Chapter 605: Pendant’s Use (2)


Everyone stopped walking and turned around to look at Manager Zhu.


However, Manager Zhu was not looking at anyone from the Wen family. Instead, his attention was on Jian Yiling.


Initially, this girl had not even caught his attention.


However, when she walked past him, he noticed the pendant on her neck.


Upon noticing this, he stared at Jian Yiling for a while. Then, his att.i.tude towards the situation completely changed: “I’m very sorry! I apologize for my actions!”


Then, Manager Zhu bowed in front of Jian Yiling to express his apologies.


“Yiling, do you know him?” Wen Nuan asked her daughter.


Jian Yiling shook her head.


She did not know Manager Zhu. It was her first time coming to Cai Ningxuan.


She also did not know why Manager Zhu reacted like this when he saw her.


“Did you make a mistake?” Jian Yiling asked Manager Zhu.


Manager Zhu smiled and shook his head: “No, no. Definitely not. How should I address you?”


Although Manager Zhu said that he did not make a mistake, he still asked Jian Yiling for her name.


It was obvious that he did not know Jian Yiling. However, he was still treating her with a lot of respect.


“Jian Yiling.”


“Miss Yiling, you do not have to leave. If Mr. Wen Cheng is your friend, he can stay as well. I will consider the matter just now as a misunderstanding.”


This…


Manager Zhu’s sudden change in att.i.tude made the Wen family incredibly confused.


Why did Manager Zhu suddenly change his att.i.tude after he saw Jian Yiling?


What did Jian Yiling do?


“Yiling, what’s going on here?” Wen Cheng asked. His face was filled with questions.


Jian Yiling shook her head. She did not know what was happening either.


Then, Manager Zhu added: “If I had known your ident.i.ty early, I definitely would not have treated you that way.”


Ident.i.ty?


What ident.i.ty?


What ident.i.ty could Jian Yiling possibly have?


Cai Qinyue and Wen Ruo looked at Jian Yiling with amazement.


However, even Jian Yiling did not know the ‘ident.i.ty’ that Manager Zhu was talking about.


Jian Yiling’s eyes were filled with confusion.


Then, Manager Zhu smiled as he said: “Miss Yiling, I hope you forgive me for what just happened. Please forgive me for my rudeness.”


Just now, Wen Cheng was begging Manager Zhu for forgiveness. However, suddenly, Manager Zhu was begging Jian Yiling for forgiveness.


“Are you sure that you didn’t make a mistake?” Jian Yiling asked.


“Definitely not,” Manager Zhu replied smilingly.


Then, Manager Zhu asked his men to invite them back to their seats.


After that, he had someone bring tea and food over to them.


His actions were thoughtful and considerate.


The Wen family was incredibly relieved. They did not get driven out by Cai Ningxuan. Furthermore, they also received unprecedented VIP treatment.


In a short span of minutes, Wen Cheng had experienced a lot of ups and downs.


After Manager Zhu and his men left the private room, Wen Cheng was still struggling to regain his senses.


Wen Nuan was the first to speak up: “Brother, is Manager Zhu usually like this?”


Wen Cheng’s mind was pulled back to reality by his sister’s question.


He shook his head: “This is the first time I’ve seen Manager Zhu treat someone with so much respect…”


Then, Wen Cheng’s gaze fell on Jian Yiling.


What was going on here?


What exactly was his niece’s ‘ident.i.ty’?


Cai Qinyue and Wen Ruo also looked at Jian Yiling.


They were also very puzzled.


Jian Yiling arrived in Beijing less than a month ago.


How could she be involved with this place?


And why did Manager Zhu treat her with so much respect?
