Fake Husband of the Glamorous CEO-Chapter 228: Regret not having done differently from the outset
The proprietress of this high-end tailoring company was somewhat taken aback to see the big star Ming Lan causing a commotion.
Seeing Ming Lan knock over those models’ displays, the proprietress instinctively protected the clients’ cheongsam clothes, and then scolded Ming Lan, "Ming Lan, what’s wrong with you? I told your assistant half a month ago that I had rejected your dress and didn’t make it. Don’t pretend to be dumb and throw a fit here just because you couldn’t find a sponsor!"
She had to be busy making something for Lin Yue, so she had already informed the other party in advance.
Ming Lan, with a gun pointed at her forehead, did not show panic but rather scoffed in disdain.
Some people always live within the confines of their own understanding.
Ming Lan had never in her life seen a VIP’s security detail carrying actual firearms.
So she instinctively thought that these firearms were fake.
As a celebrity, the entertainment circle is never short of realistic firearm props.
She slapped away the plainclothes officer’s gun and continued to rant, "Trying to scare me with this crappy prop? Mr. Ye, think carefully, if I make a big deal out of this, your brand will never rise in the amusement circle again!"
As soon as her words ended, a female police officer at Lin Yue’s side, unwilling to shoot, slapped her across the face.
She completely stunned Ming Lan.
By the time she came to her senses and thought of cursing back, the plainclothes officer in charge of protecting Gu Feng had already pinned her to the ground.
Ming Lan’s assistant and agent, seeing the commotion, started filming with their phones while running in to threaten, "What are you doing? What’s going on? Are you hitting us? Fine, keep filming, and wait until I post this online, and we’ll see who’s finished!"
The well-trained plainclothes officers weren’t going to indulge them.
They quickly took down Ming Lan’s assistant and agent as well.
Their phones were confiscated on the spot.
The proprietress of the high-end company didn’t expect these security personnel to really take action; they didn’t care if you were some big star or not, they would pin you down if they said so.
Ming Lan tried to speak again, only to see an ID shown in front of her, and heard the female officer say, "You want to call the police, go ahead, I am the police! Dare to move again and see, I have the authority to take defensive measures and shoot you dead!"
Several plainclothes officers took out their IDs, and Ming Lan, along with her assistant and agent, were pinned to the ground, their expressions changing instantly.
Only then did they realize that the gun from before was real!
Damn it!
Not just the three women, but also those trying on clothes for Lin Yue and the proprietress were all startled.
When Gu Feng finished smoking and came in, he saw three women being held to the ground, and the models’ area a mess from their actions.
"What happened?"
The guard saluted and replied, "Sir, these three came in and started smashing things. To avoid harming the lady, we took defensive measures."
Everyone present had their pupils dilate.
The chief... chief...!
"Take them away," Gu Feng said indifferently.
The female officer nodded and whisked away Ming Lan’s team without further ado.
Gu Feng, as if nothing had happened, asked Lin Yue, "All set?"
Lin Yue nodded her head, didn’t dwell on the previous incident, and trusted that the guards’ actions were part of their jobs, and handling such matters would be done by a specialized department.
"All set." Lin Yue stood up, grabbed her handbag, came over and looped her arm through Gu Feng’s, and didn’t forget to look back to tell the proprietress, "Pack it up for me, and have it sent to my house later, I’ll send you the location in a bit."
The proprietress promptly responded with respect, "Of course, President Lin."
Seeing the couple turn to leave, the proprietress and the designers hurriedly followed behind to personally escort them out of the company.
Downstairs, Yixue underestimated the background of the Gu family when she saw Ming Lan’s team being taken away.
As she looked towards the third-floor corridor, she happened to see Gu Feng and others coming down.
Her eyes were instantly drawn to Lin Yue, who was holding onto Gu Feng’s arm.
Is this his wife?
She’s so beautiful!
That was Yixue’s first impression of Lin Yue.
Honestly, it caught Yixue off guard.
She had thought that someone like Gu Feng, coming from an equal social standing, would not have a good-looking partner.
Over the years, she had even thought that although she gave up this relationship for the sake of her career and future, once she had everything, she might go back to him. Even if he was married by then, their marriage surely wouldn’t be harmonious.
However, she did not expect his wife to be as beautiful as herself, if not more so!
Even in terms of temperament, Lin Yue’s elegant and luminous fairness, which seemed to shine like jade, was not something she could match with layers of makeup.
Usually confident in the face of anyone, Yixue felt a pang of inferiority and shame at this moment, not daring to look at Lin Yue.
"Xue, isn’t that the president of Meiyue Group?" Her agent was more worldly and knowledgeable, and as someone who had spent years securing luxury endorsement deals for celebrities, she knew Lin Yue well.
The endorsement for the top five national luxury cosmetics was something every female artist aspired to, and she was trying to secure it for Yixue as well. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮
Through connections with the five groups, she was naturally familiar with President Lin of Meiyue Group!
"She is the president of Meiyue Group?" Yixue couldn’t believe it.
Her agent nodded, "That’s her!"
Yixue looked shocked.
She had never seen Lin Yue, but she knew the status of Meiyue Group in Jiangcheng and, indeed, among the state-owned enterprises.
And as the chairperson of Meiyue Group, she was certainly a massive figure in their eyes!
Even with yearly revenues of hundreds of billions, compared to Forbes’ listed private tycoons, Lin Yue had an organizational system background!
To understand her rank, one only needed to reference the administrative level of Meiyue’s corporate structure to grasp the extent of her power!
Yixue felt her composure waver at this minute.
Seeing that Gu Feng had married a wife of President Lin’s stature, Yixue feared her initial assessment had been mistaken!
When she first met Gu Feng, he was merely a Junior Officer in the Special Forces.
When his father reached out to her through intermediaries to discuss terms, Yixue chose her career.
Because she knew that if she made it as a star, she could earn a lot of money, and continuing to wait might mean that even if she did end up marrying Gu Feng, he might not be able to provide her with what the Amusement Circle could.
But now, she suspected her guess might have been wrong.
Being able to marry the president of Meiyue Group as a wife implied that the potential of the Gu family was only higher, not lower!
Yixue dearly hoped Gu Feng had married into Lin Yue’s family; that way, her regret might be greatly diminished.
To confirm this truth, she followed behind Gu Feng and the others, secretly watching from a distance in the parking lot.
When she saw Lin Yue and Gu Feng being escorted by security guards into Gu Feng’s Hummer military vehicle, and the escort vehicles in front and behind bore military plates, she realized that in their relationship, Gu Feng was the dominant one!
Because Meiyue Group could not possibly have military benefits.
Yixue leaned against the corner of the wall, her legs giving way beneath her, as she mocked herself in bitter self-derision, "Yixue, oh Yixue, you’ve really outdone yourself in stupidity. The so-called queen of the secular world is nothing but a tiny matter in their eyes, and for that, you’ve lost a life where you could have been a princess!"
