Chapter 126 Lin Wan said, looking at them together is so strange
The banquet hosted by Zhi Guo was low-key, but it attracted many people who tried every means to attend.
On the one hand, many people also want to climb up this new rich man in B city. Knowing that Qizhiguo has made a big fortune overseas, they naturally want to come and take a share of the spoils. On the other hand, policy changes are fast, and many people also want to leave themselves a way out, just in case there is a place where Qizhiguo can be used, it's good to know him for more communication.
However, Qizhiguo is also a bit of a ghost, knowing that too much hybridization is not good for himself, attracting attention, and having some impact on what he does, so generally do not socialize with others.
Outside the hotel, high-rise buildings stand tall, and the greenery between trees makes the streets seem somewhat gloomy at night. Even on a sweltering summer day, it seems to bring a few degrees of coolness.
A black Bentley drove through rows of luxury cars, led by a doorman and stopped in a parking space inside.
Black patent leather shoes stepped onto the stone path outside, straight pant legs, and the slender legs inside made them stand out even more.
Xiao Qian got off the bus and looked around at the surrounding cars.
Not bad, quite a few people have come.
He held up the front of his clothes with both hands, smoothed out his clothes, and then walked in.
There were also many familiar faces attending the banquet, but there were still people who felt surprised when they noticed him. After all, from the Xiao family's standpoint, it was actually not suitable for them to appear here. One was a proper and upright person who grew up in the imperial city, while the other was someone who often engaged in speculation and profiteering overseas. How could they be mentioned together?
However, Xiao Qian came anyway.
He entered the banquet hall with an invitation card, looking at the rotating crystal chandelier below, where people were dressed in various attire, some walking together in pairs or threes, and socialites floating around during the party, dazzling everyone's eyes.
"Xiao Qian, you just arrived." Lu Qinghuan's voice rose from behind, Xiao Qian turned around and exchanged a smile with Lu Qinghuan.
"We were delayed on the road, but fortunately we didn't arrive late," Xiao Qian said as he walked shoulder to shoulder with Lu Qinghuan, his eyes scanning the surroundings with a subtle intensity.
Lu Qinghuan said, "How can you be alone?"
"Hmm...not with you." Xiao Qian's lips curled up in a smile, his eyes shining like beautiful glass beads, sparkling as he gazed at Lu Qinghuan.
"Alright... I thought you'd at least bring a date, but you didn't bring anyone... I'm also happy, it's been a long time since we've had a good chat together."
Xiao Qian smiled faintly, his eyes falling on Lu Qinghuan's body, as if clear water had washed over.
Xiao Qian looked at Lu Qinghuan and said, "You haven't eaten yet."
Two people were about to go get something to fill their stomachs, when someone nearby looked at Xiao Qian and Lu Qinghuan, was taken aback for a moment, then hastily replied, "Director Xiao, I didn't expect to run into you here."
He looked at Lu Qinghuan again, "Miss Lu, you're very popular lately, it's hard to even get an appointment with you."
Lu Qinghuan smiled awkwardly and hid beside Xiao Qian, secretly wrapping his arm around Xiao Qian's.
Xiao Qian lowered his head and glanced at the hand she stretched out, grasping his arm, tightly pinching his sleeve. Xiao Qian's eyebrows jumped involuntarily, he raised his head, a faint smile hanging on his lips, and said to the person in front of him, "Long time no see."
Gu Yan glanced at the time, it was already very late, she bit her lip, calculating the start time of the banquet.
She didn't have an invitation card and obviously couldn't get in by herself.
But let her go apologize to Xiao Qian now, how can she do it.
Her self-esteem wouldn't allow it, nor would her hardened heart.
She opened her address book and scanned through it for people who might be able to help.
She didn't believe she could get in unless Xiao Qian was with her.
Gu Yan's address book had several pages, with people who were powerful, influential, and wealthy, all of whom were included. However... in this society, it wasn't that occasional cooperation meant they were already friends. The ties of interest bound them together, making them solid, but also cold.
Gu Yu leaned against it, rubbing her brow, but saw Lin Wan's number jumping out.
Gu Yu picked up the phone and said, "What's going on calling me at this hour?"
"Oh, it's nothing, let's go out for tea."
"It's okay, I'll have plenty of tea to drink soon." Gu Yan leaned against it weakly.
"What......"
