Chapter 384 - You're Not Worthy
You know, just a moment ago, she was still questioning Jiang Hao.
But the punch to the face came so quickly that Qin Yun didn't even seem to expect it.
She didn't say much along the way, just blushing and lowering her head, somewhat unsure of what to say.
But fortunately, it seemed that Jiang Hao didn't care about those words she had said before, and didn't mention those things from the beginning to the end, but instead had a smile on his face, as if nothing had happened.
Jiang Hao's action did not make Qin Yun's heart feel half as guilty as it did, but instead she blamed herself even more.
Jiang Hao was her friend, she had questioned and denied him so much, she had really gone too far.
"Jiang Hao," Qin Yun whispered as the two of them walked up the stairs, "I'm sorry about that, I really am."
"Cough cough" Qin Yun was about to speak when Jiang Hao interrupted her with two dry coughs, "Hey hey, it's alright, it's all in the past, let's get going, the banquet will start later."
Before Qin Yun could react, she was already pulled by Jiang Hao up to the first floor.
The first floor of Chu Jiang Pavilion.
It was only when the duo got upstairs that they realised that the space on this first floor was far, far bigger than they had imagined, even more so.
The interior of Chu Jiang Pavilion was not luxurious, one could even call it simple, but there was an atmosphere of majesty in its simplicity.
Especially in the direction of the Chu River, the doorway is wide open, and outside the door is a viewing platform that can accommodate dozens of people.
From that platform, you can look into the distance and see the magnificent waves of the Chu River, as well as the beautiful purple and red colours of the evening sun.
At this moment, many people were standing over there, looking at the beautiful scenery while sighing incessantly.
Amongst the crowd, there was one figure that stood out from the rest.
That person was no other than Wang Jiani.
Obviously for Wang Jiani, who was new to Chu Jiang Pavilion, everything in front of her seemed so new and even very exciting.
She squeezed in the middle of the crowd and kept taking pictures left and right with her own mobile phone, completely disregarding the people beside her, who were already looking at her with disgust.
"Hey, hey, here everyone, have you been here before? This is the top restaurant in Chujiang."
Wang Jiani was taking pictures while showing off to a few of her good friends.
In fact, in the past, with her status, she couldn't come to such occasions.
But recently, since Wang Jiani's family had taken over the top villa renovation project of Haisheng Yipin, the company's fame had risen greatly in Chujiang.
The company's fame in Chujiang has risen tremendously, and Wang Donglin's status in Chujiang has naturally risen as a result, which is why he entered the eyes of You Yun and finally obtained the invitation in Wang Jiani's hands.
The only thing is that Wang Donglin has been personally busy with the renovation of Haisheng Yipin Villa recently, so he had no time to care about any banquet, which is why he gave the invitation to Wang Jiani and asked her to come over by herself.
If Wang Donglin knew that his daughter was not at all conscious of her image on such occasions, but was still able to show off like this, he would probably vomit blood.
But Wang Jiani didn't care about that, she had been filming for a while and still had no intention of stopping.
Just as Wang Jiani was about to take a picture in one direction, the lens froze as soon as it came into focus.
She looked at the two figures appearing on her phone screen and suddenly her face turned gloomy, her mouth muttering under her breath, "Damn, why did he come in? I thought we weren't coming in? How disgusting!"
As she said that, Wang Jiani walked towards Jiang Hao.
In her opinion, Jiang Hao mixing into this kind of occasion was simply an insult to the occasion, and she couldn't agree to it anyway.
What's more, hadn't Jiang Hao just bragged that he had a golden invitation? But when he was at the door, he was too embarrassed to take it out.
In the end, he had followed Qin Yun and mixed in again. This kind of person was really shameless and disgusting.
She hated Jiang Hao so much that she would not give up this opportunity to humiliate him.
With this in mind, Wang Jiani took a step towards Jiang Hao and walked towards him.
At this moment, Jiang Hao, who had just gone upstairs, was standing in the dessert area, preparing to eat something with Qin Yun.
However, he had just picked up a piece of cream cake when he was suddenly knocked off the cake by a hand reaching out from the side.
The cake barley fell to the ground and fell into a heap. Jiang Hao looked a little pained and hurriedly looked up, only to see that beside him, Wang Jiani was looking at himself with an angry face.
"What do you want?" Jiang Hao looked at the other party with great displeasure and said angrily, "I just want to know, are you people finished or not? You want to take charge even if I eat a cake? What the hell do you want?"
At this moment, Qin Yun also looked at Wang Jiani in surprise, and at this moment, she couldn't help but get nervous as soon as she saw her former friend.
