Chapter 18

Views:

As the only girl of this generation of the Jing family, Jing Ruo, even though she is not the Jing family's biological child, the Jing family really feels sorry for her in their hands.

When she came back from abroad, the Jing family held a welcome banquet for her alone. The banquet was held at the Jinnian Hotel, the most luxurious hotel in the imperial capital.

According to the current development trend of the Jing family, most famous people in the imperial capital will come to support it.

Gu Jin ate something to cushion his stomach in advance, because at such a high-end banquet, eating too much would not only make people laugh, but would also affect the intimate dress he was wearing.

It took more than an hour for Gu Jin to dress himself up and put a lot of effort into styling it.

According to her idea, she was just there to serve as a foil today. She didn't need to dress up to impress, as long as she didn't lose face, otherwise it would be bad if she stole the limelight from her master.

But now, she touched the dress in her hand and sighed.

The dress that Mu Mingcheng had sent to her, as well as the matching bag, shoes and jewelry, were all worth it. If she didn't have a millionaire, she wouldn't be able to afford them. It really made her unable to keep a low profile even if she wanted to.

However, I have to say that this outfit fits her aesthetic perfectly. After putting on the dress and turning around in front of the mirror, Gu Jin sighed that this was such a sweet trouble.

At six o'clock in the afternoon, as the sky gradually darkened, Gu Jin walked out of the apartment building.

The high heels clicked on the stairs. She held the white clutch bag and secretly guessed in her mind what mood Mu Mingcheng had in sending these ten centimeter high heels.

A black car parked downstairs early, showing extreme luxury in a low-key manner.

Gu Jin paused and adjusted his facial expression.

Seeing a woman in gorgeous clothes approaching, the front door of the car opened, and the driver, Lao Liu, who had met Gu Jin once, got out of the car.

"Miss Gu, Mr. Mu is in a hurry. Let me take you there first. He will arrive later." Driver Liu said straightforwardly. He did not look away and did not care at all that the woman in front of him was a lively beauty.

"It's okay," Gu Jin bowed and sat in the back seat, smiling and saying, "Sorry, Brother Liu."

"How long have Brother Liu been with Mr. Mu?" she asked suddenly.

Brother Liu concentrated on driving and replied: "Almost five years."

Five years!

Gu Jin secretly thought that Mu Mingcheng had only inherited the Mu family for three years.

The car drove forward smoothly. It was time to get off work, and the wide roads in the imperial capital could not accommodate the endless traffic. Even though I was riding in a car with performance comparable to that of a sports car, I was stuck in a traffic jam and lost my temper.

Cheng Xin called to urge, "Xiao Jin, the banquet is about to start, why haven't you arrived yet?"

"There's a bit of a traffic jam on the road. I'll be there in about ten minutes." Gu Jin asked the driver and replied.

"Okay, hurry up and call me when you get there."

Ten minutes later, the car arrived at the banquet location.

Gu Jin got out of the car and walked to the hotel.

When we got to the gate, the party hadn't started yet. Showing the invitation to the doorman, she went straight in.

People were coming and going in the magnificent hall, the luxurious crystal chandeliers on several floors were shining brightly, and many guests had already arrived. Under the bright light, people are dressed in fragrant clothes and having a feast.

Soothing music was playing in the hall, and male and female guests were coming and going. No matter what these people are like behind the scenes, at least at the moment, they are all personable, elegant, and chatting and laughing.

Waiters wearing white clothes and black trousers walked among the crowd holding trays, serving drinks to the guests.

When Gu Jin entered the door, she wore a burgundy off-shoulder fishtail skirt and exquisite makeup, attracting the attention of countless men and women. Either she was shocked or jealous, and the leering eyes lingered on her.

She squeezed her handbag tightly and looked around without saying a word.

The waiter passed by her, Gu Jinshun took a glass of juice and sat down in a quiet corner away from the venue to sip it.

She didn't inform Cheng Xin that she had arrived. Anyway, if Mu Mingcheng couldn't come today, she could just go through the motions as a passerby and escape unscathed.

