Lu Manman tightened her grip on her cell phone. She really felt like smashing it.
She felt as if her ears had been sullied.
She pursed her lips and calmed herself down. “I’m just giving it a try. If it’s too tiring, I’ll reconsider. Yun, I have a meeting later, so I can’t talk now. Let’s talk later.”
“Manman,” Wen Yun called out to her urgently. “Will you be attending the business dinner tonight? The Lu Firm will surely be invited.”
“Business dinner?” Lu Manman was stunned for a moment before replying, “I don’t know. Let’s see what my dad wants.”
“If you want to take part, let me know in advance. I’ll come to get you.”
“Yun, even if I want to attend, we should avoid arousing suspicion for the time being. It’s better if we attend it separately.”
“Do you care what the media thinks?” Wen Yun seemed a little disappointed. “I only care about you. It’s none of my business what others say. I don’t want to care.”
“I don’t want to care too, but we have to. Otherwise, it would look bad on both of us if we appear together in public.” Lu Manman really did not want to talk to him anymore. “Alright, Yun. I have a meeting. Bye.”
With that, she hung up.
She looked at the words: call ended. Her lips turned cold.
Wen Yun, how does it feel to be played like a fool?!
The good show was coming soon!
But Lu Manman narrowed her eyes at the so-called business dinner…
She picked up her phone and made a call.
The call went through very quickly. “Dad, is there a business meeting tonight?”
“What’s wrong? It’s a business meeting that happens once every half a year. The organizer this time is the Immemorial Business Group, and we’re invited.”
“I want to participate.”
“Didn’t you say that you didn’t like to attend banquets like this?” Lu Zishan was a little shocked.
“It’s different now. I should get to know more people. Otherwise, how am I going to start my career in the market?”
“I’m impressed by your sudden change in attitude. Since you want to go, I will take your mom with me at seven-thirty in the evening. You can come with me then.”
“Thank you, Dad. I’ll be there on time. Bye.”
“Bye.”
After hanging up, Lu Manman was no longer in the mood to look at the business indicators.
She turned her chair around and stood up. She looked out the full-length window at the steady flow of people and took a deep breath.
There was no rush. She could take her time with her work!
Tonight, not only would she be entering the Lu Firm, but she would also be making her way into the business industry!
…
At seven-thirty in the evening.
Lu Manman put on a fitting black gown and elegant makeup. She followed Lu Zishan and He Xiuwen into the banquet.
The decorations in the living room and the bustling crowds made the place grand and luxurious.
Lu Manman had always been by Lu Zishan’s side.
She was here tonight to get to know more about the business industry! Working in the marketplace would only drag her down a dead end. Raising her head and splitting open the sky was the way to widen her scope of development.
There were a lot of people coming and going.
Lu Manman smiled beautifully as she toasted each of them gracefully.
She suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Lu Manman turned to see Mo Yuanxiu, who was holding a cocktail. His dark gray suit and silver tie complemented his charming facial features. He had a meaningful expression on his face as he looked at her, and the smile on his face was increasingly dazzling and intimidating.
Beside Mo Yuanxiu was his father, Mo Changkun. As one of the four families, it was only right that the two families greeted each other.
However, Mo Yuanxiu’s never-ending proposal advertisement had made everyone in Wen City aware of his craziness. Now that the two families were meeting, everyone in the living room kept turning in their direction as if they were waiting for something to happen…
What could happen?!
Lu Manman smiled.
The moment she smiled, Mo Yuanxiu’s eyes deepened.
