C19 I Don't Know Him
Lan Lingwan stood in the middle of the crowd, surrounded by a business partner of Zang Haifeng who saw Lan Lingwan as a young girl. With a malicious smile, he said, "Boss Zang found such a young and beautiful fiancée, what good fortune. After toasting us, Director Mu, don't forget to give me a few cups too."
When Mu Jincheng heard the words "fiancée," his face instantly darkened as he looked at Lan Lingwan. He tightly pursed his lips that were as thin as blades, and his dark eyes were filled with a layer of coldness, causing the surrounding temperature to plummet.
This little fox always had the ability to challenge his bottom line.
He stared at Lan Lingwan, not wanting to congratulate her on her engagement, but more like he wanted to kill her.
Even Zang Haifeng could feel Mu Jincheng's serious coldness. He did not know where he had offended this great god. He carefully asked, "Director Mu also knows Miss Lan?"
"I don't know."
Mu Jincheng was talking to Haifeng, but his eyes were staring at Lan Lingwan like blades.
This man changed his expression so quickly. The day before, he even hugged Hong Luan and warmed her tent.
At night, they would no longer know each other.
Lan Lingwan looked at Mu Jincheng, her eyes darkened, and an undetectable discomfort rose in her heart.
It disappeared in a flash.
She quickly adjusted a very polite smile and picked up the red wine on the waiter's plate. "Director Mu, it's our first time meeting. My fiancé and I are late. Let's toast to you first."
Zang Haifeng's heart fluttered when Lan Lingwan called him "fiancé." One hand picked up the wine cup and the other unexpectedly pulled Lan Lingwan's delicate arm.
"I don't drink with unimportant people."
The anger in Mu Jincheng's voice made people shiver. He looked at Lan Lingwan's arm being held by another man. Her frozen face seemed to freeze the volcano in her heart, and it became more and more tense.
The atmosphere suddenly became very awkward. The cocktail party was silent. Everyone had their heads lowered. At the same time, they glanced in Mu Jincheng's direction from time to time, paying attention to the situation here.
Zang Haifeng was also a little anxious. In order to ease the awkwardness, he also raised his glass, bowed, and said with an awkward smile, "Then this glass of wine will be toasted to you together. Director Mu, please..."
Before Zang Haifeng finished speaking, there was a loud bang. The tray in the waiter's hand was flipped over by Mu Jincheng. The wine glass on the tray was broken and scattered all over the floor. The wine in the glass was spilled everywhere.
"I just said that I don't want to drink with you."
After Mu Jincheng said that to Zang Haifeng, he walked towards the entrance of the banquet hall with his long legs.
Zang Haifeng was completely stunned, and he was so scared that his heart turned. He did not want to have any conflict with this man. One should know that most of the big corporations in A City had business dealings with Mu's. If he let others know that he had a conflict with Mu Jincheng, no one would dare to do business with him in the future!
The older the wiser, the wiser. Zang Haifeng immediately scolded the waiter as if he was trying to smooth things over. "How do you take the tray? If you hurt Director Mu, can you pay for it?"
Lan Lingwan had also been splashed with red wine just now. Her light dress was stuck to her body, and she looked very embarrassed.
"Look at Director Zang's fiancee. She's so young and has gotten close to the old man. Young people nowadays really want money and want to go crazy."
"What's the use of going crazy? She offended Director Mu, and now even the Zang family has bad luck."
"Haha, I think Chief Zang has married a jinx. Do you know who this girl is? She's the orphan girl left behind by the Lan family. Whoever gets close to this kind of girl will have bad luck."
Everyone looked at her and pointed at her. When Lan Lingwan heard someone mention the Lan family, she felt depressed and tears welled up in her eyes.
"I will go to the bathroom to clean up first." After saying that, Lan Lingwan ran out.
Rushing into the bathroom, Lan Lingwan stood alone in front of the mirror in the bathroom. Biting her lower lip, she held back her tears.
After so many years, biting her lower lip had become her habit. She could not cry. She also did not allow herself to cry.
But it was already very hard to live by the side of her blood-sucking uncle and aunt. Now, she had a wretched fiancé.
Everyone thought that she got engaged to Zang Haifeng because she was greedy for money, but they didn't know that Xu Qingmei had always threatened her with completing her studies, so she could only pretend to be obedient step by step.
Lan Lingwan felt like she was stepping on high heels, any mistake would be a bottomless abyss.
But this was the path she had chosen. The engagement ceremony was still going on, and she still had to endure.
Lan Lingwan felt as if something was stuck in her heart. Lan Lingwan tidied her skirt and lowered her head as she prepared to return to the banquet hall. Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded by her ear.
"Come with me, immediately."
