Throwing cold water on her face, Zhong Qing looked at herself in the mirror and was stunned for a while before calming down, what was she doing just now? Seeing Gu Xiu and Xu Zhiyan kissing and running away? Could the awkwardness and sadness in my heart be the result of that scene...... Repulsion? But what qualifications does she have? That's Gu Xiu and Xu Zhiyan's business, isn't it?

At the door of the bathroom, Gu Ziyu waited until Zhong Qing came out and handed over the handkerchief.

"You're wearing some makeup." Gu Ziyu said: "I'll help you make it up." ”

"Thank you." Zhong Qing replied sullenly.

Gu Ziyu seriously touched up Zhong Qing's makeup, looking at Zhong Qing's absent-minded appearance, she couldn't help but speak: "Second brother and Xu Zhiyan ...... just now"

Zhong Qing suddenly grabbed Gu Ziyu's hand and said, "Let's go back first, they should be in a hurry." ”

"Xiaoqing, don't run away anymore." Gu Ziyu frowned, and said helplessly: "I'm not a fool, I can see that you have feelings for your second brother, why don't you just refuse to admit it?" You like Gu Xiu, what's so unspeakable? ”

Zhong Qing muttered, "Happy...... Like...... Is it? ”

"When Mu Cheng talked about the Gu Group before, you were more anxious than anyone else, and you wanted to help him more than anyone else when you saw that the second brother had an accident, Zhong Qing, I don't believe that after the second brother has done so many things for you, you can still say a word that you don't like him." Gu Ziyu looked down at Zhong Qing on the sofa and said, "But why?" Why don't you dare admit it? ”

"Is it because ...... The identity of the second brother? ”

"It's not!" Zhong Qing denied it anxiously, and then covered his forehead and said helplessly: "No, I don't like him, I don't like Gu Xiu......"

Gu Ziyu shrugged his shoulders and said, "Then when you saw the second brother and Xu Zhiyan kissing just now, your face was so ugly, are you jealous?" ”

Thinking of the picture of Gu Xiu and Xu Zhiyan kissing, and then thinking of the picture of himself and Gu Xiu kissing twice before, Zhong Qing felt that he was really a little abnormal.

How could you suddenly feel this way? As if she regarded Xu Zhiyan as an imaginary enemy, Zhong Qing remembered what Xu Zhiyan had said to her in the Japanese restaurant a long time ago, and then thought about everything she had done, she sighed helplessly.

"Let's go back." Zhong Qing hastily ended the topic, obviously reluctant to say more.

Gu Ziyu had no choice but to return to the banquet hall with Zhong Qing.

Xu Ruo, who was talking to the person in charge of the hotel division, saw Zhong Qing, said hello to the people around him and walked over, and saw that Zhong Qing's face was not very good-looking, and he was a little worried.

"Are you feeling unwell?" Xu Ruo asked.

"I'm fine." Zhong Qing smiled and disguised: "Maybe I'm a little hungry, just eat something." ”

Xu Ruo immediately explained a few words to the waiter next to him, and then picked up the pastries on the table and handed them to Zhong Qing, who took a bite, the taste in his mouth was sweet, but the taste in his heart was bitter.

Gu Xiu was looking for Zhong Qing in the banquet hall, and finally saw the familiar figure, and before he could walk over, he was held down by Gu Guosheng's shoulder.

Gu Xiu frowned and turned around, only to hear Gu Guosheng say, "Don't move yet, there is something to arrange for you." ”

Gu Xiu was patient and just wanted to ask what was the matter, when the lights in the banquet hall suddenly turned off, and a beam of light hit the stage in the middle of the venue, and everyone gathered around.

At this time, Gu Xiu was still concerned about Zhong Qing, and he didn't know what was happening around him.

Xu Jie slowly walked onto the stage in the eyes of everyone's expectation, and said, "Thank you friends for taking time out of your busy schedules to attend this banquet......

Gu Xiu wanted to go to Zhong Qing, but Gu Guosheng stopped him.

"Don't wander around." Gu Guosheng solemnly warned Gu Xiu: "There are very important things, you have to listen to my arrangement." ”

Gu Xiu was a little anxious: "What is the important thing......

At this moment, Xu Jie on the stage glanced at the direction of Gu Guosheng and Gu Xiu, Gu Xiu saw Gu Guosheng nodded, and then Xu Jie spoke: "The little girl found me two days ago and told me that she already has someone she likes, and the two of them are very fateful, they have been friends since they were abroad, and they have known each other for many years. ”

Hearing this, a bad premonition suddenly rose in Gu Xiu's heart, and he turned his head to look at Gu Guosheng, who avoided his gaze.

"What the hell is going on!" Gu Xiu said in a deep voice.

"Something that's good for you." Gu Guosheng said: "Don't mess up. ”

Xu Zhiyan walked up to the stage slowly, she looked very dazzling in a red dress, and she was incomparably beautiful under the illumination of the lights.

"As a father, I naturally have a hundred supports for my daughter's decision, so I want to announce today that my Xu Jie's daughter Xu Zhiyan is going to officially announce her engagement with my old friend Gu Guosheng's second son Gu Xiu!"

Gu Xiu's pupils exploded instantly, and all the guests around him applauded, Gu Guo held Gu Xiu's shoulder to death, even though he had already felt Gu Xiu's extraordinary anger.

Zhong Qing's hands and feet instantly became cold, and she pretended to be calm and looked at Xu Zhiyan on the stage, and the happy smile stabbed her eyes alive.

