In the afternoon, Su Lingwei left the company first and went to the beauty salon for some skincare treatment to look more refreshed.
She then put on makeup suitable for the reception, aiming to attend in a good state and strive to secure investments.
Li Xinran called her, “Wei Wei, are you ready? I’m already here.”
“I’m ready,” Su Lingwei said. “I’ll be out soon.”
After hanging up, Su Lingwei walked out in her eight-centimeter high heels and saw Li Xinran waving at her.
“Wei Wei, over here.”
Su Lingwei hurried over, and Li Xinran looked her up and down, giving her a thumbs up.
“You look really good today.”
“I’m going to seek investment!” Su Lingwei followed Li Xinran into the car for the reception, not hiding her purpose.
Upon hearing this, Li Xinran immediately said, “If you need investment, just tell me. I’ll have my brother invest for you. How much do you need?”
Hearing Li Xinran’s tone of “How much money do you need, just say the word, and I’ll give you as much as you want,” Su Lingwei could tell that the Li family was very wealthy, much wealthier than the current Su family.
Li Xinran’s friendship with Su Lingwei was also genuine.
When Su Lingwei was in trouble, she was willing to help without hesitation.
She stepped in to help.
When Su Lingwei was in trouble in her previous life, she sincerely helped her.
Her feelings towards Su Lingwei were not just empty words.
Su Lingwei was very grateful for her sincerity and help, but she still didn’t want Li Xinran to find her big brother.
Over the years, the Li family had been involved in many projects, but they had never invested in the entertainment industry.
This involved some of the Li family’s secrets.
Li Xinran was nearly twenty years younger than her big brother and didn’t know about those things.
However, Su Lingwei accidentally learned about it in her previous life, so she didn’t want Li Xinran to find trouble for her.
“Xinran, your family’s projects have nothing to do with mine. It’s not something you can invest in casually. Don’t trouble your big brother for me. He has a hard enough time. I’ll figure out my own affairs.” Su Lingwei held Li Xinran’s hand and said.
Li Xinran pouted and complained, “What’s so hard for him? He just passes on the social obligations he doesn’t want to me.”
Su Lingwei smiled at her words.
She knew the reason why Li Xinran said this.
Tonight’s private business cocktail party was hosted by Susan.
Susan liked Li Xinran’s big brother, Li Bowen, but Li Bowen didn’t have that kind of interest in her.
He didn’t want to attend this private business cocktail party, so he passed the invitation to Li Xinran to go on his behalf.
It was clever of Li Bowen to let his sister deal with his pursuer, but Li Xinran was very unwilling because every time she met Susan, Susan was particularly enthusiastic towards her, which made her very uncomfortable.
So Li Xinran deliberately brought Su Lingwei along, so someone could help deal with it later.
They soon arrived at the villa where Susan was hosting the private business cocktail party.
Susan was dressed in a burgundy evening gown, standing at the door welcoming the arriving guests.
When she saw Li Xinran and Su Lingwei, she greeted them with a smile, “Xinran, Miss Su, you’re here, welcome, welcome.”
Then she looked to the side and didn’t see Li Bowen’s figure. A hint of disappointment flashed across her face as she asked Li Xinran in a low voice, “Is your big brother not coming?”
“My big brother had to go abroad for something last minute.” Li Xinran had witnessed Susan’s pursuit of her big brother’s enthusiasm, similar to Su Lingwei’s pursuit of Xiao Zhenyu in the past.
However, her big brother was completely unmoved by Susan’s pursuit, so every time she saw Susan, she felt sorry for her.
Faced with Susan’s enthusiasm, she couldn’t say anything to make her feel too sad, so she had to make up a reason to get through it.
“I didn’t hear him mention going abroad before.” Susan said disappointedly.
“The branch company had some unexpected issues, and he had to go.” Li Xinran could only continue with the excuse.
“Well, there’s nothing we can do about it.” Susan accepted the fact that Li Bowen couldn’t come and cheered up.
She said to Li Xinran and Su Lingwei, “Let’s go inside. Many friends have already arrived, some of whom you know. I’ll introduce you.”
Su Lingwei and Li Xinran followed Susan into the ballroom.
With Susan’s introduction, they met many investment tycoons, some of whom were seniors in the entertainment industry.
They were more familiar with Su Tianhe and Su Lingwei, but they didn’t know much about Su Lingwei.
Fortunately, with the help of the socialite Susan, Su Lingwei was introduced to everyone, and they were willing to give Susan face, saying that the niece was young and had the style of her father, a tiger father with no dog daughter, and so on.
Su Lingwei also dealt with them easily and received many business cards from them.
A staff member came to find Susan, needing her to handle some things.
Susan had to tell Su Lingwei and Li Xinran, “You can play by yourselves for a while. I’ll be right back.”
“Susan, if you have something to do, go ahead. Don’t worry about us.” Li Xinran smiled, but she was actually eager for her to leave.
Susan had been with her all the time, which made Li Xinran very uncomfortable.
Susan nodded at them and said, “Enjoy yourselves.”
She turned and walked away with the staff member.
Su Lingwei looked at the business cards in her hand and wanted to go back to talk to the several big shots she had just talked to, to see if they were interested in investing.
Just then, her vision suddenly went black, and a tall figure stood in front of her.
A familiar voice with a hint of a smile came into her ears, “I want to invest in Jiahe. Can we chat?”
