The Fortunate Demoniac Little Village Doctor -
Chapter 200 - 200 199 Entrance
200: Chapter 199: Entrance 200: Chapter 199: Entrance Tonight, Hu Qingdie specifically chose a plunging evening gown that she had never tried before, exposing her proud assets to everyone’s view like a pair of pigeons in flight, so much so that even the valet hurriedly crossed his legs, afraid that any ‘standing attention’ might cost him his job.
“Wowzers!
Is this…
Is this the big beauty chairwoman of Hu Group, Hu Qingdie?
She’s blindingly gorgeous!
So sexy and alluring; just look at that face, she could play Wu Zetian on the spot!
That presence, that aura, damn!
I’ve never seen another like her in my life!”
“True to form for a woman who controls billions, she’d outshine countless female stars on TV in a heartbeat.
Money and power sure do come with confidence!
Just by standing here, she’s on another level!
I heard that all the bigwigs from the group are coming tonight, and normally female guests bring a male companion.
I wonder which corporate mogul is accompanying our Chairwoman Hu here?”
“Come on, as if it would be an outsider; it’s gotta be Xie Huan, Director Xie!
Don’t you know he’s always at odds with Chairwoman Hu because he’s been unsuccessfully chasing after her?
Rumor has it that tonight’s cocktail party isn’t just about them burying the hatchet; it’s also about the two feuding factions making amends.
I bet my bottom dollar that Director Xie will be the one stepping out of the car!”
“…”
The employees of Hu Group invited to the event stood at the entrance of the hotel, gazing in reverence at their untouchable goddess, Chairwoman Hu Qingdie, each one speculating who the man descending from the car might be!
“What’s all this racket about?” Just as the employees craned their necks in anticipation of Xie Huan’s exit from the vehicle, Xie Huan unexpectedly approached from the other side.
“Xie…
Director Xie, it’s not you accompanying the Chairwoman?
Could it be she came alone?” An employee blurted out upon seeing Xie Huan before him, adding for good measure, “It’s crazy how sexy she’s dressed; she should have a man on her arm.”
“Shut your mouths!” Xie Huan’s face turned livid as he glanced toward the stretched Bentley.
Hu Qingdie’s attire ignited a fire in every cell of his body tonight.
He was convinced that gown was meant for him, and tonight he was determined to conquer this lofty woman.
“Click!”
The sound from the other car door was like a frigid thirty-degree weather alert, freezing Xie Huan’s entire being.
He refused to believe another man accompanied Hu Qingdie!
Impossible!
The impeccably tailored Armani suit, a crisp white shirt, and gleaming leather shoes—while most men might make a similar entrance, there’s always someone who stands out in identical attire!
Not all cars on four wheels are budget models; some are Bentleys!
Liu Hun wore a confident smile on his lips as he casually made his way to Hu Qingdie’s side.
It was only today he finally understood why a suit could fetch twenty-eight thousand; wearing one truly didn’t feel the same as wearing something worth twenty-eight.
“You are so handsome,” Hu Qingdie said, her flirtatious tone laced with a hint of proud shyness.
She wanted to compliment Liu Hun but couldn’t put aside her pride, so she opted for English.
“Sweat?
Rest assured, I’m the one who’ll make my opponents sweat,” Liu Hun replied cleverly, not quite grasping her words.
“Pfft!” Hu Qingdie giggled and said, “You’re quite humorous.” Then naturally taking Liu Hun’s arm and tilting her head slightly, she added, “This is etiquette, let’s go!”
Arm in arm with Hu Qingdie, Liu Hun entered the Imperial City Century Hotel under the astounded and nearly eyeball-popping gazes of the Hu Group employees.
“Who is that man?
They’re such a perfect match!
Did you all see?
He’s got dignity and elegance, and he even made our gorgeous Chairwoman laugh!
He must be an heir from some group!”
As Hu Qingdie and Liu Hun headed inside, the bewildered employees snapped out of their daze and started buzzing with discussion like a pot set to boil.
Huang Zishan, in her white evening gown, also stood at the entrance with her mouth agape, taking a long while before she muttered to herself, “Liu Hun?!
It’s really…
okay, this time I admit you’ve stunned me!” Afterward, she hurried toward the hotel.
Meanwhile, Xie Huan, seething amidst the employee chatter, clenched his teeth in ire.
He couldn’t believe it, nor would he admit that Liu Hun was out of his league!
He couldn’t help but roar, “Silence, all of you!
Anyone who gossips further, don’t bother showing up for work tomorrow!”
With that, he intimidated the crowd into silence and, with a huff, walked into the hotel.
Today, he was resolved to trample on Hu Qingdie’s dignity as well as that of the man she’d brought with her.
As one of the industries under the Hu Group, the Imperial City Century Hotel wouldn’t dare neglect their old boss Nature; the entire hotel was emptied and transformed into the exclusive venue for the Hu Group’s reception.
The moment Liu Huyi entered the hotel, he was genuinely taken aback.
From the chandelier above his head to the red carpet under his feet, everything truly lived up to the name “Imperial City.” He thought to himself that someday he would have his own “Empire Imperial City”!
