When Gu Chen found Song Fan, Peter had just left, and Song Fan looked upset.

“Did he bother you again?” Gu Chen quickly took a few steps forward.

But Song Fan just shook her head. She wasn’t planning to tell Gu Chen about what Peter had said. It seemed that the snow saffron was in the hands of the Brown family, making it impossible to find in B Country. If she were to make a deal with Peter, whose kidney would it be?

Peter’s words were ambiguous, and she didn’t dare make a deal with him. But without a deal, how much longer could Gu Chen live?

Sensing her mood, Gu Chen gently took her hand. “You have to tell me everything. Don’t worry, no one in the capital dares to bully you.”

Song Fan took a deep breath and patted the back of his hand. “Don’t worry, no one can bully me.”

Xu Wen watched their interaction from a distance, growing more and more agitated.

She didn’t love Gu Chen. In fact, she was often afraid of him. But why would such a person be interested in Song Fan?

Thinking of his resolute demeanor earlier, Xu Wen smirked coldly. He wouldn’t marry her even in death? What about if living was worse than death?

She gestured to a waiter, who quickly approached. Xu Wen handed him a capsule and gave some instructions. The waiter nodded and swiftly entered the venue.

Xu Wen sneered. The capsule was something Xia Yu had specially prepared to make things more intense in bed. She wondered what effect it would have on the high and mighty Gu Chen if he took it.

Gu Chen had not touched any alcohol all evening. He was taking care of his health, especially with Song Fan constantly watching him.

When Mrs. Xu approached, Gu Chen smiled, knowing that an opportunity was presenting itself.

“Gu Chen, the banquet is quite nice today, isn’t it? When you’re back in the capital, you should often bring Xu Wen along. She doesn’t know much about business and needs your guidance,” Mrs. Xu said, her words smooth but clearly meant to pair him with Xu Wen.

In her eyes, her daughter was the best, and there was no reason for Gu Chen to prefer Song Fan over Xu Wen.

But Gu Chen had something else in mind. “Yes, not only is Xu Wen inexperienced, but even Mrs. Xu seems to have forgotten our earlier agreement.”

Mrs. Xu frowned. Gu Chen’s words were impolite, and she couldn’t recall any agreement with Gu Corporation.

“Gu Chen, you must be mistaken. I never interfere in Xu Corporation’s affairs,” Mrs. Xu said, not wanting to be criticized in such a setting.

Gu Chen chuckled lightly. “You do seem to have a poor memory. You might not handle Xu Corporation’s matters, but you did promise to support Lingdong Jewelry. Did you forget?”

Gu Chen remembered that Mrs. Xu had promised to support them at the launch event, but she never showed up.

Given her status, buying too little would make her look stingy, but buying too much would mean swallowing her pride. Why should she let Song Fan profit off her?

Several nearby ladies exchanged glances. Gu Chen didn’t seem to be joking but rather asking for a debt to be paid.

They recalled the incident involving Xu Wen and understood the situation. After Xu Wen’s scandal, Mrs. Xu was most afraid of others looking down on her daughter. She immediately smiled, “Xu Wen was too busy with work that day, and I wasn’t feeling well… How could I forget? After the banquet, have Miss Song send me photos of the jewelry. I’ll take a good look.”

“No need for that.” Song Fan walked over just in time. “I have the photos on my phone. I’m sure you’ve seen them from the launch. Xu Wen said you were very pleased with our new diamond necklace designs.”

Regardless of what Xu Wen might have said afterward, Song Fan’s public mention put Mrs. Xu in a difficult position. Lingdong Jewelry’s main store was in Xu Corporation’s mall; would Mrs. Xu really refute her now?

Sure enough, Mrs. Xu’s expression barely held together, but she managed a forced smile. “Yes, those necklaces are indeed beautiful. Especially the ones designed by Kevin. I like them very much.”

If she had to buy, it would naturally be the jewelry designed by an international designer.

Song Fan immediately put on a professional and overly enthusiastic smile. “Thank you for your support, Mrs. Xu. Kevin designed three diamond necklaces, all perfect for various occasions. I’ll notify my colleagues to package them for you, and we’ll send them over shortly.”
