"If you want to say that Miss Yan's family has been favored since she was a child, look at this birthday party. There are new tricks every year. No other family's children are as grand as the Yan family. The last time I held a birthday party of this scale was It’s time to become an adult at the age of 20, and for other birthdays, at most, I invite a few friends to get together.”
A certain daughter raised her glass and covered her mouth with a chuckle. It sounded like she was just talking about the birthday scene of the master's family, but it was interesting to think about it carefully.
The so-called "other people's children" here are of course based on peers in the same class circle as a reference. Everyone doesn't make such a fuss, but you do it every year. If you compare it like this, is everyone too rich or your family is too rich
It seems that Miss Yan's family is not very popular, because after Qianjin's voice fell, everyone obviously showed their approval.
Another Qianjin also took a sip of wine and jokingly continued: "People are incomparable. Don't say we are incomparable, other people's brothers are incomparable... Do you think when the young master of the Yan family held a birthday party? I remember the last time in Seeing the young master of the Yan family at a social occasion, seems to have been three years ago, right?"
"oh-"
All the daughters looked at each other in tacit understanding, chuckled lightly, shook their heads, and some of them simply clinked glasses and winked, as if they were conveying some unspoken secret: "Three years ago, I can understand..."
Only Ye Shuang didn't understand at all: "..."
Leaning her arms casually on the stage behind her, Ye Shuang shook her wine glass and smiled lightly and glanced at everyone: "It sounds interesting, other families value their sons more, but this Yan family seems to be planning to bring out a daughter to inherit the family business." ?”
"Ye Shuang is right." Someone beside him answered casually: "But this is actually not something to pick..." Just as he finished speaking, he was bumped by the female partner next to him.
"Uh, by the way, have you seen the new Cartier trinity tri-color gold series this year?"
The girl who was reminded by the light bump abruptly changed the subject. The people next to him were also busy giggling and cooperating to pick it up.
Ye Shuang smiled, and after listening to everyone chatting a few words, she took a sip of wine and naturally inserted the topic: "The rings and earrings are both good. I remember seeing many famous ladies at the private banquet at Mr. Lu's house in Jinghu City last month. They are all worn, but they seem to be different in Shanghai. In fact, the design concept of this year is better than that of 2010... "
Talk and talk and talk.
Most of the ladies at this banquet were not familiar with Ye Shuang. In fact, even though everyone has chatted enthusiastically for more than half an hour, many people still only know Ye Shuang by one name.
What family background? What identity? What status? What degree
No one knows all the details about Ye Shuang for the time being, but communication is just like this. If the other party doesn't take the initiative to introduce himself, or if there is no acquaintance nearby to introduce him, the general chat topic will not be impolite and directly ask personal information. .
And people's evaluation of a newcomer is directly derived from the other party's conversation, etiquette and understanding of social activities in the discourse and so on.
After chatting for a while. Noticing that Su Zheng had come back and was waving to her in the corner, Ye Shuang smiled and bid farewell to everyone, leaving the stage gracefully.
Su Zheng's ability to analyze gossip is not as strong as Ye Shuang's, but she wins because of her rich experience in stealing chickens and dogs.
In the villa, people who talked about the owner was the Yan family's affairs, and it wasn't just Ye Shuang who got involved. For example, touch up makeup in the bathroom, take a nap in the lounge, or take a breather on the balcony... There will always be a group of lonely girlfriends who think that there is no one around. And then talk about some more exciting secrets.
After all, in public places where there are too many outsiders, everyone will pay more attention to their image, and they are afraid that if they are not careful, they will bring hatred to the upper body. But if there are only acquaintances present, there is nothing to worry about discussing things that are not convenient to bring to the table.
... So just like that, Su Zheng, who is good at hiding his aura, easily heard a lot of first-hand gossip.
"Sister Shuang, you don't know that the relationship between the family members in this family is actually quite complicated." Su Zheng shared the news that he had overheard comprehensively with emotion. Can't help the gossiping excitement in his eyes: "The male owner of this family has four women. One is the original wife who died, two young wives outside, and the other is the current wife..."
