Inheritance of Two Trillion-Chapter 2162 - 1648: It’s All a Misunderstanding, Do You Believe It... (Part 2)
This sentence also means that she is no longer involved in this competition, Ambray has abandoned this collaboration!
After smiling and expressing his gratitude, Cui Chen glanced at Bai Xiaosheng, "I also believe this is going to be a great collaboration."
Bai Xiaosheng returned a smile to Cui Chen, affirming, "It will be."
Cooper also caught on, smiling and congratulating Cui Chen, "Being able to find a suitable partner for collaboration is a wonderful thing, congratulations Dr. Cui."
Cui Chen likewise expressed gratitude to Cooper.
With Caroline and Cooper leading the way, other business representatives and academics also stepped forward to extend their congratulations.
The scene immediately became lively.
Cui Chen was once again surrounded, overwhelmed with exchanges and interactions.
Of course, how many of those blessings are genuine and how many are insincere, is unknown.
The crowd was too large, so Bai Xiaosheng had to greet Cui Chen first, then hastily explained some things to Cui Xuexue before taking Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying to "escape" from Cui Chen, this "hot zone."
However, because Bai Xiaosheng had clearly expressed his friendship with Cui Chen, and made such a display earlier, he was also surrounded warmly by many people.
Amidst such bustle, Bai Xiaosheng kept smiling, repeatedly saying courteous words, feeling even more exhausted than mentally sparring.
After struggling out of the crowd, Bai Xiaosheng noticed that Caroline was in a similar situation, being surrounded.
But she dealt with it with ease, like a fish in water.
No wonder she’s running for election, smiling all the way like this, don’t her face muscles ever cramp...
Feeling wistful, Bai Xiaosheng noticed that Bai Yuefeng and Cooper were also surrounded by people talking.
"Xiaosheng, where are we going now?" Lin Weiwei couldn’t help but ask.
Bai Xiaosheng decisively whispered, "Let’s go over and greet Yuefeng, then we’re getting out of here."
Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying nodded in agreement with Bai Xiaosheng without hesitation.
Bai Xiaosheng took the two to finally get over to greet Bai Yuefeng.
Bai Yuefeng also wanted to leave but found it difficult to slip away since she had to go back to attend to the banquet upstairs; just leaving wouldn’t be appropriate.
Bai Yuefeng had a car and bodyguards here, with no safety concerns, and Bai Xiaosheng and the other two felt reassured.
They declined Bai Yuefeng’s offer to send a car, and the three quietly and swiftly left the banquet hall.
Upon leaving the banquet hall, the three let out a long sigh.
"I’ve attended more than one or two events of this scale, but being surrounded by so many people and overwhelming enthusiasm always makes me feel somewhat uncomfortable," Bai Xiaosheng sighed.
He is after all a young man with thoughts that might adjust in a few years.
"How about, Xiaosheng, you go back in to experience more, maybe you’ll get better at it," Lin Weiwei teasingly suggested with a smile.
Lei Ying decisively said, "I’ll be waiting for you outside."
With the two saying this, Bai Xiaosheng walked forward without looking back.
"Anyone who wants to go can go, I’m leaving anyway."
Today there were quite a lot of things happening, drank barely any alcohol, ate hardly any dishes, it was all about mental sparring. Overthinking aside, dealing with social niceties was simply torture.
Bai Xiaosheng naturally wouldn’t comply.
Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying exchanged smiles and followed along.
Their departure also caught the attention of some people, such as Cui Chen’s siblings, Cooper, and Caroline.
Once Bai Xiaosheng and his companions left, Caroline called one of her subordinates over and whispered something to him.
The subordinate nodded, then immediately left.
Caroline took a deep look at the entrance of the banquet hall before resuming her conversation with others with a smile.
Elsewhere.
After Bai Xiaosheng and the two took the elevator downstairs and walked into the hall, they were greeted by a group of bodyguards dressed in black suits, wearing sunglasses, and appearing serious.
"Please wait!"
One Caucasian among the leading bodyguards courteously addressed Bai Xiaosheng.
Bai Xiaosheng looked at the person in surprise, wondering, "You’re calling me? Do you know me?"
"You are Mr. Bai, aren’t you? Our young lady wishes to invite you to get in the car and have a chat." The person spoke again courteously.
"Your young lady?" Bai Xiaosheng was taken aback.
Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying also showed surprised expressions.
Where does another young lady suddenly come from?
Before Bai Xiaosheng could refuse, the person continued, "It’s Miss Caroline."
It was only then that Bai Xiaosheng realized.
Turns out these are Caroline’s people, and by the sound of it, from the family; otherwise, they wouldn’t refer to Caroline as the young lady.
Still, given Caroline’s not-so-young age, hearing such a title has some oddness to it.
"But I just saw Miss Caroline upstairs," Bai Xiaosheng wondered, "Could she be faster than us and already downstairs?"
The head bodyguard shook his head, "No, the young lady is still upstairs, but she’ll be down in half an hour at most. She invites you to wait in the car for a while."
Caroline must have seen me leaving and notified her people downstairs to wait for me via phone. Bai Xiaosheng understood.
However, Bai Xiaosheng had been wanting to find an opportunity to chat with Caroline.
Bai Xiaosheng smiled and nodded, "Alright then, lead the way, I’ll wait for Miss Caroline for a while."
The head bodyguard nodded respectfully, took a half-step back sideways, bowed, and made an inviting gesture.
The bodyguards following behind him also stepped aside, bowing slightly.
These people were clearly well trained in etiquette.
Bai Xiaosheng didn’t hold back, leading Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying to walk outside.
Guided by the bodyguards, Bai Xiaosheng saw Caroline’s convoy, business vehicles at both ends with a sedan in the middle, a costly customized model.
Bai Xiaosheng was invited into the middle sedan, while Lin Weiwei and Lei Ying were taken to other vehicles.
It is unknown how these people communicated and coordinated with the building management, but the convoy parked in a section of the front plaza, waiting.
