The Schoolgirl Secret Agent

Chapter 363: Playing The Pity Card—No One Bullied Me

“Psh, you? Ling Yichen, look at yourself, I think you should just forget it!” Chen Xinyi sassed him when she saw Ling Yichen poking his nose in as well.

Then, both Chen Xinyi and Ling Yichen started roasting each other.

Yun Jian did not say more to that but her curved lips were evidence of her current jolly mood.

“Hey, hey, do you guys know? I heard that the director of New Cruise will join the dinner tonight too! Just don’t know when…”

As Yun Jian and friends passed by the guests who were chatting idly on the side, they caught the topic of their conversation coincidentally.

“Ay, really? The director of that household name, New Cruise, is coming too? I heard that the company’s always been under the management of someone named Zhang Zhifan. The director of New Cruise is very mysterious!”

Another whispered remark.

To be honest, Yun Jian perked up and paid attention when she caught people talking about New Cruise. It was her company after all. It was different.

“Hah, master, they’re discussing about your…” Company was what Zhang Shaofeng did not say as he caught his tongue.

Zhang Shaofeng, Chen Xinyi and Ling Yichen learning from Zhang Zhifan was something Yun Jian had allowed a long time ago.

Despite that, Zhang Shaofeng knew how much commotion it would stir up if he announced Yun Jian’s identity, so he had only made a brief mention—the implication of his words was obvious anyway.

“Mn,” Yun Jian hummed her reply before walking forward as she moved past the group who were still chatting on the same topic.

Yun Yi was confused by the conversation but stroking his nose, he followed his sister. No matter how he thought of it, he would never dream that his younger sister was the director of New Cruise!

The fancy evening party had long begun as it was none other than guests meeting up and chatting while they helped themselves with some refreshments and desserts or danced.

“You’re all here!” Zhang Qishan who had wrapped up his conversation with the person earlier came to Yun Jian and others who were sampling the desserts.

“I was discussing some matters with a business partner just now, so I couldn’t pay much attention to you all. My apologies!” Zhang Qishan stood in front of the teenagers and even politely flashed an apologetic smile at them.

To which, Yun Jian responded with equal courtesy.

“I should thank you, girl. You aren’t even charging any fee for teaching my son…” Zhang Qishan said but faded into a pause.

“I’m not trying to make money by taking in disciples, so it’s only expected that I don’t take a fee,” Yun Jian said smiling with a nod.

Zhang Qishan was a nice man as he was genuinely amiable to the teenagers.

“Uncle!” Song Shanshan’s grating voice came again.

Although many of the guests had seen Yun Jian tying up Song Shanshan just now, Zhang Qishan who stood farther away did not catch anything due to the size of the venue.

“Hmm? Shanshan, what is it?” Zhang Qishan snapped his head around and asked with a frown when he saw how upset Song Shanshan was.

“It’s nothing, uncle. I’m fine, no one bullied me for coming from the countryside, I’m really alright.” Song Shanshan cast her eyes down as she forced a drop of tear.

Facing Zhang Qishan, Song Shanshan had always put up the façade of a soft weakling.
