Hunt her

Chapter 55: I Just Want to Call You

As Shen Yi walked from the elevator to the banquet hall, people called him "President Shen" or "Young Master Shen" wherever he went.

Fortunately, I had the foresight to let Yan Xu go back to his room first.

However, he did not appear at the party, but instead sat in a private room drinking red wine and waiting for the show to begin.

Ren Mingting straightened his suit and walked into the banquet hall.

As the host, the scene fell silent the moment he appeared.

Ren Mingting, who was about the same height as Shen Yi, strode to the center of the hall and raised a wine glass filled with red wine.

Ren Mingting: "Thank you all for coming from so far away. I hope you have a great time and have a lot of fun. Cheers!"

The crowd shouted, "Cheers!"

The reception officially began. Those who wanted to discuss cooperation continued to discuss cooperation, and those who wanted to expand their social circles continued to meet new people. The entire reception was lively yet orderly.

Xiao Jingxing walked through the crowd straight to Ren Mingting: "President Ren, it's been a long time."

Ren Mingting had just taken a sip of red wine and hadn't even swallowed it yet when the person arrived. He swallowed the wine and nodded slightly: "Hello, why didn't you come with your fiancée?"

After saying that, he pretended to be puzzled and looked around.

Xiao Jingxing unconsciously tightened his grip on the wine glass, quickly thinking of his words: "She's not feeling well, so I let her go back to her room first. Next time, I'll take her to visit the Ren Group."

He spoke as if it were perfectly reasonable, as if Yan Xu were truly his fiancée.

This man is a typical example of someone who would abandon his wife and children for the sake of his future.

Self-interest always trumps any emotion.

Ren Mingting smiled politely and said, "It was our poor hospitality. I'll arrange for someone to go and check on it right away."

Xiao Jingxing panicked for a moment, but quickly regained his composure: "No need, my fiancée will be fine after a rest."

Ren Mingting and Yan Xu must not be allowed to meet, otherwise their relationship as an engaged couple will be like a torn window that can never be closed again.

Ren Mingting patted him on the shoulder, insisting on going to check: "How can that be? My guest had a problem at the reception, we have to take it seriously. Why don't you come with me now?"

"Really, there's no need." Xiao Jingxing panicked. "She should be fine now."

However, Ren Mingting had already started walking towards the elevator on his own, so he had no choice but to follow: "Don't worry, I'll just check the situation and won't bother you for too long."

Xiao Jingxing frowned: "..."

We've arrived at the 22nd floor.

Ren Mingting walked easily to Yan Xu's room. Xiao Jingxing wanted to try one last time: "How about we just let it go and let her rest properly?"

"Ding-dong!"

Ren Mingting ignored his words and rang the doorbell directly.

With things having come to this, Xiao Jingxing had no choice but to stand at the door, gritting his teeth and trying to remain calm.

Yan Xu glanced at the monitor at the door and saw Jing Xing and a strange man, but they looked extraordinary and were probably high-ranking executives from some company.

She opened the door and glanced at Xiao Jingxing and Ren Mingting: "Brother Jingxing, what brings you here?"

Xiao Jingxing introduced her: "This is Ren Mingting, the acting president of Ren's Group."

"Oh." Judging from his demeanor, Ren Mingting was no ordinary person. Yan Xu invited them in, "Come in and sit down to chat."

Xiao Jingxing had already taken half a step, but Ren Mingting shook his head and refused: "It's not appropriate for two grown men to enter a girl's room."

If Brother Long finds out he went into his sister-in-law's room, he's bound to get a beating.

Forget it... He's someone I can't afford to mess with.

Yan Xu hadn't thought that much about it, but if they were going to talk at the door, then they would.

She asked, "Did you need something from me?"

Just as Ren Mingting was about to speak, Xiao Jingxing preemptively said, "Mr. Ren is in charge of the banquet and wanted to check if you were feeling unwell, in case we didn't provide adequate hospitality."

"Ah..." I see. Yan Xu looked at Ren Mingting politely and said, "I'm fine, thank you for your concern."

Ren Mingting: That's good. I just saw that your fiancé was the only one in the banquet hall, and I thought we did something wrong that made you not want to go.

