Chapter 190 - Zhang Jing was Quite Famous (1/2)
When Li Mu Chen went back to the table, her mother, Zhao Wei pulled at her hand and frowned. ”Where have you been?”
Li Mu Chen glanced at the table across the table and saw that Li Qin Yao was leaning her head on her boyfriend's shoulder while she conversed with the elder man.
”Nowhere. I went to get some air, but I ran into Li Qin Yao and her boyfriend,” Li Mu Chen said. She turned to her mother with an aggrieved expression and continued, ”I tried to start a conversation with them but guess how they treated me?” She sneered before retelling her encounter with her cousin earlier.
Of course, Li Mu Chen managed to make her cousin looked bad and she did not mention Li Qin Yao's unwillingness to help her transfer to B City. Her mother would scold her if she knew that she went to ask for her cousin's help.
”Just leave them be,” Zhao Wei said after she heard her daughter's side of the story. ”You should not lower your standard to them. Next time, don't go and find your cousin without reason. You should just wait. I will convince your brother and grandfather to let you join the project in B City.”
Li Mu Chen bit at her lower lips. She could not let her mother know that she had tried to convince her cousin into letting her participate in that big project and unfortunately ruined that chance.
”Anyway,” Zhao Wei continued. ”I wanted to introduce you to Chairman Gao's son, Gao Sheng. You should remember him. You went to the same high school as him.”
Li Mu Chen could only nod obediently at her mother's request. She looked around and noticed that her brother was no longer sitting around at the table. ”Mom, where's big brother?”
Zhao Wei glanced at the table at the center. ”He went with your grandfather to greet a few of their business partner.”
After a while, it was time for the bride and groom to toast with the guests.
Li Ming Han and his wife, Bai Qing Qing, walked from table to table with a videographer following behind them to record their every move.
The newlyweds walked over to Li Qin Yao's table and greeted Li Chun and her husband. Then, Li Ming Han turned to Li Qin Yao and she then introduced the couple to Zhang Yu Han and his family members.
Li Ming Han had long known that his grandfather had invited his cousin's business partner to attend his wedding banquet. However, as he looked at the way his cousin manner with Director Zhang, Li Ming Han could not help but widen his eyes in surprise.
”Cousin Sister,” Li Ming Han lowered his voice as he talked. ”You and Director Zhang…”
”Hmm… we're seeing each other.”
Li Ming Han continued to stare at his cousin with his eyes wide. A thought crossed his mind and Li Ming Han then glanced at Zhang Yu Han. ”Then, Chef Qin's specialty desserts last time… they were sent to you by Director Zhang?”
It was not hard for him to connect the two dots. Chef Qin was working with The Orchid, a hotel belonged to Zhang Group Worldwide. Because of Zhang Yu Han's identity, it would not be hard for him to ask Chef Qin to prepare the cakes for his girlfriend and have those desserts as packed as takeaways!
Li Ming Han suddenly turned to Zhang Yu Han with a wide smile on his face. ”Cousin-in-law. I really liked those desserts by Chef Qin.”
Zhang Yu Ying, who was in the middle of drinking suddenly choked on her drinks. She stared at Li Ming Han in disbelief as the man continued to sing some praise to her brother while mentioning Chef Qin's specialties. How can someone be as shameless as him?
