The online debate did not break Shen Hanxing’s focus. Some time had passed, and the competition between the east and west development zones had reached its climax. Because of Professor Xu Jinhe’s insistence, Shen Hanxing had been by his side and participated in many meetings during this period. She had a vision that exceeded everyone’s expectations. She dared to think and dared to act more than most people. She put forward many bright points of view, and everyone began to pay more attention to her. After the final proposal was handed in, everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
After the busy period, it was time for the celebration banquet. On the night of the banquet, the styling team came in the morning to give Shen Hanxing and Ji Yan a good styling. This time, it was a very formal banquet. As one of the participants in the West City Development proposal, Shen Hanxing did not choose a gown that highlighted her figure. Instead, she chose a black suit for a lady. The high-waisted suit pants made her long legs look straight. The thin belt outlined her slender waist. Her long hair was tucked behind her ears, revealing a bright and beautiful face. She looked valiant and heroic.
Ji Yan was also wearing a black suit with a dark red handkerchief on his chest. He looked dignified and mysterious, like an indifferent ancient noble.
The two of them had strong auras. They attracted a lot of attention as soon as they entered the venue. Zhuang Yu, who also supported the development of the west side of the city, had a smile on her face. She held Zhuang Hengyu’s arm and came up to greet them. She greeted, “CEO Ji, Mrs. Ji.”
Zhuang Yu took a step forward and held Shen Hanxing’s arm affectionately. Zhuang Yu lowered her voice and said, “Mrs. Ji, you are really amazing. I saw your proposal at Professor Xu Jinhe’s place earlier. It is really-!” She gave her a thumbs up excitedly. After a few months of being in the business world, Zhuang Yu had already learned how to be steady and reliable. However, when she met Shen Hanxing, she could not help but look like a little girl who worshipped her.
Zhuang Yu believed in her own intuition and firmly believed that her judgment was not wrong. The best choice for S City was to develop the west side of the city. For this reason, she did not hesitate to bet on the right to inherit the Zhuang family. As for Shen Hanxing’s appearance, it undoubtedly made Zhuang Yu feel more at ease. Zhuang Yu had an additional anchor to calm the sea and be certain it would work out.
Shen Hanxing smiled and clinked glasses with Zhuang Yu. She said, “It’s Professor Xu Jinhe and the others who did a good job. I only made a small suggestion.”
“You’re too modest!” Zhuang Yu’s eyes sparkled as she lowered her voice, “After reading the proposal, I can’t wait to see the changes in the west side of the city!”
Zhuang Hengyu could not help but laugh when he saw Zhuang Yu’s behavior. He patted her head and said, “You’re already in charge of the project, yet you’re still acting like a child. Aren’t you afraid that Mrs. Ji will laugh at you?”
Zhuang Yu secretly stuck out her tongue.
As Ji Yan’s attending physician, Zhuang Hengyu habitually looked at Ji Yan’s long legs that were wrapped under his suit pants. Then, he raised his cup and said with a smile, “You have recovered quite well, CEO Ji.”
“It’s all because of your brilliant medical skills, Doctor Zhuang,” Ji Yan said plainly. His gaze met Zhuang Hengyu’s, and there was a faint spark.
“CEO Ji, Miss Shen.” As if it was not lively enough, Wei Yong twisted his neck and grinned, revealing his white teeth. “Long time no see.” He did not avoid Ji Yan. His gaze fell directly on Shen Hanxing’s face.
“We just met two days ago, how can it be considered as ‘long time no see’?” Ji Yan’s gaze was slightly cold. “It seems that your memory is not very good, CEO Wei.”
The three men suddenly had a strange atmosphere between them, and each of their gazes contained some kind of instinctive provocation.
“Don’t bother about them,” Zhuang Yu curled her lips and smiled at Shen Hanxing. She continued, “Mrs. Ji, shall I bring you to the side to have a seat?” Shen Hanxing was about to respond when suddenly, a waiter walked past her. The waiter seemed to have lost his footing, and the wine on his tray spilled in Shen Hanxing’s direction.
Shen Hanxing’s eyes flashed. She reacted quickly and turned her body to the side, but the spilled wine still stained her sleeves.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry…” the waiter’s face was pale with fright. He stammered as he bowed and apologized, “I-I wasn’t able to stand properly just now. I’m really sorry…”
“How are you doing your job?” Zhuang Yu could not help but frown. She reprimanded, “Haven’t you attended any training before coming here? What are you thinking about if you don’t pay attention to where you’re stepping during work?” The people attending this banquet were all very important. If the waiter crashed into one of them, the waiter would not be able to afford the compensation.
The waiter’s tears were about to fall as he kept apologizing.
Shen Hanxing frowned slightly as she wiped her wet sleeve with a tissue.
“Why are Mrs. Ji and Miss Zhuang so aggressive?” At this moment, a gentle female voice sounded not far away. Shen Sisi wore a crystal crown and a beautiful white evening gown. She looked like a young princess who had walked out of a fairy tale.