The most important reason Hu Qingdie brought Liu Hun to this event was to help him win the favor of the board of directors.
As soon as the two of them appeared, they stunned everyone with their dazzling entrance, successfully capturing the attention and focus of all present.
Hu Qingdie couldn’t explain why, but today she seemed to really like holding onto Liu Huyi’s arm without letting go.
After introducing him to all the board members, she finally said to him, “You go and have something to eat first.
There’s a wine tasting later; it’s our group’s tradition.
I’m going to get ready.” With that, she let go of Liu Huyi’s arm with a smile.
No sooner had Hu Qingdie left than Liu Hun suddenly felt a light pain in his lower back, and upon turning around quickly…
it was the quirky Huang Zishan.
He couldn’t help but shake his head and laugh, “Hey, for a campus beauty, why do you always appear from behind?”
“As the campus beauty pleases!
What’s it to you!” Huang Zishan lifted her head, and then scrutinized Liu Huyi from head to toe like picking cucumbers.
She then asked with a hint of doubt, “Did you…
put together this outfit yourself?”
“Chairman Hu helped me with it, any problem?” Liu Huyi answered Huang Zishan very honestly.
Often, he really felt that this overly lively campus beauty had one characteristic—she loved to meddle!
“No wonder!
The chairman’s taste is really something!
It seems there’s some truth in saying that every man needs a woman to spruce him up!” With a look of realization, Huang Zishan spoke to Liu Huyi, her eyes shining with both admiration and a bit of a dilemma.
Usually, Liu Huyi gave her a sense of being approachable, with a calm and composed demeanor, but today’s outfit really made him look like a top male model stepping out of a magazine, almost dazzling her.
“I just feel this tie is a bit tight!” Liu Huyi said, reaching to loosen his tie, but Huang Zishan stopped him.
“Don’t fiddle with it!
It’s supposed to feel that way!
Come on!
Let’s go have a drink!
I’ll fill you in on some gossip!” Huang Zishan said, her voice full of excitement as she grabbed Liu Huyi’s arm and pulled him to the side as if she feared other women might target him.
Liu Huyi only felt that when Hu Qingdie had held his arm, it had been like a breeze, her behavior serene.
Now, the Huang Zishan on his arm was like a wild rabbit on the loose.
Huang Zishan dragged Liu Huyi over to a dining table in the corner and before he could say a word, she picked up a piece of pastry with a fork and forcefully stuffed it into his mouth, saying, “Open up!
Eat!”
“What the…
mmm…
it’s really good!” Liu Huyi, tasting the pastry, actually found it to be the most delicious one he had ever eaten in his life, reflecting that whatever the Hu Group, this top financial conglomerate, was involved in was always first-rate and unambiguous.
“Open up!
I feed you, you eat, listen to me,” Huang Zishan was firmly in control of the fork, stuffing food into Liu Huyi’s mouth as she started to gossip, “Let me tell you.
Even though Hu Qingdie is the chairman of the Hu Group, it doesn’t mean she has the final say in everything.
Her father, Hu Jingguang, was the founder of the Hu Group, a legendary figure.
After he passed away, he split his shares in half.”
“It’s really tasty…
So you’re saying Chairman Hu has siblings?” Liu Huyi asked while continuing to eat, finding it difficult to stop with such good food.
“No!
Chairman Hu doesn’t have any siblings.
But she does have a stepmother who is the vice-chairman of the Hu Group, and she has half of the shares,” Huang Zishan continued as she stuffed a piece of mung bean cake into Liu Huyi’s mouth.
“A stepmother?!” Liu Huyi truly hadn’t known about this development.
With a twist of her mouth, Huang Zishan angrily stuffed a large piece of cheesecake into Liu Huyi’s mouth and said, “That’s how men are when they get rich!
You better not end up like that!
That old witch is always at odds with Chairman Hu, messing up the group, leveraging her shares to promote her own family.
Look!
See that bunch of women over there surrounding that guy!”
Following the direction Huang Zishan was pouting, Liu Huyi indeed saw a group of women surrounding a not-too-tall man who although a bit handsome, had an overly pale face, obviously lacking in vitality.
“He is Xie Huan, the executive director of the company and the nephew of that old witch Xie Dan.
At first, he persistently pursued the chairman and upon being rejected, he showed his true colors, opposing the chairman at every turn.
However, I always feel that the old witch won’t make it that simple; she’s definitely plotting for the stocks in the chairman’s hands!” Huang Zishan spoke with resentment.
“Haven’t you just joined the company recently?
How come you seem to know everything?” Liu Huyi asked curiously, clearly not too familiar with the species known as women.
“Hmph!” Huang Zishan said haughtily, lifting her head, “Gossip is a woman’s unique attribute; you just don’t get it!
Right!
The bunch of old guys the chairman introduced you to, each and every one of them is not to be underestimated; some of them are on Xie Huan’s side, and there are a couple of fence-sitters too!
You’d better eat more now!”
Liu Huyi spoke and was again fed a pastry, and he asked Huang Zishan with some perplexity, “Why do you want me to keep eating?”
