Qiao Lian gave him a slight nod.
After Song Cheng left, Qiao Lian went up to Shen Liangchuan and suddenly asked, “Mr. Shen, may I know if you lack a female partner for tomorrow evening’s function?”
Seeing the sparkle in her eyes, he understood at once what she was thinking.
She had heard what Song Cheng was saying and knew that he was going to look for sponsors. She was worried that he would have a tough ti, so she wanted to accompany him.
Did she think... that he was going to beg?
The thought of this made him slightly smile.
He thought about the past few days, how she and Xia Yehua had been ho and worried sick. He nodded and said, “Okay. Put on sothing pretty for the occasion then.”
Things would get interesting tomorrow evening.
Since that man with the surna Lu had dared to frighten Xiao Qiao, she should actually co along to watch the cody unfold, shouldn’t she?
–
Soon, it was evening of the event.
Although it was winter, Qiao Lian wore an evening gown.
Wearing a coat over the gown, she arrived at the event venue with Shen Liangchuan.
This business banquet had been organized by the Beijing Chamber of Comrce.
It was a quarterly event that saw attendance from the upper echelons of society—they were there to socialize.
Many deals were made and collaborations established at these functions.
Hence normally, if one was looking for investors, they would find ans to secure an invitation to this event, through which they would get to know more investors.
In the past years, Shen Liangchuan had never been to any of these banquets.
That was why when he walked into the event location with Qiao Lian by his side, it imdiately caught the attention of the people around.
Soone widened his eyes in surprise and exclaid, “Shen Liangchuan? What brings you here?”
Shen Liangchuan turned around upon hearing this and looked at him, saying unhurriedly, “Why shouldn’t I be here?”
The man then fell silent, caught by Shen Liangchuan’s stare.
Everyone around looked at him with an expression of reverence and flocked over to him, asking all sorts of questions.
Qiao Lian stood by the side watching this happen.
These people were the heirs of the various huge enterprises in Beijing.
Based on his current status as a re actor, these people would normally not bother with him.
However, looking at what was going on, one could observe that Shen Liangchuan was particularly popular among the rich second-generation heirs, to the extent that they looked at him with obvious admiration. This showed that Shen Liangchuan had once been a hegemon.
A person could fall in dire straits, but the relationships that he built would be there forever.
Thus, the people who had followed Shen Liangchuan in their youth were now all grown up, and could hold their family businesses on their own.
Even if Shen Liangchuan was just a famous actor, this group of people would give him face.
At this point, Qiao Lian was a little puzzled.
If this was the case, then why couldn’t Shen Liangchuan find help to raise the funds that he needed?
As she was wondering this, she suddenly heard a voice yelling, “Dishonorable son! Who gave you permission to be here?”
Everyone turned simultaneously to look in the direction of the voice and saw Shen Xiu striding over. Fury was evident on his face, he looked at Shen Liangchuan with a murderous expression.
And next to him was a young man.
The corner of the young man’s lips were turned upwards in a srizing smile, and his phoenix eyes were fixed on Qiao Lian. It was Lu Nanze.
When Qiao Lian saw him, her pupils shrank at once.
Why was he next to Shen Xiu?
Indeed, the next mont Shen Xiu spoke, “We, the Shen Family and the Lu Family, are collaborating on a new project. From now on we are business partners.”