"The male host was originally developed by the original spouse's natal family. Even now, he has continued to cooperate with the original spouse's company. It can be said that the original spouse's status is the most detached from the male host. It's a pity that the original spouse is not healthy and has no time to stay. The child dies young…”
While drooling and revealing gossip, Su Zheng took the wine glass in Ye Shuang's hand and drank it in one gulp, then wiped his mouth and threw the glass away and took Ye Shuang's arm to continue: "Later, the male master concentrated on developing his career, which can be regarded as a gesture to please the Yue family. The original wife was 'Shouxiao', and raised two wives outside but did not remarry. Then the two wives became pregnant in three years. The children born are now the young master and young lady of the Yan family... The young master's mother thought that she could succeed in the position, but she did not expect In the end, the male owner married into a small company and the daughter is the current wife. The current wife is in poor health and has never been pregnant, so the two illegitimate children were taken back. Several people form the current family relationship together.”
Things can only be regarded as ordinary ethical plots up to this point. At most, everyone can sigh with emotion that the rich family is bloody. What really makes the ethics drama become a house fighting drama is what happens after the new family relationship is formed.
The young master's mother thought that she could get a place, but she didn't expect to be robbed of her position later. Then she thought that she could only suffer in vain, and once again she didn't expect a turnaround. Now the wife found out that there was a problem with her fertility, and the eggs were congenitally unable to mature and were discharged, so she couldn't conceive successfully...
After the two illegitimate children once again had the possibility of inheriting the company, the young master's mother was of course gearing up to ignite the small universe again, giving up the queen's route, and trying to use her son to directly become the future queen mother.
Originally, her advantage was indeed quite obvious. After all, in the traditional concept, it is generally considered to give priority to letting her son inherit the family business. Even if the other young lady of the Yan family was praised by the people around her since she was a child, the young master of the Yan family could only be reduced to an excellent control group for the other party. But the tacit first heir of the master of the Yan family is still his son, and he treats his daughter just as a spoiled child because of his excellence and sensibility.
It's a pity that the young master's mother looked down on the enemy too much, forgetting that modern society no longer has an environment that absolutely confines women as in the feudal era... The young master was spoiled by his mother who carelessly underestimated the enemy and gained a reputation as a dude. I don't know whether it was unintentional or deliberately calculated. Three years ago, I finally did the next wrong thing that was difficult to end. I was accused of taking drugs with my friends and raping the waitress in the ktv.
Afterwards, he went to court, was interviewed, and was fleshed out. One wave, two waves, three, four waves, all kinds of stripping the family, almost even going out can reach the rate of return of a first-line red star.
After the master of Yan's family hired a lawyer with money, filed a lawsuit, and agreed to let the plaintiff settle the matter, in order to avoid the influence of the limelight. The young master was forcibly sent by his father to study abroad, and his mother was unwilling and had no other choice but to comfort herself that her son could make a comeback after the matter faded away.
However, in the past three years, the situation in the family has undergone new changes—Miss Yan’s mother found the current wife who agreed not to participate in the succession fight, and successfully subdued the current wife on the condition that her daughter and her nephew get engaged. The wife also joined the battle.
The original battle between two tigers has become a struggle for hegemony among the three kingdoms. Even if the young lady's mother and the wife of the main room have used their defenses against each other, at least on the surface it is an alliance relationship, just like Wu and Shu joining forces to fight against Cao...
"This is really a dog that can bite people." Ye Shuang felt that the battle for the succession of the Yan family was really exciting, and the undercurrent was almost as scheming as a palace fight.
