After exchanging greetings, Sheng Ning didn’t plan to say another word. Anyway, Shen Ming’s attention wasn’t on her; he was busy chatting with Ji Le Tian and Feng Zhenzhen. He probably knew that Feng Zhenzhen had more influence than Ji Le Tian, so he focused his energy on Feng Zhenzhen.
Sheng Ning found it amusing, realizing for the first time that Shen Ying actually had a knack for business. Even though Feng Zhenzhen was already quite impatient, he managed to expertly ignore it.
It seems that Old Leader Shen’s passing has rubbed off all of the Shen Family’s arrogance.
Thinking back to the first meeting with Shen Yu, he was so spirited and full of arrogance, looking down on others.
Suddenly, a strong gaze fixed upon her, making her unfortable. Sheng Ning slightly raised an eyebrow and noticed a woman standing to Shen Ming’s right. She was wearing a green coat and had the fashionable curls from the eighties. From today’s perspective, she looked quite stylish.
Sheng Ning found it strange and looked at the woman twice. When their eyes met, the air seemed to crackle with tension; this woman bore a strong hostility towards her.
"Shen Ming, is this the famed Union Flower?" The woman, holding Shen Ming’s arm, said intimately: "She does look beautiful, truly befitting the Northern District’s Union Flower."
It sounded like a pliment, but the words "Union Flower" were emphasized heavily, making it unpleasant to hear. Perhaps she truly looked down on the so-called Union Flower, nothing more than a country girl, even though she has climbed the social ladder with Su Jiang. In their eyes, she’s still not worthy.
Shen Ming coughed and introduced, "I forgot to introduce earlier, this is my wife Ji Shiyu, and this is Sheng Ning, President Su’s niece."
"Hello." Sheng Ning extended her hand politely, but after waiting for a while, Ji Shiyu sneered dismissively, deliberately leaving Sheng Ning’s hand hanging.
The moment was awkward; Ji Shiyu even threw Sheng Ning a challenging smile.
Feng Zhenzhen’s face changed immediately; beneath her mask, there was a fierce murderous intent. Damn thing, doesn’t even know who she is. She gave Ji Le Tian a look; the latter understood and nodded.
Seeing his wife give Sheng Ning a tough time, Shen Ming knew it was wrong but didn’t stop her. Shiyu had a good background and had been pampered from a young age, never having suffered much, which made her arrogant and willful. But she had the backing to be that way; being the daughter of the Northwest Steel King, nobody dared to offend her.
Even if Sheng Ning is Su Jiang’s niece, what does it matter? The Ji Family in the Northwest won’t hesitate to offend him.
Moreover, if there’s blame to assign, it’s because she’s Xu Qigang’s woman.
Sheng Ning calmly withdrew her hand. Given her current state of mind, there was no need to fuss over such matters. To put it bluntly, she no longer had to be constrained by anyone.
Now, she has enough capital to stand tall. What does such embarrassment matter? She has plenty of ways to return the favor.
Sheng Ning didn’t mind, but Ji Shiyu clearly wasn’t satisfied. She suddenly covered her mouth, feigning shock, saying: "Union Flower, I heard you were kidnapped by Southern Border people and ended up bringing back two bastards? Xu Zongdui is truly an extraordinary man; despite being cuckolded, he can endure it."
"What did you say?" Insult her, embarrass her, she could endure, but to smear her children was absolutely zero tolerance. "Have the guts to say it again?"
