Chapter 805 - The Audacity
Chapter 805: The Audacity
Gu Ziling was the only sober one in this family because Jin Bo was introduced to Sheng Kai by Gu Ziling’s own grandfather.
If he was to say that he was in a fire pit, it was his grandfather who pushed him in…
..
The next day, the inauguration of the Chairman of Huang Yao was held at the Four Seas Dynasty Hotel.
Many famous people from the industry, including Huang Yao’s partners, came to express their congratulations.
Sheng Kai arrived at the door, but he did not have the courage to go in. His godfather asked him to welcome him with a smile, but he did not want to go in and be ridiculed by the Sheng family.
A moment later, Sheng Xiao’s car stopped at the entrance of the hotel. Sheng Xiao got out of the car in a retro suit with blue stripes. Mu Qiqi, who was wearing a long dress, followed him.
The two of them were about to enter the hotel together, but Sheng Xiao seemed to have seen Sheng Kai’s car, so he said to Mu Qiqi, “Go in and find Lu Qianqian. She’s here today. I’ll come in soon.”
Mu Qiqi glanced to the side and saw Sheng Kai’s car as well. She smiled and said, “Hurry up then.”
After Mu Qiqi went in, Sheng Xiao walked to Sheng Kai’s car.
Sheng Kai rolled down the car window. He knew that there was no running away.
“Congratulations, CEO Sheng. Back then, you did everything you could to get rid of Huang Yao, but now it’s in your pocket again.” Sheng Kai himself did not realize how sour he sounded. “Don’t you think it’s fun to control everything like a god and play with other people’s lives?”
“Get out of Changrong as soon as possible. At least, it’s better to admit defeat than to be a scapegoat.” Sheng Xiao was indifferent. “I didn’t do this to you. You have to understand this.”
“The Sheng family doesn’t want me, but there are people who do. I don’t have any family, and I still have a godfather. I won’t go in for your inauguration ceremony.” With that, Sheng Kai started the car. “Sheng Xiao, one day, you will lose the most important thing to you.”
Rather than a threat, it sounded more like a curse!
The most important thing?
The seat of the chairman of Huang Yao or of Zhongteng?
Neither. It was Qi’er.
A moment later, Sheng Xiao returned to the hotel lobby and returned to Mu Qiqi’s side.
However, Mu Qiqi was busy chatting with Lu Qianqian, so he also busied himself among the guests.
..
“Mu Qiqi, I’ve never had a friend like you. We haven’t contacted each other for a long time, have we?” Lu Qianqian was dressed in stunning red, bright and generous.
“You didn’t take the initiative to call me either,” Mu Qiqi retorted, as the two looked at each other with resentment. But in the end, they couldn’t help but burst into laughter.
There were friends like this. Even if they hadn’t been in contact for a long time, they were still very comfortable with each other and had endless topics to talk about.
“You’re now the wife of the CEO of Huang Yao and Zhongteng. You’re really amazing. Unlike me, who has to get up early and go to work every day.” Lu Qianqian complained to Mu Qiqi.
“Where’s Lin Mu’an? Why isn’t he here?”
“He’s training at school,” Lu Qianqian replied with a smile. Whenever she mentioned her lover, even the corners of her mouth curled up with a certain sweetness. “We’ll keep in touch in the future. Don’t let us be estranged.”
“How can we? We can’t be estranged.”
The two of them sat together like sisters and their chatter didn’t end.
Soon, Sheng Xiao’s inaugural speech was about to begin.
In this huge ballroom, where the spotlight was gathered, Sheng Xiao walked up to the ceremonial stage amidst the applause and faced all the guests with dignity and confidence.
Mu Qiqi looked at Sheng Xiao and felt as if her soul had flown out of her body.
This was her man. He was the greatest pride of her life.
..
“When I left Huang Yao, I once swore to myself that I would never ask about its matters again. However, the irony is that I’m standing here again today. Regardless of whether it was my departure or my return, I think there’s only one reason, and that’s because of my family. The glory of family.
“In the past, the older generation paid for glory with their lives, and I regarded that with disdain. But now that I have both family and business, I gradually understood how precious the things they want to pass on are.
“From today onward, Huang Yao will officially be incorporated under Zhongteng.
“I will also officially become the Chairman for both companies.
“Here, I will fulfill all my promises. Within five years, I will make Huang Yao the number one in Asia.”
Mu Qiqi did not listen carefully to what Sheng Xiao said because her mind was buzzing and she could not hear anything. She herself did not know what was going on. At that moment, facing the man standing on the stage, the man who was admired by everyone, she just wanted to press him onto the sofa and kiss him hard.
Because she knew how charming and perfect his figure under the suit was.
Her face turned red as she thought about it.
Lu Qianqian noticed something weird with her and asked, “Are you uncomfortable? Why are your ears so red?”
“I’m fine.” Mu Qiqi waved her hand.
“Aren’t you proud of yourself? Xiao Qi, you managed to claim such a great man when you were just seventeen.”
“I’m working hard too.” Mu Qiqi puffed out her chest and said, “I’ll work harder to be worthy of him.”
“What do you mean worthy of him? Hurry up and give birth to a monkey. Give him a child and the old man will be completely tied up…”
After Mu Qiqi heard that, she immediately frowned. “Do you think he’s old?”
“That’s not it. It’s just that he seems to have become more and more mature in the past few years. In the past, who would dare to provoke him? He was frivolous and did not play by the rules. Now that I see him, I feel that this man seems to have matured a lot. However, I know that he definitely has more tricks up his sleeves.”
“You’re the one who used tricks.” Mu Qiqi immediately defended himself.
“Look at you. You still said that you don’t value relationships over friends. I only said a few words and you’ve become so fierce. However, it’s understandable. Because to you, Master Xiao’s position is not as simple as that of a husband. He was a teacher, an older brother, and then he became an uncle. This role in your life is almost over. It’s only natural that you’re protecting him.”
“It’s good that you know.”
This was something that no one could compare to.
No one else could touch it.
She was the only woman in Sheng Xiao’s life, the flesh on the tip of his heart.
Soon, Sheng Xiao’s inaugural speech ended and applause rang out. Then, Sheng Xiao left the stage and returned to Mu Qiqi’s side. He pinched her face and said, “Didn’t you say that you wanted to see me standing on the stage? Why were you distracted just now?”
Mu Qiqi immediately hugged his hand and said, “I’m innocent… I’ve just been thinking about you.”
“Then what did I say?”
Mu Qiqi blinked. They were already an old married couple, so there was nothing much to say. She then whispered something into Sheng Xiao’s ear.
Sheng Xiao was stunned for a moment and only replied with two words, “The audacity!”
