Abuse turns into madness, domineering CEO Huo spoils her to no limit
Chapter 118: The star-studded dinner is nothing but a battlefield for the rich and powerful
In a blink of an eye, the Hong Kong City Alumni Association dinner was attended by many stars.
As night falls, the hotel is filled with stars.
The luxurious Golden Hall was covered with a red carpet from the entrance to the podium.
Divide the hall into two;
The noble and powerful stand on the dais;
A person who builds connections and shuttles between the red carpet.
In order to let Chen Ailin officially debut as her wife, Si Jin specially laid flowers on both sides of the red carpet;
Also to untie the knot in her heart that has been buried for a long time.
The tables on both sides were covered with flowers, and the aroma of champagne and red wine diffused in the air filled with power and desire;
The low, gentle symphony, like a battlefield trumpet, blows the war between heaven and hell;
The high-end champagne-colored tablecloths, like flags heralding victory, adorned the entire banquet hall;
A luxurious symbol of sovereignty asserted by the superior.
The tall crystal chandelier hangs down from the sky like a crown.
For the top predator, bring dark glory.
The black, grey and white marble on the ground reflects the starry sky ceiling in the vast sky;
Lines of colorful evening gowns and dim lights interweave into a huge checkerboard;
Everyone’s relationships converge in it;
Freeze all the superficial noise into tacit desires.
Intentionally or unintentionally, the constant flow of toasts is a skill that must be mastered in the world of fame and fortune;
It's like a standard dance without music;
People with ulterior motives walked among them, holding wine glasses.
Although it was an alumni association dinner, Huo Rongxin wanted to establish his reputation in Hong Kong;
Only some dignitaries from Upper Town and Harbor Town were invited to the dinner.
Huo Rongshen has gone to great lengths to allow the rich second generation of the four major families to appear again.
Even Ji Weiqiao, one of the four major financial groups in Upper City and a long-time resident of France, was brought here by him.
"Boss Ji, congratulations to Boss Ji for becoming the heir to the No. 1 financial group in France."
Ji Weiqiao is Huo Rongtian's childhood playmate;
Although I have settled abroad, we still keep in touch occasionally.
"Thank you. Second Young Master, congratulations to you. Congratulations on becoming the chairman of Hengdong Shangcheng. Will I see you in New City next time, as the chairman of Hengdong?"
"Mr. Ji, you are joking. My father is still strong and healthy. I am not qualified to inherit his position."
"Your brother and I are close friends. If Mr. Huo doesn't mind, you can call me Wei Qiao."
"Thank you for selling us the land in France at a low price."
"You're welcome. Hengdong's overseas business is beginning to spread all over the world, and we also hope to get a piece of the pie with you."
After the business talk ended, Huo Rongtin, Si Jin, and Lu Yichen came from a distance.
"This is the first time that the sons of the four richest men in Upper City have gathered together. We have my brother to thank."
Huo Rongtian held up his glass politely in front of Huo Rongxin;
Huo Rongxin's eyes contained a hint of hypocrisy mixed with decency as he gently clinked glasses with him.
"Rongtian, where is your female companion?"
"She'll show up a little later."
"Oh, I'm a little curious, who is Rong Tian's female companion for such an important occasion?"
Si Jin tried to pry open Huo Rongtin's mouth several times, but was rejected every time.
"Is it a bit mysterious this time? We Rongtian have always been open and aboveboard."
Huo Rongxin showed a hint of uneasiness and curled his lips stiffly.
Important guests entered the venue one after another with their invitations. Huo Rongxin signaled his assistant to arrange for the mayor and deputy mayor of Shanghai to stand on the stage for a group photo.
Then he took Ding Yirou to mingle with the powerful and introduced the mayor and deputy mayor of Shanghai City to Ding Yirou.
"Mayor Ying, Vice Mayor Qiu, let me introduce you. This is my secretary Ding Yirou. This is Mayor Ying and Vice Mayor Qiu. They are both my close friends for many years."
Ding Yirou introduced herself gracefully and appropriately, and carefully looked at the top city's top and second-in-command.
"Your president Huo is very capable. Now, most of the industries in Shangcheng are created by the Huo family, and the industries are gradually spreading across the country. You, Hengdong, can be said to have gone out and come back. It is an honor to be able to take root in our Shangcheng."
“Mayor Ying is so good at talking. Thank you for giving us the opportunity. Now we have the chance to show our talents.”
"Yirou, huh? Mr. Huo can bring you out to such an important occasion to broaden your horizons, which shows that he values you very much."
Mayor Ying's eyes were deep and his words were full of meaning.
"It is an honor for subordinates that President Huo is willing to promote them. It is also an honor for me, Ding Yirou, to have such a good leader."
"You must be promoted because of your ability."
Deputy Mayor Qiu echoed the sentiment; he and Huo Rongshen usually had an average relationship;
Mayor Ying had a close relationship with him, and he looked quite reluctant to be dragged to the platform by him this time.
After the two important figures stood on the platform, they drove away quickly;
Then he continued to take her and introduce other important people in the upper city.
Brunei's richest man looked at Ye Yirou and said, "Old Huo, why don't you pick a good-looking female companion?"
Huo Rongxin half covered his eyes and looked at him with a little disdain: "Do you think she is ugly? I think she is very beautiful. Elegant, generous and decent."
The richest man also narrowed his eyes and stared at Ding Yirou with lustful eyes: "No way, Old Huo, are you really crazy? I just said something casually, and you are protecting her? Do you really like her?"
Huo Rongxin was used to keeping silent. Ding Yirou was afraid of being misunderstood, so she quickly interrupted: "Fortunately, I don't make a living by my face; fortunately, Hengdong doesn't have the habit of judging people by their appearance. Otherwise, I would have starved to death."
The corners of Huo Rongxin's mouth curved up.
There is something about this neither humble nor arrogant attitude.
Huo Rongxin took Ding Yirou away and said, "I'm sorry, some people don't speak in a proper manner, please don't mind it."
Ding Yirou shrugged casually and smiled faintly: "This star-studded dinner is just a Shura field for the rich and powerful; it is not a stage for a small person like me. No one will remember what I say; and I have no right to mind what they say."
"Do you believe me? I can push you to a bigger stage. Come to me. With your ability, I can make you stand higher."
The reason why Huo Rongxin introduced various resources to Ding Yirou so openly was to make her trust him.
It is impossible to say that there is no hesitation in my heart.
This desire for power, coupled with the title Huo Rongxin publicly gave her;
These were things she had never gotten from Huo Rongtin, and she didn't even dare to imagine.
No matter how the outside world views her identity, this breakthrough across classes;
It really shook her soft heart.
From a weed, to a swaying lily of the valley;
Ding Yirou knew how difficult it was for her to climb up to this point.
"Mr. Huo, I am still qualified to be your secretary. Can you let me improve myself?"
Huo Rongxin took a deep breath, and his chest rose and fell violently, revealing the final limit of his possessiveness.
Ding Yirou knew that Huo Rongxin deliberately put her in that position on important occasions.
She is the only woman who refuses to take the step even after being given one.
Huo Rongxin's eyes were cold, and his voice was low and threatening: "I'll give you some time. Think about it carefully and then answer me."
