Chapter 319: Chapter 319: The Abandoned Pauper_1

"When does it start?"

Someone asked.

"It starts tomorrow and the event will last a week, with something exciting every day!"

Zhang Qi said with a smile.

Taking this opportunity to also promote the press conference was a good choice.

"Great, we’ll definitely be there!"

The crowd was just there for the excitement.

And with rewards on offer, why not come?

"Everyone, help get the site ready, the boss is about to arrive. Let’s not burden the old man with everything!"

Zhang Qi called out, and the people from Tiangang immediately threw themselves into the busy work.

Meanwhile, Xiao Chen had already entered the territory of Shencheng City.

However, he didn’t go directly to the conference site. With Ma Wencheng and Zhang Qi there, there were certainly no issues.

After he instructed Ghost Blade and Ziyi to protect Huo Gang and Huo Yutong on their way to the conference.

He secretly took Jiang Meng to the beach at Shenshui Bay.

In June, the Shenshui Bay was bathed in sunshine, with countless beautiful women forming a stunning vista.

"Husband, we’re so busy with work, what are we doing here?"

Jiang Meng said with a wry smile.

"Don’t always think about work. You have so many capable subordinates, and they’re not there to freeload.

We just need to show up at the opening of the press conference.

Having finally come to Shencheng, of course we should enjoy Shenshui Bay.

You used to be a big fan of that star, Yang Liying.

I’ve already inquired.

She’s going to be at Shenshui Bay for a photo shoot today."

Xiao Chen said with a beaming smile.

"That was in the past, these days, when do I have time to chase stars!"

Jiang Meng shook her head and chuckled.

Back in her school days, she was a huge fan of Yang Liying, who was three years her senior.

Not only was Yang Liying good at acting, but she was also a talented singer with a sweet and endearing voice.

At the age of twenty-four, she was already a top domestic star.

She had also won two major accolades in the film industry, making her an accomplished young talent.

But ever since Jiang Meng took over Xinmeng Group, she no longer had room in her heart for these interests.

Every day, her mind was occupied with how the company was doing.

And she had to care for her husband, leaving no time for entertainment.

"That won’t do!"

Xiao Chen shook his head: "I can’t let my wife live a life that’s too tiresome.

Everyone needs to have their own hobbies and leisure time.

Otherwise, life would just be too dull."

"Wow, Yang Liying is here!"

Just then, cries of surprise came from afar. Although this photo shoot was meant to be a secret, not many people knew about it.

But after all, this was Shenshui Bay, which was still teeming with people.

Even though Yang Liying wore sunglasses, they couldn’t hide her radiant beauty.

People recognized her in an instant.

There were numerous bodyguards around Yang Liying, and also a tall woman.

She wasn’t much older, around thirty.

Standing next to Yang Liying, she wasn’t overshadowed at all.

Instead, she exuded a CEO’s aura.

Yang Liying was a star, and the woman was a CEO; it was hard to say who was more captivating.

It can only be said that each had their own merits.

The gazes of the guys were fixed on Yang Liying; they were practically drooling.

But Xiao Chen’s gaze rested on the CEO woman.

"Beautiful, isn’t she?"

Jiang Meng pouted.

"Beautiful!"

Xiao Chen nodded: "But compared to my wife, she lacks a certain kind of purity."

"You’re just good at flattering me!"

Jiang Meng shook her head: "I know her; she’s the chairman of the Guangfu Prefecture Group.

A very influential boss in Guangfu.

Her name is Huo Yingnan!

She’s said to be from the Huo Family of Guangfu!"

"There are many Martial Arts Families in Guangfu, but none avoid the Huo, Huang, and Hong Families!"

"President Huo was the pride of the Huo Family from Guangfu Prefecture."

Xiao Chen said indifferently.

"You know him?"

Jiang Meng detected something in his tone.

"I know him, and, we even had a thing once."

Xiao Chen said, "President Huo once went abroad for business and I saved him.

So there was that kind of a romance between us.

But it didn’t last."

"Why not?"

Jiang Meng asked.

"They minded that I was poor."

Xiao Chen said with self-mockery.

At that time, the Xiao Corporation had already been established and was in fact quite sizable, far larger than the Guangfu Prefecture Group, it’s just that President Huo didn’t know it.

"No taste!"

Jiang Meng wrinkled her nose, put her arm through Xiao Chen’s, and said, "Husband, I should thank her.

For giving up such an excellent man as you and letting me pick up a bargain."

"I should thank her too.

If she hadn’t abandoned me, I might still not know that there’s such an outstanding woman like you in the world."

Xiao Chen smiled.

He was speaking from the heart.

Although he had wanted to repay a favor, he hadn’t felt love for Jiang Meng before.

But now, he had fallen deeply in love with this kind and pure girl.

He really did owe President Huo some thanks.

"It looks like she’s coming over!"

Suddenly, Jiang Meng said in surprise, "Don’t tell me it’s old flames rekindling."

"No way! She must be here to see you!"

Xiao Chen put on sunglasses, lay down on the sun lounger to take a sunbath, and paid no mind to the two people approaching.

"Ms. Jiang Meng, chairman of the Xinmeng Group, comes to my Shencheng City and doesn’t even say hello to me!"

President Huo greeted her cordially with grace, showing no sign of impropriety.

But her words carried an air of domineering arrogance.

"My Shencheng City!"

Just those four words revealed her mindset.

"No way, do I have to report to the Guangfu Prefecture Group when I come to Shencheng City?"

Because of Xiao Chen, Jiang Meng had no good feelings towards President Huo.

On top of that, the other party’s presumptuous words made her retort.

Even though the Guangfu Prefecture Group was incomparable in size to Xinmeng Group — one a great sorcerer, the other a minor witch.

The Xinmeng Group’s current scale was not even a tenth of the Guangfu Prefecture Group.

That was the disparity.

But those who bullied her husband didn’t deserve her kindness; she disliked them.

"Ms. Jiang’s words are quite amusing. It sounds like you have some preconceptions about me."

President Huo frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled.

"No, you’re wrong. I don’t just have no preconceptions against you, I actually have to thank you!"

Jiang Meng said with a smile.

Her words were sincere.

"Thank me?"

President Huo looked confused.

"Thank me for what?"

"Does President Huo still remember, years ago, falling in love with a man and then, finding him too poor, deciding to leave him?"

Jiang Meng asked with a smile.

At these words, President Huo’s complexion changed abruptly, "Ms. Jiang must be joking. I am from the direct line of the Huo Family.

The chairman of the Guangfu Prefecture Group.

How could I carelessly fall in love with a man?

Plus, I’m already married now; such rumors should not be spread carelessly!"

"But the name Xiao Chen, you surely must have heard of it, right?"

Jiang Meng asked with a smile.

Xiao Chen!

President Huo’s heart skipped a beat.

Of course she remembered.

That man saved her, and he was also very gentle.

She truly had been infatuated, and had fallen for that poor man named Xiao Chen.
