“I haven’t been back for many years. I can’t even remember what my hometown looks like.” At the mention of her hometown, Madam Liang’s eyes were filled with nostalgia.

Lin Qingqian felt that she was an amiable old woman and did not want to see her sad. She said kindly, “I took some photos when I went back previously. Madam, do you want to take a look?”

“Alright.” Madam Liang’s eyes lit up when she heard that there were photos of her hometown. She paused and said to Chairman Liang, “You men won’t be interested in these things. Let’s talk over there. Director Jiang doesn’t mind letting this lass chat with me for a while, right?”

Jiang Yanshen looked down at Lin Qingqian and said indifferently, “I don’t mind.”

Lin Qingqian let go of his arm and went forward to hold Mrs. Liang’s arm. She followed her to the resting area set up outside to look at the photos.

Jiang Yanshen’s gaze followed her figure until her back disappeared at the door.

Chairman Liang teased, “I didn’t expect you to be a man of romance.”

Jiang Yan narrowed his eyes and the corners of his mouth curled up slightly. He did not explain.

She probably did not want to accompany him to this banquet, but she still dressed up and attended. She even behaved very cooperatively with Madam Liang. Her attitude was completely different from before. It was intriguing.

Chairman Liang treated his silence as the antics of a young man being embarrassed. He said as someone who had been through the same thing before, “I’m considered someone who has one foot in the coffin. I’ve seen all kinds of people in my life, but it’s rare to meet someone like this girl with such pure and tenacious eyes. For this kind of girl to follow you, you have to treat her well.”

Jiang Yanshen nodded. After a moment of silence, he suddenly said, “Chairman Liang, there’s something I might have to trouble you with…”

… .

Lin Qingqian accompanied Madam Liang to look at the photos for a while and talked about the changes in Yushan.

Madam Liang’s eyes turned red when she heard this. She was happy to know that her hometown was developing well.

After looking at the photos, Mrs. Liang took the initiative to exchange WeChat numbers with her. She asked Lin Qingqian to send her more photos if she went back to Yushan in the future.

Lin Qingqian agreed immediately and stood up to send her back to the hall. Then, she went to the washroom. As soon as she came out of the washroom, she bumped into Lu Qinshang, who had come out of the men’s washroom opposite.

When Lu Qinshang saw her, he snorted. “Why do I bump into you everywhere I go? How unlucky!”

“If you don’t want to be unlucky, Superstar Lu can stay at home and not come out,” Lin Qingqian replied with a smile. Before Lu Qinshang could speak, she said, “I forgot that you have to meet 30 socialites. It’s a little difficult for you to stay at home.”

“You!!” Lu Qinshang’s face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

Lin Qingqian washed her hands and slowly wiped them. She looked at the man’s angry facial features and her smile became even brighter. “Although I don’t know why Mr. Lu hates me so much, I can’t help but say one more thing—

There are so many people who hate me. Who do you think you are?”

As soon as she finished speaking, the tissue was thrown into the wastebasket. She walked elegantly past the furious Lu Qinshang in her high heels.

When Gu Xici came out of the washroom, Lu Qinshang gritted his teeth and said, “I saw it clearly. Lin Qingqian is not a bun at all. What gentleness, respect, innocence, and harmlessness? She was simply pretending and lying to Ah Yan!!”

“Since you know that she’s not a bun, why did you still provoke her? Should I praise your courage or scold you for being cheap?” Gu Xici said slowly as he washed his hands.

Lu Qinshang turned his head and said, “Is that the main point? The main point is that she lied to Ah Yan!!!”

“How do you know that Ah Yan doesn’t like the current Lin Qingqian?”
