As soon as they arrived at the door, a manager in charge of the guests walked towards them with a professional smile. He asked politely, "Miss, you are —"
"I'm Zhang Yuan's friend." Bai Yujiao explained. "My name is Bai Yujiao."
"Oh, it's Miss Bai. Please come in. "The manager smiled and bowed to send them into the elevator.
There was no strict membership system in this kind of clubhouse. Usually, people could register their faces or names. Of course, for such an important party like tonight. Even if the invited guests wanted to bring their friends or the opposite sex, they would inform the organizer in advance. Otherwise, they would be in trouble. Making a blunder.
After entering the elevator, Bai Yujiao felt claustrophobia for the first time in her life. She felt that her breathing was not smooth and was eager to leave the enclosed elevator.
"What's wrong?" She heard Xiao Zheng's concerned voice. His voice was gentle, and his face was warm.
"Nothing." Bai Yujiao shook her head gently and took a deep breath. "Maybe I haven't eaten all day. I'm a little hungry."
Xiao Zheng didn't ask much and said, "I'll get you something to eat later. Otherwise, you'll get drunk if you drink on an empty stomach. "
"Okay." Bai Yujiao nodded. "Thank you."
Bai Yujiao definitely didn't have this kind of politeness. But since she was about to arrive at this party, she had to suppress all her previous temperament. Whether it was to save face for the other party or to save some dignity for herself.
Ding dong.
The elevator door opened and Xiao Zheng and Bai Yujiao walked out side by side. They passed through the corridor and arrived at the party.
Although it was called a party, it was actually a birthday dinner. There was food, drinks, beautiful women, and handsome men. There was also a live band. If you were willing to go on stage and sing, there would definitely be people supporting you.
Of course, such a birthday party wouldn't have hot and cold dishes for you to choose. It was a grand occasion, and the food was exquisite and exquisite. In such a place, if you wanted to eat a plate of green pepper and shredded pork with rice, it would be a slap in the face of the banquet host.
Bai Yujiao was shocked by the extravagant atmosphere of the party as soon as she entered the party. It could be said to be a feast and the guests were all dressed up. In comparison, Bai Yujiao had carefully chosen this evening gown. Compared to the other women present, this evening gown was far inferior.
Of course, Bai Yujiao didn't come here to attract attention. He had only met Zhang Yuan once. As for what happened after that, she did not consider it at all.
"There are quite a lot of people." Xiao Zheng glanced around. There were about fifty to sixty of them. Half of them were men and half were women, and they chatted in groups of three to five. Most of them were high-end topics that Bai Yujiao could not understand. Of course, she wasn't interested in listening.
Bai Yujiao also glanced around and found that Zhang Yuan wasn't there. He simply picked a quiet corner and planned to rest for a while.
Not eating was a small matter, but the pair of high heels had really tortured her. His shoes were new, and they were a little tight. Bai Yujiao felt a burst of heat on her heel. She must have rubbed it.
"Let me get you something to eat," Xiao Zheng volunteered.
She was a girl, after all. She had just arrived and she was already looking for food. It was unsightly and damaging to one's image. Xiao Zheng didn't care about this. After all, he was here to accompany Bai Yujiao. In addition, Bai Yujiao's mood was a little low. Eating some desserts might be able to alleviate it.
"Thank you." Bai Yujiao nodded gently. "I don't need too much. Just a little will do."
Xiao Zheng smiled and said, "This is already the second time you've said thank you to me tonight." After a pause, he added. After a pause, he added, "If you continue to treat me like an outsider, I'll leave."
Bai Yujiao was slightly startled. She immediately nodded and said, "I won't say anymore."
Xiao Zheng smiled and walked toward the long table.
…
In a VIP room in Li Jing Residence. Several men and women were sitting on the sofa, drinking and chatting. Shang Yao was there.
She wore a light blue dress tonight, and a crystal necklace hung around her slender neck. Noble and elegant. After taking off her previous straw bag appearance, her temperament was immediately revealed. It was very eye-catching.
At this moment, she was holding a glass of champagne and gently swirling the liquid in the glass. Her eyes swept toward Linghu Zhu. The host of tonight's party: "I remember you sent him an invitation a few days ago?"
"Who said I didn't." Linghu Zhu lit a cigarette and shrugged helplessly. "But our Boss Xiao didn't give me any face. He said he wouldn't come. "
Shang Yao shook her head and said, "It's not your fault. He just doesn't want to see me. "
"Since he hates you so much, why do you always stick to him?" Linghu Zhu took a drag of his cigarette and said with a faint smile, "You still don't admit that you like him?" "You still don't admit that you like him?"
Shang Yao shook her head and said with pursed lips, "That's not the case." "I just took advantage of him a lot. Also, I think very highly of him. I think very highly of him. I believe that in the near future, he will become the leader of our group. "
"So, it is necessary to have a good relationship with a dragon among men like him," Shang Yao explained reasonably.
Linghu Zhu smiled and looked back at Zhang Yuan, who maintained a subtle smile on his face and was quietly listening to their conversation.
There were five people in the room. He was the quietest and the one who initiated the birthday party. Of course, it was not that Linghu Zhu did not have the money for the birthday party. It was Zhang Yuan who took it on.
Why?
To please Linghu Zhu.
Zhang Yuan had received reliable information that Linghu Zhu had nearly thirty billion in cash when he moved to Yan Jin. He had already contacted all the girls, including Shang Yao. His goal was to do something big and make a name for himself in Yan Jin.
In terms of status, Zhang Yuan was at least one level lower than Linghu Zhu and Shang Yao. But the good thing was that Zhang Yuan and Linghu Zhu were high school classmates. Without this relationship, Zhang Yuan would not have the opportunity to spend money.
Spending one million on a party might result in a return of hundreds of millions or even hundreds of millions. Even an idiot would not refuse. Moreover, money was not Zhang Yuan's first goal. His ultimate goal was to break into the circle of these nouveau riches and successfully squeeze into the A-list.
"Old classmate," Linghu Zhu said with a smile. "I'm a little embarrassed to have made you bleed this time. When you get back, you must come to the northeast and let me do my duty as a host. "
"Look at what you're saying." Zhang Yuan smiled. "You came all the way to Beijing. No matter what, I had to put on the airs of a protagonist. Otherwise, I don't know how our old classmates will ridicule me. "
Ridicule from high school?
Zhang Yuan stopped contacting his high school classmates after he went to university. The others took the initiative. Linghu Zhu, on the other hand, was passive. It was difficult for him to integrate into the same circle. It was mutual.
Linghu Zhu didn't stand on ceremony. He just nodded with a smile and clinked glasses with him.
Shang Yao, on the other hand, teased, "Young Master Zhang. Now that you mention it, I don't think I should treat you. That's a little unreasonable. "
Zhang Yuan hurriedly explained, "Miss Shang, you're being too serious. I don't mean anything else … "
