Chapter 428 A Shortcut

The scene became very quiet as the two talked.

Shen Yuyan keenly noticed that something was wrong with Wu Wenhao's expression, and quickly stood up from the sofa and walked lightly to Lin Muxue's side.

"Brother Wu, long time no see. I didn't expect you and Xiaoxue also know each other. What a coincidence."

She had a decent smile on her face and spoke in a natural tone, breaking the brief silence and the atmosphere in the box eased a little.

"What a coincidence." Wu Wenhao took a deep breath, trying to calm his inner turmoil, and put on a polite smile again, "Ms. Lin, let's sit down and talk."

"Let's sit down and chat for a while, Xiaoxue." Shen Yuyan held Lin Muxue's arm, his tone relaxed and intimate.

She and Wu Wenhao had only met a few times, and her relationship with Liu Xuan was just that of an ordinary friend.

The reason for coming to this dinner was, on the one hand, for Xu Qing's mother, Ms. Han, and on the other hand, to get closer to Wu Wenhao.

In any case, for her, Lin Muxue at this moment is a very good bridge.

Lin Muxue glanced at her, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and nodded, "Okay."

In fact, she knew very well that Shen Yuyan was intentionally using her today, and she also felt envy and jealousy in her eyes.

But she didn't care at all, and even enjoyed the feeling of suppressing the other person.

Return to the sofa area.

Everyone still looked at Lin Muxue, their eyes full of curiosity and amazement.

Even if you don’t understand luxury goods, you can still tell a lot from the other person’s outfit and aura.

Coupled with Wu Wenhao's respect and enthusiasm, it further proves that the other party is extraordinary.

Lin Muxue took the initiative to greet him: "Hello, Qingqing, I heard from Yuyan that you happened to be upstairs, so I came here uninvited, do you mind?"

"It's okay, it's okay, you're very welcome." Xu Qing quickly moved aside and made room.

Although she trained and slapped "Liu Ruyan" in various ways in the novel, in reality, seeing her wanton and aggressive aura, Miss Xu Qing still took a step back.

Lin Muxue smiled and sat down gracefully next to Xu Qing.

Wu Wenhao took the initiative to pick up the teapot and poured her a cup, "Ms. Lin, please have some tea."

"Thank you."

Han Yajing on the other side blinked and whispered, "Qingqing, is this your friend?"

"Well, this is Lin Muxue, a friend of Yanyan and me." Xu Qing introduced in a low voice: "Xiaoxue, this is my mother."

"Um... hello, Auntie." Lin Muxue's expression was stunned for a moment, and then she had the mind to look at other people seriously.

Wow, is this a family dinner?
"Hello Xiaoxue, have you eaten?" Han Yajing waved with a smile, her face full of pride.

My daughter has really made it, and all her friends are so impressive.

Lin Muxue said quickly: "I'm attending a cocktail party downstairs. I came here just to say hello to Qingqing."

She was too embarrassed to stay and eat for free, so she came here purely to get closer to Xu Qing.

And judging from the situation, it’s not advisable to stay here for long. Just pretend and leave.

Liu Xuan's eyes flickered slightly. She held her fiancé's arm and asked, "Wenhao, how did you and Miss Lin know each other? Why haven't I heard you mention it before?"

Lin Muxue, who suddenly appeared, was beautiful and aggressive, and judging from her temperament and outfit, she was definitely not an ordinary person.

She was very curious about how the other party became friends with Shen Yuyan and Xu Qing.

Wu Wenhao picked up the teacup and took a sip, trying to hide his inner turmoil.

He looked at Lin Muxue and tried to keep his tone calm: "Ms. Lin is Mr. Tang's assistant. We met before in a business meeting."

Liu Xuan said nervously, "The Mr. Tang you are referring to is..."

"It's that Tang Song." Wu Wenhao exhaled and looked in the direction of Xu Qing.

As he finished speaking, the surroundings fell into silence again.

