Chapter 320 The Real World: The Banquet 2
Su Nanqing's eyes flashed with disdain. With such a petty and narrow-minded appearance, she wondered what Fu Cinian saw in her.
Moreover, this Su Jinyue is too useless. She can already come and go from Fu Cinian's company, but she has no desire to know anything about the company's affairs or the business partners.
Someone like her, even if she went back to the Su family, would be devoured by them until not even bones were left!
With a personality like Su Jinyue's, she is simply not fit to be Mrs. Fu. Therefore, at best, she is Fu Cinian's mistress.
Given her current status, she wouldn't even catch the eye of Fu Cinian's parents. The fact that Fu Cinian brought her to this kind of event shows that he thinks highly of her. Anything more than that is beyond Su Jinyue's grasp.
Thinking of this, Su Nanqing's smile widened, and she generously explained to Su Jinyue, "Oh, I'm from the United States, representing the Su family to discuss cooperation with President Fu. My name is Su Nanqing, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Su Jinyue looked at the hand extended in front of her, awkwardly reached out and shook hands with Su Nanqing, then quickly withdrew her hand.
"Hello, my name is Su Jinyue, and it's nice to meet you..."
Su Jinyue pretended to be naive and petty, and started chatting with Su Nanqing.
Faced with Su Nanqing's intentional or unintentional attempts to elicit information and probe her background, Su Jinyue answered openly, but when it came to Fu Cinian's company, she simply said she didn't know.
Su Nanqing also wanted to know the true relationship between Su Jinyue and Fu Cinian, but Su Jinyue pretended to be shy and avoided the question.
Although her identity would be revealed when the banquet officially began, Su Jinyue simply did not want to tell Su Nanqing beforehand.
With Su Nanqing's ulterior motives and Su Jinyue's deliberate cooperation, the two chatted happily and even exchanged contact information.
Just when Su Jinyue was at a loss for what to talk about next, Fu Cinian finally came to her rescue.
Fu Cinian walked up to the two of them, interrupting their lively conversation: "Jinyue, it's time to go."
Then, Fu Cinian turned around and greeted Su Nanqing rather coldly: "Oh, so President Su is here too."
Su Jinyue happily stood up and rushed into Fu Cinian's arms, excitedly saying, "A-Nian, you're here!"
Fu Cinian helped Su Jinyue, who had thrown herself into his arms, and said to her nervously, "Be careful, don't be so reckless."
Su Jinyue sat up in Fu Cinian's arms and replied with a grin, "But, I missed you~"
Fu Cinian shook his head indulgently: "You, really."
Su Jinyue and Fu Cinian were showing off their affection without regard for others, and Su Nanqing, who was standing to the side, couldn't stand it anymore. She coughed heavily to remind the two of their presence.
As if startled awake, Su Jinyue jumped out of Fu Cinian's arms and introduced him with a shy smile: "A-Nian, this is Miss Su Nanqing. She said she came from the United States to discuss cooperation with you."
Ah Nian, you're amazing! Even American companies are coming to collaborate with you!
"..." Su Nanqing was speechless. The market value of her Su Group was much higher than that of the Fu family, okay?
Unexpectedly, in Su Jinyue's eyes, she is not as capable as Fu Cinian?
This Su Jinyue is definitely a love-obsessed person!
Fu Cinian's eyes flickered slightly. Although he didn't know what Su Jinyue was up to, he was willing to play along.
Fu Cinian pulled Su Jinyue along and said apologetically to Su Nanqing, "President Su, I'm sorry, Jinyue is a bit immature and has taken up your time."
"Oh, no, Miss Su is very cute. No wonder President Fu cherishes her like the apple of his eye!"
After hearing Su Nanqing's words, Fu Cinian exchanged a glance with Su Jinyue without leaving a trace, only to see her wink playfully at him.
Fu Cinian chuckled, but didn't explain further: "President Su, I have some urgent business with Jinyue, so I'll have to take my leave now..."
Fu Cinian bid farewell to Su Nanqing politely and then took Su Jinyue with him.
On the way back, Fu Cinian turned his head slightly and asked Su Jinyue in a low voice, "What happened?"
Su Jinyue linked arms with Fu Cinian, raised her head slightly, and smiled at Fu Cinian. From a distance, they looked like a perfect couple, a loving pair that made people envious.
But in reality, Su Jinyue was using this posture to make it easier to talk to Fu Cinian.
"Su Nanqing and I met once at the company. I guess she checked my identity later, but not thoroughly. She probably thought I was your lover."
She came here specifically to try and get information out of me, so I'll play innocent and play along!
Fu Cinian frowned, a hint of disgust for Su Nanqing flashing in his eyes, which quickly turned into worry for Su Jinyue.
"Don't have too much contact with her. She's from abroad, and we don't know if she follows the rules. It would be bad if she hurt you."
"Don't worry, she won't have time to look for me after the banquet."
Fu Cinian thought about it and realized that once he announced the company's future plans for holographic technology, Su Nanqing would probably be too ashamed to compete with so many companies and would simply return to the United States, thus no longer coming to find Su Jinyue.
But Su Jinyue knew in her heart that Su Nanqing would not leave easily.
Su Nanqing already knows Su Jinyue's identity. Even if she can't get the cooperation rights for holographic technology, she will wait until she has dealt with Su Jinyue and Su Jinshi before leaving.
The reason Su Jinyue was being evasive with Su Nanqing and even deliberately exchanging contact information was to set a trap for him.
Su Jinyue was certain that Su Nanqing would not let go of this good opportunity to deal with her and her brother.
As long as Su Nanqing makes a move, Su Jinyue will definitely be able to find something to hold against her, making it impossible for her to return to America!
Fu Cinian's banquet was a great success. After Su Jinyue was announced as Mrs. Fu, although many people regretted missing the opportunity to become in-laws with the Fu family, they did not dare to show any dissatisfaction towards Su Jinyue because they saw how well Mr. Fu and Mrs. Fu protected her at the banquet.
It's obvious to anyone with eyes that Su Jinyue may not have a high social status, but she has gained the approval of both the old and current presidents of the Fu family.
Moreover, the Fu family is notoriously protective of their own. If you bully someone's future matriarch, there's really no possibility of cooperating with the Fu family anymore.
Smart people know when to be pragmatic. Besides, whether Fu Cinian gets married or not is a matter for the Fu family, and outsiders have no right to interfere.
It would be better to offer congratulations promptly and leave a good impression on the Fu family, so as to get a share of the profits from the holographic technology cooperation.
Just because others have no objections doesn't mean Su Nanqing has no objections!
Su Nanqing looked down on Su Jinyue, so naturally she didn't believe that Fu Cinian, whom she had her eye on, would really like Su Jinyue.
One moment, Su Nanqing thought Su Jinyue was stupid and unfit for the occasion, but the next moment, Fu Cinian announced Su Jinyue's identity as Mrs. Fu at the banquet!
Su Nanqing's face seemed to be burning with pain. Although no one had noticed their conversation earlier, Su Nanqing still felt that she had lost face in front of Su Jinyue.
