Under the bright crystal lamp in the celebration banquet hall, Xie Qingying, the niece of Prime Minister Xie Beichen, wore a royal blue mermaid evening dress, revealing one of her fair shoulders, and an Indian-style ruby necklace hanging around her neck.
Her eyes are also larger, and she wears thicker eye makeup, which makes her eyes even bigger. She looks a bit like a white beauty from the Indian Brahmin caste.
Holding a red wine glass in his hand, he was talking to a group of handsome men and women surrounding him.
Gu Nianzhi looked at the little black dress she was wearing and felt that it seemed a little disrespectful.
If she wanted to find a chance to talk to Xie Qingying among those upper-class men and women surrounded by pearls, her dress was really not good enough.
But now it's too late to go back and change clothes.
And she didn't want to be in the limelight before, so she didn't bring any big-name customized evening gowns.
what should I do
Holding a glass of orange juice, she pretended to be casual and walked over to Xie Qingying.
She just wanted to find an opportunity that would allow her to talk to Xie Qingying in a natural way.
Standing about three meters away from Xie Qingying, Gu Nianzhi saw that the people around her seemed to be dispersing, and hurriedly walked forward.
As a result, after only a few steps, a group of people rushed up from behind and pushed her to the back without being able to see her.
"Hey! What are you doing? Rushing to reincarnate?" Gu Nianzhi was pushed by a young man and staggered, almost falling to the ground.
The man looked back at her and saw that she was wearing ordinary clothes and no expensive jewelry. Although she had a hot figure and a pretty face, she was not qualified to hear his apology.
He glanced at her and had already squeezed to Xie Qingying's side. He showed her a generous and decent smile, and behaved in a smart and polite manner, as if the rude man who just bumped into others casually to squeeze in front didn't exist at all.
Gu Nianzhi twitched his lips, picked up his cell phone, and casually took a photo of the man's appearance.
A gentleman's revenge is never too late.
She was Gu Nianzhi who was determined to retaliate.
After waiting for a while, the group of people dispersed, and Gu Nianzhi quickly walked over to Xie Qingying.
Unexpectedly, within a few steps, another group of people surrounded her from behind and passed her.
This time, it was a young woman wearing a custom-made Dior evening gown who squeezed her out.
Not only did he reach out and pull her away, he also seemed to step on her.
Gu Nianzhi had never experienced such a scene. She had never attended such occasions when she was with Huo Shaoheng before.
She had attended such banquets when she was with He Zhichu in the United States, but when He Zhichu was around, others would come to fawn over them, so there was no need for her to go to them as eagerly as she did now.
Gu Nianzhi was too lazy to take pictures of the woman stepping on her feet with her phone.
There are too many of these, can she choose
Although Gu Nianzhi was tall and beautiful, in the eyes of this group of snobs who only respected clothes but not people, she was not qualified to talk to Xie Qingying.
She had no choice but to walk around with a glass of orange juice, waiting for a chance to jump over.
Lu Jin and Lu Yuan stood in a VIP room on the second floor, waiting for the official start of the celebration banquet to go down and speak.
Through the large glass windows of the VIP room on the second floor, you can see everything in the lobby on the first floor.
Ever since Lu Jin came in, he had never taken his eyes off Gu Nianzhi, who was wearing a little black evening dress in the lobby on the first floor.
He observed her for nearly ten minutes and asked Lu Yuan in confusion: "... Why do you think Nianzhi kept circling within a radius of two meters with Xie Qingying as the center of the circle?"
Lu Yuan: "..."
In fact, I don’t want to answer this kind of mathematical problem in daily life.
But Lu Jin looked at him eagerly, obviously hoping that he could answer this question.
Lu Yuan could only lower his eyelids and said, "Isn't it obvious? She wanted to talk to Xie Qingying. But she couldn't squeeze in, so she had to circle outside."
Lu Jin immediately put down the red wine glass in his hand and pulled the tie around his neck with his hand. His face was very ugly: "... Why doesn't Xie Qingying talk to her? Nianzhi is the most beautiful girl among all the guests today, and she is also the most polite. The little girl. She doesn't talk to her, but talks and laughs with those idiots. - Why do you invite such a brainless socialite?"
