Chapter 529: Many acquaintances at the banquet, Xie Ling’s past
Gu Bai also accepted everyone's compliments, looking like a gentleman.
He pretended not to care and said to the people around him, "Women are just willing to chat a few words, and everyone will laugh."
That's what I said, but I couldn't hide the pride on my face.
Chang Rui was his first woman after losing Sheng Xi, and she was also the fiancée his grandfather found for him.
She has a top-notch family background and good character. She is also considerate and never loses her temper with him. Compared with Sheng Xi, Chang Rui is more suitable to be his wife.
But he couldn't forget Sheng Xi, nor her smile. How many times he thought Chang Rui sleeping beside her was Sheng Xi in a trance.
He also knew that Sheng Xi would come today, so he brought Chang Rui here.
He just wanted Sheng Xi to see that without him, there were still countless outstanding women around him.
Although Gu Bai was talking to everyone, he kept looking at the door of the banquet hall and inadvertently looked at his watch several times.
at last
When it's almost eight o'clock
Gu Bai finally saw Sheng Xi, who had arrived late, and someone he never thought he would see here, and that was Zhou Yi
Banquet hall entrance
As soon as Zhou Yi, Sheng Xi, and Yang Zhong showed up, they attracted the attention and attention of all dignitaries and upper-class celebrities in the banquet hall.
Zhou Yi stood there, with a red ribbon tied around her wrist, and her exquisite facial features revealed her unique arrogance.
Her skin is as white as winter snow, and her black dress makes her figure look slender.
Under the bright lights of the hotel, Zhou Yi raised her eyebrows slightly. Her eyes were cold under her long eyelashes. One side of her hair was casually tucked behind her ear, revealing her beautiful face.
Sheng Xi held Yang Zhong's arm and saw everyone who was stunned. She was very proud. It wasn't until she coughed lightly that everyone came back to their senses.
"Is this Sheng Xi? She's Yang's chief designer. The beauty next to her looks familiar. I think I've seen her somewhere?"
"Me too, I know Sheng Xi. The girls around her look familiar, but I don't think I've seen them in the upper class."
"Oh my god, what are you looking at? Isn't this the boss behind the scandal that was in the entertainment newspapers two days ago?"
"OMG, when you said that, I remembered. Isn't this the boss behind Yang who founded Yang when she was still a minor, a magical Chinese woman?"
"I still can't believe that such a woman created such a huge fashion empire. It's really unbelievable."
Gu Bai, who was also in the crowd, looked at Sheng Xi wearing a red dress. When he saw Yang Zhong next to her, his eyes instantly turned sinister.
It was Sheng Xi who was picked up by this man when he was in the hotel last time. Sure enough, the two of them were together. Damn it.
Sheng Xi also saw Gu Bai in the crowd staring at her like a wolf, her hair standing on end.
What does Gu Bai's look mean? It’s so damn permeable, why did I fall in love with such a disgusting man at that time?
Who hasn't met a scumbag in their youth? Fortunately, Sister Youyi, otherwise she would have been doomed.
Sheng Xi quickly hugged Yang Zhong tightly, looking for some sense of security.
She finally knew that the Gu family were all perverts, and she never wanted to have anything to do with the Gu family again in her life.
Zhou Yi ignored everyone's comments and walked directly to the sofa in the corner.
The old rule is to find a corner where no one is around
Sheng Xi and Yang Zhong originally wanted to follow them, but there were many people here who were from the same circle. When they saw Sheng Xi coming in, they all took the initiative to say hello.
In fact, everyone wanted to get close to Zhou Yitao, but they were all suppressed by Zhou Yi's aura, so they could only retreat and say hello to Sheng Xi.
Sheng Xi could only hold a wine glass and hold Yang Zhong's arm to greet the people who came up to say hello.
Zhou Yi sat alone on the sofa, slowly taking out her mobile phone and opening a popular new game.
Sit casually, as casually as if you were sitting on the sofa at home
People around him intentionally or unintentionally looked at where Zhou Yi was sitting, but in a tacit understanding, none of them stepped forward to say hello.
After a while, Zhou Yi took down the last head and half-squinted his eyes.
She saw Sheng Xi and Yang Zhong who were still chatting with others not far away. They got up and walked to the balcony alone.
balcony
Xie Ling stood alone on the edge of the balcony, looking at the lights of thousands of houses in the distance, and then looked back at the feasting and feasting in the banquet hall.
Everyone has a hypocritical face, and they are all here to seek their own interests.
Just when Xie Ling took a sip of red wine and was about to turn around and return to the banquet hall, a man and his female companion came over with open teeth and claws.
Xie Ling's face immediately darkened when he saw the person coming, and he wanted to ignore this person and walk over.
As soon as he took a step forward, the man and his charming female companion called out to Xie Ling.
"Why are you leaving so fast? Xie Ling, we are half-brothers after all, so we don't need to be so unfamiliar when we meet."
The charming woman saw a flash of uneasiness on Xie Ling's face, but then she looked at Xie Ling as if nothing had happened, like a stranger.
The man's face was swollen, and he looked like he had been drained by alcohol and sex. His small eyes stared at Xie Ling with evil intentions.
Xie Ling stopped
He tightened his hands slightly and adjusted his gold-rimmed glasses. His eyes were full of disgust for the man and woman in front of him.
"Xie Jin, the blood flowing in everyone's body is so dirty. You are just following him to beg for mercy and get the opportunity to work in Xie's company. Get away."
Xie Jin's face instantly turned ugly when he heard this, and the hand of the charming woman beside him fell unconsciously.
Xie Jin said disdainfully, "Xie Ling, since you know that our bodies are full of dirty blood, who is better than the other, so what if I beg for mercy? I can live a life of fine clothes, fine food, luxury cars, beautiful women, shares, and everything else." Yes, what do you have? Shame? You were kicked out of the Xie family by your father, and you can only study hard with a scholarship. What do you have to be proud of?"
Xie Ling looked at Xie Jin and sneered. He was not stimulated by his words at all. His eyes were deep.
Xie Ling's indifference angered Xie Jin, and what he said was even more unpleasant.
"Xie Ling, why don't you study medicine instead of studying finance? Any lofty ideals you have are just nonsense. What's the point of studying medicine? If you don't just rely on that little scholarship, you won't even get a cent from the Xie family in the future. No, pretend to be noble here and say that you will be Doctor Po Tian in the future. Why are you so crazy here? If you were rich, why would Nina leave you? Hahahahaha."
Xie Jin's previous words could not hurt Xie Ling at all, but the last words were like a knife piercing his heart.
Even though three years have passed, Xie Ling still can't let go easily after this wound has been opened like this.
The voluptuous woman Xie Jin said was the only one Xie Ling ever talked about and was also his first love Nina.
Back then, Xie Jin easily pried her away from Xie Ling because she had a luxury car and a check for five million.
The two of them were together carrying Xie Ling. If Xie Ling hadn't found out, they would have kept Xie Ling in the dark and looked like a fool.
After Xie Ling found out, he immediately broke up with Nina, and Nina has been by Xie Jin's side openly until now.
There are many women around Xie Jin, but the reason why he always keeps Nina is to find opportunities to stimulate Xie Ling at all times.
The old man was even more proud of Xie Ling back then. If Xie Ling hadn't taken the initiative to leave the Xie family, everything Xie Jin got now would belong to Xie Ling.
So for so many years, Xie Jin has always regarded Xie Ling as an imaginary enemy, and used some despicable methods against Xie Ling whenever he had the opportunity.
