C114 A Dance

In the hearts of the crowd, the relationship between the Lei Group and Chi's Group was not harmonious.

When the needle met the mech, it gave the audience quite a bit of talk.

"Mr. Chi," A busybody shouted in front of Lei Jia. "I wonder what Chi's Group you have in mind today's matter?"

The spotlight landed on Chi Shaojun.

"According to many years of market research, the Lei Group's performance is very good. If we can work together with the strong, we will naturally welcome them and hope that we can cooperate happily. But while this world needs the strong, we need to abide by the survival of the fittest."

His words contained hidden meanings, causing many people to heave a long sigh.

"What Wu Dingyuan said is too good!" Lei Jia was the first to clap his hands on stage, "To be able to join forces, you must have twice the result with half the effort. On the contrary, you have to plan for yourself. I'm curious about the path that we will take, which one of us will be more outstanding?"

Everyone present knew that the two of them were on par with one another. Like a magnetic field of yin and yang, they each held their own positions. However, they were also restraining each other.

At this moment, gentle music sounded in the hall. Lei Jia slowly walked down from the stage. His gaze was constantly searching the hall as if he was looking for someone.

When he saw Ann Qianxi, who was standing not far away from Chi Shaojun, the corner of his mouth raised into a demonic smile.

He walked straight to Ann Qianxi's side, gave Chi Shaojun a slight nod of courtesy, and then extended his hand out like a gentleman.

"If Mr. Chi doesn't mind, can you lend me a dance with Miss Ann?"

Chi Shaojun didn't seem to be able to hear what he was saying. He didn't have any expression on his face. He turned his head to the side and looked in an unknown direction.

Seeing that he had already closed the door, Lei Jia wasn't angry at all. He turned to Ann Qianxi and asked, "Miss Ann, can I ask you to dance for me?"

Ann Qianxi glanced at Chi Shaojun out of the corner of her eye, but he didn't reply.

"No." Ann Qianxi replied. She really did not want to attend this banquet, and she did not want to encounter any awkward situations like this.

"No?"

Lei Jia raised his eyebrows, but didn't retract his hand: "Miss Ann, for the sake of our children, can't you give me face and dance with me?"

Before he finished his sentence, Chi Shaojun and Ann Qianxi were both slightly stunned.

These words were like a knife that stabbed into Chi Shaojun's heart. He coldly snorted and walked in another direction with a wave of his hand.

Seeing Chi Shaojun walk away, Ann Qianxi's face was filled with anger. She thought Lei Jia was deliberately humiliating her. "Are you crazy!?"

She lowered her voice and her body began to tremble involuntarily.

"I'll tell you what," Lei Jia purposely said in a loud voice. Many of the people beside him turned to look at Ann Qianxi. "Miss Ann, can I ask you to dance?"

Although Ann Qianxi was unwilling, she was also afraid that he would say some threatening words in front of so many people. Thus, she could only reluctantly place her hand on his palm.

Ann Qianxi's most popular dance melody was heard during the banquet. She was soon so immersed in the joy beneath her feet that she forgot about the person in front of her who she hated the most.

She closed her eyes and imagined herself spinning freely in an empty space, but it didn't take long for Lei Jia's voice to reach her ears again.

"Miss Ann's steps are really good, no wonder Chi Shaojun likes you so much."

She opened her eyes, not knowing what the man in front of her was saying.

"You're not really angry, are you?" Lei Jia increased his strength on Ann Qianxi's waist, and the gap between them became narrow.

"Director Lei, so many people are watching." she reminded him in a cold voice.

"They? "Even I'm not afraid of Chi Shaojun, what's the point of them?" Lei Jia didn't care about Ann Qianxi's kind reminder. Instead, he explained himself, "I just like Chi Shaojun's angry look. Miss Ann, you must have seen it. He wished he could eat me alive just now."

"Abnormal!" Ann Qianxi cursed silently in her heart. She still pursed her lips, not wanting to answer Lei Jia's words. She pushed with both of her hands, trying to increase the distance between the two of them.

"Alright, alright, I was forced to do what I did just now." Lei Jia loosened his grip and the two separated by a little bit.

"I didn't realize that Director Lei could be associated with words like that." She scoffed.

The words Lei Jia said earlier that he was the biological father of the child lingered in his mind.

Lei Jia smiled, then changed his tone, "If I didn't do that, how would he be willing to leave. If he didn't leave, then Miss Ann asked me to call him …"

"What?" Hearing Lei Jia's words, she couldn't help but open her eyes wide.

"Miss Ann, there are a lot of people watching here." Lei Jia chuckled. He gave back to Ann Qianxi what she said to him earlier.

"What a guy!" Ann Qianxi cursed inwardly.

The dance music was nearing its end, and Lei Jia no longer held her in suspense. He told her the whole story, "Miss Ann, that phone call came from Xucheng Science and Technology University."

Ann Qianxi frowned. In just a few days, this place had been named by who knows how many people.

"Who is it?" she asked.

"Prof. Zhang, but this phone number, even though it's a special number for Prof. Zhang's laboratory, it's very well hidden. Normal people definitely can't find this location."

Ann Qianxi's eyes widened even wider. As expected, Prof. Zhang had a close relationship with Chi Shaojun and Lee Xi.

She thought back to the day when she was with Prof. Du, when the security guards forcefully took away the medicine, maybe it was a new thing developed by Prof. Zhang.

At this point, Ann Qianxi wasn't sure if this lead was good news for her.

"Tsk, looks like Miss Ann already has an idea. However, it's better if you protect yourself first before searching for clues." Lei Jia continued.

"What do you mean?"

Lei Jia nodded towards Chi Shaojun's direction.

Ann Qianxi saw Chi Shaojun standing in the corner with a cold face, but his gaze never left her.

"It seems like Director Chi is really angry this time. You should be careful later on."

The song ended.

Lei Jia let go of Ann Qianxi's arm, nodded politely at Ann Qianxi, then left with a smile.

Ann Qianxi, on her own, was stuck in a difficult situation. For a moment, she didn't know what to do.

If he were to return to Chi Shaojun's side at this moment, it was unknown if he would do something too excessive.
