Chapter 2 Rebound Tool

In the evening, there were still two hours before the engagement ceremony began. Guests arrived one after another, and there was a continuous stream of luxury cars at the entrance of the hotel.

The girl at the front desk was so shocked that she covered her mouth, "I've never seen so many rich people and stars!"

The sales manager, Shao Qing, knocked on her shoulder with the walkie-talkie and reminded her, "Work hard. Don't make any mistakes today."

The little girl poked her arm and said mysteriously, "Sister Shao, have you heard? Mr. Ji booked a room in our hotel last night. Someone in the guest room said that the noise in the room had not stopped all night."

Shao Qing tilted her head and looked at the little girl. Her lively eyes were shining with the light of gossip.

The little girl did not wait for her answer, but continued to say, "It is impossible to get a room with his fiancee in a hotel! But isn't he a handsome guy famous for celibacy? How could he have an affair with another woman the night before the engagement?"

Shao Qing raised the corner of her mouth and said, "Celibate handsome guy?"

This persona was too hypocritical, and his desires were not satisfied.

"Yes." The little girl could not hear the doubt in her tone and muttered, "Not a single man can be called a good egg."

"The conclusion is in place." Shao Qing nodded in approval and couldn't help rubbing her shoulders wearily.

The Ji family was the richest family in Linghai City, and Ji Zisheng was a highly anticipated young entrepreneur. In order to have qualification to host his engagement ceremony, all the hotels tried their best.

The hotel where Shao Qing worked was called Yunyue Hotel, an established chain brand, a platinum five-star hotel.

In order to stand out from the bidders, the Sales Department worked overtime for two months to come up with a business plan.

For this, Shao Qing had stayed up late and lost a lot of her hair. In addition, they had sex overnight, so she was very sleepy now.

While she still had some time, she took the cigarette and went to the smoking room.

At this time, the CEO's Office of the Jiting Group was also shrouded in smoke.

Ji Zisheng stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the office and looked out of the window with a deep gaze, smoking the cigarette between his fingers from time to time.

His assistant, Wu Li, gently knocked on the door, "Mr. Ji, your dress is here. Do you still want to try it on?"

"No need." Ji Zisheng pressed the cigarette into the ashtray on the table, sat down, and flipped through the documents.

Wu Li hesitated for a moment before saying timidly, "It's almost time, Mr. Ji. Why don't we go to the hotel?"

Ji Zisheng acted as if he didn't hear Wu Li and didn't want to talk to him at all.

Wu Li was in a dilemma. He braced himself and continued, "Old Master called and told you to attend the engagement ceremony on time. Remember, the reputation of Ji family is of utmost importance."

"Get out!" Ji Zisheng threw the teacup at the door.

The teacup fell to the ground, the glass splashed, and the door closed quickly.

Ji Zisheng rubbed his temples irritably and suddenly thought of the soft woman from last night. Then he found the number of Shao Qing.

Just as he was about to dial, his hand stopped.

He shook his head with a self-deprecating smile, deleted the number, and reluctantly walked out of the office.

Twenty minutes later, the car slowly stopped outside the hotel.

There was a lot of noise and flashes.

Ji Zisheng stepped down with his long legs. He was dressed in a classic black suit and looked very noble. Surrounded by the crowd, he strode into the hotel.

All the media reporters were chasing after him, but he pursed his lips and had a faint smile on his face.

Inadvertently, he glanced at Shao Qing, who had just come out of the smoking room, and then looked away casually as if he had never seen her before.

Shao Qing raised her eyebrows and the corners of her mouth curled up imperceptibly.

This was exactly what she wanted, to have a one-night fling with a scumbag and have no further connection in her lifetime.

Just as she was feeling smug, an annoying figure walked straight towards her.

She impatiently raised her hand and motioned for someone to come to the reception room to talk.

Everyone in the hotel stopped what they were doing and focused on the engagement ceremony. At this time, the reception room was empty.

