Chapter 230 - Wasn’t this Ye Qing’s opportunity to appear in front of socialites and shine radiantly and elegantly in the novel? (3)

The mayor and his wife were chatting and laughing with a group of people . Someone came over and whispered something into the mayor’s ear . Smiling, the mayor raised his glass at the crowd and said, “Everyone, please help yourself . I’ll be back . ”

The group of people smiled and exchanged courtesies .

Holding her husband’s hand, the mayor’s wife walked over to Lu Beichuan and Ye Zhen . Smiling, she looked over Mrs . Lu, who was the topic of buzzing gossip . “I’ve been curious about the wife that CEO Lu has been hiding . I finally get to meet you today . Seeing for myself is better than hearing about you from others . ”

Mayor Zhou was over fifty years old, but he was diligent about exercising and looked younger than his age . He looked elegant and graceful in his suit . His wife’s sensible decorum was even more impeccable than his . Eyes brimming with a smile, she looked amiable and approachable .

Holding a wine glass, Ye Zhen smiled . “Not at all . I’m the one that hasn’t had the opportunity to meet you . It’s my honor to meet you today . ”

Lu Beichuan didn’t act pretentious in front of the mayor . “Today is Madam’s birthday . Zhenzhen and I came here on behalf of Lu Corporation to wish you a happy birthday . May you be eternally youthful . Here’s a little something . Please accept it . ”

In these types of exchanges between people of their standings, any gift had to be carefully considered . To avoid the risk of gossip, gifts couldn’t be too expensive . It couldn’t be too shabby either, or it would be laughed by others . Lu Beichuan had chosen a valuable necklace as the birthday gift .

“I got this necklace from the charity auction last time . I hope Madam will accept it . ”

The mayor’s wife glanced at the necklace . He said he got it from a charity auction, but smart people would know that he was just using the charity auction as a veneer .

“Thank you Mr . Lu, I like it a lot . ”

Mayor Zhou imperceptibly snuck a glance at Lu Beichuan . After he finished the wine in his glass, someone whispered in his ear again . Mayor Zhou smiled and said, “Make yourselves at home . I still have something to do, excuse me . ”

Lu Beichuan slightly nodded and watched Mayor Zhou enthusiastically walking towards a new guest .

Staying calm and collected while the crowd shuttled back and forth around them, Ye Zhen whispered, “Why did you say you got the necklace at a charity auction?”

Lu Beichuan didn’t hide anything from her . “Only by using a charity auction as a front, no one can make false charges . ”

“What do you mean?”

Lu Beichuan calmly drank wine, looking at the other guests at the reception . There were all sorts of people . “You won’t understand unless you’re in it . The line between government officials and business people is never clear . You just need to know there’s no one that’s genuinely clean in officialedom or the business world . ”

Ye Zhen naturally understood this logic . She raised her eyebrows at Lu Beichuan . “What about you then? What color are you?”

Lu Beichuan paused and nonchalantly turned away . “I’ll become white . ”

In the novel, Lu Beichuan had been extremely ruthless in the business world . Using collusion with government officials, he had been successful in every endeavor . Countless times, he had used illegal methods to suppress other companies . Seen as wandering in the gray area between the black and white, but in truth, he had blackened a long time ago .

Ye Zhen thought about the past year . She had paid attention to the companies that Lu Beichuan had suppressed in the novel, but they were all fine in this world . This proved that Lu Beichuan hadn’t done anything bad to those companies, and his methods were at least clean .

“I’ll take you to meet some people . ”

Ye Zhen smiled and held Lu Beichuan’s hand . She sociably mingled with the clusters of well-known people in the business world .

It was only that there were a lot of unfriendly gazes directed at her . Ye Zhen looked in that direction and saw a group of women gathered together . From a distance, Shen Weiyin respectfully acknowledged her .  Standing behind Shen Weiyin, Ye Qing expressionlessly looked at her .

After seeing Ye Qing, Ye Zhen turned back and grinned at Lu Beichuan .

How interesting . Ye Qing was also here . Would she get to witness the famous scenes in the novel?

Under Ye Zhen’s gaze, Lu Beichuan strangely felt a chill behind him . Not knowing why, he furrowed his brow .
