V4C78 – Yang Mei’s Worries (1/2)
In fact, I really was disinclined to haggle over with them. I don’t know, but me stepping onto the stage caused many people to lose their sleep and appetite.
I took a look at the reporters and guests under the podium. There were so many people there! Thanks to the fact that I was used to being in front of thousands of people because of my previous job as a CEO in my past life, if I had to be in front of so many people otherwise, I would certainly have fainted already!
“Hello, fellow guests! I welcome you to this joint press conference. Many reporters have also arrived from abroad and this made me feel really honored. On behalf of Shuguang, East Asia Motion, Three Rock Entertainment, and New Century Group, I express my sincere gratitude to you!” I had not prepared any speech, instead, I said these words calmly.
My words stunned everyone in the audience! The sense of smell for spicy news was really good when it came to reporters. They loved to bite and decipher words. Now that they saw me represent four companies, they were all surprised and had an inexplicable mood!
Was it a slip of tongue? The reporters all tried to guess. But how could there be such a low-level mistake at such a high-level conference like this? But if it wasn’t a slip of tongue, then the meaning was quite obvious; I had a relationship with all four companies!
Mother Yang in D City was completely stunned. Mother Yang cheered after seeing everything. She was so excited, she almost started to dance in front of the TV! Her son-in-law was just too good, actually the chairman of Shuguang Corporation! Not to say the other identity I might have, just this was enough for her to go mad already! Mother Yang excitedly picked up her phone and dialed her daughter’s number, but Mother Yang didn’t expect her daughter to actually cut off the call.
Mother Yang didn’t understand why Yang Mei wouldn’t answer the phone, but she wasn’t someone who would stay idle. There was no way she wasn’t going to show off before others now that something so big happened! Therefore, she picked up the phone and called her own elder brother.
After this elder brother of her had become the deputy director of the Finance Bureau, he hadn’t contacted Mother Yang again. Mother Yang and Father Yang were ordinary people, while that elder brother was a high official, so he naturally looked down on them! {TL Note: Are there really families like this out there?}
“Hello, who might it be?” Li Xiaowan’s voice passed over the receiver.
If it was in the ordinary times, Mother Yang would certainly hate him, but right now, she felt that her brother was really funny, just like a clown!
“Big brother, I am Little Hong. Do you have any free time recently?” Mother Yang asked.
“No time, I am really busy!” Li Xiaowan replied as he didn’t want to have anything to do with this sister of his.
“Oh. Forget it then. Meimei’s boyfriend had come home two days ago and was going to book a banquet in Harbour Resort and ask all Meimei’s relatives to come, but if you don’t have any free time, then it can’t be helped!” Mother Yang intentionally pretended to be indifferent.
“What? Harbour Hotel?” Li Xiaowan’s brain started to churn rapidly. What was the Harbour Resort? It was the most luxurious resort in D City! Even he, a deputy director, had only gone there twice, that too, on someone else’s treat. With the economic level of his sister’s family, it was impossible for her to arrange anything in the Harbour Resort! Did his niece fish some rich son-in-law?
“Right? When is it? Perhaps, I might have free time on that day. Oh, right, what does Little Mei’s boyfriend does?” Li Xiaowan pretended to ask casually.
