After the divorce, he went on a motorcycle trip, and his ex-wife and daughter were filled with regre

Xia Yu was already extremely beautiful, with delicate and aloof features, and an outstanding temperament.

Today, her white business attire perfectly accentuated her tall figure and powerful aura as a female CEO.

Her movement immediately attracted the attention of many people in the hall.

"That must be Ms. Xia from Blue Ocean Group, right? She's really beautiful. I heard her proposal at the meeting today stunned everyone."

"What's the use of being pretty? In the business world, what matters is strength and connections. Although Blue Ocean Group has developed well in recent years, its foundation is still too weak. I think it's unlikely that it can swallow up such a large project as Cloud Top Town in one go."

"Yes, Shen Qinghan from the Shen Group also went to offer a toast earlier, and I heard he got a cold shoulder. The threshold for Kunlun Capital is not so easy to cross."

A series of hushed whispers arose from the surrounding area.

Xia Yu ignored the discussions; she simply stood quietly at the end of the line, looking at the main table number one.

Upon seeing this, she was completely stunned.

She suddenly saw a figure that was extremely familiar.

Jiang Ye? !

Xia Yu's pupils dilated slightly, and a hint of undisguised surprise flashed in her eyes.

Jiang Ye was dressed very casually today, in a black jacket and jeans, making him stand out awkwardly among the group of formally dressed men. At this moment, he was leaning back in his chair, holding a cup of abalone soup in his hand, sipping it while idly staring at the crystal chandelier in the hall.

Xia Yu's mind raced.

What is he doing here? And why is he sitting at the number one main table?

Could he have sneaked in? Impossible. Security for tonight's banquet is extremely tight; without an invitation, you can't even get through the hotel gates.

Could he be a low-level employee of Kunlun Capital, such as a driver or logistics staff member, who was temporarily brought in to make up the numbers?

But what driver can sit so casually next to Lei Heng, the Asia Pacific president, especially when Lei Heng seems to be quite polite to him?

Xia Yu was speechless. What on earth was this guy up to?

Why is this guy everywhere?

Just as Xia Yu was filled with doubt, Lei Heng, who was sitting at the main table, caught a glimpse of Xia Yu at the end of the line out of the corner of his eye.

Lei Heng's heart skipped a beat.

As the Asia-Pacific president of Kunlun Capital, Lei Heng is an extremely intelligent person who is good at reading people.

He knew his boss Jiang Ye's temperament very well. Jiang Ye was usually extremely low-key and never inquired about the backgrounds of the women in his business dealings.

However, the day before yesterday, the boss not only personally inquired about Xia Yu's details, but also investigated that old domestic car, and even specifically asked him to check the detailed information of Blue Ocean Group and Xia Yu.

Although Jiang Ye wouldn't admit it, Lei Heng was a shrewd person, and the boss definitely had feelings for Xia Yu!

Thinking of this, Lei Heng no longer dared to let Xia Yu wait in line.

He stood up abruptly, picked up the glass of red wine in front of him, walked around the table, and strode towards the group of people offering toasts.

The business owners ahead of Xia Yu were so excited when they saw Lei Heng walking over that their faces lit up with excitement, and they all raised their glasses to greet him.

"Mr. Lei, hello, I am..."

However, Lei Heng merely nodded politely to them, without pausing in his steps, and walked directly past them to Xia Yu at the very back of the group.

Amidst everyone's shocked gazes, Lei Heng stopped in his tracks, his face beaming with a warm and polite smile, and offered his wine glass to Xia Yu.

"President Xia, your performance in the closed-door meeting just now was truly outstanding. Blue Ocean Group's proposal is very forward-thinking and left a deep impression on me."

Lei Heng's voice was neither too loud nor too soft, just loud enough for everyone around him to hear clearly.

"bite--"

Lei Heng took the initiative to gently touch Xia Yu's glass with his own, and even deliberately lowered the rim of his glass slightly, which was an extremely obvious gesture of goodwill and respect.

This scene instantly silenced the entire banquet hall for a moment.

Everyone stared wide-eyed, their faces filled with disbelief.

That's Lei Heng!

The Asia-Pacific president of Kunlun Capital, a top-tier capital tycoon with hundreds of billions in funds! Just now, so many bosses worth billions went to toast him, but Lei Heng didn't even lift his butt, just perfunctorily clinked glasses.

Now, he actually left his seat, walked through the crowd, and went to toast Xia Yu from the Blue Ocean Group? And his attitude was so polite?

What a huge favor! What incredible consideration!

Faced with Lei Heng's overtures, Xia Yu was somewhat surprised, but on the surface she maintained the composure of a female CEO.

She smiled slightly and said gracefully, "Mr. Lei, you flatter me. Blue Ocean Group is just doing what we should do. We hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with such an excellent platform as Kunlun Capital."

After saying that, she elegantly took a sip of red wine.

Lei Heng took a big gulp of wine, then leaned closer to Xia Yu, lowered his voice, and said in a tone only the two of them could hear, "President Xia, I've seen the strength of the Blue Ocean Group. However, the final decision-making power regarding the Cloud Top Town project doesn't actually rest entirely with me."

Xia Yu was slightly taken aback and looked at Lei Heng with a puzzled expression.

Lei Heng subtly gestured with his eyes to Jiang Ye, who was sitting at the head table, and whispered encouragingly, "See that Mr. Jiang? He's a very important figure at Kunlun Capital. His opinion plays a decisive role in the investment in Hanzhou. If President Xia really wants to secure this project, I suggest you go and toast Mr. Jiang."

Hearing this, Xia Yu's heart was filled with turmoil.

She followed Lei Heng's gaze and saw Jiang Ye still sitting there, playing with a lighter in his hand, looking languid.

Jiang Ye? An important figure? A decisive player?

Xia Yu felt that the world had gone completely mad.

The man who rides a motorcycle every day, claiming to be divorced and unemployed, and who used to be a driver, is actually a big shot in Kunlun Capital who can influence the ownership of projects worth billions.

How is that possible!

However, these words were spoken by Lei Heng himself, and Lei Heng would never joke about such a thing.

Xia Yu took a deep breath, trying to calm her inner shock.

She increasingly felt that she couldn't understand Jiang Ye at all.

He seemed shrouded in a thick fog, and every time she thought she understood him, he would reveal an even more shocking side.

"Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Lei." Xia Yu nodded.

Regardless of Jiang Ye's true identity, since Lei Heng had spoken, she had to offer him a toast. For the sake of Blue Ocean Group and the Cloud Top Town project, she had no reason to back down.

Holding a wine glass, Xia Yu walked past Lei Heng and, under the gaze of hundreds of eyes in the room, slowly approached the main table number one.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became somewhat subtle.

Lei Heng's offer of a toast to Xia Yu had already surprised everyone. Now, Xia Yu didn't return to her seat but instead went directly to the mysterious young man in the jacket at the head table.

"Who is that person? Why is President Xia toasting him?"

"I don't know. Gu Ziming just called him a driver, and then he got a severe scolding from President Lei."

"To be able to sit in that position, one is definitely not an ordinary person. It seems that Blue Ocean Group has truly climbed a high branch this time."

All eyes were focused on Jiang Ye and Xia Yu, like spotlights.
