On Zhuo Yu's birthday, Zhuo Shiwen held a birthday banquet for his youngest daughter, inviting relatives and friends of the Zhuo family and the senior management of Zhuo's Group to attend, and business celebrities from all over the world will naturally not miss it.

Today's protagonist is not Zhuo Meng, she doesn't have to dress up as a celebrity lady to go to the VIP at the reception, she doesn't like to be lively, she simply dresses up, she is really not outstanding among the glamorous celebrities. Finding a quiet place, she watched coldly at the extravagance of this gorgeous banquet.
Outside the Zhuo family's villa, a black sedan slowly drove into the banquet site.
The waiter who received the guests saw a famous car coming in, and trotted forward to open the door for the owner. The man got out of the car with a black leather shoe on the ground, and looked directly at the well-dressed people in the venue with a slightly confident smile, his domineering spirit could always make people feel majesty and fear even if it was not shown on his face.
Zhuo Meng, who was sitting in the pavilion, looked at this belated guest from a distance, and had to say that he was good-looking, compared to Miyano's elegance, he was much more domineering, if Miyano was a literati, and he could definitely be regarded as a representative of the samurai.
Jiang Chufan inadvertently turned his head sideways and met Zhuo Meng's unscrupulous gaze to explore him, he was slightly stunned but not disgusted, but smiled generously at her, his smile made Zhuo Meng feel a little embarrassed. Turning her head away, she dodged his gaze. He didn't stay where he was for long, he withdrew his gaze, and he strode into the venue.
"Jiang Shao......"
As soon as Jiang Chufan entered the main hall, he became the focus of everyone, and Zhuo Shiwen was no exception, seeing him, Zhuo Shiwen hurriedly ended the topic of talking to others and greeted him, he naturally likes to make friends with such a young talent, not to mention that Zhuo's Group and Jiufeng International still have a big cooperation case to be carried out.
"Chairman Zhuo."
The two hands are shaken, and both of them are masked politeness.
"Today is Zhuo Dong's daughter's birthday, and I'm still late, I really shouldn't be."
"Where is this ......?"
Zhuo Shiwen smiled, and he didn't use his compliments, but he had to pay them back.
"Jiang Shao can appreciate his face and come to the cold house, which is already full of brilliance, and he can't afford to ask for anything else."
Jiang Chufan naturally won't really believe this kind of nonsense, but he can't refuse to expose it, the first thing everyone has to learn in the life of the shopping mall is to put on a false mask. He smiled in response, and turned his gaze to the young girl standing beside Zhuo Shiwen.
"Presumably, this is Zhuo Dong's daughter, Miss Zhuo Yu."
Being noticed by such an excellent person, even an outgoing girl like Zhuo Yu would feel shy and blush. Turning his head sideways and seeing his daughter's shy appearance, Zhuo Shiwen smiled even more happily, and when he talked to Jiang Chufan, he lost a little bit of life.
"Yes, I forgot to introduce Jiang Shao."
As he spoke, he formally introduced the two young men to each other.
"This is my youngest daughter Zhuo Yu, today's birthday star...... Zhuo Yu, this is the executive of Jiufeng International, Changjiang Chu Fan, and the seniors in the mall can call him Chu Shao's character. ā
Jiang Chufan smiled at Zhuo Shiwen's ridicule, stretched out his hand to Zhuo Yu, and congratulated him very gentlemanly.
"Miss Zhuo, happy birthday."
"Thank you."
Zhuo Yu also generously shook hands with him and thanked him, but his face still couldn't help but show a shy peach. He politely returned the salute, and when he looked at Zhuo Shiwen, he praised his daughter with flattery.
"Zhuo Dong is really blessed, he has such a peugeot daughter."
"Huh...... Jiang Shao has won the prize."
In front of the public, Zhuo Shiwen did not hide his happiness, but he still gave in modestly. Zhuo Yu was also very happy, and looked at Jiang Chufan with a little more affection.
"Zhuo Yu, Dad is going to greet the other guests, Jiang Shao will hand it over to you, you can't snub people, do you know?"
"Got it, Dad."
It was the first time that Zhuo Yu answered so obediently in front of his father, and this performance couldn't help but make Zhuo Shiwen feel like teasing her.
"Look at my daughter, she's so well-behaved now......"
Zhuo Yu looked at Jiang Chufan's smiling face, pulled Zhuo Shiwen's arm, and she called him in embarrassment.
"Dad......"
"Okay, good, good, I won't say it...... Jiang Shao, you can do it yourself, I will be lost first. ā
"Okay."
Jiang Chufan readily agreed. When Zhuo Shiwen left, and Zhuo Yu faced Jiang Chufan alone, who was a whole head taller than her, the little girl's shyness became more and more intense on her face.
"Miss Zhuo, aren't you going to take me to visit your home?"
Jiang Chufan didn't want to be stuck here playing innocent love with a little girl, so he casually found an excuse to walk around.
"Of course...... That's as it should be. ā
Zhuo Yu smiled and bent her eyes, since he opened his mouth to find a topic, she was happy to see it.
ā¦ā¦
"This is my favorite place, standing here I can see the most beautiful view of the Zhuo family."
They walked to the platform garden of the Zhuo family's main house, Jiang Chufan was holding a glass of strong brandy, and Zhuo Yu was holding a cocktail, she stood beside him and enthusiastically introduced him to the Zhuo family's proudest place.
Taking a sip of the spirits, Jiang Chufan overlooked the scenery of the Xia family's garden, and occasionally echoed her words.
"Yes, the view from here is indeed beautiful."
Although he casually agreed, Zhuo Yu also thought it was a compliment, so she was even more proud of her vision and felt proud. Leaning against the balcony fence, she looked up and enjoyed the evening breeze. As if thinking of something, she turned to him and asked.
"Jiang Shao can support a consortium as big as Jiufeng International at such a young age, I think your experience must be very exciting, I don't know if I have the honor to listen to your story, so that I can learn from this little girl who has not yet been born."
This question is a bit like a question asked by the paparazzi, but it was asked by a beautiful woman, and he has to be a different matter. He chewed the taste of wine in his mouth, looked at Zhuo Yu, and asked a question about the bull's head not being in the horse's mouth.
"Am I still young?"
Zhuo Yu thought for a moment.
"Hmm...... If you are promising in the business world, you are young. ā
She replied, he smiled, and looked at the flower garden downstairs, where he simply recounted his experience.
"To be honest, I don't have any special experience, I want to be famous and profiting like other businessmen, but I'm just more domineering."
"Overbearing?"
Zhuo Yu didn't understand, isn't domineering every businessman there, what's different about him? Jiang Chufan also knew that she didn't understand, and he didn't want to explain more, so he just let her guess by herself. In the flower garden, a white shadow suddenly moved, and it flickered in front of his eyes like a white light.
It's her!
"Who is she?"
