Shangzhi. These two words were like a resplendent star to Xia Nation in recent years.
In a few short years, it’s development had taken flight very rapidly.
It had risen to the top of Xia Nation’s real estate industry within a very short time.
The boss behind Shang Zhi, however, was a mystery.
Everyone knew that it was a Mr. Mu.
Except that very few people knew his full name.
And now, it was actually… Mu Xichen?
Shi Yishen and Jiang Yeqing both turned to look at Mu Donglin.
Mu Donglin’s expression changed several times before he finally frowned. “Mu Xichen?”
“Eldest Young Master Mu, I trust you have been well since we last met.” Mu Xichen smiled and raised his glass at him. All of a sudden, he was approached by the other CEOs.
After his identity was revealed, many people who did not know who Mu Xichen was and did not come forward to greet him now streamed towards him, overwhelming the man.
Mu Donglin was annoyed. He did not expect Mu Xichen, whom he perceived as being poor and useless, would turn out to be the CEO of Shangzhi, a new company that Mu Che had seen as a thorn in his side.
At the age of 26, wasn’t he a little too young to be the CEO of such a large company?
Mu Donglin wasn’t the only one who had this thought.
Even the other CEOs couldn’t hide their contempt and suspicion.
However, after some conversation, everyone realized that this Mu Xichen was not simple.
He wasn’t a man of many words, but whatever he said was sharp and to the point.
Following that, someone started a discussion on a few topics around the business and subsequent developments. Mu Xichen often had unique insights.
Even the more elderly CEOs who thought highly of themselves held back their contempt and started to recognize him as an equal.
Shi Yishen had always enjoyed hanging out with Mu Xichen, and when he heard Mu Xichen talk about business, he was even more interested.
Needless to say, the same went for Jiang Yeqing. In his own words, he was just following Chief Mu to pick up the spoils.
However, whether he was really just picking up the spoils, only Mu Xichen and himself would know.
Right up till the end of the banquet, Mu Donglin had been unwilling to approach him for a chat.
Firstly, he couldn’t bear to lose face.
Secondly, he couldn’t accept the truth of Mu Xichen’s identity.
This wasn’t real!
Mu Donglin was drinking by himself as he watched Lily approach Mu Xichen with a glass in her hand.
Although he still hadn’t gotten over the shock, he started to gloat at the unfolding situation.
Ever since Ji Le’s CEO was bed-ridden, Lily ran the entire company.
However, this woman had no intention of being a widow at all. Whenever she saw a man she liked, she would seduce him into bed through dangling some sort of benefits.
From her reaction, it seemed that this woman had taken a fancy to Mu Xichen.
It wasn’t surprising. Few women would dislike Mu Xichen’s physique.
As expected, Lily went straight for Mu Xichen, swaying her hips seductively as she approached him.
When Jiang Yeqing and Shi Yishen saw this, they knew that something was wrong.
Sure enough, as soon as Lily came over, she winked at Mu Xichen and said, “I didn’t expect Mr. Mu to be so accomplished at such a young age and have such an extraordinary manner of speech. As expected of Mr. Mu Che’s son. Your father and I are long-time acquaintances. Usually, I only see your brother, but this is the first time I’ve seen you. I didn’t expect…” As she spoke, she put her hand on Mu Xichen’s. “You’re more attractive than your brother, Mr. Mu. “
