Chapter 1476: Chapter 530: Night of the Investors 2 (Tang Song’s Background)

”Jiayue, Nuonuo, what’s going on?” Xu Pengyuan asked cautiously after parking the car, with a hint of surprise.

Sun Jiayue’s eyes twitched slightly, ”N-nothing, just saw a friend.”

Xu Pengyuan followed their gaze and eventually landed his eyes on the man and woman.

”Uh... that guy driving the Lamborghini, is he your friend?”

”Yes.” Sun Jiayue bit her lip, not quite sure what to say.

Her emotions were extremely complicated.

She had specifically invited Tang Song to help earlier, but then canceled because of Liu Jing.

Now he suddenly appeared here, driving a Lamborghini, with an exceptionally outstanding woman.

Could it be that he’s here to attend the ’Investor Night’?

But... where did he get an invitation?

Next to her, Zhang Nuo whispered, ”That guy is Jiayue’s high school classmate.”

Upon hearing this, Xu Pengyuan’s expression froze instantly.

”The person you mentioned before... is him?”

His voice was filled with evident shock and a bit of undisguised disappointment.

Xu Pengyuan was close to Sun Jiayue, almost like a couple.

He had previously heard Zhang Nuo praise Sun Jiayue’s high school classmate for being handsome and charismatic.

Even though the other was just an ordinary programmer, which logically shouldn’t pose much of a threat, Zhang Nuo’s description always made him vaguely uneasy.

That’s why he introduced Liu Jing, specifically mentioning this ’Investor Night’ event.

Breaking the opportunity for the two to attend the event together.

Looking at the tall figure in the distance and noticing Sun Jiayue’s somewhat lost expression, Xu Pengyuan’s jealousy was completely ignited.

He couldn’t help but mutter softly, ”Jiayue, your classmate seems a bit vain, renting a supercar for appearances?”

Zhang Nuo frowned, ”Not necessarily, maybe it belongs to the girl beside him? Or another friend?”

”So what is he doing here today? Attending the event?” Xu Pengyuan smiled and explained to Liu Jing behind him, ”This is the old classmate Jiayue wanted to bring to pretend as a ’Tech Nouveau Riche’.”

”Oh?” Liu Jing raised his eyebrow, ”So it’s him; he seems to have quite a presence.”

”Ha, we just don’t know if he’s here because he got ditched, deliberately following us with friends to show off in front of Jiayue, trying to make her regret it?”

While they were discussing, Tang Song and the woman had already walked side by side towards the elevator.

Sun Jiayue exhaled lightly and said directly, ”Pengyuan, stop guessing. Tang Song isn’t someone who likes to show off; he must have his own reasons for being here today, unrelated to us. Brother Liu, let me take you to the registration area to get our entry badges first.”

”Alright, let’s go.”

The four of them got out of the car, took the elevator to the next floor, walked for a while, and successfully reached the main entrance number 7 of the conference center.

Liu Jing laughed, ”This event is quite particular, with such strict security checks.”

Xu Pengyuan echoed, ”Yes, after all, today’s event is quite large, many well-known institutions from the Yangtze River Delta have come, I’m sure Brother Liu will meet many new friends in the circle.”

Liu Jing nodded with a smile.

The four lined up for security checks as instructed, with staff politely inspecting their belongings and verifying electronic invitations.

The ground floor hall was spacious and bright, luxuriously decorated yet maintaining a minimalist style.

A giant LED screen was looping the event’s theme video, and several reception desks were neatly arranged, creating an orderly atmosphere.

Following the staff’s directions, the four headed towards the ’Investor Night Smart Future’ registration area.

Zhang Nuo bid farewell to the three, hurrying to meet with company leaders.

With the sign-in expanding, the registration area had already queued up a long line.

Liu Jing looked around with keen interest, suddenly pointing in a direction, slightly puzzled, ”Hmm? Isn’t that the classmate Jiayue mentioned? Why don’t they have to line up?”

Upon hearing this, Sun Jiayue and Xu Pengyuan both glanced in the pointed direction.

They saw a man and woman being accompanied directly by two staff members towards a quiet passageway.

Xu Pengyuan’s eye twitched slightly, exhibiting an air of awkwardness and panic.

Sun Jiayue took a deep breath, speaking with a complex tone, ”That area... is the VIP passage...”

This time, Xu Pengyuan refrained from making sarcastic comments.

His jealousy had peaked, and he wasn’t being foolish.

No matter the reason, if someone can obtain a VIP invitation, there must be an explanation.

This event was large, with many attendees.

For instance, large investment institutions or well-known investors were VIP guests, enjoying services far better than regular participants like them.

Ordinary attendees like them could only collect their badges after registration, showcasing minimal information like company/institution name ’Hengyue Investment’.

In contrast, VIP guest badges were custom-made ahead of time and shipped directly, representing a convenient, swift, and prestigious status symbol at the banquet, akin to a social business card.

Watching the figures disappear into the passageway entrance, Sun Jiayue experienced mixed emotions.

She was unsure about Tang Song’s identity for attending this event, but it was clear, he wasn’t as simple as she had thought.

And the woman beside him...

Could she have been the one bringing him along?

...

”Tap, tap, tap——”

Footsteps resonated clearly within the quiet corridor, finally stopping before a private elevator.

A dark gold warning line was draped around, with deep red carpets cushioning the floor; the entire elevator area appeared especially deserted, with only a few individuals standing, exuding an extraordinary aura.
