Regretful Beijing Marriage

Chapter 138 Stealing the Show

The room fell silent for a few seconds, then bursts into shocked murmurs.

What exactly is Jiang Yining's advantage?!

Everyone knows that this exchange meeting was organized entirely by He Xiuyuan.

She had a rule from the very beginning.

The opening ceremony will be attended by a guest who will join in the opening remarks.

Over the years, even the most prestigious wealthy families have given He Xiuyuan face.

Every year, the people standing beside her are all top-tier nobles and dignitaries.

Fu Huaiyan was present this year.

Everyone thought that this position was indispensable to him.

Unexpectedly, it ended up on such a young woman.

Jiang Yining arrived dressed simply.

It seems to have absolutely no background.

As for academic achievements, she's not famous, so where would she get any achievements?

But he was just an ordinary person.

Not only did they hold a unique, gold invitation, but they also possessed a one-of-a-kind invitation to the entire event.

She was even personally led onto the stage by He Xiuyuan, enjoying the highest level of courtesy.

This made everyone even more curious about her background.

"Who is this person? Did they sneak in through connections?"

"Don't talk nonsense. This was personally selected by Old Mrs. He. She wouldn't choose someone based on connections."

"So what exactly is this woman's ability? It's all so unclear, and she's not worthy of her position."

Questions and criticisms continued to emerge.

Everyone is jealous.

At this exchange meeting.

Jiang Yining stole the show and was too eye-catching.

Meng Yao's face was completely contorted in pain as she sat in the audience.

She went to great lengths to dress up for the occasion today, thinking that with the industry experience she had built up over the years, she could do whatever she wanted here.

But reality slapped her hard in the face.

How did Jiang Yining, whom she once trampled underfoot, become so successful and glamorous here?

She was left out in a corner the whole time.

She is not reconciled.

Jiang Yining clearly had no chance of making a comeback back then.

Now they've not only climbed out.

They even stood at a height that she couldn't reach!

Meng Yao wished she could go up and tear Jiang Yining to pieces.

She has worked hard to build this business for so many years.

Even if you manage to make a name for yourself in the industry.

They are still insignificant in front of a big shot like He Xiuyuan, and don't even have the right to get close and talk to her.

Over the years, he could only follow Shen Miaoyin around like a dog, begging for scraps.

They didn't even come close to becoming a member of a wealthy or powerful family.

In contrast, Jiang Yining was pampered by He Xiuyuan!

The enormous drop filled Meng Yao's chest like venom.

No, she couldn't let Jiang Yining get away with this!

Shen Miaoyin noticed Meng Yao's emotions.

She held her down calmly and warned her in a low voice.

"Don't cause trouble!"

"The academic competition later will be your chance to turn things around."

Of course she hated it too.

But she knew that making a big fuss would be exactly what Jiang Yining wanted.

Meng Yao gritted her teeth and swallowed back the impulse.

But the hatred in his eyes just wouldn't go away.

On stage, He Xiuyuan, holding Jiang Yining's hand, solemnly addressed the audience:

"Thank you, Ms. Jiang, for coming today. I hope you will offer your guidance in the upcoming academic discussions so that we can learn from each other and improve together."

This statement silenced the entire venue once again.

What is He Xiuyuan's identity?

Even when facing industry veterans, they wouldn't necessarily be this amiable.

Now, I'm giving pointers to a younger person.

It completely overturned everyone's understanding.

In an instant, everyone stopped holding a grudge.

Instead, I'm curious about just how much skill Jiang Yining is hiding.

Soon, the exchange meeting officially began.

Jiang Yining then truly felt the significance of this summit.

Many challenging cases were presented for discussion at the event.

These people are indeed among the best in the industry.

That's a reasonable and well-founded argument.

Everyone was putting in their best effort to secure the recommendation spot from He Xiuyuan.

Moreover, some of the powerful and influential people present directly voiced their concerns.

This is for discussion and analysis by everyone.

The scene became extremely lively.

Jiang Yining observed quietly from the outside.

At some point, Fu Huaiyan quietly stood beside her again.

His deep, clear voice fell to the ground.

"Let's go take a look ahead."

"There's a special patient there, and nobody dares to take on the case."

Jiang Yining turned her head to look at him, her eyes filled with barely suppressed anger.

"Fu Huaiyan, why aren't you with Shen Miaoyin? What are you doing following me all the way?"

"Afraid I'll say something inappropriate in public? If you're worried, then keep an eye on your people and don't let them cause trouble everywhere."

Fu Huaiyan's gaze fell on Jiang Yining's angry face.

He suddenly chuckled softly.

"Are you angry? Because I didn't speak up for you in public just now."

Jiang Yining almost laughed out of anger at him.

What's the point of saying all this nonsensical stuff?

Did you think she would fall for it again?

This person is simply unreasonable.

It took her seven years.

Once divorced, there's no going back.

"Mr. Fu, please stop following me. Your girlfriend is going to get angry."

Jiang Yining chuckled and glanced at Shen Miaoyin not far away.

The woman's face turned green with anger.

He stared at her with eyes that looked like he wanted to devour her.

Unfortunately, she was sitting there as a patient and couldn't come over.

That's fine, it saves her from causing trouble.

"Go quickly, don't keep them waiting."

Fu Huaiyan didn't even lift his eyelids, speaking casually.

"no."

Jiang Yining stopped abruptly.

What do you mean, "not"?

If I don't keep you waiting, am I still your girlfriend?

"……Neuropathy."

Regardless, it has nothing to do with her.

After saying that, Jiang Yining simply walked forward.

Turning the corner, I indeed saw a very deserted clinic.

There was no one around.

It's rather desolate here now.

Every desk in the lobby was packed with people.

This place was the only one that was completely empty.

A simply dressed man was sitting in the chair.

A hideous, twisted scar ran across his face.

His facial features were distorted by the scar.

It looks terrifying.

Jiang Yining collected her thoughts and slowly stepped forward.

But as soon as she got close, the man who had been sitting quietly suddenly stood up.

His eyes flashed with intense vigilance and hostility as he roared hoarsely.

"Don't try to get information from me!"

As he spoke, he was about to rush towards Jiang Yining.

Caught off guard, Jiang Yining instinctively dodged backward.

He tripped over his own feet.

He leaned backward uncontrollably.

The next instant, my back slammed firmly into a solid, warm chest.

A pair of arms came around from behind and held her waist tightly.

He precisely pulled her back two steps.

Jiang Yining's nose brushed against the cold breath on the collar.

His fingertips unconsciously clenched the hem of his shirt.

He barely managed to steady himself.

Fu Huaiyan's calm voice rang out.

"Don't go over there yet, he's a retired veteran."

"Severe post-traumatic stress disorder, emotional instability, and aggression."

Jiang Yining was completely encircled in Fu Huaiyan's arms.

Even through the thin fabric of his clothes, I could clearly feel his strong heartbeat.

The voice came from right above her head, brushing against her earlobe.

Jiang Yining paused for a moment, then turned her head and looked up at him.

My throat moved slightly.

But when she met Fu Huaiyan's gaze as he looked down at her, she suddenly choked up.

His eyes were so deep and unfathomable.

It was as if there was something pressing down on her that she couldn't understand...
