Chapter 14 The Confidence of the Mystery Gu Allure
"Why did you come here yourself?" After leaving, Gu Qingcheng raised the question in her heart, and she was as puzzled as Yan Rong.
Xiao Shaoqing glanced at Gu Qingcheng, threw a document next to the seat to her, and continued to drive the car with his eyes in front of him.
Gu Tingcheng took the document and opened it to see, isn't this the information of the jewelry conference that their department is responsible for? It's just that there are more pictures of antique hand-jewelry on display in front of me, which Gu Tingcheng has never touched. His eyes stayed on a beautiful bracelet picture, and Gu Qingcheng stopped the movement in his hand.
The bracelet in the picture is made of precious metals and jade, and the surface of the bracelet is evenly inlaid with five gemstones of different colors of red, yellow, blue, green and purple.
"This bracelet is in Rong Yan's hand?" Gu Tingcheng probably guessed something after looking at the picture, but she still asked with some uncertainty.
"Yes." Xiao Shaoqing replied briefly.
"You're aiming for this bracelet?" Gu Qingcheng asked again, and the expression on his face became solemn.
"Yes." There were no superfluous words, but Gu Tingcheng sorted out all the clues.
"You brought me here on purpose today, but unfortunately I didn't feel the breath of the immortal chain." Gu Qingcheng looked sideways at Xiao Shaoqing's angular face, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Why do you want to lock the immortal chain?" ”
"You'll know this later, now you just have to stay by my side." Xiao Shaoqing's hand holding the steering wheel tightened unconsciously, he has always been careful, but today he overestimated himself.
Who the hell is that Rong Yan? Is the chain in his hands? Did he also discover Gu Tingcheng's identity? A flurry of greetings swirled through his mind, and he finally made a decision.
"Stay with me today, and tomorrow I'll send someone to take you to an island, and I'll pick you up before the jewelry show begins."
I had never heard Xiao Shaoqing say so many things at one time, Gu Qingcheng didn't react for a while, and only said after a while, "What? What islands to go to? Why? ”
"Woman, you're too long-winded." Xiao Shaoqing's cold voice made Gu Qingcheng excited, and he obediently closed his mouth.
The car drove all the way to the entrance of the highway next to the suburbs, Gu Tingcheng didn't know where Xiao Shaoqing was going to take her now, the scorching sun was over, so she just took a nap.
Gu Qingcheng didn't expect that he would sleep until the evening. When she woke up, she saw that she was lying comfortably in the back seat, and the position of the cab was no longer Xiao Shaoqing, but a strange man in black.
"You are?" Gu Qingcheng spoke slowly, and his voice still had a thick nasal voice when he just woke up.
The man in black heard her voice, turned his head to her and said, "Miss Gu, the president woke you up and went to the banquet hall to find him." ”
Gu Chengcheng circled around, the scene seemed to make people in the European castle of the last century, the colorful lights reflected the prosperity and liveliness here, the open gate not far in front of it shot a bright light, and a red carpet was spread along the steps to the location of the parking lot. At this time, many guests are stepping on the red carpet and entering the banquet hall.
Gu Tingcheng stood aside and looked at the gorgeously dressed guests, as well as the ladies and rich ladies with exquisite makeup, she was only dressed in cheap professional clothes, her face was not decently smeared with inferior cosmetics, and her big black-framed eyes covered most of her face.
Is Xiao Shaoqing really afraid that she will lose face with him? Gu Tingcheng didn't understand why he wanted to bring her on such a grand occasion, since he was not afraid of losing face, then she was even more afraid.
She could anticipate how many sneering glances she would receive when she stepped into the banquet hall, and since she could pretend to be ugly, she had to be prepared to be baptized by strange stares no matter what the occasion.
Looking at the gate in the distance and taking a deep breath, Gu Qingcheng stepped on the red carpet in front of him. Although I had been prepared, there were still some small discussions in my ears.
"Who is this man? Dressed so shabbyly, is it also a guest invited by Mu's? ”
"No, look at her face, it's really the only one in heaven and on earth!" Someone sighed, and a low laugh was heard.
"She's like this, I think it's like a street sweeper in the wrong place." Another person speculated.
"I think so."
"It's really beyond her strength, I think it's just like her, I guess someone will come and let her leave soon."
"Could it be a descendant of the Mu family, this is too unruly"
………… One or two are getting more and more outrageous.
Fortunately, Gu Chengcheng usually heard a lot of such words in the company, and she had some immunity, the more she listened, the more she didn't care about it, so she simply let go of her pace, strode past the guests in front of her, and looked arrogant, which made those who were talking about her before stunned for a while.
Mu Lian, who was standing at the gate, looked at Gu Qingcheng with such an imposing attitude, and couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded, where did this ugly woman get her confidence!
Bai Xiu on the side touched the glass in Mu Lian's hand with a wine glass, took a sip of wine and said, "This is the woman that the boss asked you to bring in?" ”
Mu Lian looked at Gu Qingcheng, who was about to approach, and brought the cup to his mouth, he now urgently needed to take a sip of wine to suppress the shock.
"The boss is talking about a very ugly woman, who is she if she is not?"
Bai Xiu smiled gloatingly, "Mu Lian, congratulations, it's rare to stay with such an ugly person." ”
"Don't you think she's a little familiar?" Mu Lian suddenly said with a golden light in her eyes.
"Hearing you say that, I really don't think I've seen her somewhere."
"That ugly woman at the bar!" The two thought for a while and said in unison.
I didn't think she really had anything to do with their boss.
Seeing Gu Tingcheng walk up the steps, Mu Lian greeted him, "Miss Gu, eldest brother asked me to take you to him." ”
Gu Qingcheng looked at the people in front of her and felt a little familiar, and when Bai Xiu appeared in front of her, she finally remembered who they were. The boss in their mouths should be Xiao Shaoqing.
"Trouble lead the way, thank you." Gu Tingcheng didn't want to have more complications, so he pretended not to know.
"It seems that Miss Gu is really a noble person, how forgetful!" Mu Lian deliberately lengthened her voice, and seeing that Gu Qingcheng's expression did not fluctuate at all, she said again, "Then Miss Gu, please come here." ”
Today is grandpa's birthday, and since the person who comes is a guest, Mu Lian also treats him with courtesy and brings Gu Tingcheng into the banquet hall.
The melodious sound of the piano echoed in the ballroom, and a small stage was temporarily arranged in the center of the hall, surrounded by flowers, but not without losing its beauty. On both sides of the stage, champagne towers and custom-made 12-tiered birthday cakes are placed, and a large peach at the top of the cake is particularly eye-catching.
There were already a lot of people standing in the hall, and the cups were staggered, and it was very lively.
