Reincarnation Businesswoman: Miraculous Hand Space Hunting the Major - Chapter 54

Chapter 54: Shield

“Thank you, everyone, for taking time off your busy schedule to come and attend my party tonight. Later, I’ll announce the material gem list for tomorrow. This time, all the materials were dug and transported from Myanmar, and they were worth a total of around one hundred and fifty million. The big pieces of material took about a third of it while there are close to three-fifths of the old hole type.” On stage, after Wang Yutang’s speech ended, he announced the most important list of the night which made many people gasp out loud.

Myanmar was the place of origin for gems, and their quality would always be among the top ones. However, because of monopoly in the market, the Myanmar officials would always hold their own auction to sell the gems and would not ship them out.

Song Ye, who was off-stage, had no facial expression. However, in her heart, she had another take on Wang Yutang’s capabilities. She turned her head and found it strange when she saw that the man beside her looked like he was paying attention to his words. Was Qin Zhan interested in jades, too?

However, this one glance was observed by Qin Zhan. He looked down at the girl beside him, and his gaze was very deep, concealing his feelings. He spoke in a low voice, “Your eyes know how to speak too well. Next time, you need to hide your thoughts better.”

His tone seemed as if he was teaching the soldiers under him.

Song Ye did not know if this was a reflex, but she felt that every time the other party spoke, she would feel goosebumps. Even if she was caught, she smiled nonchalantly. “Your eyesight is too good.” Even though a fifteen-year-old child had clear eyes and was easy to be seen through by others, Song Ye was a killer; how could she not know how to hide?

It was just that the man was too sensitive, or perhaps he was still very much guarded against her. When she thought of this, she sighed for the first time in her new life as she felt that she would not be able to regain freedom tonight.

After Qin Zhan left the lounge, he kept sticking beside Song Ye. Even though his face was still very stern—upon closer inspection, one would realize that the coldness aura around him had faded away, and he was in a decent mood.

Normally, parties would always have the dancing segment. Logically speaking, the music should start playing after Wang Yutang was done with his speech. At this time, he waited on stage and continued talking with a face full of smiles. “Tonight, there are many valuable guests gathered here. The sale of gem materials these few years can only be continued with the help of ZF. Tonight, I am honored to invite this special guest. Everyone, please keep your hands together and welcome the top leader in Stone City, Xu Fangsheng, Mayor Xu.”

Before everyone could react after he finished talking, they saw the door open; and a middle-aged mayor walked in with a gray suit. Many people gasped, and it was followed by thunderous applause.

No one expected the mayor to come down personally for such a party. All the cunning businessmen could not wait but took out their name cards and were waiting for the chance to talk to him.

At this point, Song Ye also had a face of shock… not because of Xu Fangsheng’s appearance. Her gaze went past the crowd and landed on the person behind Xu Fangsheng, who was a young man wearing a white suit. There was something deep about his usual playfulness and cool exterior. Was this not the youngster who followed her to Stone City, Xu Zihang?

Song Ye rubbed her forehead. Even though she guessed that Xu Zihang was a very important person, she never expected his family to have ties with politics; he was even the mayor’s son.

When she thought that one of her Night Gang’s top leaders was the mayor’s son, her head started to hurt.

It was not because she was too careless; why would any normal person associate a student from a poor desolated school with the mayor’s son?

At this point, Xu Fangsheng was standing on stage and greeting the crowd while conveniently introducing his son.

However, Xu Zihang did not talk much and only replied a few sentences politely before he walked behind Xu Fangsheng and continued to search for Song Ye’s figure in the audience. After looking for some time, he only saw Zhao Zhen.

“Okay, let’s not talk much. I hope everyone has a fun time today.” Wang Yutang ended his speech and cued the band to start playing to start the dancing segment.

After he got off-stage, Xu Zihang directly went to Zhao Zhen’s side and briefly explained his situation to him. He openly asked, “Uncle Zhao, why can’t I find Song Ye? Is she not here?”

“Um… she’s here.” Zhao Zhen hesitated for a while before looking at the position opposite the dance floor.

Xu Zihang followed his gaze and was shocked. After a while, he confirmed with Zhao Zhen again. “Uncle Zhao, that person is… Song Ye?”

“Ahem, yes, but it’s not convenient for her to come over now.” Zhao Zhen coughed dryly in an awkward position as he had previously noted that Xu Zihang was Song Ye’s love partner. Now that there was a man beside Song Ye, he did not know how to explain.

Xu Zihang did not notice his difficult expression as his entire soul was taken away by the fairy-like woman. Originally, he thought according to Song Ye’s personality, she would wear a western suit, but he did not expect her to dress until this… seductively.

That was right. Even if the figure was small and her different parts had not developed properly—standing in the black dress, no one could tell her tender age. Besides, her every move and action mesmerized people. Xu Zihang was stunned for a while before he walked over.

On the other hand, Song Ye and Qin Zhan were like ice statues. Both of them were clearly very pretty and handsome, but they just stood there and held their own glasses. They were a fist away from each other, but they did not talk at all.

When Qin Zhan rejected the fifth socialite’s invitation to dance, the number of eyes that rolled at Song Ye was sky-high.

Even a fool could tell that Qin Zhan was using ground materials and using her to block his romance. The previous time when Xu Zihang used her to get rid of Tang Meiling, she saw it as an act of brotherhood and did not calculate it with him. With Qin Zhan, he scratched and suspected her when they met; why would she allow herself to be his shield?

In the end, the other party—who did not act like the way he looked—said, “Without my permission, you can’t bring out the photos you took.”

When he said that sentence, his face was still cold and expressionless. Only Song Ye knew that this man, who seemed upright, was actually such a petty person.

Hence, the two frozen statues remained in their positions and ignored each other. Song Ye directly treated herself like a picture hung up on the wall and directly ignored all the killer glares from the socialites.

This continued until a pleasant man’s voice sounded. “May I know if I have the honor to dance with this beautiful lady?”

Song Ye turned around and saw Qu Bai, wearing a white suit and extending his hand towards her to invite her gentlemanly to dance.

If he did not have perfume all over his body and gave Qin Zhan a teasing glance, Song Ye really thought that she got recognized in her disguise.
