âMy friend told me,â Jian Yiling answered.
âWhat friend of yours can know XDLâs business secrets in advance?â the woman had an expression of disbelief on her face.
However, Jian Yiling stopped answering the womanâs questions. She did not feel obligated to answer them. These were her own private matters.
âHey, Iâm asking you a question. Can you not hear me?â the woman asked discontentedly.
Hu Jiaojiao huffed: âThatâs our business. You can ask but we have the right to not answer your questions!â
Hu Jiaojiaoâs mother: âYes, yes. We can choose to not answer.â
Upon hearing this, the woman gritted her teeth and said: âTch, who do you think you are.â
Then, she withdrew her eyes.

At the end of the launch event, Jian Yiling received a message on her phone.
[Iâm glad that you were able to attend. I assumed that you wouldnât be attending. Would you be free to have a meal together?]
[The launch was a success. Letâs have a meal together next time.] Jian Yiling replied.
[The launch was only a success due to its products. Weâre still relying on you. When will you return to our research and development team to participate in the development of the new product?]
[Iâve been quite busy lately.]
[Please contact me when youâre free. It doesnât matter if itâs in the middle of the night. I donât mind being woken up by you.]
[Send me a few boxes of the new product.]
[You can have as many boxes as you want. Are you sure youâre not free for a meal? Are you that heartless?]
[Iâm not heartless. Next time.]
[Alright. Contact me whenever youâre free.]
Jian Yiling put her phone away. Then, she turned around to look at Hu Jiaojiao and Hu Jiaojiaoâs mother who was howling in grief. They failed to purchase a lot of products today.
âAhhh⦠The water for hair growth. Letâs buy it when itâs available on the official website. We must save your fatherâs hair loss!â
âYeah. I will follow the official website closely. I want to see my fatherâs hair again.ân/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
Hu Jiaojiao and Hu Jiaojiaoâs mother were having a serious discussion about Hu Jiaojiaoâs fatherâs hair loss.
At this moment, a woman bumped into Jian Yiling.
As Jian Yiling backed away, the thin heel of the womanâs high-heeled shoes stepped onto Jian Yilingâs sneakers.
Jian Yiling raised her head and noticed that it was the woman who had been seated next to them.
The woman sneered contemptuously at Jian Yiling before she attempted to walk away. It appeared as though she had no intention of apologizing.
âApologize,â Jian Yiling said as she stopped the woman.
She ordered the woman to apologize. However, as she spoke in a soft voice, Jian Yiling was not intimidating at all.
The woman laughed before she said: âApologize? Why should I apologize? Youâre blocking my way for no good reason. I will call the security guards.â
Jian Yiling: âYou bumped into me and then you stepped on my shoe. You should apologize.â
There was an obvious imprint from the heel of the womanâs high heels on Jian Yilingâs white sneakers.
âAnd so what if I donât apologize? Do you plan to call the police? Well, go ahead!â the woman mocked.
Upon hearing this, Hu Jiaojiao said angrily: âHow can you be like this? Youâre so unreasonable!â
âWell, you can go to the police! Tell them to go and sue me for not apologizing to you for stepping on your shoe.â
The noise caught the attention of the security personnel at the launch site.
They came over to maintain order.
âExcuse me. How can I help you?â
Hu Jiaojiao huffed before she explained to the security personnel: âThis woman bumped into my friend and stepped on her shoes.. However, she refuses to apologize.â
