Chapter 936: The Peak of Power

When Xia Wanyuan went out, she had already tidied up her makeup. Seeing that her neck was exposed, Jun Shiling forced her to wear the down jacket and hat and surrounded her tightly. Xia Wanyuan was helpless, but she followed Jun Shiling.

Only when Chen Yun welcomed Xia Wanyuan out of the car and accompanied her to the red carpet did everyone believe that this woman wrapped up like a bear was Xia Wanyuan, whom they had been looking forward to for a long time.

Considering that the temperature of winter was already below zero, the red carpet of the music festival was only about fifty meters long.

Xia Wanyuan stood in front of the red carpet and unzipped her down jacket, revealing the black diamond embroidered evening gown inside. The design of her body revealed her elegant figure, making it impossible to lower one’s gaze when it landed on her.

Just as everyone was marveling, in the blink of an eye, Xia Wanyuan crossed the red carpet, put on her tightly wrapped down jacket again, and disappeared from the camera.

[… Can’t you let us take a few more glances? Xia Wanyuan’s walking speed is amazing.]

[ I can tell that she’s very afraid of the cold, haha. Even if a beauty wears a big down jacket, I can tell how thin her waist is. I look at my waist. Forget it, I’m crying bitterly. ]

As the reporters stirred, Xia Wanyuan’s face appeared on the big screen. The guests in the venue looked in the direction of the entrance.

A walking down jacket sat on the seat by the side under everyone’s gaze.

“Who is that? So many people are paying attention.” In the first row of the venue, a famous young singer, Liu Xu, looked curiously in Xia Wanyuan’s direction.

…

That Xia Wanyuan. She’s been in the limelight recently. She’s in the entertainment industry and even used the name of retro when she released an album. I’ve heard her song before. It’s average.”

“Oh, doesn’t such a newcomer suddenly rise every year? The real amazing person is still our Miss Wei Qing.” Hearing others’ explanation of Xia Wanyuan, Liu Xu scoffed and turned to look at the woman sitting at the side ingratiatingly.

Wei Qing did not care about Liu Xu’s flattery. She looked in Xia Wanyuan’s direction. Coincidentally, Xia Wanyuan raised her head and her icy eyes met Wei Qing’s.

She’s quite good-looking, Wei Qing thought to herself. No wonder Old Madam Wei likes her.

After taking a look, Wei Qing retracted her gaze.

…

After everyone was seated, the music festival gradually began.

The annual music festival was not limited to the music competition in the entertainment industry. This was a grand occasion that gathered tradition and modernity. The ceremony specially invited the national first-class singer, Zhou Li, and the representative of the domestic pop music industry, Zheng Guang, to open the ceremony. The famous host of the national television station presided over the ceremony.

The works of the award-winning guests were displayed on the big screen. They were either dynamic or beautiful music that echoed in the hall.

Every guest who went on stage to receive an award had a long speech. When they were excited, their eyes would be filled with tears.

Listening to the guests’ cries, Xia Wanyuan’s only feeling was that it was cold. The air conditioner in the venue was turned on, but for such a huge venue, it was the same whether the air conditioner was turned on or not.

She tucked her hands in her sleeves. As she listened to the works of the award-winning guest, she thought of Jun Shiling. After all, Jun Shiling was really warm.

Xia Wanyuan took her phone out of her pocket and sent Jun Shiling a cat dazed expression.

Jun Shiling, who was talking to someone in the banquet hall, heard the message. He took out his phone and his expression softened. He replied to Xia Wanyuan before looking at the person in front of him. “Elder Yang, continue.”

“I really didn’t expect you to be such a good family man, Shiling.”

“Old Master Yang, you must be joking.” Jun Shiling took a glass of wine and clinked glasses with Old Master Yang. “I’m afraid you didn’t invite so many people today just to celebrate your birthday.”

“Sigh, you’re still so smart.” Old Master Yang sighed. “As long as the many juniors of our Yang family can have half of your ability, I won’t still worry at such an old age.”

Jun Shiling did not answer Old Yang. The capital had not been peaceful for the past two years. Old Yang had invited him over today with a clear goal. He was probably going to choose a team. However, he did not intend to accept Old Yang’s goodwill.

“Let’s not talk about it anymore.” Old Master Yang quickly concealed the dejected look on his face and made an inviting gesture at Jun Shiling. “I’ve prepared a table of food in the house. CEO Jun, please give me face.”

“Please.”

Inside the house, exquisite food was piled up on the huge dining table. There were a few people sitting at the table. There were rising stars in the domestic political scene and giants who could stir up the business world. Seeing Jun Shiling enter, everyone immediately smiled and walked over. They extended their hands to Jun Shiling. “CEO Jun.”

Jun Shiling ignored their outstretched hands and stood still. His eyes were deep and there was no emotion on his face.

“Shiling, we’re all in Beijing. We’re just making friends.” Old Master Yang chuckled and came out to smooth things over.

“Friend?” The corners of Jun Shiling’s lips curled up slightly. His fierce aura instantly pressed down on Old Master Yang. “Is Old Master Yang holding a treacherous banquet today?”

“Look at what you’re saying, Shiling.” Old Master Yang chuckled. He wanted to continue, but he was interrupted by Jun Shiling.

“Old Master Yang, you just want to tell me today that either the Jun family and the Yang family cooperate, or the Yang family will go against the Jun family.” Jun Shiling slowly revealed Old Master Yang’s thoughts.

“CEO Jun, what are you saying?” With every word Jun Shiling said, Elder Yang’s expression turned uglier. In the end, the smile on Elder Yang’s face could no longer be maintained, and the faces of the people standing at the side were even more colorful.

Jun Shiling looked down at everyone. His powerful aura suppressed them until they could not breathe. He loosened the buttons on his sleeves and his cold face had a domineering look.

“Then I might as well tell you that the Yang family doesn’t have to dream of cooperating with the Jun family. As for your alliance, you can try and see if you can touch my Jun family at all.”

After saying this, before anyone could respond, Jun Shiling turned to leave.

“Elder Yang, Jun Shiling is still a little young. Does he really think that the Jun Corporation is invincible just because it has a little money?” Seeing Jun Shiling leave, everyone’s expressions changed.

Those who could walk into this room were all influential figures outside. Everyone was a little unconvinced by Jun Shiling’s obvious humiliation toward them.

“Elder Yang, the Jiang family has been restless recently. In terms of strength, the Jiang family is not much weaker than the Jun family. If we work together to pull the Jun family down, this will be a huge piece of fat meat.”

In the entire China, who did not value the profitability of the Jun Corporation? It was a huge mountain of gold.

No one from the Yang family dared to stop Jun Shiling as he walked out. Not long after the chauffeur drove Jun Shiling out of the Yang family, the car suddenly shook. The chauffeur had hit someone.
