Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Wen Xinya was wearing an off-white-colored maxi gown with mid-length sleeves. The exquisite and complicated skirting of radiant red peonies radiated a majestic glow and graceful beauty with each of her movements.
The bareback design exposed her elegantly gorgeous b.u.t.terfly bones. From her shoulders, a sheer red cape flowed like water to the skirting touching the floor, accentuating the attractiveness of her exposed back which seemed as blurry as the moon’s reflection in the water.
Just now, the banquet hall’s huge screen played the program that she partic.i.p.ated in. Her composure and wisdom had earned the praises of many. Her majestic appearance now caused a stir in the banquet hall.
The reporters swarmed at her, surrounding her as the flashes and cameras pointed at her.
Surrounded by the reporters, Wen Xinya walked across the entire banquet hall and slowly went on stage.
“The past ten years saw Lanxin Company keeping to our philosophy of products made with a conscience for all to use without worry and weathering the market’s challenges as well as the major crisis of acquisition by external investors as we strode towards magnificence. Today, I’d like to especially thank the people and consumers who have been supporting Lanxin Company. All of you have also seen the growth and transformation of Lanxin Company.”
Before her was a hall filled with people dressed to the nines and extravagance.
Behind her was a huge screen showing clips of Lanxin Company’s history, the sheer size of Lanxin Industrial Park, their staff hard at work, as well as their determination in protecting local brands when faced with acquisition by external investors.
Wen Xinya smiled. “I’d like to announce that Lanxin Company is officially listed!”
The slightly hoa.r.s.e and seductive Bella-style voice with a tinge of agitation suddenly rang in the banquet hall like thunder.
“Clap clap clap—”
Thunderous applause echoed through the banquet hall.
Especially the staff of Lanxin Company—some were in tears of joy, some in a mutual embrace, while the others cheered without a care about the people around them.
Such a scene caused tears to well up in Wen Xinya’s eyes as she ceased the enthusiasm of the hall. “After Lanxin Company is listed, we’ll upgrade the recipes and packaging of all our products which will maintain their current prices. When consumers buy our new products, we’ll be giving out our old products with a discount or for free until we give out all our current stocks.”
The crowd broke into a commotion as soon as she finished speaking.
Lanxin Company had announced the data of its products, which caused its product statements to be revealed. Although T-K Corporation had paid a painful price due to this, the leakage of the formula of its products still became Lanxin Company’s issue.
Now, as Lanxin Company got listed, to announce an upgrade of formulas was plainly saying that they were changing their formulas. This act was sufficient to address the company’s only weakness after getting listed, and everyone could see the glory of Lanxin Company after it got listed.
However, that was not all.
Shortly after, Wen Xinya threw another ma.s.sive bomb at everyone present. “Not long ago, Lanxin Company has reached an agreement to cooperate with the representative of the mysterious tyc.o.o.n, Xiasi Group, who’ll possess 30% of Lanxin Company and be one of our shareholders.”
The news shook the entire banquet hall.
Who didn’t know of Xiasi Group?
Among the five major tyc.o.o.ns in the world, Xiasi Group was the most mysterious and as such, it had always been high up and admired by people from afar.
Everyone knew that it was the only Chinese business among the five major tyc.o.o.ns in the world.
Wen Xinya ignored the tremors that she had sent to the ground. “The celebratory banquet today, besides celebrating Lanxin Company’s smooth process of getting listed, is also the signing ceremony for Xiasi Group to enter Lanxin Company as a shareholder.”
Her dark and quiet eyes landed on Si Yiyan’s silver-white suit at a corner of the banquet hall. The red peony in faded ink on his left chest was in a beautiful and vintage color, which made him look even more effortlessly elegant.
Si Yiyan’s sharp gaze cut through the seemingly long distance across the banquet hall and locked onto her eyes in a shockingly hazy manner.
Little girl actually even dared to tease him!
It seemed like he had been too lenient with her recently.
Standing on the podium, as Wen Xinya felt Si Yiyan’s sharp gaze, she couldn’t help but feel slightly guilty. She looked at him with a pa.s.sionate gaze as she made the announcement word by word.
“Welcome Xiasi Group as a shareholder.”
The six words imploded in his mind like thunder. Even the calm Si Yiyan with shocking self-restraint couldn’t help but instantly become agitated.
The woman who belonged to him used said to him in the gentlest, proudest, and most seductive manner, “Welcome Xiasi Group as a shareholder!”
She had used her own way to announce to the world, opening herself up in front of everyone, professing her love for him in a subtle manner.
They were separated by countless people in the banquet hall.
However, their gazes were locked pa.s.sionately.
Gu Yuexi, Gu Yuehan, Xu Xianghu, and even Yueze’s meaningful gazes peeped at their own boss like torchlights.
Gu Yuexi looked at his own boss with a half-smile. “Really brazen!”
He thought that he vaguely knew why Rex was so persistent about this woman.
Yueze touched his chin gently with a mischievous look in his eyes and smiled totally like a cunning old fox. “Why do you guys think Sis-in-law emphasized ‘welcome Xiasi Group as a shareholder’ in her announcement of the signing ceremony?”
Saying that he looked at his boss in a meaningful manner.
Xu Xianghu hurriedly said, “I know, I know—Sis-in-law is professing her love for our boss in front of the world.”
The few of them couldn’t help but laugh—it was rare that Xu Xianghu was smart.
Si Yiyan glanced at the few of them, giving them an obvious warning.
However, obviously, his warning right now wasn’t threatening at all. Due to a certain woman’s intentional setup, at this point, he had lost all of his power in front of his subordinates.
Si Yiyan’s gaze landed on Gu Yuehan. “Aren’t you going to explain?”
It had long been decided that Xiasi Group would enter Lanxin Company as a shareholder. However, he didn’t know that today was the signing ceremony. Obviously, his woman and subordinate had kept him in the dark.
Gu Yuehan said with a straight face, “It was Sis-in-law who suggested the signing ceremony to be changed to tonight. She also instructed us not to tell you, saying that she wanted to give you a surprise.”
In order to make arrangements for tonight’s signing ceremony, Sis-in-law had put in a lot of hard work.
Si Yiyan’s face couldn’t help but darken. “Since when did all of you become her subordinates?”
Although he was touched by this woman’s open profession of her love for him, it had made him lose his influence over his subordinates.
The few of them tugged at each other.
Gu Yuexi and the rest held back their laughter. Even Xu Xianghu who was all brawns with no brains knew to suck up to Sis-in-law—why wouldn’t they?
Si Yiyan naturally understood what they were trying to express. Bearing with the pulsating veins on his forehead, he said, “Did your Sis-in-law tell you guys what’s the outcome of keeping me in the dark? If she didn’t, come that time, will she ensure that you guys don’t get punished?”
The few of them looked at each other!
“d.a.m.n, we’ve been tricked by Sis-in-law!”