Because Qin Yun knew clearly that as soon as this friend of hers appeared, nothing good would happen.
As expected, the moment Wang Jiani opened her mouth, she was all shouting.
"Eating cake? I pooh, do you deserve it?" Wang Jiani said to Jiang Hao with contempt, "What are you, you deserve to eat such a good thing?"
Chapter 385 - What do you mean?
Wang Jiani coldly surveyed Jiang Hao, like she was surveying a thief, "What is this place, don't you know? You're really thick-skinned too, you're still eating cake here as if nothing is wrong, seriously I kind of admire you."
When Qin Yun saw that Wang Jiani was very angry, she quickly stood out and helped Jiang Hao to explain, "Jiani, things are not what you think, listen to me"
"Alright, Qin Yun, do you think I don't know what you want to say? You still want to defend him, right? It's disgusting, a man who only knows how to hide behind women all day long, if it wasn't for Qin Yun, would you be able to come in to a place like this? This is not a place for people like you at all!"
Wang Jiani had sort of vented all her anger towards Jiang Hao this time, she had always seen Jiang Hao in a bad light, and now she had caught a break.
In her mind, how could Jiang Hao have an invitation to such a high-class banquet? He must have foxed his way in again and followed Qin Yun in, what she hated most was this kind of man.
Jiang Hao shook his head and smiled indifferently, "If you say so then so be it, no rebuttal, just be happy."
He knew there was no point in arguing with a woman like Wang Jiani, no amount of talking would change her inner prejudice against herself, it wasn't like she would lose a piece of meat if she thought what she thought, so let her be.
The more Jiang Hao didn't care, the more Wang Jiani became angry, gnashing her teeth, wanting to make Jiang Hao kneel in front of her now.
"Oh I was right, weak hearted isn't it, you say how can there be such a wimpy man like you, not a circle of people you don't hard melt, pheasant even if it flies to the branch, after all is only a pheasant, no matter what it can't become a phoenix."
Qin Yun's face was slightly red, Wang Jiani had been targeting Jiang Hao in her words, which made her a little angry.
"Wang Jiani, I must tell you, Jiang Hao is no pheasant or thief, and he didn't follow me in, on the contrary, I followed him in today."
"And it's still a golden invitation!"
Qin Yun deliberately bit off the golden invitation, originally she didn't believe it either, but it had been personally tested by the security guard and confirmed that it was indeed true.
"Just him? And a golden invitation? Look at the whole crowd, is a stinking loser like Jiang Hao worthy of standing here? Even if he had a golden invitation, it would be stolen from someone else, it's not like Jiang Hao hasn't done this before." Wang Jiani's voice was full of teasing.
Jiang Hao frowned, his face unpleasant: "Wang Jiani, you can eat your meal indiscriminately, but you can't speak indiscriminately, I Jiang Hao act right and sit right, if you dare to speak indiscriminately again don't blame me for being rude to you."
"Oh in front of me still pretending up, you think I don't know what you are? Don't play this game with me, you've done a lot of things like stealing chickens and dogs, don't act with me here!"
The bickering here also attracted the attention of more and more people.
The host of this party, too, was slowly arriving here.
The business of the jewellery shop had just opened, and You Yun was still quite busy these days, so when he heard someone arguing here, he immediately rushed over.
"What's going on here?" You Yun spoke indifferently.
When Wang Jiani took a look at You Yun's arrival, she was even more emboldened, You Yun was the host of this banquet, and she had decided in her mind that Jiang Hao was the one who didn't have an invitation, so it was even more justified for her to scold him.
"Boss You, you've come just in time, I've caught a big bad guy for you this time." Wang Jiani said smugly.
Qin Yun's face was tightened, of course she knew about You Yun, the famous business magnate in Chu Jiang City, if he stepped in Jiang Hao would probably not have a good end today.
Although Jiang Hao had a golden invitation, it was definitely not his, in case he really stole it from someone else, it would be too much to jump into the Yellow River.
On the contrary, Jiang Hao's face was indifferent, not affected in any way.
You Yun came to be interested, "Tell me instead, what's going on."
He had already recognised Jiang Hao and was slightly surprised in his heart, even giving Qin Yun, who was beside Jiang Hao, a couple of extra glances, but he didn't think Jiang Hao had anything to do with the matter at hand.
Wang Jiani looked at Jiang Hao with a cold smile, which seemed to mean "You're finished today", and then said, "As you all know, today is a banquet organised by Mr. Yun, the purpose is to let the upper class people of Chu Jiang get together, so that we can bond together."
