Chapter 160 - Uncomfortable Jiang Yingyue

When they entered into the venue, many turned to look, curious to see who had made an entrance now, and many were stunned by what they saw.

Jiang Yingyue was stunning, just like an immortal fairy, and Han Qingshan was as handsome as a deity. The two of them, next to each other, were indeed a perfect couple.

As they entered, many businesspeople suddenly brought their dates with them to give Han Qingshan a toast and to start discussing various projects they might be needing financial aid for.

Han Qingshan might be the CEO of Imperial World and thus not the one they should look for. However, he was also representing the Han Corporation, and they were investing in many different sectors. They were not specializing in just one.

Seeing that so many men were rushing towards them, Jiang Yingyue fell slightly, and the grip on Han Qingshan's arm tightened. Feeling her nervousness, Han Qingshan looked at her face, but nothing was betrayed in her expression.

He gently patted her hand to give her some assurance before he engaged in some in-depth business talk with various people from the different sectors who came to offer their ideas, in exchange for financial aid.

Originally, the plan was that they would be mingling like this after the auction was done. However, since they had seen Han Qingshan, they could not contain their eagerness.

Jiang Yingyue looked at the big round clock hanging on the wall and noticed that there was still half an hour before the auction would begin.

"I am going to touch up on my makeup," she whispered to Han Qingshan. She did not wait for his reply before she found the way towards a washroom.

As she found a washroom, she quickly washed her hands and looked in the mirror. She had never thought that she would end up as a woman again, and she sighed in wonder of how fate works in mysterious ways.

After looking in the mirror, she found that her makeup was still flawless and her hair was sitting perfectly. So after taking a few deep breaths, she calmed herself and got ready to deal with the businesspeople who were waiting for their turn to talk with Han Qingshan.

As she left, she quickly found Han Qingshan again. He was at the center of attention, so it was impossible to miss him.

A group of young women was standing by his side, some of them were even trying to coil themselves around his arms, and their faces were filled with such pretentiousness and flattery that Jiang Yingyue felt like puking.

It was apparent that these women, although nobles, were of the lower-ranked ones.

Their parents had paid a hefty sum for them to be able to be there today, and they were here to try and gain benefits for their families, preferably from the higher-ranked families.

Seeing that Han Qingshan suddenly paid attention to women, those people started feeling that they held a chance. And now, because he was too gentle to show any form of hostility, they had taken his kindness as a sign of approval for their behavior.

Jiang Yingyue felt upset. Looking at the women who were touching Han Qingshan she could not help but frown, especially when these women were the first to see her return, and a smug smile was plastered on their faces as they continued to act with such indecency.

Her lips pursed slightly as she walked towards them calmly. Jiang Yingyue did not doubt Han Qingshan's love for her, but she was not willing to see other women throw themselves at her man. And although a gentle smile still hung on her lips, it did not reach her eyes, which had turned terrifyingly cold.

Han Qingshan had not thought anything about these women who gently patted his arm, or tried to touch him. Although he disliked their touch, he was a gentle person with a sunny personality. He could not very well get mad at them for something so little.

However, when he saw them giggle as they looked behind him, he was curious as to what they were giggling at, and he turned around to see Jiang Yingyue standing there.

At first, he could not see what was different from before, but after looking a bit closer, he saw how cold her eyes were.

She gently returned to the circle of people who were talking, but she said nothing to Han Qingshan, neither did she look at him. Instead, she accepted a glass of juice from a waiter that walked past and slowly sipped at it while observing what was happening.

Han Qingshan felt uncomfortable. He could feel that Jiang Yingyue was not pleased, and he felt slightly panicked. Could something have happened to her while she went to wash up?

Jiang Yingyue and the other women were more than clear about what was going on, but she was not going to let them feel proud of what they had achieved, so she kept the polite smile on her lips and greeted the few people that came forward to greet her.

Everyone liked looking at beautiful things, and all of them were curious about Jiang Yingyue, especially all the men of the younger generation who came to greet her.

Suddenly a commotion broke out at the entrance, and when Jiang Yingyue looked over, she saw that Zhou Yan and his female companion had arrived.

Where Han Qingshan had allowed for Jiang Yingyue to hold his arm, these two had no physical interaction at all.. Jiang Yingyue and Han Qingshan were also wearing matching outfits, while these two were wearing stunning clothes, but they were clearly not matched.
