Ke Runze was 1.8 meters tall, so even when Jiang Yansheng stood on her tiptoes, her line of sight barely reached the man's chin.
She looked up at the man, not wanting to miss any changes in his expression.
This man's style didn't suit her taste, but just the fact that he had a secret past with Jiang Yaru was enough to attract Jiang Yansheng's attention.
"I don't know her."
Ke Runze's Adam's apple bobbed, and the voice he spat out was as cold as ice.
He didn't lower his voice when he spoke, so the woman standing beside him heard every word clearly.
Hearing that, she was stunned. She didn't even need to think to guess that Jiang Yansheng must be talking to Ke Runze about Jiang Yaru.
Jiang Yaru was probably the most unforgettable ex-girlfriend Ke Runze had ever had.
This wasn't groundless.
Ke Runze was very popular in the entertainment industry. People who weren't in the industry naturally didn't know about his love history, but people in the industry knew a little bit about it, especially those who were in the same company, so they were very clear about it.
Back then, his relationship with Jiang Yaru had caused quite a ruckus. There was even news that the two of them were about to get married. But who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, the two of them would break up and never contact each other again. After that, Ke Runze had an endless stream of women around him, but none of them lasted for long.
The woman twisted her waist, and there was a look of resentment on her face. Her nimble hand traced the man's waistline, and through his suit, she teased, "Ah Ze, what were you guys talking about?"
"Do you mind telling me?"
Jiang Yansheng raised her eyebrows. She had guessed that Ke Runze would deny it without hesitation, but she didn't expect that the man's expression didn't change at all. It seemed like Jiang Yaru had really done something incredible.
"Since Mr. Ke said that he didn't know her, then maybe I got the wrong person. I guess that's true. You and my sister don't work in the same company, so how could you know each other?"
She didn't pay any attention to the woman who was stroking her hair coquettishly, and quickly pulled out a business card.
Ever since Jiang Yansheng almost lost his business card when he went to meet his contacts, he carried his business card with him whenever he went out.
Her fingernail lightly scratched the private phone number. "Maybe we'll have business dealings in the future. Mr. Ke wouldn't mind having another friend, right?"
When she handed it over, she pretended to carelessly brush her hair with her other hand, and the ends of her hair curled around her fingertips.
Although Jiang Yansheng didn't like Jiang Yaru very much, she knew that if she knew her enemy, she would never be defeated. She had spent almost half a year watching Jiang Yaru's dramas and the interviews she usually accepted, so she knew some of Jiang Yaru's usual habits.
For example, this was something she would do subconsciously when she was nervous.
"Ah Ze never accepts these kinds of business …" Seeing that Jiang Yansheng was inevitably reduced to the same level as those people who came up to him, the woman smiled proudly. She reached out to block Jiang Yansheng's arm that was hanging in the air.
"Alright."
Ke Runze's cold voice rang out above the woman's head. He was one step ahead of her. He took the business card from Jiang Yansheng, but he didn't put it away casually. Instead, he put it in his chest pocket.
The woman who had spoken up earlier was instantly unable to maintain her composure. Her face was filled with disbelief, as if she was in a dream. She had only met this woman once today. Although she claimed that she was Jiang Yaru's sister, she hadn't even confirmed it yet.
Why did Ke Runze accept it?
Not daring to vent her anger on Ke Runze, the woman could only glare fiercely at Jiang Yansheng, as if she wanted to eat her alive. She gritted her teeth and said, "Miss Jiang, right? Didn't you come to see Mr. Xiao? If you had waited a little longer, maybe … "
Her voice suddenly stopped. Ke Runze's hand on her waist exerted a little force, and she took a step back. Her high heels rubbed against the ground, making a sharp sound.
"Be good."
Ke Runze's words were supposed to be doting, but when they came out of his mouth, they were like ice cubes. The woman successfully shut up.
Her face was as pale as a sheet, as if she had heard some threatening words.
Ke Runze was expressionless. Without saying a word to Jiang Yansheng, he led the woman out of the door.
Every step he took was elegant as if he was walking on a runway. His body was faintly discernible, and there was a vague gust of wind.
"Who are you? You were so rude when you spoke just now." Ah Mei watched as Ke Runze and the woman who was hugging him disappeared behind the glass revolving door. She took a deep breath as if she had been reborn and said indignantly, "Don't worry, I won't kill you.
Jiang Yansheng smiled as he stroked the messy hair on her head. He threw a dangerous smile at the receptionist, who had been watching the whole thing with her mouth agape. The receptionist was so scared that she quivered and didn't dare to sit back down. She stood up and bowed respectfully, picking up the phone in a flurry.
