At that time, she announced her departure from the Chen Group in public through the live broadcast platform of the press conference, so Gu Nianci was able to learn the news as soon as possible, which in itself was not something to make a fuss about, and what made her feel inexplicable was that Gu Nianci was so aware of her situation, why did she put on such a good relationship with her?

After all, the number of times two people meet is only a handful, not to mention the number of times they submit talks, which is almost negligible.

Su Jiarui couldn't help but be suspicious, could it be that he could have any other use value here in Gu Nianci?

As the saying goes, don't hit a smiling person, even if she feels that the current atmosphere is a little weird and inexplicable, she has no choice but to bite the bullet and clink glasses with Gu Nianci, which is considered a balance in social etiquette.

The red liquor swayed along the wall of the glass, and it had already undergone the process of decanting, so that the aged wine had less spicy excitement and more mellow and long aftertaste at the moment of entry, even if someone like Su Jiarui was not proficient in wine tasting, he could taste it somewhat, and this wine was probably worth a lot of money.

When it comes to food and wine tasting, she can be considered a complete layman.

Although she had just come to Cloud City, Yin Hanmei had reprimanded her mercilessly in front of her subordinates more than once because she couldn't get used to her so-called "vulgar" words and deeds, but it seemed that the unforgiving words alone obviously could not calm the anger in her heart, and then I don't know which day, she actually brought her directly in front of her, with a cold face and said that she was educating her all kinds of etiquette, but in fact, she just wanted to abuse her in a high-sounding manner.

How to eat steaks with different degrees of doneness, how to cut different types of steaks, how to clearly taste the differences between different vintages of red wine, where to put your hands on the knife and fork when holding the knife and fork, how many times to chew when chewing, etc., these boring and seemingly unnecessary teachings were a lingering nightmare in Su Jiarui's mind at that time.

She is often forced to drink red wine of different years on an empty stomach and eat a variety of steaks of different degrees of ripeness at one time, so that her stomach is full of vomiting and diarrhea all day long, but until the end, she did not become the kind of existence that can at least be elegant in Yin Hanmei's eyes, on the contrary, because she keeps eating food she doesn't like and drinking all kinds of red wine with a low alcohol content, so that her sense of taste and smell will become more and more dull because of this.

This also leads to her being quite sluggish to this kind of basic skill of appreciation, which is almost the entry threshold for upper-class people, but fortunately, no one cared about her every move before, and she didn't bother to laugh at her unpopular behavior.

After all, most of the people who can participate in the banquet have their own purposes, and they want to make friends with real famous families like the Chen family and the Wu family, such as the Su family, a family that can barely be named, and it is only because of Su Ru, who is favored by Chen Cheng, that they can barely occupy a place in a place like Yuncheng that eats people and does not spit out bones.

Su Ru still has some attachment value, and Su Jiarui, she is just an illegitimate daughter who doesn't even deserve her name, who cares what stupid things she did.

"I'm sorry, I'm really not very proficient in this area, and I may have to waste Miss Gu's good intentions."

All kinds of past came to mind, and Su Jiarui, together with the surging smell of alcohol, forcibly suppressed the discomfort, and tried to maintain the comfort on the surface.

Regarding Su Jiarui's sincerity, Gu Nianci did not show too much disappointment, but gracefully took another plate of exquisite desserts and put them in front of Su Jiarui.

"Don't say it, Miss Su. Look at me, but I'm sluggish, I don't know your dietary preferences and I'm introducing it randomly, in this case, Miss Su why don't try this dessert, this is the signature of this hotel, the taste is dense, and many daughters of the family come here to have a tea party in order to eat this dessert. ”

Seeing Gu Nianci treating herself with such a familiar appearance, the suspicion in Su Jiarui's heart increased a little, but Gu Nianci, who was the host on the other side, didn't say anything, and she, the invited guest, was embarrassed to dwell on this issue, so she could only bite the bullet and eat a meal of refreshments with Gu Nianci, who had always behaved strangely on the other side.

After finishing a meal, because of Gu Nianci's abnormal attitude, it made Su Jiarui even more worried.

"Miss Su, I don't know if today's meal still has your appetite?"

Su Jiarui pursed her lips, in the end, she still didn't want to continue to get along with Gu Nianci in this weird atmosphere, since Gu Nianci hadn't said anything yet, she had to take the initiative to ask.

"Thank you for inviting me today, but I still want to ask, what is Miss Gu asking me to come here for today?"

