C48 (2/2)

”Sister-in-law, you think about it again. Are you sure you don't want to go?” ”It's very fun.” Hee Shengsheng wrapped her arm tightly around Chen Jiajia's arm.

”I'm not going anymore. They're all your friends. I'm going, but I don't know anyone.” Chen Jiajia explained. Hee Shengsheng nodded her head, looking a little disappointed.

”If you don't want to go, then go.” Why did he know what Chen Jiajia was worried about and not insist.

The day before the banquet, Chen Jiajia received a call from her boss before she got off work. ”Jiajia, I have a client at the XX Hotel who wants to negotiate a very important business deal tomorrow, but I really can't get away from it.

Because that was not a big matter in itself, why did he have to attend the banquet, and since he did not have anything to do during the weekend, Chen Jiajia agreed. However, it was unknown that Su Rui, who was on the other side, had also received the same piece of news.

No one knew that a huge scheme was currently enveloping everyone.

On the day of the banquet, Chen Jiajia carefully tied her tie. After kissing Chen Jiajia, she said: ”Rest well at home, I'll be back tonight.”

Chen Jiajia shook her head, and laughed: ”I might not be able to rest, I still have to help the boss with a case later.”

”Then I'll drive you there.” What do you mean?

”No need, hurry up and help uncle prepare.” Chen Jiajia looked at her watch and realized that it was getting late, and immediately urged him on to not delay matters any further.

Half an hour later, he received a call from an unknown number. The voice from the phone had been processed: ”Chen Jiajia is now in our hands. If you want to save him, then do as we say and come to the XX Hotel to negotiate!” With that, she hung up.

However, Chen Jiajia did not know why she did not pick up the phone. Instead, she felt even more anxious, and immediately turned towards the direction of the hotel.

And at this time, Chen Jiajia arrived at the hotel as promised, but when she asked the waiter for the location, Chen Jiajia noticed that something was amiss. There was a large bouquet of red roses and expensive red wine on the table. It didn't seem like a business conversation at all.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Chen Jiajia wanted to turn her head and see who it was that appointed her, but she realized that the familiar figure who was walking towards her was actually Su Rui!

”Senior, why is it you?” Chen Jiajia asked in shock. She did not know how to react to the situation.

Su Rui was also shocked, ”I also want to ask, it was clearly a client who told me that they were here to discuss business today, why would they …” As he was speaking, Su Rui seemed to have recovered from his shock, and his face changed greatly.

”Not good! Jiajia, we might have been set up. Let's leave quickly!” Su Rui said in a hurry, and prepared to bring Chen Jiajia out of the place.

”Just what is going on …” Chen Jiajia was still confused.

Just as the two were in a fluster, they couldn't help but heave a sigh of relief when they saw that Chen Jiajia was fine and had rushed over quickly because they were worried about her safety.

But when he saw the person next to him, his pupils shrank. Su Rui was pulling Chen Jiajia's hand and there was a bunch of fiery red roses in front of the two of them …

What do you mean by suddenly becoming ice-cold? Chen Jiajia tricked him … Jealousy and anger made him almost lose her mind. He walked over expressionlessly.

”What do you mean, why are you here?” Didn't you go to the party? ” Chen Jiajia asked puzzledly as she saw the reason behind the sudden rush in her direction. She had always felt that everything that happened today was unusually coincidental.

The corners of his mouth curled up into a mocking smile: ”Why didn't I come at the right time?”
