“In a short while, we will let you show off one of your intangible cultural crafting skills. Are you prepared for it?”
While they were resting, Dinghua and Jiang Yuning leaned in as they started chatting with one another. The old lady happily held her hand as she asked her.
“Don’t worry.” Jiang Yuning made an okay gesture before she said, “I have already practiced in secret…”
At this time, one of the investors suddenly reminded, “Jiang Yuning, you should not be making small talk here. You should be taking care of the foreign guests.”
Jiang Yuning and Dinghua both raised their heads before they exchanged glances with one another. A young man in his early thirties who was representing his company was standing in front of them.
Jiang Yuning raised her eyes and smiled before she replied, “I think that the service here at the venue is already sufficient.”
“Isn’t your mission here today to accompany the foreign guests and make sure that they are comfortable?” the young man asked.
As soon as his words fell, Jiang Yuning immediately knew what he was trying to say. Dinghua also understood his intentions and she knew that he was full of malice.
“I am sitting here today as a cultural heritage communicator. I am representing my grandfather and the inheritance and protection of the intangible cultural heritage of my country,” Jiang Yuning replied in a straightforward manner. “Moreover, I have a suggestion for you, sir. If you are free, you can go and climb one of our famous mountains in Luo City. When you reach the summit, you will find out something that is really interesting.”
“What is so interesting about that?”
“You will find out that the moon is actually still big and round over here.”
The other party suddenly understood that Jiang Yuning was actually taunting him.
“We are the host…”
“Yes, we are the host. That is also the reason why we have already arranged for all the foreign guests to stay in the most comfortable and luxurious hotels. Besides that, we are already providing very considerate services for our foreign guests. Isn’t that enough?” Jiang Yuning asked the other party immediately.
“Wow. You are just a small little artiste and you really think that you are really full of yourself.”
The other party sneered in anger.
After listening to the other party’s words, Dinghua was actually getting angry and she was about to lose her temper. However, Jiang Yuning squeezed her hand gently before she glanced at the man’s nametag and said, “I will remember your name, and I will also demand to know which traditional craftsmanship is so admirable to send someone like you here today. I will definitely make a phone call personally to ask about this matter after this event today.”
As soon as the other party heard that Jiang Yuning wanted to make a phone call to inquire about him, he was so shocked that he broke out in cold sweat immediately.
Jiang Yuning observed the sudden change in the other party’s behavior and she was even more certain that this person was not an inheritor of any traditional craftsmanship. He was probably just an amateur who was attending the event today.
“I cannot outtalk you.”
“But I remember your name.” When Jiang Yuning replied, she was smiling with a sharp expression on her face, as though she was hiding daggers behind her eyes. “Some people do not have any virtues at all and I don’t think that this kind of person is suitable to attend such a sacred and proud occasion.”
The man was utterly defeated at this time and he had no choice but to apologize to Jiang Yuning. “I am really sorry, Miss Jiang. Please forgive me for my indiscretion.”
Dinghua wanted to speak again but Jiang Yuning held her hand again before she glanced at the man with a cold expression on her face. It was as though she was telling him, sorry but it was already too late for any regrets.
“Young girl, that was excellent! We are already prosperous and it is really great to know that the new generation is still so confident about our own culture and heritage!”
Jiang Yuning had a soft expression on her face as she continued to communicate and chat with Dinghua in a low voice. From the beginning to the end of the seminar, Jiang Yuning did not bother attending or communicating with any of the foreign guests at all. After all, she knew that they were already given the best care and support and there was no need for her to personally step in at all.
Secondly, she did not think that she was too much because this was her home court after all. As the host, if she was not slightly arrogant, then she would definitely face a lot of pressure from the foreign artistes.
Jiang Yuning only had one goal in mind. She would earn back as much face and reputation as the previous artiste lost in the cultural exchange meeting before this.
