Jiang se had already sat down, but Liu Ye was still looking down and sizing her up until she called out, ”
“Brother Liu.”
Liu Ye only came to his senses when his gaze landed on his bag. He handed Jiang SE’s bag over.
She thanked him, but Liu Ye was still sizing her up. His expression made it seem like he was meeting her for the first time. Jiang se could not help but laugh.
“Brother Liu, what’s wrong?”
“Sese, have you ever thought that you might not be able to maintain the peace on the surface with Tao cen anymore by doing this tonight?”
Tonight’s big show might even be wonderful for those who saw it with their own eyes.
Tao cen had intentionally raised the price of the manuscript that Jiang se wanted. She had hyped it up to five million before Jiang se could get it. She had initially wanted to scam her, but she did not expect Jiang se to give her such a hot potato in the end.
Although Jiang se did not fall for the trap, anyone with a discerning eye could tell that the two of them were not on good terms.
When Liu Ye said that, Jiang se smiled without saying anything. When she saw his serious expression, she recalled his earlier reminder and said, ”
“In fact, Ms. Tao and I are not friends.” Naturally, he did not need to bother to maintain a fake relationship with Tao cen.
“You’re not afraid of offending her?” Liu Ye raised his eyebrows when he heard the implied meaning in her words. He was obviously a little surprised by her honesty.
Jiang se tilted her head.
“I’m not afraid.” Out of the corner of her eye, she saw mo Anqi secretly gesturing at her with her hand. Jiang se could not help but laugh.
“Because the result will be the same whether I offend them or not.”
In reality, from the moment Xia Chaoqun chose her and stopped working with Tao cen, it was already destined that they could no longer be friends.
In addition, as her popularity rose, she was already a threat to Tao cen. She had also gotten the endorsement advertisement for Elysees, so she was already in a competitive relationship with Tao cen.
Even if she had to swallow her anger and pretend to be deaf and mute, Tao cen might not have wanted to let her off. Tonight’s situation was the best example.
Rather than this, it was better to cut off some.
The look in Liu Ye’s eyes changed a little when he heard her words. For some reason, he turned his head and looked at the other side of the venue.
Many of the managers and assistants of the celebrities were standing in the corner. Xia Chaoqun was standing beside yang Boxi.
There was no bright light in that corner, but Liu Ye could still spot Xia Chaoqun at a glance. She was wearing a black suit, and her tall figure was exceptionally outstanding among the managers.
Xia Chaoqun was slightly tall and didn’t have the slender, Willow-like figure of female celebrities. However, she was able to wear a suit with her own unique style.
She had her hands in her pockets, and even though she didn’t say a word, she still looked cool.
She had accompanied Jiang se to the French Film Festival. At that time, she had kept her hair short and neat. However, the two of them must have been too busy. Her short hair had grown a lot longer. When it reached the back of her ears, she pulled it up, revealing her slightly angular face.
It wasn’t a charming femininity, but it was quite special.
Her calmness and confidence were displayed on her face and in her eyes. Liu Ye had known her for many years and knew how strong her personality was.
She was like steel, the kind that would not turn soft after a hundred temperings. Instead, the more it was tempered, the stronger it would become.
In comparison, Jiang SE’s appearance was completely different from hers. She was more beautiful and was a darling who was born to appear in front of the stage. She received the audience’s applause and flowers.
Liu Ye had always thought that other than her beauty, Xia Chaoqun’s admiration for Jiang se and her full support for her was due to her hard work and progress.
However, he realized that he was wrong.
Jiang SE’s performance tonight proved that no matter how gentle she looked on the outside, she might be the same as Xia Chaoqun deep down. It was just that one was tough on the outside but also tough on the inside, while the other was tough on the inside but was covered in a soft exterior.
He used to treat Jiang se as a cat, but now he realized that he had been wrong.
“I think I understand why Chaoqun likes you.”
Liu Ye said softly. Jiang SE’s lips curled up but she did not say anything else.
After the end of the auction, the rest of the banquet seemed much calmer. However, everyone in the venue was thinking about what had happened earlier. It was just that no one was chatting in front of the organizer and the parties involved in the news of the auction.
After the banquet ended, Xia Chaoqun strode over and arranged for mo Anqi to drive Jiang SE Home.
There might be a large number of media reporters coming to interview Jiang se about tonight’s incident. It was not appropriate for Jiang se to say anything more at this moment.
What she did was far more beautiful than what she said. The opportunity to be attacked by the media reporters should be left to the anxious Tao cen to think of a way to explain.
Jiang se was also aware of the current situation. Hence, she followed Xia Chaoqun’s instructions. After the organizers opened a special passageway, she left with mo Anqi. Xia Chaoqun naturally had her own way of getting out of this. Once she was out of trouble, she would head to Jiang SE’s house to discuss the matter with her.
By the time the reporters realized that Jiang se had left, her car had already left the venue.
Tao cen had been stared at the whole time and could not get away at all.
In addition to tonight’s incident, she had accepted Jiang SE’s ‘five million Yuan for the manuscript’. If she did not say anything, tomorrow’s news headlines would be very interesting.
Therefore, no matter how aggrieved she was, she stayed behind and let the reporters surround her with questions.
It was almost midnight when Jiang se returned home. She received calls from PEI Yi and Feng Zhongliang.
Obviously, the two of them already knew about what happened at the charity banquet.
After consoling PEI Yi and his grandfather, who thought that she had been ‘bullied’, Jiang se removed her makeup and took a shower. Xia Chaoqun was already at her house.
The TV in the living room was already on, and it was showing the interview with Tao cen after the charity dinner.
When Jiang se came out, her assistants looked excited. Xia Chaoqun’s gaze was fixed on the television.
It had to be said that Tao cen’s mental fortitude was very strong. She had been retaliated by Jiang se tonight in front of so many people. She must have been embarrassed. However, when she was surrounded by the reporters, she was very calm. She faced the cameras calmly and with a smile, it was as if the little incident at the auction was not worth mentioning.
She held a large microphone and faced the reporters ‘questions with ease. She sincerely expressed how happy she was when she received Jiang SE’s’ gift ‘that night.
miss Jiang and I are actually very fated. We both chose Galaxy century first, and we were both led by Chaoqun. At the same time, we were able to take part in movies directed by Qie. Now, we have the same interests and hobbies. When we saw Adeus ‘manuscript, we both gave up everything.
