In the midst of the exchange of glasses and the bustle of celebrities, the woman stepped onto the center of the small stage. She still maintains a youthful state that is inconsistent with her actual age, but the years have still left traces on her face. It is actually a bit embarrassing to perform on this occasion at this age. Today, in addition to the embarrassing situation, the overly sexy clothes prepared for her by the inviter made her feel uncomfortable all over, but she still came because she had a reason to do so.
Li Muye stood behind the crowd and watched. Wang Hongye's cold eyes were looking over with a somewhat proud look, and a sneer curled up at the corner of his lips. He raised his voice and said, "Ms. Jiang, today is a special day. It's my birthday, so please sing a mother's kiss first."
Jiang Xueru held the microphone with both hands and frowned, trying to maintain an elegant demeanor. However, the clothes that highlighted her figure made her age invisible and caused her great embarrassment, but she endured it silently because The inviter gave her an appearance price that she couldn't refuse, so she could only stand here. He sang in a hoarse voice: "In that remote mountain village, that small mountain village..."
This is an old song that was popular in the early 1980s. The content is to praise maternal love. For Jiang Xueru, who felt guilty, this song was too heartbreaking. She was already in poor condition. Halfway through singing, My mood was affected, and it became gradually unsustainable.
A man said loudly: "Are you a veteran Broadway actor?" This man's name was Guo Kan, and Li Muye still remembered that he was a member of the Taiping Society.
Jiang Xueru in the center of the stage was greatly embarrassed and seemed to be unbearable. Wang Hongye reminded from the side: "Ms. Jiang, don't think too much. Mr. Guo Kan is just joking with you. Don't mind. Please continue singing. Don't worry." Forgot that there is a contract between us."
Li Muye looked at the poor and hateful woman from behind the crowd, standing there awkwardly in a dilemma. At this time, I finally knew what was going on with the feast that Wang Hongye carefully prepared for Brother Xiaoye. To be honest, seeing that woman being humiliated and tortured there, I can't say how sad I was. But when he thought that she was brought here by Wang Hongye because of him, Brother Xiaoye felt that he should do something.
"You're almost done." Li Muye walked to Wang Hongye and whispered.
Wang Hongye stared at the center of the stage and sneered: "Are you feeling bad? Please beg me, maybe I will let her go if I soften my heart."
Li Muye nodded and said, "Okay, I beg you, please spare her."
Wang Hongye said: "You have a good attitude, but your begging tone is so annoying."
Li Muye said: "You know that I have no feelings for her. It's totally pointless to torment her like this. Didn't we agree? I came here today just to vent your anger. Is there anything you can do to me?"
"No!" Wang Hongye said: "I'm afraid you don't know yet. This Ms. Jiang has been in trouble recently. The man she was looking for later got sick, and then she was kicked out by her official wife without a name or status. , this is the fate of being a mistress. At this age, she doesn’t even have a home. She has no choice but to come out to work. Basically, she takes any job. The price I gave her is ten times less than her usual performance. Times, do you think she is willing to come down now?"
"Wang Hongye, I don't want to cause trouble, and I don't want to cause you any more harm. Don't force me."
"I'm going to force you to do something?" Wang Hongye said tit for tat: "Li Muye, I want to see how capable you are now?" She smiled coldly and whispered: "Believe it or not, I will kill you on the spot. Are you going to reveal your relationship with her?"
Li Muye sighed softly and said: "I thought you would change a little, but I didn't expect you would change so much. Wang Hongye, I will give you one last chance to end this performance and let her leave. Let's just Act like nothing happened.”
Wang Hongye's face was as cold as frost, and her voice was colder than her face: "You are the reason why I have become like this? Li Muye, I hate you, I wish you would die, do you understand? Do you know? Seeing you feel uncomfortable, There is no greater joy for me.”
"I just don't want to see you get hurt anymore." Li Muye said: "End it, irritating me will never be a good thing for you. I know that besides hatred, there are many other things you care about in your heart. Things and things, I don’t want to treat you in any other way, let’s go on a date, why bother to get to that point?”
"Li Muye, you might as well use whatever means you have." Wang Hongye refused: "Let me change my mind, unless I watch you die in front of me."
"My life is worthless, but you are not qualified to take it away." Li Muye sighed and said, "Meng Qingfu is your nominal boss, but he is not powerful enough to control Lin Guoxue, and he cannot tell you this woman relationship with me, so I guess the person who has helped you so much in the past few years is a Mr. Chen, and the one who gave you guidance is someone else. If my guess is correct, in the next three minutes, this person Mr. Chen will definitely call you personally and order you to end this, and it will be embarrassing by then."
Wang Hongye finally turned around, with a stubborn expression on his face, and watched Li Muye take out his mobile phone and dial a series of numbers.
"It's me, giving you a chance to help me..."