Although Gu Nianci and Gu Nian are the same people in the Gu family, their style of action is very different, she can become a best friend with Gu Nian who talks about everything, but in the face of Gu Nianci, who has been in the mall for many years, she knew from the beginning of meeting each other that the two of them were not all the way at all.

Although from the perspective of origin, both of them are the daughters of the Gu family, although the age difference is not much, but in terms of generation, Gu Nianci is still Gu Nian's elder, but the growth experience of the two is very different.

Gu Nianci has been taken by Mr. Gu since she was a child, and when Gu Nian was still abroad and swaying her youth for the activities she loved, Gu Nianci was being taken by Mr. Gu's side, attending all kinds of noble banquets, making friends with powerful people and accumulating contacts for her. Let's pick up the book

Gu Nianci is almost ignorant of the business strategy of the shopping mall, it can be said that he is a rampant daughter who is not afraid of the sky and the earth, but Gu Nianci is a gifted student who has been decent since he was a child.

However, just when everyone thought that Old Man Gu was more devoted to Gu Nianci, he suddenly took Gu Nian, who grew up abroad, back to his side, replacing Gu Nianci's original position and helping Gu Nian broaden his network.

Therefore, although Gu Nianci and Gu Nian are both members of the Gu family and their names are relatively similar, they are almost two types of people who are strangers in action, Su Jiarui can become good friends with Gu Nian, who is pure and innocent in nature, and it is inevitable that he will not have too deep a relationship with Gu Nianci, who has been in the shopping mall for many years.

This is not only from a woman's intuition, but also a tacit understanding and bond between friends.

Seeing Su Jiarui's attitude, Gu Nianci didn't play Tai Chi with her anymore, but clapped his hands calmly and waved away the waiters around him.

In just a moment, only the two of them were left in the huge private room.

"Miss Su, now, you are more or less a well-known celebrity in Cloud City, this time I came to you, you guessed right, I do have something to ask for."

Got something to ask for?

Su Jiarui almost thought he had misheard.

The eldest lady of the dignified Jiangnan Gu family, how could there be anything that needed the help of an ordinary person like her?

"Miss Su, in fact, I won't tell you anything, from the very beginning, as a representative of the Jiangnan Gu family, when I reached a cooperation with Mr. Wu, I was selfish."

Su Jiarui was stunned when he heard this, and looked at Gu Nianci in confusion, such a mercenary businessman, who reached a cooperation with Wu Ming, would actually say that he was not because of interests, but because of selfishness?

What bold conjectures gradually surfaced in front of her with Gu Nianci's words, but she didn't dare to define it without permission.

"To tell you the truth, as the leader of this cooperation, in fact, when Jiangnan Gujia planned to carry out more in-depth business activities in Cloud City, there were countless enterprises that threw olive branches to our group, among them, many merchants gave us preferential treatment far beyond Far East Industrial, and even proposed not to charge us any ground rent and water and electricity bills in the first year of operation, and also help choose such conditions for free."

As she spoke, Gu Nianci raised her head, carefully observed Su Jiarui's expression, and hooked her lips slightly.

When Su Jiarui heard her say this, he couldn't help but be a little stunned.

In the first year of operation, there is no charge for land rent and water and electricity bills, and even free help to do promotion?! Such an opportunity is tantamount to pie in the sky.

But with the international popularity and influence of the Jiangnan Gu family, this situation is not unimaginable when you think about it carefully, after all, in addition to the Chen family and the Wu family, there are many businessmen in Yuncheng who want to ask for some benefits in the cracks, and the entry of the Jiangnan Gu family is naturally a good opportunity for them to promote their stores.

If you think about it this way, you would rather lose money at the beginning than be willing to win over Jiangnan Gujia, but in fact, you just take a fancy to the influence and potential purchasing power of the Jiangnan Gujia brand in the consumer group.

After all, no matter what kind of shopping mall it is, in the final analysis, it is still necessary to determine the consumption intensity and commercial value by the amount of customer flow, so it is reasonable for those businessmen to make concessions almost like land reparations in order to win over the Jiangnan Gu family, a walking money detector.

However, even in the face of such tempting conditions, Gu Nianci finally chose to cooperate with them, which in itself can indeed be regarded as an abnormal thing.

The cooperation between the two companies is just a strong alliance, and one of the major disadvantages of the strong alliance is that compared with the Chen family and the Wu family, the Jiangnan Gu family does not have much say in the business contract signed this time.

However, even so, what is the so-called selfishness that can make Gu Nianci nod in agreement?
