Tong Jiangxin said calmly, and Liao Jianing also had a smile on his face, but the most important thing in their hearts was helplessness. Being from a famous family, what outsiders saw was glamorous, but what kind of greed was hidden under this gorgeous appearance?
And ugly, only the person involved will know it.
"Jiang Xin".
Someone called her from behind again. Tong Jiangxin turned around and saw Zhang Qizheng walking over.
Zhang Qizheng also saw Liao Jianing next to Tong Jiangxin. He was slightly surprised in his eyes, and then said, "Do you know each other?"
When Tong Jiangxin was desperate, she didn't want Liao Jianing to be implicated, so she didn't let Liao Jianing tell Zhang Qizheng that they had a very good relationship, so Zhang Qizheng didn't know.
At this time, Tong Jiangxin just smiled and called, "Uncle Zhang."
Liao Jianing also smiled, nodded, and said, "Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Qizheng was such a smart person, he didn't tell him, he just smiled and said, "Jiang Xin, how are you doing lately?"
Tong Jiangxin smiled and replied, "Everything is fine with me. Where is Uncle Zhang? He must be very busy recently?"
Zhang Qizheng chuckled, and then said, "It's okay, okay, I've been thinking about when to ask you for a meal. The two companies have begun to cooperate. In the future, we will spend more time together. It just so happens that you and
I also know Xiao Liao, so it’s more convenient.”
Tong Jiangxin nodded politely, and then replied, "Uncle Zhang is too polite, I should be the one to invite you."
The two chatted politely for a while. Seeing that Zhang Guangcheng, who was surrounded by other company bosses, was about to come over, Tong Jiangxin hurriedly said, "Uncle Zhang, I have something to do over there. I will talk to you later."
Zhang Qizheng said, "Okay, you go."
Liao Jianing nodded to Zhang Qizheng, and then walked away with Tong Jiangxin.
After walking far enough away, Tong Jiangxin lowered her voice and said, "Oh my God, if our boss comes over, you can't expect to have any private time tonight."
Liao Jianing also said, "The words our boss said just now about "Xiao Liao" scared me so much that my scalp stood up."
As he spoke, Liao Jianing clicked his tongue twice and then trembled all over.
Tong Jiangxin turned her head and said with a half-smile, "What do you mean?"
Liao Jianing replied, "Zhang Qizheng and I have only met less than five times in total. I always thought he didn't remember me. I didn't expect that when I was next to you, I would call you Xiao Liao. Even if you want to get close, it won't be easy."
You should also consider other people's feelings, okay? I have goosebumps all over my body!"
Seeing Liao Jianing's disgusted expression, Tong Jiangxin couldn't help but laugh.
The two of them walked forward while talking, but they didn't expect to look up and face McGuarloh, who was walking from the opposite side.
McGuarloh was accompanied by several industry insiders in crisp suits. They were also talking, but he didn't expect that they happened to be facing each other.
Before Tong Jiangxin had time to take back the smile on her face, she was also in a daze when she first saw McGaro. The illusion in those few seconds made her want to use her smile and call out Mike, but the illusion will always be there.
will not become reality.
There is no going back between them, after she said such hurtful words...
Liao Jianing also saw McGaro and felt something strange about Tong Jiangxin next to him. Liao Jianing first smiled and called, "Hi, Mike, long time no see."
McGaro is the second son of Asia Pacific, and there are only a handful of people who can call him Mike freely. Seeing this, several people around him looked at Liao Jianing, and then saw Tong Jiangxin next to Liao Jianing. They all recognized him.
Get down and leave first.
There was also a fleeting look of embarrassment on McGarlo's face, but he quickly smiled and said, "Jianing, it's been a long time."
Liao Jianing knew what was going on between McGaro and Tong Jiangxin, and also knew that it would be awkward for them to meet like this, so she said as cheerfully as possible, "I haven't contacted you for a while. How are you? How are you doing lately?"
McGaro smiled lightly and said, "It's not bad."
After saying that, he put his eyes slightly on Tong Jiangxin next to Liao Jianing, and then said, "Where are you two, how are you doing recently?"
The question was asked by two people. In fact, both of them could tell that McGarloh just wanted to know about Tong Jiangxin's current situation.
Liao Jianing and Tong Jiangxin held their arms, and Liao Jianing gave Tong Jiangxin some strength without leaving any trace. Tong Jiangxin then forced a smile and replied, "I'm fine."
The two people looked at each other, and their four dark eyes had different meanings.
McGullough is longing but repressed, while Tong Jiangxin is guilty and evasive.
After being silent for more than five seconds, McGaro gently raised the corners of his lips and said softly, "Yeah, that's fine."
There were only four words, but it made Tong Jiangxin feel even more guilty. Even Liao Jianing, who was standing aside, looked helpless.
Both Tong Jiangxin and McGarlo were silent. At this time, the initiative fell into the hands of Liao Jianing. She originally wanted to take the embarrassed Tong Jiangxin and leave first, but suddenly thought of something. She looked at McGarlo and said,
"Hey, Mike, let me ask you something."
