Chapter 10: Watching the Theater
Lu Ziqing clenched her teeth and said indignantly: "The trick of wanting to catch the old indulgence is really slippery." β
"This new drama is sponsored by ROI Company, if Mr. Sheng changes his mind at this time, it will not be easy for us to get the heroine, right?" Kobayashi looked worried.
"Do you need to say that?" Lu Ziqing's tone was very stinky.
She still didn't believe it, she had been by Sheng Tianyou's side for so long, and she couldn't compare to Gu Qiongyi, a cold slut. According to her understanding of Sheng Tianyou, there will always be a way for Gu Qiongyi to enter Sheng Tianyou's blacklist.
In the banquet hall, there were already a lot of people. The lighting is bright and the dΓ©cor is luxurious. Men in suits and leather shoes, ladies in elegant long skirts, each holding a wine glass, smiling like a flower in front of the dining table, staggered.
Beneath these masks of hypocrisy, they all carry their own purposes.
"Who's coming to the banquet today?" Gu Qiongyi stood beside Sheng Tianyou and asked Sheng Tianyou in a low voice.
Sheng Tianyou turned his head to look at Gu Qiongyi: "You are my assistant, shouldn't I ask you about such a trivial matter?" β
"You ......" Gu Qiongyi was blocked back by Sheng Tianyou's words, and said unhappily: "Ming Yi gave me a temporary notice, and only sent me an email." Speaking of which, how did you become a boss? Shouldn't you have told me in advance about something like this so that I could be prepared? β
"It's me who is not good, and I won't be next time." Sheng Tianyou rubbed Gu Qiongyi's hair dotingly.
Gu Qiongyi was annoyed in her heart, there were many people standing in the hall, and she was not easy to break out.
From the time he entered the door to the present, only a few people greeted Sheng Tianyou, and it seemed that they were all boys, and they were all talking about some and some of them. There are also some people who don't take Sheng Tianyou in their eyes at all, their eyes sweep, and their eyes don't stop on Sheng Tianyou.
There are some girls who look at Sheng Tianyou from time to time.
Sheng Tianyou could bear it, took Gu Qiongyi's wrist, walked to a table and sat down, and asked Gu Qiongyi what she wanted to eat.
Gu Qiongyi frowned slightly: "Are you here to eat, or are you here to do business?" β
"Eating is also a serious thing." Sheng Tianyou took two glasses of red wine from the tray of the bartender next to him and handed one to Gu Qiongyi.
Gu Qiongyi took the wine glass, put it to her lips and took a sip, her eyes swept over the banquet hall, observing these people who came to the banquet.
She hadn't been back for five years, and she basically didn't know any of these people in the banquet hall. However, there are also a few familiar faces. For example, Sheng Tianyou's father, now the chairman of Shengshi Group, Sheng Shiguo.
There was also a young man standing beside him, Gu Qiongyi asked Sheng Tianyou: "That person is your brother?" β
Sheng Tianyou's gaze followed Gu Qiongyi's gaze, nodded, and said 'um'.
Gu Qiongyi fell into deep thought, goodbye, twenty years, right? I didn't expect him to become unrecognizable.
Thinking of what happened between the two of them, Gu Qiongyi smiled on the corner of her lips.
"You look good when you smile, you still have to smile more in the future, don't keep a strained face." Sheng Tianyou's voice sounded in his ears.
Gu Qiongyi's face instantly returned to its usual indifference.
In the crowd, Gu Qiongyi saw a familiar face again, and she frowned slightly.
Isn't that uncle?
But when she went to her uncle's house just now, her aunt clearly said that her uncle was on a business trip.
When Gu Qiongyi looked at her uncle Qian Anbang, he also looked over this way. I don't know if I saw her, but my uncle, who was originally laughing and talking with the people next to him, changed his face instantly. Then, he turned his gaze away and turned his back to Gu Qiongyi.
Gu Qiongyi fell into deep thought.
Two hours ago, my aunt said that my uncle was out of town on a business trip, and I happened to see him at this banquet two hours later.
