My CEO Husband Has Some Issues

Chapter 1705: Chapter 1706: I’m Not Going Anymore

The director told her about the meaning behind the floral pattern and how their designer loved it so much that they volunteered to design additional outfits for Rong Yan beyond the dress.

Rong Yan took the clothes and left the Gaia Legend Store.

Just as she was leaving, the staff responsible for coordinating the banquet called her. Rong Yan saw the incoming call, picked up her phone, and opened the car door.

“Hello.”

“Mr. Rong, your entrance order for tonight has been arranged. You’re the 9th to walk the red carpet, starting at 6:30 PM. You just need to arrive before 7 PM.”

Rong Yan patiently waited for him to finish speaking, then placed what she was holding into the car, closed the door, leaned against the vehicle, and said, “I’m not going.”

“What?”

“I said I’m not attending the banquet tonight.”

The staff was stunned and tentatively asked, “…Mr. Rong, you’re joking with me, right? You can’t be serious.”

Rong Yan looked at the clothes Lin Zhiya had specially prepared for her, her lips pressed tightly, her pretty face calm and composed, “I’m not joking with you.”

“Didn’t you already promise to come? Why suddenly change your mind…”

“You can ask your management about that, they should know the answer.”

“But Mr. Rong…”

Rong Yan decisively hung up the phone, and the noise in her ear was immediately gone.

Her principle was always simple—if others show me respect, I will show them even more respect.

The opposite is also true.

Bright Starry Sky maintained a good partnership with the AQ platform, so they sent her an invitation. Although she disliked attending such events, she agreed to show up.

Now she found out AQ platform betrayed her to please Chu Xi, unfortunately, she would not oblige them either.

Within five minutes, Wang Ying called.

Rong Yan had already gotten into the car, waiting for their call, and wasn’t surprised to see Wang Ying’s name lighting up.

After all, compared to people from the AQ platform, Wang Ying from Lemon Entertainment was the one who contacted her the most.

“Hello.”

She picked up the call.

Wang Ying immediately let out a long breath, as if nothing had happened, and in a relaxed tone said, “Amitabha Buddha, you finally answered the phone. Before they asked me to call, I was worried you wouldn’t want to answer my call.”

She finished with a smile and then adopted a serious tone, “Mr. Rong, you seem to be more than ten years younger than me, may I call you Rong Yan?”

“Sure.”

“Rong Yan, I’ve always admired you. Even before you came to the company to discuss cooperation with me, I had heard about you and really liked your character. Later, you started your company and approached me for collaboration. At first, no one in the company’s management believed in your project, but I persuaded them all. The project launched smoothly, and we worked great together. Although we’re just business partners, in my heart, I’ve always regarded you as a friend…”

“Mr. Wang, just tell me directly.”

She disliked social gatherings primarily because she didn’t like such convoluted ways of speaking.

Wang Ying mentioned considering her a friend, yet the way she conducted this call was not the attitude of treating friends.

Otherwise, between friends, there wouldn’t be so much formality, taking forever to get to the point.

Wang Ying probably realized she had overdone it with her preamble. She stopped being verbose and straightforwardly apologized, “I know everything that happened at the Gaia Legend Store just now, Rong Yan, I’m sorry, I didn’t manage my artists well.”
