Chapter 33: The Plan Fails

During the banquet, Mo Yuqian searched all around, but he never found Shi Sheng's figure. When he saw Yan Momo at the door of the corridor, he subconsciously returned to the corridor.

As soon as he came out of the side door, he saw a familiar figure standing at the door of the utility room next to the bathroom, and he hurriedly took a step and hid around the corner.

Gu Yueqing stood at the door of the utility room for a while, and then left directly through the other door.

Mo Yuqian waited thoughtfully around the corner, and did not walk out immediately. Sure enough, after some time, the door to the utility room was opened from the inside again.

Shi Sheng walked in the other direction in a distracted manner, his shoulders slightly collapsed, and his expression was lonely. Seeing that she was about to hit the wall at the end of the hallway one step further, he immediately trotted after her, stopping her behind her.

Looking at her lonely and hurt expression, his heart seemed to be struck by a blunt knife, and he reached out to put his arm around her shoulder before he had time to think.

Shi Sheng raised his head in surprise, "Senior? ”

"Why did you stay in the bathroom for so long?" Mo Yuqian let go of his hand and pulled her towards the venue.

"I ......," she hesitated, not knowing how to explain to him for a moment.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, but I haven't seen you come back, I'm worried that you're lost, so I hurried over to find you." Mo Yuqian observed her out of the corner of his eye, "You shouldn't really get lost, right?" ”

"yes, this banquet hall is too big, I searched for the bathroom twice." This was true, but she felt very empty-hearted.

"That's right," he paused, taking her cold hand and holding it up, "I'll lead you in the future, and you won't get lost." ”

Shi Sheng looked at the hands held by the two in a daze, and his heart panicked even more. At this moment, she was like duckweed on the sea, she knew that she urgently needed a boat that could reach the shore, but the man in front of her who was as warm as jade made her heart even more messy.

It didn't seem to be like this, the more Mo Yuqian didn't say anything, the more embarrassed and guilty she felt.

She gently withdrew her hand and stopped in place with her head down.

The waist-length hair that fell down covered half of her face, but Mo Yuqian didn't need to see the expression on her face to guess what kind of mood she was in at the moment.

Before looking for Shi Sheng, he had already noticed that Gu Yueqing was not at the scene. So when he saw Gu Yueqing's figure in the corridor, he wasn't surprised at all.

He knew very well that her current low mood and resistance to herself were all because of Gu Yueqing.

But he didn't say anything, if he made it clear, Shi Sheng was afraid that he would never give him the slightest chance to get close to her.

For him, it doesn't matter if she still has Gu Yueqing in her heart now, he is confident that in time, there will definitely be a place in her heart that belongs to him.

"What's wrong? Is it still painful in the foot? Mo Yuqian bent his upper body slightly and lowered his head to look at her.

Shi Sheng bit his lower lip and still didn't say a word. In the face of such a sincere Mo Yuqian, she didn't know how she should answer his question, telling the truth would hurt people, but if she wanted to lie to him again, she couldn't say anything.

"If you're not feeling well, let's go back first."

When she heard this, she suddenly raised her head, and there was a sparkle of water in her eyes.

For a moment, she seemed to realize that her reaction was too intense, so she turned her face away, relieved her mind, and said, "It's okay, I'...... I'm not used to wearing high heels. ”

"Well, I'll go and talk to the people of the Yan family, you wait for me at the door first."

Shi Sheng glanced at Gu Yueqing, who was surrounded by several people in the banquet hall, and even retracted his gaze, nodded, and said, "Okay." ”

After Mo Yuqian returned to the banquet hall, he first found Gu Yueqing's figure at the scene, and then went to Yan Hong to explain that they left first.

"What university did Gu Lu graduate from? What degree? Double PhDs? ”

"I heard that you have partnered with someone else to open a small office, how is the business? Do you want me to introduce you to some business? ”

"What kind of firm do you want to open, you can come directly to my company as a legal consultant, and you can open the salary at will!"

After Gu Yueqing came back from the utility room, he was always at ease with Shi Sheng who was left in the utility room, and when he was about to go back to find her, he was stopped by several partners in Yan Hong's business and sneered.

His cold gaze swept around the banquet hall inadvertently, and when he caught a glimpse of Mo Yuqian and Yan Hong chatting a few words before leaving quickly, his eyes sank, and he subconsciously looked for Shi Sheng's trace nearby.

He was about to lift his feet to leave, but was stopped by someone, and his eyes showed a strong impatience.

"You all have good results in your field, right?" Gu Yueqing swept contemptuously towards the four people in front of him, "I don't have talent, I just opened an inconspicuous law firm." ”

"A while ago, someone broke out that Wang's head office was in deficit and evaded taxes, I don't know if it's true?"

"Mr. Chen seems to be calm, but I don't know if your wife is knowing...... Good luck! ”

"Recently, someone has always given me things anonymously, and I still have a few documents in my hand, which seem to be about a few people, but in order to participate in Old Man Yan's birthday banquet, I haven't had time to read it yet."

"You ......"

Gu Yueqing pursed the corners of his mouth sarcastically, glanced at the watch in his hand casually, and said, "Momo should be looking for me at this time, I am not with you." ”

Without waiting for the reaction of the four people behind him who dared to be angry and did not dare to speak, he went straight around them and walked briskly towards the corridor.

With each step, the chagrin deepened in his heart. At that time, he shouldn't have left like that, he should have pressed her into his arms and kneaded her vigorously regardless of whether she was crying or not.

