Chapter 46 Classmates Always Show Off When They Meet
Wu Hongliang was incredibly capable; in just a few days, he created a huge buzz around the Cold Spirit Pill. The subsequent launch event was held in the conference hall of the most luxurious Dihua Hotel in Lingzhou, and the event was made to resemble a new product launch by a super luxury brand.
Almost all the prominent figures in Ling Chau attended the event, and there were also several currently popular celebrities present.
Zhuo Yang, dressed in white and accompanied by his butler, failed to attract anyone's attention.
"Master, the press conference is about to begin. I heard that President Wu has arranged a special program." Huang Jiaxin seemed a little eager to participate. As Zhuo Yang's female companion, she was dressed very beautifully.
Zhuo Yang's purpose was no longer the press conference itself; his nod was considered an agreement.
The two arrived at the buffet area, intending to eat something first. Huang Jiaxin had just picked up a plate when someone suddenly exclaimed, "Huang Jiaxin, what are you doing here?"
The voice sounded familiar, and Huang Jiaxin turned around, her face immediately stiffening.
The woman in front of me was wearing a bright red dress with a cleavage that reached almost to her navel and a slit in the skirt that went up to her waist, exuding a seductive charm.
She is Zhang Siqi, Huang Jiaxin's college classmate.
"What a coincidence! I didn't expect you to be attending the press conference where Lingzhou's tycoons gather!" Zhang Siqi's eyes revealed a hint of surprise and disdain as she looked Huang Jiaxin up and down. "Have you suddenly become a phoenix after climbing the social ladder?"
Huang Jiaxin's expression wasn't good. Zhang Siqi was her roommate in college, and they were very close friends. After graduation, Zhang Siqi quickly married a wealthy man and then started showing off on social media, which was very annoying.
Zhang Siqi came here to show off and, incidentally, to put Huang Jiaxin down.
"It's been a long time," Huang Jiaxin replied, forcing back her tears.
"Hey, I heard you're selling houses. Did you hook up with a rich guy while selling houses?" Zhang Siqi affectionately put her arm around Huang Jiaxin's arm and started trying to get information out of her.
Huang Jiaxin was in a bad mood and wanted to leave but couldn't, so she could only say perfunctorily, "I didn't try to hook up with any rich guy. I just came with my boss to take a look."
"What a pretentious act!" Zhang Siqi thought to herself with disdain, but she showed even more curiosity. "Don't lie to me. We're all women. There's nothing shameful about dating a rich man."
Huang Jiaxin was extremely annoyed, and no matter how she tried to explain, she couldn't get it right.
Just then, Zhuo Yang walked over with a plate of food. Seeing the two of them being affectionate, he smiled and asked, "Jiaxin, is this your friend? I'll wait for you over there!"
Then he walked to an empty table.
Zhang Siqi stared at Zhuo Yang in astonishment and said angrily, "Jiaxin, that's not fair of you. Not only did you hook up with a rich guy, but he's also so young and handsome. Tell me quickly, what kind of business does he do, and how much money does he have?"
“He…” Huang Jiaxin’s eyes flickered, “He’s just a medicine seller.”
As the boss's housekeeper, she was very clear about her role. She couldn't cause trouble for the boss, and she certainly couldn't reveal the boss's identity just to show off.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Siqi scoffed, "Jiaxin, your taste isn't very good. You've chosen a mediocre small business owner. You should know that the pharmaceutical king of Lingzhou is Wu Hongliang, the number one in the industry!"
Huang Jiaxin chuckled twice but didn't reply.
Zhang Siqi looked down on her even more, and consequently despised Zhuo Yang as well. But then, she suddenly noticed that Wu Hongliang, the Medicine King of Lingzhou, was walking towards them.
She immediately straightened her back and struck a seductive pose. Even though she was already married, she was still thinking of seducing other wealthy men.
Wu Hongliang ignored her and walked right past her.
Zhang Siqi cursed inwardly, "No taste! Can't they see I'm delicate and easily taken advantage of?"
"Mr. Zhuo, you've finally arrived! I've been so busy here!" Wu Hongliang sat down opposite Zhuo Yang and complained bitterly.
Zhuo Yang smiled and handed over his water. Wu Hongliang didn't care at all and picked up the water glass and drank it down in one gulp.
"You're doing a great job of being a hands-off boss, treating us middle-aged people like manual laborers," Wu Hongliang began to complain again.
Zhuo Yang liked Wu Hongliang's forthright military demeanor very much, and said with a faint smile, "The capable should do more."
"Alright, you can continue to be a hands-off manager, I'll go greet the guests!" Seeing that important figures had arrived, Wu Hongliang hurriedly went over to greet them.
Upon seeing all this, Zhang Siqi's mouth hung open in disbelief: "Jia, Jiaxin, your man... is he very familiar with Boss Wu?"
Huang Jiaxin calmly replied, "Yes, they are very good friends and business partners."
You can look down on yourself, but look down on my boss? Hmph, just tell me who he is, and you'll be scared to death!
Zhang Siqi looked at Huang Jiaxin and felt that God was being unfair. She said angrily, "You don't usually care about dressing up, how could you possibly be able to hook up with someone like that? It's unbelievable!"
Huang Jiaxin didn't respond, becoming increasingly calm.
Then, Dongfang Jiye came over and sat down opposite Zhuo Yang with a smile. "All the important people in Lingzhou are here today. Would you like me to introduce you to a few?"
Zhuo Yang shook his head and refused: "Forget it, I don't like unnecessary socializing."
Dongfang Jiye nodded to indicate that he understood, then suddenly lowered his voice and said, "Zhuo Yang, I heard that Longting is also paying attention to your Cold Spirit Pill. I estimate that some of their people will show up today. Be careful."
"The fish took the bait?" Zhuo Yang raised the corner of his mouth.
"Don't break the fishing rod." Dongfang Jiye patted Zhuo Yang's shoulder meaningfully, like an elder.
Zhuo Yang didn't pay attention and continued eating.
Dongfang Jiye left quickly, moving back and forth among the noble ladies and gentlemen in the hall. As the richest man in Lingzhou, he had a wide social circle.
Zhang Siqi couldn't stop smiling. She looked at Zhuo Yang, then at Huang Jiaxin, and gasped, "Your man is so amazing that the richest man in Lingzhou actually came all the way here to greet him?"
In his mind, only people of low status would take the initiative to greet people of high status. Dongfang Jiye's actions undoubtedly made her feel that Zhuo Yang's status was higher than Dongfang Jiye's.
Huang Jiaxin stood tall and proud, mimicking Zhuo Yang's imposing manner, and said calmly, "First, I'm not the boss's woman; I'm just his secretary. Second, my boss's status is very high, beyond your imagination!"
In front of outsiders, Huang Jiaxin refers to herself as Zhuo Yang's secretary.
Having shown off a bit, she casually picked out a few dishes, took the plates, and went to find Zhuo Yang.
Zhang Siqi glared at him through gritted teeth, her skirt nearly ripping apart: "What are you pretending for? You're still just a slut who gets fucked!"
After she finished cursing, she was even angrier. She was the woman in her college class who married the best, and she could show off however she wanted. Now, Huang Jiaxin had appeared, and it seemed that she was doing even better than her, which made her extremely unhappy.
"No, I have to win this round!" Zhang Siqi gritted her teeth, found her husband's fat figure in the crowd, and quickly walked over.
