In fact, Ouyang Zi Yan's achievements in the business world were only at the middle level.
Usually, Yan Heyun wouldn't even look at people of this level, let alone be so respectful to them. However, as a member of the upper class, how could he not recognize the princess of the Ouyang family?
Although his position in the business field was not small, compared with the powerful Ouyang family in the capital, he was really a small fry in the presence of a great magician.
Now, he had no choice but to be respectful. However, what surprised him was the man beside Ouyang Zi Yan.
It had been a few months since Mu Qingxiao had kidnapped the bride, but the capital was far from Jinghai City.
Back then, the incident had caused a stir in the upper class of the capital and everyone knew about it. However, only a few people in Jinghai City had received the news.
However, Yan Heyun was clearly not one of them.
Hearing Yan Heyun's words, Ouyang Zi Yan nodded slightly. She was only here to attend this banquet, so there was nothing to be surprised about.
In her opinion, the boss of the Hilton Hotel was an ugly person who liked to cause trouble.
The two of them were a perfect match, and their looks were the envy of others. Mu Qingxiao's presence not only attracted Yan Heyun's attention, but also attracted the attention of many business owners present.
"Do you know the man beside Ouyang Zi Yan? Why haven't I seen him before?"
"When did Ouyang Zi Yan have a man? I've never heard of it. Have you heard of it?"
In an instant, the banquet hall was abuzz with discussions. Mu Qingxiao didn't care at all. Instead, he habitually observed the situation around him. This was a habit he had developed after experiencing various aspects.
Ouyang Zi Yan held Mu Qingxiao's arm, completely ignoring the discussions around her. If it weren't for the development of the Brilliant Group, she wouldn't have attended this banquet and wouldn't have interacted so much with these people.
Although this group of people were the top 100 business tycoons, Ouyang Zi Yan didn't know many of them. Even if she did, she didn't have a deep relationship with them.
She didn't know these people, but they all knew Ouyang Zi Yan.
Even the way they looked at her became heated. Those who attended the banquet were either here to show off or to look for projects to invest in. Everyone present understood this. Ouyang Zi Yan was obviously the latter.
If they could seize this opportunity or climb up some connections, they would be able to soar to the top. If they missed this opportunity, they could only secretly weep. This was the business world. It depended on business experience and personal intuition.
It was very likely that the decision you made today would determine your future achievements. Many people had made the right choice at the right time, and that was how they got to where they were now.
Ouyang Zi Yan's identity alone was enough to move everyone present. Since she had come to the banquet, it was obvious that the opportunity had come. Everyone's mind was racing.
Of course, Mu Qingxiao, who was standing beside Ouyang Zi Yan, also received special attention. Everyone was trying to guess his background and identity.
At this time, many smart tycoons were ready to come over to greet them. These old foxes had been in the business world for decades. They were all smooth and slick.
There weren't many opportunities to meet the princess of the Ouyang family. Naturally, they had to seize this opportunity. It was now or never.
Soon, Ouyang Zi Yan and Mu Qingxiao became the center of attention at the banquet. All the tycoons in the business world gathered around.
"Miss Ouyang, how have you been? You're getting more and more beautiful."
"Miss Ouyang, you came to the banquet in person. Are you looking for a good investment project? Why don't we discuss it together?"
"Miss Ouyang, I wonder who this gentleman beside you is …"
The banquet hall instantly became noisy. Only a middle-aged man drinking red wine in the corner of the banquet hall looked at Mu Qingxiao and Ouyang Zi Yan with a complicated and even angry look.
Feeling this gaze, Mu Qingxiao raised his head. He was slightly stunned. Suddenly, the corners of his mouth curled up into a wicked smile. If he hadn't seen him here, he would have forgotten who he was.
This middle-aged man was Song Jie's father. Who else could it be? He really didn't expect to meet Song Wanfu for the first time at the banquet.
However, Song Wanfu no longer had his beer belly. His cheeks were much thinner and he didn't look as energetic as before. He gave off a decadent feeling.
Mu Qingxiao wasn't interested in flattery. Ouyang Zi Yan could handle this group of people, so he naturally didn't want to stay.
He picked up a glass of red wine from the banquet table and walked straight to Song Wanfu. He smiled innocently.
"Boss Song, how have you been?"
"Hmph, Mr. Mu is as cool as ever."
Back when Song Jie was arrested and sent to prison, Song Jie tried his best to find out the cause and effect. Naturally, he found evidence of his son's crimes and was disheartened.
He usually doted on Song Jie in every possible way and allowed him to do whatever he wanted outside. Now that something like this had happened, it was reasonable.
Perhaps only prison could make Song Jie turn over a new leaf. If he went deeper, it wouldn't be as simple as prison, Song Wanfu thought.
It wasn't that Song Wanfu didn't think of revenge, but he couldn't afford it. Hiring assassins and bribing mercenaries to enter the country was a serious crime.
He knew that his son couldn't have done these things. If he tried to defend himself, it would implicate more people and he wouldn't be able to bear the consequences.
Hearing Song Wanfu's words, Mu Qingxiao smiled. He took a sip of red wine and said, "Thank you. As the saying goes, if you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to be afraid of ghosts knocking on your door. I'm open and honest, so I live naturally."
"You …"
For a moment, Song Wanfu was so angry that he couldn't speak. Of course, he could tell how many thorns were in his words. He was indirectly scolding him for doing many wrong things.
"Eh, why don't I see your son? I've been drinking with him and regretting not meeting him sooner. I wonder how he's doing now?"
Hearing that, Song Wanfu almost spat out a mouthful of blood. His facial muscles twitched violently and even his breathing became rapid.
If he hadn't investigated back then and found out that his son was imprisoned because of him, he might have been deceived by him.
His son was now in prison and had to endure torture every day. Yet, Mu Qingxiao was here tasting wine and even had the time to mock him. This was called 'drinking with a bosom friend and regretting not meeting him sooner'. What nonsense.
"Good, very good!"
"I see. I heard from my wife that your son was arrested. I've been busy and didn't have the chance to visit this old friend of his. Uncle Song, please don't take offense."
Hearing the words' Uncle Song ', Song Wanfu was about to explode in anger.
Holding the wine glass tightly, he looked at Mu Qingxiao with a gloomy face. If he could, he really wanted to cut this brat in front of him into a thousand pieces!
