Chapter 75: Another City
Gu Chen didn't ask any more questions about Li Yang and me, he just quietly left like that. He's always been this way, nobody will ever know what he's really thinking. But it's good this way, at least it shows Gu Chen temporarily believed my explanation.
Then suddenly it was the school anniversary.
Ning Jing was busy preparing for the school celebration program, which made us three other girls nervous. Ning Jing attaches great importance to this performance, I wanted to prepare a dress for her, but then I thought of the embarrassing incident at the birthday party and gave up. Fortunately, there is Xia Ling Cheng, Ning Jing's boyfriend, the young master of the Xia Group, it's not difficult to get a dress, right?
As the nominal leader of A University now, I naturally have to go on stage to give a speech. Moreover, I was arranged in the most central position in the auditorium, which is very eye-catching.
The school also invited Gu Huamin and Shen Bieru, but they probably wouldn't show up in this kind of setting. It's already giving enough face by sending Gu Liuyi. Gu Liuyi was sitting on my left side, while on the nameplate to my right side, the three characters "Xia Ling Cheng" were written in a majestic and elegant font, which was also within expectations.
It's said that the Qiao family was also invited, but no one from the Qiao family came recently. It wasn't until I asked Gu Liuyi that I found out today is Old Lady Qiao's birthday banquet, so it's reasonable that no one came.
Fang Mingyue came to look for Gu Chen with great enthusiasm, but after searching around, she couldn't find him. It wasn't until later that she found out Gu Chen hadn't come at all today, and so she left dejectedly.
Yes, Gu Chen hasn't arrived yet. I'm lost in thought, and for some reason, I feel a little down.
I accompanied Su Yan in the background with a tense Ning Jing, while Xu Luo ran off somewhere, she was always the most active one at this kind of gathering.
Ning Jing is going to perform a romantic short play, a story of childhood sweethearts, which will be put on in the third act. Ning Jing is undoubtedly the female lead, and as for the male lead, it's her classmate Ban Cao, who is also a handsome boy.
"Miss, what are you doing here? Young Master has been looking for you for a long time." Aaron, Gu Liuyi's assistant, walked over and said to me.
I responded with a sound, and said to Ning Jing and Su Yan: "Su Su, you stay here with Ning Jing for now, I have something to take care of." I couldn't help but sneak a peek at Su Yan's expression, which seemed natural. They both knew who Aaron meant by "young master", but no one mentioned it. Ning Jing smiled and told me to go first, and Su Yan also had a smile on her face.
Just as he walked to the front, he saw Gu Liuyi standing there surrounded by several men in suits. His eyebrows and eyes were cold, with a mature and capable air about him. There were not a few girls gathered nearby who would occasionally turn their gaze towards Gu Liuyi, whispering among themselves.
I let out a snort and walked away with a swagger.
Gu Liuyi was the first to notice me, and he beckoned me over with a wave of his hand. "Ah Qian, come quick." As soon as he waved at me, several men around him also turned their heads to look at me, and almost instantly knew my identity.
Those men were all bright and handsome, with a natural air of nobility. Immediately, someone cleverly said: "I suppose this is the young lady from the Gu family, the younger sister of Young Master Gu?" As soon as he finished speaking, several other men also chimed in, some saying I was beautiful, others that I had good temperament, and still others that I truly was extraordinary.
I just smiled politely, distant and courteous. Under the gaze of so many eyes, I obediently walked to Gu Liu's side and called out "brother".
Gu Liuyi nodded and said to the men around him, "I have something to discuss with my sister, I've understood what you all just said." The implication of hurrying them away was quite clear.
Those men were mostly mixed in the business circle, each of them was a clever person, naturally understood the meaning of "flowing and overflowing", and they all walked away after a brief greeting.
