Jian Ai said truthfully. She was not guarded against Chen Lei at all.

If not for Century Group’s support, Jian Ai knew that her East Sea Real Estate would not have developed so quickly.

Chen Lei couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows. “In that case, Chairman Lu has learned about your company? Otherwise, he wouldn’t know your identity.”

Jian Ai nodded. “I think so too. Perhaps the Hongxiang Group noticed something, so they investigated.”

Jian Ai didn’t care. Her identity was not completely confidential. As long as someone wanted to investigate, they could easily find out.

!!

Only then did Chen Lei remember. He immediately looked enlightened. “I know. It must be because you were one of the top ten celebrity enterprises this year. Uncle Chen has to congratulate you too!”

Jian Ai smiled and said humbly, “Uncle Chen, don’t joke with me. I was also surprised to be named a celebrity enterprise. The reason for being on the rankings was because of two projects from East Sea Real Estate. These two projects are both supported by Century Group. This honor also belongs to Uncle Chen.”

Jian Ai’s attitude made Chen Lei like her even more. However, he still smiled and waved his hand. “That’s unnecessary. Century Group is also on the rankings. Uncle Chen won’t snatch your share!”

The two of them laughed. Their voices were neither loud nor soft, but it attracted many people’s gazes.

Chen Lei’s identity was naturally extraordinary, so everyone was curious about who this girl, who was talking and laughing with Chen Lei, was.

“Old Chen!”

At this moment, a burly man in a silver-gray suit suddenly walked over. His target was Chen Lei, who was chatting with Jian Ai.

When Chen Lei saw that person, he immediately revealed a passionate smile. He took two steps forward and greeted, “Old Xu, you’re here too!”

Xu Chu couldn’t help but give Chen Lei a meaningful look. Then, he shook his head helplessly and smiled. He said in a low voice, “He sent me an invitation. How can I not come?”

When Chen Lei heard this, he nodded with a smile that said ‘I understand.’ Then, he said, “Perhaps he wants to reconcile with you.”

“No.” Xu Chu quickly shook his head. “He would want to, but did he ask if I would agree to it?”

This middle-aged man called Xu Chu was the chairman of the famous construction material company in Baiyun City, Huagang Group. He had been Chen Lei’s business partner for many years.

Huagang Group was once a partner of Hongxiang Group. However, something happened in their previous collaboration, so they did not renew their contracts after the contract expired. They were in a deadlock until now.

“Old Xu, you came at the right time.” Chen Lei suddenly pulled Xu Chu to Jian Ai. “I’ll introduce you to someone. She’s also the person you’ve always asked me to recommend you to.”

Jian Ai was stunned. She didn’t expect the topic to suddenly return to her.

Xu Chu was also stunned. He looked at the girl in front of him and didn’t react to Chen Lei’s words.

Chen Lei introduced him to Jian Ai. “Xiao Ai, this is the chairman of Huagang Group. You can call him Uncle Xu. Didn’t you ask Uncle Chen to help you find a suitable construction material supplier for Hotel M? It’s the Huagang Group!”

Jian Ai couldn’t help but be enlightened. Although Bai Zhou was the one who completed these things, Jian Ai had naturally heard of the leader of Baiyun City’s construction material supplier, Huagang Group. She immediately extended her hand warmly. “Hello, Uncle Xu. I’m Jian Ai. You can call me Xiao Ai!”

Xu Chu subconsciously reached out his hand, but he did not react. It could be said that he had never thought of relating a little girl to a company.

Although he said hello, he thought that Chen Lei should quickly introduce her to him.

At this moment, Chen Lei said, “Old Xu, do you still remember telling me you wanted to get to know the CEO of East Sea Real Estate?”

Xu Chu nodded, but he frowned in confusion. “But I already know Manager Bai!”

Seeing this, Chen Lei couldn’t help but smile. “Manager Bai is the general manager, but the person in front of you is the CEO behind M Group!”

“What?”

Chen Lei spoke casually, but it shocked Xu Chu. He immediately stared at Jian Ai in shock for two seconds before saying, “You… Old Chen, are you joking with me?”

Jian Ai also smiled and quickly admitted, “Uncle Xu, Uncle Chen isn’t lying to you.”

Xu Chu gasped and subconsciously asked, “Xiao Ai, are you an adult?”

Jian Ai smiled and shook her head. “I’m fifteen years old this year, Uncle Xu.”

Xu Chu: “…”

Chen Lei admired Xu Chu’s expression with interest. In the end, he teased, “How is it? Now do you know why I’m willing to do my best to help a real estate company? Xiao Ai is the most promising teen I’ve ever seen.”

Xu Chu clicked his tongue and sighed. “Impressive, really impressive…”

At this moment, Chen Lei looked at the two of them and said, “I was the one who helped set up the collaboration in the past. Because Xiao Ai’s company had just been established and there was no construction material company that could be completely trusted, I helped to choose Old Xu’s Huagang so that the two companies could reach their first collaboration.”

“Now that you know each other, you can discuss things on your own in the future. Saves me some trouble.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Lei said to Jian Ai, “Xiao Ai, you can rest assured about the person Uncle Chen introduced. Old Xu’s reputation in Baiyun City is top-notch.”

Jian Ai smiled and nodded. “I naturally believe in both of you uncles.”

At this moment, Xu Chu joked with Chen Lei, “If we contact each other separately, won’t you lose a sum of money as a middleman?”

When Chen Lei heard that, he said, “I’ve never earned money from the two of you before.”

Jian Ai took the initiative to exchange contact details with Xu Chu. Xu Chu pulled Jian Ai along as if he had found a treasure and asked many curious questions.

Not far away, behind the floor-to-ceiling window on the second floor of the villa, Lu Youcai stood in front of the window and looked at the invited guests. To be precise, he was looking at Jian Ai alone.

From the moment Jian Ai appeared, he confirmed her identity.

At this moment, seeing that she was talking and laughing with Chen Lei and Xu Chu, two big shots in Baiyun City, and that she was calm from the beginning to the end without a trace of fear, Lu Youcai already thought highly of this girl.

It was by no means fortuitous that one was a winner. The success of a business required too many factors. For this girl called Jian Ai to reach this stage, she definitely had something outstanding about her.

“Dad!”

Just as Lu Youcai was thinking, a graceful girl in an evening dress suddenly pushed the door open and entered. It was Lu Youcai’s daughter, Lu Qiaoqiao.

Lu Youcai turned around and saw Lu Qiaoqiao spinning in front of him in a gorgeous outfit. Then, she smiled brightly and said, “Does your daughter look good dressed like this?”
