How many loves can be relived in the story of a devoted CEO pursuing his wife?

"Ziyan, I've taken care of everything for tonight." Chen Meiyuan watched Lin Xuedong's departing figure, then casually moved closer to Zeng Ziyan. Her red lips parted slightly, and her captivating eyes scanned Zeng Ziyan from head to toe. "Are you sure you really want to do this?"

Zeng Ziyan stared intently at the departing man, her gaze sharp. "Yes."

She thought of Liu Sisi's phone call last night and believed that the fake flirtation was enough to crush her confidence and will.

Let's get it done tonight. Even though they were head over heels in love, in the end, it all came to an abrupt end!

Because Liu Sisi is from a completely different world from them; she's just a pathetic toad.

This chamber of commerce dinner was organized by the S City Real Estate Joint Chamber of Commerce.

The attendees included well-known real estate developers, agencies, builders, building material suppliers, bankers, transporters, lawyers, service providers, investors, design firms, and more, both within and outside the city.

It can be said that businesses gathered there, supporting and exchanging ideas with each other. Their aim was to find business opportunities, seek cooperation, and achieve mutual benefit.

Xie Zhanming was also among them. He was wearing a dark, handmade suit with a white shirt and a bow tie. At first glance, he looked particularly gentlemanly and elegant, with a dignified appearance.

"Oh my goodness, my little nephews, what took you so long to arrive?"

Lin Lan waved to him and greeted him with a smile. "Uncle~".

"Lanlan, my sister said she wants me to introduce you to some of the firm's newest partners tonight." He raised an eyebrow smugly and said teasingly. "They're all young and energetic."

"No need, Uncle, stop teasing me." Lin Lan rolled her eyes at him. Their uncle was never serious. He was always grinning and talking nonsense.

"You don't get to decide! Look at you! You look like a fairy today. Come on, don't let yourself go, come with me. There's Xiao Wang, Xiao Li, Xiao Zhou over there... haha~." Xie Zhanming grabbed her wrist, teasing her relentlessly.

"Uncle, just give me a small token of your affection for my mom." Lin Lan persisted, turning to Lin Xuedong for help. "Brother, please help me."

"Ah Dong, this is none of your business, don't mess it up." Xie Zhanming narrowed his almond-shaped eyes, glanced at Lin Xuedong, and said with a warning. "Lanlan, be good. Your uncle has to rush to the night market later, he doesn't have time to waste with you guys, hurry up."

"Hey~, Uncle, be gentle, I can walk by myself." Lin Lan looked helpless as Xie Ming half-pulled and half-dragged her toward the other side of the crowd.

Lin Xuedong chuckled twice, put his hands in his pockets, and strode out to continue searching for Lin Zhicheng and the others.

Midway through the banquet, Lin Lan made an excuse to go to the restroom in order to avoid being bothered by her newly acquainted friends, Xiao Wang, Xiao Zhou, and Xiao Li.

After leaving the restroom, she didn't immediately return to the venue. Instead, she chose a quiet corner, took out her phone, and planned to play games for a while before going back.

"Do you know what to do?"

"Okay, I understand. The target is General Manager Lin at table number 6."

"Don't make any mistakes. Here is 15 yuan in cash. Once the mission is complete, leave Junlan immediately."

Mr. Lin at table number 6?!

Lin Lan cautiously hid in the shadows, and only after the rustling sounds of packing and footsteps faded away did she cautiously peek out.

As she watched the two figures dressed as hotel staff walk away, her unease grew stronger. She frowned, beginning to assess the seriousness of the situation. Who could be trying to frame Lin Xuedong?

Could it be...? A scene flashed through her mind: Chen Meiyuan and Zeng Ziyan whispering to each other.

It's Zeng Ziyan! Has she finally lost her temper?

Lin Lan recalled Liu Si's absent-mindedness yesterday and became even more certain that Zeng Ziyan would make her move tonight.

Lin Lan's mind was racing. She hadn't expected Zeng Ziyan to be so decisive. She'd only been close to Lin Xuedong for a few days? And she already wanted to win him over?

