Shang Yao watched helplessly as the two of them, who had once been at loggerheads with each other, became so affectionate. Her mind went blank.
What was going on?
Since when did Lin Laoyao treat Xiao Zheng so well?
Moreover, Lin Huayin was not here.
Why did he give Xiao Zheng so much face?
Not only her, but everyone else could not figure it out. They could not figure it out.
Linghu Zhu lowered his voice as much as possible and said in a tone that only Shang Yao could hear, "I heard that Boss Lin hates Xiao Zheng to the core." "Is there a mistake in my information, or are they acting?"
"Acting?" Shang Yao frowned slightly and said in confusion. "You're talking about acting right now. Or before? "
If they were acting before, they were acting for the whole world to see.
What about acting now? Who were they acting for?
Lin Huayin?
The political force that supported Xiao Zheng's appearance on the news broadcast?
Everything was possible.
But in the eyes of Shang Yao and everyone else present. Lin Chaotian was not such a spineless person. Nor was he a fence-sitter. He would turn the rudder whenever the wind blew.
If it was for Lin Huayin, why would he wait until today?
What had he been doing earlier?
Everything seemed possible, but in fact, none of it was logical, in line with Lin Chaotian's identity and style of doing things.
So — why was that?
Did the two of them secretly reconcile?
Shang Yao shook her head gently and was extremely puzzled. Linghu Zhu did not delve into it. He was just a bystander. He came here today to explore the situation and understand the situation. He did not intend to plunge into it. The three northeastern provinces were big enough. If Linghu Zhu could manage his family's business well, he would not disappoint the public. There was no need to get involved in the struggle in the capital.
Seeing that the two of them were on good terms, Lin Chaotian's attitude toward Xiao Zheng also changed sharply. Chang Yishan's eyes gradually turned cold as he glared at him. He was indescribably angry.
Lin Chaotian, are you playing with me?
You are nominally my guide. Suppressing Xiao Zheng in name. But in the end, at the critical moment, you abandoned me and flirted with Xiao Zheng?
In an instant, Chang Yishan's heart was filled with nameless rage. He looked like he was about to leave in a huff.
But he didn't do that. He couldn't do that either.
This was a summit gathering. Everyone present was a young leader from their respective fields. There would come a day when the older generation would retire to the second line. The future world was theirs. If he were to leave today, then he would really offend all these young geniuses. In terms of limelight and bearing, he lost to Xiao Zheng!
He forcefully suppressed the anger in his heart. He forced a smile on his face.
After returning to China, Chang Yishan's self-esteem was stabbed time and time again. The strong self-confidence and mental defense that Wall Street had built up over the past decade were collapsing and collapsing step by step. Otherwise, why would he leak the photos and use such a despicable method to attack Xiao Zheng?
In the end, his journey had been too smooth, too smooth. No one could shake his Taoist Heart. And no one could tear off his mask.
So he was proud, reserved, and gentlemanly.
But today, the pride and self-esteem that he had built up for so many years was crushed by Lin Chaotian!
It wasn't that Lin Chaotian's attack was fierce, but Chang Yishan couldn't accept suddenly falling from a high place.
It was too painful.
"Everyone, sit down. Let's eat and talk. "Lin Chaotian Smiled and invited everyone to sit.
The seats were not deliberately arranged, but the chairman was definitely Lin Chaotian. Because Xiao Zheng was the last to greet Lin Chaotian, he was sitting very close to him. So he simply sat down on the first seat on the left. Following closely behind was Shang Yao, then Linghu Zhu.
It didn't seem to be particular, but one could immediately tell which side they were on. Even the battle team.
Linghu Zhu chose Xiao Zheng's side, and not Bai Wushuang and Chang Yishan, who he kept a respectful distance from.
"Little Bai, come and sit." Lin Chaotian waved his hand, motioning for Bai Wushuang to sit on his right.
As for Chang Yishan —
Apart from greeting him at the beginning, Lin Chaotian didn't talk to him at all. It was as if he treated him like air.
Wasn't his situation today the same as Xiao Zheng's back then?
Everyone was toasting each other and eating delicacies, but he sat in the corner like air. No one was interested.
Chang Yishan picked a seat on the edge and sat down. He still had a smile on his face. But anyone could see that Chang Yishan was not in a good mood. He didn't have the slightest appetite.
"Everyone here is a young talent. In ten or twenty years, the world will be yours. "Lin Chaotian slowly raised his cup and smiled. "Don't lose face for your family. Show your skills. Do something big that will make people give you a thumbs up. "
Most of the people here felt gratified to receive Lin Chaotian's praise. They couldn't help but raise their cups, their faces beaming. Only Chang Yishan stiffly drank a cup of wine, not making a sound from start to finish.
On the other hand, Xiao Zheng was chatting with the other talents here. They talked loudly. Coupled with Lin Chaotian's previous praise, the news broadcast was like a strong aphrodisiac. Xiao Zheng successfully became the absolute main character of this family banquet. He was on the same level as Lin Chaotian.
Shang Yao occasionally glanced at Xiao Zheng, then glanced at Chang Yishan who was marginalized. She felt a lot of emotions.
When Chang Yishan first appeared, he was in the limelight, invincible. All the halos shrouded him, and he was known as the leader of the younger generation in the capital. At that time, Shang Yao was still pretending to be stupid, and Xiao Zheng was still struggling. Bai Wushuang was still preparing her graduation thesis.
Now. Xiao Zheng had become the most famous person among the younger generation. Maybe he hadn't accumulated enough, and his foundation wasn't deep enough. But with the current momentum. His future wasn't that bad.
"Boss Xiao. I have something to say to you. "Shang Yao put down her wine cup, smiled, and said in a clear voice.
"Miss Shang, please speak." Xiao Zheng waited with a solemn face.
The young people here also put down their wine cups, and looked at Shang Yao curiously.
"How can there be a perfect law in the world, not letting down Buddha, not letting down you?" Shang Yao had a smile on her face, it seemed to be a compliment, but it was like a soft knife, fiercely stabbing into Chang Yishan's heart. "Boss Xiao, I believe you have done it."
How can there be a perfect law in the world, not letting down Buddha, not letting down you? It was about a monk falling in love with a girl, and the contradiction between Buddhism and love. He couldn't find relief.
Shang Yao used this famous Buddhist poem to praise Xiao Zheng for not only keeping the girl's heart, but also chatting happily with Lin Chaotian. He was a winner in life. But what about the other way around?
Wasn't this like a sharp knife stabbing into Chang Yishan's heart?
Xiao Zheng had everything. What about you?
What do you have?
Lin Huayin treated him like air. Lin Chaotian's attitude towards him also took a sharp turn. It was as if he was teasing and humiliating him.
Even his only brother had almost left him!
So, didn't it seem that Xiao Zheng had already won?
Defeat this Yan Jing prodigy who was always high and mighty and returned to the country with glory?
"Not letting down Buddha, not letting down you?" Xiao Zheng narrowed his eyes and then immediately smiled. "I like this sentence very much."
Shang Yao was determined to help Xiao Zheng slap Chang Yishan in the face!
This sudden attack caused Chang Yishan's expression to change abruptly. It was indescribably embarrassing.