What a coincidence.

We were just talking about Mr. Tang, and then his assistant came over.

Shen Yuyan was stunned, not quite understanding the situation, and asked in surprise: "Brother Wu, Sister Xuanxuan, do you know Tang Song?"

Liu Xuan opened her mouth and looked at Xu Qing, who seemed familiar yet unfamiliar, and was speechless for a moment.

Wu Wenhao nodded solemnly, "I know him. We were just talking about Qingqing's boyfriend, but I didn't expect that he was actually Mr. Tang."

"Hehe." Xu Qing's eyes twitched, and she looked at Lin Muxue with some nervousness and fear.

She knew in her heart that Tang Song had more than one girlfriend, and she was the later one.

Maybe Lin Muxue is one of them.

Now we are discussing this topic in front of each other, and there are some elders present.

If the other party gets excited and says something, your image will be completely ruined.

Lin Muxue moved her lips and pretended to be calm and said, "Qingqing is indeed Mr. Tang's girlfriend."

The message was confirmed.

All eyes were focused on Xu Qing.

There were gasps and excited discussions all around.

"Oh, Qingqing is such a lucky child!"

"I just heard Qingqing say that and I couldn't believe it, but I didn't expect it to be true!"

"To invest over 1 million in a film and television base, how rich must one be!"

...

Han Yajing held her daughter's hand tightly, her excitement evident in words.

Xu Qing, who was the center of attention, twisted her little butt and was very happy.

Not bad, not bad! Xiaoxue is a reliable person. She didn't sabotage at the critical moment!
I'll give her some positive roles in the novel later!
Shen Yuyan sat quietly in the corner, listening to the discussions of the crowd, his eyes full of confusion.

After waiting for a while, he finally couldn't help but ask, "Brother Wu, what do you mean by the more than 1 million investment you just mentioned?"

Wu Wenhao said seriously, "Last month, Mr. Tang spent 1.16 million yuan to acquire 80% of the equity of the first phase of the Yannan Short Drama Film and Television Base project from our group. I was fortunate to be involved in this matter, so I got to know Mr. Tang and Ms. Lin."

Hearing this, Lin Muxue glanced at Shen Yuyan, nodded calmly and said, "Director Tang is very optimistic about the short drama business. This cooperation can be said to be a win-win situation."

Wu Wenhao quickly agreed: "Haha, Ms. Lin is right!"

Shen Yuyan's brain seemed to be hit hard, and the hand holding the teacup suddenly exerted force.

It turns out that the reason why Lin Muxue was valued by Handing Group was because of her identity as Tang Song's assistant.

Of course, these are not important.

What concerned her most was the unparalleled courage and determination shown by Tang Song in this action.

When Xu Qing was invited by Guo Liyuan to join Fanfusuzi Culture Media, she learned about the short drama market in detail, especially the local situation in Yan Province.

I am no stranger to the Yannan Short Drama Film and Television Base.

This is a project jointly developed by Handing Group and Yan Province Cultural Tourism Investment Group, with a strong official background and political factors.

It is one of the important measures for the local area to create "Yancheng Cultural Tourism".

After it is put into use in the future, it will become a gathering place for short drama business in the entire Yan Province and surrounding areas.

1.16 million yuan, film and television base, ordinary people, Tang and Song...

These key words lingered in Shen Yuyan's mind, making her brain confused.

She made all of this happen herself.

At that time, Youjie Housekeeping rejected Tang Song's investment. In order not to destroy Qingqing's friendship, she introduced Fanfusuzi Culture Media to Tang Song.

With this film and television base, Fanfusuzi Culture Media will definitely take off faster.

There is a great possibility that it will become the leading short drama production company in China in the future.

Guo Liyuan, an old classmate, will be able to rise to the top in one step, make a class leap, and get in touch with the circle she has always dreamed of.

If he had invested in Youjie Housekeeping, what would he be like now?
...

