Chapter 32
PS: Li Xingxing doesn't sound good, let's change it to Li Xinxin.
Li Xinxin was about to be angered to death by Liu Ruiqiu's rebellious behavior.
The marriage alliance with Jin Tan, the second young master of the Empire Group, was something she had spent a great deal of cost and connections to facilitate.
Their family's "RS International" clothing brand series, although famous in South Korea and a giant in the fashion industry, was still quite inferior compared to the Empire Group.
In addition, Li Xinxin needed her daughter to act as a bridge for win-win cooperation with the Empire Group.
She valued this marriage alliance very much.
And yet her daughter actually said she wanted to break off the engagement.
And even said she wanted to elope with this kid who suddenly appeared.
Although this kid was indeed very handsome.
Handsome enough that even a middle-aged woman of her age couldn't help but feel moved.
But can handsomeness be eaten as a meal?
Can he compare to the second young master of the Empire Group?
"Ya... Xiba! Daughter, you are truly confused!"
Li Xinxin scolded her daughter with a look of disappointment.
But when Chen Daojun walked past her.
She froze.
She caught a strong scent of hormones from this man... which was simply too fatal for a woman of her age.
For a moment, she even forgot how to speak.
Stunned for quite a while.
It wasn't until Chen Daojun walked away that she came back to her senses.
And at this time, Liu Ruiqiu mocked her mother triumphantly.
"Mom, why did you stop talking? Were you stunned by my Daojun Ouba's handsomeness?"
[The author checked and found that in Korean, father is called Appa, mother is not called Amma, but Eomma; Oomma is closer.]
"Ya ya ya! Of course not! Liu Ruiqiu, what nonsense are you talking about! I'll tear your mouth apart!"
"Hee hee hee, Mom is flustered."
"Ah, Xi... truly annoying, how did I end up with a daughter like you."
Li Xinxin was very depressed.
A child in the rebellious phase is truly hard to manage.
"Having said that, such a handsome young boy is truly rare to see..."
Li Xinxin quietly sized up Chen Daojun's tall, straight, and broad back.
And secretly swallowed her saliva.
She had been divorced for many years and had been single all these years.
It was only recently that she planned to marry Cui Yingdao's father.
If she could find such a young boyfriend...
And Chen Daojun passed by several more noblewomen and young ladies.
Amidst their unblinking, restless gazes.
He arrived in front of his mother, Li Hairen.
"Mom."
He bowed slightly.
"Daojun, you finally came." Seeing her youngest son's arrival, Li Hairen felt as if she had found her backbone.
"Yes, Mom was almost wronged, fortunately, I arrived in time."
Chen Daojun carefully sized up this convenient mother.
Although she was in her early forties.
But because she lived in luxury and was well-maintained.
She still looked as young and beautiful as a woman in her thirties, mature and charming.
No wonder that convenient old man was willing to be expelled from the family by the old man just to marry her.
Although his current body had no blood relationship with Li Hairen.
But at least he was walking around under the name of her son, Chen Daojun.
The respect that should be there was still necessary.
He came today to stand up for Li Hairen.
So after sitting down next to Li Hairen.
He immediately spoke up and questioned Chen Huarong: "Aunt, why do you insist on making my mother walk the runway? She is not a servant or maid of your Soonyang Department Store."
"Are you doing this to deliberately humiliate her?"
Chen Daojun's straightforward way of chatting.
Also left Chen Huarong stunned.
She didn't expect Chen Daojun to be so tough.
Actually saying such things in front of everyone.
This made her face lose some of its composure.
Although that was indeed what she was thinking.
But you can't just say it out loud so openly and blatantly!
Wouldn't doing so be disrespectful to her?
Leaving her in a passive position?
Chen Huarong loved face the most.
Chen Daojun's move undoubtedly put her in a difficult position, making it hard for her to step down.
Young people really don't play by the rules!
Chen Huarong felt as uncomfortable as if she had eaten a fly.
But on the surface, she could only force a smile and reply: "Daojun, don't misunderstand your aunt. I just wanted Hairen to see more of the world and get familiar with the fashion show process."
"Besides, Hairen was a popular star in the entertainment industry when she was young, and after so many years, she is still so well-maintained, and her figure is also quite good."
"Letting her be a fitting model is just right to set off our new fashion show styles. Aunt was even planning to hire your mother as a special spokesperson for our fashion show!"
Chen Huarong's brain turned quite fast.
She immediately thought of this seemingly legitimate reason.
But Chen Daojun didn't buy her act.
Instead, he sneered and said: "Then how much does Aunt plan to pay for the endorsement fee? Is there a contract? Can I see it?"
Three soul-searching questions.
Instantly paralyzed Chen Huarong.
She cursed the stinky brat in her heart.
Chen Daojun was determined to tear down her stage today.
Her face turned red and then white.
Suppressing her anger and fury.
With so many noblewomen and young ladies watching.
What would it look like if she lost her temper on the spot?
Wouldn't she be laughed to death if it got out?
"Haha... Daojun, don't be in such a hurry. Things like contracts, of course, have to be discussed in private."
"We are a family, Aunt will definitely not treat your mother badly."
Chen Huarong said with a kind face, very hypocritically.
Then she started to change the subject.
"Let's not talk about this for now. Since Daojun is here, let's watch the show together."
"You are the only man among this group of noblewomen and young ladies, how about it, is there anyone you like? Aunt can help you bridge the gap."
Chen Huarong said with a smile.
But Chen Daojun didn't buy that act at all.
However, he didn't want to make the scene too ugly.
He didn't speak again for the rest of the time.
Just accompanied his mother, Li Hairen, to watch the show.
In addition, he occasionally flirted with his sister-in-law Mao Xianmin and Liu Ruiqiu.
Mao Xianmin blushed, her eyes dodging and hiding.
Afraid of being seen.
After all, Daojun's mother, Li Hairen, and aunt, Chen Huarong, who were present, both knew that she was Chen Xingjun's wife.
If they noticed that she was having dealings with Chen Daojun, it would be over.
"This bad guy, he is clearly teasing me on purpose..."
