Arrested for impersonating a powerful figure's girlfriend, but forced into a formal relationshi
Chapter 9, how could it be... Sheng Yunian?!
After Jiang Jing finished operating the system, she put her phone aside.
Are you still sleeping?
"I'm not going to sleep."
"If you're not going to sleep, how about you go grocery shopping with Mom?"
"it is good."
The mother and daughter went to the market and happily returned after buying their groceries.
As soon as she stepped into the residential area, Yun Miao suddenly remembered the scene yesterday when Sheng Yinian blocked her at the entrance of Yanshu Apartment. Her eyes immediately scanned the surroundings like radar.
A man was sitting on the bench in front of me.
Hmm, not as long as Sheng Yinian's legs.
There was a man standing under the tree on the left.
Hmm, not as slim as Sheng Yunian's waist.
A man was squatting next to the bushes on the right.
Hmm, not as good as Sheng Yinian's skin.
……
After scouting all the way, Yunmiao successfully followed her mother into the elevator; now all that's left is to get past the door.
The moment the elevator doors opened, she was the first to stick her head out.
Good, all alert lifted.
She stepped lightly out of the elevator: "Mom, I'm so hungry today!"
For the entire afternoon, Yunmiao stayed close to her mother like a little shadow, following her wherever her mother went.
Occasionally, she would check the electronic peephole at the door and look down from the balcony; there was no one and no cars.
What a wonderful day!
If my relationship with Sheng Yinian could cool down and we could return to our own paths in life, that would be wonderful.
In the evening, Jiang Jing was preparing to cook when she received a call from Yun Miao's uncle.
After hanging up, she walked over to Yunmiao, who was watching TV in the living room.
"Little darling, your uncle's family is coming from Qingcheng. They're attending a very important business summit at the International Expo Center tomorrow, and they've invited us to have dinner there tonight."
"Mom, can we not go?"
"I heard that your cousin Zhixia's boyfriend, who is getting engaged next month, is also coming. It would be better if you went. If you don't want to go, Mom will cook dinner for you first and then you can go."
"No need, Mom, I'll go with you."
Fengdu Tianfu, adjacent to Fengcheng International Expo Center, appears particularly solemn today.
The doormen in uniforms solemnly greeted one luxury car after another as they slowly drove in.
At the entrance of the lobby, a group of well-dressed men gathered, glancing around from time to time, seemingly waiting to greet someone.
Just as Yunmiao and Jiang Jing were about to step into the lobby, a large group of people passed by them, presumably having finally met the person they were waiting for.
Yunmiao wanted to turn around and take another look, but Jiang Jing pulled her into the lobby.
When the two arrived at the private room, Aunt Zhang Shulan was already there.
"Xiaojing, did you see when you came up? The threshold for this summit is particularly high. All the people who came are big shots from all over the country."
"Did you also attend the summit?" Jiang Jing asked casually.
"We're just a small family, how could we be qualified? But Zhixia's boyfriend, Zhao Meng, can participate. He's representing his father's company. You've heard of the Zhao Group in Beijing, right?"
Jiang Jing didn't know much about the Zhao Group, but she still nodded politely.
Zhang Shulan's voice couldn't hide her pride.
"Zhao Meng specially arranged for us to come here. He said that even though we can't get into the venue, it would be good for us to get a feel for the atmosphere and make some connections."
Just then, Yunmiao's uncle, Jiang Lai, and a young man in a dark blue suit walked in.
"Zhao Meng, come sit here."
Zhang Shulan quickly stood up to greet them and introduced them to each other.
After a brief exchange of greetings, the meal officially began.
"Why didn't Zhixia come?" Jiang Jing asked.
An irrepressible smile spread across Zhang Shulan's face.
"Zhi Xia isn't feeling well right now and is resting at home. We'll get engaged next month."
"Then congratulations in advance!"
