Mufan Real Estate?
What on earth was going on?
Shen Jiu-Wan's words stunned everyone.
The guests in the hall were especially shocked and turned towards Qiu Guang.
"Mr Qiu, isn't your company Qiushui Logistics?”
"Did you changed the company name?"
"When did you start breaking into the real estate market?"
"That can't be right. Isn't Mufan Real Estate the company that was in the news yesterday?"
"Is Mr Shen confused?"
All the guests seemed confused. They clearly couldn't tell what was going on.
Old Master Qiu's face turned overcast too, and his smile dissipated instantly.
Mufan Real Estate was nothing but an insult to the Qiu family now. Everyone in the family detested the company.
But Shen Jiu-Wan came to Qiushui Logistics' ribbon-cutting ceremony to congratulate Mufan Real Estate.
What did he mean by this?
Wasn't he slapping the Qiu family in the face?
"Mr Shen, are you mistaken? Our company is Qiushui Logistics and not Mufan Real Estate," said Old Master Qiu deeply. He sounded a little displeased.
Qiu Guang and the others looked livid too. They wondered whether Shen Jiu-Wan was getting on his age.
How could Shen Jiu-Wan mistake Qiushui Logistics for Mufan Real Estate?
Were their company names alike in any way?
They were clearly completely different!
"Ha!"
"Haha!"
"Grandpa, Mr Shen must have gotten too excited when he saw you and made a mistake."
"Don't take it to heart and just pretend you didn't hear anything. I will get Mr Shen to start over."
Qiu Mu-Ying and Chu Wen-Fei found it awkward too and hurried over to mediate.
Only then did Old Master Qiu look more appeased, and the resentment in his heart dissipated quite a bit.
"It's not that I'm angry. But today is Qiushui Logistics' ribbon-cutting ceremony. On this festive occasion, it's bad for our image to bring up that stupid company's name. How about this? If Mr Shen can start over and offer me a toast, I won't bear a grudge," said Old Master Qiu as he flaunted his seniority and put on airs.
It seemed like Shen Jiu-Wan's respectful behavior to the Qiu family made Old Master Qiu's head swell. When he spoke to Shen Jiu-Wan, he sounded as though he was ordering him around.
But Shen Jiu-Wan instantly became stunned when he heard them. Then he asked, "What did you say? Is this Qiushui Logistics' ribbon-cutting ceremony? Isn't it Mufan Real Estate's opening ceremony?"
Shen Jiu-Wan was a little lost as he stared at all of them. He immediately asked when he sensed something was seriously wrong.
"Of course not. Mufan Real Estate is nothing but trash. How can it compare to Qiushui Logistics' extravagance and prestige? They don't even have the right to be compared with us," said Wang Qiao-Yu smugly.
Shen Jiu-Wan shouted the moment he heard this, "Shut up! How could a dumb woman like you insult a company as lofty as Mufan Real Estate? Thankfully, Master Er isn't around. Otherwise, you will die today right here just for saying that!"
Shen Jiu-Wan sounded so harsh that Wang Qiao-Yu almost went limp in fear instantly. She shrank back with her face blanched as though truly petrified that Shen Jiu-Wan would claim her life.
"What? Mr Shen, what do you mean by that? Aren't you here to congratulate Qiushui Logistics?” asked Old Master Qiu quizzically as he frowned.
"What the hell is Qiushui Logistics? I'm here to attend Mufan Real Estate's opening ceremony and congratulate them," said Shen Jiu-Wan in a low voice that wasn't polite at all.
"Mufan Real Estate? Isn't that the tiny company across the road?" asked one of the guests softly.
Shen Jiu-Wan only realized his error when he heard him.