But her wish was doomed to fail.

Someone came to talk to her with a smile: "Which family does this beautiful girl belong to? Why did she come to the banquet alone?"

Gu Jin turned around and saw that the person who came was about forty years old, wearing black-rimmed glasses, a suit and leather shoes, and a gentle smile, like a trustworthy elder.

If his sticky gaze didn't always glance at her slightly exposed chest while talking, it would really make people think that he cared about her.

Gu Jin smiled slightly, and his cold face suddenly became so beautiful that the man's eyes widened.

She said: "Thank you for your concern, uncle. My boyfriend will be here soon."

"... You're welcome." The man choked at being called uncle, his face changed slightly, and then he continued to smile and stretched out his hand: "My surname is Zhao, and I run an entertainment company. I think you have good conditions to be a star, girl. Do you want to leave your contact information?”

The man thought that he had never seen this woman at a circle party before. She said she was brought to a high-end banquet by her boyfriend, who could easily leave her alone.

Thinking about it, she hooked up with a rich second generation because of her young figure and appearance. This kind of person will definitely not let go of the opportunity to become famous and make money.

In that case, hehe.

Gu Jin looked at his neat hair, lowered his eyelids, smiled and didn't answer.

Boss Zhao was still stretching his hand, but suddenly he heard a "Hey!" and his hand was pinched so hard that the bones were about to break.

"Oh? Do you want my girlfriend's contact information?" A cold voice came from behind him, "I have it too, why don't I give it to you."

Mu Mingcheng had a cold expression on his face and looked past him at the glamorous woman opposite him.

Boss Zhao’s bones are hard as he is getting older, and his hands are sore from being twisted. He turned around and was about to curse when he saw the face of the man wearing white clothes and white trousers, and he suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.

"Yes, I'm sorry, I didn't know that this lady was yours, Mr. Mu." His tone was trembling, "You don't remember the faults of villains, please spare me this time."

"Go away, if you appear in front of me again, you will take your small entertainment company and disappear immediately." Mu Mingcheng let go with a cold snort, and threw Boss Zhao a few meters away.

Boss Zhao didn't even dare to let go of a fart, he even rolled and crawled away.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Someone who knew him almost ran away when he saw his glasses, and hurriedly pulled him to ask.

Boss Zhao smiled with a pale face: "I have a stomachache. I was in a hurry today and forgot to bring my medicine. I'm going back first."

With that said, he hurried out of the hall.

The place just now was deserted, and no one saw that scene. The man was not suspicious and continued to find someone to talk to.

Both he and Boss Zhao were from small companies, and they tried their best to get the Jing family's invitation. In this vantage point, as long as they can hook up with a big shot, it will be an opportunity for their company to go further.

Leaving the show because of a small stomachache

What a fool!

They were the only two people left in the corner.

Gu Jin was not disappointed if his hopes failed, and his eyes paused for a second on his burgundy tie. Then he turned around and sat on the sofa, shook the goblet filled with juice, and tugged at the corner of his mouth: "It's just a small role, Mr. Lao Dangmu is so grand?"

"It's just an ordinary little role. Who would let him try to get his hands on my baby?" Mu Mingcheng sat down next to her and looked at her deeply.

He had good taste, and the burgundy dress highlighted her milky white skin under the light. The sloping shoulder fishtail style perfectly outlines her beautiful figure. Coupled with the starry diamond necklace around her neck and the white bag in her hand, she was dignified and bright, cool and mixed with a touch of tenderness, which fit his imagination of women.

The movement of Gu Jin's hand stopped. She was successfully disgusted by Mu Mingcheng's 'darling' again, and the juice struggled not to rush out of her throat.

The corner of her mouth twitched, and she was confused. If a person like Mu Mingcheng came to the Jing family, there wouldn't be any fluctuations, right

As if he could see her doubts, Mu Mingcheng took the initiative to explain: "I came from the back door, no one saw me yet."

Then why did you find me here like you had a dog's nose

Gu Jin wanted to ask, but at this moment, the banquet was about to begin.
