313 Toast
Le Yao felt uncomfortable under his gaze and hurriedly looked away.
Yang Jinhan smiled and lowered his head to drink silently.
After that, everyone got along very peacefully and chatted happily.
“Qiao, did the Wu family invest in Cui Can Films themselves just to support their son?” Le Yao asked Qiao Qiao quietly because Li Hao had just said that Wu Ya would be the protagonist in the next youth drama. It was good to be rich.
“No, Cui Can has been established for five or six years. That’s under the Earl Corporation.” Qiao Qiao took a sip of hot milk. Her body was in special condition today, so she could only sit in the most expensive clubhouse and drink fresh milk.
“The Earl Corporation?” Le Yao frowned. “Is it very powerful?” There was no mention of this in the original book.
On the other side, Nangong Jue pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
“From Wall Street, with businesses all over the world…” Qiao Qiao glanced at Le Yao. “Let’s put it this way, the Qiao family is very powerful, right? But my father said that our Qiao family’s assets are at most a third of theirs.”
Le Yao gasped. “That’s impressive.” She couldn’t help but glance at Huo Yi. She hadn’t taken this person seriously just now.
“What’s even more impressive and awesome is that after so many years, no one knows who the real big boss is.”
“That Huo Yi…”
“That’s just the person in charge on the surface.”
Nangong Jue’s lips curled up.
“I guess that big boss is very ugly.” Le Yao touched her chin. “Or he can’t be in the light. Otherwise, why would he hide?”
The corners of Nangong Jue’s mouth twitched, and his smile stiffened.
“That makes sense.” Qiao Qiao nodded.
“But who cares? It has nothing to do with us.” Le Yao picked up the fruit juice and clinked it with Qiao Qiao’s.
“That’s right.” Qiao Qiao nodded.
“You two…” Nangong Jue wanted to tell these two women that the big boss behind them was very good-looking. However, before he could speak, the door of the private room was pushed open with a bang.
Everyone who was talking, drinking, and playing turned around and saw Yang Jinxuan walk in.
“Brother, you…” Yang Jinhan frowned, but he was the first to stand up and welcome him.
“I’m not here for you.” Yang Jinxuan pushed his brother away and walked straight in. He looked straight at Nangong Jue. “Nangong Jue, don’t tell me you don’t welcome me?”
“Why would I?” Nangong Jue smiled. “We’re all brothers. Why wouldn’t I welcome you?”
Fu Yunshen stood up and went over to pull Yang Jinxuan. “I called you before, but you didn’t answer. Now…”
However, Yang Jinxuan pushed Fu Yunshen away. Then, he picked up the wine bottle on the table and poured himself a full glass of red wine. Then, he carried it to Nangong Jue. “I was next door just now. I heard that you were here, so I came over to greet you. Come, let me toast you.”
Nangong Jue also stood up. “Sure.” Then, they clinked glasses and drank it all in one gulp.
However, Yang Jinxuan didn’t drink it. Instead, he looked at Nangong Jue. “Are you very happy that Mengmeng is dead?”
“Don’t you know how she died?” Nangong Jue raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Yang Jinxuan. “Besides, are you sure she’s really dead?”
Le Yao frowned. What she was most afraid of was that it would be like what was written in some novels. That woman was not dead, and then she would come back for revenge. That would be too melodramatic.
