The moment she saw him, cracks appeared in her stark, black and white eyes. A mix of panic and fear flooded across them, intriguingly captivating.
More importantly, her clean demeanor seemed even more pure coupled with those eyes.
Jing Haohao lowered her eyelids, waited a bit, and not hearing Liang Chen speak, she subconsciously raised her head, only to have her gaze meet his directly.
Jing Haohao couldn't help but tremble and hid by Shen Liangnian's side.
Liang Chen, seeing this, curved his lips into a soft smile. His beautiful smile was like a mesmerizing mirage. As he looked at Jing Haohao, he spoke to Shen Liangnian, "Mr. Shen, have a seat, don't stand."
Shen Liangnian nodded, and sat down on the soft seat with Jing Haohao nestled in his arms.
Jing Haohao sat next to Liang Chen. Her nostrils inhaled the light, yet pleasant scent of the man next to her. It was similar to the scent that had pervaded her senses that night when he was on top of her. Each breath made her heart shudder violently.
Cong Rong was quite talkative, showering Jing Haohao with flattery: "Well done, Liangnian. No wonder you kept her hidden. You've indeed bagged an angel."
"I think Mr. Shen's girlfriend looks familiar, like I've seen her somewhere before." The leader from Beijing chimed in.
"Really?" Cong Rong blinked, his eyes traveled up and down Jing Haohao's figure before he exclaimed as if he just remembered, "Oh, I see...My niece had watched your TV series. Weren't you the supporting actress in that hit drama?"
"No wonder the name Jing Haohao sounded so familiar. She's an actress..." The leader from Beijing suddenly understood.
"Mr. Shen, that's not very fair. Your girlfriend outclasses most A-list actresses. You shouldn't just focus on making money. You should make her the leading lady and elevate her status as well. Let her get famous." As Cong Rong said this, he turned to Jing Haohao and asked, "Miss Jing, which agency represents you?"
Upon hearing her name, Jing Haohao instinctively raised her head. Before she could answer, Shen Liangnian stepped in, "TS Entertainment Company, otherwise she wouldn't be here at this birthday banquet."
"Then I suppose we have to ask Liang Chen, since TS Entertainment Company is his realm. Just one word from him would be enough to ignite Miss Jing's career and make her famous across the regions south of the Yangtze River." Cong Rong twisted his neck and turned his attention to Liang Chen.
Liang Chen, leaning against the soft backrest, chuckled at these words, "If Mr. Shen asks, I will gladly oblige."
Then pointing towards the wine bottle by Jing Haohao's side, he said, "Miss Jing, could you pass that?"
Upon hearing Liang Chen call her name, she sharply raised her head, paused for a moment, then picked up the wine bottle from the table and handed it to Liang Chen.
Before Liang Chen could take it, Shen Liangnian stroked her hair and said, "Silly girl, why don't you pour Mr. Liang a glass? He's just promised to promote you in TS Entertainment Company, hurry and thank him."
Only then did Jing Haohao grasp the wine bottle in both hands and poured wine into Liang Chen's glass.
Liang Chen's gaze never left Jing Haohao.