After hearing the story, Ye Shuang went to get a plate of snacks and came back. While eating, Ye Shuang said: "Originally, the advantage of having a son is the most obvious. The other two opponents can't have children, and the other only has daughters. But I didn't expect that they would get married. The situation is completely different. From the point of view of the wife, she can't give birth by herself, but her natal nephew married her husband's daughter, and when the two children inherit the company, it means that they have their own blood. The two of them blow the pillow together , one has an excellent child. The other has a legal status and the backing of her mother's family. At that time, as long as an agreement is made, for example, the child born by Miss Yan's family will be assigned the mother's surname. For the current male owner, it can be regarded as an inheritance. To avoid being caught The incompetent son is also worried that the latter will ruin the family business."
"That's right, so now the Yan family is fighting fiercely." Su Zheng said with a smile, holding his chin: "It is a habitual traditional thinking for a son to inherit, but it is a bit tortuous for a daughter to inherit an IQ advantage. According to the current daughter of the Yan family Judging from the degree of attention, she is more likely to get the inheritance right, but it doesn't mean that the young master of the Yan family will definitely have no chance... Who asked her to take care of her."
Ye Shuang lowered her head to think about it, and the topic suddenly jumped: "In your opinion, who is the most likely prisoner who stole the safe?"
"It's really hard to say." Su Zheng blinked: "Theoretically, both sides are possible. After all, the master of the Yan family has not yet determined who will inherit the company... If it is a daughter, at least it will have to wait until she gets married and has a son. Only the Yan surname can make him let go, right? So this Queen's route will take a lot of time to complete. Maybe people are anxious to get some decisive quick chips directly?"
But judging from the current situation alone, the young master's camp is indeed in a weak position. It is only natural for people to have no sense of security and want to directly usurp the throne.
Anyway, the sons and daughters of this family are not the kind of harmless people, and now the secret battle for the right of inheritance has become extremely fierce, no matter which side is the final culprit, it is not surprising.
…
The two women chatted about gossip for a while, and analyzed whether the Yan family might become a potential customer by the way.
It's a pity that Yan's family is not too aboveboard. If they really want to do something that requires special talents, they will probably use it for some unscrupulous hookups... It would be too bad to wade into this muddy water, so Ye Shuang thought about it and decided not to do it. Pay attention to this stubble.
"Xiao Shuang." Sister Yu came slowly, holding a man's arm, and greeted with a smile: "Little birthday star will come out in a while, have you found a dance partner yet?"
"Most of the men at the scene have their own masters. The first one will definitely not be able to poach other people's corners. I'd better dance with Xiao Su." Ye Shuang asked Su Zheng with a relaxed smile: "You know how to dance male step?"
"Cough, cough, cough!" Su Zheng almost choked a mouthful of cake into the air intake, and raised her teary eyes with extreme aggrievedness: "You let me do male steps at my height?"
Su Zheng's figure represents the general average level of women, with a total altitude of only 162. Compared with Ye Shuang now, she is indeed half a head shorter.
Ye Shuang looked at her beautiful dress, then at Su Zheng's professional attire, and spread her hands: "My men's dance outfit doesn't match either."
Su Zheng stared at Ye Shuang with staring eyes. Ye Shuang looked back.
Sister Yu smiled, pulled the man to sit opposite the two, and gently and cleverly opened her mouth to draw Ye Shuang's attention: "Actually, it's okay not to dance, but it's a bit conspicuous... If Xiaoshuang doesn't dislike it, it's just Charlie Your boss is also here. I also lack a female companion, why don't you go together?"
Of course, Charlie is Sister Yu's benefactor, the man who is sitting across from the two of them now. I heard that the other party has a boss, and this should refer to Huan Chen's high-level figures in the Xiangjiang headquarters.
After thinking about it, Ye Shuang asked with a smile, "Isn't it over 40?" Being too old is not enough. Even if she wants to build a good relationship with the other party to earn money, she doesn't want to use such a meaningful activity as the opening dance to get acquainted with the other party.
It's okay to be in the prime of life. Anyway, everyone can say a word about the appearance of a rich woman when they see it.
If the age gap is too large, there may be some unbearable rumors circulating in the celebrity circle.
