Chapter 251: Chapter 256: Stay if You Should, Roll if You Must (6)

The executives of ES immediately stood up to greet Chen Wanru. Chen Wanru responded with grace and generosity, without a trace of pretension.

Witnessing such a Chen Wanru, Ling Momo couldn’t help but secretly admire her from the bottom of her heart. A leading sister was indeed a leading sister, exuding a demeanor that revealed two words at every turn—superstar.

Ling Momo knew that this demeanor was the result of ten years of struggle and tempering in the entertainment circle, which had solidified into a formidable aura.

With Chen Wanru’s arrival, everyone had come together, and they all took their seats. Li Dao then gestured for the waiters to serve the dishes.

The cuisine was royal court food.

A table full of colorful and diverse dishes with names that were also extremely elegant and affluent, such as Concubine’s Delight, Dragon and Phoenix Auspiciousness, Phoenix Tail Fish Fin, Red Plum Pearl Fragrance, Golden Crispy Sparrow, Ruyi Roll, Four Happiness Dumplings...

Li Dao was naturally the first to speak, "Everyone here dining together is the future hope of our ES, even though there were some unpleasantness a few days ago, after this meal, we are all friends!"

While saying this, Li Dao raised his glass, and naturally everyone else raised theirs as well, exchanging polite words.

After three rounds of drinks, everyone gradually loosened up.

"Chenxi, Niange, what you did was somewhat inappropriate. The words spoken at the press conference were indeed inconsiderate. If it weren’t for Wanru’s timely arrival, the consequences would have been unimaginable! Now that we are sitting together for a meal, let’s not dwell too much on past events. Chenxi, you should offer a toast to Sister Wanru and Momo to express your thanks and apologize," Li Dao said, squeezing out official-sounding words while subtly winking at Jian Chenxi.

Jian Chenxi was always good at networking, most suited for the entertainment circle, understanding how to use her strengths to defuse the disadvantages before her. She knew how to speak to different people in different ways, was tactful, and also knew the importance of patience, as well as the adage that ’revenge is a dish best served cold.’ Even if she was reluctant at heart, she still happily went along with Li Dao’s play.

Jian Chenxi immediately stood up, poured a cup of wine personally for Chen Wanru and Ling Momo, then delivered it to them with a full smile on her face and a tone as gentle as water, "Sister Wanru, Momo, it was truly my fault for those things. I was thoughtless, and I am so grateful that Sister Wanru arrived just in time to prevent me from making a big mistake. As for Momo, I indeed made those remarks to save my own face, not intentionally, so I hope you won’t mind."

Jian Chenxi spoke very beautifully.

Everyone present nodded along and echoed Jian Chenxi’s words.

Ling Momo, Chen Wanru, Jian Chenxi, and Lu Niange all knew the true circumstances, but in such an occasion, it was not appropriate to argue about anything.

Moreover, Jian Chenxi played the good person so well, Ling Momo thought that if she were too persistent, she would also appear ungracious, so she took Chen Wanru’s wine glass with a smile, emulating her, and spoke openly, "Sister Chenxi, you are too kind. How could I mind that incident!"

Chen Wanru didn’t speak, simply lazily taking the wine glass, her red lips curving slightly. She lifted her glass to Jian Chenxi and brought it to her lips, sniffing lightly, Chen Wanru frowned slightly, raised her eyes, and gave Jian Chenxi a look that was neither light nor heavy.