Lu Yuan: "..."
Why is Xie Qingying so brainless
He graduated from the School of Journalism and Communication of Q University in China with a bachelor's degree and Columbia University in the United States with a master's degree in media. After returning to China, he founded a new media company. Not only does he come from a good family background, but he is also very capable.
Lu Yuan has dealt with Xie Qingying several times and knows that she is not superficial and has a good temperament. —A hundred times better at dealing with people than this man who always despises other people's intelligence.
Of course, Lu Yuan knew that in Lu Jin's opinion, anyone who didn't talk to Gu Nianzhi today was a retarded person with no vision and would not accept refutation.
When he saw Gu Nianzhi being pushed aside for the third time, Lu Jian couldn't stand it anymore.
"You go down and let Xie Qingying go talk to Nian Zhi." Lu Jin was so irritated that he pushed Lu Yuan, "otherwise I go down by myself, are you afraid?!"
Lu Yuan stared at him, "Are you threatening me?"
"Well, I'm threatening you." Lu Jin said matter-of-factly, "If you don't go down, don't blame me if I go down and talk nonsense."
"You know you can't speak?" Lu Yuan couldn't help but laugh at him, "But you still have self-awareness."
Lu Yuan couldn't stand the pitiful appearance of Gu Nianzhi being squeezed out of the crowd again and again. He looked at the hall on the first floor and muttered: "Why is Nianzhi's combat power so weak..."
"What are you talking about?" Lu Jian pricked up his ears and said displeasedly: "I think he is polite and well-educated, not like those uneducated rough people..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Nianzhi suddenly exerted his strength, quietly stretched out his leg, and tripped a young man who was trying to drag her behind.
Then she quickly hid in the crowd like no one else and continued to squeeze towards Xie Qingying.
Lu Yuan looked at Lu Jin, "... Polite? Well-educated? How are you like those uneducated rough people...?"
Lu Jin grabbed the back of the chair with both hands, stared blankly for a while, and then smiled brightly: "It's okay, okay, look at how skilled she is! She's also very smart, she sneaked into the crowd without anyone seeing her."
"Hey! You and I have both seen it!" Lu Yuan glared at Lu Jin, "You are so blind."
As he said that, he quickly opened the door and went out.
He had a premonition.
If he doesn't go down and help, I don't know what new evil moths Lu Yuan and Gu Nianzhi will create...
…
Lu Yuan is the president and chairman of the Lu Group. When he appeared, many people's eyes lit up and they wanted to gather around him immediately.
But Lu Yuan also has bodyguards around him, and he is not alone.
In the bustling and well-dressed hall on the first floor, the crowd separated into a lane, watching Lu Yuan walk among them with a smile, and finally came to a beautiful girl wearing a black dress.
"Lawyer Gu." Lu Yuan stretched out his hand, "I'm very happy that you can come to this celebration banquet today."
Gu Nianzhi: "???"
What is this operation
But when she glanced wide, she happened to see Xie Qingying looking over. With a sudden thought, she subconsciously reached out and took Lu Yuan's hand, and said with a smile: "Mr. Lu, you are too polite."
Lu Yuan smiled slightly, leaned over, leaned into her ear, and said, "Someone saw that you wanted to talk to Miss Xie, so they sent me down to attract attention."
Gu Nianzhi laughed, "Mr. Lu, you really know how to joke."
How did they know she wanted to talk to Xie Qingying
Is it that obvious
Lu Yuan showed such familiarity with Gu Nianzhi that Gu Nianzhi suddenly became the most watched guest in the hall.
The group of people surrounding Xie Qingying just now tended to move towards Gu Nianzhi.
Gu Nianzhi didn't want to be surrounded by this group of people, so she hurriedly whispered to Lu Yuan: "Mr. Lu, can you introduce me to Miss Xie?"
Lu Yuan took a glass of grape juice from the waiter's tray and handed it to her, smiling and saying, "She will come by herself."
Gu Nianzhi: "..."
He silently put down the orange juice in his hand, took the grape juice from Lu Yuan's hand, and looked up again, and sure enough, Xie Qingying came over on her own.
