She kept her marriage a secret for three years, then divorced and was forcefully pampered by a power

Meng Yu seemed greatly comforted. Indeed, he had secured the government's cooperation, and from now on, no company in Beicheng could compare to the Meng Group.

Seeing Han Yifei surrounded by a retinue, Meng Yu secretly swallowed his anger. He would let Han Yifei be smug for a few more days, and then he would make sure Han Yifei wouldn't even have the chance to cry and beg for mercy.

After the exhibition ended at noon, many bigwigs came to ask Han Yifei to invite them to lunch. In the end, the organizers of the exhibition hosted a lunch for the industry authorities.

Meng Yu was naturally among those invited. Shao Yan felt uncomfortable when she saw Meng Yu, but fortunately no one recognized her.

The organizers booked a large private room that could accommodate more than twenty people. Han Yifei and Shao Yan were seated far apart. Shao Yan tried to stay as far away from Meng Yu's line of sight as possible, and Han Yifei also shielded her from view when necessary.

All of this was the greatest insult to Meng Yu.

Even if the woman Han Yifei found, named "Shao Yan," is as beautiful as an angel, can she compare to Pei Rongrong beside him?

The woman who is beautiful and can be promoted is called a public relations person; the woman beside him is his virtuous wife.

Meng Yu glanced at Han Yifei with disdain. Han Yifei was chatting with a big shot next to him, while his female companion showed half of her face. Meng Yu gasped in shock at the glimpse.

He was captivated by the woman after only seeing half of her face; his initial sense of superiority vanished instantly, leaving only jealousy and resentment.

"Ah Yu, you also think my brother's girlfriend is pretty, right? It's a pity she's not a good person."

Pei Rongrong stood close to Meng Yu, showing great hostility towards Shao Yan.

Meng Yu nodded vaguely, his eyes occasionally glancing at Shao Yan. Han Yifei, sitting diagonally opposite him, seemed to notice this and straightened up, blocking Meng Yu's view.

"Sorry everyone, we're late."

The door to the private room was pushed open, and Huo Xiao and another portly man walked in.

Everyone present was filled with respect upon seeing them and stood up to greet them warmly.

"Attorney Huo, Congressman Gao."

Seeing her uncle being so respected, Pei Rongrong said with an air of arrogance.

"Ah Yu, look, my uncle has a very good relationship with Councilor Gao. Even if Honda Fit wanted to curry favor with Councilor Gao, he couldn't. As long as your uncle is around, your company's cooperation with the government is secure, so don't worry."

Pei Rongrong's words made Meng Yu feel somewhat uncomfortable, as if his cooperation with Elder Cao was not due to his own abilities, but rather to Huo Xiao's connections.

He didn't speak, but just watched coldly as the dignified man walked in with Councilor Gao.

Huo Xiao walked straight to the empty seat next to Shao Yan, while Councilor Gao was pulled to sit down next to Cao Lao.

Shao Yan was too young and beautiful, and many people guessed that she was Han Yifei's lover. Therefore, most people were wise enough not to step on the wrong foot. Shao Yan sat next to Han Yifei, but no one dared to take the seat on her other side.

All the people present were men, and none of them had the guts to sit next to the woman who was the CEO of Honda Fit.

Most people were surprised when Huo Xiao sat down next to Shao Yan.

Thinking about this, Attorney Huo is quite a figure, but I wonder if he might offend President Han.

Shao Yan was shocked that Huo Xiao would sit next to her so openly in public, and her whole body tensed up like a bowstring.

"I was just picking up Councilor Gao, so I'm late. I'm sorry."

Huo Xiao's words were ambiguous, as if he were reporting something to Shao Yan, and he used the tone that only boyfriends and girlfriends would use.

Shao Yan's hand trembled slightly as she rested on the wine glass, and her gaze towards Huo Xiao was anything but joking.

Han Yifei seemed to understand perfectly: "Don't worry, Attorney Huo, I will take good care of President Shao."

Shao Yan wanted to explain to Han Yifei that her relationship with Huo Xiao wasn't what he thought, but before she could even open her mouth, someone else spoke up.

"So the beautiful CEO of Fit is our Attorney Huo's girlfriend. No wonder! Attorney Huo really has a discerning eye. Not only is President Shao stunningly beautiful, but she is also exceptionally capable. I dare say that you won't find another President Shao like her in the entire North City."

It has to be said that the flattery was quite effective; even though she knew the other party was exaggerating, Shao Yan still felt quite comfortable listening to it.

As expected, everyone loves to hear flattery, and she was no exception.

Besides Shao Yan, Pei Rongrong was also at the dinner table, and the difference in their abilities was immediately apparent.

Pei Rongrong had a very bad impression of Shao Yan, and seeing that Shao Yan was more popular than her, Pei Rongrong became even angrier.

If there weren't so many people present, Pei Rongrong would have really wanted to tell Huo Xiao about Shao Yan and Han Yifei's affair.

She's clearly her uncle's niece, and her boyfriend is Meng Yu, so why doesn't anyone flatter her?

Across from him, Huo Xiao gently brushed aside Shao Yan's hair to prevent it from getting wet with alcohol. It was this action that allowed Meng Yu to get a full view of Shao Yan.

She was indeed a woman so beautiful it was breathtaking; the men at the table had been staring at her intently ever since Shao Yan walked in.

If it weren't for Han Yifei's sake, they probably would have revealed their true colors.

Now that everyone knows she's Huo Xiao's girlfriend, they only have respect for her and no longer harbor ill intentions.

However, Meng Yu's sense of imbalance began to rise.

Huo Xiao and that girl named Shao Yan aren't a very good match.

Huo Xiao is Pei Rongrong's uncle. That woman should be about the same age as him. By any measure, it's Huo Xiao who's an old cow eating young grass.

I wish I had met that woman sooner.

Meng Yu felt uncomfortable and didn't know why he had such thoughts.

Perhaps it's because this woman, like his wife, is named Shao Yan.

He gave himself a plausible reason, and Huo Xiao, on the other hand, didn't know where he got so much to talk about with the woman.

Meng Yu almost never took his eyes off them.

Huo Xiao stayed close to the woman, who seemed shy. Her charming and alluring appearance ignited a nameless fire in Meng Yu.

He even felt as if he had seen the woman somewhere before; her movements and expressions were inexplicably familiar.

"Ah Yu, Ah Yu."

Pei Rongrong called Meng Yu twice before Meng Yu finally came to his senses.

"Um?"

"What are you looking at?"

Meng Yu regained his composure and couldn't resist sowing discord.

"Look at why your future aunt is sitting between your uncle and Han Yifei, and your uncle doesn't seem to have the slightest sense of crisis."

Pei Rongrong was a little annoyed: "It's all because my uncle is stupid. After dinner, I'm going to tell him that woman is flirting with that Fit president. Only someone as naive as my uncle, who has no dating experience, would fall for that vixen's tricks."

Meng Yu glanced at Huo Xiao, looking as serious as if he were going to run for office.

However, under the table, his hand restlessly rested on Shao Yan's smooth thigh, even stroking it back and forth.

Shao Yan trembled, yet dared not move.

A blush rose to her cheeks, and she dared not look at anyone.

What on earth is Huo Xiao up to? With so many people around, how could he actually do such a thing?

Fortunately, the waiter came to serve the food at that moment, and Huo Xiao let her go.

What do you like to eat?

Shao Yan said with slight annoyance, "I'll do it myself."

Huo Xiao looked at her with an ambiguous gaze: "Tell me, do you believe I'll feed you mouth-to-mouth?"