Could it be that my aunt is lying?
But why did she lie? Don't you want Gu Qiongyi to meet her uncle?
Thinking so in her heart, Gu Qiongyi stood up from her seat. Holding a wine glass, he walked towards the side of Tilt Anbang.
Beside her, Sheng Tianyou got up and followed her.
Gu Qiongyi glanced at him and asked puzzledly, "What are you doing?" β
"Watching a play."
It just so happened that the uncle turned around, Gu Qiongyi didn't pay attention to Sheng Tianyou anymore, with a smile on her face, she walked in front of Qian Anbang.
"Uncle." Gu Qiongyi greeted Qian Anbang with a smile.
There was a look of surprise on his face, and he asked, "Yiyi?" How did you get back? β
This sentence made Gu Qiongyi feel even more wrong. He asks 'how did you come back', not 'when did you come back'. It sounded like he didn't want Gu Qiongyi to come back.
It's just that my aunt has a cold attitude, after all, there is no blood relationship, but why is my uncle's attitude different from before?
When Qian Anbang saw Sheng Tianyou standing beside Gu Qiongyi, the smile on his face was a little stiff.
"God bless, you and Yiyi?"
God forbid?
Gu Qiongyi looked at Sheng Tianyou beside her, and glanced at Anbang again. Are they familiar with each other? When I went to my uncle's house in the afternoon, my aunt obviously didn't want Gu Qiongyi to work next to Sheng Tianyou, and at that time, Gu Qiongyi thought that there was any conflict between my uncle's family and the Sheng family, but now it seems that things are not as simple as she thought.
Sheng Tianyou grabbed Gu Qiongyi's shoulder, Gu Qiongyi had already sensed his intentions, and stepped to the side first, avoiding Sheng Tianyou's touch.
She looked at Tilt Anbang and explained truthfully: "I am Mr. Sheng's assistant. β
"Assistant?" Qian Anbang looked at Gu Qiongyi inquiringly.
Such a gaze made Gu Qiongyi feel uncomfortable, and she always felt that her uncle's attitude towards her now was like looking at an outsider. But they're obviously a family.
"Uncle, haven't you been on a business trip lately?" Gu Qiongyi remembered her aunt's words and asked tentatively.
Qian Anbang nodded subconsciously, and then shook his head again: "I have been running business outside a lot for the past two days, and I haven't been home for a few days." β
Gu Qiongyi returned to her previous indifferent expression, and the smile returned to her face. She nodded and said to Tilt Anbang: "Grandpa died suddenly, and the company's affairs have bothered you. β
"It was all supposed to be what I was supposed to do, but I just took over a few years early." With a light smile on his face, he looked a little detached.
Gu Qiongyi remembered her plan B and wanted to talk to her uncle alone for a while. But there were too many people in the banquet hall, and she couldn't find a suitable opportunity for a while.
Qian Anbang looked at a person not far away, raised his glass to the other party, and said to Gu Qiongyi apologetically: "There is an acquaintance over there, I'll go over and have a look first." β
After speaking, Tan Anbang turned to leave.
The smile on Gu Qiongyi's face also disappeared after Tan Anbang turned around.
Gu Qiongyi asked Sheng Tianyou beside her: "Are you familiar with my uncle?" β
"What's wrong?"
"It's nothing, you go first." Gu Qiongyi walked away.
"Why are you going?" Sheng Tianyou was still by Gu Qiongyi's side.
Gu Qiongyi was a little irritable now, looking at the man sticking to her, she couldn't suppress her anger: "You are a general manager, can you do something serious?" Why do you keep following me? β
"I ......"
Sheng Tianyou wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Gu Qiongyi: "If I go to the bathroom, will Mr. Sheng follow?" β
After speaking, she walked straight in the direction of the bathroom alone.
Sheng Tianyou stood in place, looking at Gu Qiongyi's annoyed and departing figure, and shook his head with a helpless smile: "The temper is still so irritable." β
