Charlene shook her head, snapping out of her thoughts.
No, she couldn't just sit back and wait for things to happen. She needed to take the initiative. Opportunities favored the prepared.
Watching Shu Pan's nervous and somewhat restrained demeanor, Charlene couldn't help but feel disdainful. How provincial. She was determined to find an opportunity to show her that the upper echelons were no place for an ordinary woman like her.
Shu Pan rarely attended such events. Suddenly facing such a magnificent venue and various upper-class individuals, she felt extremely uneasy. She was afraid of not doing well and embarrassing Gu Shaoting.
Gu Shaoting seemed to sense her nervousness. He spoke gently, "I'm here. Don't be afraid."
Yes, he was here.
Shu Pan couldn't help but straighten her posture, lifting her head.
As they reached the front of the venue, the banquet officially began.