Liu Xuan suddenly stood up and asked, "Qingqing, your boyfriend is coming over to have dinner with us later, right?"

Lin Muxue, who was calmly drinking tea, suddenly pressed her legs together, her bladder contracted, and a trace of panic flashed across her face.

Tang Song is coming here to meet Xu Qing’s parents?
If he knew I was here, wouldn't he be angry?

"Yes, we're on the way." Xu Qing licked her dry lips, sat up straight, and tried to make herself look more dignified.

Liu Xuan said nervously, "Wenhao, go ask the waiter to order some dishes and get a few bottles of good wine."

"Well, okay." Wu Wenhao quickly stood up and followed her out.

Han Yajing urged in a low voice: "Qingqing, call Tang Song quickly and ask where he is, and then go pick him up."

"Got it." Xu Qing responded, picked up the phone and dialed.

He stood up and walked to a quiet corner of the box, and chatted with Tang Song in a low voice.

Xu Qing said to everyone, "Tang Song will be here soon. I'll go downstairs to pick him up."

The situation here is rather complicated now, with both Wu Wenhao and Lin Muxue involved.

She had to tell Tang Song in advance to avoid an awkward situation.

"Go, go!" Han Yajing waved her hand quickly, with an impatient expression on her face.

After this series of incidents, her expectations for her daughter's mysterious wealthy boyfriend have reached their peak.

I just don’t know whether the photos Qingqing posted before were retouched.

If she really looks like that, then her daughter would be truly lucky!

Watching Xu Qing's figure disappear at the door.

Lin Muxue's heart was beating fast and she wanted to say goodbye, but she was hesitant.

After all, Tang Song will definitely know that I have been here later.

God bless you, Xiaoxue really doesn’t want to cause him any trouble.

Glancing at Shen Yuyan who was sitting next to him, he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.

She was sure that Shen Yuyan definitely knew that Tang Song was coming, but she just didn't tell her.

This woman is really cunning! She will definitely not be easy to get along with in the future.

As if sensing her gaze, Shen Yuyan suddenly turned his head and looked over.

Shen Yuyan looked at him with a complicated look: "Xiaoxue, aren't you a senior assistant of the Trust Committee? How did you become Tang Song's assistant?"

Lin Muxue raised her eyebrows and smiled faintly, "Director Tang admires me very much, so he transferred me to his side to serve as his personal assistant. Currently, I am responsible for handling and coordinating many of his asset businesses, including the Lanfeng International Hotel and the Film and Television Base projects."

Looking at each other, Lin Muxue did not hide her boasting and pride at all, and even lifted her legs. Shen Yuyan clenched his hands and said with difficulty: "So that's how it is..."

It turns out that Lin Muxue's confidence comes from Tang Song.

And from her words, it can be analyzed that Tang Song has strong control over that trust company.

You know, Kate Trust is behind Juqing Huijin.

The deeper you get into it, the more you can feel the profound heritage of the Tang and Song dynasties.

"Yeah." Lin Muxue looked at her with a smile, and suddenly said: "By the way, Yuyan, I heard from my colleagues at Juqing Huijin that Director Tang had previously commissioned them to research information on Youjie Housekeeping and seemed to want to invest. I'm curious why they canceled it later?"

Shen Yuyan felt a pain in his chest, as if he had been stabbed with a knife.

His face looked somewhat embarrassed, and he was speechless for a moment.

"Xiaoxue, Yanyan, have some tea."

After being flattered by everyone, Han Yajing came over contentedly and enthusiastically poured a cup of tea for the two of them.

"Thank you, Auntie." Lin Muxue thanked her sweetly, and said gracefully and naturally: "I just noticed that you have such good skin, Auntie, how do you usually maintain it?"

Han Yajing's heart melted when she was complimented by Lin Muxue. "Oh, I don't really do any skin care. I just use some ordinary skin care products."

