Then, the "lady" continued her eloquent speech, "We must keep in touch and communicate more often in the future! Let's help each other with whatever we encounter. Besides, among the parents here, the lowest-ranking one is a department-level cadre! So, the value of our gathering is quite high!"

This "lady" was swallowing her saliva frantically. Although she spoke enthusiastically, she could not hide the arrogance on her face at all.

She looked to be around thirty years old, and was covered in jewels and gold and silver ornaments, as if she had put all her wealth on her body.

Such luxurious attire makes it clear at a glance that his family must be very wealthy.

At this moment, many parents surrounded her like stars surrounding the moon, and flattering words were heard everywhere. They flattered her madly and tried their best to win the favor of this "lady".

Wentao sat quietly in a corner, his eyes quietly falling on the so-called "lady".

Just by the other person's unique and slightly sharp voice, he could conclude that this person was undoubtedly Li Pingping who called him this morning.

Looking up, I saw that this "lady" was wearing a gorgeous cheongsam embroidered with exquisite patterns, and she exuded a graceful and elegant temperament.

However, Wentao could tell at a glance that this woman was definitely not a good person.

Before coming to the appointment, Wentao had already asked his fourth uncle to find out the details about this noble lady.

It is understood that Li Pingping's family runs a fireworks business, the scale of which is staggering. Not only does it monopolize the fireworks supply business of several large amusement parks in Beijing, it is also a leader in the entire industry.

It can be said that in this prosperous capital, her family's business is definitely second to none.

In addition, Li Pingping is very keen on moving around in various social circles. She can be seen active among business elites and political dignitaries.

Because of this, she is considered a well-known socialite in the capital.

Wen Tao actually felt quite disdainful of such a woman.

Look at her sweet words but treacherous heart. On the surface, she seems enthusiastic, but deep down she reveals an unconcealable arrogance.

If the parents present were not from the political and business circles, she would probably have not even bothered to raise the corners of her mouth and would have directly revealed her contempt, right?

Even though she was still trying her best to suppress the curve of her lips, from Wentao's keen observation, it was obvious that she was barely doing it with great effort.

After all, as the current situation stands, there seems to be no parent with more power and background than her.

"You may not be familiar with Mr. Li yet. Mr. Li is the largest fireworks dealer in Beijing, and he is also a member of the CPPCC of Dongcheng District! Let me tell you, if you have any problems, just go to Mr. Li. Mr. Li can handle it for you in the political and business circles!" A parent who seemed like a lackey spoke up.

"That's right. Our General Manager Li is a big shot! Even to the district party secretary, he is well-known! Tongtong's parent, aren't you from our Dongcheng District Government? Communicate more with General Manager Li. Why hasn't he promoted you to a high position yet?" another parent echoed.

They were all flattering Li Pingping!

They did this in order to get closer to Li Pingping. After all, there weren't many opportunities to get close to someone like that. If they had to ask for help from someone, they could make themselves known to the public.

Li Pingping does have a set of skills. She is wealthy and has a wide network of contacts.

Many parents did not refuse the flatterers and also spoke up to agree. After all, it is better to have one more friend than one more enemy, right?

Many people even took the initiative to ask for Li Pingping's contact information. Once this door was opened, more people immediately joined the circle asking for contact information.

People always like to cling to the powerful.

"Do you know? President Li is not just what we see! She has another amazing identity - she is a permanent director of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce!" One of the parents shouted excitedly, her voice so sharp that it seemed to pierce the eardrums.

This parent is also a woman, dressed in jewelry and heavy makeup. One can tell at a glance that she is a loyal follower of Li Pingping, or what people often call a "lackey."

"Beijing Chamber of Commerce? That name sounds familiar..." another parent responded thoughtfully.

"I seem to have heard that all the famous business tycoons gather there! The spit from those big bosses is enough for small businessmen like us to live off for a lifetime!"

As he spoke, he showed a look of awe.

At this time, Li Pingping was sitting in the middle of the crowd, smiling and seemingly humble and polite, but the slightly upturned corners of his mouth and the smug light in his eyes were difficult to conceal.

Li Pingping is indeed a member of the Beijing Chamber of Commerce, but not a permanent director as they claim.

In that circle full of hidden talents, she could only be considered an insignificant little character at best.

However, judging from the admiring looks on the faces of these parents, it was obvious that no one really understood the inside story.

I never thought that after trying so hard to get into the Beijing Chamber of Commerce, this title would now bring me such a huge sense of vanity and satisfaction.

"Mr. Li, my name is Zhang Han. I'm the parent of Zhang Yuhan. I'm in the building materials business. I wonder if I have a chance to join the Beijing Chamber of Commerce?" A parent hurriedly stepped forward, handed over his business card with both hands, and asked carefully.

There is no doubt that if I can join the Beijing Chamber of Commerce, my future business will definitely be smooth sailing.

Just as the parent just said, if Zhang Han could get close to any one of the financial or real estate tycoons, it would be enough for him to enjoy decades of wealth and glory.

"Dear parent, joining the Chamber of Commerce requires strength, and your capital will be verified before you enter! At least you need a small goal... You should go back and prepare the funds first..." A parent said with a smile.

"Yes, Yu Han's parents, we business people are not up to par with them. They are at that level. Even if we tiptoe in, they won't play with us!"

When Zhang Han heard what everyone said, he immediately laughed awkwardly and said, "Sorry, sorry, I was rude!"