"Hey, our Zhixia is so lucky, she found the right person." Zhang Shulan nudged Jiang Lai beside her with her elbow. "Right, Lao Jiang?"
Jiang Lai smiled.
"Yes, Zhao Meng not only comes from a good family, but he is also very capable. I heard that he has dealings with Sheng Yinian, the head of the Sheng family in the capital. That's Sheng Yinian, after all. It's difficult for ordinary people to even meet him!"
Yunmiao, who was engrossed in eating, suddenly paused with her chopsticks, but quickly resumed normal eating.
Zhao Meng put down his chopsticks and leaned back casually in his chair.
"I have a college classmate named Sheng Shichen. Sheng Yinian is his seventh uncle, so I also call him seventh uncle."
"Since you call him Seventh Uncle, our relationship must be special." Zhang Shulan smiled, her eyes crinkling.
"By the way, Miaomiao, you used to stay at your grandma's house every holiday. Do you remember that really beautiful villa near your grandma's house?"
Yun Miao nodded: "I remember."
"You don't know yet, do you? That villa belongs to the Sheng family."
This was somewhat unexpected by Yunmiao.
There was a large patch of yellow azaleas in front of the villa. During her summer vacation, when she stayed at her grandmother's house, she would carry her easel over there almost every day to sketch that sea of flowers.
Zhang Shulan was clearly in high spirits today and talked a lot.
"Zhao Meng, Miao Miao is studying in Beijing. You'd better take good care of her. In a place like Beijing, you can't get by without connections."
Zhao Meng took a black business card from the inside pocket of his suit and placed it on the lazy Susan.
"Please contact my assistant if you need anything."
The tone was as if bestowing some kind of favor, without even asking which school it was.
Yun Miao glanced at the business card, but didn't take it when the wheel spun around automatically.
"Thank you, but I don't think it's necessary. I'm doing well at school, and my advisor is very supportive."
"Don't speak too confidently." Zhao Meng chuckled. "In the capital, you can't get far by just studying."
Before Yun Miao could respond, Zhang Shulan had already picked up the business card.
"You silly child, what are you being so high and mighty for at a time like this?"
She placed the business card in front of Yun Miao.
"From childhood to adulthood, you have been better at studying than Zhixia. But for us women, no matter how well we study, it's not as good as marrying well. Look at Zhixia, she met Zhao Meng right after graduating from university, and now she's so happy."
"Sister-in-law," Jiang Jingwen said gently, "Young people these days think differently from us back then. Miaomiao has her own plans."
"She's so young, what can she plan for herself? It's up to us elders to arrange things for her. Zhao Meng is so outstanding, the young men around him must be quite good too. When the time comes, let him give Miao Miao..."
Before Zhang Shulan could finish speaking, Jiang Jing's phone suddenly rang.
A few seconds after the call connected, she handed the phone to Yun Miao: "Little darling, it's for you."
Yunmiao took it casually, somewhat puzzled, and said, "Hello."
After a two-second silence on the other end of the phone, a faint voice came through.
"come out."
The call ended after just two words.
Yunmiao's scalp instantly tingled.
How could it be... Sheng Yunian?!
She paused for a moment before saying to the phone, which had already been disconnected, "My phone probably had a bad signal, so I couldn't get through. I'll send you the design drafts for the cultural and creative products later."
After speaking, she paused for a moment and handed the phone to her mother.
Yunmiao observed for a moment, and thankfully her mother didn't notice anything.
After sitting for a while, Yunmiao finally got up.
"Mom, I need to go to the restroom."
After giving a brief explanation, she walked towards the door.
Although Sheng Yinian's words on the phone were quite inexplicable, she couldn't afford to take any risks in this situation, so she could only do as he said.
After opening the door to the private room and stepping out, she was even more confused when she saw the empty hall.
"Click."
The door behind me closed automatically.
Yun Miao snapped out of her daze and turned to open the door when she suddenly saw a figure by the door.