"Then I have to say that Auntie is really talented." Lin Muxue opened her bag, took out a card from it and handed it over, "This is a diamond membership card of Isa Beauty Salon. You can have 4 free beauty spas every month. I'm giving it to Qingqing. Ask her to take you there to take good care of yourself later."

"That won't work. We can't accept that."

Liu Xuan on the other side smiled and said, "Aunt Han, Yisha Beauty is a very famous high-end beauty salon chain in Yancheng. My mother and I are both members there. This diamond membership card requires a one-time recharge of 10 to apply for."

"So expensive?!" Han Yajing's heart skipped a beat.

Lin Muxue directly put the card in her hand and said, "Don't refuse. The boss of Yisha Beauty is my friend. I didn't spend a penny on this card. I originally wanted to give it to Qingqing."

As she spoke, Lin Muxue glanced at Shen Yuyan inconspicuously, feeling a little proud.

If you set a trap for me, I will give you some eye drops.

Hearing that it was free, Han Yajing finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Well... OK, then I'll accept it for Qingqing, and ask her to thank you later."

At this moment, the door of the box was suddenly pushed open.

Wu Wenhao walked in, accompanied by several middle-aged men in suits and ties, looking like a leader.

Shen Yuyan quickly stood up and took the initiative to greet them: "Mr. Zhao, Mr. Li..."

These people were the senior executives of Handing Group that Lin Muxue had just met in the banquet hall downstairs.

"Hello, Ms. Lin, Mr. Shen." "Hello, Ms. Lin."

Lin Muxue stood up with a smile and nodded slightly.

Upon seeing this, everyone stood up and looked at the group of people who walked in in surprise.

Wu Wenhao introduced with a smile: "Xuanxuan, this is Mr. Zhao, whom I have told you many times, our group's vice president in charge of business operations."

"Hello, Mr. Zhao!" Liu Xuan quickly bent down to greet him.

Zhao Mingwen nodded slightly and said in a gentle tone: "This is the bride-to-be, right? Haha, Wenhao has a good eye! On behalf of the company, I wish you a happy wedding and a happy life in advance."

"Thank you, leader!" "Thank you for the leader's blessing."

After a few greetings, everyone.

Zhao Mingwen and others had no intention of leaving and started chatting directly.

The box was lively and harmonious.

Shen Yuyan looked at this scene and understood instantly.

It must be Wu Wenhao who revealed the news of Tang Song's coming to Mr. Zhao, so he came here on his own initiative.

From this we can also see how important Tang and Song are in each other's minds.

While she was deep in thought, the door of the box was pushed open again.

Zhao Mingwen and others quickly stopped talking, and everyone looked towards the door.

The first person to walk in was Xu Qing. Although she tried hard to remain calm, her erratic steps and upturned mouth corners showed that she was very happy.

Behind her was a tall and slender figure wearing a well-tailored casual suit.

The eyebrows are deep and the bridge of the nose is high.

The light in the box shone on his profile, outlining his well-defined jawline, making him look even more handsome.

There was a faint smile on the corner of his lips, which made him look friendly and revealed a calmness and confidence that was hard to ignore.

Shen Yuyan raised his head, his eyes were a little dazed, and his heartbeat began to speed up unconsciously.

She subconsciously took half a step forward, as if she wanted to walk towards him.

But in the end I managed to hold it back.

It was a feeling she had never experienced before, but she knew exactly why.

The charm emanating from Tang Song was like a magnet, attracting her all the time.

Immediately afterwards, the sound of "thump thump thump" footsteps was heard.

Zhao Mingwen and others took a few quick steps and greeted them enthusiastically.

"Hello, Mr. Tang." Zhao Mingwen extended his hand first with a sincere smile on his face.

A hint of surprise flashed across Tang Song's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and calmly shook Zhao Mingwen's hand, "Hello, Mr. Zhao."

Zhao Mingwen laughed and said cheerfully, "I heard from Wenhao that Mr. Tang was coming here, so we came over to say hello. I hope we won't disturb you."

