I was just playing tricks, how come I became Bai Yueguang

Chapter 209 Resolute Defense

When Jiang Huashan entered the banquet hall, she was immediately attracted by the giant screen on the stage.

It really was a charity gala. The crystal screen on the stage kept scrolling the news that the chairman of a certain company or industry had donated XXXXXX yuan to Jinwan's education.

The charities mentioned above are also diverse, the most eye-catching of which is the Tianen Education Charity Foundation, whose donation amount is far ahead at 50 million.

Behind the donors' wall of honor is another giant poster, which clearly shows the before and after comparison of the recipients of funding from Jingang over the past five years, as well as the improvement of local education teachers.

The people at the banquet were either elegant and graceful or dignified and graceful. As they raised their glasses, they either praised the leaders of Jinwan or discussed the future planning.

High end bureau.

Jiang Huashan kept looking around, like a child who had not yet grown up and had wandered into the jungle of adults, curious about everything.

"What did your stepmother ask you to do in this kind of old people's bureau?"

Shen Guiling was silent. How could she be so mean and not even pretend?

Yao Ge followed him into the banquet, his eyes darting between the two of them, then he raised his eyebrows and winked at Mo Ran.

Mo Ran understood and smiled as he walked over to Jiang Huashan and said, "Miss Jiang, the juice and snacks are over there. Can I take you there?"

Yao Ge patted Shen Guiling on the shoulder and said, "Ah Ling, it just so happens that your father's old friend is over there. Come with me to say hello."

Jiang Huashan rolled her eyes and pulled Mo Ran, "Where is the juice you mentioned?"

Mo Ran immediately led the way, "I'll take you there."

Yao Ge took Shen Guiling to the seat of high-ranking officials.

"Governor Yan."

Yan Meiting was talking to the secretary beside her with her head tilted to one side when she suddenly heard Yao Ge's voice. She looked up and was stunned by the young man in front of her.

The skin is exquisite and the bones are noble.

Even though she had seen countless people, she had never seen such a divine color.

Yan Meiting remained expressionless. She smiled and stood up to greet Yao Ge, "Mrs. Shen."

Yao Ge looked at Shen Guiling and said, "Governor Yan, let me introduce you. This is... my husband's youngest son, Shen Guiling. Ah Ling, this is your father's old friend, Governor Yan."

Shen Guiling's eyes and eyebrows were gentle, "Hello, Aunt Yan."

Yan Meiting's smile froze slightly, and she nodded, "You are A Ling. I often hear Minister Shen mention you."

At the beginning, Shen Qian was transferred to Nanwan to serve as the Nanwan Local Propaganda Minister, a position more than three levels lower than that of Governor Yan Meiting.

Yao Ge winked at the waiter beside him, and someone immediately came forward with two glasses of red wine. "A Ling, Governor Yan is your father's good friend in South Bay. Since this is our first meeting, why don't you have a drink with Governor Yan?"

Shen Guiling took the red wine glass.

Yan Meiting glanced at Yao Ge meaningfully, then smiled and picked up the boiled water on the table. "I have a meeting tomorrow morning, so I'll have water instead of wine."

Shen Guiling was obedient and was about to drink from his glass when someone suddenly squeezed in between him and Yao Ge.

The next second, a soft palm covered his fingertips and took away the red wine glass in his hand while he was distracted.

Before Shen Guiling could react, a glass of orange juice appeared in his palm.

"How many times have I told you? Boys must protect themselves when they are outside. Why don't you listen?"

Shen Guiling stared at the orange juice in her hand for three seconds before slowly looking up.

Jiang Huashan held strawberry juice in one hand and red wine in the other. She didn't look at him, but was smiling at Yan Meiting in front of her.

Yao Ge didn't react at first as to where she came from, and turned around to glare at Mo Ran.

This is Jinwan. Yan Meiting has never seen anyone dare to be so rude to her in Jinwan, but after all, she is an old veteran who has experienced the ups and downs of officialdom, so she will not lose her temper because of such a small matter.

Yan Meiting smiled and glanced at Yao Ge, "Who is this?"

