Chapter 362 - 362 Okay, Okay, Okay, So This Is How We Play_l
Pairs of eyes were all drawn to a luxury car.
The rear door opened.
First to emerge was a slender and straight beautiful leg.
Then the rest of the body descended from the car.
It was a woman who outshone all others.
Dressed in a black evening gown adorned with many precious jewels, it was as if a myriad of sparkling stars, parading their splendor amidst the crowd.
The black evening gown appeared mysterious and noble, clinging tightly to her graceful figure and outlining perfect curves.
Her body seemed like a meticulously carved masterpiece by the hands of the heavens.
That waist, so astonishingly slender it seemed it could be encircled by just a palm.
And the abundant curves both in her bust and behind exuded endless charm, drawing gazes that were hard to shift away.
Her disposition, too, was utterly captivating.
That composure and elegance seemed to be innate.
As she walked towards the crowd, every step was like a catwalk, and every turn emitted an irresistible fragrance.
The smile on her face, bright and warm, was like the sun in spring, intoxicating the heart.
If An Nuonuo was like a pure and flawless snow lotus flower growing on the summit of a snowy mountain,
Then Jiang Xiaoyan was like a black rose blooming in the depths of an abyss, mysterious and alluring, prompting one to explore its depths.
Photographers and guests alike were dazzled by Jiang Xiaoyan.
On appearance alone,
Whether in terms of figure or looks, Jiang Xiaoyan and An Nuonuo seemed to be on par with each other.
Encountering such top-tier beauties was a rarity of rarities.
To see two at once was like a dream.
Those so-called female megastars simply couldn’t compare.
Only Jiang Xu glanced at Jiang Xiaoyan and sneered in his heart.
This girl has quite a few tricks up her sleeve.
Firstly, she must have spent a fortune on makeup.
Secondly, her natural assets were at most middling.
Now they seemed grand.
Without a doubt, she was a fraud.
When strength lacks, one makes up for it with equipment.
On the surface, Jiang Xiaoyan displayed a smile so enchanting it was lethal.
But inside, she was ecstatic.
Very good, very good, this was exactly the effect she was aiming for.
The center of attention—that’s me, the belle of the ball!
However!
As soon as she caught sight of Jiang Xu, irritation set in.
The look Jiang Xu gave her was one of disdain and skepticism.
Jiang Xiaoyan got the message.
She was angry.
Damn it, even though I may have a tiny artistic factor in my look, my base is still solid!
Liu Yun approached eagerly to chat with Jiang Xiaoyan.
Jiang Xiaoyan was also a VIP customer of Century Jewelry, spending tens of millions yearly, and sometimes even over a hundred million.
It was precisely because of this that she was invited to the banquet.
“Hi, long time no see,” said Jiang Xiaoyan with a smile, approaching Jiang Xu.
Greeting An Nuonuo and Zhou Qingyue,
then she naturally took Jiang Xu’s right arm lightly, “Shall we go in?”
Jiang Xu:
In such a setting, Jiang Xu couldn’t possibly shake her off.
So An Nuonuo took his left arm, and Jiang Xiaoyan his right, and they walked in side by side.
As for Zhou Qingyue…
She was squeezed to the back.
This ignited a fire of rage within her.
Being outshone by An Nuonuo was one thing, but to be outdone by Jiang Xiaoyan, this ‘little’ sister, was utterly infuriating.
“Utterly shameless, using the small to gain the big, disgusting!” Zhou Qingyue thought furiously.
Without that little advantage, Jiang Xiaoyan would not have been on the same level as An Nuonuo.
Entering the venue, Liu Yun led Jiang Xu and the others to exchange pleasantries with various industry elites.
They got to know each other and exchanged business cards and the like.
Although An Nuonuo didn’t like or was good at such occasions,
she performed quite well.
Following by Jiang Xu’s side, she played the role of a complement very well.
However, because she was so strikingly attractive,
the conversation often turned to An Nuonuo.
Some of the young and handsome men were even staring at her dreamily.
If it were just based on looks, she wouldn’t have fascinated so many promising young men.
But An Nuonuo was not only capable but also possessed substantial wealth and had a great father.
Combined with her virtuous temperament, she naturally had unmatched competitive power.
Some people, despite Jiang Xu being by her side,
still couldn’t help but ask An Nuonuo for her contact information.
Jiang Xu had anticipated this situation when they arrived.
It definitely wouldn’t do to refuse them outright; only a fool would do so.
He had prepared a backup number for An Nuonuo in advance.
She could just use this number to add those people.
“Hello, how are you?”
At this moment, a tall, blonde man in his mid-twenties approached them.
Liu Yun immediately introduced him to Jiang Xu and the others: “This is Louis, the next heir to the largest winery in Mei Country.”
Jiang Xu was aware of this winery, which had produced many world-class wines.
Its assets totaled over a hundred billion Mei currency.
“Oh, this lady is just so beautiful,” said Louis, his eyes gleaming as he looked at An Nuonuo.
He then reached out to grab her hand to kiss the back of it.
Jiang Xu grabbed his hand with a smile and said, “Mr. Louis, it’s a pleasure to meet you.”
Louis tried to shake him off but found that he couldn’t.
His face was smiling, but he was actually putting in a lot of effort, trying to make Jiang Xu look foolish.
From a physique standpoint, Jiang Xu didn’t appear as tall and mighty as the other man.
But in terms of strength, he was no less superior.
Louis’s expression changed slightly.
Liu Yun hastily acted as a peacemaker to pull the two apart.
Honestly, neither of these two big shots was someone Liu Yun could afford to provoke right now.
“They say people from Dragon country are modest, hospitable, and courteous, but it seems that’s not entirely accurate,” said Louis.
He wasn’t loud, but his voice was just right for the people around to hear.
Everyone turned their attentive gazes toward them.
None knew why the tycoon had suddenly become so provocative.
Jiang Xu scrutinized the man carefully.
In theory, the heir to such a large conglomerate shouldn’t lack manners or subtlety.
Moreover, it was the first time the two men had met, and there seemed to be no conflict or grievance, right?
They weren’t even business competitors.
So why was he provoking Jiang Xu like this upon their meeting?
Jiang Xu couldn’t figure it out, so he simply stopped trying to understand.
He had been tough even when he had no money, let alone now.
Therefore, he said with a smile, “The people of Dragon country are indeed modest and courteous.
But that is toward people. If faced with some dogs that like to bite, animals and the like,
we usually choose to pick up a stick to either beat them to death or chase them away.”
Louis’s face turned pale.
Liu Yun felt as if his heart was about to stop.
Oh, my lord, please stop talking.
If you keep this up, can this banquet even continue?
The atmosphere on the scene suddenly became tense and charged.
Just then, Jiang Xiaoyan suddenly pulled on Louis’s sleeve and walked him away to the side..
