Shen Mingzhou chuckled.

It seems he was right; Shen Mohan might indeed be being kept by a rich woman.

Indeed, what good-for-nothing can he do without the Shen family?

Su Wanqing asked nervously, "Shen Mohan is back. What if he goes back to the Shen family? Will he pose a threat to you?"

Shen Mingzhou said nonchalantly, "If it weren't for me, the company wouldn't be where it is today. Even if Grandpa still values ​​him, he wouldn't dismiss me because of him."

"Putting that aside, the company is full of my people. Even if a good-for-nothing like him gets in, without anyone's support, what kind of trouble can he cause?"

Su Wanqing breathed a sigh of relief, but still reminded him, "I'm afraid he's now hooked up with some big shot, someone who's backing him up, and he'll be targeting you behind your back. After all, you bullied him so much before, and someone like him with a dark mind will definitely still hold a grudge."

Shen Mingzhou scoffed, "I could easily crush him before, and I can still make sure he can't recover now."

Ahead, people were already arriving one after another to offer their birthday wishes to Madam Xie. Although Su Wanqing hadn't seen Xie Lanyuan, she thought that currying favor with this matriarch of the Xie family would pave the way for Yan Minmin, so she pulled Shen Mingzhou along.

"I naturally believe you have the ability. Let's go and offer a toast to Madam Xie."

Shen Mingzhou brushed her hand away and lowered his voice, saying, "Shen Mohan already knows about us. I'm worried he might say something to Xuxu. Be careful what you say."

Su Wanqing was displeased and said angrily, "Why are you afraid of him? He and Yan Xuxu aren't that close."

Shen Mingzhou thought about it and agreed.

Yan Xuxu was his person, and she was also aware of the discord between him and Shen Mohan.

Even if Shen Mohan said something, she listened to him so much that she only thought he was trying to sow discord.

As for why she helped Shen Mohan out of that predicament, it was simply because she was kind-hearted. Yan Xuxu had always been like that; she couldn't stand seeing anyone bully the weak and would always stand up for them.

Regardless, Shen Mohan's return this time still made him feel a sense of crisis.

It seems I need to find an opportunity to make Shen Mohan disappear again.

After Yan Xuxu finished her exchange with several experts, she did not see Xie Lanyuan.

Thinking that her task was complete and there was no need to stay any longer, she picked up her bag and left the meeting room.

Mu Nan stood at the door and said respectfully, "Miss Yan, Mr. Xie had to leave earlier and asked me to tell you."

Yan Xuxu smiled slightly, "It's okay, I'm a little tired, I want to go back first."

"Okay, I'll inform General Manager Xie and then take you back."

"No need to trouble Assistant Mu, I can take a taxi myself."

"I'm sorry, Ms. Yan, I'm not sure if Mr. Xie has any other arrangements for you. Please go to the banquet hall and have something to eat first. I'll be right back."

After saying that, Mu Nan left in a hurry.

Yan Xuxu didn't plan to wait and took out her phone to call a car.

It's hard to hail a car at this time, and this area is frequented by wealthy people who have private drivers, so taxis and ride-hailing services are rarely seen.

Yan Xuxu waited for a long time, but no one accepted the order, so she had to give up and go to the banquet hall to wait for Mu Nan to come over.

At that time, the guests were all giving gifts to celebrate Madam Xie's birthday.

But her barging in still attracted a lot of attention.

"Whose daughter is that? I just saw her come in with Assistant Mu. Assistant Mu even helped her out of a predicament and kicked the Yan family out of the banquet."

"She's the eldest daughter of the Yan family, but she's severed ties with them. I heard she's now working at Ming'an Group, helping with their business."

"President Shen is truly blessed with good fortune. Having such a beautiful and elegant woman to help him with business negotiations is no wonder Ming'an Group has been thriving over the years. Now, with the support of the Xie Group, it's his turn to make money."

"That's because President Shen is capable and has an excellent R&D director. Otherwise, relying solely on Miss Yan to run the business, how could Ming'an Group be what it is today?"

Yan Xuxu heard these words and found them particularly ironic.

The honor roll of Ming'an Group is entirely due to the efforts of Shen Mingzhou and Su Wanqing?

But without her help and the support of medical books, how could Shen Mingzhou be where he is today?

As the group continued their discussion, Yan Xuxu passed by them and immediately fell silent. Then, Yan Xuxu raised her wine glass and tried to toast Yan Xuxu.

Yan Xuxu coldly walked past them without giving any response.

The birthday banquets of the wealthy are more luxurious and grand than those of ordinary people, let alone those of a top-tier wealthy family like the Xie family.

Upon entering the banquet hall, all guests had to present their invitations and register their names.

Yan Xuxu was brought in by Mu Nan, which meant she got in through connections and skipped all the formalities.

Every visitor who wanted to curry favor with the Xie family would bring extravagant and expensive gifts.

As Yan Xuxu passed by the birthday celebration table, she clearly saw that the ground was piled with gifts, but she couldn't tell whose they were. However, she still spotted a few rare treasures.

But tens of millions of dollars worth of stuff are just left there casually, like some insignificant, ordinary object.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. Someone of Madam Xie's noble status has seen everything, so why would she care about these things?

There were just too many people gathered in front of her, and Yan Xuxu couldn't see Madam Xie's shadow. She didn't want to join the crowd, so she found a quiet spot to sit down and rest.

A waiter passed by, and she brought over a glass of red wine. She took a sip and then thought about what she had learned from her conversation with the experts.

By sheer coincidence, she saw Shen Mingzhou and Su Wanqing walk forward together and present the carefully prepared gifts.

Before she could even offer her blessings, the gift was taken away by the waiter. Su Wanqing wanted to step forward, but was pushed aside by the other guests who came to give gifts.

I lost my balance and twisted my ankle.

Shen Mingzhou reacted quickly and caught Su Wanqing.

He picked up Su Wanqing in his arms in full view of everyone.

I walked quickly toward the exit.

He didn't notice her as he passed by.

The funny thing is.

He could see her at a glance if he just looked up slightly.

But his heart and eyes were completely occupied by Su Wanqing, and he didn't even glance at her.

Instead, Su Wanqing looked over at her triumphantly, curling her lips into a smirk, her face full of provocation.

Yan Xuxu suddenly remembered the scene before she fell, when Su Wanqing grabbed her hand.

She didn't think much of it at the time, but now she suddenly understands.

Su Wanqing did it on purpose.

He deliberately restrained her.

This gave Yan Minmin the opportunity to take revenge on her.

Then they deliberately fell down together.

Shen Mingzhou abandoned her and chose to save her instead.

It seems Su Wanqing can't wait to reveal her true colors!

"Did you all see that? President Shen is a bit too eager for this R&D director. It's definitely more than just a superior-subordinate relationship."

"I heard that President Shen is already married. He didn't bring his wife tonight, but instead brought a research and development director. The two spent the whole night together intimately. Anyone with common sense can see that their relationship is not simple."

"President Shen also introduced her to quite a few people, probably paving the way for this Director Su. After all, connections are the most important thing in the research field. If she can get a patent or win a research award, her future will be immeasurable."

Several men walked over and were discussing the departing figures of Shen Mingzhou and Su Wanqing.

Yan Xuxu heard this, but her heart remained unmoved.

Just as he was about to contact Mu Nan, he heard another exclamation, "Never mind President Shen, I heard President Xie is here and is with the Lin family's daughter. It seems the two families are considering a marriage alliance."