"I didn't dare to call just now because Mr. Ke was there. I'll transfer your call to Mr. Xiao's office."
Jiang Yansheng sneered. "No need. There's no need to call now that I know the floor. Since Mr. Xiao doesn't have time to answer the phone, I'll go up and see him."
The receptionist shrank her neck nervously. "You … you need to make an appointment. Then Mr. Xiao will send someone down to pick you up …"
Jiang Yansheng said impatiently, "I've told you many times that I have an appointment with him." She tapped her fingers on the table impatiently. "Does he have a private elevator?"
"Go in. The one on the far left with a blue mark."
Jiang Yansheng snorted and dragged Amei in.
"Is this okay?" Ah Mei nervously stuck her head out to see if that arrogant and despotic front desk lady had taken the opportunity to tell on her, but she was grabbed back by Jiang Yansheng.
"It's okay."
With a crisp ring, the elevator opened. Not only was it luxurious, but it also had a sightseeing function. Outside the fully opened glass, there was an endless stream of people on the street, which looked very spectacular.
Jiang Yansheng's beautiful side profile was reflected in the clean glass without a speck of dust.
She smiled with peach blossoms in her eyes. "He's just giving us something to do on purpose."
Amei tilted her head, not really understanding. She was still immersed in the shock of seeing her idol up close. She patted her chest from time to time and exhaled. "My heart almost jumped out of my chest.
"My heart almost jumped out of my chest. I didn't expect Ke Runze to be so scary in his daily life. Look at the makeup on the woman next to him. It's so thick. I don't know how he could do it …" Ah Mei was still mumbling after they got out of the elevator. "It seems like the rumors on the Internet are not credible. They said he was kind and amiable …"
Jiang Yansheng was amused. "Why are you poking your nose into other people's private affairs? Didn't you see that they were so lovey-dovey just now? "
Amei pouted. "That's terrible. His private life is completely different from the characters in the dramas I've watched …"
Jiang Yansheng stopped in front of a closed door. Amei was so focused on talking to herself that she bumped into Jiang Yansheng's back.
"Are we here?" Amei poked her head out and rubbed her aching temples.
Jiang Yansheng stretched out his hand to knock on the door.
Before he could touch the tightly shut door, the door opened with a click.
The first thing that came into view was the man's straight and slender suit pants. Xiao Chuyun said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I just came back to the office …"
Jiang Yansheng pushed the door open with a smile and sat down on the sofa elegantly.
Amei looked at Xiao Chuyun's office nervously. Compared to Jiang Yansheng's office, it was much bigger. Even the vase inside was surrounded by a glass frame. It seemed to be of a high class and price, so she had to be careful as she walked.
There was a door by the wall of the office, and there seemed to be another room inside.
Jiang Yansheng winked at Xiao Chuyun as if nothing unpleasant had happened. Her voice was elegant and natural.
"It's okay. We just arrived."
Xiao Chuyun raised his eyebrows and pushed his glasses. "Is that so?"
There were two contracts on the table. One was for the company, and the other was for Amei. Xiao Chuyun sat down opposite her calmly and pushed the two contracts to Jiang Yansheng. "The contract has been amended. Take a look first."
"You signed the contract. Take a look first." Jiang Yansheng smiled warmly, but her cold eyes were fixed on Xiao Chuyun from start to finish. With a light swipe of her hand, she placed the document in front of Ah Mei.
Ah Mei's eyes widened, and she braced herself to open the document. It was filled with tiny words, and just a glance at it would give her goosebumps.
There was no other sound in the office except for the sound of Amei flipping the pages.
It was extremely quiet.
"Miss Jiang, is this your first time here?" Xiao Chuyun asked with a smile.
Jiang Yansheng nodded. "Some people probably won't be able to come to Cloud Entertainment's CEO's office even once in their lifetime, right?"
"Do you want me to show you around? There are other artists' information in my company. If the Jiang Clan is interested, we can work together. "He looked at the other door in the office meaningfully.
Amei, who was seriously reading the documents a second ago, suddenly froze. She gripped the papers tightly and used the documents to cover her face. She winked at Jiang Yansheng from behind.
Why was she reading documents in the small room?
She was still here. Why did this CEO Xiao say such strange things to Yansheng?
Amei was a little anxious. She mouthed the words.
Don't go over.
Jiang Yansheng lowered his head and pondered. When he looked up, he gave Amei a reassuring smile and pressed her hand down to let her read the contract carefully.
Then he stood up.