Thinking of Mo Yuqian's anxious departure just now, Gu Yueqing suspected that Shi Sheng might have followed Mo Yuqian to leave first.

But he still had a bit of luck, and walked around the banquet hall and the corridor, looking for her over and over again.

After finding Shi Sheng, what should he say? The silent crying she had just now kept reappearing in his memory, as if something in his chest was breaking through the confinement and shackles, wanting to erupt.

Gu Yueqing stopped at the end of the corridor and turned his back to look at the door of the utility room that was already open, as if he could see Shi Shengchuchu's pitiful appearance like this.

As if suddenly remembering something, he suddenly walked briskly towards the door of the venue.

"Yue Qing!" Coincidentally, at this time, Yan Momo, who was also looking for him everywhere, was standing at the entrance.

When Yan Momo saw him, she hurriedly trotted to him, "Where did you just go?" I searched everywhere and you couldn't find it. ”

She habitually pursed her mouth, looking pampered and aggrieved. Gu Yueqing looked at her like this, but the appearance of pear blossoms and rain in the utility room lingered in his mind.

Why would Shi Sheng never be so coquettish to him? Gu Yueqing lowered his head and saw that a pair of white and delicate arms had already wrapped up the crook of his arm, and his sword eyebrows furrowed slightly.

"What's the matter with me?"

"What else could it be?" Yan Momo stomped her feet, "It's time for us to go and celebrate the old man's birthday." ”

He frowned, "I didn't prepare anything. ”

Yan Momo grinned when she heard this, "I knew you would forget, don't worry, I'm ready, I guarantee that the old man will be satisfied, and by the way, I can also make you leave a good impression in the old man's heart!" ”

Hearing her say this, Gu Yueqing's brows locked even deeper. According to the meaning of Yan Momo's words, I am afraid that birthday celebrations are not as simple as giving gifts.

"Let's go, don't let the old man wait." As he spoke, he took him by the hand and trotted to the main table.

It wasn't until standing in front of the main table and Yan Momo introduced him in a proud gesture that Gu Yueqing realized that she was opening up their relationship to everyone.

"Grandpa, this is a birthday gift prepared for you by Yueqing."

Yan Momo held a piece of blue and white porcelain in front of the old man Yan, and saw that the old man took it and looked at it for a long time, and his eyebrows showed a look of surprise.

"This is good, very good! The young man has a good eye! ”

Hearing Old Man Yan's appreciation, Gu Yueqing did not feel a trace of joy, but felt impatient.

"Yue Qing, grandpa is praising you!"

Being reminded by Yan Momo, Gu Yueqing reluctantly responded.

Yan Hong, who was sitting next to Old Man Yan, looked unhappy, and the four partners he arranged just now found him angrily, saying that this Gu Yueqing was difficult to deal with, and he couldn't be ridiculed, but it caused their old bottom to be revealed.

Thinking of this, Yan Hong looked at Gu Yueqing's eyes with more and more hatred and viciousness.

Yan Momo took Gu Yueqing's hand and shook it, "Yueqing, my girlfriend is sweet enough, right?" ”

"Hmm." Gu Yueqing responded perfunctorily and quietly withdrew his arm.

Yan Hong saw that his daughter actually showed a flattering expression to such a poor sour boy, and he was immediately angry. He pushed Yan Mu, who was standing beside him, and whispered a few words in her ear.

Mother Yan looked Gu Yueqing up and down, nodded, and walked towards Yan Momo, who was still happy.

"Mom, what's wrong?" Yan Momo, who was suddenly pulled away, felt inexplicable.

"It's nothing, your dad asked me to take you home first."

"Why? Yueqing is still there! With that, she struggled to let go of Yan's mother's hand and walked to Gu Yueqing's side in three steps and step by step.

"Yueqing, why don't we go first?"

Yan Momo smiled brightly, tonight was a good night for her, and now everyone knows that Gu Yueqing belongs to her Yan Momo.

When Gu Yueqing heard this, he turned his head sideways and glanced at Yan Hong, who was silent on the stage, he had always been skeptical of Yan Hong's invitation.

He didn't believe that Yan Hong really wanted him to attend Old Man Yan's birthday banquet, and when he was stopped by those four people, he understood Yan Hong's purpose for doing this.

It's just like back then, just to let him retreat.

"Momo, it's so late, let's go home with my mother directly, so that people don't have to send you back when the time comes." Yan's mother stretched out her hand to pull her away.

"Mr. Gu, if you have something, go back early."

Gu Yue looked at them coldly, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, revealing a plausible smile, "Okay." ”

"Yue Qing!" Yan Momo struggled to pull his hand, "Yueqing, are you leaving like this?" ”

Gu Yueqing pulled her hand away, and a trace of impatience flashed in her cold and detached eyes, "Hmm." ”

Yan Hong walked up to Yan Momo's side and pressed her undead hand, "The road is blind with black lights, so pay attention to your nephew's driving." ”

Gu Yueqing looked at him indifferently, "I will, and the same words will be given to Mr. Yan." ”

After saying that, Gu Yueqing didn't look at Yan Momo again, and simply turned around and left.

Mother Yan let go of the hand holding Yan Momo and sighed helplessly.

In the sparse crowd, Gu Yueqing's simply indifferent back was deeply imprinted in Yan Momo's heart, and she became more and more suspicious that he had changed his mind, and the reason for the change of heart was probably a woman.