"I just don't know if the tea at the police station will be good to drink, I'm afraid they'll make black tea, although it's strong, but drinking too much will stain your teeth."
"Hey, Gu Yan, how did you end up in the police station..."
"It's not that thing..."
"Haven't solved it yet?"
"Hmm, it was originally somewhat promising."
"What's next?"
"Then I let myself be done in."
Lin Wan listened to Gu Yan's account of what had happened, how Xiao Qian had smashed her car, how she had quarreled with Xiao Qian, and then in a fit of anger hadn't gone to the banquet...
Lin Wan yelled into the phone, "You're useless! What's the point of complaining to yourself in this empty room? How can you do anything about it? No matter how much you try to make excuses for me, I won't accept it!"
"Key is... how to get back..."
Lin Wan said, "I also don't agree with you calling Xiao Qian. This man is like a dog, he has the best memory. If you compromise once, next time he'll be like a dog, urinating in the same place and still giving you attitude."
"Yes, yes." Gu Yan nodded in agreement.
"Hey, which hotel were you talking about?"
"It's M.K.-LAN."
"Damn it, why didn't you tell me earlier? That's my uncle's store, don't you know?"
"Huh?"
"Wait, I'll think of a way to get you in."
Half an hour later, Gu Yan wore a light-colored long dress with a fork-like design at the back and a silver button on top. A straight line was drawn from the back to the front, fastening the two sides together into a back buckle. The white skin of her back was faintly visible inside, adding a few more points of charm and etherealness to Gu Yan's entire figure.
After getting off the car, Gu Yu held a small silver-gray handbag in her hand and picked up the phone to look at Lin Wan's number for a long time.
Until a text message came over, Lin Wan said, let her go inside, the road had been opened.
Gu Yan followed him in and searched around the luxurious hotel before finally finding Lin Wan.
"Oh my goodness, you've just arrived, come in quickly, if someone finds out, it's not good for M-K-LAN's reputation, don't you business people value integrity? If I sneak you in, that would be dishonest, M-K-LAN's confidentiality has always been top-notch."
Gu Yu listened to Lin Wan's nagging and hurriedly ran inside.
Lin Wan looked at Gu Y and said, "We sneaked in quietly, so let's keep a low profile for now. Since you're Mrs. Xiao, no one will suspect you if you came in. It's me who shouldn't stay here too long. I'm just an 18-line small celebrity, nobody knows me, someone will definitely think it's strange."
Lin said, raising his head and pointing inside, "Just now I saw Qi Zhi Guo, it's estimated that he will be out soon, preparing in the back, maybe he will go on stage to give a speech or something."
"Where?" said Gu Yan.
Lin Wandao said, "That place is off-limits to humans, but have you ever seen Qizhi Country before?"
"He's never seen before, and he has no connection with the Xiao family. He even has some resistance to the Xiao family, possibly thinking that they are too rigid and won't like their new style, so they've always been separate."
Gu Yu and Lin Wan walked in, found a place to drink a big mouthful of water, looking at the house full of handsome men and beautiful women, as well as the rich people with oily faces, "I've only heard that he's over 40 years old, lived abroad for several years, but I really haven't seen him in person."
Lin Wandao said, "Anyway, it doesn't look good if it's long."
Lin Wan said, suddenly seeing inside, a familiar shadow, appeared in front of her eyes.
She was taken aback and hastily touched Gu Yan.
Gu Yu received the information and raised her head.
Xiao Qian was holding hands with Lu Qinghuan.
It seemed like they were saying something, a few people standing together, Lu Qinghuan's height just reached Xiao Qian's shoulder, with a delicate and lovely appearance, making those who saw her feel jealous.
Lin Wanbian then ignited the fire first.
"What the heck is she talking about? I know he's a married man."
Gu Yu hurriedly blocked Lin Wan, "Don't go."
Lin Wan said, "Although this is a legitimate ceremony, why put it on their two bodies, the more I look at it, the more unorthodox it becomes."
Gu Yu looked in Xiao Qian's direction, a jade tree standing in the wind, among the crowd, he stood out like a crane among chickens, standing straight.
Xiao Qian only felt a pair of eyes choking him, an uncomfortable feeling on his back, turned around, and saw Gu Yan standing not far away, what a slender beauty, like a cloud drifting by, with a hint of stubbornness and bias in her gaze, staring at him, when their eyes met.
Her eyes flashed with anger and she turned away at once.
By the way... there will be an update later tonight~