How dare Sister Yu bring the old man in front of Ye Shuang to offend others? Hearing this, he said with a smile: "Although Mr. Qin is over 30, he is in his prime, and he is also very popular among celebrities in Xiangjiang's social circle..."
It doesn't matter if you are really popular or not, anyway, there are always flatterers everywhere. As long as the other party's age is not exaggerated so that it is easy to be misunderstood.
Ye Shuang took out a napkin and pressed the corners of her lips that were not stained with cream, stood up and nodded with a smile: "Then I will trouble Sister Yu to introduce you."
Su Zheng was abandoned again, so Ye Shuang was introduced to the man in another corner of the hall.
Sister Yu can be regarded as a cooperative and mutual use relationship with Charlie. She talks and laughs with ease, without any sense of being enslaved.
But in front of this man, Sister Yu and Charlie restrained their attitudes a lot. This clearly shows that there is a big difference in level between the two, so it is impossible for them to speak in front of a man as an equal.
The man does not have a domineering posture. However, there is still an unconscious dominant habit between the corners of the eyes and eyebrows, which is obviously due to the long-term status of the superior, which is why he has developed such a natural overlooking perspective.
"Miss Ye." The man saw that Sister Yu brought Ye Shuang. He smiled and stood up to greet him. This action alone shocked both Sister Yu and Charlie secretly, as if they felt that the other party should not have such an attitude towards Ye Shuang.
Ye Shuang stretched out her hand to shake hands with the other party, with a proper smile on her lips: "Hello, Mr. Qin."
After the man shook hands, he spread his hands to signal Ye Shuang to sit down, and he himself took the lead to sit down again, and then smiled: "It seems that Ms. Ye really pays attention to me, so I may ask a rude question. I don't know if Ms. Ye is because of Tian Mo or because of Tianwang ?”
Fuck! Hard idea! !
Ye Shuang smiled calmly and gently on the surface, but there were already ten thousand grass-mud horses galloping past in her heart.
This person is really not in the same style as Lin Jue, a violent young man in love. So far, I have only had contact with Lin Jue a few times. Seeing that he was about to get funding, he temporarily retreated, and no one has noticed that he approached with a purpose.
As soon as this man opened his mouth, he told him that he had contacts with Tian Mo... Although the information he had was not necessarily very specific. But at least it shows that the other party has already paid attention to Ye Shuang, and may have even expected that Ye Shuang will find an opportunity to contact Huanchen...
Seeing that Ye Shuang remained calm, the man took a few more glances with interest, then glanced in the direction of Charlie and Sister Yu who hadn't understood the situation, and then looked away and said again: "Charlie's authority may not be able to cooperate with Miss Ye. I think you are probably more interested in meeting me directly, so you didn't invite me, I hope Miss Ye doesn't mind."
Sister Yu hesitated: "Xiao Shuang?"
Ye Shuang smiled at Sister Yu to appease her, changed her sitting position and nodded generously to the man: "It seems that Mr. Qin already knows what I want to talk to you about?"
"Some guesses, but I'm not sure if it's Ms. Ye's idea." The man pondered for a moment: "I think we should stop guessing each other's bottom line. To be honest, since Ms. Ye signed a large number of screenwriters for Tianmo, Huanchen has treated Ye The lady is concerned. Although Miaoyi's sense of smell is not so sensitive, I think that all coincidences are actually well-designed... Tianmo has been back from the dead since the defeat, and Miaoyi only thinks they are lucky, but I don't. Look, Ms. Ye probably played an important role in this."
"Oh." Ye Shuang nodded, blinked and saw that the man didn't speak.
The man choked. Then she laughed and shook her head: "Forget it, I don't want to guess the bottom line of each other, so let's finish it at once... Charlie, you represent Huanchen to meet other guests."
Charlie understood that the other party was trying to distract him, so he hurriedly responded and took Sister Yu away.
