Chapter 647: Chapter 647: Did I say something I shouldn’t have?
The assistant became more and more anxious as she looked at Estelle with pleading eyes, “I didn’t know how old Rong Yan’s boyfriend was, and subconsciously, I just assumed he was about the same age as Rong Yan, and then…”
How could she be so stupid.
To be able to afford to treat a group of employees at a place like Lan Club and to directly arrange for a private room, ordering many of the restaurant’s specialty dishes—how could such a man be close in age to Rong Yan?
If he looked decent and was young, why wouldn’t Rong Yan show him off like Rong Weiwei did in the circle, boasting about having a promising young boyfriend? Why let the online media write nonsense?
She was really too dumb! How could she be so dumb? She must have died from stupidity in her past life!
The assistant tapped her head and said with a mournful face, “Estelle, should I go out and look for Rong Yan and apologize to her?”
Estelle pursed her lips, holding back a smile, and stopped her, “No need to go.”
“But…” the assistant was restless, “I’m still worried about Rong Yan. It must be my fault. Rong Yan only stepped out to take a call after I asked if her boyfriend would come. She must be afraid that I would keep pestering her with questions when she gets back.”
Estelle held onto her, helplessly saying, “You really are overthinking it. Rong Yan’s boyfriend isn’t what you think… um… although his identity isn’t convenient to reveal, I guess he’s not the type you imagine.”
The assistant bit her lip and looked at her, “Estelle, have you met Rong Yan’s boyfriend?”
Estelle touched her forehead, feeling as if she had dug a hole and buried herself in it. She was just thinking about how to explain that Rong Yan’s boyfriend was not the older, overweight man she imagined when, suddenly, the door to the private room was pushed open. As the person outside came in, the lively private room became instantly quiet—
Mr. Li! Mr. Li! Mr. Li!
The assistant’s eyes bulged like she had seen a ghost, her mouth wide open, questioning if she was seeing things.
The others had expressions of similar shock, all frozen in place.
Their reactions were hardly better than the assistant’s.
All eyes were wide open, looking towards the doorway.
Only Estelle, who had known in advance, was a little better, just surprised that Li Shengxiao had actually come in person. After her brief astonishment, she stood up and gave up the seat next to Rong Yan, “Mr. Li, please sit here.”
She picked up her bag and moved to the opposite side.
The assistant’s wide-open mouth gradually closed, and, quivering, she too stood up, looking terrified and unsure of where to put her arms and legs.
“Mr. Li, Mr. Li, Mr. Li.”
The man who has ultimate power in Capital City, the head of Li Group. The senior above KT Entertainment!
She worked at KT Entertainment, and even though she was just a small fry, she at least knew who the top decision-maker was.
At KT Entertainment, she couldn’t even contact director-level individuals, but suddenly she was face to face with someone leagues beyond KT’s directors. Her palms sweated with nervousness. If it weren’t for the crowd, she would not have been able to control her trembling.
She jumped up to greet him, and her posture resembled that of an elementary school student seeing the head teacher—standing up straight and bowing her head.
Influenced by her, the others weren’t sure if they should continue sitting or stand up as well.