Zhong Qing drank all the red wine in the glass, but she felt that her chest was still on fire, she was a little out of breath, but she still stood stubbornly in place, without any collapse and sadness.

"I ......"

As soon as Gu Xiu wanted to say something, he heard Gu Guosheng warn in his ear: "Think about your mother, I have done so much for you!" ”

"You threaten me?" Gu Xiu gritted his teeth and said.

"I don't have a choice." Gu Guosheng said: "I want to stabilize your position in the Gu Group, Gu Xiu, I have also made a great sacrifice." ”

Gu Xiu saw Wei Mengjun and Gu Zihan's already green faces not far away, and took a deep breath.

"Go up, or I can't guarantee what will happen."

Thinking of his mother in the hospital, Gu Xiu walked on stage with a cold face, he stood stiffly beside Xu Jie, and saw Zhong Qing standing in a group of applauding and blessings at a glance, her expression was very calm, but Gu Xiu could see the sadness and pain in her heart at a glance.

On the one hand, he was his biological mother, and on the other hand, he was the woman he loved the most, Gu Xiu knew that any decision he made at the moment would affect the future, and his feet unconsciously took a step forward, wanting to find Zhong Qing.

But at this moment, Xu Zhiyan stood in front of Gu Xiu in front of everyone, she stood on tiptoe and kissed Gu Xiu's lips, and the audience was in an uproar - they all knew that the eldest lady of the Xu family had a big temper and acted resolutely, but she didn't expect to be so domineering in terms of feelings, and she actually showed her love to Gu Xiu in front of so many people, she really loved Gu Xiu.

The unfamiliar smell of perfume invaded his nasal cavity, Gu Xiu wanted to push Xu Zhiyan away, but the corners of his mouth suddenly tasted slightly salty tears, and Xu Zhiyan was crying.

"Just this once." Xu Zhiyan hugged Gu Xiu tightly and prayed in his ear: "Gu Xiu, I beg you, just this time, let me have a dream, okay?" ”

Gu Xiu suddenly thought that if she pushed Xu Zhiyan away at this time, then she would lose face in front of everyone, maybe this was the purpose of Gu Guosheng and Xu Jie, deliberately inviting these celebrities and politicians here, just to force herself to give Xu Zhiyan a promise at this time, just like Gu Guosheng threatened, if Gu Xiu messed up this matter, there would be a problem on Yun Ling's side.

Damn, he Gu Xiu took every precaution, but he didn't expect Xu Zhiyan and Gu Guosheng, the old fox, to join forces to calculate himself!

Perhaps sensing Gu Xiu's looseness, Xu Zhiyan let go of him, she blinked and wiped away her tears with the people in the audience, and then took Gu Xiu's hand.

"The person you like is something you have to fight for." Xu Zhiyan raised his chin and proudly said to everyone in the audience: "Thank you for your blessings, Gu Xiu and I will definitely be happy." ”

Hearing this, Zhong Qing felt that her world had suddenly collapsed, but she was still able to calmly put the cup on the table and calmly turn away.

Xu Ruo didn't know anything about what happened today, so when he saw Gu Xiu on stage kissing and hugging Xu Zhiyan, he really thought that the two of them came together because they were in love.

Then Xu Ruo turned his head and saw Zhong Qing leaving, and he immediately chased after him.

Gu Xiu didn't know what Xu Zhiyan beside him was talking about at all, his hand was stiff like an iron block, and when he saw Zhong Qing leaving, he subconsciously wanted to chase after him, but Xu Zhiyan grabbed his arm first.

"Uncle Gu said that he had already sent someone to the hospital." Xu Zhiyan said: "Gu Xiu, I know that you will hate me if you do this, but as long as I can get you, even if it is only now, I am willing." ”

Gu Xiu turned his head to look at Xu Zhiyan, and there was no longer affection between old friends in his eyes, but a deep disgust and disgust. Xu Zhiyan's heart fell to the bottom, as early as when she planned all this with Gu Guosheng and Xu Jie, she had expected such an ending, but when the ending really happened, she still couldn't control the heartache.

"Xu Zhiyan." Gu Xiu said in the most ruthless tone in his life: "You really make me feel disgusting. ”

At this time, the lights in the banquet hall turned on, Xu Zhiyan followed Gu Xiu off the stage, Gu Xiu shook off Xu Zhiyan's hand, maybe someone saw this scene, but no one dared to say anything.

"You're my fiancé." Xu Zhiyan held back his tears and said stubbornly: "Even if you don't admit it, everyone thinks so, if you want to chase Zhong Qing again, it's best to think about the consequences of your doing this." ”

Gu Guosheng and Xu Jie walked towards Gu Xiu, and the two of them blocked Gu Xiu's way without saying a word.

"Are you happy with the result?" Gu Xiu said: "Mr. Xu, you warned me to stay away from your daughter before, and I did it, but what about you now?" What are you doing? ”

Xu Jie looked at Gu Xiu unhappily, Gu Guosheng said: "This matter is something we discussed, Gu Xiu, whether you want it or not, marrying Xu Zhiyan is your best choice, you are the child of the Gu family, and marriage is not up to you." ”

"That's not up to you, either." Gu Xiu said: "Don't flaunt yourself as a 'father', Gu Guosheng, I don't know you that well, you have never been my father, and you are not qualified to arrange everything for me!" ”