What methods will she use? Get her drunk? Drug her? Threaten her? Or forcibly take her what she wants?

Thinking of this, Lin Lan suddenly felt flustered, and she subconsciously pressed the button on her handbag. Inside was a small pill, which she had prepared since she began to plot against the enemy.

She wants to drive a wedge between Liu Sisi and Lin Xuedong, and to confuse Zeng Ziyan with their love triangle. The more chaotic, the better, but that doesn't mean she'll grant Zeng Ziyan's wish tonight.

In the dimly lit corner, Lin Lan paced back and forth unconsciously.

How can I sneak in tonight without anyone noticing, and still reap the benefits of others' misfortune...?

Finally, she decided to play it by ear.

At the table, Lin Xuedong was talking to Chen Shengfeng about the technology forum and the opportunity to invest in the IT industry sector.

"President Lin, from your introduction, the future development of the IT industry will leap forward with 5G technology, and there will indeed be unlimited business opportunities!" Chen Shengfeng touched the bottom of his wine glass, his eyes deep and profound.

“That’s a major trend, a grand vision. Our Lin family has a plot of land in Hengzhou, and we’re currently applying to the national government for approval to establish it as the country’s premier 5G demonstration site. It will become a multi-purpose, multi-functional 5G smart pilot project. It will not only attract various industries to rent its resources, but it will also be developed into a tourist hotspot and a science and education base.” Lin Xuedong tilted his head back and took a few sips of wine, persuading him gently.

"Hehe~, Mr. Lin is indeed a business prodigy. Your plan sounds very good. The project is so grand, does Chen's Venture Capital have any opportunities to participate?"

Lin Xuedong raised an eyebrow. He had been waiting all night for this one sentence from Lin Xuedong.

But when facing Chen Shengfeng, he still said calmly, "Of course, if Mr. Chen is interested, please arrange a time for Ziyan to come to Lin's for a proper discussion."

"Hehe~, it's my honor." Chen Shengfeng raised his glass and toasted him with another glass of red wine.

As soon as Lin Lan returned to her seat, Xie Xue asked with a reproachful look, "Where have you been? Little Zhou just came over to offer a toast and I haven't seen you."

She was seated at table number 3, three tables away from Lin Xuedong. Hearing Xie Xue's complaint, she looked away and glanced at her, saying, "Mommy, didn't I go to the restroom?"

"Hey, can you please pay attention to what I'm saying?" Xie Xue said angrily, and started lecturing again.

"Those three young men your uncle introduced today, I think they're pretty good. You young people should spend more time together, chat and stuff. Stop being so secretive all the time, what kind of behavior is that?"

"What do you mean by dodging? I was just full and wanted to take a walk to digest my food." She said, rubbing her stomach.

"Fine, fine, you always have so many excuses. I don't care. I think Xiao Zhou is quite suitable for you. Find an opportunity to ask him out, and we'll have a meal and chat with him." Xie Xue gave the order directly.

"Okay, I understand," Lin Lan replied perfunctorily.

Suddenly, a noise came from table number 6. A waiter had accidentally spilled the dessert while serving it.

The perfectly good pear soup had somehow spilled all over Lin Xuedong's lap. It soaked a large area of ​​his trousers, thankfully not hot, but the thick, sticky soup made him very uncomfortable.

The waiter kept apologizing with his head down, and the hotel manager also rushed over, bowing and apologizing as well. The scene was extremely awkward.

"Mr. Lin, why don't you go back to your room and deal with this first?" Zeng Ziyan, who was sitting next to him, said in a low voice, and moved a clean small tablecloth over his soaked trousers.

“Mr. Lin, I have spare clothes in my room, brand new. If you don’t mind, I’ll have Ziyan send them over to you.” Chen Shengfeng chimed in, as he had his own suite at the Junlan Hotel.

"Well, thank you, Chairman Chen. Please excuse me." Lin Xuedong's expression was somewhat displeased.

He has a slight obsession with cleanliness and couldn't stand the dirt on his body at that moment. So he got up straight and strode off the field.