The crowd all nodded slightly at his words, this kind of banquet was already unspoken, the high society was concerned about the exchange of resources, so they attached extra importance to socialising, often there could be unexpected gains at such banquets.
"But today, there is someone who is pretending to be an elephant by sticking his nose in a big onion.
When the crowd heard this, they all unconsciously turned their attention to Jiang Hao, although his clothes were also very expensive, but that aura could not be concealed, at first glance, he was just pretending!
So, there was more than a hint of contempt in the crowd's gaze.
"Shouldn't we resolutely resist this kind of character who fakes? Or even tell him to get out, we should jointly block him, so that he has no place in Chu Jiang in the future!"
Wang Jiani finished with a smug smile on her face, she seemed to have already seen Jiang Hao's miserable end in the future.
Qin Yun also panicked, she didn't expect that attending a banquet would lead to such a big issue, and she didn't expect Wang Jiani to be so vicious.
She hurriedly ran to You Yun and said carefully, "Mr. You Yun, there might be some misunderstanding, Jiang Hao is definitely not the kind of person she said, I can guarantee it."
As soon as Wang Jiani saw that all the people present supported her and that she was sure of her victory, her words became more and more rampant, "You guarantee? You and he are nothing but a bunch of peasants, your words can't be trusted either, we must get Jiang Hao out of here today."
"Have you finished your words?"
You Yun flung out coldly.
Wang Jiani froze, this didn't seem quite like what she had imagined.
"Mr. Jiang Hao is a VIP I invited here, one might even say the most important guest! How dare you call him a liar, what exactly do you mean?! Is it possible that you want to deliberately embarrass me, You Yun?" You Yun gritted his teeth and looked coldly at Wang Jiani.
When You Yun said this, the hall was in an uproar, everyone's eyes widened in disbelief, Wang Jiani's face even changed dramatically, how could she have imagined that Jiang Hao actually had a golden invitation, and that it was a guest You Yun had personally invited!
The most important thing is that the person who has been invited by him is not only a person who has been invited by him, but also a person who has been invited by him personally.
Chapter 386 Don't miss it!
You Yun still can't forget now, in the morning Jiang Hao spent 1.88 million on the sapphire pendant without moving a muscle, that calmness, even if he himself traveled north and south and was used to seeing too many famous rich people, he couldn't help but sigh for it.
Now that Wang Jiani had gone against Jiang Hao, You Yun took a glance at Jiang Hao's face and saw that everything was normal, and was only slightly relieved.
This young man was really too mysterious, he had met so many people and seen through so many people, but he could not see through this young man alone.
His appearance was so pure, so simple, no different from an ordinary university student, but the whole person was like a question mark, so inscrutable.
If one really believed that he was just an ordinary college student, I'm afraid that would be the biggest fool of all.
Wang Jiani's face was pale, she couldn't understand how Jiang Hao could possibly know You Yun, and he was also an honoured guest whom You Yun had personally invited.
Had she been wrong from the start?
"Someone, send Miss Wang out. Today's occasion is not suitable for her, take back her invitation and ask her to leave!"
You Yun coldly gave the expulsion order.
His tone seemed to allow no questioning and was separate and resolute.
Even if it was Wang Jiani's dad himself who came today, You Yun would not have changed a thing.
After all, what was the Wang family? Obviously nothing compared to this mysterious young man in front of him, and You Yun would have even less fear of offending the Wang family as a result.
Instead, befriending Jiang Hao was definitely a rather important investment that he had made.
"Jiang Hao, you wait for me, I won't let you go." Wang Jiani's eyes flashed with anger.
She certainly wouldn't give up on this.
Watching a storm gradually settle down, Qin Yun patted her chest and let out a long breath, "I was really scared to death just now, I didn't expect you to know You Yun."
You Yun was quite famous in Chu Jiang, so Qin Yun didn't think that Jiang Hao would know such a person at first, but looking at You Yun's expression, it didn't look like he was faking, not to mention that You Yun didn't have to do that at all.
Jiang Hao laughed heatedly and said, "Coincidence, just a coincidence."
After dealing with Wang Jiani's matter, You Yun also came to Jiang Hao, "Mr Jiang Hao, I'm really sorry to have put you through this, it was my mistake."
Jiang Hao waved his hand, he naturally wouldn't take such trivial matters to heart, "It's alright, it's all in the past."
"Let's go, I'll introduce you to a new friend."
You Yun smiled mysteriously and took the lead in walking forward.
When they reached the inside of the hall, there was a huge white leather sofa with a few people sitting on it, and in the middle was a young man dressed in flamboyant clothes.