McGarloh cast his gaze on Liao Jianing's face, and then said, "Well, what's the matter?"
Liao Jianing said, "I heard that you are getting engaged, right?"
Liao Jianing looked at McGarlo and asked as if no one else was watching.
As soon as these words came out, both McGaro and Tong Jiangxin were stunned.
Tong Jiangxin's heart skipped a beat and she felt inexplicably uncomfortable, but she didn't know why.
After being stunned for a few seconds, McGaro lowered his gaze slightly, seemed to smile, and then said softly, "I didn't expect things to spread so quickly. There really are no secrets in our industry."
Although there was a smile on McGullough's face, the smile was obviously self-deprecating.
Both Tong Jiangxin and Liao Jianing had surprise on their faces. Liao Jianing said, "Are you really going to get engaged?!"
McGaro smiled lightly and said, "Yeah."
Liao Jianing had a strange expression and didn't speak for a while.
"Congratulations."
After a brief silence between the three of them, it was Tong Jiangxin who finally spoke first to say congratulations.
McGaro looked at Tong Jiangxin. She had a beautiful smile on her face and her eyes were clear.
McGaro stared at her for a while and then said, "Thank you."
When Liao Jianing saw this, she also said, "Okay, congratulations. When the invitation comes down, don't forget to send us a copy. We're going to join in the fun."
"This is natural," McGarloh said.
After saying that, he raised his eyes and looked away, and then said, "If someone calls me over there, I'll leave first."
He nodded and seemed to run away in a hurry.
Looking at McGarlo's leaving figure, Liao Jianing said, "Tsk, tsk, I really didn't expect that just a while ago I was chasing you like something, and now I'm about to get engaged. Sure enough, super rich families are unreliable!"
The smile on Tong Jiangxin's face disappeared. When she saw McGaro walking through the crowd and quickly disappearing from her sight, she said, "No wonder he..."
He was really serious at first, at least at that time, but she rejected him so cruelly. Although I don't know whether McGuarloh and Yin Shirley got engaged out of anger with her, I really can't blame him. From the beginning to the end, it was not him.
's mistake.
Liao Jianing disagreed, and she said, "Hey... what is true love to put it bluntly? It's just the product of lust and weighing the pros and cons. It's so high-sounding, who are you kidding?!"
Tong Jiangxin whispered, "I have met his fiancée. She likes Mike very much. Even if she gets married, she will treat Mike well."
Liao Jianing turned her head to look at Tong Jiangxin, and saw that there was really no other expression on her face except a trace of guilt. Liao Jianing couldn't help but said, "Hey, let me tell you, you gave up on a good potential stock like Mike. It really didn't matter at all."
Don’t you feel bad?”
Tong Jiangxin replied, "I don't like Mike, why would I want to be with him just because of his family background?"
Liao Jianing said, "In this world, do you like to be the breadwinner? Or...do you have someone you like now?"
Tong Jiangxin was almost surrounded by Liao Jianing and almost agreed to speak out.
Keeping her mouth shut in time, Tong Jiangxin rolled her eyes and said, "If emotions could be controlled with reason, there wouldn't be so many people in this world trapped by love!"
This sentence seemed to poke Liao Jianing's weakness. Something quickly flashed in her eyes, and she looked away. She said impatiently, "Forget it, I won't say it anymore, I'm upset."
Tong Jiangxin smiled lightly, then took her arm and said, "How come you can fall out of love faster than you can flip through a book?"
Liao Jianing said, "I really don't know if it's because of the bad times, but things are not going well for the two of us!"
Tong Jiangxin thought to herself that she really didn't dare to tell Liao Jianing that she was already with Lu Chengxi when she was so upset, otherwise... tsk tsk, I can't imagine it.
As a result, during this business reception, Tong Jiangxin and Liao Jianing had been hiding everywhere, fearing that the swarms of crazy bees and butterflies would swarm over.
Finally, when the reception was about to end, Liao Jianing said to Tong Jiangxin, "I'm exhausted. This night was like a spy operation, but I can finally go back."
Tong Jiang said happily, "Yeah, go back and take a shower and go to bed early."
Liao Jianing said, "Did you drive here? I didn't drive, I'll take a taxi to take you back."
Tong Jiangxin thought that Lu Chengxi was still waiting for her in the parking lot. When she was thinking about what to say, Li Mingyang came over and said, "How are you two going back? Do you need me to send you off?"
Liao Jianing was too lazy to speak, while Tong Jiangxin hurriedly spoke out as if she had seen a savior, "Jia Ning didn't drive, you take her back, I'll leave first, call me when you get back."
After saying that, without waiting for Liao Jianing's expression of eagerness to eat someone, Tong Jiangxin picked up her skirt and walked quickly towards the security door.
After walking for a while, Tong Jiangxin breathed a sigh of relief when she didn't see Liao Jianing catching up.
From the elevator at the security door to the parking lot, because the specific location was not mentioned, Tong Jiangxin could only look around to find Lu Chengxi.