The thing I'd been worried about for so long has finally been exposed.

Xiao Jingxing originally only wanted to use Yan Xu's patent as a gimmick to get to know other company executives, but he didn't expect that the first person he met would be Ren Mingting.

His carefully laid plans have all fallen apart.

Yan Xu wondered if she had misheard: "Fiancé...who?"

In fact, she had already guessed most of it, but she didn't believe that Brother Jingxing would lie to her or take advantage of her.

Ren Mingting glanced at Xiao Jingxing and then looked at Yan Xu with suspicion: "Aren't you two engaged? He also said that you have chip technology patents and can cooperate with us."

As soon as he finished speaking, the atmosphere became tense.

Yan Xu remained silent, staring coldly at Xiao Jingxing with a blank expression, as if he were looking at a stranger.

She said coldly, "Explain."

Xiao Jingxing stood there in a panic, like a criminal being judged.

Seeing that things weren't going well, Ren Mingting made an excuse to leave: "Um... I have to go back to the party. You guys can talk slowly."

After saying that, he immediately turned and left.

At the same time, he messaged Shen Yi: "All done, Brother Long."

Shen Yi replied casually: 【Mm.】

If Xiao Jingxing crosses Yan Xu's bottom line, even if his true colors aren't fully revealed, Yan Xu will no longer completely trust him.

Yan Xu asked him again, "Explain."

The tone was forceful and coercive.

As long as his reasons are reasonable and she can believe that everything he does is for their own good, then she can ignore it.

But if it's just paving the way for his own career, then she needs to re-evaluate the relationship.

Xiao Jingxing lowered his head, not daring to look at her.

He knew Yan Xu's character all too well.

She hates lies, and she hates being used even more.

He now possesses both qualities.

Xiao Jingxing's silence undoubtedly confirmed her suspicions.

She couldn't help but sneer: "You've made my trust in you a joke."

Xiao Jingxing slumped his shoulders helplessly, looking like a man who had done something wrong. He walked to the corner, squatted down, and buried his face in his hands, sobbing, "I have no other choice. The only way I can convince them is to tell them that you are my fiancée."

In a cooperative relationship, whether the other party has a partner is an important factor.

Even if the man runs away due to bankruptcy and debts, he can still try to collect the debts from the woman.

This is why single men who want to expand their careers are often eager to get married.

"So you're using me as an excuse because you have no other options?" Yan Xu said, both amused and exasperated. "I think you're quite resourceful, and your methods are exceptionally good."

"I used to consider starting a business with you, but not anymore. You're not good enough for me."

After Yan Xu finished speaking, he slammed the door shut. Xiao Jingxing squatted in the corner, burying his head and sobbing, as if he was regretting something or acting.

Shen Yi sat in the private room watching the live broadcast on his phone and couldn't help but sigh, "Karma is getting its just desserts."

Ren Mingting sat opposite him and advised him not to be too happy too soon: "Be careful, next time you'll be the one locked out."

"You're such a jinx!" Shen Yi glared at him. "But Youyu Technology's chip technology is indeed good; we can cooperate."

"Are you sure?" Ren Mingting asked in surprise. "Large companies don't dare use domestically produced chips because they're afraid of technical problems and ending up with a pile of junk. You want to be the first major company to use domestically produced chips for your sister-in-law?"

"It's not for her." Public matters are public matters, and private matters are private matters. He wouldn't joke about the family business. "Many medium-sized companies use Yuyu's chips, and a large number of users have reported that they run more smoothly than imported chips. I'm speaking with data. Yuyu is worth cooperating with."

Despite this, Ren Mingting still dared not try: "Then if you're willing to be the first to stick your neck out, you go first."

Just as the two were deep in conversation, Yan Xu's phone rang unexpectedly.

Shen Yi made a "shh" gesture, and Ren Mingting quieted down on his own.

Shen Yi answered the phone, her voice gentle: "Hello, what's up?"

This greeting startled Ren Mingting so much that his eyes widened. The sound of the clip coming from his beloved Brother Long?

I've heard that love can make people lose themselves, but I've never heard that love can transform a person completely.

Yan Xu was feeling down and really wanted to talk to him: "Nothing much, I just wanted to call you... Are you busy?"