Mr. Shao said with a serious face, "Shao Qing, today is Shao Yu's engagement ceremony. You are her elder sister and the sales manager of the hotel. You should be careful and ensure that there will be no problems at the ceremony."

"No problem? Then I'd better not show up." Shao Qing touched her nose and looked indifferent.

"You better take this seriously! This alliance will determine the fate of the Shao family for decades. Look at you, so careless and unruly! You're nothing like a young lady of the Shao Family!"

"Yes, young lady of the Shao Family should live in a big villa. She eats bird's nest and shark's wings every meal and is covered with luxury goods." Shao Qing looked down at herself and said with a sneer, "I really don't look like her."

"You!" Mr. Shao pointed at Shao Qing and said, "Your mother spoils so much!"

"Don't mention my mother!" Shao Qing instantly turned cold, and the father and daughter glared at each other.

Just as they were about to fight, her stepmother - Mrs. Lan broke in, "Honey! I finally found you! Something big has happened!"

Mr. Shao coughed and asked, "Why are you in such a hurry?"

"Shao Yu is..." Mrs. Lan looked around. She wanted to say something but did not dare to.

"Hurry up and speak!"

"Shao Yu ran away with that gangster! We can't find her!"

"What?!" Mr. Shao staggered and covered his chest with his hand.

Mrs. Lan hurried forward to help him up, "Honey, your heart is not in good condition. Don't get agitated!"

Shao Qing stood aside and almost couldn't hold back her laughter.

Everything was ready except for her daughter. Tomorrow's hot topic was confirmed, and the Shao family and the Ji family would soon become the laughing stock of Linghai City.

She turned around and was about to leave. Her footsteps seemed to be a little lighter, and she was thinking about which bar she would go to tonight to have a drink and celebrate.

"Stop!" Mr. Shao stopped her. "You! Go and get engaged on behalf of Shao Yu with Ji Zisheng!"

Shao Qing was stunned and said with a hollow laugh, "Are you senile or do you think everyone is blind? Can something like this be easily substituted?"

Mrs. Lan also muttered, "That's right, honey. It's not like Ji family hasn't seen Shao Yu before. Besides, Ji Zisheng is my son-in-law..."

Mr. Shao calmed down and said, "There are so many media and guests tonight. Ji family will definitely complete the engagement ceremony. As for which daughter from Shao family, it is not the most important thing for our two families."

Shao Qing knew that she was a rebound tool. Her eyes turned cold as she said, "I never pick up things that others don't want."

Mr. Shao said coldly, "This is your responsibility as the daughter of the Shao family!"

"You haven't fulfilled your responsibility as my father!" As soon as she finished speaking, Shao Qing pushed open the door of the reception room and walked out.

The hotel colleagues were busy. They couldn't foresee that everyone's hard work of more than two months would be ruined in one day.

Shao Qing shrugged and comforted herself that it was God's arrangement.

She took her wind coat, slipped out of the back door, and wanted to take a taxi home through the parking lot.

Suddenly, the headlights of a car lit up in front of her.

She raised her hand to cover her eyes.

The sound of leather shoes stepping on the ground came from far to near.

Shao Qing slowed down and looked over with narrowed eyes.

It was Ji Zisheng.

Then, she forced a professional smile and said, "Mr. Ji. Why are you here? Are you a little nervous about the engagement?"

Ji Zisheng looked straight at her with a faint smile, "Yes, my fiancee has run away. How can I not be nervous?"

Hearing this, Shao Qing knew that her father had told Ji Zisheng the truth. She rolled her eyes and was in a hurry to sow discord between them, "Ran away? The Shao family is really outrageous. They are playing tricks on you. If I were you, I would make a big deal out of it and make the Shao family unable to raise their heads in Linghai City!"

How could she know that he was staring at her with his black eyes shining like stars.

After a while, Ji Zisheng grabbed her arm and dragged her into the hotel, "It's too troublesome to make a scene. It's easier for you to go back with me to complete the engagement ceremony."