Less than a minute after hanging up the phone, the phone in Wang Hongye's handbag rang. She trembled slightly, took out her phone and looked at the caller ID, then raised her head and glanced at Li Muye in disbelief. Hesitantly and slowly, he lifted the phone and pressed the connect button.
"No matter what it is, end everything that is happening there immediately, otherwise, you will no longer hold any position in Hongye Group from now on." The man on the other end of the phone hung up after saying this, without asking for any details. He didn't care about her mood, he just gave orders rudely and simply, without considering her face and dignity at all. But she did not have any doubts or resistance to this order. She looked at Li Muye as if she was getting to know this man again.
In her eyes, an unparalleled and lofty person could be controlled in such a simple and frivolous way by the man in front of her who was once so familiar to her. The slap was so loud that she had no time to digest the pain caused by the phone call.
"Ms. Jiang, your performance is over!" Wang Hongye finally waved her hand to indicate the end of the performance. The brilliance on his whole body faded away in an instant.
The situation happened suddenly. Whether it was the people performing in the center of the stage or the celebrities and bigwigs in the Shanghai business district who were invited to watch the excitement, they were all unprepared. They were all caught off guard and watched. After a while, there was a lot of speculation. The sound enters the ear.
In the past two years, it has become famous in the Shanghai business circle, leading the Hongye Group to quickly become the industry leader. Wang Hongye, who is in the limelight, has carefully arranged and put up a huge battle, but suddenly stopped inexplicably with thunder and rain? Someone noticed that Li Muye was standing behind Wang Hongye, and the two seemed to have had a few conversations just now. I can't help but secretly guess, could it be this rumored bankrupt returnee who played a role
Wang Hongye completely ignored the questioning voices and glances. She pulled Li Muye away from the pavilion as if no one was watching, walked to the side and asked sternly: "Li Muye, who are you?"
"A man who doesn't want to hurt you." Li Muye said: "I have no ill intentions towards you. I just hope you can do business well and marry the right man when you meet him. Forget about me. The cleaner the better. .”
"Li Muye, you bastard!" Wang Hongye suddenly became angry and said, "How else do you want to hurt me? Is today's joke funny to you?"
"I gave you enough respect and the opportunity to give up when you saw fit." Li Muye said, "But you didn't grasp it. I just wanted to defend and didn't fight back."
"Do you need to fight back?" Wang Hongye said with an indifferent expression and a desperate tone: "When a tiger faces the provocation of a cat, it only needs to use its claws to resist a little, which is enough to cause harm to the cat, so you have been aware of this from the beginning. The competition was just a performance of my own self-importance."
"Old Chen is my best friend. We have been working together for ten years." Li Muye whispered: "The reason why he helps you is not because of how outstanding you are, nor because of how deep your family background is, but because I don’t want you to be a pawn that someone uses against me.”
"You want to tell me that even today, the only value of me, Wang Hongye, is actually the woman who once was you?" Wang Hongye looked at Li Muye with a sad and helpless look, and said, "Are you still going to be like this? Last time, you asked me to go home and clean up and wait for you?"
"Some things can't be turned back once they are done." Li Muye said: "The best place for a woman to end up is on a man's shoulders. It's not like hen Sichen, but you are definitely not that good. In the past, I would have let you You go home and wash your butt and wait, but I am not interested in you this time, so you should continue to do your business honestly."
"You pretended to be cowardly in front of me today, didn't you just want me to vent my anger and make you feel better?" Wang Hongye said with a sneer, "Li Muye, you are just a hypocritical beast. Tell me You, stop dreaming, I will never forgive you for the harm you caused me."
"You can do whatever you want." Li Muye nodded, looked at the woman walking down the center of the stage, and said, "I still have something to do, so I won't play with you today." He turned around to find Wang Hongjun and patted his old friend's hand. Over his shoulder, he pointed at Jiang Xueru and said, "Arrange a separate room for me."
A separate room means a relatively private environment where you can do things you don’t want others to know and talk about topics you don’t want others to hear.
Wang Hongjun glanced at the girl distressedly, sighed and said, "Hey, why are you doing this?" After saying that, he turned around and walked towards Jiang Xueru, who was a little overwhelmed.
Wang Hongye suddenly squatted on the ground, covered his face in pain and cried loudly.
The room on the top floor of the villa, a huge space dedicated to Wang Hongjun, is filled with valuable cultural treasures everywhere. The mahogany gums exuded an antique smell. Jiang Xueru sat there restlessly. When she heard footsteps approaching the door step by step, she stood up nervously.
Li Muye pushed the door open and entered, looking at each other. A flash of relief flashed in Jiang Xueru's eyes, and then replaced by endless guilt and deeper sadness. She had already recognized Brother Xiaoye, so she knew that the most embarrassing situation would not happen. But at the same time, she was quickly wrapped in deep guilt. Facing those eyes as calm as icebergs, she was almost ashamed.
"Come here and give me a hug." (End of chapter)
