“Oh, she must be outstanding,” President Chen praised . “I had a meal with your principal not too long ago . My company manufactures all the receipts in your school . ”
He sounded so arrogant .
Ming Ansheng smirked mockingly . “That’s too low class . ”
“Is there even any class?” Yan Rusheng refuted, rolling his eyes . He then turned around and said to Secretary Wang, “Secretary Wang, I’ll make a move first . ”
He started walking back towards Lu Yinan and the rest .
Ming Ansheng watched Yan Rusheng and shook his head . If they compared the sharpness of the tongue, he would lose to Yan Rusheng by a mile .
He hurriedly greeted the secretary and followed Yan Rusheng .
Both of them walked by Bai Jing .
Bai Jing lifted her head just in time to see Yan Rusheng walk past . Shock filled her face, then panic .
Yan Rusheng was in the crowd earlier, so she wasn’t able to see him . But now that he appeared before her, she felt so ugly and inferior .
Because today she was… she was a sacrifice for Lei Yong’s gain .
Yan Rusheng’s gaze swept over Bai Jing . Bai Jing lowered her head upon seeing him, so he didn’t stop in his tracks .
But Ming Ansheng did . He smiled at her . “Bai Jing . ”
Bai Jing nodded, replying softly, “Young Master Ming . ”
She slowly lifted her head to look at him .
Ming Ansheng talked to her as though nobody was around . “You’re not in school, so has Yueyue returned home?”
Bai Jing nodded . “Yup, she said she would . ”
Lei Yong saw Ming Ansheng having a conversation with Bai Jing and it pleasantly surprised him . He asked Bai Jing, “Xiaojing, you know President Ming?”
He looked at Ming Ansheng, trying to curry favor with him .
But Ming Ansheng didn’t even look at him . Still looking at Bai Jing, he said, “Yan Rusheng, Lu Yinan and myself are over there with the others . When you’re free, I’ll introduce you to them . ”
Bai Jing nodded and agreed .
Ming Ansheng smiled and walked back towards the group .
“Bai Jing, how do you know President Ming?” Lei Yong asked her excitedly . He was very surprised to know that Bai Jing knew Ming Ansheng .
She plainly replied, “He’s friends with Su Yue’s third sister-in-law . ”
She had purposely mentioned ‘Su Yue’s third sister-in-law’ to avoid saying Yan Rusheng’s name . She felt like she was unworthy to even mention his name .
He was so elegant and refined, yet she was…
The more she thought about it, the lower she bowed her head . She wanted to crawl into a hole .
“President Lei, I booked a private room upstairs . You’re welcome to have a seat later,” President Chen said to Lei Yong . “I see some familiar faces . I’m going over to greet them . ”
Lei Yong nodded and agreed .
After President Chen left, Lei Yong held Bai Jing’s waist and pushed her forward . “If you win Miss Su over, you don’t have to play up to President Chen that old fogey . ”
Bai Jing bowed her head in silence . Her grip on her bag tightened and her gaze was filled with hatred .
“The look Lei Yong gives Bai Jing seems inappropriate,” Ming Ansheng said when he returned to the group . They were chatting happily, but he didn’t forget to observe Bai Jing .
Because she was Su Yue’s good friend—her only friend .
Given his intellect, how could he not tell what was on Lei Yong’s mind?
However, there was nothing much he could do .
Yan Rusheng sipped on his red wine, glancing over at Bai Jing and Lei Yong, but he remained silent .