Yao Ge smiled awkwardly, "I'm sorry to bother you. This is my niece, Shanshan. This is the governor of Jinwan, Aunt Yan."

When Yan Meiting heard that it was someone from the Shen family, there was a little more kindness in her eyes.

Jiang Huashan frowned and looked at Yan Meiting with a critical look. "So you're the governor of Jinwan? Auntie, you were so flattering and groveling, I thought some big shot had come."

Yan Meiting was stunned.

"!"

Going crazy again!

The smile on Yao Ge's lips was about to break, but he covered it up with a laugh, "Please forgive me, Governor Yan. I'm just a child talking nonsense and I don't know what's going on."

"Aunt, you also know that we are children? Shen Guiling will only turn eighteen the month after next. Strictly speaking, he is a minor now. How dare you force him to drink with you?"

Yao Ge and Yan Meiting's eyelids twitched at the same time.

Shen Guiling slowly lowered her eyes and continued to stare at the orange juice in her hand.

Yao Ge, "What do you mean by drinking with me? I just asked A Ling to come and say hello."

"Oh." Jiang Huashan nodded and handed the red wine in his hand to Yan Meifang. "Since it's just a greeting, how can the adults drink water while the children drink wine?"

Yan Meiting looked at the red wine in front of her, and the smile in the corner of her eyes turned cold. "Mrs. Shen, the children in your family are really humorous."

Yao Ge was about to speak when Jiang Huashan shook the glass and poured out half of the red wine.

"What? Governor Yan doesn't like us young people's toasts? It seems that I can only ask Grandpa to go there in person."

Yan Meiting's face changed slightly. She was a leader in Jinwan, but outside of Jinwan, she was nothing. Yao Ge was so polite to her because he hoped she could help Shen Qian with his campaign for council chairmanship. If it weren't for the extraordinary times, she wouldn't be worthy of the Shen family's flattery.

Yao Ge noticed that the atmosphere was not right, and gritted his teeth to smooth things over, "Shanshan, just give your aunt some face and stop making a fuss, okay?"

"Making a fuss?" Jiang Huashan raised her eyes, sizing up Yao Ge with a harsh look. "Aunt, do you think I'm making a fuss? If you weren't determined to embarrass the Shen family, would a child like me have to step in?"

Who the heck is the Governor of Jinwan?! Grandpa even dared to knock out Fu Lingnan's dentures. If he knew Yao Ge forced Shen Guiling to drink with him in order to canvass votes for Shen Qian, he'd probably be so angry he'd vomit blood on the spot.

How could Yao Ge be humiliating Shen Guiling? He was clearly humiliating the Shen family.

Grandpa has devoted his entire life to upholding the honor of the Shen family, and she will never allow anyone to destroy it.

Seeing Jiang Huashan's stubbornness, Yao Ge couldn't help but get angry. "That's enough! Don't think you can do whatever you want just because you have the old man's support. If you continue to act recklessly, don't blame me for asking you to leave."

Jiang Huashan smiled and raised his chin. "Okay, you can kick me out, as long as you can afford the cost of kicking me out."

Yan Meiting was struck by the smile in her eyes and blurted out, "What's the price?"

Jiang Huashan said, "Jinwan has neither mountains nor old systems, yet despite its educational development, it still ranks among the poorest in Country A. Children even have to rely on the support of caring individuals from all walks of life to attend school. Is it because the people of Jinwan aren't working hard enough? Or is it because everyone here isn't working hard enough?"

Yan Meiting's face changed slightly. She did not talk about the conflict at hand at all, but directly escalated it to a political contradiction. At this moment, Yan Meiting finally had a clear understanding of the horror of the children of chaebols.

Not only her, but all the Jinwan officials behind her could no longer sit still.

Jiang Huashan shook the wine glass in his hand again, and the smile in his eyes faded a little, "Now, there is no toast."

After getting engaged to Shen Lanxi, she also followed Shen Zhuang to learn how to become a qualified Mrs. Shen. In her previous life, she failed to save the reputation of the Shen family, but in this life, she firmly defended it in the name of Shen Zhuang's granddaughter.

The crystal glass overturned and the red wine poured out along the wall of the glass.