The men waited for the idlers to wait until the field was cleared. After sorting out our thoughts, we continued: "Huanchen has no idea of monopolizing the mainland market. No one in society can completely monopolize an industry. But it is undeniable that although we will not kill them all, we will try our best to seize every opportunity to use them. I am in an advantageous position... I think Ms. Ye can understand these things, so I won't go into details. In fact, apart from digging into the screenwriter, the second time I noticed Ms. Ye was because of your contact with Lin Jue."
"..." Ye Shuang sighed silently. Tilting his head in doubt: "I'm also quite curious now. With such an opponent as Mr. Qin in the Lin family, how could it be possible to maintain an even match with Huanchen for so many years?"
"Miss Ye's compliment makes me ashamed." The man smiled: "You only know Lin Jue, he is the youngest son of the Lin family, and he often has a more flamboyant personality. But Lin Chen is much more sophisticated than Lin Jue I don't dare to say that I will be able to get cheap under Lin Chen."
Ye Shuang thinks about it too, Lin Jue didn't realize that her intentions were right, but Lin Jue herself is not the head of Tianwang Media, so it's only natural that she is immature.
But Mr. Qin, that is, Qin Chu, was different. First, he had paid attention to Ye Shuang because Miaoyi's script monopoly plan had been destroyed, but the second time he noticed that Ye Shuang and Lin Jue knew each other, he would naturally be more wary. Secondly, Qin Chu was regarded as Huanchen's default successor. If you count the quality of the boss, he was at the same level as Lin Chen. And Lin Jue was a notch lower than these two...
"Mr. Qin, are you sure that I want to cooperate with you?" Ye Shuang asked curiously.
Qin Chu shook his head: "I'm not sure about this either. But at least I'm sure that you want to see me."
"...Although these words are a bit overconfident, Mr. Qin really guessed right." Ye Shuang was speechless: "In this case, let me speak directly. Mr. Qin probably guessed that I have an ally relationship with Tianwang or Tianmo?"
Qin Chu raised his eyebrows. Made a "isn't it?" rhetorical look.
Ye Shuang smiled, turned around and waved to Su Zheng who was paying attention not far away, and while motioning for the other party to come over, turned around and continued to smile: "Actually, my position is in the neutral camp, and I helped Tianmo dig the screenwriter because we have cooperation Relationship. The contact with Lin Jue of Tian Wang is because I am preparing to develop a cooperative relationship... I have some information here that Mr. Qin may be interested in. Maybe it has something to do with the reshuffle of your Xiangjiang Media's new structure. If it is possible .I also hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with Mr. Qin."
After Su Zheng trotted over, he still wanted to pretend to act according to the original plan: "Sister Shuang, you..."
"There's no need to set the stage. Just give all the information to Mr. Qin. He already knew that we wanted to see him." Ye Shuang interrupted Su Zheng.
Su Zheng: "..."
Su Zheng's innocent expression suddenly distorted into a face of crap, and he looked at the calm Qin Chu with extra entanglement. Toothache handed out the briefcase that he had been carrying in his hand.
Qin Chu opened it with a smile, but the file was not completely drawn out, so he flipped through it briefly and then stuffed it back in: "If Miss Ye doesn't mind, I want to read these materials first, and I'll invite the two of you to dinner tomorrow. Do you know if Ms. Ye can show her face?"
The goal of hooking up with the person in charge of Huanchen was successfully completed outside of the plan.
Although the development of reality has completely deviated from the script like a wild horse, but fortunately, the final result is still very smooth.
Ye Shuang and Su Zheng naturally felt extremely relaxed at this birthday party without using thirty-six tricks to lure people into the game.
I danced the opening dance with Qin Chu, and then searched around the various delicacies on the flowing water table with Su Zheng, and then sneaked into the celebrity circle to continue to collect a bunch of scattered information from all over the world.
Finally, halfway through the banquet, Ye Shuang naturally had the urge to go to the bathroom because of the non-stop eating and drinking.
After saying hello to Su Zheng, Ye Shuang went up to the second floor. Unexpectedly, as soon as she opened the door, she saw a man with a small knife on her wrist...
