Full-time: The Strongest Sniper

Chapter 916 What Sister Ling Wants, Sister Ling Gets.

"Don't worry about that," Tang Rou said casually.

"How can you face your family with such an irresponsible choice?" Mr. Lü continued, his purpose was simple: he wanted to use such remarks to indirectly prove that these people were a bunch of worthless individuals.

After all, he knew he had already lost face, so what he needed to do now was to make the other person lose face too.

“You don’t need to worry about her family.” Just then, a calm voice rang out from the side. Everyone turned their gazes in surprise, and when they saw who it was, many were startled, while only a few greeted him warmly.

This was, after all, a very high-end cocktail party, and there were some people of similar stature among the attendees, but such people were only a small number. However, Liu Weiguo and his superiors were clearly among this small group.

The others were shocked. Even President Lü, who was still trying to make his presence known, had an incredulous expression when he saw the newcomers.

The newcomer was holding a wine glass. He nodded to the people who greeted him. As he walked, people instinctively made way for him. Then the man said, "I knew it was you who played the pianist when I heard the name."

The newcomer completely ignored President Lü, came to Tang Rou's side, and spoke gently to her.

"Hehe." A rare mischievous look appeared on Tang Rou's usually defiant face as she smiled at the newcomer.

"What brings you here?" the visitor asked curiously.

"I came here with my friends," Tang Rou said with a smile.

"Oh?" Upon hearing Tang Rou's words, the newcomer also joined Xiao Nai and his group.

The crowd exchanged bewildered glances. Everyone had their own guesses about Tang Rou's identity; Ye Xiu had even initially thought she, like him, had run away from home. After all, what well-off family would want their precious daughter working as a manager in an internet cafe? But given the circumstances of their meeting, that seemed highly unlikely.

"These must be your friends," Tang's father said with a smile to Xiao Nai and the others.

"Yes, that's right, Ye Xiu, Chen Guo, Baozi, Sister Ling, Jingjing, and Xiao Nai." Tang Rou also introduced her friends to her father.

"Hello, Uncle!" the members of Happy greeted.

"Hello," Tang's father greeted them in return. Then he said to Qiao Jingjing, "You must be the actress Qiao Jingjing. My wife really likes your work and often watches it with me."

"Thank you very much," Qiao Jingjing said. It's no wonder she's Qiao Jingjing; even Tang's father's generation has her fans.

Afterwards, Tang's father chatted briefly with everyone, mainly expressing his gratitude for their care. After talking with Xiao Nai and the others, Tang's father said a brief goodbye and headed towards Liu Weiguo and that leader, since they were the only people in their circle at this venue.

As for Tang Rou's father's identity, Sister Ling recognized him. After all, as an agent, she would eventually find out about some people, even if they hadn't had much contact with them. What surprised her was that Tang Rou was actually the eldest daughter of the Tang Group. At this moment, Sister Ling prepared to start persuading Tang Rou as soon as possible. After all, if Tang Rou retired from the entertainment industry, her father would ask her to go back and inherit the group, which was worth countless small fortunes, and then she would have no chance at all. "Go to the entertainment industry?" After Sister Ling's series of persuasions, Tang Rou couldn't help but think in this direction. She had indeed studied music, and she liked it quite a bit; otherwise, her piano skills wouldn't be so good. She had also learned singing briefly, although not in depth, but her teacher at the time had said that she had a good talent for singing. Moreover, she had seen the songs Xiao Nai wrote, and at least from her perspective, they were all excellent pieces.

"Sure, I could try my hand at the entertainment industry after I retire," Tang Rou said after thinking for a moment. She felt it was a good idea if they could continue working together towards the same goal after retirement, without having to separate. As for the intricacies of the entertainment industry, she wasn't worried at all. Firstly, Sister Ling was a professional in that area, and secondly, she had the resources to back it up—what was there to be afraid of?

What Sister Ling wants, Sister Ling gets.

Looking at Xiao Nai, Qiao Jingjing, and Tang Rou, she couldn't even imagine how glorious her future would be.

After Tang's father appeared, Xiao Nai and the others stopped paying attention to the man called President Lü. After all, he couldn't even stay at this party any longer and might run away at any moment.

Xiao Nai and his group were too lazy to continue their mockery; it would be beneath their dignity. A simple crushing of the opponent would suffice. As for the rest, Liu Weiguo would take care of it for Xiao Nai.

Because of Tang's father, everyone's conversation revolved around Tang Rou. Just then, Lou Guanning's mischievous friend arrived.

"Oh, you're here pretty early. I thought you wouldn't arrive until the latter half of your journey. But it's a pity you were a bit late; you missed the good show just now," Lou Guanning said.

“That’s obvious. I just finished a board meeting. Do you think I’m as free as you? I just happened to be passing by and came in to take a look,” said Lou Guanning’s childhood friend.

Then the person saw Xiao Nai and the others, waved to them and said, "Oh, you guys are here too."

Upon seeing the greeting, Xiao Nai and the others responded in succession.

Just then, a waiter brought over a glass of wine. Lou Guanning's friend picked up the glass, raised it to everyone, and continued, "I still have a contract to discuss, so I'll leave now. You guys keep having fun." After saying that, the man finished his drink, patted Lou Guanning on the shoulder, and left, perfectly illustrating the saying "coming and going in a hurry."

"Your friend..." Chen Guo couldn't immediately connect this busy person with the person who used to be so idle that he could find people online to cause trouble for Lou Guanning.

"Don't worry about it, that's just who he is. He's absolutely reliable when something happens, but don't worry about how it happened," Lou Guanning said.

With Mr. Lü's departure, the party returned to its main focus. Tang Rou was called away by her father for a chat, while Xiao Nai was pulled away by Liu Weiguo, who said he would introduce him to people. Qiao Jingjing also returned to work mode, starting to mingle with Sister Ling among the directors, business partners, and investors.

In contrast, the rest of Happy relaxed and began to enjoy the music and food at the event.

Everyone watched as Xiao Nai became the center of attention and couldn't help but sigh, "Life is tough, even the vice-captain has to perform." In contrast, Tang Rou and Qiao Jingjing huddled together, and they weren't surrounded by the same intimidating presence as Xiao Nai.

There was no other way; as the CEO of a rising star company, everyone wanted to have some business cooperation with Xingyu Group. Now that Xiao Nai, the behind-the-scenes boss, was appearing in the public eye for the first time, it was natural to go up and do as much communication as possible. (End of this chapter)
