Chapter 1631: Chapter 569: A Fleeting Glance, Su Yu_3

Lin Muxue casually took off her coat, draped it over the back of the sofa, and reached for the champagne bottle, shaking it at Shen Yuyan.

”Welcome to Xiang River, Shirley. Would you like to have a couple of drinks together?”

”Sure.” Shen Yuyan smiled and sat down on the single sofa across from her, accepting the handed wine glass.

Champagne was gently poured in, the liquid effervescing with delicate bubbles.

”Ding~~”

The cool wine slid down the throat, exuding a faint fruity fragrance.

The two exchanged a knowing smile, emotions silently surging beneath the surface.

After a moment of silence, Shen Yuyan put down the glass and spoke in a lighthearted and sincere tone, ”Luna, I’m really super curious... How are you so close with President Mo of Tangzong Entertainment? I’m really amazed by your connections, it’s incredible.”

Lin Muxue didn’t reply immediately but leaned slightly forward, resting her elbows on her knees with a casual yet provoking expression as her red lips parted slightly.

Instinctively, Shen Yuyan also leaned forward, her gaze fixed on her eyes, trying to capture any clues from her expression.

Their exquisite faces were separated by less than ten centimeters, their breaths mingling as the scent of champagne dispersed in the air.

Putting aside the friction between them, the scene was exceedingly beautiful.

”—Not telling you.” Lin Muxue slowly opened her mouth.

With that said, she burst into laughter, her body shaking with amusement, completely relaxed.

Shen Yuyan’s eye twitched, her hand holding the wine glass subtly tightening.

She silently chanted to herself, ”Don’t get angry, don’t get angry, if I die of anger, who will be satisfied...”

Lin Muxue smugly took another sip of champagne, stood up, and stretched lazily with elegant yet relaxed movements, ”I’m going to take a shower and soak in the bath. What do you want for dinner? It’s on me.”

”No need, I’ve already made plans with a classmate.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Muxue’s eyes lit up, ”What classmate? Can I tag along?”

She hadn’t had the chance to show off her black card in front of Shen Yuyan yet!

One person to impress, two people to impress!

”Haha.” Shen Yuyan was almost amused by her, ”High school classmates, we’re just catching up, let’s hang out next time.”

Lin Muxue pouted and shook her head regretfully, ”Alright, then have fun.”

With that said, she hummed a tune and sashayed into the bathroom, her figure as light as a cat stepping to the beat.

Watching her retreating figure, Shen Yuyan bit her lip, suppressing the emotions trapped in her chest.

Just then.

”Riiing—” The phone suddenly rang.

[Bai Menglin]

Shen Yuyan quickly composed herself, picked up the phone and answered, ”Hello, Menglin.”

”Yuyan, sorry, it’s been a busy day. I just saw your post on your Moments. Have you arrived at the hotel?”

”Yes, I just got here, at the Four Seasons Hotel in Central, about a few hundred meters from your company.”

”Wow, that hotel is not cheap, no wonder you’re our self-made little entrepreneur boss!” Bai Menglin teased with a laugh.

”It’s alright.” Shen Yuyan chuckled, not saying much more.

”By the way, Yingying is also coming to Xiang River soon, it’s going to be lively.” Bai Menglin’s tone was light and slightly nostalgic, ”I didn’t expect us to reunite in Xiang River rather than in Luo City.”

”Haha, I’m super looking forward to it too.”

”You guys can stay for a while, Yuyan, aren’t you quite interested in the financing circle? Just this morning, our VP mentioned that it’s quite lively over here recently, something big might be happening.”

Shen Yuyan paused for a moment before immediately asking, ”What do you mean?”

”A bunch of our major clients and important executives from our partners have been arriving in Xiang River one after another these past few days, like Guyu Biological, Tangzong Entertainment, Cloud Stream Real Estate... Even an important representative from the Tang Jin Family Office.”

”So many heavyweight players?” Shen Yuyan’s eyes lit up instantly, her entire being invigorated.

”Yes.” Bai Menglin’s tone was nonchalant, yet couldn’t hide the excitement, ”Judging by this lineup, it seems something big is stirring in the capital market. Join the fun, you might witness something significant firsthand.”

After exchanging a few words, the call ended.

Shen Yuyan stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window on the other side.

This suite was indeed excellent, not only overlooking Victoria Harbour but also offering views of Kowloon and Tai Ping Mountain.

Guotai Junan International, where Bai Menglin worked, was nearby at New Era Square, within sight.

Her gaze leaped between the skyscrapers, her spirits stirring.

Many thoughts raced through her mind instantly.

Mo Xiangwan from Tangzong Entertainment coming to Xiang River, and Tang Song also heading here.

Are their appearances here related to these capital movements?

Moreover, the companies Bai Menglin mentioned seem all to be connected to Smile Holding.

For instance, Guyu Biological, a Hong Kong-listed biotech leader worth hundreds of billions, is much larger than Ji Yingying’s Zhifang Medical by more than a factor of ten.

The major shareholder is Smile Holding.

The current chairman, Li Shiqin, is a close confidante of Chairman Jin.

Cloud Stream Real Estate and Tangzong Entertainment need no further mentioning.

If a capital upheaval is indeed about to unveil, could Rongliu Capital be involved?

After all, the shadow of Tang Jin lurks behind Rongliu Capital too.

”Thump thump thump—” Her heart began to race.

A flush rose on Shen Yuyan’s cheeks as a sudden inexplicable thrill welled up inside, an intuition as sharp as ever.

Her instinct told her that this trip to Xiang River would be far more tumultuous than she had anticipated.

...

PM.

Shen City, Qingning Technology Building.

”Bye-bye~ President Liu.” ”Goodbye.”

Liu Qingning followed the flow of people, her steps light as she exited the office building.

A gentle sea breeze, carrying a slight saltiness, passed through the gaps between buildings, ruffling her clothes and hair.

As night fell, the city’s neon lights gradually lit up, casting faint halos on the skyscraper windows.
