“Invitation?”
Jian Ai put down the pen in her hand and looked at the secretary in surprise.
The secretary nodded and handed the invitation to Jian Ai. At the same time, she said, “Hongxiang Group is holding a twentieth anniversary cocktail party in mid-November. They invited you and Manager Bai to attend.”
Jian Ai was a businessman in her previous life, so she was naturally familiar with such an invitation. Usually, during the real estate company’s anniversary celebration, as long as a peer received the invitation, they would attend. It was a tradition.
However, Jian Ai was surprised that they invited her as well.
Hongxiang Group was no stranger to Jian Ai. When the company was established, she was already familiar with almost all the real estate companies in Baiyun City. Hongxiang Group’s strength was on the same level as Century Group. It was a big shot corporation that was also on the list for the top ten celebrity enterprises this year.
However, East Sea Real Estate had never interacted or collaborated with Hongxiang Group, but the other party knew her?
Did they hear it from others? Or did they deliberately investigate? Jian Ai naturally did not know.
Jian Ai nodded without thinking. No matter the reason, since the other party invited her with good intentions, she naturally had no reason to refuse.
However, when she thought of Bai Zhou, Jian Ai still looked up at the secretary and said, “Remember to reply to Hongxiang Group after you go to work tomorrow. Tell them I will attend this cocktail party personally, but Manager Bai has something important to do. He’s not in Baiyun City now, and he won’t be able to return in the short term, so he can’t go.”
A crowded place was most likely to be dangerous. Jian Ai would not let Bai Zhou attend this cocktail party.
The secretary didn’t ask further and only answered obediently, “Alright, CEO.”
At this moment, at Yaochi Nightclub.
It was rare for Ji Haoyu to have time to take part in a gathering with friends today. However, after entering Yaochi, the first thing he did was to greet Wang Yunmei.
“Haoyu?”
Wang Yunmei was talking to the lobby manager at the front desk. When she looked up and saw Ji Haoyu walking towards her, she couldn’t help but be stunned. “Why are you here?”
Ji Haoyu was wearing a suit and leather shoes. He looked much more serious than usual. It was obvious that he had come over directly after work.
When he heard this, he smiled and stood in front of Wang Yunmei. He said, “I came to play with my friends.”
“Young Master Ji!”
Ji Haoyu was about to open his mouth to show concern for Wang Yunmei, thinking that he might be able to get Wang Yunmei to invite him to her house for a meal again. However, he did not expect to be caught by Qiu Jiahao, who was passing by the hall.
Qiu Jiahao went forward and pulled Ji Haoyu. He urged, “Oh, you’re such a busy person. Ever since you took over the Ji Group, you haven’t seen me. Quickly, everyone is waiting for you!”
“I’m talking to Auntie!” Ji Haoyu glared at Qiu Jiahao, scaring him.
“Oh, I’m sorry. I was rash.” Qiu Jiahao saw Wang Yunmei and quickly smiled apologetically. “Hello, Auntie.”
Wang Yunmei smiled and said, “It’s fine. Go and play.”
As she spoke, she even pushed Ji Haoyu. “Hurry up, Haoyu. Your friends are waiting for you.”
Ji Haoyu could only smile. “Alright, Auntie. I’ll talk to you later when I’m free.”
He turned around and glared at Qiu Jiahao. “Don’t you know how to see the situation?”
Qiu Jiahao shrunk his neck and said with an aggrieved expression, “How would I know what’s going on? Besides, wasn’t that person just now Yaochi’s general manager? How did she become an Auntie to you?”
Qiu Jiahao was filled with questions. The manager of Yaochi should be Ji Haoyu’s subordinate, but Ji Haoyu called the other party Auntie, and his intimate attitude did not seem to be fake.
“I can’t be bothered to explain to you.” Ji Haoyu’s face darkened impatiently as he walked forward quickly.
Qiu Jiahao pursed his lips and quickly chased after him.
The A808 private room was already filled with people. As soon as Ji Haoyu entered, everyone in the room stood up and cheered.
“Damn, Young Master Ji. To think that you still remember us.”
“That’s right. You’re too much. We asked you out so many times but you didn’t come.”
“Jiahao is still the best. You’ve finally given him face, Young Master Ji.”
There were seven boys in the room. A few of the boys brought female companions. Including Ji Haoyu and Qiu Jiahao, there were about fifteen people.
These people were all Ji Haoyu’s friends in Baiyun City. They did everything. Not all of them were rich young masters like Qiu Jiahao, but their family backgrounds were reasonable.
Because Ji Haoyu never looked at backgrounds when making friends. It was fine as long as they could play together.
Being with these people was also a rare time for Ji Haoyu to relax. Therefore, as soon as he entered, Ji Haoyu’s expression relaxed. “Alright, alright. I’ll punish myself with alcohol later.”
One of the refined-looking boys noticed Ji Haoyu’s clothes and couldn’t help but ask, “Young Master Ji, did you just come out of the company? Have you eaten dinner? Why don’t I order you something to eat?”
The boy’s name was Jia Hai. He was a language teacher in primary school and came from a scholarly family. He was usually a meticulous person.
Ji Haoyu took off his suit jacket, revealing a white shirt inside. Hearing this, he casually shook his head. “No need. I ate at the company tonight.”
Some of the boys’ girlfriends had seen Ji Haoyu before, but some were seeing him for the first time. No matter who it was, all the girls could not help but stare at Ji Haoyu when they saw him.
Putting aside his noble status, just his handsome face and perfect figure were enough to make people unable to take their eyes off him.
After sitting down, everyone started to drink and chat. Because they were all old acquaintances, Ji Haoyu completely integrated into the conversation.
As they were drinking and chatting, Qiu Jiahao suddenly noticed the cufflinks on Ji Haoyu’s white shirt.
“Young Master Ji, your cufflinks are quite nice. Where did you buy them?” Qiu Jiahao said as he reached out.
However, before he could touch it, Ji Haoyu slapped his hand to the side unceremoniously. “Don’t touch it!”
Ji Haoyu used strength this time. Qiu Jiahao covered his hand in pain. When he heard this, he looked at Ji Haoyu with an aggrieved expression and said, “You’re too petty. You won’t even let your brother touch a single cufflink. I didn’t say that I wanted to snatch yours.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Qiu Jiahao stuck his head out again. “Let me see your treasure. I’ll just take a look!”
This pair of cufflinks was the pair Jian Ai gave Ji Haoyu. Initially, Ji Haoyu was reluctant to wear them, but on second thought, it was because she gave them to him he should wear them often. Therefore, during this period, as long as he was wearing a formal suit, he would always match it with this pair of cufflinks.
“You can look, but you can’t touch!” Ji Haoyu reached out and warned.
Qiu Jiahao pursed his lips, but his eyes were still on the cufflinks. He looked at them carefully and nodded. “They look good. What brand are they? I’ll buy a pair later.”
