Chapter 233: Real Identity??
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
As the current head honcho of Shang Corporation, Simiao’s appearance naturally attracted a lot of attention, especially since he had never brought a date to any event before. Hence, his appearance today was very eye-catching.
Everyone was speculating on the identity of the woman with Simiao.
“Mr. Shang, long time no see!”
“Mr. Zhou, long time no see!”
“You’ve been really radiant recently! This beautiful lady with you is…”
“She is…” From the corner of his eye, he saw Zhuang Meiqi looking at them.
Simiao snaked an arm around Jian Dan’s waist and gazed at her dotingly. “My fiancee, Jian Dan!”
“So you’re ATr. Shang’s fiancee? Nice to meet you!”
Upon hearing Simiao’s words, more people gathered and exchanged pleasantries of complimenting them as a match made in heaven.
Naturally, toasting was inevitable… “I’m sorry, Jian Jian doesn’t know how to drink. I’ll drink on her behalf.” Simiao took Jian Dan’s wine glass without hesitation and drank it…
“Mr. Shang is really good to his fiancee!”
Another wave of praise swept over him…
Jian Dan rarely wore high heels. Since it was her first time wearing such high heels today and because it was a new pair of shoes, Jian Dan was suffering from shoe bite. She was in great pain and was about to lose her balance.
Simiao quickly noticed her abnormality. “Does your feet hurt?”
Jian Dan frowned slightly and nodded.
“I’m sorry, everyone. My fiancee isn’t feeling well. 1 need to help her over there to rest.”
“Sure, sure!”
Simiao helped Jian Dan to sit in a corner. He squatted and gently took off her shoes. He realized that the back of her ankles were blistered and the shoes were stained with blood. He frowned and a trace of worry flashed across his eyes. “Wait for me to come back!” He stood up and left.
Jian Dan could only sit there alone and wait for him to come back…
How could Jian Dan resist the temptation to eat the delicacies on this table?!
“Well, well… Who do we have here?”
Jian Dan looked up and saw that the person in front of her was Shen Jiaqi…
Why did she feel like she would bump into her everywhere she went recently?
She bumped into her at the market, at the class reunion, and even at a ball. Jian Dan seriously suspected that Shen Jiaqi had been following her!
During the class reunion, she held back her anger because there were so many classmates around. However, it was different today. “Why? Did you sneak in to hook up with a rich guy?”
Jian Dan could not be bothered with her. She turned her gaze elsewhere and continued eating.
“Rich people are all very demanding. They won’t take a fancy to just any Tom, Dick, or Harry.”
“Isn’t this a high-class ball? Why are there flies? So noisy!” Jian Dan dug her ears and said impatiently.
“How dare you scold me? Do you know that my boyfriend is the organizer of this ball? As long as I say the word, you will be thrown out immediately.” Shen Jiaqi raised her chin in arrogance.
“Why is it still here?” Jian Dan waved her hand around and pretended to swat the fly.
“Fine! Security!”
Hearing Shen Jiaqi’s holler, two security guards walked over. “Miss Shen, what’s the matter?”
“This woman does not have the appropriate attire. She must have sneaked in when no one was paying attention. Throw her out.” Shen Jiaqi crossed her arms.
“Miss Shen, our ball is strictly guarded. Nobody can sneak in.”
“Why? My words don’t count anymore? Looks like you don’t want this job anymore!”
Shen Jiaqi threatened.
“Alright. We understand, Miss Shen!
“I’m sorry, Miss. Please leave!”
The two security guards made a “this way, please” gesture to Jian Dan.
“Are you guys stupid? I told you to throw her out, not invite her out. Don’t you understand?”
“What happened?” Just then, Simiao returned and asked when he saw Jian Dan surrounded by people.
“Simiao… She wants to throw me out,” Jian Dan said slowly.
“Is that so?” Simiao looked at Shen Jiaqi.
This was the first time Jian Dan had seen such an expression on Simiao’s face. She finally believed that this man was the head of the Shang family.
Zhuang Meiqi had been paying attention to the situation here, so she immediately walked over. “What happened?”
“Miss Zhuang, is this how the Zhuang family treats their guests?”
“What’s going on?” Zhuang Meiqi had no idea what was going on, so she asked the security guard beside her.
The security guard briefly recounted what had just happened…
“Meiqi, she was the one who started it!”
Oh! Playing the blame game, huh?
“1 hope that Miss Zhuang can give me an explanation. Not everyone can cross my woman!”
“Don’t worry, Mr. Shang. 1’11 definitely give you a satisfactory answer.”
“Security, throw Shen Jiaqi out.”
“Meiqi, you can’t do this to me. I’m Zhijie’s woman.” Shen Jiaqi pulled Zhuang Meiqi’s arm and said.
“Do you think you’re worthy of being my brother’s woman? You’re just a plaything in my brother’s bed. When my brother’s novelty wears off, who do you think you are?”
“If my brother knows that you are so blind to offend Mr. Shang’s fiancee, how do you think he would deal with you?”
“What? You’re saying that she’s…” Shen Jiaqi looked at Jian Dan in disbelief and pointed at her with a trembling hand. “She’s the fiancee of Shang Simiao of Shang Corporation?” She asked resentfully. “Impossible, impossible! How is that possible?”
When the security guards dragged Shen Jiaqi out, she was still shaking her head and repeating that it was impossible.
“Mr. Shang, are you satisfied with how I handled it?”
“I hope there won’t be a next time.” After Simiao said this coldly, he squatted to put on the shoes that he had been holding in his hand since just now. His actions of putting on the shoes were very gentle.
When Simiao put on Jian Dan’s shoes, Jian Dan felt very uncomfortable.
However, Zhuang Meiqi was watching from the side, so she could not show her discomfort.
In order not to let Zhuang Meiqi see through them, Jian Dan could only pretend Simiao was Chu Liyuan because only then could she be natural about it.
After Simiao put on Jian Dan’s shoes, he said tenderly, “There. Now, your feet won’t hurt anymore!”
“Mr. Shang, you really dote on your fiancee. I won’t disturb the two of you anymore. Excuse me!”
Only then did Zhuang Meiqi leave with her men.
Looking at Zhuang Meiqi’s back view as she left, Jian Dan heaved a sigh of relief. “Simiao, you don’t have to do this.” Jian Dan felt that Simiao seemed to have sacrificed a little too much for this act!
“It can’t be helped. This is my persona now!”
Looking at Simiao’s serious expression, Jian Dan’s lips curled up..
