“After tonight, your ident.i.ty will probably be exposed!”

As soon as Jian Ai sat down, Chen Lei walked over with a gla.s.s of wine and looked at Jian Ai teasingly.

Jian Ai smiled indifferently. “Uncle Chen, don’t joke about me. My ident.i.ty is not a secret. Otherwise, Mr. Lu wouldn’t have found out, right?”

Chen Lei nodded and said, “Uncle Chen means that after tonight’s c.o.c.ktail party, you can be considered a famous person in the real estate industry in Baiyun City. You can’t hide behind others in the future.”

As he spoke, Chen Lei sat beside Jian Ai and gave her a meaningful smile.

Jian Ai was stunned for a moment before her heart warmed. Although Chen Lei didn’t say it, she could tell the meaning behind his words.

As a young girl running a company, inevitably, people would be jealous and calculative. Previously, when she hid behind Bai Zhou, perhaps some people would have some scruples. However, now that everyone knew that the CEO of East Sea Real Estate was an underage girl, they would probably reach out to her with some thoughts and dirty hands they shouldn’t have.

“I’m always prepared.” Jian Ai smiled calmly and looked at Chen Lei. “Thank you for your concern, Uncle Chen. However, the business world is like a battlefield. Even if I keep hiding behind Bai Zhou, what should happen will still happen. East Sea Real Estate’s development is like a hot knife through b.u.t.ter now. I’m afraid it has long become a thorn in many people’s side.”

As soon as she finished speaking, Jian Ai couldn’t help but look around the c.o.c.ktail party and sigh softly. “Who can easily see through others’ ulterior motives through their smiles? Even if they do, they won’t expose them!”

Jian Ai’s words made Chen Lei raise his eyebrows. He had understood Jian Ai’s sarcasm.

She was talking about the reason Lu Youcai invited her to today’s c.o.c.ktail party.

“Uncle Chen is relieved to see you so vigilant.” Chen Lei smiled and raised his gla.s.s to Jian Ai.

The two of them clinked gla.s.ses and took a sip.

Not long after, people who knew Jian Ai’s ident.i.ty couldn’t help but talk to her. Jian Ai came prepared. She took out a name card from her pocket and exchanged it with everyone. From time to time, she had to deal with these people who were older than her flattering her. They said things like ‘I didn’t expect CEO Jian to be so young.’

Whether it was real or fake, she did not care. Everyone had a goal, and Jian Ai was no exception. If she could expand her connections through this c.o.c.ktail party, she would have another choice in the future.

It was easier to walk with more friends!

Not long after, Jian Ai drank a lot. After dealing with the last person, she quickly put down her gla.s.s and went to the bathroom.

Jian Ai didn’t notice that someone had suddenly turned out from the other side.

Almost subconsciously, the two of them stopped in their tracks at the same time. Unexpectedly, there was some water left on the ground. As the other party stopped, his feet suddenly slipped, and he subconsciously leaned back.

Seeing this, Jian Ai quickly grabbed the other party’s wrist.

The person’s body immediately stopped in mid-air. Then, Jian Ai pulled him back.

Due to inertia, the person almost pounced on Jian Ai when he bounced back. Jian Ai raised her hand and quickly helped stabilize the other party’s body.

The entire action seemed fancy, but it only happened for a moment. The other party was still shocked and confused.

“Are you okay? Did you hurt your waist?” Jian Ai asked with concern. Only then did she see the other party’s appearance.

The other party looked to be in his twenties. He had a very short crew cut, but it was because of this that his handsome facial features were completely revealed in front of people. He had thick eyebrows, starry eyes, a tall and bright nose bridge, distinct lips, and deep cheekbones. He had two small and fair ears, and he had a sparkling diamond earring on his left earlobe.

His skin was fair and translucent. Even at such a close distance, Jian Ai could not see the pores on his face. This boy’s temperament differed from the boys Jian Ai had seen before.

Yu Xiaoran came back to his senses. His gaze wandered for a moment before landing on Jian Ai. Then, he slowly smiled and said, “You’re so strong!”

As he spoke, Yu Xiaoran’s eyes were as bright as stars. Coupled with the evil smile on his lips, he immediately became lively.

Jian Ai: “…”

Jian Ai didn’t expect the other party to say this. She paused for a moment and said, “If I didn’t have such strength, the back of your head would have hit the ground.”

“Heh…” Yu Xiaoran smiled and scratched his head in embarra.s.sment. “I’m sorry. I was in a hurry and didn’t notice, so I almost b.u.mped into you. Are you okay?”

Jian Ai shook her head. “It’s fine. I didn’t notice. You don’t have to apologize.”

Yu Xiaoran’s gaze landed on Jian Ai again. Even though Jian Ai was not short and was wearing a fitting suit, there was still a trace of interest in Yu Xiaoran’s eyes.

Just as she was about to say something, a gorgeously dressed figure suddenly rushed up from the other side and pounced on Yu Xiaoran.

“Brother Xiaoran!”

A delicate cry followed.

Yu Xiaoran was caught off guard by the impact and moved two steps to the side before stabilizing his body. He supported Lu Qiaoqiao’s body with both hands and smiled at the same time. As soon as he opened his mouth, he mumbled, “Slow down. There’s water on the ground!”

Lu Qiaoqiao held Yu Xiaoran’s arm and pressed half her body against his. She immediately raised her pretty face and pouted. “I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Did you hide on purpose?”

When Yu Xiaoran heard this, he narrowed his eyes in amus.e.m.e.nt. “I didn’t. I just went to the bathroom and was about to look for you.”

As if subconsciously, when Yu Xiaoran was talking to Lu Qiaoqiao, he looked up at Jian Ai.

Jian Ai’s gaze landed on Lu Qiaoqiao. Her memory had always been good, and it had only happened recently, so she recognized Lu Qiaoqiao the moment she saw her.

Wasn’t this the rich girl who forced her to give up her cufflinks at Hongfan Kata that day?

She could meet her in such a place.

At this moment, Lu Qiaoqiao also felt Yu Xiaoran’s gaze. She couldn’t help but turn around and meet Jian Ai’s gaze in midair.

While she was stunned, Lu Qiaoqiao quickly recognized Jian Ai in front of her. She couldn’t help but open her mouth in surprise. Then, her expression changed. She looked at Jian Ai with anger and displeasure and said, “Why is it you? Why are you here?”
