Chapter 2140: Unseen

“What time does it start?” Bo Yanching asked.

Nan Jiaojiao thought for a moment, “Ten o’clock, maybe.”

He glanced at his watch, “It’s still early, I’ll head back to the company for a meeting first, then come find you later.”

“Then I’ll show you the venue location.”

Nan Jiaojiao pulled him outside enthusiastically, Bo Yanching didn’t have the heart to expose her.

She hardly pays attention to these things.

As they opened the door, Pei Dongshi was about to knock, and after briefly meeting, he stepped back, “Perfect timing, come with me to the front.”

Nan Jiaojiao asked, “Will I be sitting with you?”

“Not temporarily, there’s a business partner coming, I have to accompany them and discuss some business. Once the contract is secured, I’ll come find you, our seats are next to each other, no names on them, but no one will sit there.”

At E.Y’s fashion show, Pei Dongshi’s seat is always without a name tag, and everyone in the company knows this unspoken rule. Besides, guests usually have their names on their seats, so there’s rarely any mistake.

“I was worried you might wander off without someone watching over you. Luckily, Bo Yanching’s here, so I can have peace of mind.”

Bo Yanching raised an eyebrow, “I need to head back to the company first.”

Pei Dongshi: “…”

Nan Jiaojiao said, “I don’t need anyone to watch over me. I know where the seat is, I won’t wander off. You go handle your business.”

Pei Dongshi didn’t believe a word of her assurance, but this girl in front of strangers acts well-behaved. If she’s left alone somewhere without familiar faces, she ends up behaving.

“The person in charge from Ni came looking for me.”

The three of them walked together, Pei Dongshi couldn’t bear to look at the two holding hands, standing at the edge, he had to reach over to press the elevator.

Without Nan Jiaojiao needing to ask, Pei Dongshi continued, “I didn’t meet them, I sent Qin Qing.”

The Ni show was just in the adjoining hall.

They couldn’t have known E.Y would be in the same exhibition hall. Given E.Y’s status, it’s always set in a fixed location. Previously, when online suppression happened, Ni parties tried to directly meet Pei Dongshi, without success, and then asked around for E.Y’s new show location, thinking they were discreet, which only drew attention. But Pei Dongshi pretended to be unaware and didn’t see it as a threat.

He did it deliberately.

On the same floor, even journalists knew which event to cover for major stories, not to mention Ni’s invited guests, who also received E.Y’s invitation along with a diamond bracelet gift.

Nan Jiaojiao has always been aware of Pei Dongshi’s true nature, seemingly unassuming on the surface. But if truly crossed, he is more spiteful than anyone and even resorts to green-tea gifts.

Hence, Ni’s hall was deserted, while E.Y’s was bustling. From Nan Jiaojiao’s first steps, her social anxiety kicked in; the crowd was dense, and she didn’t want to join the chaos.

“Jiaojiao!”

Yue Yu suddenly appeared with a group of female colleagues including Anna, jogging over to Nan Jiaojiao and linking her arm, “I thought you wouldn’t come!”

She wore a goose-yellow long dress, quite the standard style, with no special design at the neckline, not even bare shoulders, with sleeves covering the shoulders. Yue Yu’s face was cute, and she had good looks, her fair complexion suited this color, and her angular shoulders could support the dress.

“Why aren’t you wearing formal attire?”

Yue Yu’s family background was good, just good, the dress she wore cost thirty thousand yuan, bought recently, and she even complained about prices to Nan Jiaojiao, so her question was purely out of curiosity.