She stretched out her hand towards Lu Yuan and said, "Uncle Lu, long time no see."
"Qingying, you are getting more and more beautiful." Lu Yuan patted her shoulder affectionately like an elder, then turned sideways and said naturally: "This is Lawyer Gu, a partner of our group's cooperative law firm. Very Young, not yet twenty years old.”
"Ah? Lawyer Gu is so powerful!" Xie Qingying raised her eyes and saw Gu Nianzhi. Her heart moved. She reached out and said, "Lawyer Gu looks familiar. Have I seen you before?"
Gu Nianzhi held her hand and said secretly, he had seen it in the opposite world...
But this was not the reason why Xie Qingying felt familiar when he saw her.
Because this Xie Qingying is not the Xie Qingying in the opposite world, and I have never met her.
But why do you think she looks familiar
Is it a close match
Lu Yuan looked at Xie Qingying, then at Gu Nianzhi, and said meaningfully: "Didn't you two look in the mirror?"
"What's wrong?" Gu Nianzhi and Xie Qingying asked in unison.
"Haha, I'm just talking casually." Lu Yuan didn't say anything, and took the arms of the two girls casually, "You guys have a good chat, I have something else to do, see you later."
As the CEO of tonight's celebration banquet, Lu Yuan was able to spare these few minutes, which was a great honor to them.
Gu Nianzhi and Xie Qingying nodded to him together and watched him leave.
After Lu Yuan left, Xie Qingying looked at Gu Nianzhi and found that her nose looked very similar to hers. They were both straight and straight, and the wings of her nose were small and delicate, just like measuring them with a ruler.
Moreover, both of them had long eyelashes and big eyes, with curved eyebrows and handsome faces. Gu Nianzhi's eyes were even bigger.
There are indeed some similarities.
Gu Nianzhi didn't care to look at Xie Qingying, smiled and exchanged a few words, and then suddenly asked: "Miss Xie, is your name Gu Tian?"
Xie Qingying was startled for a moment and nodded, "Yes, do you recognize my mother?"
Gu Nianzhi was nervous and excited at the same time, so he added, "Then do you have an uncle named Gu Xiangwen?"
Xie Qingying frowned, and her face gradually became extremely cold.
She lowered her head to take a sip of red wine and said expressionlessly: "Well, but he is already dead."
He looked like he really didn't want to talk anymore.
"Miss Gu, I have something else to do..." Xie Qingying obviously didn't want to mention this person and turned to leave.
Gu Nianzhi's eyes darkened, and he immediately understood what Xie Qingying meant.
Is it because her father, Gu Xiangwen, was once a wanted criminal related to a murder case
So she doesn't want to mention this person at all
Seeing another group of people surrounding Xie Qingying, Gu Nianzhi ran a few steps to follow and asked nervously: "Miss Xie, does your Xie family have an aunt named Xie Ziyan? Do you know where she is now? "
"Xie Ziyan?" Xie Qingying's footsteps suddenly stopped. She quickly looked back at Gu Nianzhi and asked suspiciously: "How do you know the name of my great-aunt?"
"Tell me, where is she now? I have a friend who wants to find her..." Gu Nianzhi stared at Xie Qingying eagerly, and his hands began to tremble.
Seeing how eager she was, Xie Qingying felt a little soft-hearted, and gently held her hand, "Miss Gu, I don't know why your friend wanted to find my aunt, but she went to the Soviet Union in her early years, and then lost contact with her family. It’s been decades since I got up.”
"Goed to the Soviet Union?" Gu Nianzhi frowned, "Then is she alive or..."
"It's hard to say." Xie Qingying sighed slightly, "As a family, of course we hope that she is still alive, but she has experienced that war, so basically, the possibility of her surviving is slim."
Gu Nianzhi carefully analyzed Xie Qingying's words and pondered: "What you mean is that you don't know whether she is alive or dead."
"If she is alive, why hasn't she contacted her family for so many years?" Xie Qingying asked, "In the early years, our family sent people to the Soviet Union to investigate her whereabouts, but no definite response could be found."
