Chapter 232 Self-inflicted embarrassment
When it was Jinzhong's turn, Kong Xingyue's smile became a little more shy, and her cold voice carried the unique softness of a woman.
"Hello, Mr. Jin, I'm Kong Xingyue, an artist under Xingmang. Nice to meet you."
Although she didn't say anything more straightforward, everyone present could tell that Miss Xingyue's target today was Jinzhong.
But everyone is not surprised, after all, they have seen too many things in this circle.
Jinzhong smiled as if in the spring breeze, but just nodded without saying anything.
Kong Xingyue was not satisfied with Jinzhong's reaction. What was wrong with this man? She had already taken the initiative, but he was unwilling to say a word to her.
She looked at Zhong Ling who was silently tasting the red wine on the side, and frowned slightly.
Could it be because this woman doesn’t look that good and her figure isn’t as good as hers? I wonder what President Jin sees in her.
When the man introduced her just now, he only introduced her identity to a few people present, but did not introduce everyone present to her one by one, so Kong Xingyue subconsciously regarded Zhong Ling as Jinzhong's female companion.
Moreover, with the level of the Kong family, she had never had the opportunity to come into contact with people from the Zhong family before.
She had sent someone to investigate Beiyu before, but that person didn't know what to do and only handed over Jinzhong's information. It was no wonder that she came here to find someone from Beiyu Media, but only recognized Jinzhong.
At first, Kong Xingyue behaved very properly, listening to what they said with a perfect smile and occasionally agreeing with them.
It was not until several rounds of drinks had passed and the party was about to end that Kong Xingyue approached Jinzhong with a glass of wine in hand.
She patted Zhong Ling's shoulder and asked politely, "Miss, can I change seats with you?"
Zhong Ling happily stood up in front of Jin Zhong's eager eyes, "Miss Xingyue, please sit down. I just need to go to the bathroom."
Seeing Zhong Ling being so understanding, Kong Xingyue smiled with satisfaction, and then sat down next to Jinzhong.
Of course, Zhong Ling didn't go to the bathroom. She found a secluded place and sat down, quietly turning on the camera function of the computer. It was so lively that she had to record it for Kong Yu to see.
On this side, Jinzhong only felt that his whole body was like being clawed by a cat. What's wrong with this woman? Isn't she the eldest daughter of the Kong family? Why is she so unstable? She can't just sit still. Her body keeps sticking to him.
If Kong Yu saw this, he would not blame him. After all, he was expelled from school because of these people from the Kong family.
As soon as Kong Xingyue put her hand on Jinzhong's arm, he dodged it quickly like lightning, but she didn't care at all. These men pretended to be gentlemen on the surface, but in fact they just liked women to obey them. As long as you show a little admiration for him, you can coax him into losing his way and finally use him for your own purposes.
Seeing Jinzhong dodging, Kong Xingyue stopped talking. She filled the wine glass in front of her and looked at Jinzhong.
"Boss Jin, I really like your company's new drama. I was delayed by something during the casting. I wonder if I will have the opportunity to participate in the next drama."
There were many people present who were paying attention to Jinzhong. In order to get a good role, it was inevitable to establish a good relationship with the other party. Many people were waiting to see Jinzhong's reaction. If there was a chance, they were also ready to go up and get close to Mr. Jin.
Jinzhong didn't want to embarrass Kong Xingyue in such an occasion. Although he and Kong Yu were friends, the grudge between Kong Yu and the Kong family was his own business. Moreover, for the sake of gentlemanly style, it would not be appropriate for him to attack a lady in public. That would not look good.
But when he remembered that he could still search on the Star Internet to find everything Kong Yu had experienced in the Kong family since he was a child, Jinzhong felt a surge of disgust from the bottom of his heart when he looked at Kong Xingyue in front of him.
Jinzhong moved aside, and then looked at Kong Xingyue seriously: "Ms. Xingyue, as far as I know, although the Kong family has lost several public welfare projects of the Federation, its current business situation is still good. Why are you doing this?
Could it be that the Kong family not only abused their adopted children, but also their own children?"
When Kong Xingyue suddenly heard the words "abuse" and "adopted child" from Jinzhong's mouth, her beautiful eyes were shocked.
"Mr. Jin, you're joking. I didn't expect someone like you would believe those false rumors on the Internet."
Jinzhong raised his eyebrows and asked with interest, "What false rumors are you referring to, Miss Xingyue?"
He wanted to hear what else the Kong family had to say about this matter.
Kong Xingyue's tone was a little aggrieved, "I know Kong Yu is now the representative of the Lieyan Military Academy, and many people in the Federation like him. They attacked my company and my family for him.
But the truth was not exactly as he said. My mother suffered from serious mental illness at the time, and some things she did were not what she really wanted to do.
Her love for Kong Yu was no less than that for any of us siblings. Even after my younger brother was found, my parents didn't say they wanted to send him away. It was because he felt unbalanced that he ran away from home.
Even my elder and second brothers treated him better than me, because he was a lonely and gloomy person, so they would take him out to meet new friends from time to time.
Now he doesn't care about the kindness of his family at all. He even distorts the facts and wants to sever ties with the family. His parents are heartbroken and are unwilling to argue anymore.
My mother’s illness got worse because of him.”
When she said this, tears welled up in Kong Xingyue's eyes. If you didn't know her, you would really think she had suffered a great injustice.
Jinxin's secret agent, "What a silver tongue"
If he didn't know Kong Yu's character well, anyone else would probably have believed what she said.
Jinzhong was too lazy to continue playing coy with Kong Xingyue. He put away his smile and raised his voice to ensure that everyone around him could hear clearly:
"Ms. Xingyue, I have no interest in your family's affairs, but Beiyu Media will never cooperate with people who lack love and compassion. I think this is inconsistent with the philosophy expressed in our company's works.
In addition, if you want to participate in Beiyu Media's works, no matter who you are, you must speak with your strength and avoid taking shortcuts."
Jinzhong's words were so righteous that Zhong Ling, who was recording the video, couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
Kong Xingyue's pretty face turned pale and then dark, and the contemptuous looks from the people around her made her want to dig a hole in the ground and run away.
She wanted to get angry, but she held it back forcibly. With a sullen face, she grabbed her bag and left the venue.
The artists who had come to watch the fun and wanted to get close to Jinzhong were all discouraged. Zhong Ling put away her laptop and returned to her seat leisurely.
The middle-aged man who brought Kong Xingyue here had an ugly look on his face. This Jinzhong really thought he was an important person. Kong Xingyue was someone he brought here with him after all, yet he dared to disrespect him like this.
