Chapter 1635: Chapter 1635: Bullying Her (3)

“By the way, does Fu Yan know about this? Does he have any solutions?” Su Hongxing’s eyes lit up.

Fu Yan has been immersed in the business world for years; he should be well accustomed to these dirty tricks, right?

“I’ve already reported this matter to President Fu. So far, President Fu hasn’t given any feedback, which means he temporarily doesn’t have a way to deal with Xiao Ji.”

Li Yan’s words left Su Hongxing feeling half-hearted.

If Fu Yan also doesn’t have a solution, she’ll have to step up herself.

She can’t let Jufeng Group compensate such a huge amount for no reason, so, she can only follow Ye Qilan and the Northern Mother. The Northern Mother reconciled with Ye Qilan, so the tofu-dregs project issue of Northern Group was left unsettled.

If she can reach a reconciliation with Xiao Ji, or stall for time until Ye Qilan returns, that could work too.

Does she really have to use her charms on Xiao Ji then? Wouldn’t Ye Qilan strangle her directly when he comes back and finds out?

Thinking about this, she realized it’s the worst strategy.

But she understood that she must attend the two companies’ gathering tonight, in any case. First, hold Xiao Ji steady, buy some time, and then everyone can think of a solution together.

When Li Yan learned that Su Hongxing was going to attend tonight’s gathering, she immediately tried to stop her: “Madam, with such a prestigious status, it’s unnecessary to attend such small gatherings.”

“Anyway, I’m just taking care of the child at home. It’s better to go out for a bit of fun. If you’re worried, you can come with me. Li Yan, it seems you haven’t found a boyfriend yet? You’re not young anymore; perhaps you might meet your destined one at this gathering…”

Su Hongxing’s endless chatter completely left Li Yan speechless.

In the end, Li Yan couldn’t persuade Su Hongxing and accompanied Su Hongxing to the gathering.

As soon as Su Hongxing entered the private room, she saw several familiar faces; weren’t they Qiao Qiao, Liu Qingyin, and Fu Yan?

“Why are you all here?” Su Hongxing instinctively looked at Li Yan, sure that Li Yan had tipped off Fu Yan, and that’s why they all showed up.

Li Yan chuckled and slipped away.

“Sis, I heard there are some tasty treats here, so I rushed over. Sister Qiao said she also wanted to see the world, so I brought her here. As for Fu Yan, you know him, he’s my shadow; wherever I go, he follows.” Liu Qingyin hooked her arm around Su Hongxing’s and smiled brightly.

Su Hongxing lightly patted Liu Qingyin’s head, “You’re such a rascal.”

She raised her eyes and met Xiao Ji’s gaze not far away.

Apparently, Xiao Ji had just arrived as well.

Seeing so many people around her, Su Hongxing was quite restless. Liu Qingyin and the others would never let her interact with Xiao Ji alone, so if she intended to probe Xiao Ji, she’d need their approval.

Xiao Ji had heard beforehand that Su Hongxing would be attending the gathering. Now seeing Su Hongxing, he was naturally ecstatic. Unfortunately, too many people surrounded Su Hongxing.

Eventually, he couldn’t help but step forward, handing Su Hongxing a glass of juice.

Before Su Hongxing could take the juice, Liu Qingyin intercepted it and said both mockingly and defensively, “Who knows if there’s anything suspicious in here. Sis, it’s always good to be cautious.”

Su Hongxing, however, took the juice and drank a couple of sips, saying softly, “Xiao Ji wouldn’t do such a thing to me.”

No matter how bad Xiao Ji became, he wouldn’t harm her.

Xiao Ji didn’t expect Su Hongxing to speak for him. He was both surprised and delighted, “Xingxing…”
