Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
“This is perfect!” The girl raised her camera excitedly and in her lens were Xi
Wan and Su Xun.
At this moment, the two of them were standing at the entrance of the auditorium under the blue flower pillar. Su Xun had one hand on Xi Wan’s waist and his eyes were looking affectionately at her bright smile.
Xi Wan looked up when she sensed Su Xun’s gaze, and met his gaze. At this moment, the girl pressed the shutter button of the camera.
“There’s a small bid in the afternoon. Are you interested?” After Xi Wan bid farewell to the girl, she asked Su Xun, “It’s organized by Mrs. Tang. The bidders are all individual projects.”
Su Xun thought seriously about today’s schedule. In the end, he could only shake his head regretfully and reject her invitation. “I’m sorry, I really can’t squeeze out any time today. Call me when the bidding is over and I’ll pick you up.”
“Okay, send me there then.” Xi Wan nodded.
The bidding for the investment meeting was at two in the afternoon. Su Xun brought Xi Wan to lunch first before sending her to the venue of the investment meeting.
The venue of the investment meeting was Mrs. Tang’s hotel.
Mrs. Tang asked someone to vacate a large conference hall and the lounge next to the conference hall. The walls of these two rooms were broken through and temporarily converted into a large area that could accommodate many people.
When Xi Wan arrived, there were already many people gathered inside.
“Miss Xi!” The moment Mrs. Tang saw Xi Wan, she deliberately raised her voice to greet her, “You’re here!”
Because of Mrs. Tang’s voice, everyone in the room looked over and many people stood up.
Xi Wan was like a superstar. Under such a situation where she was the center of attention, the aura around her instantly rose.
“…” Xi Wan did not know what to say and could only respond with a silent smile.
When the system saw this, it said regretfully: [If you hadn’t chosen to quit the entertainment industry back then, you would have become a big star that everyone looked forward to.]
Mrs. Tang hurried over to Xi Wan’s side and held her arm affectionately. She whispered into her ear, “I’m really sorry, Mrs. Su. I thought that everyone would use their own identities on such occasions, so I called you by your name directly.”
Xi Wan immediately understood what she meant and nodded silently at her.
“I’m Fang Yi.” Mrs. Tang smiled sheepishly and said, “I’m Fang Yi. I’ve known you for so long, but I’ve never seriously introduced myself to you. I’m really sorry.”
“It’s fine.” Xi Wan nodded.
Xi Wan could understand that she was just like Mrs. Tang and Fang Yi in social events. She was the wife of Su Xun, the future mistress of the Su family, and the Mrs. Su who socialized with the wives of the wealthy families for her husband, Su Xun. She did not have many opportunities to socialize with her original identity.
Today was one of the few occasions where these ladies could use their identities to socialize.
Fang Yi also knew that if she continued to call herself Mrs. Tang in this investment event that she was in charge of, people might think that she was still the incompetent person who used her identity as the mistress to borrow her husband’s reputation and the name of investment to cause trouble.
“Hello, Miss Fang.” Xi Wan changed the way she addressed Mrs. Tang.
Fang Yi raised her eyebrows in delight with a smile blossoming on her face like a flower. Xi Wan could feel how happy she was.
The person standing closest to the door could see Xi Wan’s face clearly. Even if there was no acquaintance around her, the people who recognized Xi Wan would still look at someone else who recognized her, in the hope of trying someone who agreed with them.
Xi Wan’s appearance brought shock and disbelief to most people present.
“Isn’t this Xi Wan?”
“Why is she here?”
“I can’t believe that Xi Wan would appear at such a small investment meeting!”
People were chatting in hushed voices in places where Xi Wan couldn’t see. Everyone was surprised by her arrival..
