Chapter 492: 492
Two weeks later, Jingdu International Convention and Exhibition Centre .
China’s “International Weapons Exhibition” banquet .
A silver Rolls Royce Phantom came up to the doors of the International Convention and Exhibition Centre, and an elegant young man and an ice queen stepped out from the car . They walked into the Centre .
“Isn’t that Thunder Horse Military Factory’s Xia Lei?”
“Isn’t that Vientaine Group’s Shentu Tianyin?”
“I heard the two of them got married in secret and they’re holding their wedding at the end of the year . ”
“What secret is that? The media covered that already . ”
“These two really look good together . I'm so envious . ”
“Xia Lei can’t be with Shentu Tianyin because of her money, can he?”
“What are you talking about? Xia Lei made his own money . He became a billionaire in the short time of over two years . Would a guy who’s so capable be gunning for Shentu Tianyin’s money?”
“I wonder what new weapon Xia Lei will bring out this time . He made waves in Moscow the last time . ”
“A small private business is lucky enough to enter the arms dealing industry . So what if he’s making waves? Xia Lei is just a little monkey who can’t shake the Heavens like the Monkey God, not with Hanwu Weapons and China Industrial Group keeping him down . ”
“You can’t say that . The times are changing . The country’s reforming itself too . I believe Xia Lei can make a name for himself in the arms market . ”
Discussions flowed, and some opinions were good, some bad .
These whispers were heard by Xia Lei and Shentu Tianyin but they did not respond . They treated these words like the wind . Their lives were theirs to lead, not anyone else, so these people could say what they want .
The wine reception being held in the Centre was luxurious and the space huge . There were already a lot of guests when Xia Lei and Shentu Tianyin entered the reception . Some of the guests’ gazes went to them and the situation was the same . People started whispering among themselves, talking about Xia Lei and Shentu Tianyin .
The two of them drew attention wherever they went .
This was because of Xia Lei’s handsomeness . His sturdy and well-toned body lines, his confidence and this special aura of his drew the attention of all . And Shentu Tianyin’s beauty was unparallelled . She had a great presence and after marrying Xia Lei, she was stained by love and her aura had an added tinge of sexiness to it . Her special status as the wealthiest woman in China also made it impossible for people not to notice her .
Whether it was looks, poise, or capability, Xia Lei and Shentu Tianyin were a perfect match . Their marriage was like a perfect combination and it made everyone envious .
Of course, there were those who saw this newlywed couple as a thorn in their side too .
Ye Kun and Mu Jianfeng were examples of people like these .
“That punk is here . ” A smile of distaste appeared in the corners of Ye Kun’s mouth . He was in the corner of the banquet hall . “He’s probably still enjoying the looks he’s getting with Shentu Tianyin, huh? He must be thinking of surprising everyone at the exhibition tomorrow, huh? Humph . What’s waiting for him is a painful lawsuit . ”
Mu Jianfeng held a glass of red wine in his hand and said softly, “Kun, is your team of lawyers prepared?”
“Of course they are . ” Ye Kun laughed . “We’ll just wait for Thunder Horse Military Factory to display their gun at the exhibition tomorrow . I’ll make sure that Xia Lei would have a one-way ticket to hell then . ”
“That’s good . I’ll go talk to an old friend . ” Mu Jianfeng walked away from Ye Kun’s corner .
Ye Xiaoqi brought a glass of orange juice over to Ye Kun . Her voice was gentle, “Have some orange juice, Chairman Ye . It’ll be better for your body afterwards when you drink alcohol . ”
“How thoughtful of you . ” Ye Kun reached out to take the glass, and he grasped her little hand as he did so . Her soft hand made him flood with lust as he recalled the exertions of the last night .
Ye Xiaoqi pretended to be shy . “I’m already yours . Who will care for you if I don’t?”
“Hm . That Katou Takasuke hasn’t contacted you?”
A trace of hate appeared in Ye Xiaoqi’s eyes at the mention of Katou Takasuke’s name . “Don’t talk about that bastard . He tricked me . I couldn’t contact him at all . ” After a pause, he added, “Don’t be mistaken, Chairman Ye . I only contacted him about company matters . I won’t give him a second look even if he kneels down before me right now . He can’t even compare to a toe of yours . ”
Ye Kun loved hearing that and he smiled as he said, “I told you that Japanese people cannot be trusted . You just be with me and you’ll have a good life . ”
“Yes . I’ll do whatever you want me to do . ” Ye Xiaoqi blinked flirtatiously at Ye Kun . She had her tricks in dealing with men .
“Let’s go . I’ll take you to see my rival . ” Ye Kun started walking in the direction of Xia Lei and Shentu Tianyin .
Ye Xiaoqi followed Ye Kun, and her gaze fell on Xia Lei . It was her first time seeing him, but for some reason, she felt like he was familiar . That build… that height… it was similar to Katou Takasuke’s . However, this feeling quickly vanished . The presence of Shentu Tianyin next to Xia Lei was too strong, and Ye Xiaoqi felt like she was being defeated somehow the closer she got to her . She could not look closely at Xia Lei because of this .
Xia Lei’s gaze fell on Ye Xiaoqi too but he just glanced at her and looked away . He had no feelings for a woman such as her, and he had just used her . There was nothing beyond that .