"Mr. Zhao, you are so polite. I am very happy to meet you all here."

...

Lin Muxue held her handbag in her hand, walked gracefully to him, and said softly, "Director Tang."

"Xiaoxue." Tang Song smiled and nodded slightly.

This was the first time he saw Lin Muxue wearing an evening gown, and she really looked like a socialite.

Looking at Tang Song standing there, surrounded by stars and with outstanding temperament.

Cui Xueping took a breath and said in a trembling voice: "This... Is this Qingqing's boyfriend? This..."

For a moment, she didn't know what adjective to use.

"Qingqing she..." Liu Xuan bit her lip, her eyes filled with envy and shock.

"He is Tang Song, I've seen his photo!" Han Yajing was so excited that she almost sat down and quickly adjusted her clothes and hairstyle.

The real person is much more outstanding than in the photo.

Especially his temperament and aura, which are simply invincible!
Looking at the expressions of the old sisters around her, Han Yajing felt inexplicably excited.

If Qingqing takes him back to her hometown in the future, she will kill anyone who stands in her way!

My daughter is born with a good destiny!

Soon, Tang Song walked over here holding Xu Qing's hand.

Xu Qing said shyly: "This is my mother."

Tang Song said humbly and sincerely, "Hello, Auntie. I am Qingqing's boyfriend Tang Song."

"Hello, hello. I finally see you in person!" Han Yajing's eyes sparkled, as if she was looking at some rare treasure. "Qingqing has such good taste! I like you just the way you look at me!"

"Auntie, you are too kind."

The two chatted lively for a while, and the atmosphere in the box was relaxed and pleasant.

Zhao Mingwen smiled and walked forward and said, "Mr. Tang, it's getting late, we won't bother you any more."

Tang Song nodded, "Everyone, take care. We can talk in detail some other time if we have a chance."

"Of course, of course. We'll take our leave now."

Lin Muxue stood aside and said at the right time: "Director Tang, let me see Mr. Zhao off for you. I came here this time at Mr. Zhao's invitation to attend the launch dinner of Han Ding Group's new property downstairs. If you need anything, please let me know at any time."

"Well, I'll trouble you then."

Immediately afterwards, Lin Muxue accompanied Zhao Mingwen and others and walked out.

As we walked, we chatted with them, chuckling.

His tone was calm and his manners were elegant, showing excellent personal qualities.

...

Shen Yuyan, who was standing aside, watched all this silently with extremely complicated feelings.

No one paid much attention to her from beginning to end.

Even though Tang Song saw her just now, he just nodded at her calmly and then looked away.

She seemed dispensable and insignificant.

This feeling made Shen Yuyan extremely painful and deeply hurt her heart.

Looking at Lin Muxue's back as she disappeared at the door, he then looked at Tang Song who was standing not far away.

A thought came to her mind again.

Lin Muxue can do it, why can't I?
How am I worse than her?
As an intelligent person, Shen Yuyan is very clear about his strengths and weaknesses.

She is very confident in herself, whether in terms of her figure, appearance, personal qualities or skills.

What is most lacking is opportunities and resources.

This is due to her background and experience.

If she could be at Lin Muxue's level, she could stand on a higher platform and have access to higher-end resources and connections.

The opportunities to achieve financial freedom and move up in social class are much greater than joining Youjie Housekeeping.

Even if I start a business again in the future, it will be much easier than it is now.

This is a shortcut, a tempting shortcut.

The only problem is…

After taking this shortcut, she will most likely be tempted to take an even shorter shortcut.

That is to become a woman of Tang and Song dynasties.

Although there were already many women in Tang Song, if she really did this, it would mean that she was also "stealing men" from her best friend.

Even if Qingqing doesn't care much now, what about in the future? Will it affect their friendship?
He glanced at Xu Qing's cute and adorable figure and recalled the scenes between them starting from junior high school.

Shen Yuyan lowered his head, his vision a little blurry.
