Chapter 92: I’m Worried He Might Get Jealous
That night, a bit earlier.
On the other side of Huai City, within the Xia Family estate, a banquet was being held.
Xia Yubing’s father, Xia Hangqian, as the helmsman of the Xia Yu Group, Huai City’s largest enterprise, had invited dozens of well-known figures in Huai City tonight. Everyone was gathered in the Xia Family estate to talk business and discuss development.
Such a gathering could easily result in verbal agreements for orders worth billions in a single evening.
Inside the Xia Family banquet hall, resplendent crystal chandeliers seemed to coat everything in a faint golden hue. Authentic masterpieces of oil paintings adorned the walls, accompanied by a symphony orchestra playing classical music live.
Entrepreneurs in their splendid tailored formal wear, holding wine glasses, spoke in hushed tones about various deals or exchanged pleasantries with "I’ve long heard of you," getting to know each other.
The scene was somewhat intoxicating, dreamlike, yet in one corner, a discordant note.
Xia Yubing, dressed in a loose-fitting sports jacket, sat lazily by the fruit stand.
Occasionally, she would eat a slice of fruit, but more often than not, she just crossed her slender legs, propped up her chin, and listened to the classical music being performed.
Amongst the nearly one hundred people in the banquet hall, she was dressed the most casually and sat the most informally.