You Yun had already reached the young man, "I'm so happy that Young Master Xu is here today, Young Master Xu, I'd like to introduce you to a new friend."
Mr Xu didn't say anything, he just gave a "hmmm".
You Yun smiled politely and continued, "Xu Da Shao, let me introduce you to a friend, Jiang Hao, Jiang Hao, this is Xu Tianlin of the Chujiang Xu family, Xu Da Shao."
"Jiang Hao."
Xu Tianlin whispered the name, seemingly pondering whether there was such a character in Chu Jiang, seemingly not expecting any powerful person with the surname Jiang, and sneered, not even giving Jiang Hao a second glance.
On the contrary, it was Qin Yun beside Jiang Hao that Xu Tianlin looked at a few more times, with a different colour, exposing his mind to the world.
"It's really an honour for me, You Yun, to be able to invite you two today, I've only sent out two golden invitations this time, and they're in your hands, and for both of you to come, You Yun's face is greatly dignified."
As a business tycoon, when has You Yun ever been so lowly, but the two people in front of him were both existences he could not afford to offend, so these words were extremely natural.
Xu Tianlin, is the leader of the younger generation of the Xu family in Chujiang, the Xu family, is the number one family in Chujiang, the strength is unfathomable, if you want to mix in Chujiang, the Xu family is definitely not to be offended.
As for Jiang Hao, You Yun still couldn't see his origin and background clearly, it was precisely this that made him scornful, in You Yun's mind Jiang Hao's status was even above Xu Tianlin!
"Hm?"
Xu Tianlin frowned.
"The other golden invitation you gave to this fellow?"
The dissatisfaction in his tone was undisguised as Xu Tianlin changed his posture, allowing his body to sink completely into the soft sofa.
Only then did he take one more look at Jiang Hao, plain and unassuming, and although the clothes on his body were worth tens of thousands of dollars, astronomical to a normal person, they were nothing more than a pile of rubbish in his eyes.
What kind of person was he? He was the heir of the Chu Jiang Xu family, it was only natural for him to get this golden invitation, but what was this guy, to have the same thing as my Xu Da Shao?
Does he deserve it?
"You're from Chu Jiang?" Xu Tianlin's words carried the flavour of a command that brooked no explanation.
Jiang Hao didn't have a good feeling about this man and didn't bother that he was some Chu Jiang Xu Da Shao, nodding his head lightly without speaking.
Xu Da Shao was instantly furious, no one had ever dared to pretend in front of him since he was a child, this Jiang Hao had a salty face, clearly not putting himself in his eyes, he would have to teach him a lesson later!
"There doesn't seem to be a Jiang family in Chujiang, as far as I know, there are no first-class families in Chujiang with the surname Jiang ah, or have I not been back for too long and Chujiang has completely changed." Xu Tianlin said in a gloomy tone.
Jiang Hao said without being condescending, "I'm just a nobody, so it's normal that Young Master Xu doesn't know me."
The more Jiang Hao said this, the more Xu Tianlin hated him, "Who do you think you are?
You Yun has been in the business for many years and has developed the ability to read people's words. Seeing that there was gradually the smell of gunpowder, he hurriedly said, "The main event of this evening will come soon, that is, the auction in a moment.
The highlight of the banquet hosted by You Yun today was the auction.
After the usual dinner at the front, the crowd all went to an auction hall at the back and the lights were dimmed.
"Jiang Hao, aren't you going to explain to me some of what's really going on?"
As soon as she sat down, Qin Yun's beautiful eyes rippled as she stared at Jiang Hao.
Jiang Hao was so uncomfortable by her stare that he had to say, "I've only had a passing acquaintance with You Yun, and as for that what's-his-name Xu Da Shao, I don't know what's going on."
Xu Tianlin was sitting not far from Jiang Hao and deliberately amplified his voice and said, "I just came back from Europe a few days ago and bought some jewellery casually, it's not expensive, just a few million, this young lady, if you like it, you might as well go to my house and see if there's anything you like."
The person he was talking to was Qin Yun.
Xu Tianlin was trying to give Jiang Hao a downward spiral, letting him know that in front of him, Jiang Hao was simply a small player.
Before Qin Yun could say anything, Jiang Hao refused very stiffly, "Thank you for your kindness, if she wants it, I will naturally buy it for her, so I don't need to bother you."
You Yun's eyes moved and suddenly said, "What a coincidence for the two of you, I have a world class jewel here today, I have seen so many jewels, but I have never seen such a good one, you two don't want to miss it!"
