Chapter 505
505 I want to be your woman in broad daylight!
Leng Yejin picked up a glass of wine and swirled it. Yin Zhan, I heard that your achievements in the two months you took office have exceeded the last Secretary of State’s. You have customized framework policies for Iraq. Even the actions of Syria and Kerry have received high praise from experts. Congratulations, your achievements are good.
Yin Zhan clinked his glass with his and said, ” “Same to you.”
Even though Yin Zhan was a few years older than Leng Yejin, there was a time when they were the best friends in the circle. Hence, when it came to knowing each other’s background, no one knew each other better than they did. They could easily guess each other’s motives and intentions when they made any move.
It was just that his friend was in two different parties and had different political standpoints. Now, they were getting further and further away from each other. After the last presidential election, their relationship had deteriorated to the extreme, and they were now real enemies.
But wasn’t there a saying that the person who was most familiar with you was not your friend, but your enemy?
The two of them raised their cups and smiled at each other.
After everyone took their seats, the lights dimmed.
Tong Lu heard her phone vibrating. She took it out and saw that it was Kamie who wanted to know what happened at the charity banquet. She was eager to get first-hand information. Tong Lu decided to be a spy and weaved a text message to tell Kamie about the event.
By the time she was almost done distributing, several exhibits had already been auctioned off at the charity auction.
Leng Yejin tilted his head. don’t just play with your phone. Just take pictures of whatever you like.
Leng Yejin still remembered how she looked like when he saw her again at the charity auction. She was ridiculed by everyone for the sake of getting the jade pendant, and she looked so pitiful because she had no chance to help him. Leng Yejin held her hand and squeezed it gently.”You don’t have to save money for me.”
“I’m pragmatic. I don’t want to spend money on things that are useless in reality.”
She could buy a house without even blinking because a house could retain its value. Buying these things were not very attractive to her. Moreover, her heart was full tonight. Mere worldly possessions could not bring her deeper happiness.
“Is he really practical? Then why did you get into a deadlock with Xu Ke over a jade pendant?”
“This?” Tong Lu lowered her head and clenched the jade pendant tightly. that’s because the jade pendant was the only thing that my mother left me. I’ve been looking for it for years. I didn’t want to miss any auction during those years just to find the jade pendant. Actually, I didn’t have any hope at all that day, but I was really overjoyed when I saw the jade pendant at the charity banquet. I couldn’t bear to give it away to anyone else. I wanted to get it back even if I had to go bankrupt. Fortunately, you won the jade pendant for me.
Tong Lu was all smiles, but the moment she finished speaking, she noticed that Leng Yejin’s expression had changed.
Leng Yejin was not the only one whose expression changed drastically. Yin Zhan, who was standing next to Leng Yejin, also had a drastic change in his expression. Both of them looked at her face at the same time. miss Tong, what did you just say? ” Please repeat what you just said.”
“What’s wrong?” Tong Lu looked over in confusion.’Why are Leng Yejin and Sir Yin looking at me with such strange expressions?’
I said … she only had time to say two words before Leng Yejin grabbed her by the shoulder and strode out of the room.
“Leng Yejin, stop right there!” Yin Zhan suddenly stood up.
In the quiet venue of the charity auction, all the guests looked at them in unison, confused.
They saw a man with an awe-inspiring arrogance holding a woman’s hand and leaving the venue in the blink of an eye. Another man, who was equally arrogant, chased after him in big strides, but when he reached the door, there was no one there.
Leng Yejin picked Tong Lu up and ran away faster than a rabbit!
