Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

As soon as she returned to the company, Murong Qiao returned to her previous mode.

Sitting in the office, her eyes were filled with countless documents. The key was that just as she thought that she was about to be liberated, Jiang Chi would send a new batch over.

Seeing Jiang Chi place the documents beside her, a “mask of pain” immediately appeared on Murong Qiao’s face.

“You still have a brand invitation to attend tomorrow. It’s the other party’s new product news conference. Please remember to attend.” Jiang Chi reminded her of the schedule.

Murong Qiao blinked blankly. “Why don’t I remember?”

“It was sent three days ago. You were still recording the show at that time,” Jiang Chi explained. “The brand recently has a high-end collaboration. It’ll be very beneficial for us if we can get involved with them. Moreover, the other party has the intention to invite us this time, so I helped you agree.”

“This is the detailed information.” Jiang Chi took out a document and handed it to Murong Qiao.

Although CG was thriving now, they could only stare at the top resources from afar. They had yet to reach the high-end threshold.

If they could do it well this time and obtain the cooperation, it would be a huge improvement for them.

Murong Qiao nodded. “I understand.”

She had to go.

When Jiang Chi said this, Murong Qiao immediately took this matter seriously. She reached out and flipped open the document, planning to take a closer look. This way, when the time came to discuss cooperation, she wouldn’t be at a loss and mess things up.

In the end, when she flipped it open, she saw an old acquaintance from the competitors column.

“Ke Run is also among the partners’ choices this time…” Murong Qiao raised her eyebrows.

The matter of her being accused of plagiarism was not over yet. Murong Qiao was about to deal with him when she unexpectedly “met” him again here.

What a coincidence.

Murong Qiao recalled the information she had seen about Ke Run and suddenly had a plan.

“I remember that in the previous investigation, Ke Run seemed to have an intimate relationship with many artistes in his company.”

No brand would neglect to check a prospective partner’s reputation when working together. Once a stain appeared on the white paper of reputation, it was obvious at a glance.

“I wonder if his jealous wife knows about this—” Murong Qiao chuckled.

Ke Run had a problem that all men did. He was lecherous.

He was the vice president of an entertainment company. Every day, he met beautiful female artistes. It was impossible not to be tempted.

Especially after being with his current wife for eight years, his relationship with her was already cold and no different from a stranger’s. Ke Run had cheated on his wife many times.

Artistes needed resources, and Ke Run needed a gentle beauty to listen to him talk about his troubles. There were too many people in the company who hit it off with Ke Run, let alone the other party was the Vice President.

Murong Qiao’s words didn’t need to be said explicitly. She looked up and exchanged glances with Jiang Chi.

“I understand,” Jiang Chi replied.

Murong Qiao nodded in satisfaction. She had yet to settle the score for the previous plagiarism accusation. She could give the other party a big gift this time.

The brand’s news conference was scheduled for the next night.

This news conference was very important, so the event held was especially big. Many people in the industry came back to participate, and the artistes also showed their faces in front of the media.

When Murong Qiao arrived, the news conference had already started for a period of time and the atmosphere was getting warmer.

When she walked into the venue in an evening dress, many people around her immediately looked over.

Murong Qiao walked in with an indifferent expression under everyone’s gazes. Before she could take a few steps, she saw a man dressed very trendy walking towards her and waving his hand to greet her.

“Hello, hello. I’m Kevin, the person-in-charge of this news conference.” Kevin introduced himself openly.

He looked a little unrestrained. When he walked over, he wanted to open his arms and hug her, but seeing that Murong Qiao didn’t have that intention, he stopped. However, there was still a lot of curiosity and admiration in his gaze when he looked at her.

Murong Qiao nodded in response. “Hello, I’m Murong Qiao, the boss of CG.”

“I know, I know. I was also one of Young Miss Murong’s audience a few days ago. I didn’t miss a single scene of the show.” Kevin clearly had a good impression of her.

However, the small talk didn’t last long before Kevin turned to the main topic of this news conference.

“We’re lucky to be able to invite Young Miss Murong to the news conference this time. Later, we’ll put this season’s new products on display for everyone to understand. At the same time, this is also a product we plan to engage artistes in the future to promote.”

When Kevin mentioned the collaboration, he immediately became much more serious. “I’ve also seen the works of some CG artistes before—”

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by footsteps that took the initiative to walk over.

“Isn’t this Kevin? It’s been a long time!” A carefree laughter interrupted Kevin’s words.

Murong Qiao wasn’t sure if she’d seen wrongly, but she felt that when Kevin heard this laughter, his face seemed to reveal a little frustration.

It was as if he was very unwilling to talk to the owner of the laughter.

Murong Qiao looked curiously in the direction of the voice and saw the photo she had seen a few days ago.

Ke Run.

The other party was dressed in a suit and leather shoes. This middle-aged man was still dressed frivolously, and the smile on his lips looked a little cunning. At first glance, Murong Qiao couldn’t help but frown.

In reality, he was even more annoying than in the photo.

While she was evaluating in her heart, Ke Run had already walked closer to the two of them.

“Long time no see.” Since the man was standing in front of him, Kevin couldn’t say anything else and could only reply.

Unlike Kevin’s unenthusiastic response, Ke Run patted Kevin’s shoulder like a good friend when he saw him. Then, he deliberately looked at Murong Qiao, as if he was showing her his good relationship with Kevin.

“I’m sorry, I’m sorry. I only realized that Young Miss Murong was here when I got closer.”

“I’ve heard a lot about you. You’ve managed CG well.” Ke Run’s expression was as usual.

If not for the fact that Murong Qiao had found out that the other party had schemed against her, she would really think that this was only the first time they had met and they had never interacted.

Murong Qiao reluctantly echoed his performance. “Hello.”

Seeing her respond to him, the smile on Ke Run’s face deepened. He turned to look at Kevin beside him.

Ke Run deliberately said, “We’ve talked about this news conference before.

Shall we talk privately later?”

“I’m afraid that’ll have to be after the news conference.” Kevin pushed the issue to the side..

He didn’t have a good impression of Ke Run.

This Vice President, who had relied on his wife to obtain his current status, didn’t have a good reputation in the circle. However, the other party had an acquaintance in their brand, so Kevin couldn’t throw a tantrum.

Kevin really didn’t want to tangle with Ke Run, so he casually found an excuse and said that the news conference still needed someone to watch over it. Then, he gave Murong Qiao an apologetic look and turned to leave.

Therefore, only Murong Qiao and Ke Run were left standing together.

Ke Run, this sly old fox who was immersed in the business world, looked like he didn’t know anything and could even be an actor.

“Looks like Young Miss Murong is also here to discuss cooperation this time?” Ke Run chuckled and took the initiative to ask.

As he spoke, his gaze landed on Murong Qiao. He sized her up vaguely, making Murong Qiao take a step back uncomfortably and distance herself from him.

Murong Qiao’s expression turned cold. “Looks like we have the same goal.”

She had no intention of paying attention to such a person. Unfortunately, Ke Run was like a disturbing fly that insisted on sticking close to her..
