore, I'm really curious about the person who can make such capable people like you follow him.”
Although he sounded like he was complaining, he didn't sound angry at all. After all, letting Mo Chen come was already giving him a lot of face.
"President Chen, you're wrong. I put down all the work at hand this time just to attend President Chen's celebration party.”This was what Ji Ziqing said.
As he spoke, he walked out from behind Mo Chen.
She was wearing a pair of eight-centimeter high heels and a one-shoulder black dress that reached her knees. There was a large crimson flower accessory on her chest, which broke the dullness of black and made her look more capable. Her curly hair that had been trimmed into big waves, coupled with her oval face, made her look even more energetic.
President Chen was stunned. He recalled what she had just said and seemed to have thought of something.
"Don't tell me you're…"
"Hello, CEO Chen. I'm the boss of Qingtian Studio, Ji Ziqing.”Ji Ziqing smiled and took the initiative to shake hands with CEO Chen. She did not keep her identity a secret anymore.
CEO Chen couldn't help but exclaim. He shook her hand and said,""I always thought that the behind-the-scenes boss might be an extremely capable man, but I didn't expect a strong woman to be so outstanding! Seeing is believing. Boss Ji is really giving me face!”
"President Chen, don't be so polite with me. My small studio can do what it is now all thanks to the few big orders that President Chen gave me!”
The two of them exchanged pleasantries for a while before a commotion suddenly came from the door.
The few of them looked at the door at the same time. The bustling crowd dispersed, and a tall figure carrying a tall woman broke into everyone's sight.
Even from a distance, Ji Ziqing could still see who the man was. Her body stiffened, and her smile froze on her face.
Xing Shaohuang!
He actually brought her to a public place so openly. Was he planning to bring all kinds of vases to various occasions if she didn't come to this banquet today?
She, Ji Ziqing, was Xing Shaohuang's legitimate wife. Why should she help him hide it? What right did she have to hide behind others and make him give her such a big embarrassment?
Mo Chen felt her change in an instant. He followed her gaze and frowned slightly.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:111420183: 43PM #Cancel Review All: wdd201302 Time:111420185: 54PM #
